Sasuke's swift and decisive action left Naruto and Sakura stunned. They stared at the bound and screaming Chunin before them, their expressions dull and bewildered. Kakashi, on the other hand, remained calm as he glanced at Sasuke and then turned his attention to the surprised Dazna, who clearly had no understanding of ninja strength.
Though not a ninja himself, Dazna could recognize that the sudden assailants had been effortlessly dealt with by a young Konoha ninja. It was unfathomable to witness such power and skill in one so young. "The ninjas of Konoha truly are the strongest in the ninja world," Dazna thought to himself, sighing inwardly.
Kakashi, breaking free from his reverie, stood up and walked towards Dazna. His calm demeanor concealed his concern over Sasuke's actions. Was this the first time Sasuke had taken someone's life? Glancing at Naruto and Sakura, who were overwhelmed by the unexpected attack, Kakashi pondered whether they were facing ninjas from other villages for the first time.
As Kakashi approached, he spoke firmly to Dazna, "I believe I require a reasonable explanation, Mr. Dazner."
Simultaneously, Kakashi's thoughts wandered. Had Sasuke truly encountered a genuine enemy? And had he killed that enemy? Naruto and Sakura's reactions further deepened his suspicions. Their bewilderment seemed more indicative of encountering foreign ninja rather than mere fear.
While Kakashi contemplated these matters, Sasuke's attention was drawn to a system interface that appeared before him. It congratulated him on his first kill and offered a reward for his persistent efforts—a power enhancement for his ninjutsu. The reward promised to strengthen any ninjutsu below A level tenfold, without increasing its chakra consumption or difficulty. Sasuke found the reward appealing, especially considering that his future endeavors would involve higher-level ninjutsu and senjutsu chakra usage.
Deciding to accept the reward, Sasuke chose to enhance his Fire Style Fire Dragon Technique, a technique he had mastered and found efficient in terms of chakra usage. By strengthening its power, he could elevate it to the level of A-ranked ninjutsu. Delighted, he named his newly empowered technique the "Fire Style: Fire Dragon Explosion."
The enhancement process was swift, leaving Sasuke eager to test his upgraded ninjutsu. However, he couldn't afford to disregard the mission at hand. Impatiently, he interrupted Dazna, who had been rambling about the Land of Waves.
"No need for further explanations," Sasuke interjected. Dazna was about to protest, but his voice faltered when he noticed the coldness in Sasuke's tone. He feared Sasuke might abandon the mission entirely.
Sasuke looked towards Kakashi and stated matter-of-factly, "If we fail the mission, we'll be held accountable. Although the mission's difficulty varies, at best, it's a B-level mission. Mr. Kakashi, with you on our side, it won't be too challenging."
Dazna's eyes lit up with hope as he believed Sasuke intended to continue the mission. However, his excitement was short-lived. Sasuke's next words shattered his optimism. "As for the reward, since you cannot provide it now, you can make it up gradually in the future—with interest."
Dazna's face contorted in frustration. Did this young ninja care about money more than anything? How could he audaciously ask for additional compensation when the present situation called
for financial struggles? Dazna concluded that if there was a shortage of funds now, the future would likely yield the same outcome.
Kakashi, initially hesitant to conclude the mission, found himself swayed by Sasuke's pragmatic approach. "Your plan is acceptable. We will temporarily classify this as a B-level mission. The Kingdom of Waves will gradually compensate for the missing reward in the future—with interest."
Dazna's hopes were dashed once more as he realized Sasuke's true motives. This brash young ninja valued money above all else. If he couldn't afford something, he would shamelessly demand help from others. Dazna resigned himself to the situation, understanding that money would always be a pressing concern for Sasuke.
With the mission temporarily settled, Sasuke's desire to test his newly enhanced ninjutsu burned within him. However, he knew he couldn't indulge himself just yet. Patiently, he awaited the opportune moment to unleash his "Fire Style: Fire Dragon Explosion" technique, eager to witness its formidable power.
Meanwhile, Kakashi observed the dynamic between his team members, recognizing the financial motivations of one and the burgeoning strength and resolve of the other two. As the mission continued, he hoped to guide them towards growth and unity, enabling them to overcome the challenges that lay ahead.
