Chapter 50 Doing dishonorable things, don't try to gain a glorious reputation

Chapter 50 Don’t try to achieve a glorious reputation if you do something dishonorable

Tatsuma didn't know what Jiraiya did last night when he was drinking. When he woke up and went out, he found that Murata Yuko was shining again. She no longer had the last wish she had last night and could die at any time.

Decadent.

Zhongsheng and others were also taken away by the ninjas of Taki Ninja Village and the police officers of the towns around the Land of Fire. In Tatsuma's opinion, these would be the most troublesome tasks, but Jiraiya actually solved them in one night.

.

Minato looked at Zhongsheng being taken away by the jounin of Takinin Village, and asked Jiraiya: "Teacher Jiraiya, since the jounin of Takinin Village has already arrived here, why do you still need us to perform the mission?"

"Because this is the Country of Fire, even if he can arrest him earlier, he can't take action."

Jiraiya sighed and said: "If the Konoha ninja takes action, even if it takes longer, the only people harmed are civilians whom the daimyo doesn't care about.

But if the ninjas of Taki Ninja Village take action, even if it can reduce the harm to civilians, the daimyo will not agree, because in this way, what the daimyo cares about is the reputation of the great country."

Minato still didn't understand, Tatsuma didn't speak, because Jiraiya didn't need to explain, he already understood.

As for whether this concept is correct? Chenma doesn't know how to evaluate it. The sovereignty of a country needs such deeds to maintain. Even if it hurts civilians, it will only hurt a small number of civilians in the short term.

Once a precedent is set, the sovereignty of the Fire Country will be trampled on, and it will be much more difficult to reshape it, and Konoha will also be greatly affected. Some people will question Konoha's strength, thus reducing the number of tasks entrusted.

Therefore, if you look at it from a high place, it is indeed worthwhile to maintain the dignity of the entire country while only sacrificing a very small number of people. But Chenma is standing at the grassroots level now, and he can also see that people are really hurt.

Jiraiya looked at the two students who suddenly lost the joy after completing the task, and sighed, rubbed their heads, and said: "Okay, we should go back."

"Jiraiya-sama"

Hearing that they were about to leave, Murata Yuko suddenly spoke and said: "The village wants to hold a banquet to thank you. If you are not busy, can you stay for the banquet?"

Jiraiya waved his hands and said: "Forget it, we are ninjas. Ninjas don't need flowers and applause. Moreover, we arrived a little late, which caused more tragedies here. We really have no shame in staying here.

."

As he said that, he lowered his hands and put them on the backs of Tatsuma and Minato's necks, leading the two of them towards the outside of the village. After leaving the village for some distance, Jiraiya asked:

"Do you mind if I take away the opportunity for you two to be praised?"

Minato shook his head, Tatsuma shrugged, indicating that he didn't care, Jiraiya nodded and said: "Ninjas, what they fear most is being burdened by fame. There is only one ninja in Konoha who needs fame.

That is Hokage. If you are not Hokage, or don't want to be Hokage, then don't ask for it, it shouldn't be that you don't want to be tainted with any trace of fame."

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Tatsuma showed a look of contemplation. He finally understood why Jiraiya never claimed to be the Sannin of Konoha, and even later, he still claimed to be the Toad Sage of Mt. Myoboku.

Because Jiraiya did not want to become Hokage, he also consciously threw away the title of Konoha Ninja that was blessed on his head. In the future, he will wear a unique "oil" forehead protector when he walks in the ninja world.

And what Jiraiya said seems to be true. Ninjas burdened by fame are not a good thing, at least in Konoha Village.

Konoha White Fang Hatake Ki Sakumo committed suicide; wandering miko medicine master Nono U was killed by his own people; Konoha instantly stopped the water and committed suicide after being plotted by his boss; Danzo Shimura in the Dark of the Ninja World blocked a bridge and died.

.

And who are the immortals with resounding titles? The god of the ninja world, Senju Hashirama, is the first Hokage; the fastest Senju Tobirama in the ninja world is the second generation Hokage, and the ninjutsu professor Sarutobi Hiruzen is the third generation.

Naruto.

Afterwards, the yellow flashing wave Feng Minato became the fourth generation Hokage; Tsunade, one of the big fat sheep/Konoha Sannin, became the fifth generation Hokage; the copy ninja Kakashi became the sixth generation Hokage; and the most unexpected ninja Uzumaki Naruto

He is the Seventh Hokage.

In addition, the Konoha ninjas with resounding nicknames basically had no good results. Even the self-proclaimed "Blue Beast of Konoha", Metkai, almost died.

Maybe it's metaphysics, or maybe it's someone manipulating it, but it's true as Jiraiya said, if you are not Hokage, or don't plan to become Hokage, then you don't need fame.

After all, in the ninja world, in the consensus of many people, ninjas are tools.

The people who use tools are the shadows in the village and the famous names in the country. The more dazzling the tools, the more inconvenient they are to use. For such tools, you can only lift them up or bury them.

Seeing the thinking looks on the two students' faces, Jiraiya shook his head and sighed to himself why he was telling these two brats so early, so he smiled and said:

"Let's not talk about that. Congratulations. You have completed the first mission of your ninja career. This mission has a reward of fifty thousand taels. The village will take 20% of the profit. The rest will be given to you. After all, I have no contribution."

Tatsuma raised his eyebrows, "40,000 taels. If he and Minato split it equally, then it would be 20,000 taels each. This is the total subsidy for most of the past six months."

And it only took them six days. Even if there was still a day or two to go back, it would only take a little more than a week.

After all, they have to pay for the rent, water and electricity for their current apartment, and including living expenses, it only lasts for about three months.

Moreover, they traveled light on this trip, and they didn't buy any ninja tools or detonating charms. Even the military food pills were produced by Jiraiya. If these were included, I'm afraid the time they could last would be cut in half.

In an instant, Tatsuma's joy that had just risen disappeared, while Minato didn't think too much, shook his head and said:

"No, Teacher Jiraiya, without your help, we would not have been able to complete the task so smoothly."

As he said that, he looked at Tatsuma, who also nodded, not intending to covet the money, and said: "My thoughts are the same as Minato, Jiraiya-sensei, you can just take the share you deserve.

"

Jiraiya showed a happy smile. He cared less about the money than these two students, but he liked their attitude very much. Jiraiya laughed and said:

"Since you are so caring, I will accept you as my teacher! I will treat you to barbecue when I get back! Hahaha~"

"Gulu~"*2

Hearing Jiraiya mention BBQ, the eyes of the two people who had been eating BBQ pills for a week lit up at the same time. Tatsuma licked the corner of his mouth and said, "Minato, I suddenly want to eat BBQ earlier."

"Me too, how about we go back to the village quickly?"

"Want to have a race?"

Hearing this, Minato nodded and said, "Come on!"

"As expected of you, Minato. After just finishing the mission, you are still so energetic. But I will reach the village faster than you!"
Chapter completed!
