Naruto: People are in Konoha, the system arrived 20 years earlier Chapter 086

Inside the Hokage’s office, besides the Third Hokage Hiruzen, three Chunin stood silently to the side.

The moment Sakumo and Hayato stepped into the room, all eyes focused on them.

“Excellent, everyone is here,” Hiruzen said slowly, then his gaze shifted to Sakumo.

The latter understood immediately and stepped forward, approaching Hiruzen.

Hiruzen picked up a scroll from his desk and handed it over.

Seeing this, Sakumo bowed slightly and solemnly received it.

“This mission is confidential, do not disclose it externally,” Hiruzen finally instructed.

Hayato, observing from the side, frowned when he heard Hiruzen utter the words “confidential mission.”

Could this be the mission that, in the original timeline, put Sakumo in a dilemma, leading him to abandon the mission to save his comrades, and eventually commit suicide due to the village’s public opinion?

While he was lost in thought, Sakumo had already accepted, returning to his side with a serious expression.

Hayato looked up at him, his eyes gradually firming.

‘I won’t let this happen!’

It wasn’t that Hayato enjoyed being a babysitter or was overly sentimental.

This person wasn’t unrelated to him; he was Hayato’s sensei, who had always treated him exceptionally well.

Hayato wasn’t some extreme cold-blooded animal.

Moreover, no matter what, he was also participating in this mission, and judging by its classification.

This mission was very likely an S-rank mission. If so, it would be Hayato’s first S-rank mission.

It would be a significant achievement for his promotion to Jonin.

After a few more instructions from Hiruzen and Sakumo, Sakumo led the group away.

The five of them arrived at an office.

To ensure the mission proceeded smoothly, everyone first exchanged information.

During this communication, Hayato learned that these three Chunin were all well-suited for infiltration missions.

One was Hyuga Yosuke of the Hyuga clan, another was Aburame Ryohei of the Aburame clan, and the last was Yamanaka Hideaki of the Yamanaka clan.

All three were experienced Chunin and came from the intelligence division.

It was evident that Hiruzen had considered everything thoroughly when selecting this team.

From another perspective, it also highlighted the importance of this mission’s objective.

Each person had their outstanding abilities and responsibilities. The three Chunin from the intelligence division all possessed their unique sensory abilities.

Additionally, Yosuke’s Byakugan could broaden the team’s field of vision.

Ryohei’s cultivated insects were better suited for infiltration operations and gathering internal enemy intelligence.

Hideaki’s Mind Reading Jutsu was crucial for understanding deeper intelligence. Of course, Hayato could also assist in this regard with his Sharingan.

In terms of combat, Sakumo and Hayato would be the primary fighters. Sakumo’s strength as an elite Jonin was self-evident.

Hayato not only had excellent combat abilities, but more importantly, he could use the Flying Thunder God.

Once they got the confidential documents, they could instantly return to the village—perfect.

“Due to the urgency of the situation, the departure time is set for tomorrow at sunrise. Any questions?”

After speaking, Sakumo surveyed the scene, awaiting everyone’s response.

In response, everyone nodded slightly.

“Alright then, in that case, everyone should hurry back and prepare,” Sakumo straightened up and said softly.

As his words fell, everyone left the meeting room.

After a brief exchange with Sakumo, Hayato went straight home.

Sakumo still had to inform Kakashi and Aoba that he wouldn’t be able to look after them for a while.

He told them to train well, and upon their return to the village, he would conduct an assessment for them.

Meanwhile, Hayato didn’t go straight home but instead went to the Elder’s house.

After the raid on the Sora Ninja Village, the Uchiha clan also gained some benefits.

Among them, a portion of the Sora Ninja Village’s ninja tools was distributed to them.

Of course, this also had something to do with the Uchiha clan’s Konoha Military Police Force.

Hayato was too lazy to spend money on ninja tools, so he went directly to the Elder.

The Elder, upon learning of the situation, didn’t hesitate and directly waved his hand, allocating a portion to Hayato.

Hayato had participated in the raid, so he already had the right to a separate share of the spoils.

As for why Hayato needed to ask the Elder for ninja tools.

It could only be said that the Flying Thunder God Jutsu indeed consumed quite a few kunai.

After getting the items, Hayato left the Elder’s house.

Walking slowly back home, the Kazama brothers weren’t home during the day; they were busy with their research.

Hayato used a portion of his last earnings to rent a shop for the two brothers nearby and purchased the equipment they needed.

After all, what could they research by staying cooped up at home?

Of course, the clan also allocated some funds for their scientific research.

Shota was also still on duty at the Military Police Force, so the entire house only had Misaki and little Shisui.

“Eh, are you leaving the village again?” Misaki was slightly surprised.

Hayato nodded slightly, “Yes, I’ll be gone for a while.”

Misaki looked at Hayato with some worry, “Hayato, why don’t you ask your father to pull some strings and get you transferred to the Military Police Force?”

Compared to the danger of missions outside the village, being a police officer in the village was certainly less risky.

A mother worries when her child travels far, it’s the same everywhere.

Hayato smiled slightly and comforted her, “Mom, don’t worry. I have my own plans.”

As for working in the Military Police Force, Hayato currently had no intention. Compared to accumulating seniority for promotion to Jonin in the Military Police Force, he preferred to accumulate achievements by performing missions.

Misaki sighed; she knew that Hayato’s decisions were difficult to change.

Then she gently rocked Shisui in her arms and spoke with a hint of regret,

“Shisui, your brother is only focused on missions and doesn’t have time to spend with you. What a poor child.”

She then gave Hayato a mock-reproachful look, “Shisui, when you grow up, don’t be like your brother.”

Hayato raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “Mom, what are you saying? It’s not a big deal.”

Then he created a Shadow Clone.

“There’s nothing one Shadow Clone can’t solve. If there is, then two.”

My lady, times have changed!

Misaki’s mouth twitched, “Who taught you all these tricks?”

Hayato laughed heartily, then leaned down and looked at Shisui in Misaki’s arms, smiling.

“Forgive me, Shisui, next time!”

Then Hayato returned to his room to mark the kunai he had just retrieved from the Elder with the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.

The next day, Hayato woke up early.

Swish. He put on his black assault jacket, slung his Elucidator over his back, and left the house directly.

He walked slowly towards the Konoha Gate.

The morning light filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows and illuminating his determined steps.

Soon after, everyone gathered at the Konoha Gate.

“Depart!”
