Konoha: Start by choosing to become Hokage

The negotiations between Konoha and Kumogakure lasted for a whole week.

Hyuga Bin also traveled to Kumogakure for a week.

During this week, apart from eating every day, Hinata walked across the road and visited the "tourist attractions" of Yunyin Village.

Of course, he was accompanied by a young lady for six days this week.

Four days were spent on the kitten Yukito, and the other two were spent on Samui who made the man unable to breathe.

Before leaving, Hinata Bin and Sam, who made the man breathless, followed the "one-time acquaintance" and entered the "nodding acquaintance".

The relationship between Hinata Bin and Yukito has gone beyond "nodding acquaintance" and entered the "acquaintance" stage.

Therefore, Hinata Bin was not bored this week, and when he left, he still wanted to stay a few more days.

After all, you don’t have to spend money on food and accommodation every day in Yunyin Village, and you have a beautiful young lady to accompany you for free, and you also complete a lot of optional tasks...

For Yukito, who has been with Hinagabin for four days, she is also very comfortable getting along with Hinatabin, without having to deliberately act like a Kumo ninja jounin.

…

Before saying goodbye, Yukito, as an acquaintance, personally bid farewell to Hinata Bin.

"Bin-kun, I hope we won't be enemies next time we meet." Before leaving, Yukito half-jokingly and half-seriously said to Hinata Bin: "Because if you are an enemy, even if you are a friend, I will not stay." Hand."

"I will hold back and try not to beat you to death." Hinata Bin responded with a smile.

"Don't think that you can be arrogant just because you won. I didn't use my full strength last time." Yukito raised her little fist at Hinata Bin.

She did not fully transform into a tailed beast during the battle with Hinata Bin, and naturally she did not use the abilities after fully transforming into a tailed beast.

In the second stage of tailed beast transformation, she only used 60% of her full strength.

"What a coincidence, so am I." Hinata Bin still didn't give up.

After saying that, the ninjas from the mission behind Hinata Bin continued to urge him to set off.

"Okay, let's go." Hinata Bin waved to Yukito.

"OK Bye Bye."

Yukito also waved goodbye to Hinata and watched Hinata walk out of the village gate and disappear from sight.

…

After three days of traveling, Hinata returned to Konoha Village.

At this time, it was already the day after Namikaze Minato's inauguration ceremony as Hokage.

Hyuga Bin completely missed the scene where Namikaze Minato put on the Hokage hat and the god's robe.

"Damn it!"

Hinata Bin couldn't help but complain about Sarutobi Hiruzen, because this time he was on a mission to Kumogakure Village, so he missed the most sumptuous food in Konoha Village... No, he missed Namikaze Minato's blessing.

Although he missed the inauguration ceremony, Hinata Bin still came to the new Hokage office and sent his blessings to Minato Namikaze.

At this time, there were only a few documents placed in front of Namikaze Minato, and they were probably used to fill up the numbers. The contrast was very sharp with the mountains of official documents that the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had in the past.

"Minato-senpai, no, the Fourth Hokage-sama." Minato Namikaze had just assumed the position of Hokage, and Hinata Bin hadn't had time to change his title.

"When no one else is around, just call me Minato-senpai." Namikaze Minato smiled and mentioned to Hinata Bin the matter he discussed with Hinata Bin last time: "Hinata Bin, how did you think about the last time?"

"I've thought about it, becoming Minato-senpai's Shadow Guard is a promotion and salary increase. I have no reason to refuse." Hinata Bin had no intention of rejecting Namikaze Minato from the beginning. It was Namikaze Minato who forced him to give him a period of time. consider.

He was originally a ninja who belonged to the Namikaze Minato faction, and Namikaze Minato also promised him that after joining the Shadow Guards, he could do some work when he was not busy at work.

For such a good job, Hinata Bin had no need to refuse.

"Okay, then you will be the captain of the first detachment of my Shadow Guards. The appointment letter will be issued to you in about a week. At that time, I will go to the Hyuga clan leader to personally explain the situation." Namikaze Minato said about the "general" of Harvest Hinata Bin , very satisfied.

"Minato-senpai, how many teams do we have in total?" Hinata Bin asked with concern.

"There are currently only two teams. If you include you, there will be a total of eight ninjas." Speaking of this, Minato Namikaze didn't look very good.

"Huh? So few? Who are there?" Hinata Bin was a little confused.

There are only eight members of the Shadow Guard in a village with tens of thousands of ninjas, which makes me feel a little shabby.

You know, the number of ANBU directly under the Third Hokage exceeds 200, and nearly half of them are members of the Shadow Guard.

"Kakashi, Rin, Obito, Genma, Raidou, Washi, and Shou..." Namikaze Minato told the remaining seven members of the Shadow Guard one by one.

"Minato-senpai, these seem to be ninjas from the same period as me." Hinata Bin heard that they were all very familiar names.

Kakashi Hatake, Rin Nohara, and Obito Uchiha are his classmates, and Genma Shiranui, Raido Tamashi and Iwahi are alumni. In the middle and later stages of the original work, they can jointly perform the flying thunder god technique.

This means that, leaving aside the three of him, Nohara Rin, and Uchiha Obito, there are only five people in the Shadow Guards of Namikaze Minato in the original book.

"That's right."

"If I remember correctly, except for me and Kakashi, they are all just chuunin and genin. This kind of shadow guard..."

"I believe they can grow into very good ninjas." Namikaze Minato didn't let Hinata Bin continue, because the next words were not just about the Shadow Guards.

"Minato-senpai, I understand." Hinata Bin understood what Namikaze Minato said, but he still asked a question that Namikaze Minato didn't want him to mention: "Didn't the Third Generation arrange some ninjas?"

"Sandaime-sama also has his difficulties." Namikaze Minato glanced at Hinata and sighed involuntarily.

Obviously, at this stage, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen has not delegated power, nor has he provided any help to Namikaze Minato, the village's new Hokage.

In the original work, one year after Namikaze Minato became Hokage, the number of ninjas directly under his ANBU was less than one-tenth of the Third Hokage.

When Uzumaki Kyuuna gave birth, Namikaze Minato had no one available, so the ANBU directly under the Third Hokage were responsible for protecting her.

After a brief silence, Namikaze Minato smiled and mentioned something worthwhile to Hinata Bin: "Hinata Bin, I will get married to Katsuyuki at the end of next month. You must remember to attend then."

"Then I have to think carefully about what gifts to prepare." Hinata Bin was already thinking while speaking.

"It's enough if you come, no need to prepare gifts." Namikaze Minato said politely.

"Minato-senpai, why are you refusing in such a hurry? I'm not giving you a gift, I'm giving it to Sister Kushina."

"haha, okay."
