XX-level Hokage

"You can do whatever you want." Konan's breath was heavy as she whispered in Mashiro's ear. "Then let's do something special," Mashiro chuckled.

Then he picked up Konan from the bed and carried her to the dressing table. He hooked a chair out with his foot and placed her on it. Konan still looked confused; she had no idea what Mashiro was going to do.

After placing Konan on the chair, Mashiro gently removed Konan's clothes and then tore them to shreds.

Using the torn strips of cloth as rope, he tied Xiao Nan to the chair in an incredibly shameful position. Then he reached out his hands.

Xiao Nan finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.

After untying the ropes binding Xiao Nan, red marks appeared on her fair skin. With a pure yet alluring air, she carried Xiao Nan to the bed, covered her with the blanket, and then quietly walked out.

Then she went to Samui's room and gently pushed the door open. Mashiro seemed to have anticipated that Samui wouldn't close the door tightly. "Is there something you need, Mashiro-sama?" Samui, who was sitting at her desk, turned to look at Mashiro and said calmly.

"It's nothing. I was just worried that some noise might disturb Samui, so I came to ask," Mashiro said with a smile. "Thank you for your concern, Mashiro-sama. I didn't hear anything," Samui said calmly.

“That’s true. The soundproofing system in the villa is very good. Unless you use some kind of ninjutsu to eavesdrop, you can’t hear anything. For example, you can use lightning strikes to stimulate your ears and increase your hearing.” Mashiro walked behind Samui, put her arm around her, and said softly.

Samui remained silent and did not speak.

“There’s one thing Samui hasn’t tried,” Mashiro said softly.

Samui looked up at Mashiro, waiting for her to continue. "ZW," Mashiro said softly.

"Would you like to see?" Samui asked calmly, her voice slightly hoarse. Mashiro nodded gently.

Samui walked to the bedside, her face beginning to flush slightly, but her expression remained indifferent and calm.

One by one, the clothes fell to the ground like autumn leaves. In ancient times, there were beauties, gentle and refined like jade.

Samui's hands trembled slightly, but he controlled them, gently reaching downwards. (The text abruptly shifts to a description of a moist area.)

The next day, Jiraiya walked into the Hokage's office, where Mashiro was already waiting.

In the past few years, aside from occasionally returning to teach Naruto, Jiraiya has spent most of his time carrying out missions and collecting material for his book. This time, Jiraiya is back because of the Five Kage Summit; he and Kakashi will accompany Mashiro to the summit.

"Little Mashiro, I haven't congratulated you on becoming the new Hokage yet. This is a gift I specially brought for you on the way." As he spoke, Jiraiya placed a small box on his desk.

Knowing that Mashiro was a disciple of the Third Hokage, she was technically Jiraiya's junior sister. "Thank you, Jiraiya-senpai. I wonder if you've gained anything during your trip," Mashiro said with a light laugh.

"Ugh, don't even mention it. After dealing with that rogue ninja, I heard about Naruto's attack, which reminded me of that mysterious organization. I've been investigating that organization for a long time, but I still haven't been able to find out its stronghold or the identity of its leader. Not only that, I haven't been able to finish researching for my new book either," Jiraiya said with a sigh.

"It's alright. Jiraiya can rest in Konoha for the next few days. We'll head to the Land of Iron after the three trials," Mashiro said softly. "Rest? That's fine. We've been too busy lately," Jiraiya said after a moment's thought.

"Also, when I went to Kumogakure not long ago, I met a few people on the way, and then we brought them to Konoha together. They said they seemed to be acquainted with Jiraiya-senpai. You can take advantage of these few days to travel around together," Mashiro said with a smile.

"Know me?" Jiraiya scratched his head. In his memory, there didn't seem to be anyone in Kumogakure who knew him. "Konan, bring Nagato in."

Chapter 155: The Five Kage Summit (Part 1)

Jiraiya looked curiously at the doorway. A moment later.

Konan pushed Nagato, who was in a wheelchair, in as they entered.

When Jiraiya saw Konan and Nagato, he was first puzzled, then surprised, and then incredulous.

"It's been a long time, Jiraiya-sensei." Looking at Jiraiya's somewhat weathered face, Konan's expression was very complicated as she spoke softly.

"You are, Konan?! And, Nagato?!" Jiraiya recalled the three disciples he had taken in Amegakure. Yes, Master Jiraiya. "Konan said with a gentle smile.

"It really is you guys! It really hasn't been long since we last met, Nagato! What happened to your eyes?! And what happened to your legs?" Jiraiya exclaimed in surprise, then looked at Nagato's eyes and legs and asked in astonishment.

Konan hesitated for a moment, but didn't know what to say. "Let me explain," Mashiro said softly.

"I met Konan and Nagato when I returned from Kumogakure. They were being chased and I happened to save them. That's when I found out they were also members of Akatsuki."

However, for some reason, they left the Akatsuki organization and were subsequently hunted down by Akatsuki members. "Mashiro explained. "You... joined that mysterious organization?" Jiraiya looked at his former disciples and said with some emotion.

"Actually, the Akatsuki organization was originally founded by Yahiko. Later, after Yahiko's death, I also became the leader of the Akatsuki. My leg is..."

It was broken at that time.

Later, we were deceived by a masked man and changed the Akatsuki's mission. We thought we could achieve world peace, but we didn't expect that we were being used. Even Yahiko's death was his conspiracy. When we discovered this, the masked man attacked me and took my eyes.

"At the critical moment, Konan helped me escape, and later we met Mashiro," Nagato said.

Konan glanced at Nagato, then at Mamoru, seemingly puzzled as to when the two of them had discussed this.

"So that's how it is?" Jiraiya's hands clenched tighter and tighter. His disciple had been tricked and reduced to this state, and he was filled with rage.

"After I saved Nagato, I heard all this from him, and then I gave him the remaining Byakugan of our Hyuga clan," Mashiro said softly. Jiraiya turned to look at Mashiro and said with utmost sincerity, "Thank you so much, Mashiro."

"Don't be shy. Take Konan and Nagato around. They haven't been in Konoha long and are unfamiliar with everything here. No, Konoha has changed a lot; you'll probably feel quite unfamiliar with it too," Mashiro said softly.

"Haha, I noticed it when I arrived. I was quite puzzled at the time. I've only been gone for less than a year, and the entire Hidden Leaf Village has expanded by half. Shiro, you are truly suited to be Hokage," Jiraiya said with a smile.

Mashiro smiled but didn't reply.

"Come with me, Konan. I know a really good barbecue restaurant. Let's have a good meal together today, and I'll pay the bill," Jiraiya said with a smile as he walked towards Konan.

Konan glanced at Jiraiya's smile, then at Nagato's recovered body, and finally at Mashiro in front of her. This was the life she wanted.

Teachers, friends, and relatives gather together and live peacefully.

"Excuse me, who are you three? What brings you to Konoha?" asked Izumo Shingetsu, one of Konoha's two gatekeepers. The visitor didn't speak, but instead took out an envelope and handed it over.

Konoha's other gatekeeper, Kotetsu, saw the pattern on the envelope, quickly took it, opened it, and read its contents.

"Please come in, three of you." He handed over the envelope. The three were Kakuzu, Sasori, and Zabuza.

Kakuzu accepted the returned envelope, and the three of them walked through the gates of Konoha together.

Mashiro quickly received the news.

After finding the three, Mashiro arranged for Kakuzu and Sasori to stay at an inn.

"You can stay here for a while. I'll have someone send the money over later. I have to go out for a bit, and I'll make arrangements when I get back," Mashiro said to Kakuzu and Sasori.

The two naturally had no objections and agreed. Then they arranged for Zabuza to stay at another inn.

"Because of Haku, I will give you two choices. The first choice is to become a villager of Konoha. I will find you a job so that you can live a stable life in Konoha."

"My second option is to join Root and secretly carry out some missions for Konoha. If you perform well, I will officially make you a Konoha ninja, and even let you mentor Konoha students," Mashiro said, looking at Zabuza.

Zabuza pondered for a long time before saying, "I choose the second option."

"A wise choice. Someone will come to see you tomorrow," Mashiro said softly, and then left.

Lying on the hotel bed, Zabuza stared at the unfamiliar ceiling. "Haku, are you alright?"

That evening, Mashiro went into Shiro's room. Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Before we knew it, it was time to depart.

I made a special trip to visit Yakumo and told him about this. I left Konan and Samui to handle the government affairs on their behalf.

He explained some important points to Han and Tayuya. He also inquired about the research progress of Kabuto and Hazakura.

After arranging everything, Mashiro, along with Jiraiya and Kakashi, walked out of the gates of Konoha amidst the cheers of the people and embarked on the road to the Land of Iron.

Similar scenarios were unfolding in the other four countries. (Cloud Village)

After arranging everything, Ai entrusted the administration of Kumogakure to Mabui, and then, together with Darui and hope, left Kumogakure and embarked on their journey to the Land of Iron.

Kurotsuchi was urging Onoki on.

"Grandpa, let's go, we'll be late if we don't leave now," Kurotsuchi said, tugging at Onoki's beard.

After several years, Heitu has grown even more beautiful, with a pair of incredibly long and slender legs that are particularly captivating.

"Stop pulling me, stop pulling me. Honestly, I didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing with my old bones, but this organization has gone a bit too far," Onoki said.

After finishing their preparations, Onoki led Kurotsuchi and Akatsuchi to the gate of Iwagakure.

"Kurotsuchi, Akatsuchi, please." A female ninja waved her hand and said from the crowd seeing them off. "Lord Tsuchikage, you need to teach the other village chiefs a lesson." Another male ninja shouted.

"At my age, even attending meetings is difficult enough, let alone carrying a bomb. They don't even know how to be considerate of me. These young people these days are all too troublesome," Onoki said, rubbing his lower back.

“Then retire, old man. You can’t keep clinging to this honorary position forever,” Black Earth said with a smile.

"Hahahaha, I'll take care of Tsuchikage's luggage," Akatsuchi said with a laugh.

"Don't touch it, Akatsuchi, mind your own business." Onoki slung his luggage over his shoulder. "That's about it."

She twisted her waist as soon as she finished speaking.

"Ahhh, my back!" Onoki collapsed to the ground.

"So, should we send someone else?" Kurotsuchi said with a mocking smile.

"Xin, you idiot, what do you take me for? I am the Great Scales of Iwagakure, the Tsuchikage who commands respect! I'll carry my own luggage," Onoki said, forcing a smile.

Chapter 156 The Five Shadows Meeting (Part Two)

Onoki strained to lift his luggage again, then twisted his back once more.

"Really, what a stubborn old man," Heitu said helplessly, rubbing his forehead.

Then, to Kurotsuchi's surprise and confusion, Akatsuchi lifted up both his luggage and Onoki's, placing them on top of his own luggage behind him, and said in a simple and honest manner, "Then you should each carry your own luggage."

Then he picked up the Tsuchikage hat that Onoki had dropped on the ground. "Let's go," Akatsuchi said with a smile.

"Fine, whatever." Onoki said arrogantly, sitting on Akatsuchi's lap. "Not very honest, old man." Kurotsuchi looked up at Onoki and said with a smile, "Have a safe journey, Tsuchikage-sama!"

As the three set off, the people seeing them off shouted in celebration. (Kirigakure)

"Then I'll leave Lord Mizukage in your care." Please don't let Lord Mizukage work too hard.

The Mist Ninja who came to see them off said to Ao and Chojuro, who were there to escort them. "Understood," Ao nodded.

At this moment, an old man, carrying a cane and holding a straw hat that signified his identity as the Water Shadow, walked forward with difficulty and tremblingly handed the hat to Terumi Mo.

“Thank you, Elder. I’ll stake my name as the Mizukage on this mission.” Terumi Momo said, taking the straw hat. Terumi Momo’s voice was very magnetic, and she exuded a mature and alluring aura.

The elder wanted to say something, but because he had no teeth and couldn't open his mouth, no one could hear him.

At this moment, a ninja who came to see him off said, "As one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, you must protect Lord Mizukage, Chojuro." "Yes, yes, I think there shouldn't be any problem," a boy who looked rather mentally challenged replied, blushing.

"You need to be more confident. You are very strong, otherwise we wouldn't have chosen you as our bodyguard during the talks, Chojuro." Terumi turned to look at Chojuro and encouraged him with a smile.

"Yes, I think I should try my best." Hearing Terumi's encouraging words, Chojuro clenched his fist and replied, "How can you be so gentle?" Looking at Terumi's smiling face, Chojuro's face flushed slightly, and he thought to himself...

"Just answer yes, that's all. What kind of careless attitude is this? That's why young people these days don't have much perseverance." Qing scolded Chojuro, rubbing his forehead and sighing.

When Mei Terumi heard Ao mention "perseverance," she misheard it as "wedding date," and her face instantly darkened. (In Japanese, "perseverance" and "wedding date" are homophones.)

"Qing, stop lecturing us. If we don't leave now, we'll miss the meeting," said one of the ninjas who came to see him off.

Mei Terumi interpreted the ninja's words as "missing the best age for marriage," and her face darkened further. "Preaching is for his own good, in our time..." Ao said.
