Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

Haneda unfolded the folded paper, on which were written seven large characters: "May you become Hokage."

"What ugly handwriting. It's been four or five years and it's still this ugly."

Haneda carefully put the papers away and placed them in a hidden drawer inside the bookshelf.

After putting his things away, Haneda immediately began writing a letter.

"I have received your blessings, and I wish you all your dreams come true..."

"And also... remember to practice your handwriting, oh bitto."

Haneda then communicated with Kiku and handed it the letter he had written.

"Take the items to the memorial stone, and a masked ninja will approach you."

Chapter 245 A Hardcore Appeal for Tsunade to Return to the Village

Late at night, in front of the memorial stone.

Kakashi stood in front of Obito's gravestone, picked the withered flowers from the vase, and put new fresh flowers into it.

"Haneda has become Hokage, the Fifth Hokage."

"He will leave his own statue on the Hokage Rock, and his Sharingan will be carved in a cool way."

"Haneda will also use those imposing eyes to intimidate anyone who tries to start a war."

"Konoha will remain peaceful forever, and no one will die from war anymore."

Kakashi always had a smile on his face, but his eyes were wet as if sand had gotten into them.

He swept Obito's grave once, and then stood silently in front of Obito's tombstone for a long time.

Unbeknownst to Kakashi, a pair of eyes were watching him as always.

He didn't emerge from behind the tree or into the bushes until Kakashi left.

That was a mysterious person wearing a tiger-skin mask and a red cloud cloak; this person was none other than Obito.

He arrived at the tombstone, grabbed the flowers Kakashi had put in the vase, and threw them away.

"What's the point of mourning those we can't protect?!"

Obito shook off the flower and looked up at the Hokage Rock.

He knew that in the near future, a new statue would be added to the right of his teacher, Minato's, statue.

The statue depicts his best friend, Uchiha Haneda.

"I will end this hell in my own way."

"Everyone in the new world will live happily and peacefully forever."

Suddenly, Obito sensed something.

He, who had already blurred and was about to leave, stopped in his tracks.

An orange cat hopped gracefully towards Obito.

"This is Haneda's reply to you."

Kiku looked up, and Obito squatted down to pick up the letter.

Obito unfolded the letter and began to read it carefully.

Until he saw the last sentence, a smile suddenly appeared on his previously calm face:

“Go back and tell Yutian that he understands what I mean by ‘the pot calling the kettle black.’”

Xiaoju kept glancing expectantly into Obito's eyes, and Obito asked curiously:

Why aren't you going back yet?

"What about the agreed-upon reward? Hmm?"

Obito didn't keep fish in his Kamui dimension.

He awkwardly scratched the back of his head and then left with a divine might.

But before leaving, he didn't forget to say one thing:

"Go back to Haneda and ask him for double portions."

Kiku suddenly understood what was going on, bared her teeth and lunged at Obito, but missed.

"Damn it! I only got one serving of dried fish... Waaaaah~"

…………

Haneda succeeded as the Fifth Hokage, and Shikaku helped him write the letter to the Daimyo last night.

The next morning, Haneda copied the letter word for word without alteration and then instructed the secret service to deliver it.

His true stance will be revealed to the world when he arrives.

The letter was merely a pretext to get the daimyo to obediently come to Konoha.

After finishing these tasks, Haneda began preparing for the matter of inviting Tsunade back to the village.

After confirming Tsunade's location, he immediately delegated all of Konoha's affairs, big and small, to Kakashi and Shikaku.

Unlike the Seventh Hokage, he wouldn't do everything himself, exhausting himself to the point where he didn't even have the strength to create shadow clones.

A streak of blue light streaked across the sky above Konoha like a shooting star.

In just one hour, Haneda traversed half of the Land of Fire and arrived at the Land of Hot Springs where Tsunade was located.

He used Kagura's Mind's Eye to instantly pinpoint Tsunade's location within a radius of tens of kilometers.

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, and Tsunade looked at Haneda with surprise.

"You are... that born evil Uchiha brat?"

"What do you mean by 'born evil'? I'm clearly the Uchiha Hero that your great-grandfather described as being born kind!"

Haneda ignored the surprised looks from the people in the tavern and sat down opposite Tsunade.

"Tsk tsk~ You little brat, you've grown so handsome and stronger in just a few years."

Tsunade thought Haneda was joking and found it strange.

She recalled overhearing other ninjas mention that the Third Tsuchikage had been assassinated by Haneda, and asked seriously,

"Did you really kill Onoki?"

"How could it be fake?" Haneda retorted, then got down to business.

"As the Hokage, I order you, Tsunade, to return to the village immediately and assume the position of Director of Konoha Hospital."

Tsunade assumed Haneda had come with orders from the Third Hokage and immediately shook her head in refusal.

"Did the old man call you here? Tell him to get lost, I'm not going back anyway."

"When did you get back together with the old man and his family?"

"No, you're wrong. The Third Hokage has already abdicated. I am the Hokage now!"

Haneda turned around with a dashing air, revealing the Fifth Boss's cloak.

？ ！！

Tsunade stared at Haneda with her mouth agape, her face filled with shock:

"You didn't lead the Uchiha in a coup, did you?"

Haneda corrected him, somewhat speechless:

"I am the Hokage, a person who is upright and recognized by everyone, and I was appointed to the position last night!"

"Now, as the Fifth Hokage, I order you to return to the village to serve as an elder and concurrently as the director of Konoha Hospital!"

There was so much information that Tsunade still couldn't process it.

When did Haneda return to the village, and how did he become Hokage?

This happened so fast that she didn't even receive any news!

Tsunade asked, confused, "Wait, tell me first, how are the old man and those old men and women in the village? You didn't kill Danzo, did you?"

Haneda said, "They're all alive. I've imprisoned Danzo. The Third Hokage even visited him this morning."

"As for the other two elders, I fired them on the spot and appointed new ones."

“You’re one of them. Come back with me now.”

While Tsunade was still pondering Haneda's words, the scene changed in the blink of an eye; the tavern had become a familiar office.

"Flying Thunder God Technique? You actually learned that!"

Tsunade suddenly realized something, and vague memories from her childhood flooded her mind.

This feeling of traveling through time and space is almost the same as my second grandfather's Flying Thunder God technique.

At that moment, Haneda snapped his fingers, and a chair grew out from under Tsunade.
