Rasa seemed to understand why these three children were so special; their bodies actually contained Sage Art energy.

However, this made him even more curious.

Was it because these children were frequently exposed to Sage Art energy, or was it a gift from this protective behavior?

If it was the former, it would be a good thing, meaning that as the Sage Art energy in this world became stronger and stronger, the Sand Village, as the origin, would definitely be the first to benefit, awakening more ninjas influenced by Sage Art energy. But if it was the latter, it would be a bit troublesome.

Thinking of this, Rasa looked at Shingu.

If it was the former, Shingu, who was born with the ability to use Dragon Vein Chakra, should also have Sage Art energy in his body, since all the current Sage Art energy is converted from Dragon Vein Chakra.

“I heard that you are also learning ninjutsu now, Shingu?”

Rasa's sudden change of topic surprised everyone, and Shingu felt a little embarrassed, as if he had been caught secretly learning.

“Yes, at least it makes it easier to move around.”

Rasa nodded, then dropped the topic and said to Misaki:

“For children like these, it's a waste of time to have them learn ninjutsu. From today on, shift their studies to taijutsu. I obtained a secret taijutsu technique from Konoha, and after I improve it, I'll give it to them.”

Misaki immediately said happily.

“That's great, Lord Kazekage! I thank you on behalf of these children!”

“Yes! Let's continue!”

As expected, surprises don't come often. The other children at the ninja academy seemed ordinary.

There was nothing else that caught Rasa's attention.

The next stop was the Sand Village Ninja Hospital.

Here, Rasa met his brother-in-law, Yakumo, and the head of the medical department, Iris.

Yakumo's presence here was at Iris's request.

Because of the current decline in talent in the Sand Village, the Sand Village Ninja Hospital couldn't find any high-level medical ninjas who could hold their own, so Rasa had to temporarily send Yakumo here.

However, that wouldn't be necessary soon.

“Yakumo, have you ever thought about taking a disciple!?”

A look of dazedness appeared on Yakumo's gentle face, and then he nodded and said.

“If it's me, of course, there's no problem! But, am I good enough?”

“Of course, you are. You're a Jonin in the village, and it's time for you to take a few disciples and contribute to the future of the village.”

“Yes.”

Seeing that her husband and brother had such a good relationship, Karura was naturally very happy.

Then, after roughly touring the newly expanded Ninja Hospital, they arrived at the third stop: the orphanage.

Unlike the Ninja Academy and the Ninja Hospital, which were located in the center of the village, the orphanage was newly built and located in the southeast corner of the village, where there was more vacant land, so the orphanage was built very large. The overall architectural style was still the closed type of the Sand Village.

When Rasa arrived, the head of the logistics department, Ryuji, was also waiting here.

Because the orphanage was newly established, it was still empty and didn't have many children.

Ryuji also shared his thoughts.

“Reporting to Lord Kazekage, I will have people in the village pay attention to orphans in the Land of Wind and other small countries who have lost their parents due to war, so that the number of children here will gradually increase.”

“Yes, just tell me if you have any difficulties!”

As soon as Rasa finished speaking, Ryuji immediately seized the opportunity.

“Reporting to Lord Kazekage, there is indeed a slight difficulty.”

As he said this, Ryuji looked at Karura behind Rasa, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face.

“I have a rather presumptuous request, I wonder if it would be possible to have Lady Karura become the director of the orphanage!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and Karura covered her small mouth in disbelief.

Of course, this wasn't Ryuji's own idea, but something that Rasa had intentionally or unintentionally revealed.

“Oh! Tell me your thoughts...”

Ryuji also knew what to do.

“Reporting to Lord Kazekage, Lady Karura, the orphanage is different from other places. All the children here have lost their parents, and their hearts are very sensitive. They need a gentle director like Lady Karura to take care of them.”

Rasa nodded and turned to look at Karura.

“What's your opinion? Karura?”

“Am I good enough?”

Karura said hesitantly.

Shingu, who had already seen through Rasa's thoughts, immediately chimed in.

“Of course, you are. You're so gentle, Karura, you'll definitely be able to take good care of these children.”

Karura looked at her husband's encouraging gaze and nodded, saying.

“Then I'll give it a try!”

“Yes, then Ryuji, you and Karura can discuss the handover. I will issue the order tomorrow.”

“Yes!”

Just then, suddenly, Rasa's gaze swept over something, and his footsteps stopped once again.

This familiar action made everyone subconsciously follow Rasa's gaze, and then they saw a woman with golden hair, wearing a nun's habit, taking care of the few children in the orphanage.

The radiant, sun-like smile and the beautiful and generous face gave everyone present, even the women, a sense of closeness. As if sensing everyone's gaze, the woman also looked over and nodded at everyone with a smile on her face.

Seeing this, Ryuji directly summoned the woman in front of Rasa and the others.

“Lord Kazekage, this is Ms. Nonoyu, from our Land of Wind. She is a very experienced orphanage director. After hearing about her, I invited her to help take care of the children in the orphanage.”

“Greetings, Lord Kazekage!”

The woman named Nonoyu looked at Rasa, who had appeared before her, and greeted him very calmly, as if Rasa was just an ordinary person.

“Yes.”

Although Rasa was a little surprised, he didn't show the slightest hint of abnormality on his face. Instead, he said gratefully.

“Thank you, Ms. Nonoyu. I'll have to trouble you to take care of these children in the future. With a professional like you, I'm much more confident in the future of our Sand Village orphanage.”

“This is what I should do.”

Nonoyu nodded gently.

“Then, I won't disturb you any further!”

Then came the last itinerary. Accompanied by Shingu, they inspected the area where the people of Loran lived.

Unfortunately, no more surprises appeared.

At this point, all of Rasa's itinerary as Kazekage for the day was over, so he took everyone back to the Kazekage Building. However, along the way, everyone could feel that something was wrong with Rasa, as if he was constantly thinking about something.

After returning to the Kazekage's office, Yekura asked with some inexplicable agitation.

“What is it, Lord Kazekage? Can't you still forget about that Ms. Nonoyu?”

These words made the faces of the women in the office a little strange.

As a man, Mikawa nodded and said.

“That Ms. Nonoyu is indeed very beautiful!”

Because he had to admit that the gentle, maternal aura exuded by that Ms. Nonoyu was indeed very attractive to men.

These words made Karura, who hadn't originally thought that Rasa would have such thoughts, instantly widen her cute eyes and look at her husband.

Shingu, on the other hand, had a slightly disdainful look in his eyes.

As expected, all men are the same.

This inexplicable blame made Rasa feel a little baffled. However, he didn't care. Seeing that everyone here was his own people, he thought for a moment and said.

“No… What I'm thinking about is something else, and that is that Ms. Nonoyu is actually from Konoha…”
