Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

Aoba placed several documents in front of Yukito.

"I have provided you with several different options. As you can see, Kumogakure has been destroyed, and now you have become a free ninja, or a wandering ninja, with no place to go.

Therefore, you don't have many choices. Because you are a Jinchūriki, you are considered a high-end fighter among ninjas. At least for now.

This means you have relatively more choices. Become a field ninja of Konoha. If you choose this, you will get the official jonin system of Konoha.

Enjoy all the welfare policies won by the jonin. The specific welfare policies are described in detail above. At the same time, because you are a Jinchūriki, you need to cooperate with some of the work of the research institute. For this, Konoha will give you additional subsidies. "

"The second option is to be a cooperative ninja. You will work with Konoha as a Jinchuriki. You don't need to perform any missions for Konoha. You just need to cooperate with the research institute on some research work.

We will still provide you with basic living security, and the institute will give you a certain amount of research subsidies."

You Mu Ren said with a hint of sarcasm as he flipped through the information in his hand.

"So, no matter which one you choose, you can't avoid the fate of being studied?"

"Yes, this is your fate as the defeated Kumo Ninja and Jinchūriki. But we promise that any research will not endanger your life."

"I believe this. After all, you dared me to become a Konoha ninja and go out on missions. Are you sure you are not kidding?"

Even in Kumogakure, Yukito didn't have such freedom. As a Jinchūriki, her every move was restricted.

But looking at the terms given by Konoha, she could actually get a certain degree of freedom. This made her a little unbelievable.

"Believe it or not, you just have to try it."

"Really? What about this one?" Yu Muren pointed at the last document.

"Set me free, is this true? You will let me go?"

"Of course it's true. As long as you are willing to let us extract a portion of the tailed beast's original chakra, you can be completely free. You can leave Konoha and go anywhere you want. Or you can live here as a civilian.

But I need to inform you in advance that the process of extracting the tailed beast's original chakra is not pleasant. It will cause some damage to you and the tailed beast. It won't be fatal, but it won't be pleasant either."

Aoba's statement was very clear, which made Yukito feel hesitant in making a decision.

Intellectually, she subconsciously wanted to choose the last option. After all, it was absolute freedom. But soon, she realized that this choice was unrealistic.

The tailed beasts were not just any treasure. They were strategic weapons. Once a free tailed beast appeared in the ninja world, Yukito couldn't believe what he would encounter.

All the ninja villages outside Konoha, even those small ninja villages without tailed beasts, will pounce on them like mad dogs.

On the other hand, choosing the second option meant living a life of idleness and waiting to die. This was not what Yu Muren wanted.

"I choose the first one."

Yukito still didn't believe that Konoha would really give her the identity of a ninja and let her go out on missions. But as Aoba said, she could at least try.

A few days later, Yumujin received Konoha's forehead protector and a Jonin certificate, as well as a large bag of various auxiliary ninja tools.

This meant that Yukito had become a legitimate Konoha ninja.

Before Yukito could accept what was happening, she received a mission notice. The mission was to strangle a group of wandering ninjas around Konoha.

"It was hard for Yukito to believe that there were actually wandering ninjas who dared to hang around Konoha. However, she immediately accepted the mission and began to prepare."

As a Jinchūriki, she actually didn't have much experience in field missions. In the early days, the Kumogakure had plenty of military power, and she would not be allowed to take action unless it was a state of war.

Fortunately, there were two companions on this mission, and the choice of companions was even more unbelievable to her.

"You want Naruto to go on the mission with Yukito?"

Tsunade was shocked to hear this arrangement.

"Do you know what you are doing? Two Chūriki, leaving the village at a time like this. You want...you want to fish out Obito."

"That's right. Obito has obtained the Rinnegan, so his next step must be to collect the tailed beasts."

"But yours is too obvious. It's a trap that can be seen at a glance."

"Of course, this is not a conspiracy, but an open one. It doesn't matter if he is tempted or not. I want to send out a signal. Even a Jinchūriki will be treated normally when he arrives in Konoha."

"So, this operation is essentially a show?"

"How should I put it? Image is sometimes very important."
