I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

Although the improved security has led to a significant decrease in low- to mid-level missions in Konoha, the stability of public order has also resulted in a reduction in such missions.

However, with Konoha's active ninjas now incorporated into the Land of Fire's military and receiving a fixed monthly salary, Konoha ninjas' incomes have generally increased rather than decreased.

It's important to understand that Yunting's reforms are not only aimed at the Land of Fire, but also at Konoha.

Now that he holds power over both, he will naturally not allow Konoha to remain isolated from the Land of Fire as he has done in the past.

Konoha truly became a member of the Land of Fire, and Konoha ninjas also held military status within the Land of Fire. This was one of the reforms implemented by the Cloud Court.

From then on, the Konoha ninjas no longer acted like mercenaries, only going to quell banditry in villages and towns that had been attacked by bandits after receiving payment, despite being members of the Land of Fire.

As members of the Fire Country's military, they are now obligated to ensure the safety of the Fire Country's territory.

The previous task-based compensation has been replaced by a monthly salary.

With all dangers quelled within the Land of Fire and trade becoming more frequent, the Land of Fire's economic income increased, which also meant an increase in income for the ninjas within the country.

It is precisely because the Konoha ninjas nowadays not only earn more than before, but also have a guaranteed monthly income, and don't have to worry about not getting missions or not having money, that they are very supportive of the Cloud Court's reforms.

Of course, for those highly difficult missions, Yunting will issue them as military missions and provide additional high allowances to ensure that the income of the strongest Konoha ninjas will not be reduced.

anyway.

Walking down the street, the sounds of bicycles and vintage cars passing by, the beautiful music playing from the music hall, and the bustling sounds of people coming and going all mingled together, and Yun Ting smiled knowingly as he experienced all of this.

As the creator, the greatest joy is undoubtedly watching every little thing grow and thrive in your hands.

This is why he walks to the Hokage Building every day.

In any case, he wasn't worried at all that anyone would dare to assassinate him.

At this moment, Matt Kai is also enjoying the same thing.

After being cruelly stripped of the joy of singing, he devoted all his energy to the passionate physical training of his youth.

As the village expanded and his strength increased, he spent less time developing new training plans, which meant he could now practice circling the village every day.

He used to run five laps, and now that his physique has improved, he still only needs to run five laps, simply because the area around the village has also expanded.

This made him very happy, even though he wasn't very good at math.

"To celebrate the village's expansion once again, I've decided! Today I'll walk around the village upside down again!"

At that moment, amidst the astonished gazes of those around him, Kai Tusheng, who was still upside down, shouted with emotion and immediately announced with tears in his eyes.

It was just one lap, not exceeding his limit.

Having vivid memories of being hospitalized years ago after being overwhelmed by the Hokage's adrenaline-pumping training, Kai is now undoubtedly more cautious whenever he does extra training.

only......

Whatever you wish for comes true.

Just as Kai was continuing his handstand with great enthusiasm, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar hem of clothing out of the corner of his eye.

The red and white striped clothes, and the many times I heard the title "Lord Hokage".

In this moment, Kai's hands instinctively stopped moving as he instantly recalled a vivid memory from the past.

The Hokage's encouragement was undoubtedly well-intentioned.

However, in his excitement, he inevitably shouts out goals that are beyond the scope of the curriculum.

Kai really doesn't want to relive his hospitalization experience.

However.......

"A passionate youth needs to forge ahead! Excuses, compromises, and avoidances are not what youth should be like!"

Kai, encouraging himself loudly, fixed his gaze on the road ahead without flinching.

How could he, as the Azure Beast of Konoha, become weak because of past setbacks?

It's just extra practice!

Ten more laps... no! Five laps won't hurt him either!

"Greetings, Lord Hokage!" When Kai arrived at Yun Ting's side, his face immediately turned red, and he gritted his teeth, ready to be charged with a burst of adrenaline.

"Kai, good morning," Yun Ting replied.

Then, he saw Kai staring at him with eyes as wide as barbells, his body tense, as if waiting for something.

Yun Ting was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood after thinking about it.

Since he got Kai hospitalized, he hasn't been as exploitative with Kai during his workouts as before, but he'll still offer some encouragement and collect some reputation points in return.

However, things are different now than before.

Looking at Kai, who was covered in sweat and had a flushed face, it was clear that he had gotten up early to train and witnessed what Konoha Village looked like at four in the morning.

Ultimately, being kind-hearted, he didn't continue this time.

He only did it out of necessity in the past, but now that his wallet is full, he shouldn't make things difficult for honest people anymore.

To avoid giving Kai a huge boost with just a simple "good luck," Yun Ting simply smiled and nodded at him before passing through his body.

Kai was already prepared.

As it turned out, the Hokage did not do things the way he expected at all.

Kai was taken aback for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed he hadn't overexerted himself with today's workout.

Just as he was about to continue forward with a sense of relief, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Why didn't the Hokage encourage himself like he usually does this time?

Could it be... that the Hokage no longer has any faith in me?

Like a bolt from the blue, Kai, who had realized this in an instant, stood there frozen for a long time.

......

Unaware of Kai's strange thought process, Yun Ting continued walking when a white sedan bearing the Hyuga clan crest suddenly stopped beside him.

The emergence of various new industries has affected not only the Land of Fire, but also traditional families like the Hyuga.

There's no way around it, I have too much money.

Just like a precision-machined product like a car.

Cars handcrafted by the Hyuga clan, whose ninja talent may not be exceptional, but who possess the Byakugan and have extremely strong perception, are always guaranteed to be of high quality.

In addition, influenced by the aristocratic aesthetics of the Hyuga clan, their cars have always been high-end and are favored by the upper echelons of the Land of Fire and even the ninja world.

The car that is so exquisite, even to Yun Ting, is produced by Hyuga.

Those who can sit inside must be either rich or noble.

Sure enough, the car door opened, and a well-mannered, but overly shy, young lady stepped out.

"Good morning, Hokage-sama."

Suppressing her shyness, Hinata, with her long, straight black hair that didn't resemble the original character's, greeted Yun Ting with a flushed face.

The voice was so soft that if Yun Ting hadn't had such good hearing, he might not have been able to hear it.

Some of the visitors were unexpected, after all, Yun Ting knew Hinata's personality quite well.

But he still greeted the shy and adorable girl in front of him gently:

"Oh, it's Hinata. Good morning to you too. Are you on your way to the Ninja Academy?"

In Yun Ting's initial fantasy, his daughter should be a cute girl like Hinata.

but......

Forget it, it's all tears if I keep talking about it.

At this moment, upon hearing the response from the Hokage whom she greatly admired, even though it was just ordinary words, Hinata blushed so much that her ears turned red, and she lowered her head as if she wanted to fall into her chest, which was much fuller than that of her peers.

It took her a few breaths to calm down a little. She looked at Yun Ting timidly, her hands nervously clasped together, and said in a soft voice, "Yes...yes, Lord Hokage. I...I'm going to school."

Chapter 180 The New Generation

Seeing Hinata's expression, Yun Ting chuckled and teased, "Don't be nervous, I don't think I'll eat people."

He originally intended to ease the other person's tension.

However, it seems to have the opposite effect.

Hinata lowered her head even more shyly, her thin little mouth opening and closing repeatedly. The little courage she had mustered in the car earlier had been completely exhausted after she said that last sentence.

Upon seeing this, Yun Ting sighed inwardly.

There are so many rules in big families.

Hinata, being incredibly shy, admired him greatly upon seeing him, but by nature, she didn't dare to come up and greet him.

The reason they came was clearly because there was a strict order in the clan that they must greet him politely when they saw him in person.

This is indeed the case.

In the eyes of the Hyuga clan's higher-ups, as the current heir to the main family and the next head of the Hyuga clan, Hinata, at such a young age, must befriend the Hokage as soon as possible, or at least become a familiar face to him.

In addition, these old guys have recently heard a rumor.

That is, the officials of the Land of Fire are subtly suggesting that they intend to request Yun Ting to produce more fan blades.

As the Shogun of the Shogunate and the de facto ruler of the Land of Fire, it is clear to everyone that having only one descendant is far too risky to ensure the true future master of the country.

If something were to happen to the latter and the lineage were to be broken, wouldn't those of them who were already in the same boat be devastated?

You should know that none of the noble daimyo in the ninja world didn't have many wives and concubines.

Aside from being unable to resist temptation, there are also many political considerations.

In their true opinion, if Yun Ting were merely the Hokage, having few offspring wouldn't be a problem.

But now the other side is also a ruler, so we must take this into consideration more carefully.

As the ninja clan that originally resembled the most aristocratic clan in Konoha, the Hyuga clan had always maintained extensive connections with officials in the Land of Fire, and naturally knew about this.

Naturally, for the sake of their families, they also had the idea of ​​a marriage alliance.

Everyone knows that the currently powerful Yunting is the most powerful force in the ninja world.
