Not long after.
On the clean floor, an ancient-looking teleportation array emerged.
The teleportation array glowed with a faint blue light, flickering mysteriously.
A moment later.
The blue light on the teleportation array suddenly intensified.
"Buzz~"
Accompanied by a buzzing sound, four figures appeared before Bai Hao.
"Greetings, Saint Lord!"
Karin and Izumi simultaneously removed their straw hats, then knelt on one knee and bowed to Bai Hao.
Ye Cang and Ameyuri Ringo, who were behind them, also knelt down upon seeing this.
"Mm~"
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Bai Hao's eyes.
Then, he nodded expressionlessly.
"These are the new mission cards, and also the mission items.
You two go do your missions first."
Saying this, he threw two mission cards, a bottle of medicine for terminal illnesses, and a Kameni Silver Elf Card to Izumi and Karin.
The two accepted the items, took the cards, glanced at them, and then bowed again.
"As you command!"
With that.
They returned directly to the teleportation array.
Then, they left the bookstore via the teleportation array.
After seeing the two leave.
Bai Hao turned to look at Ye Cang and Ameyuri Ringo.
"Karin and Violet should have already told you the rules, right?"
"Yes!"
Both answered at the same time.
Ameyuri Ringo had little loyalty to the Hidden Mist Village.
After discovering how powerful this organization was, she was determined to join.
The former Ye Cang was a hero of Sunagakure.
Yet, she was betrayed by the Kazekage.
Sent directly to the Hidden Mist Village to die.
Therefore, Ye Cang felt despair at the dark politics of Sunagakure.
And by extension, despair for the entire Ninja World.
At the same time, she also harbored hatred in her heart.
She wanted revenge on Sunagakure, and revenge on the Hidden Mist Village!
And after being resurrected and discovering that her power had increased due to the resurrection.
She became curious about the Elf Pavilion, such a mysterious and powerful organization.
She yearned for even greater power.
She no longer wanted to be a hero.
Thus, she came very obediently.
"Very good."
Bai Hao nodded, then extended his hands.
"Since you have made your decision.
Then sign the contract with me.
Once the contract is signed.
Your lives will be controlled by me.
I can instantly obliterate you.
Think it through, then place your hands on mine."
Ye Cang and Ameyuri Ringo exchanged glances upon hearing this.
Then, together, they placed their hands on Bai Hao's hands.
They had already thought it through when they came.
So.
Although Bai Hao looked very young, like a 12-year-old child.
But.
They did not overthink it because of that.
"Buzz~"
As the two signed the contract.
An identical "X" shaped tattoo also appeared on their bodies.
Ameyuri Ringo's tattoo was on the outer side of her right knee, where she tied her ninja tool pouch.
Ye Cang's was on her back.
"Alright, next, I will bestow power upon you."
Saying that.
Bai Hao took out two diamond cards.
The groudon card and Zekrom Card, which originally did not show matching characters.
Now displayed their names.
So.
Bai Hao infused the Zekrom Card into Ameyuri Ringo's body.
And the groudon card into Ye Cang's body.
This time, it was the same as when he gave Izumi the Mew Card last time.
Not a single trace of Chakra leaked out.
Because Bai Hao had prepared in advance.
There would be no more Chakra leakage like the first time he used the Phoenix King Card.
Looking at the two new organization members who had already fainted.
Bai Hao nodded in satisfaction.
Then walked towards the bookstore attic.
In the bookstore attic, Rin Nohara had been confined here for over a month.
Now, her teammates had finally been found.
It was time for Bai Hao to go see her.
"Saint Lord."
Upon seeing Bai Hao approach.
Rin knelt on one knee and bowed very obediently.
Completely different from how she initially tried to negotiate with Bai Hao.
"Very good.
I have found your teammates."
Bai Hao said expressionlessly, "You can prepare yourself.
By the afternoon.
You will be able to go on missions together."
"Yes!"
...
"This time, our mission is actually to deliver medicine to that person..."
Inside the Elf Pavilion's Land of Fire stronghold.
Karin said while looking at Izumi.
She knew about Izumi's relationship with Uchiha Itachi.
So, she was very curious.
What Izumi's reaction would be after knowing Bai Hao's mission.
"Yes~
I also didn't expect our next meeting to come so quickly."
Izumi turned to Karin upon hearing this, then smiled slightly.
Her big eyes immediately turned into crescent shapes.
Very gentle.
"However.
Giving him medicine is quite good.
The Saint Lord's meaning is that he has a terminal illness.
Without this medicine.
He won't live for 4 years.
So, the Saint Lord's intention really suits my wishes~
After all.
Only if Itachi lives long.
Can he feel pain for a longer time.
How many floors must a bag of rice carry!"
"Uh..."
Karin looked at Izumi, who was still smiling very gently.
Her heart suddenly turned cold.
"This... this girl hasn't turned dark, has she!?"
"Karin.
Let's go."
"Uh...
Alright... alright!"
The two girls left the secret stronghold and hurried towards Konoha Village.
Although they didn't know where Itachi was.
