Kakashi's Report

Kakashi was stunned upon hearing this. Looking at the suddenly appearing Fifth Hokage, he called out again, "Hokage -sama! You've finally arrived!"

Qingcheng looked at Kakashi, who had taken off his mask, and said with a smile, "Kakashi, you're so handsome, why do you still wear a mask? Are you afraid the Hatake Clan won't die out?"

Tsunade watched Kakashi remove his mask and said with admiration, "You expressionless, dead-eyed brat, I never knew you were so handsome."

Kumo-ma and the other Konoha Ninja all turned to look at Kakashi, only to find that Kakashi had just pulled down his mask and was now looking at the Hokage with an embarrassed expression and a shocked look on his face.

Many of the female ninjas in Konoha exclaimed excitedly, "Assistant Hokage! You're so handsome, why do you always wear a mask? Do you have a fear of social interaction?"

Kumo-ma and the other Konoha Ninjas all said with serious expressions, "I thought Kakashi-sensei had big buck teeth or thick lips, but I didn't expect him to be such a handsome guy. However, with Hokage here, you are at most the second most handsome man in Konoha."

Looking at Kakashi's embarrassed face, Qingcheng laughed and said, "Brother Xiao! You seem to have some kind of social anxiety. Are you afraid of communicating with others, or face-to-face communication? Or are you afraid that Might Guy will fall in love with you? Actually, you don't need to wear a mask. Even if you use the Transformation Jutsu, Little Acorn will be able to find your presence in the vast sea of people!"

Kakashi's face fell when he heard this. He quickly put his mask back on and said with a resentful look, "Hokage -sama! I just like breathing the oxygen under the mask; everything else is just other people's speculation."

Kakashi muttered under his breath, "How did the Hokage know that Guy's nickname is 'Little Acorn'? He can eavesdrop on other people's secrets so casually. What a terrifying boss!"

Qingcheng shook his head and said seriously, "You can't blame anyone else for this. It was Might Guy who showed it to you, and then Ebisu and the others spread the word that the Little Acorn would accompany him for life. After all, Ebisu! He's a well-known gossip in the village."

Kakashi was already feeling sorry for Might Guy, and said awkwardly, "Has Konoha become so obscure? Even such a Shin-chan gets circulated for so long."

Qingcheng looked around at the Konoha Ninja and noticed that many of them had injuries on their faces. Although the wounds had healed, some were still left with scars.

Qingcheng shook his head and said seriously, "Brother Xiao! Have you started a war with Hidden Cloud Village? I saw that some of your ninjas are already wounded."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately stood up, walked to Qingcheng's side, and said with a self-reproachful expression, "Yes! Hokage -sama, we went to war with the Cloud Shinobi and lost over five hundred Konoha Ninja. But the Hidden Cloud Village must have lost even more."

Kakashi took another deep breath, then said with a gloomy expression, "It's all because I didn't try hard enough to kill the Two-Tails Jinchuriki of Hidden Cloud Village, but I did cut off one of the Two-Tails' tails and injured the Two-Tails Jinchuriki."

After saying that, Kakashi directly took out a Sealing Scroll containing Two-Tails Matatabi's tail.

Qingcheng took the Sealing Scroll placed it on his person. Qingcheng thought to himself, "I've already collected the tails of the Nine-Tails- Tails, the Six-Tails- Tails, and now the Two-Tails. I already have three of the Nine Tailed Beasts Tailed Beast. If I collect the rest, I can definitely create a simplified version of the Ten-Tails. Then, I can use this little Ten-Tails to open the Kekkei Mōra and become Six Paths Level powerhouse."

Qingcheng looked at Kakashi, who was filled with self-reproach, and then said seriously, "I've never heard of a war without casualties. All the Konoha ninjas who died in the war will be awarded the title of martyr, and their families will receive a pension of ten million yen. Secondly, their descendants will have priority in choosing Ninjutsu, and if they want to join any department in the village, they will have priority in entering."

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Kakashi nodded in agreement and said, "I understand. I will make arrangements as soon as possible after the war ends, and I will certainly not let the families of the fallen soldiers feel disappointed."

The Konoha ninjas felt a warmth in their hearts upon hearing the Fifth Hokage's words, and they all cried out, "Hokage -sama! Thank you for your kindness. Those martyrs who died for Konoha will be comforted in heaven!"

The compensation for fallen ninjas in Konoha has increased many times over. During Hiruzen Sarutobi's time, the compensation for ninjas who sacrificed their lives for Konoha was only one million Ryo, but now it has been increased to ten million. This is the source of the village's confidence in having plenty of money.

Qingcheng also prioritized their descendants in learning Ninjutsu and joining the village's departments as department ninjas. They would never have to do missions or serve as border ninjas again; it was a secure job, a guaranteed livelihood for life.

Tsunade then went to the camp's infirmary to check on the injured ninjas, preparing to help treat them.

Qingcheng then called Kakashi aside and asked, "Hidden Cloud Village? Which ninja led the invasion of the Land of Fire's border?"

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Kakashi respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Hokage, Hidden Cloud Village Dodai, has mobilized over 12,000 men, and their Raikage has also arrived at the front lines."

Qingcheng nodded directly, looked at Kakashi with a respectful expression, and then asked seriously, "Has the power of your eye recovered? Will the Hashirama Vaccine in your body allow you to fight a full battle?"

Upon hearing the Fifth Hokage's words, Kakashi immediately shook his head and said respectfully, "My Chakra is still insufficient, and the power of my Kamui Mangekyo is recovering very slowly. It hasn't fully recovered yet; at most, it's only recovered to five-tenths."

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, Qingcheng immediately understood that Kakashi's Chakra was still not keeping up with the consumption of the Kamui Mangekyo. The Mangekyō Sharingan is a major chakra consumer; even with Chakra's Hashirama Cells constantly replenishing it, the Chakra consumed so rapidly would eventually run out.

Qingcheng took out a high-quality Hashirama Vaccine and said with a serious expression, "Let me give you a boost. This is our Uchiha Clan's Third Hokage vaccine. This one shot is equivalent to more than ten of your previous shots."

Kakashi used his Sharingan! Looking at the vaccine in Qingcheng's hand, a smile crept onto his face. The small syringe contained a vibrant Chakra, even more concentrated than the Tailed Beast Chakra.

Qingcheng gestured for Kakashi to extend his right hand, and then injected the vaccine.

Kakashi looked at Qingcheng's serious expression, then smiled and said, "I am truly grateful! Hokage -sama, thank you for your kindness."

Qingcheng shook his head directly and said with a serious face, "Brother Xiao! You don't need to be so polite. There will be plenty of work for you to do in the future."

When Qingcheng injected all of a high-quality cell into Kakashi's wrist,

Kakashi looked at his right hand! It was practically sprouting saplings! He exclaimed in shock, "Hokage -sama, something terrible has happened! I can't control these cells!"
