And those behind them made Kurama Shimei pounce on the guy in the corner.
Using both hands and feet to block her friend's lunging attack, Aburame Kaun hurriedly said, "Can't you take a joke?!"
"I can't take a joke, oh no! Waaah!"
"Waaaaaah!"
I saw my friend take a porcelain bottle out of his bag.
Knowing what was inside, Aburame Kaun immediately covered her mouth with her right hand.
Then, using their other three limbs, Shimei outwards!
" Kaun, keep it up!"
Shimei used his hands to pry it open for him.
"Yes, yes, Kaun just kicked him."
"Kick the right one, the right one, don't kick the wrong one!"
" Shimei, take off his sunglasses! Take off his sunglasses!"
"Kick the middle! Kaun, kick towards the middle!"
The commotion they made attracted the attention of all their teammates nearby.
They kept giving each other advice, one after the other, hoping to find a winner.
The soldiers guarding the gate of Daimyō's Residence heard the noise and peeked out.
After realizing that the noisy group was made by Ninja masters...
They immediately pulled their heads back and continued standing guard as if they hadn't heard or seen anything!
Just as the Maid led her to the door, Uka Senju heard the commotion outside.
Without disturbing the group gathered in the corner, he nodded and greeted the captains who were chatting and watching the commotion.
He then stepped forward to examine the situation!
One person was leaning against the corner of the wall, moving all four limbs with an unwilling expression, while the other person was pressing down hard, trying to pry open the hands of the person below who was covering their face.
Since they were just joking around and neither of them used Chakra, the two of them were frozen in place.
It turned out that the two friends were evenly matched in the short term.
Uka Senju then interrupted with a laugh, saying, "It's time, we need to get going."
"You two, let's get intimate slowly back in the village!"
There was no way he could stop them from having the wrong idea because of their posture.
And if you want to separate the two of them, that's the fastest way!
Hearing the sounds coming from behind, and looking at the postures of the two people in front of him.
The group of onlookers who had formed a circle to watch the show realized that Uka's description was indeed correct.
So, while laughing and greeting the squad leader behind them, they dispersed and lined up neatly behind their respective squad leaders in the small square!
The Aburame Kaun and Kurama Shimei, who were tearing each other apart inside, heard what Uka said behind them.
Especially after the word "affectionate" was uttered, they couldn't help but exchange a glance and instantly distanced themselves from each other.
I wanted to talk to Uka about those two words.
But the actions of the surrounding squad members made Kurama Shimei point angrily at Uka.
Amidst the laughter of his two teammates, he put away the porcelain bottle and walked behind his captain with a dark expression.
After a moment, I looked at the neatly arranged team members in front of me, who were full of energy for going home.
Uka Senju smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two wooden wings appeared on his back, as he was wearing dark green armor.
With their constant flapping...
He slowly floated into the air and then flew towards the Land of Fire.
His two teammates followed closely behind.
Uka led the way, while the other two combat teams lined up on either side.
Enclosing the Logistics and Medical Treatment Team, they rapidly departed from the newly reborn Land of Forests with the aid of Chakra!
Looking at the former citizens of the Land of Bears who were gradually returning to their former lives.
Unlike the path they had taken to get there, they took the main road directly.
After passing through towns and forests, it only took a few hours.
Then, the long-lost and soon-to-be-abandoned border town of ' Akifuku ' appeared before everyone's eyes!
They left their team members outside the familiar gate of the East City compound.
Uka Senju led several squad leaders toward Chiharu's office.
" Lord Uka, good afternoon!"
Good afternoon, Brother Daisuke.
" Lord Uka, it's been a long time!"
" Sanji, you're here too!"
"Yes, I just brought the new players over to relieve them."
"A newcomer?"
Sanji Senju, a man in his early twenties dressed in the Senju Combat Uniform, looked at the puzzled expression on his face.
He smiled, stopped, and explained, "Some children with average talent have already completed their basic training."
"There's not much fighting in the Land of Forests, so this group of people is here to rotate through the defenses and get some training!"
Through the other party's description, Uka Senju understood the composition of these people.
He never expected that the team would be formed six months ahead of schedule, when it was originally planned to be released at the end of the year!
This also helped him understand what those extra camps were about when he passed by the city earlier.
After nodding and bidding farewell to this person from the same lineage,
Amidst the greetings of the Senju Clan Members and the courtesy of others, he led several squad leaders to the door of an office.
"Knock knock knock!"
Looking at the sign hanging above, Uka Senju knocked directly on the wooden door in front of her.
"Enter!"
A clear, familiar voice came from inside, and he pushed open the door, leading the group inside.
Seeing the person behind the desk raise their head, I walked over to the desk.
He bowed slightly and said, "Lord Chiharu, the Capital detachment has come to hand over our mission!"
Although Senju Chiharu held the highest position on the Front Line.
However, he possesses the identity of the Soratate Head of the Branch and the strength of Jonin.
This has led to a situation where, regardless of who the other party is, all that's needed for a public representative is a small gesture!
The four people who followed Uka in did not have these privileges.
They quickly bowed in accordance with etiquette when Uka made her movements.
Then he straightened up and stood silently behind the table, waiting for the person behind the table to make arrangements.
It's inconvenient to communicate more when there are outsiders present.
Looking at the white-haired boy in front of him.
Knowing who would be coming back this morning, Senju Chiharu specially cleaned and dressed up.
He maintained his usual cold expression and accepted the Scroll handed to him by the other person.
After checking the information recorded inside according to the rules, he looked at the five people standing opposite him.
Her signature cool voice came from lips that resembled the crimson maple leaves of 707: " The Capital detachment has done a great job in suppressing the rebellion and carrying out the follow-up mission. You can consider collecting the relevant rewards at the Front Line or upon returning to the village."
As she spoke, she handed five stamped sheets of paper to the white-haired boy in front of her.
"According to the assignment, Captain Tadahiro needs to return to the Logistics Middle Unit to report first, and then withdraw and rest with the Logistics Middle Unit."
"Yes, sir!" Inuzuka Tadahiro, who led the Logistics team, saluted and replied.
"Captain Gari also needs to report back to the Medical Treatment Middle Unit first before we evacuate together."
"Yes!" said Senju Gari, who led the six-person Medical Treatment team, bowing.
"Captain Sakawa, Captain Fukami, your two teams can return to the village to rest with the Wood Release Squad. Your subsequent arrangements will need to be made by your Clan after you return to the village!"
"Yes, *2!" Understanding what the other side meant, the two veteran Jonin responded.
Their squad will also face disbandment after returning to the village.
Each of their three subordinates had reached the point where they could leave their posts and operate independently.
They will also step down from their roles Jonin instructors and return to normal Ninja life.
As for why it wasn't split up in the South District, that's related to the existence of the Wood Release Squad!
Before returning to the village, the two of them still had one last bit of auxiliary work to do.
After arranging the remaining four people, Senju Chiharu turned her gaze back to the face of the person she hadn't seen for several months.
Looking at Uka's calm expression, her voice softened unconsciously as she said, " Wood Release Squad, according to the Clan's arrangements, you need to return to Konoha as soon as possible."
" The Clan will have further arrangements for your team!"
Upon hearing this, Uka Senju bowed slightly and said, "Yes!"
Seeing that the people opposite had already made arrangements.
After responding, Uka Senju left the office with the others behind her.
He closed the door behind him and looked at the group of people he had spent the last few months with.
He handed out the slips of paper to each person according to their names, saying, "Everyone has different itineraries, so the money slips are being distributed here."
"You all should discuss among yourselves whether to collect it at the Front Line or return to the village!"
Taking the paper belonging to the Medical Treatment Team, Senju Gari smiled and said to the team leader and the others, "Our Medical Treatment Team will most likely be on leave at the Command Center, so we'll go there to collect it."
Strictly speaking, their task this time wasn't particularly demanding.
Based on experience, the leave period won't last too long, so the opportunity to return to the village is definitely gone.
In a similar situation, Inuzuka Tadahiro took the paper.
He looked at the group in front of him and said with a smile, "Our Capital squad is about to disband. It was a lot of fun going on missions with you guys. Hope we can work together again sometime!"
Hearing the words of the three people in front of them, Uka Senju and the other two, who were about to return to the village together, nodded and said goodbye.
"The two of you will have the opportunity to collaborate again."
"Brother Tadahiro, Sister Gari, goodbye."
"Bye, you two! Don't worry, I'll take your things back for you!"
" Lord Uka, farewell, both of you!"
"..."
After a brief chat, the five people, splitting into two groups, left the office in different directions.
The door was closed after the five people left the room.
I glanced at the mirror next to me and found nothing wrong.
Senju Chiharu patiently listened to the conversation outside and waited.
Even after the sounds of conversation and footsteps faded into the distance, the door remained completely still and silent.
Wearing her Senju Combat Uniform, with her black hair cut to shoulder length and having tidied herself up simply today, she slowly suppressed the slight upturn of her lips that had appeared after the door closed earlier!
I stared blankly at the door for about ten minutes.
Still, I heard nothing and noticed no movement.
After glancing at the wall clock, Senju Chiharu opened the File on the table and continued working.
It's been a year and a half since I took on this task.
The Land of Bears has become history, transformed into the Land of Forests!
Then her mission was coming to an end.
All we need to do is wait for all those scattered squads to return and hand over the defenses here to the new team.
Only then will she and her Large Unit and Middle Unit be able to enjoy a long holiday.
"I really need to get back to the village I haven't visited in so long!"
With this in mind, her hands moved even faster.
In recent years, the entire South has been supported by the Clan Ninja.
Recently, the children from the Ming Clan have begun to join the front-line teams, replacing the Clan Ninja and doing simple tasks.
With the addition of these new forces, besides Chiharu's team...
Large numbers of people across the South will soon be enjoying a long holiday.
In the future, apart from the main force of fully-staffed Large Unit that must be stored,
The rest of them will be mixed with Commoners Ninja to form new teams.
And as time goes by, the burdens on the shoulders of the Clan Ninja will gradually be lightened and they will be taken over!
In short, the members of both Konoha Shinobi Clan will enter a new era in which Commoners Ninja form the grassroots force!
After saying goodbye to the two team leaders with whom they had spent several months, the three of them walked down the corridor back to the outside of the compound.
He explained the changes to the Logistics and Medical Treatment Team members.
Looking at the two beside her, Uka Senju smiled and said, " Sakawa- nii, Fukami, if there's nothing else..."
Should we go back now?
Upon hearing this, the two middle-aged men couldn't help but exchange a glance.
However, not wanting to say or ask too many questions, the two sensibly kept quiet and nodded.
He made the suggestion, looking at his teammates and friends from the other two teams.
Uka Senju's Chakra circulated within her body, and the armor on her back moved slightly.
Two wooden wings reappeared, and he floated up again, laughing as he commanded, "Everyone, target Konoha, let's go!"
After saying that, he took the lead and flew towards Konoha.
I don't know why she left in such a hurry, but Inuzuka Furin will always stand by Uka's side.
So upon hearing the order, she was the first to send her Chakra far away, leading her Ninja Dog to follow.
Because of her actions, the remaining two teams and Aburame Kaun also quickly circulated their Chakra and followed Uka away from Akifuku Castle!
Although we had been traveling all morning, we were able to take a few minutes to rest while handing in our tasks.
These Ninja, who were the same age as Uka, had also recovered their Chakra.
As for the two Jonin and Uka Senju, a member of the Senju Clan...
The exertion this morning was really nothing.
So the group once again left the city in a flying goose formation and quickly traversed the forest!
"Sir, the new team has completed its training."
He took the Scroll out of his hand, placed it on the desk, and stepped back.
The middle-aged man with silver Hatake, dressed in a black, tight-fitting Combat Uniform and draped in white armor, bowed respectfully.
"Um!"
He raised his hand to signal the other person to stand up, and then took the Scroll Senju Toka, and immediately began to examine it.
The Scroll contained information and assessment results for twenty-four individuals from eight teams, each with only code names.
She nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good, arrange for them to be stationed at Training Ground 13."
"You just need to go and hand over the reins to Kenchū Senju!"
"Yes, sir!" the middle-aged Hatake replied.
"By the way, you'll have a month-long vacation coming up. After that, return to the base to lead the team again!"
Looking at his subordinate who had just straightened up, he thought about the arrangements for this person.
As she spoke, Senju Toka signed an Appointment Letter for ' Large Unit ' and handed it over.
Upon hearing his new assignment, Hatake middle-aged man bowed again.
He stepped forward very respectfully and accepted the paper with the red stamp.
Looking at the records inside, I saw the appointment of the Large Unit the Mixed Large Unit.
With the benefits in his pocket, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
Seeing that there were no other arrangements, he bowed again and left the Senju Clan Leader's Office!
"Snap!"
The sound of the door locking echoed.
The middle-aged man wearing Hatake Konoha Forehead Protector strode out of the Government Affairs Hall and inquired about the whereabouts of Kenchū Senju from the gatekeeper.
He then hurried forward to find someone to take over!
After his subordinates left, the Clan Leader's Office in the Government Affairs Hall fell silent once again.
Only then did Senju Toka have time to carefully examine the movements of those people in the Scroll during the mission.
My nephew lived up to expectations and, during these months of reflection, reached the Jonin.
Just then, the direct subordinates that the Clan had trained for him in advance were mostly complete!
Although these 24 individuals have only just reached the Chunin level.
But these guys were carefully selected by the Senju Clan from among many bases.
Talent, personality, and loyalty!
All three are indispensable, and the evaluation is conducted by professionals.
Thousands of people began preliminary training and then refined their tasks.
Until the final list of these twenty-four people was formed!
Of course, those who made it to the second stage did not give up.
They all became direct subordinates of other geniuses from various clans!
After carefully reviewing the information, Senju Toka finally turned her gaze away from the Scroll.
She was very satisfied with her nephew's growth rate.
A 12-year-old Jonin?
Such talent places them among the top tier of geniuses in the Senju Clan.
Not to mention the added benefit of Kekkei Genkai Wood Release!
There's no other way but to let people grow up.
If a genius wants to realize their potential, they must go through this process!
Only those who emerge victorious from the fiercest battle deserve the Clan's continued investment.
Although she really wanted the little one to stay at home and carry on the family line as soon as possible.
But she understood even more clearly what was most important for survival in the Shinobi World!
So after reviewing the information on the new Wood Release team, she took out a booklet.
I started carefully searching for new tasks suitable for my nephew!
Jonin level is already considered second-tier strength.
But she couldn't rest easy until her nephew reached the Kage Level Master.
Only the nephew, with his considerable influence, was seated at the Dining Table.
Only the little guy can completely avoid becoming food!
Afternoon in Konoha.
Inside the Hokage Building, which resembles a rice cooker and stands beneath three stone-carved human faces.
I sat behind a desk piled high with File.
Wearing a divine robe and a red straw Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hokage robes looked at the disciple in front of him with a smile, who had just finished his secluded training and returned to the village!
Thinking of the thing my disciple was going to cultivate for the two years he had been missing.
He then chuckled and asked, "Is it done?"
Although the expression on his disciple's face had already given him the answer.
But that legendary technique is one that only the First Hokage is known to use, according to current records.
He still wanted to hear that affirmative answer from his disciple!
I sat opposite my teacher, whom I hadn't seen in a long time.
Now, the two signature red paint marks were only on his eyes. The white-haired Young Man, wearing a brown coat and a red short jacket, smiled and nodded, saying, "It's done!"
"While it's not perfect right now, and it can't last much longer."
"But I can already use it successfully!"
Tsunade has left the team, and Orochimaru has new things to do.
This marked the complete disbandment of the team that had existed for many years!
During that time, peace was the only thing on his mind.
So, in his empty state, he poured all his energy into a large number of tasks!
It wasn't until he returned to the village after a mission and had a heart-to-heart talk with his teacher that he was given renewed guidance.
He finally found a new goal and settled down completely.
Then, after learning of the existence of Senjutsu from the Sage Fukasaku, he chose to go to Mount Myōboku to cultivate diligently!
Although, according to the Sage Fukasaku, his talent in this area was only average.
But through perseverance and hard work, it took two years.
He still managed to learn the technique that was recorded as being known only to the First Hokage!
Hearing the disciple's reply.
Taking a deep drag on his pipe to conceal his joy, Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained his usual calm and smiled as he said, "Very good, your efforts over the past two years haven't been wasted."
"As for the minor issues that exist, I believe you should be able to overcome them once you become more proficient!"
Previously, after learning that the two Sacred Land possessed Senjutsu...
He then began to guide his two disciples to cultivate themselves.
Unfortunately, the person he had the most faith in did not have this talent.
However, the second-best choice was someone with talent who also succeeded in his cultivation, so it can be considered that his efforts were worthwhile!
Since the last attack on Danzo brought back a request for external cooperation.
Considering the benefits and the fact that it can repair Danzo's arm and restore his old friend's fighting strength.
He then nodded in agreement to cooperate with that company.
However, subsequent investigations revealed nothing about the company, neither by his own people nor by members of his three clans.
This was perfect and without any problems, yet it always gave him the feeling of dealing with a tiger for its skin!
They had already received some of the benefits, including the significant improvement and increased win rate for their side.
Faced with life and death!
Shimura Danzō, who had been completely kicked out of the circle after having a new arm installed.
After discussing it with Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, he decided to eat it first.
After all the victories are achieved, we will plan the next steps based on the situation!
Because of the existence of neutral parties.
They don't need to worry about letting wolves into their house; those neutral guys are no pushovers!
However, by not allowing outsiders to help, the profits from winning are divided up.
They still hope that they can solve all the problems on their own!
Nowadays, there is no shortage of cannon fodder and mid-level Four Clans.
They are severely lacking in top-tier combat power!
Thus, the Four Clans began the selection process, searching for key individuals to cultivate.
The disciple in front of him who had mastered Senjutsu had long been included among them!
So, regarding his next steps...
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the disciple opposite him and said with a smile, "You must be tired after two years of hard training."
"Then I'll give you a month's leave. Go back and get some rest."
" Shinnosuke just happened to be back recently, and he's been asking about you the whole time. Go visit him sometime!"
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya shook his head and then nodded.
He wiped the smile from his face and looked at his teacher seriously, saying, "Teacher, after two years of secluded study, I've had enough rest."
"Forget about a month's rest, I want to get started on the mission as soon as possible!"
"I'll go find Shinnosuke later; I miss him and his wife a lot, it's been so long."
Although he had just returned to the village, his secluded cultivation was not as easy as he had described.
However, on his way back, he gained some understanding of the current situation from his former classmates and colleagues.
After Danzo, whom I disliked, was attacked.
The area outside Konoha is no longer a peaceful place.
On the way back, we passed through an area where the two sides' forces were intertwined.
He'd encountered several of these chaotic battles between Ninja from both sides!
Although those people were mostly Commoners Ninja of lower and middle classes.
This situation clearly demonstrates the extent to which the conflict between the two sides has deteriorated!
As a disciple of a teacher, he has reached the level of Elite Jonin Ninja after activating Senjutsu.
He felt that having two years of free time was already long enough!
Upon hearing his disciple's request, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but frown.
After a moment of hesitation, his face showed some hesitation.
Seeing the unusually serious expression on his disciple's face, he finally nodded slightly.
There's no way to ignore cannon fodder, but the other side is someone they plan to develop into Kage Level fighter!
Although I really wanted to assign him an immediate task.
But he still needs to put on a show.
So, he nodded and took a few more puffs of his cigarette.
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a File from the drawer and handed it to him, saying, "I was going to let you rest before giving it to you, but since you don't want to rest, then go and accept this team!"
"They are all talented children selected from the village, and we hope you can guide and teach them well."
"Yes, teacher!" Jiraiya replied.
He took the File and carefully examined its contents.
This is a newly formed Large Unit, mainly composed of Chunin, with only seven or eight Jonin assigned to key positions.
Although their strength seems low, these are the things recorded in the Chunin information.
All of this proves that they possess sufficient potential!
Jiraiya flipped through the documents, he began to plan in his mind how to teach and train these people.
Although he was only seventeen years old at the time, he had gained knowledge and resources from learning from the Hokage since childhood.
They are far superior to these people!
After all, his teacher had a title that could be called 'Professor of Ninjutsu '!
However, his thoughts deviated from Hiruzen Sarutobi's true intentions!
After handing over the File, Hiruzen Sarutobi began rummaging through the pile of File on the table.
After a short while, Jiraiya finished reviewing the information.
He then handed over a Scroll and said, "After you take over the team, if you feel ready, go and complete this mission."
"There's Traitor in their organization now. After you help suppress him, remember to sign the contract!"
After reviewing the Scroll's contents and understanding the specifics of the task...
Jiraiya and said, "Okay, teacher!"
The next day.
The sun rose again from the east and hung in the center of the sky.
A group of eleven Ninja wearing Konoha Forehead Protector, fully armed, rushed out of the forest and arrived at the main road leading to Konoha.
Because they decided to rest properly in the wild last night instead of traveling, apart from the occasional few drops of blood on their bodies, the group showed no signs of fatigue.
"Now that we're here, there shouldn't be any fools who don't know their own mortality, right?" Wearing armor and large sunglasses that covered half her face, Aburame Kaun stood on the newly opened road and said to the people beside her.
They rested last night near the edge of the Senju controlled area.
Nothing unusual happened over there that night.
But I was on the road early this morning, a journey of only a few hours.
They encountered two waves of attacks and a chaotic battle!
The controlled area is stable, but such fierce fighting takes place at the border.
This allowed the group, who had been in the Land of Bears for several months, to quickly understand the extent of the deterioration in the situation between the two sides within the village.
Hearing the words from the side, one of the only two middle-aged men in the group stroked his chin and said, "These are all behind-the-scenes struggles; coming here means they've come out on the surface."
"Then, regardless of who's on the other side, they'll at least have to behave themselves on the surface!"
I stayed in the Land of Bears for a long time, and didn't interact much with other people on the way back.
Senju Fukami had no confidence in assessing the current situation.
I can only guess based on what I knew before!
"Brother Fukami, if you say that, then if we encounter anyone in the future, we'll have to leave everything to you!" Uka Senju, dressed in dark green armor, said with a smile to his elder brother from the same clan beside him.
None of the opponents we encountered along the way were the main force of the Shinobi Clan.
They were all Ninja trained by Sarutobi's faction.
It's easy to solve, but troublesome!
He was almost home and covered in blood, so he was a little too lazy to change his clothes.
Anyway, he could absorb the energy of anyone he killed nearby using Wood Release, even though he had already become Jonin!
Upon hearing this, Senju Fukami smiled and nodded, "Alright!"
So the team that led the team changed from Uka to his own squad.
The group of eleven people traveled quickly along the main road for about half an hour, aided by Chakra.
Before them stood a wooden wall several meters high, and a large gate bearing the Konoha emblem!
After registering your information and entering according to the rules, start from the side with the Senju.
Now, the once-prosperous Konoha, which could be described as a thriving place in the Shinobi World, appeared before everyone's eyes.
Looking at the various shops on both sides.
Following the path that the Commoners had automatically parted to make way for, the group crossed the main street and arrived at the gate of the Senju Clan Compound.
" Lord Uka, Brother Fukami, come back!"
The gatekeeper, dressed in Senju Combat Uniform and clad in armor, greeted the approaching group with a smile.
"Brother Mizuki, when did you change the front door?" Uka Senju asked curiously.
In his memory, this person had always been at the back door.
He used to frequent the fish-frying business, so he was quite familiar with this guy's team!
It seems he's now leading the team independently?
"Yes, I'm back!" Senju Fukami replied with a smile.
Senju Mizuki smiled and nodded to the latter, then looked at the former and replied, "I was just transferred last month. Takaze and Toma went to the Front Line to replace the clansmen."
"That's why my Clan assigned me to guard the front gate!"
Upon hearing the reason for the change, Uka Senju smiled and chatted with this clansman she hadn't seen in a long time for a few moments.
He then led the group around the square in front of the clan's territory and headed towards the Government Affairs Hall.
Upon entering this place where she had her own office, Uka Senju was ushered to the front by everyone.
" Lord Uka, good afternoon."
" Lord Uka, it's been a long time!"
" Lord Uka is back!"
"..."
He kept responding to the words of the Senju Clan Members along the way.
After winding and turning along the wooden corridor, we arrived at a door.
Uka Senju then raised her hand and knocked on the door of the office marked as belonging to the Senju Clan Head!
"Knock knock knock!"
Recognizing who was outside, Senju Toka, dressed in her clan attire, put down her pen.
She turned to look at the doorway and said, "Come in!"
She had always kept track of her nephew's whereabouts.
I should have been home by now, but I'll have to stay out overnight.
They should arrive by noon at the latest!
So, after lunch, she returned to her office early to wait.
Permission has been granted.
Uka Senju turned the Gate of Opening her right wrist and led her team members inside.
After passing through the entryway, I looked at the family member at the very back.
A genuine smile appeared on his face as he stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Clan Chief!"
The group followed behind Uka, including his squad and the two Jonin.
The others hadn't been here more than a few times.
This place can be considered the Hokage's office on the Clan side.
So after they entered, they all curiously looked around this room that belonged to the highest authority of the Clan!
Upon seeing Uka, the group began to address her in various ways.
"Greetings, Senju Clan Head!"
"Greetings, Lady Toka!"
"..."
Hearing the different names that came from the other side.
I glanced at my nephew, whom I hadn't seen in a long time and who seemed to have grown a little taller.
Senju Toka nodded with a smile and replied, "Get up, all of you!"
Before the mission, she was the one who hated the Tenten who spent all his time at home dating his Fiancée and nephew.
But after not seeing him for several months, she was also the one who missed the little one.
Having not seen him for so long, her nephew still seemed to have the aura of someone who had just returned home.
So she put on a smile that she rarely showed when meeting other people.
Hearing what was said on the other end, Uka Senju smiled and took the Scroll from the two people beside her.
He placed all three portions, including those from his own team, in front of his Aunt.
This document contains details of their mission and promotions stamped with the Front Line seal.
Nodding at the Scroll before her, Senju Toka and glanced at it briefly.
These things have also been reported from the Front Line.
Her job here is usually review and promotion.
So, she put down the Scroll and took out two new certificates and several sheets of paper with stamps from the side.
" Uka Senju, after being audited by the Clan, has been promoted to Jonin, and all corresponding Clan benefits have been improved."
" Kurama Shimei, after review by the Clan, has been promoted to Jonin, and all corresponding Clan benefits have been improved."
After speaking, Senju Toka placed the two documents on the table.
Uka Senju picked up a portion and shared it with her friend next to her.
The two bowed in unison in response.
Just then, a voice rang out that only Uka Senju could hear.
[Ding! Your strength has increased to Jonin!]
Upon hearing this system notification, he, who had nothing but complaints about this useless section of the system, simply ignored it!
After issuing the certificates to the new recruits, Senju Toka unfolded the paper in her hand and began preparing the new arrangements for the opposing team's third team.
Although these promotions and demotions still bear the name of Konoha.
In reality, most of the changes involve adjustments to the treatment of each individual's Clan.
Unless they were serving on the South Battlefield, their respective Clan would cover their benefits.
Because the Clan receives this money collectively within the village!
She looked at the contents of the first sheet of paper and then at the four people standing on the left, saying, "According to the Clan's needs, Banwa Squad is disbanding from now on."
Although everyone knew that their four-man team had reached the end.
But upon hearing the result, the three boys immediately became dejected.
They spent nearly two years with this Jonin instructor.
The teacher was genuinely willing to teach, and the students' understanding of the material was correspondingly quite deep!
Ignoring these normal emotional changes, the Clan's decisions are not something these people can control.
And usually, these announcements are made by people below.
If it weren't for these people and my nephew coming back together today!
How could she, the Senju Clan Head, be expected to handle such a trivial matter?
Do you really think she has a lot of free time?
So, she continued announcing the follow-up orders, "Team leader Banwa Squad Hatake Banwa, after a month's rest as agreed by the Clan."
"He should be dispatched to the South Battlefield on June 2nd, 2929, to receive orders!"
Although Hatake Banwa was also reluctant to part ways, he was, after all, a veteran Jonin.
This wasn't his first time leading a team, so he quickly replied, "Yes, Lady Toka!"
After the greeting was completed, a piece of paper was handed to him from the other side.
Knowing that this was his new Appointment Letter, Hatake Banwa immediately stepped forward to take it and then returned to his previous position.
" Kato Minami, Hatake Hashimitsu, and Yūhi Shinku, the three of you will form a new team, with Yūhi Shinku serving as the captain. I hope you can get into the swing of things quickly and contribute to the Clan once again!"
Upon hearing this expected arrangement, the three boys bowed and said, "Yes, sir!"
After saying that, Yūhi Shinku suppressed her complex emotions, including reluctance.
Stepping forward, just like the teacher had done before, I received the new appointment File.
The contents of the first sheet of paper have been arranged.
Senju Toka then turned her gaze from the left to the right.
"Based on the Clan's needs, the Fukami Squad is hereby disbanded."
Just like the left side, it was expected.
Furthermore, since the awards were given out first on the left, Kurama Shimei and the others on the right had also made corresponding preparations.
The four of them immediately stood up straight and bowed slightly to listen to the Clan's arrangements for them.
Looking at the contents recorded on the paper in his hand, he was not affected in the slightest by the previous actions.
Senju Toka continued, " Senju Fukami, the former captain of the Fukami Squad, will take a month's rest after discussions with his Clan."
"He should be dispatched to the South Battlefield on June 2nd, 2929, to receive orders!"
I heard that it was the same arrangement as my friend next to me.
Senju Fukami Shen bowed and said, "Yes, Clan Head Toka!"
He accepted the Appointment Letter handed to him with both hands.
He took a step back before straightening up to examine the contents of the paper.
When he saw that the newly appointed commander was the Large Unit of the Mixed Large Unit.
He then glanced subtly to his left.
The two newly appointed, middle-aged, veteran Jonin a glance.
They then learned roughly what the other party and their own appointments entailed!
" Kurama Shimei, Inuzuka Sawa, and Hatake Kobun, the three of you will form a new team, with Kurama Shimei serving as the captain."
"You will have a one-month leave. On June 2nd, 2929, you should join the Mixed Company 134 under the leadership of Kurama Shimei, the station chief of the South Fortress."
"The position of Middle Unit leader will be filled by Kurama Shimei. Further details regarding the new mission can be obtained from Headquarters once you arrive at the South Battlefield!"
"I hope you can get into the swing of things quickly and contribute to the Clan once again!"
After reading out a task assignment that was completely different from the previous ones.
Senju Toka then took out a Scroll from the side and handed it over.
The three members of this team are clearly much more talented than Yuhi's team.
Although they all finished training the Jonin teams at the same time.
However, the Company Commander of Yuhi's team was Elite Chunin, while the team members were ordinary Chunin.
Kurama Shimei's team, however, consisted of one Jonin and two Elite Chunin.
Keep in mind that Kurama is a 12-year-old Jonin who has awakened Kurama's Kekkei Genkai!
