Patriarch, I have no enmity or enmity with you, so why should I repay you with kindness?
Nara Langui stared at the old patriarch with faint eyes, not speaking, just watching.
But even just this look made the old patriarch feel uncomfortable, and he looked away awkwardly.
Everyone is a ninja from the Nara clan.
Who has no idea whether being the patriarch is a good thing or a bad thing?
"Ahem..."
Nara Kano coughed twice and was about to change the topic.
"Clan leader."
Nara Langui suddenly said.
"If I really become the leader of our Nara clan, can I only enjoy my rights and not fulfill my obligations?"
For Nara Langui, taking on the role of the new leader of the Nara clan is not a purely bad thing.
After previous experiments, he knew that he could not issue tasks to himself.
But the family can!
If Nara Langui really becomes the leader of the Nara clan, wouldn't it be up to him to decide how many S-level tasks he wants to complete and how many S-level secret scrolls he wants to harvest?
As for the identity of the clan leader, the responsibilities and burdens it brings...
Isn't Nara Langui thinking of a solution?
"Only enjoying rights and not fulfilling obligations? How can there be such a good thing in the world——"
Nara Kano originally wanted to reject the other party's words directly, but as he spoke, he suddenly paused and changed the subject.
"It's not impossible."
"Um?"
This time it was Nara Langui's turn to be shocked.
Can he really get only the benefits without any fatigue?
"Ahem, what about that? Let's put your matter of being the clan leader aside for now. I want to discuss the feasibility of it with the other elders in the family and our contemporary clan leader."
Nara Kano temporarily skipped this topic, not wanting to expand too much.
"As for this S-level mission reward...
“The family’s capabilities and conditions are here, so I won’t talk nonsense.
"First of all, I will hold a clan gathering to let you, Lan Gui, become the elder of our Nara clan.
“Secondly, the previously set amount of research guarantee funds is too low, so we will temporarily increase it to three million taels per month.
"Finally... it's the same as before. If you have any ninjutsu, ninja tools or other things you want, tell your family and they will try their best to find them for you."
The youngest family elder in the history of the Nara clan.
Receive capped rewards for three A-level tasks every month without leaving home.
The rest of the rewards are up to you.
This is the "reward" Nara Kano had in mind.
But it can also be seen from this that the Nara clan really has nothing to reward except money.
Nara Langui nodded silently.
In the final analysis, the Nara clan is just a middle-level occult ninja clan.
There is some heritage in the family, but not much.
Such a situation will also cause certain interference to Nara's action plan after taking over the crown.
Because it is clear that the family cannot provide enough rewards.
Nara Langui insists on sharing high-level secrets with the family and digs out S-level tasks from the family...
That situation is so strange!
so……
Nara Langui thought for a moment and said, "This time, I do have something I want, and I want to entrust it to the clan leader."
"Say it!"
The old patriarch perked up and couldn't wait to urge him.
But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he quickly added another sentence.
"If Lan Gui you are talking about chakra crystal... the family really hasn't found any news about it yet!"
"It's not [Chakra Crystal]."
Nara Langui raised his right hand, revealing the ring inlaid with [Chakra Crystal].
"But it does have something to do with [Chakra Crystal]."
Nara Shikano's brows relaxed slightly, listening to the other party's words quietly.
"Clan leader, do you still remember the secret that you didn't unfold in detail when you were at the Temple of Fire?"
Nara Langui resonates [Chakra Crystal], and the surface of the hexagonal indigo gem blooms with a layer of gleaming light.
"You once said that [Chakra Crystals] can be replenished more effectively within the scope of the Fire Temple.
"But at that time you said that I was not strong enough to touch that secret.
"Now, may I ask, what exactly does the so-called 'effective supplement' refer to?"
Nara Shikano breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's the problem..."
Some time ago, the news that Nara Langui's team destroyed two elite teams of the Iwagakure blasting force, and also captured alive an Iwagakure elite jounin with the limit of Explosive Escape Blood Raid, caused quite a stir in the Leaf Village. waves.
It's just that the Nara Guangui team was not in the village at that time, and they did not feel the amazing impact of that record.
But Nara Kano knew it.
In the earlier battle to defend Platycodon Castle, Nara Langui almost single-handedly destroyed most of the elite puppet troops in Sunagakure Village!
In Nara Kano's eyes, the defeat of the demolition troops in Iwagakure Village was definitely due to Nara's victory!
A ninja of this strength is indeed enough to access the secrets of that level...
"The reason why chakra crystals can be replenished more effectively within the Fire Temple."
Nara Kano frankly confessed.
"It's because around the Fire Temple, there is a kind of energy that is vaster and greater than ordinary chakra. It is called 'natural energy' by the ninja monks of the Fire Temple."
It is indeed natural energy!
Nara Langui was not surprised to hear this special word from the clan leader.
The old patriarch stroked his beard, and for some reason, he suddenly had an unpleasant feeling in his heart.
I only heard Nara Langui say: "Chief, I want to know more about the research on natural energy."
I knew that Lan Gui would not be satisfied with just a name of "natural energy"!
Nara Kano's mouth felt bitter.
Although he, the former patriarch of the Nara clan, had gained some superficial knowledge about natural energy through the scrolls passed down by his family and his own rich life experience.
But where can Nara Kano know specific research on natural energy?
However, Nara Langui's words did not end there.
"In addition to this, I also hope to acquire some other ninjutsu."
Nara Langui spoke calmly.
"Ninjutsu that can manipulate, influence, and even use natural energy."
"The ninjutsu you are talking about has a professional name called 'senjutsu'."
Nara Kano rubbed his head in pain.
"In the ninja world, there are indeed several places with clear inheritance of celestial arts. They are the three legendary holy places.
“Miaomu Mountain, Longdi Cave, and Shigu Forest.
"There are three ninjas in our Konoha village who happened to have signed psychic contracts with these three legendary holy places. One of them even has a family contract. They are the three ninjas of Konoha.
"I just want to get the inheritance of senjutsu from the hands of the Sannin..."
The sad look on Nara Shikano's old face became more and more obvious.
But I looked at the three ninjutsu next to them: [Shadow Imitation Technique], [Shadow Manipulation Technique], and [Shadow Exercise Technique]...
The old patriarch gritted his teeth and agreed to Nara Langui's request.
"Anyway, I know this.
"But regarding the knowledge of 'immortal magic', I can only say that you will do your best. Lan Gui, don't have too high expectations."
Except for the Sannin.
The Nara clan has another way to contact the existence of "senjutsu".
It's not any other place, it's the Fire Temple that Nara Langui just mentioned.
Kanano Nara knew very well that as the Fire Temple inherited the ninja philosophy of the Six Paths Sage, it definitely contained knowledge about celestial magic and natural energy!
However, the difficulty level of obtaining "senjutsu" from the Fire Temple is not much lower than obtaining "senjutsu" from the Sannin.
But it is still a feasible way...
'What a trouble...a happy and painful trouble. '
Nara Shika sighed in ambition.
'Why am I always dealing with this problem? '
"Thank you very much, patriarch!"
Nara Langui smiled and thanked the old patriarch.
"If there is nothing else, I will resign first."
"Go ahead..."
Nara Shikano waved his hand, but made up his mind.
'We must discuss with the family elders about changing the clan leader! '
Farewell to the old patriarch.
Nara Langui summoned a shadow deer and walked slowly outside the clan.
'Finally, I have made a qualified request to the clan leader that will make him feel painful but not offend...'
Nara Langui recalled the sad expression of the old clan leader just now and couldn't help but smile.
'The Three Holy Lands have the inheritance of immortal arts, but the relationship between the Nara clan and the Sannin is not as close as imagined. '
'In contrast, the Nara clan has a close relationship with the Fire Temple. '
'I just don't know where the patriarch will work hard...'
'This is still a win-win situation for me and my family. My family wins once and I win twice! '
While traveling.
Nara Langui called out the panel and checked the few lines of messages that he had just skipped.
[You have submitted to the client a C-level magic scroll [Shadow Imitation], a B-level magic scroll [Shadow Manipulation], and an A-level magic scroll [Shadow Exercise]! 】
[S-level mission [Shadow Imitation Technique] has been completed! 】
[You get an S-level [Ninja Secret Scroll]! 】
'The S-level missions triggered from the family are completed faster! '
Nara Langui's mind moved slightly, and he checked the [Ninja Secret Scroll] column facing him.
'I don't know what rewards will be found in the scroll this time...'
'According to previous experience, the reward for the family's S-level mission will be based on one's mastery of Ninjutsu, to create a new S-level secret Ninjutsu...'
Nara Langui did not hesitate and directly opened the S-level [Ninja Secret Scroll] on the panel.
