Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

Seeing that Naruto agreed, the system immediately began to arrange the ceremony, mainly regarding the venue and formations.

Naruto, on the other hand, planned to use these three days to explain the matters for the next month to Konoha and the ninja world.

Naruto didn't intend to hide this from everyone. After all, how could the disappearance of the Hokage for a month be kept secret? Kakashi and the others would probably be searching the whole world for Naruto like crazy.

More importantly, Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha might take some action within this month, and everyone must be reminded.

So Naruto used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to the gate of Konoha Village and saw the crowd waiting for him.

Not only Kakashi, Jiraiya, Shikamaru, and Sasuke, but also the villagers of Konoha waited for Naruto's return within the barrier.

Upon seeing Naruto's return, everyone held their breath, waiting for him to speak first.

Naruto floated in mid-air, looking around and taking in the expressions of everyone present.

Then he raised his hand.

"We have won this battle!"

Like a stone thrown into a still pond, Naruto's words caused a great stir, and the crowd below cheered immediately.

"As expected of the Hokage! The Hokage is indeed the strongest!"

"To win a war single-handedly, that's our Hokage!"

"The Fifth Hokage is too strong! He's the strongest Hokage!"

When they first saw Naruto face the army of 100,000 White Zetsu, the ignorant villagers of Konoha were very worried.

After all, regardless of the strength of those strange white humanoid creatures, their sheer number was quite intimidating.

In reality, with the strength of White Zetsu, ordinary genin would be quite difficult to deal with.

Therefore, Naruto, who was able to quickly kill 100,000 White Zetsu single-handedly, was naturally seen as an incredibly powerful being.

Not to mention the subsequent battles against the reanimated ninjas, which were so captivating that viewers couldn't keep up.

The towering Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue, over a thousand meters tall, stood before the crowd as if possessing the power to destroy the world.

But their Hokage was able to hold his own and decisively defeat the former God of Shinobi.

People naturally admire strength, and with Naruto's power, how could anyone not aspire to be like him?

After briefly calming down the villagers of Konoha, Naruto convened a meeting of Jonin.

It's worth mentioning that many of Naruto's classmates from that time also became Jonin, such as Shikamaru, Neji, Shino, and Sasuke.

The atmosphere inside the meeting room was relatively good, after all, they had just won a victory.

But Naruto still tapped the table and put on a serious expression, saying, "Everyone, the war is not completely over yet, and it's not time to relax."

After Naruto's reminder, everyone realized: Yes, this is only the first battle. In the past, which war wasn't fought fiercely and lasted for several years?

"First, I want to make it clear to everyone who our enemies are—Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha."

As soon as Naruto finished speaking, a huge uproar was stirred up in the conference room.

Regarding Obito Uchiha, since Shikamaru had previously arranged for his arrest warrant to be issued, the Jonin present would not reveal "who Obito Uchiha is".

But Madara Uchiha…

"Lord Hokage, isn't Madara Uchiha already dead?" someone immediately raised their hand and asked.

"According to known information, Madara Uchiha was also resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation, and he even broke through the control of the Impure World Reincarnation. He will not even return to the Pure Land when the Impure World Reincarnation is lifted."

After giving a brief explanation, Naruto waved his hand, and Shikamaru behind him took out a piece of information and distributed it.

The above records information related to Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha.

Some people couldn't help but worry after seeing it: "That's Madara Uchiha, the Asura of the Ninja World who was once on par with the First Hokage..."

But soon his companion patted him on the shoulder and said cheerfully, "What are you afraid of? We have the Hokage."

"That's exactly what I wanted to say. I'm afraid I'll be in a deep sleep for the next month."

These words immediately caused an uproar among the crowd. The weight of this news was even more shocking than the fact that "the opponent is Uchiha Madara".

Shikamaru and the others looked at Naruto with some surprise. Madara Uchiha was one thing, but they hadn't even known beforehand that Naruto was going into a deep sleep.

Looking at the noisy crowd, Naruto simply imbued himself with chakra and whispered "Quiet," and the meeting room fell silent.

"Next is a crucial point in my growth. Once this month is over, even if the legendary Sage of Six Paths were to be resurrected, he would be no match for me. At that time, no matter what kind of criminals are hiding in the ninja world, they will have nowhere to hide, and we will usher in true peace."

Naruto's description of the future immediately sparked endless imagination among everyone.

The Sage of Six Paths…wasn’t that the legendary being who created the world? The Hokage has become even stronger than that…

"But the condition is that I cannot be disturbed during this month." After promising the promise, Naruto then talked about the risks involved.

"As I just said, the war is not over yet. The whereabouts of Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha are still unknown. Moreover, according to the known information, they have even gathered all the tailed beasts except for the Nine-Tails and are about to revive the ultimate weapon—the Ten-Tails."

Shikamaru then distributed another document containing information about the Ten-Tails.

After all, the next challenge might be to fight against either Madara Uchiha or Obito Uchiha, who will become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki. It's necessary to find out about the enemy first.

The more they looked, the more alarmed they became.

They were all Jonin, the elite among ninjas, yet they often proved ineffective when facing Tailed Beasts.

The Ten-Tails, the culmination of the nine tailed beasts, must be unprecedentedly powerful.

Is such an enemy really something they can handle?

Naruto took in everyone's reactions and was about to say something when Jiraiya stood up first.

"Everyone, have you all been so well protected by Naruto that you've forgotten how to fight?"

"Just now, over 100,000 enemies launched an attack targeting Konoha, including powerful figures such as the previous Hokage."

"However, with Naruto protecting us, what are our casualty figures?"

"It's 0!"

Jiraiya looked around, then met the eyes of the group of Jonin.

"We are also part of Konoha, and we have enjoyed the peace and convenience that Konoha has brought us. We have an obligation to protect Konoha."

"I, Jiraiya the Toad Sage, fully support all of the Fifth Hokage's decisions!"

Soon after, Nara Shikaku also stood up on behalf of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio to show his support for Naruto.

Then there's Hinata, Aburame, Inuzuka...

In the end, all the Jonin expressed their support for all of Naruto's decisions!

This result surprised even Naruto.

When faced with a powerful enemy, fear and cowardice are the norm, an instinct.

But now, they are willing to overcome their instincts for Naruto.

This is the change Naruto brought about.

It's not that becoming Hokage guarantees everyone's approval, but rather that only those who gain everyone's approval can become Hokage.

Naruto has already achieved that.

Looking at the people who steadfastly supported him, Naruto couldn't help but feel moved.

"Thank you everyone. I promise you, I will be back in one month, just one month."

The meeting then came to a close, with Naruto leaving behind his two mentors, Kakashi and Jiraiya, as well as his fellow students, to continue explaining other matters.

"Naruto, don't worry about us, just go ahead and relax!" Choji Akimichi said casually.

"Can't you speak properly?" Shikamaru smacked him on the head in annoyance.

Naruto looked at the group of people who trusted him unconditionally and smiled slightly.

"Actually, I had three days before I fell into a deep sleep."

"I plan to use these three days to prepare more defensive measures."

Shikamaru nodded knowingly; he had been considering these things just now.

"Considering the enemy's formidable strength, which may be beyond our capabilities, I plan to focus on flanking maneuvers for the next month, establishing shelters and delaying the enemy as much as possible."

Shikamaru explained the tactics he had already decided on in detail, and occasionally asked Naruto for his opinion.

Naruto still trusts Shikamaru about these things and can leave them to him without worry. If all else fails, Nara Shikaku and the others will help.

Reviving the Ten-Tails is a huge undertaking, and Obito Uchiha will likely need some time to prepare.

Therefore, it is not necessary for everyone to defend for a month; perhaps just a few days would be enough.

Moreover, without the crucial Nine-Tails chakra, even if Obito managed to obtain a tiny fraction of it, it would be difficult to fully revive the Ten-Tails.

Therefore, in the future, Naruto will inevitably clash with Obito Uchiha and Madara Uchiha.

Jiraiya looked at his disciple and suddenly realized that Naruto had been with him for much longer than when they first met.

"Naruto, you're not a child anymore. I won't say more. Just do whatever you want. We old guys can still hold our own."

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Naruto grinned: "The Perverted Sage looks quite young."

"Haha, of course!"

Kakashi stepped forward and patted Naruto on the shoulder: "Naruto, I've been practicing the Lightning Release techniques you taught me diligently, so I do have some fighting ability."

"Kakashi-sensei, it's hard to tell who the teacher is now."

"Ahem, teachers aren't necessarily better than students in every field..."

Sasuke stood up and was about to leave: "If there's nothing else, I'll go train now."

"Well, let's go."

After completing his revenge, Sasuke did not feel empty as those stories describe. Instead, he felt that things were fine as they were, and that he might be able to see his parents again in the future.

However, the pursuit of strength is still very necessary, after all, Obito Uchiha is still at large.

After explaining what to do next to everyone, Hinata was the only one left behind.

Hinata was still a little confused about this, because Naruto had just explained the matter related to the Hyuga clan to Neji.

However, what Naruto was about to say was clearly unrelated to Hyuga, but only to Hinata.

"Naruto-kun... is something the matter?"
