Chapter 176: Class C changes to Class A

Chapter 176 Class C changes to Class A

The way back is faster than the escort, because the speed of the carriage cannot keep up with the ninjas.

Mu Yue and others returned to Konoha in the afternoon.

“Everyone, let’s disperse first. There will be no training or tasks today. We will rest for half a day and gather at the training ground on the 26th tomorrow morning.” Mu Yue said.

In order to return to Konoha as soon as possible, Mu Yue led them on a very fast march, basically rushing except for eating.

The reason for returning to Konoha in such a hurry is not for anything else, but to explode Metkai gold coins, oh no, to celebrate Metkai's birthday.

Metkai's birthday is January 1st. If Muyue doesn't speed up, January 1st may just happen to be back in Konoha, and the arrangements may be a little hasty.

“Well, I’m finally back. It’s so boring to keep traveling.” Obito stretched and complained.

For him, being on the road all the time is a constant exercise in running.

“Kakashi, do you want to run backwards in the competition?” Metkai was still full of energy and invited Kakashi with a big smile and a thumbs up.

"Excuse me for refusing, I'm a little tired." Kakashi refused directly, a trace of exhaustion flashed in his eyes.

It was not that he was too tired from the journey, but that he was mentally tired. Since the fierce battle that night, Kakashi thought a lot.

 Is Mu Yue an excellent ninja? It seems so. Putting aside the strength, we can tell from the attitude of the Third Hokage. Mu Yue said that he believed in the students' strength, so the Third Hokage gave them the authority to perform C-level tasks.

Mu Yue once said that his idol is White Fang, his father Hatake Sakumo.

 Judging from Mu Yue’s actions, they have similar beliefs and believe that companions are very important.

But if the lives of his companions were really more important than the mission, why did his father suffer so much criticism when he saved his companions? Even the rescued people stood up and criticized him.

For a moment, Kakashi really didn’t understand who was at fault, whether it was his father, the village, or who...

If his father was wrong, why would he still be admired by an outstanding ninja like Mu Yue? If his father was right, why would he end up like this?

"Kakashi, you just can't do it. You're tired. I can still run a hundred times around Konoha!" Obito said proudly.

“No wonder you would...”

Hearing Obito talk about that night's battle again, Kakashi couldn't hold back. He was only controlled by Troy for more than ten minutes that night. He felt that Obito could grasp this for more than ten weeks. .

"One hundred laps, right? Let's run. The loser will shut up and not speak for a day!" Kakashi said with a dark face.

Obito didn't expect that Kakashi actually agreed. He got excited when he saw Kakashi didn't agree to Metkai. It was actually quite tiring to travel for so long, and Konoha is not small, even if it is just along the edge of the main city. Even running a hundred laps is a long way.

"Come on, come on, whoever is afraid of whom." Obito replied bravely, feeling guilty but he had to be tough when facing Kakashi.

“Can’t you run upside down?” Metkai scratched his head and felt a little regretful.

Mu Yue smiled happily when she saw the disciples rolled up without rest, then turned and walked towards the Hokage Building.

After arriving at the Hokage Building, Mu Yue did not go to the mission hall, but went directly to the Hokage's office.

"Come in." Hiruzen Sarutobi said after hearing the knock on the door.

When the door opened, Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head and asked with a smile: "It's Muyue, what's the matter?"

“Sandaime-sama, our team accepted a mission to **** the client to Tian Country a few days ago. After entering Tian Country, we met several ninjas dressed as Iwagakure ninjas..."

Mu Yue reported the unexpected incident encountered during this mission to the third generation.

However, he hid some details of the battle, such as the magnetic escape ninja and the ninjutsu he released.

In Mu Yue’s description, the enemy was one jounin and seven chunin, and Mu Yue and the others protected their client with great difficulty and achieved victory.

“Before they were killed by me, those ninjas were clamoring that Iwagakure would take revenge, but most of the Iwagakure team mastered the Thunder Release. This is very suspicious,” Mu Yue said.

"The Iwagakure ninja who uses Thunder Release..." Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into thinking.

It does look a lot like Kumogakure trying to intensify the war between Iwagakure and Konoha, but Hiruzen Sarutobi thought a little more, could it be Iwagakure pretending to be Kumogakure, trying to intensify Konoha? The war between Ye and Kumogakure.

It is not impossible. There are very few people in Yanyin who can escape from lightning, but they are not zero.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly rejected this idea. Even if the enemy wanted to use this strategy to mislead, they would not send such a team of ninjas to fight Muyue's class.

Because an ordinary four-person class has no chance of fighting a team of seven jounin and seven chuunin.

"Here are the corpses of those ninjas, but because the battle is more dangerous, two of the corpses have been burned to the point of being inhuman shape by my fire escape." Mu Yue said.

For living people, Konoha can directly check the memory through the secret techniques of the Yamanaka clan. For preserved dead people, professional researchers can also decipher some information, such as what kind of training they have received and what they usually practice.

Knowing this, Mu Yue deliberately touched up Troy's body so that there was no way to get information from it.

"It's okay. As long as there are well-preserved corpses, you can tell which ninja village it belongs to." Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said. He could understand this. After all, it was a life-and-death fight, and it was impossible to think about keeping all the other party's corpses.

"If this matter is as you guessed, then Mu Yueqi has really made a big contribution and cracked Kumogakure's conspiracy." Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a satisfied smile.

His expectation was that Mu Yue could bring Kakashi back to normal, but he didn't expect Mu Yue to give him an unexpected surprise.

Although this incident cannot allow them to cease fighting with Iwagakure and attack Kumogakure together, it can at least prevent Iwagakure and Kumogakure from joining forces.

"Since we met so many ninjas, it's not appropriate to do a C-level mission." Sandai took out a sheet and quickly wrote some words and stamped it.

"I changed this commission to an A-level mission. In addition to the original 70,000 taels, the village will give another 730,000 taels as the task bounty." Sarutobi Hiruzen handed the written form to Mu Yue said.

The amount of A-level tasks ranges from 150,000 taels to 1 million taels, and the A-level tasks of 800,000 taels are already top-level tasks.

“Thank you, Lord Sandaime.” Mu Yue smiled and thanked.

"The sealing technique we agreed on before was placed with Minato. When I sent it there, you were on a mission and you happened to be met by Minato, so Minato put it away for you." Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded.

Mu Yue’s face showed a grateful smile again.

“Sure enough, the more difficult the task, the higher the reward.” After leaving the Hokage Building, Mu Yue thought while looking at the reward information on the system.
