Master, Please Become a Hokage

Even if there are dark parts in my heart, I can still walk the path of light and lead the village to the right path!

“Mitokado Uzumaki......”

Sarutobi Ryo stared at the woman's departing back and murmured.

One day, I will turn her into a weapon of the Will of Fire!

Taking a deep look at her, Sarutobi Ryo turned and left.

Mitokado Uzumaki stopped and looked back.

“Mitokado-sama, what's wrong?” Several Anbu members responsible for guarding asked.

“Nothing.”

Mitokado Uzumaki watched Sarutobi Ryo's figure stride away.

The evil that was carefully hidden at the beginning is now finally beginning to slowly break ground, gradually letting go of its disguise?

As expected, my choice of Minato Namikaze as the successor to the Will of Fire was the right decision.

Nawaki, that child... is just too soft-hearted and makes friends carelessly.

—Just like Hashirama back then.

Chapter 12. Inject the Will of Fire into Nono!

Leaving Konoha Hospital, Sarutobi Ryo was planning to go to Rin Nohara's house to inform her about assisting in the research of the corpse of the 'Storm Release Ninja, Sarui'.

On the way, he was stopped by a familiar figure.

“Ryo-shosama.”

In the bright morning sun, everything seemed to be thriving.

Sarutobi Ryo turned around and saw a golden-haired girl dressed in a nun's habit.

At first, Sarutobi Ryo didn't react slightly, but then he guessed the other party's intention.

“Nono... are you leaving Konoha.”

However, the development of the matter was not like that.

“Ryo-shosama, let's have a meal together...”

Yakushi Nono had a smile on her face, seeming very happy.

This moment, her performance is more in line with her identity as a girl, rather than the thousand-faced spy who needs to disguise.

“I've decided... to apply for retirement.”

“Oh.” Sarutobi Ryo was not surprised at all.

After all, this is how it developed in the original work.

Even Kakashi Sakumo, such a loyal minister, is going to be killed by the high-level officials of Konoha, and it is a matter of course to feel unhappy about this and want to stay away.

“After retirement... I plan to open an orphanage in Konoha.”

“Hmm?”

In short, Yakushi Nono looked away slightly and became a little restrained: “At first, I did lose hope in the village and felt that the future would not become better. But seeing Ryo-shosama, you are not afraid of authority and insist on the true Will of Fire, I feel that I have been encouraged...”

That heart, which was becoming more and more withered because of seeing too much darkness, began to revive little by little.

“You misunderstood... I'm just inheriting the will of Senior Nawaki...”

Sarutobi Ryo shook his head, his tone still calm.

Does he have the true Will of Fire? Of course, but that is the passing of the torch from Senior Nawaki.

At first, his purpose was just to get through this life.

“A single spark... can start a prairie fire.”

Yakushi Nono showed a sweet smile.

“Ryo-shosama, isn't it?”

“......”

Sarutobi Ryo stared at the girl with such a smile in front of him, just about to say something.

A new prompt jumped out in front of the retina of his right eye.

【Will of Fire System】

【New “Will of Fire Weapon”: Yakushi Nono】

【Side Mission Target: Inject the Will of Fire into Yakushi Nono!】

【Side Mission Reward: “Storm Release” possibility!】

Sarutobi Ryo: “!”

......

The following days were calm and peaceful.

Everything was not too turbulent.

As the squad leader of Anbu Squad Six, Sarutobi Ryo led his team on missions many times.

Kakashi Sakumo officially joined the Hokage's direct Anbu and received the Hokage's direct protection.

As a new Chunin, Might Guy performed well. Guy's face became more and more confident, shaking off the haze of the past. He proudly told people about his father Might Duy's deeds and was deeply proud of it.

Some subtle things are also continuing.

A certain street on the edge of Konoha, a row of buildings here was renovated, knocked and beaten, and a brand-new structure was built.

Yakushi Nono had some savings from performing missions in the past.

Sarutobi Ryo also invested in the orphanage and invested in construction.

After a month of repairs, the old house was brand new and became an orphanage.

Yakushi Nono's application for retirement was approved by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The qualification to run the orphanage was also successfully implemented.

Among them, Sarutobi Ryo naturally contributed a lot to dredge various joints.

In the end, the orphanage was successfully operating.

Those homeless children were slowly sent here.

And the orphans also affectionately called Yakushi Nono “Director”.

During this period, a fat nanny named Carrie and a middle-aged scholar named Kemp joined the orphanage and became staff members.

According to the original history.

Yakushi Nono should have left Konoha and established an orphanage in a town on the border of the Land of Fire, near Mt. Kikyo.

But...

Because of witnessing Sarutobi Ryo's actions and the result of saving Kakashi Sakumo, Yakushi Nono finally decided to stay in Konoha. To do her part for the practice of the true Will of Fire and the arrival of a bright future.

“Hee hee~.”

This morning, the sun was shining.

The children ran around in the yard.

Yakushi Nono smiled and watched this scene, and the ideal of the second half of her life was fulfilled.

Sarutobi Ryo stood beside her, still expressionless.

“Ryo-shosama, the orphanage can be successfully operated, really thanks to your help...”

Yakushi Nono turned her head and looked at the handsome young man beside her, and the love in her heart slowly rose.

In the past month.

The two have had many interactions.

Regarding the design, approval, decoration and material selection of the orphanage, the list of children... etc., they have worked together a lot.

In this process, some emotions quietly sprouted.

It is the secretion of hormones, and it is also the embodiment of Sarutobi Ryo's personality.

“Really... thank you very much...”

Yakushi Nono said from the bottom of her heart.

And in the next second, Sarutobi Ryo turned his head and stared at her: “I have received the meaning of thanks, so, what do you plan... how to thank me specifically?”

......

That night, the lights went out and everything was silent.

The children in the orphanage were all asleep.

The spacious courtyard was quiet, and the entire three-story building was located in the beautiful moonlight.

The sleeping time of the orphanage is 9 pm.

At this time, it was already midnight.

The lights on the third floor were still on.

Yakushi Nono kept telling various information she had collected over the years.

From the five major countries to the various small ninja villages.

Through her sorted scrolls and oral accounts, Sarutobi Ryo learned many secrets of the ninja world.

The conversation will eventually come to an end.

When the last note fell, Yakushi Nono's description also came to an end.

Talking heart-to-heart, she almost said everything she knew.

With various precious information, as a thank you for Sarutobi Ryo's construction of the orphanage.

“Oh.”

Sarutobi Ryo sat on the chair, staring at the nun opposite.

Yakushi Nono, who became the director of the orphanage, still had a holy expression.

With the nun's habit, she has more of a clergy's posture.

But... even the nun's habit that is so conservative that it covers her hands and feet, still can't hide her impressive figure.

“Ryo-shosama...”

Yakushi Nono watched Sarutobi Ryo stand up and slowly walk towards her.

Sarutobi Ryo approached Yakushi Nono and looked down at the nun sitting on the chair from a high position.

Being stared at by Sarutobi Ryo's hot gaze, Yakushi Nono slowly lowered her head, her fingers scratching wrinkles on the skirt.
