Assignment of Duties

Shikaku Nara could not believe his ears.

"Danzo sent his Reverse Four Symbols Sealing squad to assassinate me while I was in the Land of Fire. I killed them."

Seeing that he did not believe it, Tobirama Senju calmly repeated himself.

"My Lord Hokage, something this serious... how could you do it without informing anyone?"

Shikaku Nara was drenched in sweat.

"Shikaku, gather all the Jonin in the village in the conference room. I have something to announce."

Tobirama Senju spoke calmly.

"Understood..."

Forget it. Leave these matters to Lord Hokage.

Inside the conference room.

Those who were not well informed were still noisily discussing why the Hokage had summoned them so urgently.

Meanwhile, some of those who knew the truth remained silent.

They knew it.

The skies over Konoha were about to change.

"Is everyone here?"

His voice arrived before he did.

Tobirama Senju's voice came from outside the door.

"Lord Hokage!"

Everyone turned to look.

"Everyone, I have called you here to discuss an important matter."

"Shimura Danzō, the Hokage's advisor, intended to rebel and assassinate the Hokage. Just now, I personally executed him."

Tobirama Senju calmly revealed something that caused everyone's expressions to change dramatically.

"I have called you here now because I wish to redistribute Konoha's positions."

"This..."

Tobirama Senju's words allowed no room for doubt. Under his powerful presence, no one dared to speak.

He looked around at the people present.

Might Guy, Chōza Akimichi, Shikaku Nara, Inoichi Yamanaka, Kakashi Hatake, Shibi Aburame... all these prominent figures from the original story were here.

It was worth mentioning that the Interrogation Division, led by Inoichi Yamanaka, had already received Shimura Danzō's corpse. After using a secret technique to probe the secrets in Danzo's mind, Inoichi Yamanaka was deeply unsettled. The things Danzo had done were truly shocking.

After seeing everyone within his sight lower their heads in acknowledgment, Tobirama Senju grinned and began issuing orders.

"From today onward, Shikaku Nara will serve as Hokage's advisor. He will take over Shimura Danzō's Root and report directly to me. His original position as head of the Jonin Corps will remain unchanged."

"Yes!" Shikaku Nara immediately nodded.

From the corner of his eye, he looked at Chōza Akimichi and Inoichi Yamanaka, his fellow members of the Ino–Shika–Chō clans. Both nodded at him.

"Kakashi Hatake!"

Tobirama Senju looked once more at the mysterious masked man and said in an unquestionable tone, "You will temporarily serve as the head of ANBU and be responsible for the village's security!"

Kakashi Hatake was stunned.

He had not expected that he could become the head of ANBU.

Tobirama Senju's lips curled slightly. Kakashi Hatake had been highly supportive of his appointment as Hokage, was not on good terms with the old faction led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, and was exceptionally capable. Tobirama was very at ease entrusting this position to him.

Kakashi Hatake fell silent for a moment, then slowly nodded. "Thank you for your trust, Lord Hokage."

Tobirama Senju finally looked at Might Guy.

"Guy, how would you like to become my guard from now on?"

Though a guard was optional for Tobirama Senju, since no one could stop him if he wished to leave.

Might Guy, however, was different. His Eight Gates Released Formation had already reached its highest realm. With all Eight Gates open, he could even temporarily wield power at the Six Paths level.

Naturally, Tobirama Senju intended to keep such a devastating weapon close at hand.

"Huh? Lord Hokage, you recognize my youth too?!"

Might Guy was somewhat at a loss. Ever since childhood, he had hoped to earn others' recognition. Moreover, the one recognizing him was a former Hokage of Konoha. At once, his thick eyebrows bounced up and down.

Judging by the way he looked, he seemed ready to run a hundred laps around Konoha on his hands.

"Thank you, Lord Hokage! I swear on my youth! I will definitely protect your safety! Burn, youth!"

After Might Guy's impassioned response, Tobirama Senju's mouth twitched, but he nodded.

With that, these basic positions had been assigned.

"The rest of you will retain your current positions. Tomorrow, I will officially hold the inauguration ceremony for the Hokage position. Please gather in Konoha tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

At that moment, a cold mechanical voice sounded in his mind.

Mission: Retake Konoha (Completed)

Reward: Wood Release

A strange sensation surged within him. Tobirama Senju felt as though something had been added to his body.
