New Mission!?

The next morning, when just slightly bright, Hao was woken up by a knock on the door.

"I'm coming."

The sleepy Hao went to the door and opened the door. He saw a dark clothed ninja standing at the door.

" Lord Hao, Hokage-sama and the three senior executives invite you to go to the Hokage office."

The Anbu ninja went straight to the point and said his intentions.

"Sarutobi-sensei and the three senior executives? I was suddenly called there so early in the morning…"

Hearing what the Anbu ninja brought, Hao suddenly lost his sleepiness.

It's okay if it's only the Hokage's summoning, but now it's actually the Hokage and the three high-level executives of Konoha summoned together, that is to say, Danzo is also there, and Hao, who reacted very fast, immediately sniffed out that this summoning was not simple..

"Wait a moment, please. I'll be right there."

Hao didn't neglect it. After simply washing, he put on his red pants and cloak and followed the Anbu ninja directly to the Hokage office building.

Five minutes later, the Hokage's office.

The Anbu ninja in front of Hao knocked on the door of the office.

"Come in."

He heard a familiar voice from the inside.

"Hokage-sama, Asakura Hao has been brought."

"Okay, you can leave first."

After entering the Hokage office.

Sure enough, Hao saw that in addition to the Third Hokage, there were the three other high-level elders of Konoha - Danzo , Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane.

This made Hao feel more vigilant. It seems that things are really not that simple...

"Here you are Hao. Sit down."

The Hokage still took special care of Hao as always. When he saw Hao coming in, he directly let him sit down.

"No need, Hokage-sama."

"The three elders of Konoha are here. How can I sit down?"

Seeing that today's summoning was for something extraordinary, Hao declined directly and said politely.

"Hiruzen, it seems that your newly received disciple is not only talented.."

However, Hao's moderate words and behaviour caused a burst of praise from the presence of Homura.

Wearing a pair of glasses, he is about the same age as the Hokage, and he looks the same as an ordinary old man, but he seems to have an extra momentum, because of standing in a position of power.

Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane, like Danzo, are the teammates of the Third Hokage when they were young.Now they assist the Hokage in managing Konoha's government affairs - the highest officers of the Administration Department.

They are equivalent to the elders in the village. First, they assists the work of the Hokage to give more correct opinions, and secondly, they act as a bridge between the Land of Fire and Konoha, to convey the message of the country and accept the financial expenditure allocated by the Daimyo to the village, and also reflect some of the situations of the village to Daimyo.

"Are you Asakura Hao?"

"Recently, we can often hear your genius name in the village."

Similarly, Koharu, was also looking at the handsome and long black-haired 'teen' in front of her and nodded with satisfaction.

"Both appearance and behaviour are impeccable. It seems that Hiruzen has received another good disciple..."

Receiving the praise of Koharu and Homura, Hao was neither humble nor arrogant, and they couldn't see any emotions on his calm face.

At the same time, Hao also secretly observed Danzo sitting quietly in the corner.

Since becoming a disciple of the Hokage, Danzo and Root's people have never troubled him. Hao couldn't help but wonder if that old fox had given up the idea of attracting himself..

"Cough..."

At this time, the Third Hokage coughed slightly, attracting everyone present to pay attention.

"Hao, we called you here today. There is a very special task for you."

Special task? Sure enough...

Hearing this, Hao's eyes flashed, knowing that the focus of this summoning was coming..

"Some time ago, we fought a bloody battle on the front line ,though Konoha..."

"The Ninja War finally has a favourable result for our village..."

After organising his thoughts, the Hokage directly opened his mouth and said, "Suna was defeated, and the Fourth Kazekage has agreed to the discussion and conditions we put forward."

Suna lost the battle...

Hearing the news from the Third Hokage, Hao was unmoved.

As a transmigrator, in fact, he knows the direction of this war better than the Hokage himself.

In this war, Suna's vitality was greatly damaged, and it had a great impact on Sunagakure. During the Third Ninja War, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind greatly reduced the investment of the village because of the defeat of Suna, and instead handed over their tasks to Konoha, forcing Sunagakure to embark on the road of elite cultivation, and allowing the the contradictions in the village to continue to deepen.

The birth of Gaara in the original plot is also a product of this special background.

"But our two villages have been fighting for many years and have accumulated grievances for a long time..."

"This time Suna Shinobi agreed to our terms and conditions, and this can also likely be a strategy adopted to paralyse us with carelessness."

Danzo, who had been sitting next to the Hokage and had never spoken, suddenly opened his mouth to take over the topic of The Hokage. His left eye stared deeply at Hao in front of him with and said in a low tone, "And you, Asakura Hao, are not only a disciple of Sarutobi, but also the 'adopted son' of Yakushi Nono."

"Yakushi Nono used to be the best spy ninja under me. You are her child and should inherit her spy talent more or less."

"Reliable intelligence is sometimes more lethal than powerful ninjutsu and weapons…"

"So for this mission, we hope you can sneak into Suna as a spy to find out whether the information about Suna's discussion is true."

Me?

Become a spy to sneak into Suna!?

After listening to Danzo, Hao's pupils suddenly shrank in disbelief.
