ACSP: Chapter 29: Kushina's Commission, it seems I must go all out this time!
The 10-minute preparation time passed in a flash.
[Preparation time ended]
[Nine-Tailed Night secret realm · Opening...]
As a prompt sound rang out.
The originally peaceful Konoha Village was instantly shrouded in a suffocating atmosphere.
At this moment.
Everyone in Konoha Village felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.
Even the original inhabitants were the same.
"——Boom!"
Suddenly.
A loud noise came from outside the Village.
Judging by the sound, it seemed like some explosive tags had been detonated.
"It seems Minato Namikaze has clashed with Uchiha Obito."
Jiang Chen looked up in the direction the sound came from; that was exactly where Uzumaki Kushina was giving birth, Biwako.
However, before he could make his next move.
A yellow figure had already silently appeared in Minato Namikaze's home, holding a naked baby in his arms.
So fast.
Is this the Flying Thunder God Technique?
Jiang Chen knew his opportunity had arrived, so he immediately burst through the door.
"Lord Fourth, did something happen over at Biwako's side?"
Minato Namikaze didn't expect someone to be waiting in his home, and he couldn't help but be startled after seeing Jiang Chen.
However, Minato was currently consumed with thoughts of his wife's safety, so he didn't give it much thought.
"Yes, we were attacked by a masked man. Please help me look after my son; I still need to go save his mother, and I'll be back soon."
When Minato Namikaze said this, a mission box suddenly appeared before Jiang Chen's eyes.
[Mission Issued: Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze entrusts you to help look after Uzumaki Naruto (Infant)]
[Mission Reward: Minato Namikaze Favorability +10 (Limited to this secret realm), EXP +300]
[Accept?]
"Rest assured, Lord Fourth, I will definitely guard this place well."
Although the rewards for this mission weren't much, Jiang Chen still decisively accepted the mission.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Minato Namikaze glanced at Jiang Chen, then placed the Uzumaki Naruto in his arms onto the bed and carefully covered him with a blanket.
"Naruto, stay here for a moment. I'm going to save your mother right now."
"—Whoosh!"
The moment his voice fell, his figure vanished from the spot.
The speed was so fast that even Jiang Chen couldn't catch it.
"As expected of the Yellow Flash, this speed is truly incredible."
Jiang Chen sighed with emotion.
Although he had been honing his combat skills over the past few days.
He knew very well in his heart that there was still a huge gap between himself and these characters who possessed both skill and strength.
Not just in technique, but also in tactical thinking.
However, these things could only be sharpened in actual combat; being anxious was useless.
"—Whoosh!"
Just as he was thinking this, Minato Namikaze's figure appeared in the room once again.
And this time, he was carrying a weak, red-haired woman in his arms.
It was none other than the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Kushina.
[Task Notification: Congratulations on completing the commission from the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. You have gained 10 points of favorability with Minato Namikaze and 300 experience points.]
The notification sound rang out.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
In just a few seconds, his task was already completed?
No, that's not right.
The plot of the secret realm was still continuing.
He hadn't been teleported out either.
It seemed the task wasn't over yet.
Jiang Chen didn't yet know that this secret realm had mutated into a Tailed Beast secret realm.
He was still foolishly grinding it as if it were a Novice Secret Realm.
However, his strongest trait was his adaptability and ability to go with the flow.
Since the secret realm's plot was still going on and he hadn't been teleported out, he would just keep grinding.
"Little brother, thank you for helping me look after Naruto."
Minato Namikaze thanked Jiang Chen, then carried Kushina to Naruto's side.
"Naruto…"
With the Nine-Tailed extracted, Kushina knew she didn't have long to live. Looking at her newborn child, she burst into tears.
Minato Namikaze looked at Kushina and their child, his fists clenching suddenly.
He didn't speak, but silently walked over to the wardrobe.
Next was the iconic scene of Minato Namikaze putting on the Hokage's haori.
"Little brother, I have important business to attend to. Please help me look after Kushina and the child. I will be back soon."
After putting on the Hokage's haori, Minato Namikaze seemed like a different person; his eyes were determined, his gaze like a torch.
Afterward, he issued another commission to Jiang Chen.
Perhaps because there were more people to look after.
The rewards for this task were a bit higher.
Minato Namikaze's favorability increased to 20 points, and the experience points rose from 300 to 600.
Jiang Chen still didn't refuse and gladly accepted the task.
"—Boom!"
It was right at this moment.
A loud noise suddenly came from the Village.
Immediately after.
A beast's roar that shook the heavens erupted, breaking the peace of Konoha Village.
Fear, like the descent of night, instantly enveloped the entire Village.
The Nine-Tailed had arrived!
Minato Namikaze knew the situation was urgent; he said a brief goodbye to Kushina and then left immediately.
Jiang Chen originally wanted to look through the window to see the situation outside.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Kushina's voice suddenly sounded from behind: "You have the aura of the Nine-Tailed on you. I don't know who you are, but I can feel that you have no ill intentions. Naruto and I are safe here. That masked man is controlling the Nine-Tailed, and I worry Minato is no match for him. Can you go and help Minato?"
The task box appeared again:
[Task Issued: Accept Uzumaki Kushina's commission to help Minato Namikaze deal with the Nine-Tailed and the mysterious masked man.]
[Task Rewards: Power of the Nine-Tails, Sealing Technique: Adamantine Sealing Chains, 20,000 experience points.]
[Accept?]
Holy crap!
Are the rewards for Novice Secret Realm exploration missions this generous now?
Looking at the sudden task information before him, Jiang Chen's breathing began to quicken.
He hadn't expected that by helping City Lord Li Hongfei just to go through the motions, he would actually stumble upon such a windfall.
Anyone who has watched Naruto knows that when the Six Paths Sage split the Ten-Tails back then, he divided the Ten-Tails' power into 10 parts.
The Nine-Tailed took nine parts by itself.
And the remaining part was split equally among the other eight Tailed Beasts.
Therefore, the Nine-Tailed's power has always been the strongest Tailed Beast power in Naruto, bar none.
Jiang Chen had never dreamed.
That he would actually manage to grind for the Power of the Nine-Tails reward in a Novice Secret Realm exploration instance.
Although he already possessed this ability within his Naruto template.
But even if he couldn't use this good item himself.
It would be great to trade it for something of the same level!
"Rest assured, I will definitely bring the Fourth Hokage back safely!"
Jiang Chen did not hesitate and decisively accepted Kushina's task.
However, task rewards are often equal to the task's difficulty.
Wanting to obtain the Power of the Nine-Tails and that high-level Sealing Technique would be no easy feat.
It seemed that this time, he would have to go all out.
