My Last Token
Qingcheng, seeing Shouhon Yihan still laughing and joking, directly called out, "Come with me to the training ground, don't waste time here!"
Kumo-ma pushed open the massive wooden door and raised his right hand, indicating that the Hokage should go first.
Hayakumo Sōma followed Qingcheng respectfully in the morning, saying, "Lord Hokage, please go ahead first."
Looking at his sensible subordinates, Qingcheng said with admiration, "Good, good, you're all very thoughtful."
Shouhon Yihan quickly followed and exclaimed, "Hokage, this training ground is huge! It can hold at least a thousand people!"
Qingcheng looked at the circular training ground, which was at least one kilometer in area and could easily accommodate 1,500 people for training at the same time.
Looking at Shouhon Yihan's delighted face, Qingcheng said again, "You want to come and join in? Just say so about natural lightning! Don't try to create a smokescreen like this."
Upon hearing this, Shouhon Yihan quickly replied, "Reporting to the Hokage, I wish to bring members of the Police Force here to train in Lightning Release Ninjutsu, as this place is filled with the energy of lightning from nature."
Qingcheng looked at Shouhon Yihan's eager face, patted his sleeves, and then said, "Show some appreciation, show some appreciation. You're getting more and more outrageous. Did I have to emphasize this? Where did your sense of perception go?"
Shouhon Yihan, seeing Qingcheng's serious expression, immediately realized what was going on. She then pulled out Storage Scroll and took out a large pile of items: stockings, a headscarf, wire, a spiked club, pliers, pepper spray, a tiger-headed broadsword, a Thunder Swords, and dozens of nude photos of the Fourth Raikage.
Finally Shouhon Yihan retrieved 700 million Ryo and a bottle of enemas from Konoha Hospital from another Storage Scroll, and then handed them all to Qingcheng.
Qingcheng took the money Shouhon Yihan handed over, and then said with a serious face, "What do you mean by carrying around enemas when you are the head of the Konoha Police Force? Are you a medical ninja of Konoha? Your head is full of lewd thoughts, and you even want to drag the Hokage down with you. You parasite."
Kakashi was quite surprised to see Shouhon Yihan first give him money and then give him this gift. He thought to himself, "I heard that Lady Tsunade suffered a loss like this before. This is really too reckless."
Hayakumo Sōma, Kumo-ma, Taoyuan, and the others all looked surprised and exclaimed, "Minister Zhang is simply too evil! No wonder he's known as the Konoha Madman!"
After Qingcheng stored all 700 million Ryo in the Storage Scroll, he waved to Shouhon Yihan and then said with a serious expression, "Be careful when you come here to cultivate in the future. Wanting to improve is a good thing."
Shouhon Yihan's emotions were like a rollercoaster ride; she had just been reprimanded by the Hokage and was already pale with fright.
Hearing the Hokage's praise, Shouhon Yihan's face instantly lit up with joy. She quickly said, "Thank you, Hokage- sama! I will definitely train hard and serve you with all my Hokage until my dying breath!"
Bai Yun heard that the Hokage had agreed that Hayakumo Sōma! Shouhon Yihan and the others came here to cultivate, and immediately realized something. They quickly took out their Storage Scroll and said directly, "Lord Hokage, your subordinate also wants to express his opinion. This is your subordinate's wish to convey my opinion to Lord Hokage."
Qingcheng looked at Hayakumo Sōma and handed him a huge pile of Ryo, all in denominations of ten thousand yuan. This pile alone contained at least two billion Ryo.
Qingcheng nodded directly, and said with an appreciative look, "Your awareness this morning was excellent. It's commendable that you wanted to come here to cultivate and improve your strength, but you still need to be careful during cultivation."
Upon Hayakumo Sōma said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Hokage. All members of our Fat Water Squad will train step by step according to Hokage instructions."
Seeing that the morning had already spoken, Kumo-ma hurriedly took out his Storage Scroll and said with a pained expression, "Hokage, I used to only have mission Ninjutsu, so I didn't have many. Also, before, I was arrested by members of the Police Force and had to pay a fine of 300 million. They even called me a blond-haired kid and a delinquent from the village. They almost threw me into the Police Force's jail and made me sit on the Tiger Bench."
Then, Kumo-ma angrily cursed, "It's all that damned Hiruzen Sarutobi's fault! He actually sent the Konoha Crush Plan! This money was all saved up from my missions later on!"
After saying that, Kumo-ma took out 500 million from the Storage Scroll and handed all the money to Qingcheng.
Kakashi looked at the honest-looking Kumo-ma and was also very shocked. He thought to himself, "Hiruzen Sarutobi must have died with his eyes wide open. The Konoha Crush Plan was actually orchestrated by the Police Force. The mastermind is none other than the Fifth Hokage in front of you. A Hokage who understands politics is just too evil."
Qingcheng took all the money Kumo-ma and put it into Storage Scroll. Then, with an admiring look, he said, "Kumo-ma, your Will of Fire is very solid. As long as you train hard, you will definitely become a cornerstone of Konoha. This Hokage has high hopes for you."
Upon hearing the Hokage's praise, Kumo-ma Jian's face instantly lit up with joy. He then exclaimed, "This subordinate will definitely train diligently and strive to become a pillar of Konoha, bringing peace and prosperity to the Konoha!"
Qingcheng clapped his hands and said with a serious expression, "You are all excellent. Konoha needs pillars like you."
Senju Taoyuan looked at the other department heads, who had all expressed their opinions, and his face showed great anxiety. He thought to himself, "The Police Force can make money through shady means, and the Fat Water Squad can go out of the village to do outside business. Only we Anbu Ninja are penniless. Last time I gave all my money to the Hokage, and I haven't been paid this month. How should I express my gratitude?"
Then, as if remembering something, Senju Taoyuan walked directly to Qingcheng, knelt down with a thud, and began to sing. "Always taking from you! Yet never saying thank you... my proud father,"
Qingcheng was stunned by the familiar scene, thinking to himself, "Who taught him this? It sounds so sleazy!"
Then Qingcheng waved his hand again and said with a serious expression, "Good child, no need for formalities. It's a good thing that you've come here to cultivate. Next time, bring your Anbu Ninja with you!"
Taoyuan nodded directly, and said with a happy expression, "Thank you, Lord Hokage."
Some members of the Lightning Armor Corps were taking out their wallets, while others with more money were pulling out Storage Scroll, preparing to give the Hokage a token of their appreciation.
Looking at Kakashi, who remained unmoved, Qingcheng said with a serious expression, "Assistant Hokage, aren't you feeling a little awkward right now? Everyone else has already shown some courtesy, but you haven't shown any courtesy at all?"
Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately reached into his pocket, pulled out a stack of limited edition "Icha Icha Paradise, and handed them directly to Qingcheng, saying with an embarrassed expression, " Hokage -sama, I bought all of these ' Icha Icha Paradise last month. This is my final decision."
