Chapter 457

Half a month after Gensuke's death, the vacant position of the Vortex Kingdom's Daimyo was taken over by his son. Masahiko's original plan was changed to an inheritance system, but the people of the Whirlpools didn't oppose it at all.

"For them, it's normal for Daimyo to be inherited from generation to generation."

In this way, Kushina's father, Uzumaki Incheon, became the second Daimyō of the Land of Whirlpools. With the assistance of the elite patrol team, he began to deal with the backlog of matters that had accumulated over the past half month, while Masahiko took the three members of the squad to Konoha.

This time, it wasn't because he was anxious, but because Kushina decided to bring Minato to the Land of Whirlpools in the future, she was eager to confirm Minato's thoughts. After all, she knew that Minato dreamed of becoming the Hokage.

"Also, my Salamander Ancestor hasn't charged Ri yet!" Masahiko thought.

In Konoha Village, Masahiko went straight to the Hokage Building while the three members went to Senshoku. They were going to tell Mito about what happened in the Land of Whirlpools these days.

"Elder Masahiko, you're back." Ri greeted him at the door.

Masahiko smiled. "You should know what happened in the Land of Whirlpools these days, right?"

Ri nodded, of course he knew about the change of Daimyo in the Land of Whirlpools.

"That's good, give me the money."

Ri Jin was startled, then nodded and took out ten million taels from the table behind him.

"This is a small gift from an ally."

Masahiko was stunned for a long time before he reacted, put the money in his pocket and stretched out his hand. "I want the reward for the task."

Ri: "…"

He wanted to ask Kuroto to return the ten million, but in the end, he didn't dare, but …

"Elder Masahiko, there was no Salamander in your previous task."

"I've already captured the old salamander ancestor for you. What else do you want?"

Ri smiled bitterly. "The one you caught … I don't know what species it is, so I don't dare to use it for the time being."

"It's really not a Salamander?" Masahiko was stunned. "Is its meat poisonous?"

Without waiting for Ri to answer, Masahiko continued. "Even if there is no Salamander, I have collected a lot of herbs. And no matter what that big guy is, that huge body must have some use. "

"Are you sure … you can't even give me 100 ryo?"

Ri wanted to say that he had already given him 10 million. After hesitating for a while, he still decided to fork out the money. In any case, it was just an A-rank mission, and it was just 300,000 silver taels.

Masahiko took the money, smiled in satisfaction, and said nonsense, "That's more like it. I'm so poor that I can't even afford ramen. Alright, let's go get a bowl of ramen from the handmade chef."

Ri smiled bitterly. Ri could only send Masahiko away.

Masahiko found a secluded place to cast the transformation technique, and after a few turns, he went to Yi Le Ramen, only to find that it was being renovated, or rather, expanded.

Masahiko found a secluded place and used the transformation technique. Then he went to Yi Le Ramen, only to find that it was being renovated, or rather, expanded.

"Sure enough, Ri Le Ramen has made a fortune. He even built a two-story house." Masahiko smiled. Unlike before, when Ri Le Ramen had to work hard to renovate, he now hired several craftsmen to do it.

In addition, Masahiko also saw two notices recruiting apprentices. It seemed that even Ri Le Ramen's whole family was a little busy.

Looking at the messy Yi Le Ramen and Ri Le Ramen, Masahiko didn't go to disturb them. Instead, he went straight back to his shop.

There were a few notes in the shop. Originally, he thought that they were new customers, but after reading them, he found that they were all left by Obito, asking him where he went.

"This identity suddenly disappeared for half a month, and there is a little apprentice who cares about it."

Masahiko smiled and tidied up the dust that had accumulated in the house. He took out a sealing scroll from his bosom. After a few seals, a pile of "weeds" appeared on the ground. It was the Paralysis Grass that he had collected on the island.

"This thing is much more useful for training than any heavy objects." Masahiko muttered and began to weave "bracelets."

There was a lot of paralysis grass. Masahiko made twenty bracelets in a row, and there were still a lot left.

"This should be enough, then the rest …" Masahiko frowned, and suddenly smiled. He made an "immortal-binding lock".

Masahiko shook his head with his hand, dissatisfied. "This appearance is too ugly. I have to think of something. Should I put some gold powder on it?"

Just as he was thinking about this, someone came to his door.

"Senpai, you're back …"

It was little Kakashi. Before he could finish his words, he became tongue-tied, and then fell to the ground.

Masahiko was slightly stunned, and then he realized that he must have been paralyzed.

"Looks like this thing has to be treated before it can be used. Otherwise, if I wear the bracelet, whoever I touch will fall … Eh, this is a little interesting."

While he was still immersed in his own thoughts, Kakashi, who had fallen to the ground, wanted to cry but had no tears. The feeling of his body being stiff was not a good feeling, and he was more worried that he had fallen into some "trap".

After a while, Masahiko realized that Kakashi was still lying on the ground. He smiled and asked, "Kakashi, don't you have school today?"

"Oh, yes, you have graduated."

Kakashi was speechless.

Masahiko put away the bracelet and immortal-binding lock. After half an hour, Kakashi finally recovered from his stiff state and stood up slowly.

Masahiko put on an innocent look. "Remember to balance work and rest when training. Look at you. You're tired. You slept for so long in my shop. If your breathing was not stable, I would have called an ambulance."

Although Kakashi did not know what an ambulance was, his breathing was no longer stable.

"Senpai, just now I …"

"Why are you looking for me?" Masahiko changed the topic as if nothing had happened.

Kakashi took a deep breath. "It's that guy, Obito. I haven't heard from you for a while …"

Masahiko smiled. "He asked you to pay attention to when I'll be back."

"No, I'm just worried about you. Thank you for giving me the wooden carving."

"Oh, I see. Thank you for your concern. I just went out to pick some grass. "Masahiko did not expose Kakashi's awkward language.

"Picking grass …" Kakashi suddenly remembered what he saw when he first entered the shop, and then he thought about his stiff body. "Senpai, is that paralysis grass?"

Masahiko's face froze. Kakashi actually knew about this kind of thing.

"Yes, it's paralysis grass. Weave it into a bracelet or something. After treating it, it can have a better training effect than carrying heavy objects."

Kakashi nodded. "Since you're back safely, I'll take my leave first."

"Come find me in a few days. I'll give you a bracelet."

"Thank you, Senpai."

After watching Kakashi walk away, Masahiko laughed in his heart. He was obviously here for Obito, but he was still so awkward …
