Shizune looked at the team leader at a loss, and for a moment she didn't realize that she had asked the wrong question.

Ibri Snow's clear childish voice broke the atmosphere between the team.

"Because Orochimaru-sama needs us!"

Ibrich said openly.

"The adults all say that Lord Orochimaru helped us solve a big problem. The family wants to repay Lord Orochimaru and plans to send the most talented children to follow Lord Orochimaru.

"This is what Lord Orochimaru wants to see."

After hearing what Ibry Snow said, Shizune reacted belatedly.

She really shouldn't have spoken just now...

"one way or another."

Nara Langui looked at the two children and ordered again.

"Send them back first."

…

In front of the cave.

"Thank you very much Ninja-sama for your help!"

Mrs. Iburi took Yukimi and Tenzo's little hands and bowed to Nara Gui and the others to thank them.

"Business matters."

Nara Langui nodded slightly in return.

"Mr. Ibri, let's go back to the village to deliver the mission."

In the thanksgiving of the Ibri family.

The four of Nara and Gui left quickly.

Enter Shadow Eagle.

"Captain, I'm sorry."

Shizune's apology reached the ears of several companions.

"I shouldn't have asked that question just now."

"It's not a big deal."

Nara Langui drove the [Shadow Creature] and moved towards Konoha.

"It's just that when I return to the village to deliver the mission later, I need to report one more piece of news to the Third Hokage."

Although Nara Langui said it easily.

But Shizune still felt a little guilty.

For ninjas, completing tasks is the first prerequisite.

All information outside the mission is basically not considered by the ninja.

Contacting rashly and learning other information that is not part of the mission can easily cause unnecessary trouble to the ninja.

Shizune continued to apologize, "I'm so sorry, everyone."

"If you really feel sorry, next time we have a dinner party, you will be the one to treat me."

Nara Langui really didn't take this matter too seriously, but he still gave a solution.

"As for the place for the dinner, let Hinata decide."

"good!"

The one who responded more positively than Shizune was the little sister Hinata sitting next to her.

Return to the village, go to the Hokage Building, and hand over the mission scroll.

Several messages popped up on Nara Langui's panel.

[It has been detected that a D-class ninja commissioned mission scroll has been submitted!]

[D-level mission [Looking for Children] has been completed! 】

[You get a D-level [Ninja Secret Scroll]!]

Sarutobi Hiruzen put away the mission scroll and looked at the four boys and girls in front of him with a smile.

"How does it feel to go on a mission for the first time?"

"Trivial, troublesome."

Nara takes Gui and expresses his feelings directly.

The smile on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face froze.

He really shouldn't ask Nara Langui this question.

Next time I’d better ask Shisui next to me...

"Hokage-sama, during this mission, we discovered an unexpected intelligence message."

Nara Langui organized the language and relayed the news about Orochimaru and the Ibri clan to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Well, I know about Orochimaru's invitation to the Ibri clan to settle near Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's response did not exceed Nara Langui's expectations.

"He also mentioned to me that he wanted to help the Ibri family improve their physique... You are interested."

Having said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen skipped the topic and instead took out a banknote from the drawer.

"This is the reward for this mission, one thousand taels."

Nara Langui accepted the reward and left the Hokage's office with his team.

Exit the Hokage building.

Shizune looked relieved, "It turns out that Hokage-sama knows what happened between Orochimaru-sama and the Ibri clan..."

"Um?"

Nara Langui glanced at Shizune, distributed the reward in his hand to the other three people in the team according to the rules, and opened the D-level secret scroll he had just obtained.

"It's best like this..."
