"Wood Release is rich in life force and obeys my will, making it the best Prosthetic Limbs for you, Guy-sensei. (๑`・ᴗ・´๑)" Shinki explained with a smile.

To adapt to his New Body, Might Guy Earth Flow a few steps.

Soon, he was shocked to discover that his Wood Release limbs were even more functional than his original legs!

His legs and feet contain a massive amount of Chakra!

Shinki: "By the way, I've infused a bit of Six Paths Yang Power into the legs of this Wood Release Clone. This power will allow you to open the Eight Gates again, and you won't die afterward..."

Upon hearing this, Kai was so moved he almost cried! ヾ(༎ຶД༎ຶ)ノ

"Shinki... you... I... I can't thank you enough! If you ever need anything, just ask me to do it!" Kai excitedly hugged Shinki's shoulders, but in the end, he couldn't say many nice words, so he loudly promised.

Shinki didn't refuse much, nodded, and left. "My Succession Ceremony is in two days, I need to go back and make some preparations..."

On the way home.

Shinki discovered Konohamaru, who was lying in wait!

Shinki suddenly darted behind Konohamaru and patted the kid on the shoulder. "Yo, Konohamaru, were you waiting for me? (´,,•∀•,,`)

Konohamaru nodded honestly and bowed to Shinki: "Thank you, Shinki, for letting me see my grandfather."

Shinki's expression turned playful. "Oh~ Konohamaru even knows how to say thank you now~ Ծ ̮ Ծ"

Konohamaru: "..."

"Shinki, you're so naive."

Shinki: "..."

Konohamaru continued, "I heard the Sixth Hokage Succession Ceremony is scheduled for two days from now. Congratulations, Shinki!"

"And another thing! I will never give up on surpassing you! ୧⍢⃝୨"

Shinki nodded, smiling, and said, "I look forward to the day you defeat me. ∩_∩"

After seeing Konohamaru off, Shinki walked alone on the bustling street.

People frequently bowed to the Shinki along the way, and the Shinki responded with a smile.

Soon, Shinki arrived near his home and saw Hinata and Naruto standing together under Streetlight...

This scene left Shinki deeply moved and unable to calm down for a long time: ◝₍ᴑ̑ДO͝₎◞

He didn't see wrong, did he?

Naruto and Hinata meeting so late... they're obviously on a date!!

Naruto finally figured it out!! (´◊ω◊`)

Shinki, being sensible, didn't disturb the 'young couple' and planned to take a longer route home from the Park...

However, when Shinki reached the outside of the Park, he was shocked to find Sasuke and Sakura sitting together on a Park bench...

Shinki:!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ

Naruto finally figured it out!

Sasuke, that eternal blockhead, has actually learned how to flirt with girls! (๑ʘ̅ д ʘ̅๑)!!

Shinki's enthusiasm for walking home was interrupted, so he decided to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport home.

Just then, Iruka-sensei's voice rang out from not far away. "Shinki!"

Sasuke and Sakura, who were having a secret rendezvous in the Park, immediately stood up, turned their heads away, and avoided each other like startled birds!

Shinki could only pretend not to see it and walked towards Iruka-sensei with a natural expression...

What followed was a conversation between the teacher and the students.

After talking with Iruka-sensei, it was already 9 p. m.

Shinki's stomach was growling with hunger after not eating for half a day...

I pushed open the door and went home.

Shinki discovered that the table was laden with food!

Inside the house, Tenten, Neji, Kiba, and other former companions of the Shinki were busy running around.

Upon discovering that Shinki had returned, Tenten gave him a warm welcome. "You're finally back! This meal was prepared for you to celebrate becoming the Sixth Hokage of Konoha!"

Neji nodded. "Those who once traveled with me have now become figures I look up to!"

Kiba: "Did you see Naruto and Sasuke on your way back? They promised to cook you a meal together, but they went out to buy groceries and disappeared! (ㅎ‸ㅎ)"

Shino: "Yeah, dinner's almost ready, and they still aren't back. Otherwise, we wouldn't wait for them."

"Agree!"

"Agree!"

"Let's wash our hands and get started!"

Two days later, the Sixth Hokage Succession Ceremony.

Shinki remained expressionless, following the ritual procedures like a pre-arranged puppet.

Below, several Passing Ninjas were having a heated discussion.

"The Sixth Hokage's Succession Ceremony was absolutely the most prestigious ever! Not only did the Kage from all the major Ninja Villages attend, but many Daimyo of the Nations also came! (๑ʘ̅ д ʘ̅๑)!!"

"Of course! Don't you even know who our Sixth Hokage is? He punched Kaguya and kicked Madara! He's the undisputed New God of Shinobi in the Shinobi World! ୧⍢⃝୨"

"From what I've heard you two talking, it's like you two did all of this. (||๐_๐)"

"Even though we didn't do it, we are proud of it!"

"By the way, have you guys noticed? The way the Daimyo of the Land of Birds is looking at our Sixth Hokage is a little strange! (°ー°)"

"Not only that, there's also the Miko of the Land of Demons, Kumogakure of Yugito Nii... These are all prominent figures in the Shinobi World, and they actually fell for the Sixth Hokage! (≖╻≖;)"

"What pomegranate skirt? Can't you speak properly?! (*´◐∀◐`*)"

On the field, Tsunade the microphone. "As everyone knows, our Sixth Hokage of Konoha, Shinki, is..."

Tsunade's speech recounted Shinki's magnificent achievements, Shinki unfortunate childhood, and his inspiring spirit of striving for Shinki!

Many in the audience were moved to tears.

Shinki, standing on the platform, was still bewildered. He hadn't realized how difficult his journey had been...

However, it's none of our business what outsiders think; as long as he's happy, that's all that matters.

It also allows you to establish a handsome, strong, and tragic character persona—why not?! (๑`・ᴗ・´๑)

After Tsunade finished speaking, she handed the microphone to Shinki.

Shinki was young and not good at official rhetoric, so he could only rely on his own ingenuity to make things up...

Everyone knows @%"*@/...

Shinki's speech ended quickly!

"Splash...!"

Thunderous applause erupted from below!!

Shinki looked bewildered. He didn't even know what he was saying, yet people were actually supporting him, and the ones leading the discussion were even Daimyo of the Nations!

After all the rituals were completed, the final step was to place the Hokage Hat on the Shinki...

Tsunade, with a serious expression, solemnly placed the straw hat over the head of the Shinki...

While doing this, Shinki thought to himself: I definitely need to change the Hokage Insignia when I have time! The straw hat just doesn't feel right!

After the Succession Ceremony concluded, Shinki left to change clothes...

After the ceremony, he still had many things to take care of!

In the stands, everyone dispersed, but Naruto remained unsettled for a long time!

Hinata leaned closer curiously. "Naruto-kun, why are you shaking? Are you sick?"

Naruto shook his head. "No, I'm just excited!"

"Seeing my childhood friend rise step by step to become the Kage of Konoha! I'm so happy for Shinki! ୧⍢⃝୨"

Just as Naruto was excitedly rambling on, Kakashi found him. "Naruto, stop standing there like an idiot, hurry up and catch up on your studies!"

"Although you are the designated Seventh Hokage, you are still a long way from becoming Hokage!"
