151: Chapter 151 Consultant CareerThe next day, sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto the mahogany desk, where Samui sat with a serious expression, processing documents.
Naruto leaned back on the soft sofa, with Kurotsuchi sitting upright beside him.
"President, this is the procurement report sent by Wuyin."
Samui stood up and stretched his shoulders, then respectfully handed Naruto a document."The Mizukage wishes to increase the quantity of chakra metal he is purchasing."
Naruto took it with one hand, and his right arm naturally rested on Kurotsuchi's side.
Black Earth trembled all over.
"take it easy."
Naruto flipped through the reports."The security advisor needs to be close by, otherwise how can he protect me?"
These words were spoken with such confidence that Heitu opened his mouth but couldn't find a suitable reason to refute them.
Today she was wearing the uniform skirt issued by the Chamber of Commerce, a dark blue short skirt with a white shirt, supposedly for ease of movement, but wasn't the skirt a bit too short?
"Then, Chairman, please take a look at the documents first." Kuroto tried to stand up.
"Sit down."
Naruto gently patted with his right hand, "Give me a massage, I had a stiff neck last night."
Hei Tu took a deep breath.
Endure!For the great cause of Iwagakure!
She turned to the side and placed her hands on Naruto's collar.
Samyi continued his report in a soft voice.
"The Konoha Elder Council sent an official letter expressing deep regret over the previous explosion and reiterating that Konoha had nothing to do with the incident."
"A guilty conscience needs no accuser."
Naruto gave a lazy review.
He suddenly leaned back, his head resting right in Heitu's arms.
Hei Tu was completely stunned.
Keep pressing.
Naruto said with his eyes closed.
Kurotsuchi gritted her teeth and began to gently massage Naruto's temples with her fingers, her movements clearly out of rhythm.
She could feel the back of Naruto's head touching her!
That bastard definitely did it on purpose!
The office door opened, and Sakura walked in carrying a flavored tea she had prepared.
She immediately spotted Kurotsuchi hugging Naruto so intimately.
"Chairman!Your tea!"
Sakura slammed the teacup down on the table, spilling a few drops of tea.
She glared fiercely at Hei Tu, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
Hei Tu stared at her, completely bewildered."Sister, I'm the one who's been wronged, okay?"
"Sakura has arrived just in time."
Naruto slightly opened his eyes."Help Samui organize the documents over there.She's a bit too busy to handle it all by herself."
Sakura put on a smiling face, "Yes!"
She walked quickly to Samui's side, deliberately blocking Heitu's view with her body, and began to carefully organize the documents.
Hei Tu rolled his eyes.
Fine, you're so high and mighty.
If you're so capable, why don't you become this cushion?
The pressure was applied to Naruto for a long time.
For Heitu, this moment felt like decades.
Naruto, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying it, occasionally offering pointers: "A little higher.yes, right there.push harder."
By the time Naruto finally sat up straight, Kurotsuchi was completely exhausted.
————
The afternoon meeting was even more outrageous, with Tsunade, Shizune, Hibari, Tessho, Deidara, and others sitting on either side of the long table.
Naruto sat in the head seat, with Kurotsuchi standing behind him as his security advisor.This was her own request; standing was better than sitting and letting others take advantage of her.
But she underestimated Naruto's creativity.
"Regarding the upgrade plan for the academy's defensive barrier."
Tsunade is speaking.
Naruto suddenly turned to look at Kurotsuchi, "I still feel a bit uncomfortable with my stiff neck."
All eyes turned to them.
Hei Tu's face instantly turned red.
In front of so many people?Has this guy gone mad?
But she didn't know how to refuse.
It's only right that the security consultant helps the chairman relieve fatigue.right?
She steeled herself and leaned forward.Just as she put her hand on Naruto's shoulder, she saw Deidara winking at her.
"Wow, President, you really know how to enjoy yourself."
Tsunade frowned and continued explaining her plan.
Silently, she lowered her head and pretended to take notes, her shoulders twitching occasionally.
Hibari observed Kurotsuchi's expression with great interest.As the head of intelligence, she was well aware of the Iwagakure young lady's undercover operations and was enjoying the show.
While giving Naruto a massage, Kurotsuchi cursed him eight hundred times in her mind.
A crazy thought kept attacking his brain: should he just strangle this bastard?The mission wasn't going well anyway; rather than letting him enjoy himself every day, he might as well die with him…
"Black soil".
Naruto suddenly spoke.
"Oh, what's wrong!"
Hei Tu came to his senses.
"You're using too much force, relax a bit."
"...yes."
————
As evening fell, the intelligence from Kirigakure arrived.
Hibari delivered it personally: "Guild Master, something has happened in Kirigakure."
Naruto opened the scroll and quickly browsed through it.
Samyi and Heitu both came over to look.
The scroll reads: "The three elders of Wuyin were assassinated at the same time last night, and their deaths occurred around the same time.No obvious traces were left at the scene.All three elders had publicly opposed the deep ties between Wuyin and the Apocalypse Merchant Guild before their deaths."
"Interesting." Naruto put the scroll down."What do they say from within Kirigakure?"
"There are two voices."
Hibari reported, "A very small number of people suspect that Lady Terumi Mei is purging dissidents, after all, she has just been restored to power and needs to establish her authority."
Most people believe that.it was a frame-up by foreign enemies.
The office was silent for a few seconds.
Naruto suddenly turned to Kurotsuchi: "Security advisor, who do you think killed him?"
Hei Tu's heart tightened.
She tentatively suggested, "Could someone be trying to evoke images of the Hidden Mist or the Chamber of Commerce excluding dissidents?"
"clever."
Naruto continued to ask, praising him.
"So, who do you think is most likely behind this assassination attempt?"
Heitu forced a smile, inwardly thinking, "What kind of death trap questions are these?"
Analyzing Iwagakure would be tantamount to admitting that Iwagakure is a suspect.
If we don't mention Iwagakure, then what is her value as an advisor to the young lady of Iwagakure?
"I..."
Her mind raced, and she finally managed to speak with difficulty.
"I think.it might be remnants of the Akatsuki."
"Oh?" Naruto raised an eyebrow."The reason?"
"Xiao Organization Skilled""Various bizarre methods,"
Kurotsuchi spoke with increasing confidence, "That Orochimaru, who had been lurking in Kirigakure for so long, must have left behind some tricks, and this feeling of killing without leaving a trace is very much like his style."
After saying that, Kurotsuchi secretly observed Naruto's expression.
"The analysis is good and makes sense."
Hei Tu breathed a sigh of relief.
"but..."
Naruto changed the subject, "If it's the Akatsuki, what would they do next?"
"It should be, they should continue to create chaos and sow discord between the merchant guild and the various ninja villages."
Heitu is trying to make himself more confident.
"So where will they start?"
Naruto's eyes were burning with anticipation, as if he were waiting for Kurotsuchi's answer.
The black soil got stuck again.
How could she know what the Akatsuki would think?
She doesn't even know what to do now!
"Hidden Clouds".
Samui suddenly interjected, "The Raikage has the deepest relationship with the Chamber of Commerce.If something happens to Kumogakure, it will be a win-win situation."
Naruto nodded: "Then if it were you, how would you attack Kumogakure?"
This question is asked of everyone.
Hibari thought for a moment: "A direct attack on the Raikage would be too difficult and could easily trigger a large-scale war.The more likely target is.Killer Bee."
"The tailed beast was extracted and brought back by Itachi.It was only sent back to Kumogakure after it was out of danger at the merchant hospital.If the old injury recurs or it even dies, the relationship between Kumogakure and the merchant guild is very likely to be strained."
Heitu was horrified.How could these people have such dark thoughts?
His every word is about human lives and scheming!
"So we need to remind Raikage to be on high alert," Samui said.
Naruto shook his head."Even if you guard against thieves for a thousand days, there will still be a moment of carelessness."
He paused for a moment, then looked at Heitu."Security advisor, what do you say?"
Why is it me again?Heitu was almost in tears.
She forced herself to try: "Should we take the initiative."
Naruto patted her approvingly, a gesture that gave Kurotsuchi goosebumps again."So next, we need to devise a countermeasure plan."
He stood up and walked to the ninja world map on the wall."The most likely hiding places for the remnants of Akatsuki are the Land of Hot Springs, the Land of Grass, or the border of the Land of Rain.Hibari, increase the reconnaissance efforts in these areas."
"clear."
"And the black soil.I may be making frequent inspections and going out in the next few days, so your task is very important."
Heitu's heart skipped a beat.
Going out frequently?Does that mean she'll always be by Naruto's side, continuing to make him more intimate with her?
"Where is the president going?"
She asked cautiously.
"Construction sites, ports, and."
Naruto paused for a moment, then said, "I might have to go to Tanabata Street to discuss a business deal."
Tanabata Street?Isn't that a famous entertainment district?
Black Soil suddenly had a bad feeling.
That evening, Heitu wrote a secret letter in his room.
This was the second time she had written a secret letter.
She didn't know that the previous message had been intercepted, read, and then sent.
"Grandpa, the Chamber of Commerce has noticed something unusual about the Kirigakure assassination and suspects that the Akatsuki organization is behind it."
"Naruto plans to take the initiative and search the three countries of Yu, Kusanagi, and Amane.Kurotsuchi."
After she finished writing, she checked it three times to make sure she hadn't revealed her true situation.For example, she would never have written about massage or service.
She rolled the secret letter into a small roll and stuffed it into a specially made hollow hairpin.
This is a technique used by the Hidden Rocks guild; it should be foolproof.
After doing all this, Heitu collapsed onto the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
At that moment, Naruto was standing on the rooftop, looking at the night view of the Land of Waves.
Samyi, standing behind him, reported softly: "Another secret letter has been sent from Black Soil.The content is similar to what we predicted.We have intercepted it and replaced it with the version we prepared."
"Um."
Naruto responded, "Let the old man from Iwagakure do his work.Searching the border?I don't have that much energy."
"That short story street."
"I'm going."
"We have to give our security consultant a chance to prove herself, otherwise her undercover work will feel very unfulfilling."
Samui, unusually, also burst into laughter, "You're so mean."
