People are in Hokage, one person at a time

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt tired when he thought of the child he had brought out from his roots.

The restarted wood escape experiment, the missing prisoners and children, and the misappropriated war materials, all one after another, do you really think that Hiruzen Sarutobi is a fool?

Fortunately, the Konoha family has a great cause, and if the Sannin is not good enough, there are still younger ones who can step up.

"You don't have to excuse Jiraiya. I still don't know what kind of old man Jiraiya is. You are you, Jiraiya is Jiraiya, and the future of Konoha is yours."

"This... will surely live up to the trust of the Sandaime-sama."

Minato got down on one knee rather excitedly to show his loyalty.

Although it was just a formality, how could Minato not be excited as his childhood dream was about to come true?

"What a pity. Uchiha are quite a problem after all."

Looking at the excited Minato, the old man shook his head and thought.

Although with the power of the Sandaime Hokage, he could forcibly support Minato to become the Hokage, but on one side was his disciple who had high hopes for him, and on the other side...

Uchiha's legendary eyes have reappeared, and if left unchecked, they might cause some trouble.

Why don't you let Danzo go?

Although he knew that the roots had suffered heavy losses, for no reason, when it came to dealing with Uchiha, Sarutobi Hiruzen always felt that his old friend could come up with something unexpected.

His thoughts changed quickly, and looking at Minato's young face, Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to help Minato share more of his burdens even if he retired.

When the old man turned his face to Qingyuan again, he saw that the two were chatting heatedly, and Qingyuan, who felt he couldn't get a word in, was quietly sitting on Minato's seat drinking tea.

"Ahem! Qingyuan!"

"Come on, come on."

Qingyuan drank the tea calmly and tidied his clothes. Amid Minato's awkward smile, Qingyuan returned to his work as a ninja.

"This is the mission acknowledgment letter from Leader Yuquan, as well as my mission summary. Please review it, Lord Sandaime Hokage."

Qingyuan handed over the two scrolls. Minato took them first and inspected them symbolically before the scrolls fell into Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands.

In fact, there is nothing to say. As a victor in the war and having experienced the tug-of-war between Konoha and Kumo Ninja, Yuquan is unlikely to touch Konoha's troubles at this time.

In addition to praising the efficiency of the Konoha ninjas, 80% of the mission receipts stated that the Yunin Village loves peace and is willing to maintain trade and exchanges with Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't care much about this, but when he saw the report about the Evil God Cult...

"Qingyuan, does this evil god really exist?"

"I didn't see it."

Qingyuan shook his head and said: "But this evil god should be some alien race who has practiced chakra or something like that. It's like a psychic beast. Isn't it like the Slug Immortal who has lived for thousands of years?"

"That's true."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. There were many strange things in the ninja world. As the shadow of a village, Sarutobi Hiruzen still had a high level of acceptance.

"What about the secret technique of the Evil God Cult? I think this part of your mission report is really..."

Looking at Qingyuan's mission report, it said that he had tracked down to the enemy's lair and killed dozens of enemies. If he hadn't learned part of it through ANBU intelligence before, he might have been fooled by this kid.

"Secret technique? What secret technique?"

Qingyuan spread his hands very naturally.

"Oh, by the way, the followers of the Evil God Sect can indeed resist beatings. However, when I attacked the Evil God Altar, in order to resist the power of my ninjutsu, the lives of all the believers were taken away by the Evil God. As for the secret skills... …That’s what Hokage-sama should have said.”

"Will the evil god control life and death?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. At first, when he learned that followers of the Evil God Cult could ignore sword damage, Sarutobi Hiruzen was indeed a little moved.

However, it is not surprising that a cult that emerged from a small country would have such results.

"In that case, go back to the mission center to settle the mission reward. Thank you Qingyuan for your hard work."

"The duty lies."

Qingyuan responded without hesitation. Although he didn't take it seriously at all, it was still necessary to give the Hokage the minimum respect as a monk.

"You just talk nice."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled helplessly and said, "Minato, there will be times when you have a headache in the future."

"This……"

Minato also smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it, since we haven't seen each other for a long time, you two should go out and catch up on old times today. Old man, I don't have anything important to do here, so don't waste time here."

"This...thank you, Hokage-sama."

Minato hesitated for a moment and then said obediently. Seeing this, Qingyuan quickly kept in line with the master.

The two left the Hokage's office together. As soon as they left the Hokage building, Qingyuan couldn't help but stretch.

"What, is it tiring to be a Jonin captain?"

As the most warm-hearted man in Konoha, and about to be promoted to Nagadaimei, Minato obviously has not forgotten his basic personality.

Qingyuan's raised arms trembled slightly. Although the confrontation with the great country's master was quite dangerous, but think carefully about the experience along the way...

"Not really. Anyway, there are quite a lot of idiots who don't know where they are, but they are just minor problems. Let's wait until you become Hokage, Minato-sensei."

"You seem to have always been sure that I can become the Fourth Hokage, Qingyuan, can you tell me why?"

Minato couldn't help but ask. Although his tone was still gentle, Qingyuan couldn't help but sigh when it fell on Qingyuan's ears.

It's always hard for smart people to prevaricate. It would be great if Minato could be as obedient as Kakashi.

"Let's talk as we walk."

After stretching their muscles, Qingyuan and Minato walked aimlessly on the streets of Konoha.

"Would you believe me if I said it was intuition?"

"I will believe it."

Minato nodded firmly.

"I believe that Qingyuan you will not harm me on this kind of thing again. Although Qingyuan your character is difficult to deal with, in the final analysis, Qingyuan, you are still a very gentle person."

"Tsk, don't try to paralyze me with such disgusting words."

Qingyuan couldn't help but shudder.

Although the tsundere has retired from the environment, if Minato is acting awkwardly, it doesn't matter if you pick him up again.

"In short, when it comes to your becoming the Fourth Hokage, intuition is only a small part. It involves many things, including the inheritance of Hokage's master and apprentice, Minato-sensei's personal strength, and the general environment of Konoha. As well as the conditions for becoming Hokage... In short, Minato-sensei, there is absolutely no problem with your position as the Fourth Hokage. As for why I am so sure..."
