Chapter 467: , This is outrageous, truly outrageous!

The rudely intercepted Mist Genin wanted to break free, but Bee's hand was as hard as iron pincers; he tried to struggle, but it was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.

Looking at Bee's furious expression, the Genin soon stopped struggling.

Looking at this fierce-looking ninja from another country, although the Genin was trembling inside, he did not give an inch on his face.

"What, what are you doing!!"

"Let me go!! ~ This is Kirigakure!"

The Genin retorted in a trembling voice, not yielding in the slightest to Bee's intimidation.

Seeing this, Bee reined in his anger, knowing that this was just an ordinary Mist ninja and there was no point in making things difficult for him.

"Why didn't Kirigakure's Jonin Commander, Kuroshima Morita, come to work today?"

Bee released the Mist Genin and stared into his eyes as he asked again.

As a core member of Kumogakure, Bee naturally carried the aura of a superior, which ordinary people could hardly contend with.

Under Bee's pressure, this time, the Genin didn't continue to hold out.

"Who are you? How dare you make Commander Kuroshima wait for you?"

"Don't you know today is Saturday?"

"The one responsible for duty this week is Elder Tian Yuanshi, so Commander Kuroshima naturally wouldn't come to work."

The Genin explained impatiently, speaking as if it were a matter of course.

"Why doesn't Kuroshima Morita have to come on Saturday?"

Bee asked in confusion, his expression blank for a moment.

"Where on earth are you from? Don't you know about Kirigakure's 'two-day weekend system'?"

"Saturday and Sunday are rest days, and the village's high-level officials adopt a rotating duty system."

Upon hearing this, a flash of disbelief crossed Bee's eyes; from yesterday to today, everything in Kirigakure had completely refreshed his perception.

"Eight-hour workday," "two-day weekend system"—this dream-like scenario caught Bee off guard.

A ninja is a profession that can sacrifice everything for a mission.

Isn't this a basic common sense?

Rest? How could such a thing appear so openly in the mouths of ninjas?

He had thought the so-called "eight-hour workday" was outrageous enough, but he didn't expect an even more outrageous "two-day weekend system."

"What about the Mizukage? Does the Fourth Mizukage also not work on Saturday and Sunday?"

Bee asked the Mist Genin in disbelief, and the only answer he got was a roll of the eyes.

This question clearly didn't need much of an answer.

In fact, Bee's understanding was correct; the so-called "eight-hour workday" was indeed just something Ryosuke had made up to deal with him.

After all, if employees don't work themselves to death 996, how can the leaders enjoy the benefits?

But the two-day weekend system had indeed been implemented in Kirigakure, although it was limited to the Jonin level and above, it was indeed a fact.

Every Saturday and Sunday, Kirigakure's high-level officials adopt a "rotating shift system," and the one responsible for duty this week was Kirigakure's Great Elder, Tian Yuanshi, so Kuroshima Morita naturally wouldn't come to work.

And yesterday, when Kuroshima Morita prepared to call out to Bee, he was just about to tell him this, but who knew he would run so fast; now he could only suffer the consequences.

At this moment, Bee understood everything instantly.

Including why those who passed by Kuroshima Morita's office door before looked at them with strange eyes; at the time, Bee thought it was the difference in attire, but now Bee finally understood completely.

These people just thought they were stupid for waiting for someone who would absolutely not arrive.

After understanding everything, Bee's expression became even more somber.

"Thank you."

Bee thanked the Genin in front of him.

Seeing this, the Genin didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

"May I ask, where is the Great Elder?"

Bee asked the Genin again; upon hearing this, the Genin didn't make things difficult for Bee but readily told him how to see the Great Elder.

Half an hour later, Bee led Samui and Troy to another building.

Unlike the Jonin Commander, who needs to assist the Mizukage in completing work, the Elder Council has independent responsibilities, so their office location is also independent of the Mizukage Building.

At this moment, Samui and Troy had been completely stunned by Kirigakure's operations.

At this moment, Bee also truly experienced the difficulty of people in the later generations seeking help from others.

Even knowing that the Fourth Mizukage would not see him easily, Bee still did not give up hope; since he couldn't see the Jonin Commander Kuroshima Morita, he would go to see the only high-level official of Kirigakure he could see now—the Great Elder.

No matter what, no matter how much hardship he had to endure, he had to see the Fourth Mizukage.

A flash of determination crossed Bee's eyes, and then he stepped into the interior of the building before him.

In the Great Elder's office, the Kumogakure trio sat upright, looking seriously at the Kirigakure Great Elder—Tian Yuanshi, who had a zombie-like face on the opposite side.

Before visiting Kirigakure, Bee had also conducted a basic investigation into Kirigakure's power structure.

He clearly knew that this Great Elder was not simple; although he looked unassuming, he was deeply trusted by the Fourth Mizukage and was a powerful figure in Kirigakure, holding power no less than the Mist Anbu head or the Jonin Commander.

Therefore, when facing this Great Elder, Bee dared not have the slightest slack.

·· Seeking flowers ·· ··

Bee had thought that perhaps when they reached the Great Elder's location, they might encounter other difficulties, but the process of meeting the Great Elder was extremely smooth.
