The Story Begins

Time flies, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye. It's graduation exam time in Konoha again.

In just a few short years, the Shinobi World has undergone tremendous changes, and Konoha and Mist Ninja have merged almost perfectly.

Genin and Chunin can still distinguish between ninjas from the Land of Water and the Land of Fire, since they still have Forehead Protector representing their regions. However, with the standardization of Forehead Protector, Jōnin have become indistinguishable.

Through years of cooperation, the ninjas from different regions have become familiar with each other, and their camaraderie forged through life and death is undergoing tremendous changes.

At the same time, a large number of elite ninjas from Kirigakure in the Land of Water moved with their families to Konoha in the Land of Fire, thus achieving a complete merger.

Defense of the Land of Water and mission execution are all carried out jointly by ninjas from both sides.

Konoha Village is filled with architecture and industries that reflect the fusion of the two great nations.

The iconic Hokage Building of Konoha now features a "fire" character on one side and a "water" character on the other, while a "god" character sits atop the central, elevated position.

The office was surrounded by a secure barrier.

At that moment, strange sounds emanated from the office, like the sounds of massage and tapping, as well as indescribable noises such as slurping popsicles.

"Damn brat!"

At this moment, Tsunade, wearing the Hokage Ceremonial Robe, was sitting at her desk, her face flushed and drenched in sweat, diligently carrying out her daily duties as Hokage, truly embodying the spirit of dedication.

On the other side, Mei Terumi Mizukage in the same state; having just finished munching on an ice pop, she looked up and trembled as she made a sound.

In the sweltering heat of summer, an ice pop is truly a welcome relief.

But beneath her trembling body, Mei Terumi Uchiha Yoru solemnly scrutinized her performance as the Mizukage, examining whether she had done a truly outstanding job in her administrative duties.

"Damn brat, you actually used Shadow Clone like that! You!"

Tsunade, her face a mixture of excitement and hatred, as if she hated that Ninjutsu was being used in this way, but was excited because she had discovered a new world.

Mei Terumi retorted to Tsunade, "Tsunade- neechan, don't you love Yoru's Shadow Clone Ninjutsu the most?"

"The Shadow Clone of Night has been cultivated to its pinnacle in the Shinobi World..."

Faced with Mei Terumi's praise of Uchiha Yoru's exquisite and powerful Ninjutsu, both of them were filled with excitement and helplessness.

"Ye, your Taijutsu is amazing. No wonder you're called Tailed Beast Level."

The two shouted excitedly, and several Uchiha Yoru figures in the office revealed proud smiles.

"Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi, Fifth Hokage Tsunade, I'm going to have a good look at the administrative matters you handled today. How many years has it been? You've both been Kage for so many years, how come you've made so little progress?"

"We must strive, for the peace of the Shinobi World, for the future of Konoha and Mist Ninja..."

Uchiha Yoru severely criticized the two Kage's administrative abilities, while also solemnly and personally correcting their administrative assignments.

After an unknown amount of time, the office was filled with the long sighs of relief from Mei Terumi and Tsunade, as if their administrative tasks for the day had finally been completed.

The office returned to its usual tranquility.

Uchiha Yoru, however, shook his head and sighed, seemingly unsatisfied, while simultaneously dispelling several Shadow Clones.

With the windows open in the Konoha office, a cool breeze blew through the air, and the three people inside breathed in the fresh air.

Uchiha Yoru frowned and walked to the window, gazing at the now vibrant village.

Mei Terumi and Tsunade, sitting at the desk, both wore worried expressions, as if their work performance had never satisfied Yoru.

After all, Uchiha Yoru's political abilities were simply unparalleled in the Shinobi World.

"Sigh, after so many years of training my Taijutsu with Lightning Release, my physical strength is now enough to fight Tailed Beast without being at a disadvantage, and I can even suppress the Nine-Tails."

Feeling the power within his body, Uchiha Yoru murmured to himself as he stood by the window.

Inside the room, Tsunade wearily wiped the sweat from her brow and habitually took out a nearly empty bottle of perfume from her office drawer.

The spray instantly released a rich, fresh scent of wood, completely dispelling the lingering odor from the previously enclosed office.

"Honestly, everyone keeps saying this place is exciting."

Mei Terumi rubbed her cheek, looking exhausted. Although her tone was somewhat reproachful, she couldn't hide the excitement and satisfaction in her eyes.

"Tsunade- neechan, your perfume is almost gone. Please prepare a few more bottles as soon as possible."

"I see."

The two talked about perfume in a tacit and calm manner, and as their busy official duties came to an end, they stretched and tidied themselves up.

"Meimei, it's up to you to clean up the office."

With Mei Terumi instantly caused the water-containing tissues in the office to lose gravity, transforming into water spheres. Then, with a snap of her fingers...

Instantly, these water spheres emitted high temperatures and evaporated completely.

"Yoru, Mei and I will go back and rest for a bit."

Tsunade and Mei Terumi had just stood up to go back, clearly because they had been sitting for too long and their legs were numb.

Tsunade's legs trembled, but fortunately, she had perfectly awakened the Senju Clan's physique, so she was barely alright.

In comparison Mei Terumi was a step behind; her legs were trembling and shaking, making it look like she was having a cramp, and she was weakly leaning against the wall.

At this moment, Tsunade laughed sarcastically at the Mei Terumi leaning against the wall.

Mei Terumi glared at him irritably, then looked resentfully at the figure by the window, muttering, "What a monster."

"Alright, we'll be assigned to classes tomorrow. I'll use the Flying Thunder God to send you all back to rest. I'll handle the Jōnin assignments later."

With a helpless shake of his head, Uchiha Yoru walked steadily and without any wobbling to the two of them, putting one arm around each of their waists.

Swish!

In an instant, the three appeared in the spacious and luxurious room. Tsunade and Mei Terumi breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this and immediately sat down on the bed, looking disheveled and weak.

However, Uchiha Yoru frowned, shook his head, and sighed, "The two of you."

Seeing the enormous scroll that Uchiha Yoru pulled out, Mei Terumi and Tsunade both felt aggrieved.

"It's just a task, kid, are you ever going to stop? If the two of us are stupid and can't handle it, you can find someone else. Didn't we already hire an assistant?"

"Yes, that's right. Yūhi Kurenai, Anko, Uzuki Yugao, and Shizune are all good choices. Aren't they all taking turns working as assistants in the office?"

Looking at the two of them, Uchiha Yoru shook his head and sighed, "You know, a ninja's strength is everything, so they still need to focus on improving their strength. Even when they're on duty and there aren't any busy missions, I'll let them take the opportunity to train."

It was obvious that Tsunade and Mei Terumi had already left work, and they waved their hands, looking exhausted, saying that they couldn't handle today's administrative duties and that they could do it themselves if necessary.

"Lady Tsunade"

Just then, the sliding door was pushed open, Shizune looked at the returning adult in surprise, but then she realized what was happening and her face showed some embarrassment.

"Shizune, don't go. As your teacher, I need to see how well you've improved in your training. Let's begin, right here, under my personal supervision."

Just as Shizune was about to leave, Tsunade. Shizune immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, her face full of shame. Her professional skills were almost the worst.

"Snort!"

Uchiha Yoru snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, and said critically to Mei Terumi and Tsunade, "I need to check Shizune's training results, but your training over the years has left me very dissatisfied."

"Use your hands! Use your feet! I don't care what method you use, even if you hold the pen in your mouth, today's official business must be finished."

Faced with Uchiha Yoru's criticism, Tsunade immediately revealed a defiant look, glaring at him and saying, "Puppy! You've really got some nerve! Just you wait..."

After a flurry of activity, lasting more than two hours, the three of them worked together, frantically and in a chaotic manner, and finally managed to hand in their assignment.

Seeing that the task on the giant scroll was barely completed, Uchiha Yoru put the scroll away with satisfaction, nodded, and said, "You all get some rest. I'm going to my office to continue handling government affairs."

On the luxurious, enormous bed, Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and Shizune lay exhausted, panting heavily, their eyes barely open.

Shizune's lips were weak and red, still bearing the residue of the milk tea she had drunk when her mouth was dry. "Lady Tsunade, I've disappointed you."

Tsunade lay weakly on the bed, motionless, equally weak, saying, "It's not that you disappointed me, but that this brat is too strong. You're a perfectly normal ninja, and instead of practicing Ninjutsu, you practice Taijutsu, and pure physical Taijutsu at that."

"Damn it! This monster's Taijutsu."

Inside the messy room, the three weak faces wore satisfied smiles as they drifted into a sweet dream, as if their smiles were a result of completing their mission.

There was also a messy room, with torn stockings of various colors, high heels, and all sorts of strange Eight Gates clothes everywhere.

Three people went shopping and came back, trying on all the clothes in turn. Dissatisfied, they angrily threw them all over the floor, and even tore some to shreds to vent their frustration.

After a busy day of shopping, the three of them finally fell asleep.

It was evening, in the Hokage Office.

One after another, the Jōnin, now renowned figures in the Shinobi World, entered. Looking at Uchiha Yoru, who sat alone at his desk, everyone displayed a fervent admiration.

Seeing all the Jonin Jōnin, Uchiha Yoruro smiled and nodded in satisfaction.

"This is graduation season at the Ninja Academy, and you all already know that you'll be promoted to Leading Jonin, so I won't waste any more time on this nonsense."

"The other ninjas have already been assigned to their classes, but Class A, which is the class with the best talent and potential, I think I don't need to say anything more. Here is the class assignment information, take a look for yourselves."

Today, his assistant Izumi Uchiha, respectfully distributed the materials to the Jōnin.

Among the Jōnin, Sarutobi Asuma has a full beard, making him appear more mature and composed, while also becoming more reserved and taciturn.

After all, the current situation of the Sarutobi Clan is exactly the same as that of the Uchiha Clan back then. It's already quite remarkable that they haven't been driven insane under such circumstances.

The difference this time is that Uchiha Yoru possesses overwhelming power, suppressing everything. No matter how aggrieved the Sarutobi Clan may feel, they dare not reveal even the slightest thought of a coup.

However, when he saw the Jōnin class assignments, Sarutobi Asuma smiled. As expected, he had established a good relationship with the Ino-Shika-Cho Clans long ago, and these three children still followed him.

The Ino-Shika-Cho faces the same predicament as the Sarutobi Clan.

"Um, Lord Yoru, are you serious about this class assignment? Naruto Uzumaki?"

At this moment, Hatake Kakashi, the most charismatic Jōnin among them, looked puzzled, while Uchiha Yoru smiled and nodded.

"Of course I'm serious. Jiraiya Naruto Uzumaki just happened to be taking the Genin graduation exam this afternoon, and they passed perfectly, so naturally they're in the class placement process."

However, Hatake Kakashi fell silent after hearing this, as if he had something difficult to say.

Looking at the group of Jōnin, Uchiha Yoru smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, you are all people I can trust, and I believe your strength can guarantee that these top secrets won't be leaked, so Kakashi, you don't need to hold back."

"You mean Naruto Uzumaki's identity, right? So, this star-studded class is yours, Kakashi."

At this point, Uchiha Yoru looked at Zabuza with a smile on his face, "I originally planned to hand over this star team to Zabuza sparring session."

In front of so many people, Zabuza Momochi a cold snort, "Kakashi, the most talented child should naturally be given to the strongest, but I won't admit defeat next time."

Good heavens, these two are truly destined for a tragic fate; they unexpectedly found themselves at odds, their passion rivaling that of Might Guy.

For this reason, Might Guy, Hatake Kakashi, and Zabuza Momochi are known as the three elite ninjas of Konoha, because the three of them are natural enemies and will fight each other whenever they meet.

"Lord Yoru, is this team...!" Yūhi Kurenai, standing in the crowd, looked somewhat embarrassed, the list in her hand feeling almost too hot to handle.

When everyone glanced at the list in Yūhi Kurenai's hand, they immediately pretended not to have seen anything.

Uchiha Yoru shook his head helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. Kurenai has had the easiest time lately, so this task has to be assigned to you."

"These three received training from the Fifth Hokage Tsunade, Tsunade, and even the Mizukage's Ninjutsu instruction, making their abilities far surpass those of Chunin the same rank, especially Karin."

When Karin was mentioned, everyone in the Hokage Office immediately became serious. The existence of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was something that would attract the attention of not only them, but even Kage Level powerhouses.

"I think you all know about Karin's special abilities, but I've personally trained her over the years, so you don't need to worry about her going berserk. Besides, Karin's talent is even more outstanding than you imagine."

When Karin Uzumaki was mentioned, Uchiha Yoru revealed an arrogant smile, "So, Kurenai, you're familiar with these three, so just relax for a while."

"Oh, right, I have some news to tell you. It's already October, and the massive Chunin Ninja Exams will be held in Konoha next July. Genin from the Five Great Nations will be participating, so!"

Looking at everyone, Uchiha Yoruro a confident smile, "Your Genin teams will all be participating, so it's up to you to make the most of this time."

"Yes!"

Yūhi Kurenai, Hatake Kakashi, Zabuza Momochi, and Sarutobi Asuma —four Konoha Jonin —encompassed the most talented children this time.

Please support me.
