Chapter 30 Sure Enough, There Is Something To Hide

Lin Yan's Observation Haki has been cultivated to the highest level.

At this time, he clearly heard Rocky's inner thoughts by casting Observation Haki on him.

This guy is indeed hiding something from Kakashi and others.

The mission level this time was indeed A-level, but he deliberately concealed the threats he might encounter.

Therefore, Konoha Village set the level of this mission as B level.

The charging price is also calculated based on B-level tasks.

After hearing Rocky's inner thoughts, Lin Yan sneered and walked towards him.

"You are dishonest."

Lin Yan stared at Rocky and smiled.

"I, I didn't..."

"Everyone, I am indeed unaware of this matter. I made my judgment based on the previous situation..."

Rocky wanted to quibble.

At this time, Kakashi obviously couldn't stand it anymore. He frowned and said, "You are a famous big businessman in Tang Country. You should not be short of that little money."

"If you don't tell the truth, according to the commission agreement, we have the right to terminate this mission."

After hearing what Kakashi said, Rocky's expression finally changed slightly.

His expression darkened, and he lowered his head slightly, seeming a little embarrassed.

Facing the gazes of three scorching eyes, Rocky finally couldn't resist the pressure in his heart and sighed.

"Alas! Everyone, I'm very sorry that I didn't tell the truth..."

"But I have my own reasons for doing this. I really have no choice."

Rocky explained his difficulties.

It turns out that he is indeed a famous businessman in Tang Country.

Over the years, business has been going smoothly and I have made a lot of money.

But as the saying goes, when a family has money, it is easy for others to miss it.

Although Rocky is rich, he is just an ordinary person.

As his worth gets higher and higher, more and more people are eyeing him.

In the past few years, he has been attacked frequently wherever he went.

He escaped death several times, all thanks to the protection of the samurai and ninjas he hired.

But as the number of attacks increased, the ninjas who came to deal with him became stronger and stronger.

You need to pay a higher price to hire a warrior or ninja who is strong enough to protect you.

Rocky gradually became a little unable to afford such expenses.

And just last month, his daughter was kidnapped by a group of gangsters.

These people extorted more than 500 million taels of ransom from him.

Luo Qi pieced everything together and indeed saved his daughter.

But he also went bankrupt.

Although he is still a famous big businessman today.

But the funds that Rocky can use will not exceed one million.

He still had to do business and pay his customers.

This time I came to Konoha Village in the Land of Fire, and not many deals were made.

The money he earned was far from enough to afford the cost of entrusting ninjas to perform A-level tasks.

So he secretly played a trick and deliberately concealed the level of the real crisis he faced.

Kakashi's face didn't change when he heard what he said.

Itachi on the side frowned slightly, waiting for Kakashi, the captain and senior, to make a decision.

In his heart, he sympathized with Rocky's experience.

And I also believe that what Rocky said is true.

Although the ninja world seems peaceful now, in fact the life of ordinary people is not that easy.

There were bandits running around outside the village.

In addition, there were some homeless ronin samurai who also went astray.

In addition, the rebel ninjas from various countries are also the main force in blocking roads, robbing, stealing, killing and selling goods.

These people specifically targeted traveling merchants.

Because the starting point is often deep in the mountains and forests, or on inaccessible roads.

So their success rate is very high.

And businessmen like Rocky, who have money in their hands, are one of the easiest targets for bad guys to target.

But I sympathize with Rocky in my heart.

But Itachi didn't speak.

First of all, he is not the captain.

Furthermore, professional ninjas must never believe anyone's words easily.

They are still not 100% sure whether what Rocky said is true or false. Personal subjective belief does not affect the objective facts.

So I have to wait for Kakashi-senpai to make a decision.

If Kakashi decides to terminate this mission, they need to return to Konoha Village immediately.

As for Rocky, because he violated the entrustment agreement, the money will not be returned to him.

And he could only find someone else to protect him and return to Tang Country.

Rocky was overjoyed when he heard this, with a look of gratitude on his face.

He's too willful.

"I thought it was a big deal, but it is!"

"Let us complete this mission later."

"What? Am I not a member of the team?"

"Then don't worry, Uncle Rocky. If what you say is true, no matter what happens today, we will send you back to the Country of Tang safely and soundly."

Kakashi frowned deeply again when he heard Lin Yan's words.

Itachi, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke at this moment.

As if feeling the tense atmosphere at the scene, he awkwardly smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, everyone."

This guy, as expected, Third Generation-sama’s worries are not unreasonable.

With their promise, I should be safe this time.

He could clearly see Lin Yan's action just now.

"If you don't want to go together, then you can go back to the village. I can handle it by myself."

At this time, Lin Yan had already waved his hand.

"I said just protect him and go back to Tang Country."

"It's all my fault that you have to face so many unknown dangers..."

Rocky looked at Kakashi and then at Lin Yan.

Kakashi took a deep breath and explained calmly.
