Chapter 168 Upgrading Chunin

Chapter 168 Upgrading Chunin

"It smells good, um, it shouldn't be spicy." Aoki Gennosuke obviously has some indescribable shadows about spicy hot pot, and whether it is spicy or not is his criterion for judging.

"For today, I have prepared many different pot bases, some of which are slightly spicy after adjustment. If you are not satisfied with the food, you can try some. In fact, in my opinion, the hot pot bottom is the essence of hot pot." Xia Shu served Hot pot with different colors and aromas, and the rest of the ingredients are already full, so I can't help but share my experience at this moment.

"I can't come, I can't come!" Aoki Gennosuke and Kuno Kuroyu waved their hands together, their movements were exactly the same, leaving Xia Shu speechless.

"Senior Gu Jie, this is a clear soup pot. There are also these types, which also have a light taste." Xia Shu was obviously much gentler to the master, and didn't even mention the spicy pot bottom.

The comparison between the cost of eating out and cooking by myself is quite obvious, at least for this multi-taste hot pot meal, Xia Shu didn't spend all of the rewards for escort missions.

"This project... hiccup!" Kuno Heiyu covered his stomach, hiccupped out his double chin, and then suddenly pointed, "I voted!"

"I'm not asking you to invest, but to manage the store." Xia Shu brushed away Kuno Heiyu's finger, "If it's about family assets, I'm afraid I'm the first in the team."

"Hmm! Hmm!" Gennosuke Aoki, who was still feeling heartbroken until now, hastily agreed, not daring to show off his wealth at all.

"Doesn't that have to start from scratch?" Kuno Heiyu raised his eyebrows.

"Satisfaction comes from self-made, doesn't it?" Xia Shu said with a smile.

"I mean, if you open a store, what about the tasks?" Kuno Heiyu hesitated, but the expression on his face revealed his longing for wealth.

"The village needs to pay for cultivating ninjas. After becoming a ninja, you have to pay back to the village. However, those who are injured and retired can also apply for retirement." Aoki Gennosuke said after hearing the words: "It's just that if you choose to retire, the ninja will have to pay a certain price."

"That's money?" Xia Shu shrugged.

"That's right." Gennosuke Aoki nodded, looked at Kuno Kuroyu with squinted eyes and said: "The amount is about half of the reward you get, but it is not calculated by task, but there is a minimum amount. For you, Kuroyu , return all the income from performing the mission, and more than half of the unexpected gains from Black Moon Valley."

"So much?!" Kuno Heiyu widened his eyes and opened his mouth in shock.

"If you make up your mind, Hei Yu, I can pay the money for you, and the hot pot restaurant will count me an extra share." Xia Shu said nonchalantly.

"Is it possible?!" Kuno Heiyu said excitedly.

"Heiyu, you really don't plan to be a ninja anymore?" Aoki Gennosuke asked with a frown.

"Mr. Gennosuke, you know me. My biggest dream is to buy a big house for my family. Although being a ninja is exciting and interesting, it is also very dangerous. If there is another way to realize my dream, I..." Kuno Kuro There was a look of shame on Yu's face, and he couldn't continue speaking halfway through, and just lowered his head.

The originally pleasant atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, Gennosuke Aoki sighed, raised his head and said, "Since it's your choice, then... Kuroyu, I won't stop you."

"Sorry! Teacher Gennosuke!" Kuno Kuroyu shouted with tears in his eyes.

"You don't have to apologize, everyone has their own aspirations, but since you have chosen another path, you must make achievements, you know?" Aoki Gennosuke pretended to be stern.

"I will! I will definitely become a millionaire and dominate the Konoha catering industry!" Kuno Kuroyu clenched his fists and shouted excitedly.

"Hehe! Come on!" Aoki Gennosuke encouraged with a smile.

With this matter settled, Gennosuke Aoki turned his head to look at Natsuki again.

"It was supposed to be something worth celebrating, but there is no joyful emotion at this moment."

"What is Mr. Xuan Zhisuke referring to?" Xia Shu paused for a moment, and then said: "But I also have one thing to say."

"Then let me talk about it first, don't say what you said is another bad mood." Aoki Gennosuke smiled heartily.

I'm sorry, it's really a matter of bad mood, Xia Shu suddenly felt a little sad, is the Aoki team going to be a thing of the past?

"Congratulations, Natsuki." Gennosuke Aoki took out a letter of appointment, "From today onwards, you will be a Konoha Chunin."

"Chunin?" Xia Shu was slightly stunned when he heard the words, took a look at the letter of appointment, and saw his information, tasks and achievements, and the Hokage seal stamped on it, which represented Since the seal was dropped, he has been a Konoha Chuin.

"Wow! Natsuki is a Chunin?" Kuno Kuroyu exclaimed, and immediately leaned over, then sighed: "I'm so envious, but unfortunately I have no chance to become a Chunin."

"It's not so easy to become a Chunin, you bastard!" Gennosuke Aoki pushed Kuno Kuroyu away and reprimanded: "The Chunin can already lead the team in theory, so the Chunin is not only strong enough, Experience and caution are also essential, I don’t worry about Natsuki, if you…”

"How about me?" Kuno Heiyu didn't know how to look at people's faces and expressions at all, his eyes lit up with anticipation.

"You are unqualified in one item!" Aoki Gennosuke waved his hand, showing no mercy, but he glanced to the side, but suddenly stopped.

"Sorry, Mr. Gennosuke." Xia Shu pondered for a moment, and said directly: "I may not be able to participate in the mission of the Aoki team in the future. Not long ago, Anbu recruited new recruits, and I was listed as one of the candidates."

"You want to enter Anbe?" Gennosuke Aoki was surprised, he didn't expect this at all.

"Perhaps the performance in previous missions was pretty good, so I got this opportunity. If I pass the training, I will probably be able to enter Anbu." Xia Shu briefly explained.

"This is something worth celebrating! That's Anbu that only elites can enter!" Gennosuke Aoki said excitedly with a face full of surprise.

This reaction was completely unexpected by Xia Shu.

"So... celebrate for me?" he asked tentatively.

"We must celebrate!" Gennosuke Aoki laughed loudly: "Promotion to Chunin and entry to Anbe are both worthy of celebration. Now that we are together, Natsuki, I especially promise you that you can be on the hotpot!"

"Tomorrow, eat well." Hearing the hot pot bottom, Kuno Kuroyu shuddered all over, and pulled Aoki Gennosuke's arm to remind him not to get too complacent.

"Okay, then tomorrow," Aoki Gennosuke and Kuno Kuroyu looked at each other, their bodies froze immediately, and they laughed a few times.

"I will be ready, I must come, no one can escape!" Xia Shu smiled cooperatively.

However, no matter how lively and laughing, it can't conceal that this is a farewell. Even if you are still in Konoha, you don't know when it will be when you meet and reminisce.
