Chapter 53 - Bingo Book

I straight collapsed right after coming from Onoki's office to my beloved dormitory room. All of these past few weeks' stress and tensions I was holding up finally freed as soon as I touched my bed.

The next day, I wake up very late, just like all of my squad members. It was almost lunchtime when I finally opened my eyes from the dreamland.

I wanted to sleep more. But just then, I saw the messenger bird knocking my window from the balcony. It delivered the Onoki's order to gather everyone for promotion and rewards for our huge resource contribution to Iwa.

I immediately got up. Knowing that old man's temper, if we late for our promotion, Onoki would be so pissed that we were late for his order and might even demote us instead.

I first went to wake up the nearest person from me, Gari who was my neighbor. Gari was in the dreamland, just like I was expecting. I kicked him from his bed and wake him up fȯrċɨbŀƴ.

The same thing happened to both Kan and Gin, who were living upstairs. All of them looked annoyed and was even about to bite me for waking them up, but as soon as I mentioned about promotions, their attitude changed 180 degrees.

We got ready and dashed to Tsuchikage building as fast as we could.

-------------

There were several old men in Onoki's office when we are allowed to meet him. All of them were unknown faces to me. They are probably elders of Iwagakure.

Onoki looked at us for seconds and started talking.

"Ahem, I am sure you all know why you were called here. You all managed to kill Konoha's elite Jounin, Dan, take Sharingan and Bygakugan and alive Hyuga. I have talked with elders here about how we should reward you all.

Therefore, we have decided to promote you all to one rank above from your current Shinobi rank.

Gin and Kan will be Chunin from now. As for Gari, we heard your achievements along with Genji throughout the war until now. We thought about promoting you to Jounin, but leaping two ranks is unheard of in Iwa before. This is why you will be promoted to Tokubetsu Jounin (Special Jounin) first.

Genji, as the leader of the mission, you have done very well. You have successfully promoted to Jounin. Also, all four of you will receive each 10k ryo.

I hope you all will continue to do great things and Iwa proud."

""""Thank you vert much, Tsuchikage-sama!!!""""

All of us thanked Onoki for promoting us. I could see the delighted faces of my squad. I was also happy to promote as Jounin.

'Oh, yea!! Jounin at the age of 14! Normally I have to take the Jounin test to be a Jounin. But since we are in the war, I don't need to take that shit. Hehehe.'

"Also, before you all leave, We have questions for you. It's actually about Kitsuchi and Kimiko.

I wanna know your honest evaluation of their performance during the mission. After hearing your voices, I will judge whether they can become Chunin and send them to war or not." Onoki spoke to us.

I was a bit shocked to hear Onoki's words. Considering he promoted Kitsuchi as Genin while all of us were just Academy students, I thought he would just promote Kitsuchi without our opinions.

According to shinobi rule, most of the Chunin must be deployed at the frontline at least once during the war. Maybe the cruelty of war softened this old man's heart for his son??

We all answered as Kitscuhi and Kimiko are ready for Chunin and praised them well. I mean what kind of idiots who bȧrėly promoted just now, would criticize the son in front of his parents, especially when his father is Tsuchikage?

Besides, I personally think Kitsuchi and Kimiko are at least ready for Chunin. Seeing we were just bootlicking, Onoki didn't ask more and dismissed us immediately.

"Alright, alright. I heard it enough. You all dismiss! Go get your newly promoted vest downstairs. Also, Genji and Gari. You two might wanna check on Konoha's Bingo book." Onoki told us while smirking a bit.

--------------

All four of us got our respective rank vest from the first floor of Tsuchikage building. But I was more excited to see Bingo book.

Hearing Onoki, I am sure Gari and I were on the Konoha's Bingo book. I didn't know what rank I was graded on, but I sure am I excited to see. We quickly bought Konoha's Bingo book

We didn't even have to flip the book as me and Gari were on the freaking first page! What an honor!

'Holy!!! An A-rank shinobi, I am 20 million ryo!! Hehehe, not bad, not bad. I look so handsome in the picture too

They sure wrote so detail about me. But what do you mean, I good at running away? It's just a strategic retreat! Also, how come that stupid necklace is worth almost half me?

I didn't know getting wanted by other villages would make me so happy. No wonder why even Zorro got happy when he got his wanted poster, hehehe.

I don't care about Tsunade any longer. I dare her to come to Iwagakure, hehe. She will get minced by Onoki. '

While I was happy about my bounty, Gari looked a little bit upset about his bounty. I got curious and looked at his bounty page which was right next to mine.

*/

'Oh, B-rank only? 5 million? No wonder he is not happy.

Wait a minute, Gari's title is my lackey? Damn! Konoha sure is full of cunning bastards. Even using the Bingo book, they are trying to sow discord between us.'

Gin and Kan just laughed like maniacs when they saw Gari's title. Well, it is true that compared to my bounty, Gari's bounty was a bit too shit.

After having good laugh, we all four went to celebrate our promotion.
