"This... is my way of the ninja."
Yecang was stunned.
"Please come in and sit down." Seeing Yekura's expression, Samui realized that she had been too excited, so she quickly invited Yekura in and closed the door.
The room was small and completely open. After Ye Cang sat down, he pondered Samui's words.
"What an amazing ninja way."
"You'd risk your life for that?"
Samui nodded without hesitation: "Yes."
"I am willing."
"I will try as long as there is even the slightest possibility."
Yekura shook her head. With her limited understanding, she couldn't quite grasp Samui's thought process.
Shenyue Xingyun is just a bit handsome and powerful, but his style is a bit... well, you know.
Is it that attractive?
Looking at the fanaticism in Samui's eyes, she could only say: I don't understand, but I'm deeply shocked.
Samui: "Did you come to me to persuade me to leave?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cang remembered the purpose of his visit.
She wasn't there to satisfy her own curiosity, but to find a helper.
After each workout, she had to clean up the mess despite her exhaustion. She really wanted to quit. Firstly, it was tiring; who wants to work when their back aches and hurts? Secondly, she didn't really like it.
The picky eating habit I developed as a child is hard to break.
And Samui in front of him is a very suitable candidate.
Yecang thought for a moment, organized his thoughts, and then asked Samui seriously.
"You really like the Shingetsu Nebula, right?"
Samui's eyes gleamed with fervor: "Mmm-hmm."
"Very!"
This answer did not surprise Yekura, and she asked the next question.
To what extent can you do it?
Samui didn't understand for a moment: "What level?"
Yecang: "If you had the chance to come into contact with the Divine Moon Nebula, what would you be willing to do?"
Samui's heart raced: "As long as I don't do evil or harm Kumogakure... I'm willing to do anything."
Ye Cang's complexion improved considerably.
She decided to ask more in-depth questions, including about their lifestyle habits.
"Then, Samui."
Do you have any dietary restrictions?
Samui: "...?"
Unsure of Yekura's meaning, she could only reply, "...It's alright, I don't like spicy food."
Ye Cang smiled gently.
"Don't worry, it's not spicy."
"If... I can grant your wish, what should you call me?"
Sam's eyes lit up.
After thinking for two seconds, she almost collapsed to her knees.
"Mistress!"
"If you can help me, I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life."
Yekura laughed even more heartily.
She had expected the other person to call her "sister," but instead, they called her "mistress." Still... it sounded quite nice.
"You don't need to be grateful for the rest of your life, just help me with some simple tasks."
"Come here, come closer..."
Chapter 441 Danzo: You'll Regret This
After Hiruzen Sarutobi and Seiun Kamitsuki's conversation, the atmosphere in the village began to improve.
Because the "friction" between the two finally came to a conclusion. Contrary to what everyone expected—a struggle for power and a rise to a higher position—after meeting with Shingetsu Seiun that day, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly informed the major ninja clans of his stance: he had reported to the Daimyo and appointed Tsunade as the Fifth Hokage.
In the coming period, Hiruzen Sarutobi will take care of his work and hold the Hokage succession ceremony once Tsunade is found.
The news immediately disrupted the stagnant atmosphere in the village.
All the major clans were surprised.
They had no objections to Tsunade becoming Hokage. She was of impeccable lineage, her strength was guaranteed, and she was recognized as the best medical ninja in the ninja world. They just hadn't expected that Shingetsu Seiun would give up the Hokage position that was within his grasp and choose to bring Tsunade back to serve as Hokage.
Whether he was not interested in power or had other plans, they didn't know. All they knew was that recently, Hiruzen Sarutobi had changed his demeanor and was vigorously promoting many of the village's projects that had stalled due to difficulties.
This includes, but is not limited to, repairing schools, increasing funding for orphanages, delegating some work authority, and restricting the activities of the core members and the authority of elders…
"Sun Slayer!"
"What did you do?!"
"It's one thing to be unable to defeat that guy, Shenyue Xingyun, but why restrict the activities of the Root?!"
In the Hokage's office, Danzo stormed in to confront Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Facing his angry old buddy, Hiruzen Sarutobi remained calm and composed, showing no signs of nervousness despite the other's rage.
Taking a puff of his pipe, Hiruzen Sarutobi said slowly, "Calm down."
"Try to control your temper."
Danzo: "My temper is not to be underestimated! Why restrict the activity of the root?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: "This is Shingetsu Seiun's decision."
Danzo's eyes widened: "Shingetsu Seiun's decision?"
"You're going to listen to him?!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "Mm."
"Shenyue Xingyun said that there are too many people in the Root and too much power to operate. If this continues, the Root will be no different from the leaked ones. It must be restricted."
Danzo: "Cutting funds and shrinking authority are not restrictions, they are killing my very foundation!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned: "Watch your attitude."
"What do you mean by dead or alive? Besides, that's not your root, it's the village's root."
Danzo fell silent, his eyes wide open, staring at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
One second, two seconds... ten seconds.
Hiruzen Sarutobi finally put down his pipe and said slowly, "Alright, stop looking at me like that."
"I had no choice. Shenyue Xingyun made me do this. What could I do?"
Danzo's eye began to twitch.
Listening to Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, he felt as if a volcano was about to erupt inside him, and he had to speak out.
What do you mean you have no choice?
'What do you mean, "The Divine Moon Nebula made you do this?"'
"Who are you? Who is he?"
"Bang!~" Danzo slammed his hands on the table, letting out a shout that left Hiruzen Sarutobi with mixed feelings.
"Sun Slayer!"
"You are the Hokage!!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Just a substitute Hokage."
"No matter what, there's nothing I can do. The reason is... simple: I'm no match for him."
He looked at the enraged Danzo in front of him and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Of course, if you're willing to face him or have a fight."
"I wholeheartedly agree."
"However... if a fight doesn't break out, I advise you to listen to me and properly consolidate your base."
"Cutting back on funding and controlling the scope are not major issues. We can still manage by reducing staff."
“Do as I... do as the moon and nebula say.”
"Otherwise, you'll regret it."
Danzo: "..."
He raised his right hand, which was resting on the table, and pointed tremblingly at Hiruzen Sarutobi. But facing Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was calmly smoking, the latter's face almost said, "I can't even be Hokage anymore, what's the use of saying all this?"
In the end, Danzo said nothing more, turned around and left, slamming the gate shut as he passed it!
"Bang!" The door trembled. Hiruzen Sarutobi calmly took out a document called "Root Expenses Approval Form" from the drawer, made a note next to the greatly reduced number on it, "Reduce by one thousand ryo for repairing the door", and then put it back.
The door was opened again.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked up and saw Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, showing no surprise whatsoever.
Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado didn't look too good, but they didn't get angry as soon as they came in. Instead, they asked, "What happened to Danzo just now?"
"I could hear the noise from far away."
"Oh, it's nothing," Hiruzen Sarutobi said casually. "Just acknowledging my status as Hokage and expressing some envy."
