🕑 Added 2023-11-02 17:19:34 +0000 UTC"Then I'll wait for you to be ready next time to ask this question," Charles replied.
Feeling somewhat helpless and frustrated at Charles's refusal, Coulson truly wished to capture this annoying fellow and interrogate him thoroughly to extract all the information.
If it weren't for his consideration of the man's formidable abilities and the enigmatic Hidden Leaf Village behind him, they would have done so already.
Suppressing his frustration, Coulson maintained his professional smile and said, "In that case, please trouble Mr. Charles to provide the two pieces of information."
Pointing to himself in one of the photos, Charles explained, "This state is a taijutsu technique of mine called the Eight Gates."
"After using this technique, I enter this state, and my strength is enhanced in all aspects."
"As for the green energy you mentioned, it's called chakra."
"After activating the Eight Gates, my body's chakra surges and materializes, which is the green energy in the photo."
Listening to Charles's explanation, Coulson contemplated the term "chakra" and speculated that it was likely what ninjas practiced.
"Thank you, Mr. Charles, for your response. That's all for today's information."
"As for the commission fee, I'll have it delivered to you right away."
Coulson tapped the Bluetooth earpiece on his ear and instructed other agents to bring in the boxes. Within a minute, two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents entered with four briefcases, which they placed on the table under the guidance of the attendant.
"Mr. Charles, all the commission fees are in the boxes, and the password is 0000."
"We won't disturb your work further and will take our leave."
This time, Coulson didn't take the boxes with him and had changed the style of the briefcases, leaving them along with the energy blocks for Charles.
Seeing the four briefcases on the table, Charles stood up, smiling and extending his hand, "Pleasure doing business with you. Looking forward to our next meeting."
Coulson also shook hands with Charles, saying, "Pleasure doing business with you too!"
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Charles, our organization has been renamed. It's now called S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
Hearing Coulson mention the name change, Charles couldn't help but think to himself, "S.H.I.E.L.D., more like Snake Shield, right?"
But he maintained a smile on his face and replied, "It's a great name."
"Thank you!" Coulson then bid farewell and left with his agents.
Exiting the office building, Coulson got into his car and asked, "Has the tracking in the boxes been activated?"
One of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the car replied, "The tracking has all been activated, and signals are being transmitted in real-time. We can monitor the movement of the boxes at any time."
Coulson massaged his temples, then instructed, "Don't get your hopes up too high. It's just a simple probe. Drive back to the Triskelion!"
…
In the meeting room, with Coulson and the others gone, Charles didn't immediately recharge the energy blocks. Instead, he submitted the four mission scrolls to the mission assembly hall one by one.
After a series of operations, Charles completed four B-rank missions. Because the information involved the Hidden Leaf Village but wasn't particularly special, they were only rated as B-rank missions.
However, the rewards were still substantial. Including the initial submission, Coulson had Charles complete a total of five B-rank missions.
Ding! Completed B-rank mission. Reward: 2,000 reputation, 200,000 copper coins, and a regular treasure chest!

Ding! Completed B-rank mission. Reward: 2,000 reputation, 200,000 copper coins, and a regular treasure chest!
With these five consecutive reward notifications, Charles saw his reputation increase by 10,000, along with 1 million copper coins and five treasure chests.
He also looked at the 60 energy blocks on the table. At that moment, Charles felt that Coulson's smile was pleasing and looked forward to their next meeting.
After submitting the mission scrolls, Charles entered the password and opened all four briefcases, ignoring the system's prompt, and divided the 60 energy blocks into two piles.
One pile contained 36 energy blocks, and the other contained 24.
After dividing the energy blocks, Charles placed his hand on the pile of 36 energy blocks and proceeded with the recharge.
Ding! Recharge successful. Received 6,480 + 6,480 gold coins!
With 6,480 gold coins recharged and his VIP level changing from VIP3 to VIP5, Charles suddenly had 13,960 more gold coins.
The total gold coins surged to 14,264, the first time he had more than ten thousand gold coins. Seeing the amount recharged, Charles was excited, feeling that the first top-up reward hadn't let him down.
Charles then shifted his focus to the rewards for VIP level upgrades.
Ding! Congratulations, recharge successful. Charles Doyle promoted to VIP4.
Reward: 16,000 copper coins, 100 reputation, 2 secret technique scrolls, and 1 ninja recruitment scroll.
Ding! Congratulations, recharge successful. Charles Doyle promoted to VIP5.
Reward: 18,000 copper coins, 150 reputation, 3 secret technique scrolls, and 1 ninja recruitment scroll.
Ding! VIP level 5, opening the Ninja Store privilege. You can buy 4 ninja fragments daily in the store!
Receiving these two pieces of good news in succession, Charles was very satisfied, having obtained five secret technique scrolls and two ninja recruitment scrolls for free, which were of considerable value.
Especially with the Ninja Store finally allowing the purchase of ninja fragments, Charles was overjoyed.
Finally, besides ninja recruitment, there was a place to obtain ninja fragments.
Without hesitation, Charles immediately clicked on the item store in the shop interface. Besides the item store, there was finally an additional section for ninjas.
Opening the ninja page, Charles saw four ninja avatars: Rock Lee Fragment, Kushina Fragment, Naruto Fragment, and Yūhi Kurenai Fragment.
Rock Lee Fragment: 80 gold coins
Kushina Fragment: 160 gold coins
Naruto Fragment: 80 gold coins
Yūhi Kurenai Fragment: 180 gold coins
Under each avatar, it showed the daily limit purchase: 0/4, along with a sentence in the lower-left corner stating that it automatically refreshes at 0:00 daily.
However, after careful examination, Charles didn't find the option for self-selection, which somewhat disappointed him.
However, he speculated that his VIP level might not be high enough, and with a higher VIP level, he should be able to activate this privilege.
By then, he could choose for himself, and as long as he had gold coins, acquiring S-rank, A-rank, or B-rank ninjas would be much easier.
