Konoha, outsiders can also be Hokage

Shinnosuke's eyes lit up. He was worried that he would not have the chance to see his father. He recently had a new plan to improve his combat power, but this required cooperation from many aspects.

If dad could come back this time, things would be much easier!

"Teacher Sakumo, you have made great achievements this time. I wonder what reward I can give you when you go back?" Shinnosuke asked curiously.

Hatake Sakumo scratched his head and laughed nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter what the reward is, as long as everyone can remember my achievements!"

Looking at the uncontroversial Hatake Sakumo, Shinnosuke felt a little helpless in his heart. There are some things that you can't just ignore if you want to.

……

"I'm back!"

When he reached the gate of Konoha, Shinnosuke felt relaxed all over. He opened his arms and shouted with excitement.

The other people in the team did not blame Shinnosuke for being rude. They were equally excited, but as adults, they could not release themselves as completely indifferently as Shinnosuke.

"What are you crying about?" Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but slap Shinnosuke on the back of his head.

As the gate of Konoha slowly opened, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been waiting for a long time.

He had already made up his mind to return to Konoha in person when he received a message from the Uzumaki clan about the intelligence of the Ninja Army of Kawa Country.

While Shinnosuke and the others were still encircling and suppressing the Rain Ninja Army, Sarutobi Hiruzen took Uzumaki Dairo and a group of elite Jonin back to the Leaf Village first!

Now, the direction of the Kingdom of Thunder is mainly in charge of Mito Monobu. This elder, who was originally only responsible for logistics and diplomacy, now also takes on the important task of resisting the Kumo ninja.

Although his personal combat ability is not very good, if it is just defense, there should be no problem.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood in the first place, followed by Koharu Koharu, Uzumaki Dairou and other major ninja clan leaders in Konoha.

Behind them are the jounin who stayed in Konoha, and behind them are the chuunin and most of the genin!

On both sides of the village road, red flags were waving and gongs and drums were beating loudly!The villagers of Konoha spontaneously took to the streets, many holding flowers and bright smiles on their faces.

"This is the Konoha we are fighting for!" Hatake Sakumo looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes were a little moist, and he sighed excitedly.

"Yeah!" Looking at the crowded village in front of him, Shinnosuke couldn't bear to attack the teacher's innocence!It’s enough to enjoy the beauty in front of you. As for the future, let’s talk about it later!

"Sakumo, thank you for your hard work!" Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped forward and took a few steps forward to hold Hatake Sakumo's hand, his face full of excitement!

"Yes, as a Konoha ninja, it is our duty to protect the village and the country!"

This scene of a king and his subjects enjoying each other made countless Konoha villagers and ninjas happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, and countless fireworks shot into the sky. Along with the roar of the fireworks, shouts and cheers came and went.

"Long live Sakumo-sama!"

I don't know which person was the first to shout.

First in twos and threes, and then in unison!

"Long live Sakumo-sama!"

"Long live Sakumo-sama!"

At this time, Hatake Sakumo was extremely excited under everyone's enthusiasm. He was happy at this moment!

And Sarutobi Hiruzen grabbed Hatake Sakumo's right hand with his left hand. The two raised their hands high and turned to face the crowd, as if they were inheriting!

At this time, the villagers on the roadside opened their hand-held salutes one by one, and with a bang, colorful strips flying in the sky fell on the Kawa Country Legion, which also made these ninjas feel the love between the military and civilians.

After the lively village entrance ceremony, the ninjas who had just returned to the village were moved by everyone's enthusiasm for a while, while the villagers applauded the ninjas for their efforts.

……

After walking several miles of welcome road and approaching the Hokage Building, the noise of the crowd gradually subsided. This is the most secret place in Konoha. Although there are no restrictions on the coming and going of people in normal times, this is a war period after all. The average villager and Ninjas are not allowed to approach without orders.

At this time, the Kawa no Kuni ninja army had dispersed, and many ninjas were eager to go home. Although the welcome ceremony was exciting, their parents, wives and children at home were the warmest harbor in their hearts.

Seeing the Hokage and a large number of Konoha jounin arriving at the building, the ANBU on duty hurriedly opened the door.

"Let's go, Sakumo-kun, come in with me!" At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to let go of Hatake Sakumo's hand. He patted the other person's back and made a gesture of invitation forward. .

Hatake Sakumo quickly clasped his fists and declined: "No, you are the Hokage, how can I enter side by side with you!"

"No, no, no, you are our biggest hero, let's make an exception today!"

Hatake Sakumo just refused, but Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have no choice. He sighed softly, "Oh, Sakumo, you are too old-fashioned!"

He finally stopped insisting and walked into the Hokage building first.

Behind him, Hatake Sakumo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but everyone could see the respect the Hokage had for him.

"What are you still doing? Come in quickly!"

Seeing Hatake Sakumo still standing at the door, Uzumaki Dairo, who came later, patted him and pointed to the door.

Only then did Hatake Sakumo react. He bowed and apologized to his companions behind him in embarrassment, and then quickly chased after them.

Uzumaki Dairo shook his head and laughed, and then filed in together with the rest of the army.

……

A group of people followed Sarutobi Hiruzen to the Jonin conference room. Since most of the Jonin were not on the front lines, there were less than 200 people in total at this time, which seemed particularly empty.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat at the head of the meeting, while Koharu sat on the chair next to him.

Below, Hatake Sakumo is naturally sitting in the middle as the protagonist, and next to him are Uzumaki Dairo, Aburame Shihiro and others!

Seeing everyone sitting down at the table, Sarutobi Hiruzen's sharp eyes swept over them one by one. The various ninja families below were clearly distinguishable, and their respective small circles could be seen from their positions.

When he saw the ninjas around Hatake Sakumo, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked stern, secretly thinking that he had made a mistake.

Both Uzumaki Dairo and Aburame Shihiro's families have ninjas who have become disciples of Hatake Sakumo. It's only natural that they all sit together to connect with each other. This was all done by themselves.

Seeing the three of them sitting there talking and laughing, what a bad move!Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself.

After coming back to his senses, he put his mind back together, with a smile as bright as spring breeze on his face.

"This time the Kawanoguni Ninja Army was able to defeat Suna Ninja Village and kill the Second Kazekage, which really boosted our morale in Konoha. On behalf of the village, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone here!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and bowed deeply on the stage!

The ninjas below seemed to be shocked by Lord Hokage's actions. Everyone hurriedly avoided it and expressed their inability to do anything.

Returning to his seat again, after chatting for a while, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally began to discuss merit and reward him!

"Everyone and his ninjas have reported their achievements to me. Do you believe Sakumo-kun and me?" Sarutobi Hiruzen, the leader, rarely made a joke.

The ninjas who had participated in the Kawa no Kuni war all booed, saying that if you two believe in me, who else can you believe?

"Okay, the merits of Chuunin and Genin will be specifically arranged by the administrative class, so I will personally distribute your rewards here!"
