Chapter 42 - Chapter 42: Land of Waves Mission?

Ge Liang did not show any difference regarding Yakushi Kabuto's arrival. Whether he was a spy or whether he bothered Konoha had nothing to do with Ge Liang.

As long as Yakushi Kabuto didn't provoke him, he wouldn't deliberately target anyone.

'Speaking of which, since Yakushi Kabuto is here, will Orochimaru come?'

Ge Liang thought for a moment. As long as Yakushi Kabuto fully reported the wonders of the Internet Cafe to Orochimaru, the chance of Orochimaru showing up was quite high.

'However, even if Orochimaru comes, it's no big deal.'

As long as they didn't cause trouble in the Internet Cafe, everything would be fine. But if they did want to cause trouble, Danzo, who was still lying under the bed in his room, was a perfect example of what would happen to troublemakers.

An hour later, Yakushi Kabuto logged off, greeted Ge Liang, and left the Internet Cafe... Naruto was as energetic as ever today.

When they left the Internet Cafe yesterday, Kakashi had already told the three of them how to obtain the Sword Control Technique.

Naruto really wanted to learn the Sword Control Technique, which allowed one to fly on a sword.

Unfortunately, even if he learned the Sword Control Technique in the game, he would still have to Cultivate it again in reality.

Moreover, even if he successfully Cultivated it in reality, he would still need to buy a beginner magic sword to fly.

Many Jonin thought the price of the beginner magic sword was very affordable.

But for Genin like Naruto, it was a terrible price.

Even though Team 7 completes ten d-rank missions every day, their daily reward is still two to three hundred thousand Ryo.

This amount of remuneration is even more than that of a B-Rank Mission.

However, despite the high daily reward, the money must be equally divided among the rest of Team 7. Therefore, the money he receives daily is barely enough to cover his usage fees for the computer.

Naruto didn't know when he would be able to save enough money to buy a beginner magic sword.

"So... should I reduce the amount of time I spend playing games?"

Naruto plays games primarily to become stronger.

It's not like when the Internet Cafe first opened.

When the Internet Cafe first opened, it was still in the Novice Period, so Martial Arts (abilities) from the game could be learned directly.

But starting from *legend of sword and fairy 1*, the Internet Cafe has left the Novice Period phase. To use Spells (abilities) from all games other than *the legend of jin yong heroes* in reality, one must Cultivate them again in reality.

This made Naruto start considering reducing his gaming time.

However, regardless of whether he reduces his computer time, he still has to keep doing missions.

After tidying up, washing up, and quickly eating some bread, Naruto headed out.

Arriving at the agreed location, once all members of Team 7 had gathered, The four people went together to the Mission Hall in the Hokage Building, ready to choose and accept today's mission.

When The four people arrived at the Mission Hall and Kakashi was about to step forward to check the available missions, an Anbu member suddenly appeared next to Kakashi.

"Kakashi Hatake, Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Sakura Haruno."

"Hokage-sama requests your presence."

Hearing that the Third Hokage wanted to see them, The four people said nothing and followed the Anbu upstairs to the Hokage Office.

"Grandpa Hokage, what do you need us for? If it's nothing important, don't delay us from doing our mission."

Naruto at this time was no longer the 'idiot' he was in the original work.

Based on certain events, he already understood that the Grandpa Hokage in front of him was not as kind as he appeared.

However, although he knew this, Naruto didn't have the strength to rebel.

Therefore, in front of the Third Hokage, Naruto had to act exactly as he did before, so as not to arouse the Third Hokage's suspicion.

"I called you here, naturally, because I have a mission for you."

It was unrealistic to say that Hiruzen Sarutobi was completely unaware of Naruto's changes.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi had only experienced the game *the legend of jin yong heroes* once, and he didn't know the impact TV Shows had on people.

Even if Anbu told him about the issue with TV Shows, since he hadn't experienced it firsthand, his level of understanding would definitely differ from that of the Anbu.

Therefore, he believed that the changes appearing in Naruto were nothing to worry about.

Didn't Naruto still act the same way in front of him?

What does this show?

It showed that Naruto treated him like family and scorned hiding his emotions; he was exactly who he was supposed to be.

"Grandpa Hokage, what kind of mission is it? Tell me quickly! Is it the legendary S-Rank Mission?"

"That's right, only an S-Rank Mission is worthy of me."

"After all, I, Uzumaki Naruto, am the man who will become Hokage..."

Looking at the foolish-acting Naruto, Sasuke suddenly said with a hint of disdain, "Then do you want to become the Hokage, or the Hokage's man?"

This comment completely stunned Naruto.

Naruto: "This... this sentence can be understood that way?"

Sasuke: "That's why I say you're stupid. That's exactly how this sentence is meant to be understood."

Naruto: "Bastard Sasuke, you actually called me stupid."

Sasuke: "It's not that I called you stupid, you were born stupid."

Naruto: "Bastard! Don't anyone stop me, I'm going to punch..."

"Bang!"

Before Naruto could finish speaking, Kakashi used a 'Fist of Love' to stop Naruto's foolish behavior.

"Alright, don't be so reckless in front of Hokage-sama."

"Hokage-sama, please continue."

Seeing that Naruto had calmed down, the Third Hokage smiled kindly and said to the outside, "Come in."

As soon as the Third Hokage finished speaking, a drunken old man, reeking of alcohol, stumbled in.

"Are they... *hic*... the Ninja that Kimura arranged for me?"

Seeing that the person had entered, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately introduced him to the members of Team 7.

"This is the mission client, the Bridge Builder Expert, Mr. Tazuna."

"The mission this time is for you to protect him on his return to the Land of Waves and ensure he successfully builds the bridge."

"Since this mission has little difficulty, its Rank is only C-Rank."

"Do you have any other questions?"

When the Third Hokage finished this sentence, it meant they could leave.

Except for Naruto, the rest of Team 7 was ready to leave, but he wasn't going to leave just yet.

"Wait, Grandpa Hokage, I still have a question. You haven't mentioned the reward for this mission yet."

"Did I not mention it?"

The Third Hokage first showed a look of confusion, then pretended to suddenly remember, saying with realization, "I'm old, I'm useless. I actually forgot to mention the mission's remuneration."

"Since this is a C-Rank Mission, the remuneration is only sixty thousand Ryo."

Originally, upon hearing that the mission was only C-Rank, Naruto felt that they were going to 'lose money' this time.

But when the remuneration was confirmed to be sixty thousand, Naruto felt that this wasn't just 'losing money,' it was a 'massive loss.'
