Hokage: I Traveled Through Time With The Tenseigan

Chapter 18: *Chapter 18 Tsunade Intercepts Hu As A Middleman



"Yes, Lord Hokage."

The people from the mission department left the Hokage office and rushed to the medical department as quickly as possible.

As for why he asked Tsunade first instead of asking Shigeru directly for confirmation, the ninjas in the mission department didn't think much of it.

Lord Hokage gave an order, and that was it. Why overthink?

"If you want to become a qualified medical ninja, a large amount of accumulated knowledge and accurate chakra mastery are basic conditions. I still say the same thing: you need to read more books, study more, and train harder."

"Don't enter the medical department thinking that you can become the second Hyuga Shigeru. There are not many people like him in the entire ninja world."

"Tsunade-sama, there are ninjas from the mission department looking for you."

Tsunade was teaching a class to a group of newcomers. After being reminded by her colleagues, she walked out of the classroom and rubbed her aching temples. She felt that she was losing a lot of brain cells every day.

Teaching students was really difficult.

Compared with the previous model of in-person learning and step-by-step instruction, this open assembly line education was simply torture.

"Tsunade-sama."

The mission department ninjas saluted respectfully and greeted her.

Tsunade waved her hands, a little impatiently. "Okay, don't do this. Tell me what you want from me."

"Master Hokage asked you to take a look at this document and then negotiate with Hyuga Shigeru. After the standard for the mission reward is set, I will return to the Hokage to reply."

The mission department ninja handed over a document.

What's this mess? Shigeru, that brat, went and released a mission?

Tsunade took the file, opened it, and read it.

It's true.

However, this task was not released rigorously, and even the basic standard remuneration was not determined.

A long-lasting mission?

For such a task, the level would probably be determined by the collected biological corpses. What Shigeru wanted was a powerful biological corpse.

In other words, the task rating wouldn't be very low.

A low task rating would mean lower rewards.

In addition, it was a long-term mission, which would cause Shigeru to spend a lot of money on this mission.

Shigeru had a small savings, but not much. Tsunade wouldn't doubt that he couldn't get paid, as medical ninjas were indeed profitable.

As long as Shigeru didn't have any money-burning hobbies, there would be no problem in paying him with his income.

"You come with me."

After closing the file, Tsunade took the ninjas from the mission department and rushed to the hospital next door, just as Shigeru walked out of a ward.

Tsunade motioned for him to enter the lounge to talk.

Entering the lounge, Tsunade shut the door in front of the mission department ninjas without ceremony and asked seriously, "Do you want to conduct experiments and research?"

"No."

Shigeru was still wondering why she was being so serious. He had just issued a task. Even if it was a long-term task, his income must be enough to cover the remuneration.

"Then why did you issue a mission to collect the corpses of powerful creatures?"

"To make a puppet. You shouldn't use the corpse of a ninja to make a puppet. I have no interest in using the corpses of ninjas."

Shigeru wouldn't think anything of using animal carcasses as puppets, but if it were a human being... he wouldn't be able to accept it.

He didn't want to become a person who enjoyed messing with corpses.

"Okay, as long as you're interested, I'll help you decide the task rating directly, so that the old man can take advantage of you."

Tsunade was a little worried before she came. She was afraid that Shigeru would become the second Orochimaru.

Although the current Orochimaru was not the darkened Uncle Snake of the future, he had a history of enjoying working with corpses, and all his income and rewards were invested in such pursuits.

As long as Shigeru didn't want to study corpses and conduct messy experiments, that was enough.

Is it strange that a corpse is needed to make a puppet?

If you don't use ninja corpses, you can stick to the bottom line.

"You go back and tell the old man that I have taken over this task. You don't have to go through the Hokage office anymore."

When playing the Gate of Opening, Tsunade directly signaled to the ninjas in the mission department that they could get out of the way. This mission didn't require the Hokage Office Building to worry about.

"Ah?"

The ninja from the mission department who was still waiting for orders was stunned.

"Tsunade-sama, this, I..."

"You think I'm not qualified?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. It's just that it's a bit against the rules..."

"Then I don't care. Just go back and tell the old man the truth. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Yes..."

The mission department ninja left with a sad face.

Shigeru didn't expect that Tsunade would take over this matter.

"Don't tell me that you want to go on this mission."

There was no need to question that Tsunade was poor, but her income was definitely high. Being poor was just because she couldn't control herself and lost all her income.

If Tsunade really ran to carry out this mission, she would definitely lose a watermelon and pick up sesame seeds.

"How is that possible?"

Do you think I look like a fool?

Tsunade glared at Shigeru angrily.

"Then what did you do with the task?"

Shigeru genuinely didn't understand Tsunade's actions.

"It's not cost-effective for me to carry out the mission myself, but I can get a commission."

"..."

Good guy!

This is probably a case of picking on the Third Hokage.

Under Shigeru's stunned eyes, Tsunade felt a little embarrassed. "I've been relatively poor recently, so I want to make some extra money. Don't worry, I'll definitely find you the most suitable person. That guy is the best at doing these things."

Tsunade was very poor, and she only had a few steel hoops left in her pocket.

She liked to eat at Shigeru's family. In addition to having a good relationship and enjoying the delicious food Shigeru cooked, it also had something to do with her poverty.

Eating was only a small problem; the bigger issue was having no money and feeling restless!

Passing by the casino every day, Tsunade felt uncomfortable all over.

So she desperately wanted to make some extra money, preferably quickly, and the opportunity came to her door.

As for whether the Third Hokage had any thoughts, Tsunade didn't really care.

It was just a mission, and Tsunade-hime still had this privilege.

"Okay, you can take care of the arrangements yourself. When the materials are delivered, I will pay you."

If Tsunade wanted to make a fortune, then let her go. Anyway, it was impossible for Shigeru to give money first, especially to Tsunade.

This woman would bite at his thighs if she had money in her pocket.

She would never give up until she lost everything.

"No problem, just prepare the money."

After making a promise to Shigeru, Tsunade hurriedly left the hospital and went directly to Orochimaru's research laboratory.

"Orochimaru, I have something to ask you! It's a good thing."

Is this what you call a good thing?

Orochimaru glanced at the broken door that had been kicked open and the scrapped equipment on the test bench. He had lost at least tens of thousands of ryo just because of Tsunade's kick.

Tsunade was poor, and Orochimaru was not rich either.

One liked to gamble, and the other liked to do research. The former was a deep pit with no way back; the latter could make back the money, and even bring huge profits, but the prerequisite was that a huge amount of money needed to be invested.

"Five hundred thousand, this task belongs to you."

Taking out the mission scroll and throwing it to Orochimaru, Tsunade opened her mouth like a lion.
