Master, Please Become a Hokage

The village had reached a critical juncture, and some secrets had to be revealed ahead of time.

In this great war, the Sand Village might only be allied with the Leaf Village, but the outcome was uncertain.

Therefore... the Leaf Village had to prepare for the worst.

That was... if the Leaf Village's front line was breached and the Rock Village launched a full-scale attack.

Kushina would fulfill her mission as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and release the Nine-Tails.

Because the Nine-Tails was uncontrollable.

And the Jinchuriki would die after releasing the Tailed Beast.

The final result was still uncertain.

This could only be used as a last resort.

When that time came, Sarutobi Ryo would take Kushina and secretly infiltrate behind enemy lines, allowing Kushina to "self-destruct" on the spot.

The Leaf Village's higher-ups spoke eloquently, as if this was the only option at the moment.

However, if it weren't for the Leaf Village's higher-ups' various garbage operations over the years, how could the Leaf Village have fallen into such a state?

The Leaf Village was in constant danger of destruction, which made Sarutobi Ryo's mood heavy.

The young man with shoulder-length hair and half his face destroyed, who else could it be but Uchiha Obito?

The Uchiha clan ninjas surrounded Obito, surprised by his survival.

This was a pleasant surprise.

After all, anyone would feel this way when they saw their compatriots safe and sound.

"Fools have their fortune..."

Jiraiya stroked his chin, marveling.

Uchiha Obito, who was presumed dead, was actually still alive, interesting...

Surrounded by the crowd, Obito happily chatted with his clansmen. After escaping death, his state of mind had also changed greatly.

When he heard that the village was in danger of destruction, his first reaction was to rush over.

Namikaze Minato also had this intention.

Obito, who had transplanted Hashirama cells/White Zetsu cells, was only lacking Madara Uchiha's teachings...

This couldn't be helped.

But it wasn't a big problem.

Although Obito didn't know about the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and other things.

But the memories sent back by his future self had already allowed him to grasp a lot of information about this.

Tailed Beasts... Demonic Statue of the Outer Path... Ten-Tails...

Of course, the most crucial thing at the moment was to resolve the crisis facing the village.

"Obito, you're still alive?! That's great..."

Kushina squeezed into the crowd and hugged the young man in front of her.

Seeing Obito escape death, Kushina couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.

She had always treated Obito as a younger brother.

Now that Obito was alive, she was the happiest.

"Kushina..."

Obito couldn't help but blush and frequently looked towards Rin on the side.

But unfortunately, Rin didn't react to this.

This made Obito feel a little disappointed.

But he quickly began to cheer himself up, believing that this would be the best opportunity to show off.

"Rin, just watch me... I will definitely protect the village!"

......

"That's basically the situation..."

After entering the camp tent, Namikaze Minato spoke about the matter of rescuing Obito.

Of course, most of the details were simplified.

And Obito wasn't as naive as he seemed on the surface.

He kept his mouth shut, not saying a word about Madara Uchiha.

He only said... he was saved by a strange old man.

Given that Obito usually helped the elderly often and had a good relationship with them, everyone didn't suspect anything.

Just like that, Obito couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Madara Uchiha's matter was of great importance and shouldn't be spoken about carelessly.

On the way, he only told his most trusted teacher, Minato, about this matter.

"Well, since Obito, you've rested for so long, it's time to stretch your muscles..."

Jiraiya immediately looked at Sarutobi Ryo.

"Sarutobi Ryo, you should take Obito with you."

Jiraiya's arrangement seemed strange, but it was actually very reasonable.

Jiraiya knew that Sarutobi Ryo was a ninja with the Will of Fire.

But Obito had been missing for so long, and there might be hidden secrets.

In order to prevent him from being rescued by the enemy and changing his thinking, Sarutobi Ryo would act as a supervisor.

Namikaze Minato understood the arrangement after thinking for a moment.

Only Obito was completely kept in the dark and couldn't think of this.

He only felt that following Young Master Ryo as soon as he returned was really... awesome!

"I said that after I awakened my Sharingan, I would become a ninja even more powerful than Kakashi. Now it seems that I'm completely right."

Obito's smugness made Kakashi happy and apprehensive at the same time.

The survival of his friend immediately healed his heart.

This also allowed Kakashi to further understand the true meaning of the Will of Fire.

And... a correct and clear understanding of his own talents.

"Obito, then I'll have to rely on you next."

Kakashi indicated that you've awakened your Sharingan, you're awesome, and you can decide what to do next.

"Of course, of course." Obito nodded quickly, his expression particularly funny.

After the tasks were arranged.

Everyone dispersed.

Nohara Rin approached Sarutobi Ryo alone to explain the situation.

"Young Master Ryo, I found that there is some special chakra in Obito's body... a type that has never been seen before..."

Nohara Rin didn't know how to describe those chakras.

She only felt that... they were particularly vital.

It was simply unbelievable.

Moreover, half of his body seemed to have been replaced by a large number of other cells.

This situation was simply like a modified human in a cheap ninja novel.

"Rin, thank you for telling me these things..."

Sarutobi Ryo was now at a corner outside the tent, where no one could eavesdrop on the conversation.

Nohara Rin specifically came to him to explain the situation.

This meant that she had some small thoughts.

It was also equivalent to expressing her feelings.

"Rin... do you like me?"

Sarutobi Ryo suddenly spoke.

Nohara Rin was slightly stunned, not expecting Young Master Ryo to respond like this.

After a moment, her face turned red.

She was about to refuse, but then found that... she had already fallen in love with him.

No, the ignorance of childhood didn't count for anything.

Thinking that Kakashi was an elite and should be liked was just a child's ignorance.

And in terms of true elites, it was obviously Young Master Ryo...

In Kakashi's increasingly unsuccessful past, Nohara Rin's feelings for him naturally faded slowly.

On the other hand, Sarutobi Ryo's meticulous care, as well as the generous mission rewards and money offensive.

Under the two-pronged approach, a little girl like Nohara Rin would naturally fall quickly.

"Mm... mm..."

Then, she lowered her head, nodded slightly, her voice as inaudible as a mosquito...

Chapter 85. Alliance

"Well, I'm very happy to hear you say that..."

Sarutobi Ryo stared at Nohara Rin, having already thought out his words in his heart.

The system's prompt clearly showed Nohara Rin's progress [35%].

Almost, this was the limit for the current stage.

To continue to rise, something had to be done.

So, Sarutobi Ryo said to her: "Rin... actually, the fetus in Ruri's belly is my child..."

"!"

Hearing Sarutobi Ryo suddenly state the fact, Nohara Rin's eyes widened suddenly.

Although she had already guessed, from Ruri always living there, she could guess more or less.

But hearing it from Sarutobi Ryo's mouth was another matter.

"So..." Sarutobi Ryo hesitated, and finally just looked at her in silence.

"I, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do~."

Nohara Rin lowered her head, her eyes darting left and right, obviously her heart was very chaotic.

She found a reason, bowed, and quickly left.

Obviously, she needed some time to sort out her thoughts.
