Three days later.
9:00 AM.
Inside the Hokage's office.
Rokuro was staring at Hiruzen with a look of pure disbelief.
Hiruzen's head was pounding!
He had originally intended to dump a huge pile of tedious missions on Rokuro to make him so sick of them that he would stop doing them.
But he didn't expect...
The more Rokuro did, the more energetic he became.
The eighty-something missions given to him on the second day were cleared out by Rokuro in just two days.
Yesterday, out of options!
He squeezed out another thirty-something missions and handed them over to Rokuro.
The result...
Rokuro finished them all in one day!
He really had absolutely no D-Rank missions left here!
Even if he wanted to find some!
He couldn't!
In the past, he only worried about having D-Rank missions that no one wanted to do.
He never expected that today, he would actually be worrying about not having any D-Rank missions.
Looking at Rokuro's disbelieving eyes, Hiruzen said with a headache, "Rokuro, I can understand your desire to contribute to Konoha, but I really don't have any missions here right now. How about you rest for a few days?"
Rokuro was highly dissatisfied, staring at Hiruzen and saying, "Old man, are you slacking off? I work so hard, so why aren't you working seriously? Aren't missions supposed to be found by you? Are you just slacking and not wanting to look for them?!"
"With you being so lazy!"
"How will Konoha develop and grow strong?!"
"Old man, you need to work hard! Hurry up and go out to accept some missions for me!"
Being lectured by Rokuro, Hiruzen's headache worsened. Right now, it was hard for him to refuse Rokuro because Konoha Village was taking a 20% cut of all the money Rokuro earned.
Taking a hard drag from his pipe, Hiruzen gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! Right now, I will have my subordinates lower the review requirements and funding for missions so you can take more. Is that okay?!"
Hearing this, Rokuro nodded repeatedly. "That's not bad; it should increase the number of missions quite a bit. But old man, you still need to think of other methods. If the ninjas have no missions to do, how will Konoha Village develop? How will the Genin train? Am I right or what?!"
Hiruzen cursed internally.
At his advanced age, he was actually being lectured by a little brat.
And he actually couldn't find a good way to refute it.
It was truly infuriating.
After grumbling inwardly for a moment, he hurriedly waved his hand. "Alright, you can go back to work now, right? Patients could show up at the hospital at any time. Stop wasting time here with me!"
Rokuro shot Hiruzen a glance and snorted coldly. "Old man, if you don't give me D-Rank missions to do, then I'm going to go do C-Rank missions. Don't blame me for leaving the village then. I'm working so hard for Konoha; you can't just not let me do missions!"
Hiruzen's expression twitched.
He completely didn't understand.
Those boring D-Rank missions... why was Rokuro so enthusiastic about doing them?
If someone asked him to do those missions, he'd be too lazy to bother.
Other ninjas were the same; basically no one was willing to do them.
Except for those Genin who had just graduated and needed to accumulate mission experience, truly no one wanted to do them.
Watching Rokuro leave looking so smug, Hiruzen felt very depressed.
To actually be lectured by a little brat over this matter, he felt like a massive failure!
Therefore!
He called for Kochi.
He ordered Kochi to lower the required posting fee for D-Rank missions from 100,000 ryo to 50,000 ryo.
This way, those clients who originally couldn't afford the price of a D-Rank mission would come to post missions. When the time came, there would be enough missions for that bastard Rokuro to do.
After arranging all this.
Hiruzen still didn't feel quite satisfied.
He sent people to notify the various large and small clans in the village, asking them to put up some money and post missions for gathering medicinal herbs and doing odd jobs. Anyway, they had to pay to hire people to gather herbs and do labor, so they might as well issue missions to the village and let Rokuro do them.
After doing all this.
Hiruzen finally felt a bit more relaxed.
With these two orders, a massive pile of missions should be added. However, other ninjas probably wouldn't do them because the price of 50,000 ryo was too low. Those ninjas would work for a whole day just to earn 50,000 ryo, and they still had to give 10,000 back to the village; doing them would basically be operating at a loss.
These missions.
Were specially prepared solely for Rokuro.
Only a guy like him, with infinite stamina and infinite Chakra, could do them without taking a loss.
Once Hiruzen's orders went down.
The effect was excellent.
Hiring a ninja to work for 50,000 ryo was incredibly cost-effective and economical.
Therefore!
Within a single day!
The newly added D-Rank missions in Konoha Village skyrocketed to over three hundred, and the number was continuously increasing. This made Hiruzen instantly satisfied, and he dumped all the accepted missions onto Rokuro.
He just had to see!
How long Rokuro could hold out!
If one day Rokuro decided he didn't want to do them anymore!
He would have the excuse to call him over and give him a proper scolding.
That smelly brat had used this reason to lecture him; he was going to use the exact same reason to throw it right back in his face.
