Chapter 216
"Uncle Dai, where is Kai?" Shilang looked around but did not see Kai. Generally speaking, Kai would never give up training, so if Dai was there, he should be there too.
"Hoo~hoo, Akai went for a run over there, he should be back soon."
Shi Lang looked at Dai, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and said with a smile: "Uncle Dai, you should take a rest. Don't hurt yourself and it will be more trouble than gain."
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
"Come on, except for Kai's training, when have you ever had any sense of propriety?" Shiro could only respond to Dai's answer with a roll of his eyes.
"That was in the past. Now that conditions have improved, we can naturally relax a bit."
"Heh, just a reminder, Uncle Dai, although you are now a special jonin, you haven't taken any missions yet, which means you still have no money."
Hearing this, Dai suddenly turned gray and stood there like a stone statue.
A moment later.
“Damn it!!!”
Silang looked at Dai who was hammering the ground with amusement. Things like this were what Silang liked to watch the most, because only then could he feel that he was a rich man!
"Uncle Dai, once you've recovered your strength, get up and rest for a while. Stop hammering the ground and get some rest. The sooner you recover, the sooner you can go on your mission."
"Oh, don't think about it, I don't have any tasks for the time being."
"Hmm? Why? The village shouldn't be without missions, right? I haven't heard of any expansion or reduction in staffing."
"It's not the village, it's my problem."
"Uncle Dai, what's your problem? The village knows your strength, so they shouldn't restrict you, right?"
"It's not a restriction. The village's arrangement is that I will be a special jonin for a period of time. When I have enough merits, I will be promoted to jonin. Then, depending on the situation, I will be promoted to elite jonin."
“Isn’t this a good thing?”
"But this means that I will be promoted to Jonin very quickly, but each team will basically be one Jonin with a few Chunin or Genin. Except for special teams, it will be composed of this."
"That's nothing, right? Uncle Dai is very powerful even without opening the door. He should be able to convince the others. If that doesn't work, we can just take on a higher-intensity fighter and let them see."
"That's not the problem. The team leader is also responsible for imparting some mission experience to the team members, but you also know my situation."
"Well, this is indeed difficult."
This is indeed a problem. As a Genin who has been around for thousands of years, how could he have the chance to take on any high-level tasks? If Shiro hadn't pulled him along this time, this rough diamond of his would still be buried.
Therefore, you can ask him to fight, but if you want him to impart mission experience, sorry, he is learning it himself.
The village's one high and two low model is designed to cultivate more talents for the village.
Some who have shown their talents in school, that is, those in the elite class, are usually guided by the team leader until they are promoted to Jonin. Only then will they disband the team and lead a new group of students or a new independent team.
But the Ninja School does not only have those few geniuses, and it does not rule out the possibility that there are late bloomers among those outside the elite class. Therefore, this rule was established.
Generally, there is a Jonin who leads two Chunins, and in the process, they are gradually taught some mission experience, allowing them to learn more and improve their abilities.
What Dai lacks most is mission experience
It's impossible for him to teach them physical skills. They are just teammates, not students.
Therefore, the village is now very troubled about how to arrange Dai. It would be a bit of a waste to let him team up with the senior ninjas, as few missions require such strong combat power.
Let him and the Chunin, but it would be unfair to the two Chunins because they wouldn't learn anything.
Generally speaking, those who can become Chunin have some talent and perseverance, because those who cannot persist would have quit at the level of Genin to Chunin.
Moreover, now that Dai had become a special case, they were even more cautious in their decisions regarding this type of people. What if there were other talented people like Dai among them? Who could say for sure?
Therefore, this directly led to Dai being promoted to Special Jonin for 6 days, and still no news about his teammates.
The village does have several special organizations composed of senior ninjas, but those organizations themselves have relatively great power. Dai's strength is enough, but in terms of merit, it is far from enough.
Therefore, even if Dai has recovered from his injuries now, he probably won't be able to complete the mission because he has to be on standby at all times and wait for notification from the village.
"By the way, Shiro, what can I do for you? You shouldn't be here for training at this hour, right?"
"Well, I have something to talk to Akai about, so I'd like to treat you to a meal. I'll be applying to leave the village for training soon, so it might be a long time before we meet again."
"Is it because of the recent rumors in the village?"
"Partly, maybe. If I leave temporarily, it will calm down faster."
"Yeah, that's right. Be careful then."
"Don't worry, Uncle Dai, don't you know me? How could I possibly take such a risk?"
"Hahaha, that's right. Let's go. Akai should be in that direction. Let's go there and wait for him."
"Um."
Same as always, it’s still a barbecue restaurant.
Shiro's favorite things in Konoha are barbecue and ramen, because these are closest to his eating habits in his previous life. Therefore, any gathering he initiates is usually held in a barbecue restaurant or a ramen restaurant.
However, the atmosphere right now wasn't suitable for a ramen restaurant. Besides, with their digestive abilities, a yakiniku restaurant might be a bit more cost-effective.
While the barbecue was still not ready, Shiro began to explain some things to Kai.
"Akai, have you been able to beat Kakashi recently?"
"Well, the last duel was half a month ago, and I lost. But I've improved a lot now. If we fight again, I'll definitely win!"
"But Kakashi isn't in great shape right now, so it's not a good time to do it. I'll challenge him again once he recovers!"
"That's a good attitude, but there's no need for that later. I'll give you a task. Continue to challenge Kakashi as you always have. If you complete it, I can grant you one request."
"The reward is fine, but wouldn't it be a bad idea now? That's what happened to him."
"That's why I asked you to challenge him and give him something to do. Otherwise, I'm afraid he'll get stuck in a rut and be taken advantage of. How about it? Can you do it?"
"Sure!" Kai answered with great vigor, then immediately turned around and started talking about conditions, "Then Brother Silang, my request is..."
"Anything except tights and watermelon hair!"
"..." Dai and Kai immediately lowered their heads like wilted eggplants. "It's boring."
Seeing this, Shilang rolled his eyes. Sure enough, the father and son were still thinking about him.
"That's all you want to pursue, but Kai, you can use this as a bet with Kakashi. Wouldn't that give you enough motivation?"
The corners of Shilang's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an evil smile like a Husky.
