Unless you're a Jonin, you wouldn't normally take on an S-rank mission.
"We didn't take all 80 million taels."
Kitazawa paused for a moment, then said, "Besides, money is ultimately just an external thing; strength is what truly matters."
"Ah."
Kurenai quickly returned to normal.
"Then let me investigate your progress in learning sealing techniques this week."
Kitazawa picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.
She gave him a cold look.
But she quickly got busy, taking a two-hour shower without needing to get out of bed.
The price was exhaustion; she was so weak she couldn't even walk and had to be carried back to her room by Kitazawa.
A new day, Monday.
This is also the second week of summer vacation.
After getting up and having breakfast, Kitazawa went to the ninja academy.
As for Kurenai Yuhi, she won't wake up anytime soon.
"Teacher Kitazawa!"
Hinata Hyuga was overjoyed when she saw him.
"Teacher Kitazawa, we miss you so much!"
Naruto Uzumaki greeted them excitedly.
"Yes!"
Ino Yamanaka ran up to him and asked, "Kitazawa-sensei, have you been on a mission this week?"
Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji, Kurama Yakumo, and Aburame Shino also gathered around.
Only Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno were absent.
They went to participate in Kakashi Hatake and Kosuke Maruboshi's summer training program.
"I did indeed go on a mission."
Kitazawa patted Yamanaka Ino on the head and said, "You guys continue training, I'll see if there are any problems."
"Yes, Mr. Kitazawa!"
Naruto Uzumaki, Ino Yamanaka, and the others separated again and began training.
Just then, three lines of text appeared before Kitazawa's eyes.
[Current Mission: Teach five medical ninjas how to regenerate severed limbs.]
[Mission Reward: Mastery of Yang Release Chakra Nature Transformation.]
[The host has completed the mission; reward issued.]
Has Shizune finally mastered the medical ninjutsu of limb regeneration?
Kitazawa subconsciously clenched his fist.
With mastery of Yang Release Chakra Nature Transformation, he can learn Ninjutsu: Creation Rebirth: Hundred Healings Technique even faster.
In addition, the modification of forbidden medical techniques and physical activation will be much faster.
Furthermore, after Shizune learned how to regenerate severed limbs, Kitazawa no longer needed to manage the medical ninja training program at Konoha Hospital.
He can concentrate on practicing his ninjutsu.
Kitazawa snapped out of his daze and looked at Hinata Hyuga and the others.
He didn't need to say much during most people's training, so his gaze fell on Naruto Uzumaki.
He is already very proficient in Wind Release: Shuriken and can now learn the next ninjutsu.
Kitazawa seemed to be deep in thought.
He taught Naruto Uzumaki Wind Release: Gale Palm, Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, and Wind Release: Shuriken, all to increase his ranged combat abilities.
For now, it's sufficient.
If Naruto wants to learn more advanced Wind Release techniques, he needs to improve his Wind Release chakra nature transformation level.
However, he is young and his chakra control is average, so it would be a waste of time for him to learn.
In close combat, Naruto Uzumaki has two methods.
One type is the physical techniques taught by Matt Kay.
The other one is the greatsword Samehada that Kitazawa gave him.
Naruto Uzumaki has already learned most of Might Guy's taijutsu, but he doesn't yet meet the requirements to learn the Eight Gates.
The Greatsword Samehada definitely deserves a buff.
"Naruto."
Thinking of this, Kitazawa called out.
"Teacher Kitazawa."
Naruto Uzumaki immediately ran over.
Behind him was the giant sword Samehada, hopping and chasing after him.
"You don't need to practice Wind Release for now; switch to swordsmanship instead."
Kitazawa drew Zangetsu and said, "Pick up Samehada, and I'll teach you Konoha-ryu swordsmanship."
Upon hearing this, Samehada, the greatsword, immediately jumped excitedly to Naruto's side.
Because Naruto Uzumaki doesn't use swordsmanship or knife skills at all, they are often useless.
Once it learns the Leaf Village Sword Technique, it will be able to better realize its value.
In this way, it won't be abandoned.
Kitazawa didn't do anything extra today; he just accompanied Naruto and the others during their training.
The next day, he arrived at the entertainment district of Konoha Village.
But instead of going to the flower shop in the mountains, we went to the newly opened Ocean Heart jewelry store.
When Kitazawa commissioned the Hyuga clan ninjas to create jewelry, he ordered the opening of the first jewelry shop in Konoha.
The one in charge of managing it is Rina Uzumaki.
This jewelry store is the property of Konoha Village.
"We can open for business tomorrow. Just let Tsunade-sensei know when that happens."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said.
The Ocean Heart Jewelry Shop in Konoha Village is an attached shop.
If you really want to make money, you have to look to the Ocean Heart Jewelry Store in the Fire Country Metropolis.
Therefore, Kitazawa does not intend to get involved in this matter, nor will he attend tomorrow's opening.
He plans to visit Otogakure today.
Although he already knew the situation in Otogakure, he couldn't explain himself to Tsunade if he didn't go there.
"Ok."
Rina Uzumaki nodded.
Kitazawa then arrived at the Hyuga clan's residence.
"Kitazawa!"
Hiashi Hyuga received him with great enthusiasm.
The reason is that he already knew about the news from the Fire Country's metropolis.
A necklace crafted by Hyuga Himon and his group sold for a staggering 80 million ryo.
Although the Hyuga clan only received 10%, the total income from all the necklaces that followed was still a staggering sum.
"I hope Chief Rizu will send more people."
Seeing his expression, Kitazawa guessed the reason, so he didn't waste any words and spoke directly.
"no problem!"
Hiashi Hyuga immediately agreed, saying generously, "How many people do you want? Our Hyuga clan can provide them all!"
"I plan to open an Ocean Heart jewelry store in the Fire Country Metropolis."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "Send another twelve men to this jewelry store."
"can."
With a broad smile, Hiashi Hyuga said, "I'll have them set off today."
"For specific details, you should have them contact the head of the finance department."
After explaining the situation, Kitazawa turned and left.
Hokage Building.
Xiao Nan walked into the Dark Division's office.
She hadn't gone to the Fire Country Metropolis with Kitazawa before.
After all, Tsunade's strength is undeniable, and she would notice it.
She didn't go to Otogakure with Kitazawa today either.
She came to the Dark Side office to find out what the Cardo Shipping Company and the underwater exploration team had been up to lately.
She had asked the Rain Kingdom to search for minerals last time, and the results were in: they found a silver mine.
Kakuzu has already gone to work at this silver mine.
Xiao Nan casually picked up a document from the table.
As an ANBU ninja, I am entitled to access this information.
This document is exactly what Kitazawa and Tsunade did when they went to the Metropolis of the Land of Fire.
Xiao Nan glanced at it twice and couldn't help but open her mouth wide.
Her first reaction was that those noble ladies had gone mad, actually spending 80 million taels of silver to buy a necklace.
Kitazawa, did you get this money way too easily?
Xiao Nan snapped out of her reverie, and an idea popped into her mind: Could the Land of Rain be replicated?
But she quickly shook her head.
The Land of Rain and Amegakure are both too poor; sometimes they even have to rely on funding from the Akatsuki.
And most importantly, it's a necklace.
What does this necklace look like?
Konan plans to take this opportunity to visit the Fire Country Metropolis.
Chapter 301 Akatsuki Advisor, Kitazawa
Kitazawa arrived in the Land of Fields.
The Land of Fields borders the Land of Fire, located to the north of the Land of Fire.
Previously, the Land of Rice Fields did not have any ninja villages, only a few ninja clans and ninjas. It was not until Orochimaru appeared that the Village of Sound was established.
Kitazawa continued north and soon came to the Hidden Sound Village, which Orochimaru had established.
Instead of going in directly, he went to a nearby valley.
