After handling the minister's affairs, Musashi went back and found Loquat Juzo who was still pretending to be the minister.

Then the two of them left the minister's house together and went to the residence of their other target, the general.

In fact, according to the commission, the two of them should have completed their mission and can leave. The general's people will make up the remaining money.

Even if he is a general and hires ninjas to kill people, he must abide by the rules and dare not not pay, otherwise he will offend a large number of ninja organizations.

But the purpose of the Akatsuki organization is not just for the money. Their main goal is to reach a cooperative relationship with the general and monopolize the war commission of Tian Country.

At this time, the general was enjoying a sumptuous dinner.

On a huge round table were dozens of plates of hot dishes exuding wisps of white smoke and tempting aroma.

With so many dishes, it is naturally impossible for the general to finish them all, so he only takes two bites of each dish. If it is particularly delicious, he may eat four or five bites.

Moreover, the general never takes the first bite of a dish, but only takes his chopsticks after others have tasted it to see if it is poisonous.

He is a cautious person. Although he holds a high position and holds the military power of Tian Zhiguo, he never slacks off and never leaves any loopholes for others.

As long as there is a hint of danger, the general will try his best to eliminate that danger.

The minister dared to use his military power, which was the most intolerable thing for the general.

So the general resorted to a decisive attack and hired ninjas to kill the minister without giving the other party a chance.

"Oh, I really enjoy it."

Just when the general was thinking that the hired ninja should have arrived in Tian Country, and he would soon get the good news that the minister died tragically on the street, a sneer that the general had never heard appeared.

The general raised his head and saw two strangely dressed people appearing opposite him.

One person is holding a broad giant blade with a cross scar on his face, and the other person has two sharp blades hanging on his waist and has a pair of extremely sharp eyes.

Whoosh!

Several warriors in the room instantly drew their swords and moved to the general's side, looking cautiously at the two men who suddenly appeared.

"Who are you?" The general frowned, but he didn't panic and asked loudly.

His area is heavily guarded, with experts patrolling the area.

The two people could come to this room silently under such circumstances, and even found out after sitting opposite him, which shows that the two of them are very extraordinary.

Therefore, the general asked loudly, so that when people outside heard the noise, they would quickly come in to protect him.

Sure enough, after the general finished speaking, the samurai outside heard the movement and quickly entered the room, surrounding Loquat Juzo and Musashi.

Surrounded by many samurai, the two of them were not nervous at all, and Musashi even took a bite of the food on the table.

"Who are you, who sent you here, and what is the purpose?" The general hid among the many warriors and continued to ask, while using the cover of the warriors' bodies, he quietly walked outside.

Loquat Juuzang gave a bloody smile, held a decapitating sword and slapped away the nearby samurai, and then said with his biggest smile:

"General, why are you so afraid? We are here to bring you good news."

The general's footsteps paused, good news?

With such skill and coming to deliver good news to him, could he be a high-level ninja he hired to kill the minister?

But how would the ninja know that he hired him? He sent his men there.

Loquat Juuzang and Musashi released their momentum at the same time. Loquat Juuzang's substantial murderous intention scared some samurai so much that they couldn't even hold their swords steady, and even dropped them to the ground.

Musashi's sharp sword-like aura made many warriors feel like a thorn in their backs, making them feel uneasy.

Seeing that neither of them had made a move, and that the warriors on his side were almost ready to take a break, the general stopped. He knew that running away was useless.

Although there is a strong man he recruited before who is nearby, but even that strong man cannot achieve this step just by relying on his momentum.

"Get out, I want to talk to these two about something." The general ordered his subordinate Bushido.

The warriors looked at each other and finally walked out.

Although I don’t know why the general suddenly has to face two dangerous intruders alone, but since he is a general, he should abide by it.

"You two must be the ninjas who accepted the commission," the general asked.

A strange look flashed in Loquat Juuzang's eyes. He originally wanted to scare the general, but he didn't expect to be guessed.

"Yes, you will get the news about the minister's disappearance for no reason tomorrow." Musashi nodded.

"Are those two here to collect the remaining commission money? I'll have someone prepare it right away." The general said quickly.

"Please, please wait here for a moment."

"There's no rush for the entrustment. I came here to talk to you about something else." Loquat Juuzang said calmly.

The general nodded to show that he understood.

He knew that Musashi and the others must have other motives for coming here, otherwise why would they come to him as their client for no reason.

However, the two of them didn't do anything serious just now, so they probably weren't trying to cause trouble for him, and maybe it was a good thing.

"Then let me put it bluntly, our organization wants to monopolize the war commission of Tian Country. From now on, your war in Tian Country can be handed over to our Akatsuki Organization." Loquat Juuzang said.

The general's originally soothing brows wrinkled again.

Will future wars be entrusted to only one organization? The other party's plans are not small.

"This matter is too important, let me think about it for two days." The general thought for a while and said.

boom!

Loquat Juzo swung out, and the wooden floor of the room instantly shattered, leaving a crescent-shaped slash mark.

"We are not here to discuss with you, but to inform you." Loquat Juuzang raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile.

"General, you don't want your announcement of a commission to kill the minister to spread throughout Tian Country." Musashi said calmly.

"And, I believe you will be very interested in this cooperation."

Musashi revealed the terms of the Akatsuki organization.

After the general heard this, he looked astonished.

It is equivalent to half the price of other ninja village ninja organizations to solve the war for them.

Is there such a good thing?

The general didn't expect that there was such a thing as pie in the sky, and someone would actually knock on the door and offer benefits.

The general readily agreed to the request for cooperation, saying that this small matter would be no problem, and that all future war commissions in Tian Country would be handed over to the Akatsuki organization.

Of course, the general also knew that the Akatsuki organization would definitely have other plans, but he didn't know it.

A ninja organization with such powerful members cannot simply want to do charity.

However, the general doesn't care very much. It doesn't matter what happens to Tian Zhiguo, as long as his interests are not harmed.

By cooperating with Xiao Organization, he will be able to earn more money in the future.

At the same time, he can more easily use the power of the Akatsuki organization to eradicate those who are dangerous to him.

After discussing the cooperation, Musashi and Loquat Juzo left.

They are not worried that the general will go back on his word, because they are the leaders and have absolute power. If the general goes back on his word, they will be beheaded.

…………………………

For the Ninja School students in the past few years, Ninja School really changes every year.

First, the emergence of students with medical expertise gives all students an additional choice.

Then, the special operations class directly recruits graduates from ninja schools, giving graduates an additional path besides becoming genin directly and being assigned to the ninja class.

This year's changes are even greater, with an extra level added directly.

All the existing students have been assigned to the primary school, and there is an additional middle school above.

And "elementary school" has also changed from six years to four years.

Of course, students have only been notified now, and the specific changes will not be implemented until the end of this semester and the next semester.

The graduates of this class will be the last graduates of the six-year ninja school.

Most students actually don't pay much attention to this news.

Because "middle school" only lasts three years, that is to say, in fact, elementary school plus middle school is only one year more than the original ninja school, so the change is not big.

Of course, it’s not like no one cares about this, Hua Yang cares about this very much.

"Then it won't take me another five years to graduate." Hua Yang fell into deep thought.

She is in the second grade this year and will be promoted to the third grade next semester. She originally thought she had almost completed half of the journey, but suddenly she had one more year.

"Are we going to graduate early?" Hua Yang couldn't help but think.

Although her strength is not as good as Kabuto, with diligent training, Huayo feels that as a third grader, she must have the strength to pass the early graduation assessment.

Her family did not agree with the problem technique.

She had tried to mention it once before.

As a result, her mother said no, saying that at this age, she should fully experience student life in the ninja school and leave beautiful memories.
