My older sister is Kushina

The data scroll contained very detailed information about the members of the first squad of the Anbu. However, what frustrated Uzumaki Hanamichi was that only three of the nine were Jonin, and the rest were Chunin. To be honest, the strength of Chunin was a bit weak. But thinking about it, it's not surprising. Although the Anbu in the Naruto Memories looked high-class, many of them seemed to be weak.

"Although the members of the first squad are a bit weak, they all have their own areas of expertise, and with proper training, they should still have a bright future."

Uzumaki Hanamichi secretly pondered, carefully reviewing the information of the first squad members. Each member had their own outstanding qualities. For example, Hyuga Himaru possessed the Byakugan, making her an absolute master of reconnaissance. Moreover, the close combat skills of the Hyuga clan members were also excellent.

Soon after, Whirlpool Flower Ditch put away the document scroll.

He has to return this scroll to the Fourth Hokage tomorrow, since the Anbu's information is classified.

After putting away the scroll, Uzumaki Hanamichi stretched and then got up and walked out of the house.

"Time to go check out the shop!"

Uzumaki Hanamichi quickly walked out of the courtyard. He had now joined the Anbu and become the captain of the first squad, but this was his hidden identity. His public identity was still Konoha Gourmet. As for how to balance the two, he had already figured out a way.

The method is simple—the Shadow Clone Technique.

He had long mastered the Shadow Clone Technique, which he developed through the Ninjutsu Research and Development System based on the clone technique. In addition, he also mastered other clone techniques such as the Water Clone Technique and the Earth Clone Technique.

Whirlpool Flower Path plans to open a restaurant.

Previously, he ran a small sushi restaurant in Konoha, which was highly praised by the villagers.

However, this time, Hakuzo Hanamichi doesn't plan to open a sushi restaurant, but instead plans to open a nighttime shop—Midnight Diner!

I have wine, do you have a story?

A late-night diner with a story to tell!

In the few days since returning to Konoha, Uzumaki Hanamichi has actually looked into potential locations and found two suitable ones, but he hasn't made a final decision yet.

Whirlpool Flower Path carefully examined the two storefronts again, and after some deliberation, finally made a decision.

He chose a storefront less than 100 meters away from Ichiraku Ramen.

The storefront is small, with a total area of ​​only twenty or thirty square meters.

Regarding the store design, he plans to create an open kitchen.

This way, he can interact better with the guests.

A dish that can truly impress a customer's palate isn't something you can decide; it needs to be something the customer can appreciate.

Everyone has their own personal recipe for flavor.

Therefore, in the view of Whirlpool Flower Arrangement, delicious food is not fixed, but varies from person to person.

Whirlpool Flower Path paid the rent directly to the landlord.

This storefront now officially belongs to him.

After the homeowner left, Whirlpool Flower Path began tidying up the shop.

Before I knew it, I was busy until dusk.

Whirlpool Flower Path walked out of the shop, locked it, and looked at Konoha bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, a hint of anticipation appearing on his face.

This is a wonderful era, and also a cruel one.

The next morning, Whirlpool Flower Path made a simple breakfast—a bowl of egg noodles.

After finishing breakfast, he quickly and quietly went out.

He first went to the Hokage's office and returned the scroll of Anbu documents to the Fourth Hokage.

After chatting with the Fourth Hokage for a while, he headed to the Anbu.

He issued the order to assemble yesterday.

As the newly appointed captain of the first squad of the Dark Division, he felt it was necessary to communicate with his team members.

The meeting time is nine o'clock.

Whirlpool Flower Path arrived more than ten minutes early.

However, two team members had already arrived before him.

The two were dressed in ninja armor and wore ANBU masks, but it was not difficult to tell from their figures that they were a man and a woman, with the woman having a rather voluptuous figure.

Uzumaki Hanamichi glanced at them and quickly identified the two. The woman was Hyuga Hima. Currently, only two of the nine members of the first squad were women. One was seriously injured and in the hospital. The one in front of him was naturally Hyuga Hima, and her dark side had the iconic red flame pattern.

Each member of the Dark Division has their own unique mask.

Yesterday, Uzumaki Hanamichi had carefully reviewed the information on the Dark Division, especially the information on the members of the First Squad. He remembered the characteristics of each member's mask.

The man is Shihei Aburame, a member of the Aburame family, who is skilled at manipulating parasitic insects.

As Uzumaki Hanamichi entered the small hall, Hinata Hima and Aburame Shihei both turned their attention to the new captain.

Wearing a wolf-head mask, Whirlpool Flower Path nodded to the two team members.

Afterwards, three more team members arrived: Akimichi Fat Thorn, Hirayama Chōsei, Inuzuka He, and his ninja dog, Kuroga.

The Ninja Dog Black Fang is a large dog with entirely black fur, somewhat resembling a Tibetan Mastiff.

In addition, four other team members were injured in the Nine-Tails' attack and are still in the hospital, so they can't come.

Thus, the first squad of the Dark Division is now complete.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Uzumaki Hanamichi began, "The main reason I've gathered you all here today is to get to know you. As you know, I only took office yesterday, so you probably don't know much about me. First, let me introduce myself. My name is Wolf Fang. I was on an undercover mission and only recently returned to Konoha..."

After he introduced himself, he asked Hyuga Himaru and the others to give a brief self-introduction as well.

Although I had read the profiles of several team members, the self-introduction was still a small interaction.

Afterwards, the group discussed the relevant mission details.

As the first squad of the Anbu, they have corresponding duties and tasks. Their main duties are to ensure the safety of the Hokage and to carry out the Hokage's orders and missions.

Whirlpool Flower Arrangement clearly defines each person's task.

The meeting of the group of people ended quickly, lasting about half an hour.

Finally, Uzumaki Hanamichi left behind Hinata Hima.

He inquired about the condition of the four injured team members from Hyuga Mai, and together they went to Konoha Hospital to visit them.

The four hospitalized team members are in good condition and have been out of danger; they only need to rest for a while.

After leaving the hospital, Uzumaki Hanamichi went to the Hokage's office.

His main task now is to protect the fourth generation.

Minato Namikaze said, "Ado, I spoke with Kakashi, Might Guy, and Kurenai Yuhi this morning, and all three are willing to join the Anbu First Squad. However, the specific arrangements for joining the squad will take a few more days."

Uzumaki Hanamichi nodded: "No problem."

Minato Namikaze said, "As for Shisui Uchiha, it's still uncertain, but he'll be coming to see me this afternoon. You can check on things together then."

Whirlpool Flower Path: "Okay."

Minato Namikaze said with a hint of expectation, "I hope he will volunteer to join the First Squad."

Uzumaki Hanamichi is also looking forward to it. Kakashi and his trio have already been confirmed to join the Anbu First Squad. If Uchiha Shisui can also join, it will definitely be an improvement to the strength of the First Squad.

At 3 PM, there was a knock on the Hokage's office door.

Soon, a figure entered, led by the Hokage's secretary.

The newcomer was eleven or twelve years old, with black hair, wearing a Konoha headband, a dark-colored high-necked short-sleeved shirt and triangular protective gear, and carrying a small katana on his back. He looked somewhat immature.

He was none other than Uchiha Shisui.

Uchiha Shisui entered the Hokage's office and immediately bowed to Namikaze Minato: "Hokage-sama!"

Minato Namikaze nodded, giving Shisui Uchiha a bright smile: "Shisui, this is the newly appointed captain of the first squad of the Anbu, Wolf Fang."

Whirlpool Flower Path was standing not far from the Fourth Generation.

Uchiha Shisui looked at Uzumaki Hanamichi and then politely greeted him.

Whirlpool Flower Path nodded in response.

After a brief greeting, Minato Namikaze didn't beat around the bush: "Shisui, I've asked you to come here because there's something I want to discuss with you."

Uchiha Shisui showed a hint of curiosity.

Minato Namikaze continued, "I want you to join the First Anbu Squad. You should know about the Nine-Tails incident a few days ago; the First Anbu Squad suffered the most severe losses. As an important part of Konoha, if something happens to the Anbu, it will have a huge impact on Konoha..."

By elevating the issue to the level of Konoha, Minato Namikaze also wanted to try his best to win over Shisui Uchiha. Before this, he and Hanamichi Uzumaki had carefully studied the information about Shisui Uchiha. Shisui Uchiha was a descendant of Kagami and was deeply influenced by him from a young age, so he had a high level of awareness.

After listening to Minato Namikaze's words, Shisui Uchiha seemed to be moved, but he did not immediately agree to join the first squad of the Anbu. Instead, he hesitated and said, "Hokage-sama, I cannot make a decision on this matter yet. I hope you can give me some time to consider it."

Minato Namikaze laughed and said, "Of course, think it over carefully before you give me an answer."

Uchiha Shisui nodded.

Afterwards, Minato Namikaze and Shisui Uchiha talked about the situation in the village. The situation in the village was somewhat tense. Although the Nine-Tails incident was classified as a secret incident by the Konoha leadership, the commotion that night was too great, and it was unlikely that it could be completely sealed off. Other ninjas were probably already spying on it in secret. At present, Konoha was only trying to hide the losses as much as possible.

During the Third Shinobi World War, both Minato Namikaze and Shisui Uchiha witnessed it firsthand and participated in many battles. They deeply understood the cruelty of war. The two shared the same ideals, hoping for peace in Konoha and world peace.

Uzumaki Hanamichi stood beside the Fourth Hokage, but didn't say anything.

A standard bodyguard!

However, he overheard the entire conversation between Minato Namikaze and Shisui Uchiha. It must be said that the Fourth Hokage was very clever; the conversation seemed to have brought him much closer to Shisui Uchiha.
