Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

Shizune forcefully took Tsunade from her.

Rei Amamiya and Jiraiya stood there, watching helplessly as Shizune carried Tsunade away.

All her efforts were in vain, and the light in Rei Amamiya's eyes went out.

However, he quickly regained his composure.

Anyway, Tsunade has already returned to Konoha. As long as she's on Konoha's territory, Tsunade can do whatever she wants with him.

The light in Jiraiya's eyes also went out.

Kakashi entered the izakaya and walked towards Rei Amamiya, saying succinctly, "Rei, I'll take you home."

Jiraiya: "..."

It's so bright!

I really want to challenge Kashi!

Several black lines slid down Rei Amamiya's forehead.

He didn't need Kakashi to deliver it to him at all; he was perfectly lucid.

"Kakashi-senpai, you've come at the right time. Jiraiya-sama has had quite a bit to drink. Could you please take him home?"

Rei Amamiya looked at Kakashi earnestly.

Kakashi: "..."

Unable to refuse Rei Amamiya, he involuntarily looked at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya's face broke into a satisfied smile: "Kakashi, you can take me back now!"

Kakashi turned his gaze away expressionlessly, not wanting to see Jiraiya.

"Thank you for your help, Kakashi-senpai!"

Rei Amamiya expressed her gratitude.

Kakashi took a deep breath and shook his head: "You're welcome."

"Then I'll go back first."

Rei Amamiya nodded to them and turned to leave the izakaya.

Rei Amamiya disappeared from Kakashi's sight, and Jiraiya put his arm around Kakashi's shoulder.

"Take me back, Kakashi!"

Jiraiya smiled and raised an eyebrow at Kakashi.

Kakashi walked towards the entrance of the izakaya, with Jiraiya following behind him, pouting, "Kakashi, that attitude won't do!"

Kakashi ignored him.

"Kakashi, Muzan is indeed a bit strange."

On the way back to the hotel, Jiraiya said seriously.

Kakashi paused and looked at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya stroked his chin, recalling the events as he spoke, "Sometimes Muzan's words give me a strong sense of unease, and some of his answers always seem to have a hidden meaning."

Jiraiya dared not speak for others, but he was certain: "Muzan definitely has a secret."

Chapter 460 How did she become Hokage?

Two days later.

The carving of the Fifth Hokage's head has already begun.

But it stopped today.

Today is the momentous ceremony marking the succession of the Fifth Hokage.

Almost everyone crowded onto the central street of Konoha.

Including the artisans who carved the Fire Shadow Rock.

Some people arrived at the main street before dawn to secure the best viewing spots.

The morning dew was still clinging to the trees next to the Hokage Building, and the four main roads leading to the building were already packed with people.

Wow! There are so many people!

Matt Kai stood in the crowd, tiptoeing to look around, and all he could see were countless heads.

Might Guy kept nudging Kakashi with his elbow: "Luckily we arrived early! Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to get good spots!"

Kakashi nodded, his gaze fixed on the rooftop, waiting for Rei Amamiya to appear.

"Look!"

Might Guy continued elbowing Kakashi: "Asuma and Kurenai are here too! Over there!"

Might Guy pointed it out to Kakashi.

Kakashi glanced in the direction Might Guy was pointing and, sure enough, saw the sweet and affectionate Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi. It was obvious that something was off between the two of them.

Since the last attack on the village by the leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult, Asuma and Kurenai's relationship has progressed rapidly.

Soon, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu appeared in everyone's sight.

"Is it just my imagination?"

Matt Kai scratched the back of his head. "The two elders seem much more energetic now!"

Kakashi looked at Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, who were standing on the rooftop of the third floor of the Hokage Building.

It wasn't Matt Kay's imagination; the two men did indeed look radiant and full of energy today.

"People are always in high spirits when they have something good to do!"

Matt Kay revealed eight pearly white teeth.

Wasn't he also in high spirits because of a happy occasion?

Just yesterday, Lady Tsunade and the Hokage collaborated on the surgery to treat Rock Lee.

The surgery was a great success. Once he recovers, Lee will be able to become a ninja again and continue his training!

Might Guy gazed at the rooftop, waiting for the new Hokage to appear!

Xiaochun, who was turning over, was holding a tray in her hands.

The tray held a robe symbolizing the Hokage's status.

Mitokado Homura held a straw hat, a symbol of his Hokage status, in his hand.

Both of them looked behind them at the same time.

Rei Amamiya's figure came into everyone's view.

He passed by Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, stood on the edge of the rooftop, and waved to the people below the Hokage Building.

Thunderous applause and cheers surged toward Rei Amamiya like a tidal wave.

Among the dense crowd, Rei Amamiya saw many familiar faces.

He wore a gentle smile, like a spring breeze brushing through the crowd.

Mitokado Homura stepped forward, his voice steady and resonant: "Today, Konoha Jonin Rei Amemiya officially assumes the position of Fifth Hokage of Konoha!"

As soon as Mitokado Yan finished speaking, a tsunami-like roar erupted from the crowd below the rooftop.

"Great!"

"My sister is the best!"

Naruto put his hands to his mouth and shouted like a megaphone.

Muzan's eardrums hurt from the loud voice.

Sakura Haruno stared intently at the beautiful Hokage on the rooftop.

The Fifth Hokage is more beautiful than cherry blossoms.

However, beauty is the least noteworthy of the Hokage's virtues.

Sakura Haruno pursed her lips, her emerald green eyes flashing with determination.

She will definitely become a ninja as excellent as the Hokage!

Beside Sakura Haruno, Ino Yamanaka screamed, "Aaaaaaaah! The Hokage is amazing!"

He was clearly a die-hard fan.

Sakura Haruno looked around and saw that everyone around her, whether she knew them or not, was cheering for the Hokage.

Koharu stepped forward, and Tsunade took the Hokage robe from the tray in her hand.

Tsunade draped the Hokage robe over Rei Amamiya's shoulders, a relieved smile on her face.

Tsunade placed her hand on Rei Amamiya's shoulder and said, "Good luck, Rei!"

Rei Amamiya was taken aback, his red eyes filled with tears, and he nodded heavily: "I will!"

Mitokado Homura handed the Hokage hat to Amemiya Rei.

Rei Amamiya took the straw hat and put it on his head.

Looking at Rei Amamiya, who was wearing a straw hat and Hokage robes, Kakashi felt a moment of disorientation.

Through Rei Amamiya's current appearance, Kakashi seemed to see the Rei Amamiya who first appeared before him.

At that time, Rei Amamiya had just been betrayed by a friend, and was like a hedgehog covered in sharp quills.

Thinking back to the past, Kakashi's lips slowly curled up into a smile.

He stared intently at Rei Amamiya waving to the crowd.

He can stay with Zero forever.

very nice.

Despite being across the street, the cheers could still be heard clearly.

In the hospital ward, Sasuke leaned against the window, looking in the direction of the Hokage Building.

Rei Amamiya...

She is indeed the best candidate for Hokage.

Sasuke didn't care who the Hokage was.

But since the Hokage is Rei Amamiya, he will congratulate Rei Amamiya.

A burning sensation came from my shoulder.

Sasuke reached out and covered the cursed seal on his neck with his palm.

On the rooftop.

As Rei Amamiya stopped waving his hand, the cheering crowd quieted down.

Countless pairs of burning eyes were fixed on Rei Amamiya.

This legendary ninja brought glory to Konoha!

"Standing here now, I see not only the people cheering for me, but also the eyes of the Hokage of past generations watching over me from the Pure Land, and the heroic spirits who sacrificed themselves in war and missions."

"Their eyes are a constant reminder to me to shoulder the responsibilities of Hokage!"

Rei Amamiya's voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

His voice was full of deep emotion.

This brought tears to the eyes of the crowd below.

"In the name of the Fifth Hokage, I swear: I will live up to the name of Hokage and protect Konoha, the villagers, and my comrades until my death."

"When a crisis comes, I will always be at the forefront!"

Rei Amamiya's last half-sentence was drowned out by a deafening roar.

The villagers were filled with hope.
