Tsunade Can Hear My Inner Voice-Chapter 56: The Wisdom of a Transmigrator

Tsunade was puzzled, while Kamizuki Hikari sighed inwardly.

[As I thought, big breasts, no brains. Such massive assets must have sucked all the nutrients from her head. How could she possibly be smart?]

He silently dissed Tsunade in his mind to lift his own mood.

"This whole thing is a bit complicated. If you really want to hear it, type '1' in chat."

"What does 'type 1' mean?"

"Uh... I misspoke." Hikari gave an awkward chuckle and decided to change the subject.

No way he could tell Tsunade that he picked that up from watching streamers before he transmigrated.

Tsunade didn't press further.

She was more interested in results. As long as Hikari could help her manage the overwhelming workload, who cared if he secretly badmouthed her in his head?

Use the capable, doubt the incapable — simple as that.

"The Intelligence and Medical Divisions — I won't go into detail about those. They already have established workflows, so we'll set them aside for now."

"Let's start with the Mission Department."

"The Mission Department mainly handles preliminary risk assessment and post-mission reward distribution. However, there's a flaw—the completion criteria for missions rely solely on the shinobi's own reports, which isn't ideal. Additionally, for noble clients, we could offer premium services and charge extra fees. Wouldn't that be better?"

Tsunade scratched her head in frustration and interrupted, "Break it down step by step. First, explain the preliminary risk assessment."

"The preliminary risk assessment are decent as-is, but there's no standardized evaluation process. If the actual situation turns out to be worse than reported, and the enemy was underestimated, the mission rating would've been too low. That kind of miscalculation could easily cost shinobi their lives. I suggest we create a unified information template that staff can fill out using prior experience."

"For instance: client identity, mission objectives, escort routes, likelihood of enemy shinobi interference, and the estimated rank of potential threats. If the client's an ordinary person, their understanding of shinobi is limited. To save money, they might intentionally underreport the mission's danger level. That not only adds to our workload but could lead to casualties."

"To address this, we could establish both internal and external assessment systems. For example, for nobles and wealthy merchants with a long-standing relationship with Konoha, we can use past mission records to build a rating system. That way, we know how to handle them appropriately!"

To put it simply — this was an early prototype of big data.

What Kamizuki Hikari wanted Tsunade to implement was a simplified version of a "shinobi world big data" system.

Sure, the Daimyo held the purse strings for military budgets, but most of that went into Konoha's infrastructure. Mission payments came largely from nobles and wealthy merchants.

If service quality went up, Konoha's competitive edge against other shinobi villages would increase drastically.

"That's an interesting idea. What about mission reward distribution?"

"Shinobi are human, and humans aren't always objective when handling interpersonal matters. So, I suggest implementing a mission performance rating system. A standard completion earns three stars. If the mission is executed exceptionally well, it can be rated four stars, with a slightly higher reward. If the mission fails or the client gives poor feedback, deductions can be made, or payment withheld."

Tsunade kept scratching her head. She felt like she was going bald.

"That system sounds good, but it's too complex. If we actually want to implement it, it'll take a long time to promote and adapt. Not practical at the moment." fгeewebnovёl.com

Indeed, it wasn't feasible yet. If this were the post-Fourth Great Ninja War era, where communication networks were widespread, they could easily follow up with clients. Once the shinobi left, clients would be more likely to speak honestly.

But given the current environment, this approach would have to wait.

"And finally, what's this special service for nobles and merchants you mentioned?"

Tsunade's sixth sense for money immediately tingled — she smelled profit.

Hikari explained, "First of all, most nobles aren't short on money. They care about prestige. For their missions, once the assessment is done, the Mission Department could proactively offer an upgraded premium package."

"Are these nobles idiots? Would they really pay extra?" Tsunade was skeptical.

If she were a noble, there's no way she'd waste money on something like that.

Hikari could only sigh—ordinary people simply didn't understand the spending habits of the wealthy.

They didn't care about what was best. They cared about what was most expensive.

Money was just a tool to flaunt status.

"For example, if a mission is rated B-rank, we can suggest the client upgrade it to A-rank. This means the shinobi team assigned would be a tier higher, reducing mission risk. Plus, the actual cost would still be lower than a standard A-rank mission."

Tsunade still looked doubtful. "Are nobles really that stupid? You say a few words and they throw money at you? You think they're brain-dead?"

"If you don't believe me, forget it. Just tossing ideas out there." Hikari decided to leave it at that. No need to argue if she wasn't buying it.

"Fine, fine, I'll think about it!" Tsunade gave in. Being Hokage was such a headache.

This guy next to her clearly had the brains and the vision, but he just wanted to slack off and cruise through life. She couldn't do anything about that.

"Then tell me, if I do end up overseeing the Mission Department, how do I make it easier on myself?"

Just thinking about dealing with mission reports every day made her feel like she was aging faster.

Hikari widened his eyes, as if looking at an idiot.

"Isn't it obvious?"

"For non-shinobi-related missions—C-rank and D-rank—just delegate them to assistants. These make up half of all missions anyway."

"B-rank missions are more numerous than A-rank and S-rank combined. For these, you can assign two assistants. They don't need to be highly skilled, but they should have broad knowledge—familiar with regional customs, local rogue shinobi, and able to predict whether a rogue shinobi might cross paths with the mission team. That'd be ideal."

Tsunade: !!!

Tsunade: 'That makes perfect sense, and I agree. But people like that are way too rare.'

"Then all that's left is S-rank and A-rank missions. Tsunade-sama, you can handle those yourself. Shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Of course not!"

A-rank missions usually involved jonin-level threats, but in peacetime, that kind of danger was rare. As for S-rank missions, most were issued internally by shinobi villages — usually during war periods. It wasn't something you dealt with every day.

If all she had to manage were S and A-rank missions, Tsunade felt like she could stay Hokage for life.

This was way too easy!
