Chapter 58 Mission Changes
Chapter 58 Mission Changes
The rest of the journey went smoothly, and they arrived at the border camp at nightfall. After informing the guarding ninja and completing the handover, the group was led to the camp's rest area.
"Medical resources at the front are precious. Nebula, treat Asuma," Mikoto Uchiha instructed.
Even if Asuma's injuries are reported, the assigned medical ninja might not be skilled in the Healing Palm Technique.
It would be best for Shenyue Xingyun to take direct action.
"Okay, Misaka-sensei," Shinzuki Seiun replied.
The military's permanent camps have no shortage of rooms; they are clean, tidy, and have fresh water.
Of course, this was the state of affairs during the truce.
After placing the silent but actually awake Sarutobi Asuma on the bed, Shinzuki Seiun gave him a quick clean-up before beginning treatment.
Hmm... No anesthesia needed. The chakra sensed the fairly neat broken bones, and with Sarutobi Asuma's eyes wide open, the broken bones were reset with a "crack".
Then, he used the Palm Immortal Technique.
The emerald green chakra brought a refreshing coolness and quickly repaired the opponent's injuries.
Twenty minutes later.
"Alright, the ribs have been set, and the internal injuries are mostly healed. I can't guarantee the outcome, but I've done my best."
Sarutobi Asuma kept his eyes open, but remained silent.
"Are you mute? Why aren't you saying anything?"
"No...no." Sarutobi Asuma said with a complicated expression.
"It's good that there aren't any mute people."
Shenyue Xingyun said, "You stay here by yourself for a while. If you get hungry, eat something. I'll go out for a bit."
"Um."
Sarutobi Asuma only relaxed after Shingetsu Seiun left the room.
Then, all I felt was frustration.
"Sigh~"
"How embarrassing!"
On the other side, in Uchiha Mikoto's room.
Shenyue Xingyun gently knocked on the door.
"Knock knock!"
"Ms. Mikoto, you wanted to see me?"
Before the lamp, Uchiha Mikoto put down the documents in her hand: "Come in and sit down."
Shenyue Xingyun moved a stool and sat down in front of the other party.
"Nebula, you did a great job today."
Shen Yue Xingyun humbly replied, "The teacher has taught us well."
Mikoto Uchiha smiled, and for a moment the room shone with light.
"What's good about training? Asuma and Kurenai were also trained by me. One is impulsive and reckless, and the other is rather timid."
"But your performance today exceeded my expectations."
Shenyue Xingyun didn't know how to respond, so she remained silent.
Mikoto Uchiha then asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Shingetsu Seiun asked uncertainly, "Mikoto-sensei, you mean...?"
Mikoto Uchiha: "I meant within the team."
"You and Sarutobi Asuma were in the same team; you were originally recruited as medical ninjas."
"But now I've discovered that your talents extend beyond medical ninjutsu."
"So I want to ask you, do you want to be a full-time medical ninja, or do you want to be a captain?"
Shenyue Xingyun was taken aback.
Mikoto Uchiha: "The original plan was for Asuma Sarutobi to be the captain."
"But based on recent observations, you are more suitable than Asuma in terms of both ability and personality."
Shingetsu Seiun: "But Asuma is..."
Mikoto Uchiha: "What is it?"
Shingetsu Seiun: "It's Sarutobi Asuma."
Mikoto Uchiha laughed: "You don't need to worry about that."
"All you need to do is tell me if you want to be the captain."
After speaking, she looked at Shenyue Xingyun, waiting for his answer. However, he didn't reply; instead, his gaze was fixed, as if he were lost in thought.
"What's wrong?" Mikoto Uchiha asked, puzzled. "What are you thinking about?"
Answer my question.
"Oh, oh~" Shingetsu Seiun realized what was happening. Her brain processed the information she had just heard and came to understand the question Uchiha Mikoto had asked.
"team leader!"
"Mikoto-sensei, I want to be the team leader!"
Mikoto Uchiha nodded.
"OK."
"I understand, you can go back now."
"Yes, Mikoto-sensei." Shingetsu Seiun replied, his gaze lingering on Uchiha Mikoto's face for a moment before turning and leaving.
His strange reaction didn't escape Mikoto Uchiha's notice.
The latter was somewhat puzzled. Then, she looked around in bewilderment, and when she saw the dim yellow light from the table lamp and her overly casual clothes, she seemed to suddenly understand.
Recalling the description in the other party's profile—"Public enemy of the ninja academy boys, with nearly a hundred ex-girlfriends"—her face flushed, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.
"You brat!"
She then thought to herself.
"I'll need to be more careful in the future."
...
Unbeknownst to Shingetsu Seiun, the Jonin leading the team, separated by only a wall, had already become wary of him.
He had been distracted not because of anything else, but because of the panel notification that suddenly popped up in front of him.
[Bound to: Uchiha Mikoto (Instance - Uchiha Fugaku)]
[Current Task: Filial Piety Between Master and Disciple (Uchiha Mikoto has been feeling down lately. Please massage her fingertips for one hour to relieve her stress.)]
[Task deadline: Seven days (Expired task will be void).]
[Task refreshed!]
[Current Task: Advanced Version of Master-Disciple Relationship (Uchiha Mikoto has been feeling down lately. Please massage her fingertips for 80 minutes to relieve her stress.)]
[Task time limit: two days. 】
[Mission Reward (Choose one): Childcare Guide Lv2, Ninja Tool Throwing Lv2, Great Fireball 100x Special Skill Boost Card.]
Shenyue Xingyun: "?"
Looking at the information on the panel in front of him, Shenyue Xingyun was full of question marks.
Wasn't it already expired and invalid? Why is a task notification popping up again?
Furthermore, the time has been extended from one hour to 80 minutes. What, the package has been upgraded?
But the mission rewards haven't changed.
Just then, Shenyue Xingyun's gaze sharpened and fell on the section after the mission rewards.
He rubbed his eyes.
If I remember correctly, the third reward was originally a Fireball Jutsu special skill boost card, but now it's doubled?
Doubling it isn't enough!
Poverty and hardship cannot sway him! His principles cannot be changed by a single Fireball Amplification Card!
After closing the system panel, Shenyue Xingyun calmed herself down and returned to her room.
"You're back." Inside the room, Sarutobi Asuma greeted him in a tone he had practiced several times.
Shenyue Xingyun seemed not to hear her and collapsed onto the blankets.
This left Sarutobi Asuma completely bewildered.
Are you angry because I didn't say thank you?
"You're such a cheapskate!"
……
After resting for two days, Sarutobi Asuma's injuries had healed. Having prepared their supplies, the team began their retreat. They needed to bring back new information to Konoha.
Because of his recent injury, Sarutobi Asuma was on one side, while Shingetsu Seiun was in front.
The group focused on their journey. After some time, when they arrived at the area where they had been attacked not long ago, they gradually became tense and cautiously observed the situation.
Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai gripped their kunai tightly, their eyes wide as they carefully sensed their surroundings.
No abnormalities were found.
After quickly passing through and walking for a while, Sarutobi Asuma finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the somewhat silent team, he wanted to liven things up and said...
"Fortunately, the journey back was relatively safe."
"When we get back to the village, I'll treat everyone to barbecue, okay?"
The voice just fell.
"Earth Release: Earth Grotto" "Boom!!~"
