章 39: Chapter 39: Request to help
[TL/n: Consolation Chapters for the failed mission xD.]
[TL/n: Reaching 2k stones for another chapter.]
-----------------------
"We finally came back."
Luckily on their way back, no one ambushes them. It seems the trouble only happened on the border with ninja from the hidden mist.
At the moment he saw the gate, Akabane burst into tears.
The past few days for him almost felt like hell, and he finally returned to Konoha safely. He thought that he had to take a vacation after this.
With the Kurama Clan's trait of having a weak physique, he might succeed in getting a day off.
"Now that you have safely come back to Konoha, team 7 will disband for the time being."
After Danzo's shadow clone said that, he disappeared instantly.
The three of them looked at each other confusedly. There's an instant joy on their faces. Even the calmest person like Sakumo had a slight move on his expression.
"Ahh, I finally can take my holiday.."
As Akabane was talking, he was interrupted by Murasaki in the middle.
"No, in our best interest, I think you should start working on your comic again, Akaba-Kun."
Murasaki was serious and didn't give Akabane a chance to finish his sentence."
"That's right. I want to see the next chapter."
Sakumo also wanted to urge the next chapter as he wants to see his future "son."
"Urgh, please, I need to rest.."
"But, you can also use your clone to do the work, right?"
Murasaki shrugged, then waved goodbye.
"Just don't forget your comic."
After experience killing for the first time, Sakumo had a sudden change of presence, which made Akabane shudder.
"Hey, my Shadow Clone should take a rest too!"
Akabane felt helpless when no one believed his word. After all, the person who has no human rights in Konoha is his Shadow Clone.
…
After parting ways, Akabane saw Tsunade at a corner of the street.
Tsunade's expression was agitated and nervous, but when she saw Akabane, she sighs in relief and tried to hide her expression to remain calm.
"Oh, Have you just come back from your mission? I haven't seen you for a few days. "
"…"
Girl, the way you start a conversation is very poor.
Konoha only has a small group of genin, so it is impossible to conceal which group has a mission.
Akabane murmured silently in his heart, but considering the kindness and worry she felt, he didn't talk his thoughts out and instead replied kindly: "Yes, I just finished a mission and came back."
"I envy you. My team was only doing chores for these three days."
Tsunade sighed, feeling very disappointed.
She thought that she would immediately take a tough mission on the first day, fighting with some evil ninja from some hidden village, but the reality was she hasn't even taken the C-level mission yet, let alone leaving the village.
"Don't mention it. Running back and forth was exhausting, but if you want, you can
take my place anytime.."
Akabane said with a helpless expression, when it comes to Danzo, he can't be helped but be angry. The other teams started from the low-level mission, but they had to kill children and women on their third day.
What a Ruthless fellow!
"Ahh… I'll think about it again…"
Tsunade obviously understood Danzo's nature and definitely didn't want an exchange place with him.
Even in this period, Danzo was well known with a bad reputation.
Akabane didn't hate Danzo, but his philosophy didn't match with him after spending a few days under his wing.
He looked a little gloomy, and he walked down the street to his house, Tsunade followed behind, as if she had no other thing to do.
The way Danzo trained his disciples was way too cruel, which makes Akabane more depressed.
"By the way, when will you release the next volume? It has been five days by now, and you haven't released any new volume."
Tsunade remembered that her main purpose wasn't yet stated.
"hmm…"
Akabane felt more and more depressed.
"Also, don't forget to leave me a free chapter."
Seeing Akabane didn't respond and just kept walking, Tsunade shouted from behind.
He waved his hand weakly and left her behind.
Anyway,
Akabane needs to finish the next volume as soon as possible. Otherwise, the fans will non-stop asking him. Not to mention, Mito alone is enough to put him on the edge.
…
In the Hokage's Office.
"Groups of Ninja suddenly appeared in Uzumaki Village. They destroyed all our business and chased after us even after we passed the border!"
The caravan's leader was brought to Konoha by Danzo, slowly explaining the current situation, while there was the Third Hokage, Danzo, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado in the office listening.
This is Konoha's current highest rank of leadership.
"Where do these invaders come from? Didn't the village take any action?"
Homura's face was solemn, and at the same time, very puzzled.
Uzumaki Village has always been Konoha's main ally, and they knew how powerful the Uzumaki clan was.
This is a village of people who have extremely high talents. A small scale of invaders can't destroy them.
"There were too many of them! And we also didn't know their origin. Even after the village mobilized their army, it was still not enough, since they were outnumbered."
The caravan's leader smiled bitterly.
He got seriously injured from the battle and was treated by Konoha, otherwise, he wouldn't survive.
"So, you are asking us for aid?"
The Third Hokage wants to clarify his intention. He said it while breathing a cloud of smoke from his pipe.
"Yes, please help us, Hokage-sama, help the Uzumaki Village get rid of the invaders."
The caravan's leader knelt and pleaded bitterly.
"Does this request come on behalf of Uzumaki village?"
Danzo said coldly.
"This…this is, of course, for the sake of our village.."
The caravan's leader had cold sweat on his forehead and looked anxious.
He must be hiding something!
Danzo easily read his mind.
The Third Hokage smoked a few cigarettes and was speechless. Then Homura, who also sees through his lie, speaks: "Kazama-san, we don't want to hear lies, please answer honestly."
The four of them knew that this man hides something from them, and they wouldn't be deceived easily.
"Homura-san… I…"
"Still won't tell the truth?"
Danzo opened his eyes and burst out a murderous aura.
"Danzo, don't treat our guests like that."
The Third Hokage stopped Danzo immediately and then smiled gently and said, "Kazama-san, I think this request didn't come from Uzumaki village themselves but instead from you, right?"
"Uh.. hmm…"
Kazama looked pale and frightened, his legs trembled.
"Since this wasn't coming from Uzumaki village themself, we can't help, I'm sorry."
Homura shook his head with regret.
"Wait! But…"
"Kazama-san, since you just got here, feel free to stay here for the time being, but there is no way we can take your request officially."
The Third Hokage apologized.
Kazama had an ugly face, nodding his head heavily, and left the office.
The remaining four people sat back again, remaining silent.
"If it is not an official request, we can't risk our ninja to aid them. But…"
Homura said half a word, then hesitated to finish the sentence.
It would be a suicide mission to send their ninja there, but they knew that Uzumaki village is their most important ally.
"Let's observe him for now. There might be another plan to settle this."
After saying those words, the Third Hokage got up, sighed lightly, and left.
