Chapter 113 Getting Old and Selling Health Supplements; First Encounter with Killer Bee's Team!
Looking at the innocent Tsunade, Uchiha Ike smiled with relief.
Tsunade could say she didn't receive it, or that she didn't see it, but she specifically said she didn't know.
Uchiha Ike doesn't even know how to clean up his mess. If he believes Tsunade but doesn't know what mission expenses are, he might as well believe he's the Sage of Six Paths.
He glanced at the other two in Class 5 and noticed that their expressions were equally subtle, so he nodded slightly.
That's more or less.
If they really believe Tsunade, then when they get old, Uchiha Ike will have to sell them some health supplements.
"Huh? What kind of looks are those?" Tsunade glared at the members of Team 5, clearly annoyed. "I'm your teacher, of course I have my reasons. What kind of ninja goes on an intelligence mission by carriage? So ostentatiously, do they even care about their informants' lives?"
After saying that, she glared at Class 5 again with a self-righteous air.
However, none of the three seemed ready to agree, still sporting expressions of "yes, yes, yes, yes."
Tsunade clicked her tongue regretfully, knowing she probably couldn't fool them, so she simply waved her hand and revealed the truth: "If you want to ride in a carriage, then ride by yourselves. You've completed so many missions, you're not short of money now."
"Shut up, let's go!"
After saying that, Tsunade tossed her blonde hair back and walked north without looking back.
Kakashi thought for a moment, and to kill the remaining time, he took out a brand new little book from his pocket and followed after them, flipping through it as he went.
"This is wonderful..."
""
Kurenai Yuhi murmured to herself, watching the leisurely backs of the two people in front of her.
"What's so good?" Uchiha Ike asked, tilting his head.
"It's great," Kurenai Yuhi said earnestly. "Atmosphere, strength, potential—our team is great in every aspect."
"Our team can handle any mission, right?"
Why set goals so early in the trip?
Uchiha Ike used hair gel to smooth his messy hair, then slowly nodded and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, that's indeed the case."

At the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Fields, there is a secret intelligence agency.
Swah—
A golden figure instantly appeared inside.
A masked ninja dressed in the Land of Fields' attire crouched on the ground, holding a long white sword, warily scanning the room's surroundings, searching for the target mentioned in the mission scroll.
However, the intelligence office was completely empty, not a soul in sight. Even the desks that should have been piled high with documents were spotless.
The masked ninja frowned, unwilling to give up, scanning every corner, but still found no suspicious traces.
"It's empty again..."
'
He stood up dejectedly, ripped off the black mask from his face, and exhaled a heavy breath.
"It's so hot..."
'
A female ninja stepped in from behind the door.
She was tall and slender with full features, and the skin on her exposed arms was as white as milk.
Her face was veiled by the darkness of night, obscuring her features, but her blue-green eyes always gave off a strange sense of detachment.
Looking at her comrade, the female ninja said coldly, "Azui, we're still on a mission. Don't take off your mask... and don't use your headband to fan yourself. Ninjas from the Land of Rice Fields don't treat their headbands like that."
Although the Land of Rice Fields does not have ninja villages, it does have ninjas, and all of these ninjas' headbands are personally bestowed by the daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields, giving them an extra layer of honor compared to ninjas from other countries.
She pursed her lips, though she still put her mask back on.
If it were anyone else, he might have been unable to resist arguing back, but now the person accompanying him on this mission was his own sister, Samui.
"But it's so hot..." Atsui complained as she obediently put her headband back on.
"Then just keep enduring it..."
'
Samui tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, about to scold Atsi, when rhythmic clapping and whistling came from outside the intelligence office.
*Smack, smack...*
A tall figure walked in, bending down and bowing his head.
He had dark skin, wore black sunglasses, grinned with a large smile, and muttered strange gestures.
"If it's hot, then take it off, oh dear..."
'
"If you're cold, then wear it, hey..."
"
"It doesn't even rhyme," Atsi grinned, turning to the tall black man and saying indignantly, "Why doesn't he have to wear a mask...?"
'
"Because he is Lord Killer Bee, no one outside knows his identity, and..."
'
With that body of black muscles, it's highly unlikely anyone would believe he's a ninja from the Land of Rice Fields.
Samui glanced at Killer Bee and asked calmly, "Teacher Killer Bee, have you found those damp rats here?"
When she was still a genin, Killer Bee was unable to participate in most activities due to the villagers' ostracism. Out of boredom, he once taught her swordsmanship for a period of time.
Therefore, Kirabi can be considered her half-teacher.
She never expected that Killer Bee would be on a mission with them this time.
It's hard not to suspect that Killer Bee wanted to get out of the village for some fresh air, and he begged and pleaded with the Third Raikage for a long time before finally getting this opportunity.
"Still haven't found it?"
Getting down to business, Killer Bee, who was still performing his rap, straightened up and asked in a deep voice, "How many times has this happened?"
"This is the fifth time," Samui replied.
This time, even the usually calm Samui sounded a hint of helplessness in his voice.
It is an obvious fact that there are no spies in Kumogakure, after all, no spy can outrun the Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
However, this intelligence did not come from within the village, but from outside the village.
The Land of Lightning, and the Land of Fields.
These intelligence agents from Konoha are lurking in various industries in both countries.
Some established intelligence agencies, posing as black market middlemen; some opened firms, posing as private detectives; and others simply blended into the community, becoming the farmers that can be seen everywhere in the Land of Fields...
They thus established themselves in the Land of Lightning, relying on secret techniques and telescopes to constantly spy on the area surrounding and outside of Kumogakure. They managed to deduce useful intelligence from the slightest clues and the daily comings and goings of ninjas.
Then, they transmitted this information into the Land of Rice Fields, and then, in the same way, to the Hokage's desk in Konoha.
Just like now, they were clearly on a secret mission, but they came up empty-handed.
This would have been absolutely impossible if we hadn't known about their departure beforehand.
At this rate, even if they search every location on every reel, they won't be able to find a single rat from Konoha.
Faced with such a worrying situation, Killer Bee remained silent, resting his right hand on his chin, lost in deep thought.
After a long while, he slowly raised his palm.
Noticing Kirabi's actions, Samui and Atsui looked over in silence.
Although he always seemed unreliable, they also knew that this Eight-Tails Jinchuriki could be surprisingly dependable at times...
Under the hopeful and expectant gaze of Samui and Atsi.
Killer Bee, who had been holding up both hands, slowly closed his middle and ring fingers.
"Oh, oh, five failed attempts, unable to find the spy, how to deal with this situation, oh oh..."
'
Samui:
'
'
Atsi: 6
'
This is terrible.
While Killer Bee joining them on missions guarantees safety, it doesn't guarantee mission success.
However, just when the siblings were somewhat pessimistic about the mission...
A sound came from outside the intelligence office once again.
"This seems to be the place..."
"Strange, why is the door open?"
