Konoha's task master

At six o'clock in the evening, Yakumo went out.

The sun is setting in the west, pedestrians are rushing, and occasionally ninjas are climbing up and down, and the quaint buildings around the streets are full of the precipitation of time.

The outside world has developed rapidly, but Konoha Hidden Village still maintains its original architectural scale.

Yakumo lowered his head and shuttled quickly. He and Aoyama Reiko agreed to have dinner at the BBQ Q and discuss the next plan.

Ten minutes later, we came to Barbeque Q as agreed.

Yakumo looked up at the eye-catching list of big eaters behind the counter. He had actually noticed it the last time he came here, but at that time the top five were all occupied by the Akimichi clan, so he didn't pay too much attention.

After all...it's normal for the Akimichi clan to eat.

But now...the big eater is number one.

But it was... Masako Mori!

Of course Yakumo knew that Mori Masako didn't have this strength.

After thinking for a moment... Yakumo suddenly realized... what Masako Mori said was an ordinary barbecue with milk balls...

...It's most likely Barbecue Q!!!

Barbecue Q is the most profitable business of the Akimichi clan. Both the materials and ingredients used are precious, which also leads to its high price...

In Masako Mori's mouth, it turned into an ordinary barbecue...

"Little rich woman, she's really nice."

Yakumo was led by the waiter to the private room that Reiko Aoyama had booked in advance, and he simply ordered food.

Ten minutes...twenty minutes...

The table was already covered with ingredients, but Reiko Aoyama still hadn't arrived. Yakumo felt a little bad... Reiko Aoyama was never late.

Yakumo fiddled with the skill interface worriedly, and the completion of the bond task allowed him to pay off the debt instantly.

And there are still 17,400 gold coins left.

Plus two master-level scrolls.

The worst plan is to upgrade the four-star continuum to the master level and directly use water escape and eight-barreled fire god Gatling...

…to cleanse the world of filth.

Fortunately, the situation that Yakumo was most worried about did not appear. Ten minutes later, Reiko Aoyama opened the door of the box.

At this time, her hair was a little messy, her eyes were full of exhaustion, and her clothes had many wrinkles.

Yakumo stood up quickly, before Reiko Aoyama poured a cup of hot tea, and poured the quickly cooked ingredients onto the baking sheet.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Aoyama Reiko cheered up and asked Yakumo with a smile.

"Fortunately, I just arrived..." Yakumo responded with a smile, and then continued to ask.

"Sister, what happened?"

Aoyama Reiko took a deep breath and lowered her voice.

"The Anbu checked to see if I had been incited to rebel by Yunyin, but I think they wanted to know more about the details of Yeyue Tianxin being killed by Lord White Fang."

"Is it...the root?" Yakumo asked softly.

"It should be right. They found me right after I left the Hokage's office, and they questioned me for half a day."

"Danzo...wonderful..." Yakumo said with a squinted smile, but there was a biting coldness deep in his eyes.

"Set a small goal..." Yakumo said.

"What?" Reiko Aoyama asked in confusion.

"Please, Lord Danzo, die within one year."

"Shut up..." Aoyama Reiko immediately covered Yakumo's mouth with her hand and whispered.

"Danzo-sama has outstanding achievements and is a member of the Konoha Elder Council. You must never say such words again... If you really do it... you will become a traitor." Aoyama Reiko's tone was a bit reproachful, and her eyes were full of hatred for Yakumo.

worries.

"Okay, okay...no more." Yakumo responded with a smile.

"Promise me...you won't allow such thoughts in the future."

"Okay, okay, I promise, sister." Yakumo saw the worry in Aoyama Reiko's eyes and quickly solemnly promised.

"After waiting for so long...you must be hungry. Let's eat first."

"Okay, I'll roast beef for my sister."

Yakumo quickly picked up the tools and began to stir up the ingredients on the baking sheet, but the murderous intention towards Danzo in his heart did not diminish at all.

He also understood...the real problem was the Third Hokage.

"How about... changing to another Hokage within three years?"

Yakumo thought in his heart, flipping the barbecue in his hands, his eyes getting darker and darker.

Especially after noticing the deep fatigue in Aoyama Reiko's eyes, she became more determined to change to Hokage.

"Hokage-sama, you agree that I will join the ANBU as a non-staff member. The deputy director of Konoha Hospital still needs me to work part-time." Aoyama Reiko picked up the roasted beef with her hands and said.

"This is a good thing." Yakumo replied, at least before Hatake Sakumo fell, his wings could protect Reiko Aoyama.

The most important thing is that Yakumo will definitely reverse that tragedy in the future...even...isn't Hatake Sakumo the best candidate for the Fourth Hokage?

"Sister, does Master Tsunade know about the Hidden Cloud Village?" Yakumo asked.

"I don't think you know that Tsunade-sama was traveling in the country of Taki when we last contacted her..."

"It's gambling, right..." Yakumo revealed.

"Tsunade-sama...you have to be more respectful!" Aoyama Reiko gently patted Yakumo's head and said a reproachful lesson.

"It's best to let Tsunade-sama know."

"You want to instigate a relationship between Tsunade-sama and the Third Hokage?" Although Aoyama Reiko is not extremely smart, she can still understand such a simple instigation.

"Tsunade-sama and the Third Hokage are both masters and fathers. How can their relationship be so easily inflamed? I just want to make Tsunade-sama feel more disappointed." Yakumo whispered.

If Tsunade knew that the Third Hokage used his best friend and disciple in exchange for benefits, Tsunade would definitely be filled with disappointment.

The topic the two discussed was a very taboo topic, but their tone was extremely relaxed.

This trip to Kumogakure completely buried Reiko Aoyama's loyalty to the Hokage and her sense of belonging to Konoha.

"Have you accumulated enough disappointment?" Reiko Aoyama asked.

"Xu Xutuzhi...change the Hokage. The Third Hokage is old and it's time to enjoy his old age." Yakumo whispered.

Aoyama Reiko's expression changed slightly. She didn't expect Yakumo to say such words. She couldn't help but sit up straight and observe Yakumo carefully.

She was present in the Hokage's office.

At that time, Yakumo showed respect and love for the Third Hokage, it was so real, as if he would shout at any time that he was willing to die for the Hokage.

But his current performance...has no respect at all.

"Suddenly I realized that I can't understand you, Yakumo."

Aoyama Reiko sighed and put the tofu cooked in the pot into her own bowl with a porcelain spoon.

"It's useless for me to just look here, and I can't meet him. The best thing is to let real people listen to the class, such as his relatives and children, and let him know that children can meet people on the Internet.

No, it’s definitely not going to work if he can’t get over this hurdle now. You have to let him find someone to test, not the virtual Xu on the Internet. I’m not satisfied with him treating his sister as an abandoned son.”

Yakumo's eyes showed real anger.

If this incident had not happened, who the Hokage was would not have had any impact on him, but Kumogakure and his party almost killed himself and Reiko Aoyama. Of course, the target of Yakumo's hatred was not just Shinichi.

Aoyama Reiko laughed to herself, secretly blaming herself for doubting the person who had saved her life in danger many times.

"After dinner, I will write a letter to complain to Tsunade-sama."

"What's the next plan?" Reiko Aoyama asked.

"There's no rush...it still depends on what Uncle Sakumo thinks."

In the current situation, the best candidate for the Fourth Hokage is Hatake Sakumo. If he gets the support of Daimyo Shinichi, Hatake Sakumo has a really high chance of becoming Hokage.
