Chapter 160 10,002,000 commission
After learning Ye Yu's true thoughts, Feng Hua Xiao Xue was finally able to put her mind at ease.
The two chatted for a while longer before Feng Hua Xiaoxue went back to rest.
After Fuuka Koyuki left, Asama Santayu knocked on Yoru's door.
Ye Yu was speechless. "What exactly are these two trying to do?"
Yoru knew that it was Asama Santayu who was knocking on the door.
As long as he unleashes his senses, he can perceive anything within a ten-kilometer radius.
"Come in."
Asama Santau pushed open the door and walked in.
He sat down in front of Ye Yu.
"Mr. Ye Yu, please help Princess Xiao Xue restore her kingdom."
Asama Santayu knelt down in front of Yoru as he spoke.
This left Ye Yu speechless.
“Mr. Asama Santayu, this is not within my scope of duties.”
After helping Asama Santayu up, Yoru said.
"We are willing to pay all expenses incurred by you in assisting Princess Xiaoxue in restoring her kingdom."
Asama Santayu said earnestly.
Ye Yu frowned. "This isn't about money."
"We can pay you a maximum of 1000 million taels."
Ye Yu, who was initially unwilling to agree, fell silent.
Originally, Yoru only agreed to help Kazama Koyuki defeat Kazama Nutō and protect her safety.
This is an S-level mission.
But restoring the kingdom is a super S-level mission.
Furthermore, individuals cannot publish this information; only the state can do so.
It's impossible for just one person to accomplish this.
Moreover, at least a Jonin is needed to accept a mission of this level.
Of course, only Jonin can accept A-rank and above.
Ye Yu simply didn't want to get involved in so many things; he only intended to defeat Feng Hua Nu Tao and then complete the mission.
He never intended to make money by performing missions.
But Asama Santayu's offer was too high.
It's high enough that Ye Yu is willing to give it a try.
10 million taels of silver—that's the cost of 1000 S-level missions.
If Ye Yu had 1000 million taels, he could live a life of ease from now on.
Although he wouldn't give up, the price did tempt him.
"It seems that defeating Feng Hua Nu Tao is essentially the same as helping Princess Xiao Xue restore her kingdom, right?"
Ye Yu asked in confusion.
Asama Santayu shook his head. "Many ninjas in Yukigami Village support Fuuka Nutō. Even if we defeat Fuuka Nutō, they still won't obey Princess Yuki."
Yoru frowned. "You mean you want me to destroy Snow Village?"
Ye Yu had no desire to do such a thing, no matter how much money it was.
This would constitute instigating a war.
Ye Yu didn't want to get involved in such troublesome matters.
Asama Santayu quickly explained, "No, I didn't mean for you to destroy Yukigakure. After all, Yukigakure is a very important military force for our Land of Snow."
"All we need is for you to help us get rid of the ninjas in Yukigami Village who are disobeying Princess Yuki."
Ye Yu thought for a moment and said, "If there aren't too many people, I can agree. But if there are too many, I'm not the kind of ninja who would do anything for money."
To put it bluntly, Ye Yu was indeed tempted by the commission of 1000 million taels.
But he couldn't bring himself to destroy a ninja village, slaughter hundreds of ninjas, or kill thousands or even tens of thousands of innocent people with whom he had no grudge.
After all, Yoru was a normal person; he wasn't as extreme as Itachi Uchiha.
Moreover, neither the Third Hokage, Kakashi, nor Kimoto Ichido would support him doing such a thing.
Ye Yu herself didn't want to do it either.
Asama Santayu quickly said, "Don't worry, there won't be too many people. After all, Yukigakure is very important to our Land of Snow, and we don't want Yukigakure to be destroyed."
The reason Asama Santayu said that was because he believed that Yoru really had the ability to wipe out Yukigami Village.
The strength that Yoru had previously displayed had already convinced Asama Santayu.
Moreover, if Yoru really dared to slaughter Yukigami Village for 1000 million taels, he should be worried about the safety of Kazama Koyuki.
Asama Santayu would not feel at ease entrusting the life of Fuuka Koyuki to such a profit-driven, bloodthirsty, and cruel person.
Yoru nodded and said, "Actually, once we defeat Fuuka Ryuu, even if there are still people in Yukigami Village who object, they can't do anything about it."
After all, as long as Fuuka Koyuki becomes the Daimyo of the Land of Snow, cutting off the military funding of Yukigakure would be enough to throw Yukigakure into chaos.
The main reason why Feng Hua Nu Tao was able to successfully stage a coup was because Feng Hua Nu Tao and Feng Hua Xiao Xue's fathers were brothers.
Their conflict was a matter within the daimyo's family.
The victory of Feng Hua Nu Tao also has a certain degree of legitimacy.
Even if some people oppose the turbulent winds and waves, it won't amount to much.
This is also why Fuuka Koyuki has been unwilling to return to the Land of Snow for the past ten years.
She was well aware that while some people in the Land of Snow disagreed with Fuuka Nuotao becoming the daimyo, most people didn't care who the daimyo was, as long as they were of the Fuuka family bloodline.
Asama Santayu naturally understood this, but he was still worried that a ninja might threaten Fuuka Koyuki.
"In order for Princess Yuki to smoothly take over as the daimyo of the Snow Kingdom, I must be careful."
Yoru can understand.
Yoru agreed to Asama Santayu's request.
For him, helping Feng Hua Xiao Xue defeat Feng Hua Nu Tao was practically equivalent to helping her restore her kingdom.
Helping her eliminate the unstable factors in Snow Village was just a side job.
After Asama Santayu left, Yoruha's lips curled into a slight smile.
"Ten million taels, that's truly an unimaginable number."
Although Ye Yu wasn't obsessed with money, 1000 million taels was enough to make him live comfortably for the rest of his life.
How could he not be happy?
Just as the group was about to arrive in the Land of Snow.
Fubuki has returned to the Land of Snow and told Fuuka Naoto about the previous battle.
Feng Hua Nu Tao, sitting on top, had a gloomy expression.
"Xiaoxue actually hired such a strong ninja. Is that Konoha ninja really not Kakashi?"
Fubuki knelt on one knee in front of Fuuka Nutō, shook her head and said, "Absolutely not, Kakashi isn't that terrifying."
Are you sure that kid is really just a child?
Feng Hua Nu Tao could hardly believe it, because it was too unbelievable.
He had never seen it before.
Kakashi in the past was already enough to shock him.
The gap between the small ninja village and the large ninja village is huge.
But now Fubuki tells him that a Konoha ninja the same age as Kakashi back then has instantly annihilated Wolf Fang Avalanche and Rain Sleet.
He was so shocked that if it weren't for the fact that the person who told him this was Fubuki, he would have suspected that he had been deceived.
Fubuki shuddered at the thought of Yoru's calm expression.
She is still very afraid of Ye Yu.
Even just thinking about his appearance makes her tremble with fear.
"There's absolutely no mistake, that guy is definitely just a kid, no more than 15 years old."
Feng Hua Nu Tao stared at Fubuki with a gloomy expression, and for a moment, the entire room fell silent.
After a long while, Feng Hua Nu Tao frowned and said, "So Xiao Xue really did hire a remarkable ninja to help her, but even the most powerful ninja is useless. With this chakra armor, ninjutsu is useless against me."
Fubuki looked up and glanced at the raging waves.
Then he lowered his head again.
He said in a trembling voice, "But he killed both the sleet and the wolf-tooth avalanche with ninjutsu."
