"Sixth Hokage, please wait."
The Fourth Kazekage anxiously finished watching the Chunin Exams, and seeing the Hokage's chair being directly lifted to leave, he hurriedly called out to stop him.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ke looked over, a bit puzzled.
Now that he was the Hokage, he definitely had to put on a show. One Retractable Chair was not enough. In a couple of days, after the Chunin Exams, he would be attending the Five Kage Summit.
The Fourth Kazekage organized his words and said, "Regarding the upcoming Five Kage Summit, I wonder what the Sixth Hokage's thoughts are?"
Losing a Jinchuriki could very well be the fuse that ignites a war. With the Raikage's lack of brains, as the intelligence suggests, it's very likely that a war could break out.
The Sand Ninja Village and Konoha Village, as allies, have a perfect opportunity to jointly face the enemy.
What? Secret deals with the Hidden Stone Village? Don't go around saying things that would damage the alliance.
"Oh, you mean that," Lin Ke said, not really thinking too much about it. "It has nothing to do with us. We're just going to join in on the fun."
It's not that he couldn't imagine that there might be problems, he just didn't care.
Don't let the Five Kage Summit sound so grand. In reality, it's just the leaders of five great nations sitting together to negotiate. It's essentially a meeting where they make demands and compromises.
The problem is that Konoha Village has nothing to ask for right now.
The World Number Two base, which originally needed supplies from the Main World, no longer lacks anything due to the establishment of the Ninja Alliance. With the productivity of the ninjas, the World Number Two side began to support the Main World last month.
Otherwise, how could the village refuse so many lucrative war missions and still maintain operations? It's because the World Number Two is transporting profits.
The Main World is still in a state of recovery. In Senju Tobirama's plan, after resolving Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and the Ninja Alliance is on the right track, producing enough management personnel, he will return and deal with all the other Naruto Villages in the Main World.
A proper dealing, forcibly integrating them into the Ninja Alliance, disbanding the villages, and abolishing all Kage except for the Hokage.
Therefore, the Five Kage Summit is completely irrelevant.
The Fourth Kazekage didn't know what to say for a moment. He really wanted to pick up the little brat in front of him and loudly question whether he understood what politics was.
"Anything else? If not, I have things to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Lin Ke was planning to go to the Seventh Training Ground to train and relax his mind. Before dawn, the Anbu guarding near his house would regularly wake him up to go to work.
Sitting in the Hokage Office, flipping through documents, and listening to the two Advisors explain the handling of intelligence and personnel transfers, gave him the feeling of having to attend early morning classes.
His body wasn't tired, but his mind was.
He should train for a bit, then go back to the office to continue learning. Although he felt he wasn't suitable, since he was sitting in this position, he had to learn to adapt.
If it really didn't work out, he could think of ways to run away in the future.
"My subordinates recently went missing within the Land of Fire..." the Fourth Kazekage tentatively inquired.
"You mean the Anbu who ran over trying to infiltrate, right?" Lin Ke flipped through the processing documents sent by Mitokado Homura in the Net, and recited the quoted price given above, saying, "Pay the money to get the people."
"Nothing else, right? See you tomorrow, Fourth Kazekage."
Before his voice faded, the Shadow lifted the chair and left.
[Lin Ke is still the same as ever.]
A hint of nostalgia flashed in Gaara's almost imperceptible eyes. It was really great that his friend hadn't changed even after becoming a 'Kage'.
The Fourth Kazekage was a little speechless at the Hokage's willfulness. He suddenly realized that Sasori had also left at some point behind him. He wanted to be angry, but it turned into a helpless sigh.
If possible, who wouldn't want to be as willful as Lin Ke?
It's just that his strength doesn't allow it. He is still the Kazekage because no one in the village can take over. The only one who is qualified and capable is Sasori of the Red Sand, whom everyone dislikes.
A similarly willful and self-centered guy who can't even pass the Jonin's vote of confidence.
[Speaking of which, how did Lin Ke pass the Jonin's vote of confidence?] - Evening, Hokage Office.
"Ugh~"
Lin Ke stretched and closed the file, yawning, and said, "Thank you both, Advisors. Let's call it a day."
"Thank you for your hard work, Sixth Hokage." Mitokado Homura bowed respectfully and left.
Utatane Koharu paused at the door and said, "Sixth Hokage, please find a Hokage Assistant as soon as possible. Homura and I are preparing to retire to World Number Two next month."
According to Senju Tobirama's reorganized mission system, to be reincarnated, one must obtain at least 10,000 contribution points. Previous merits and hard work are not counted at all and must be accumulated again.
So far, apart from Namikaze Minato, the young man from Konoha Village Number Two, no one has collected enough. If the two old guys continue to stay in the Main World and loaf around, they may not be able to collect enough in decades.
It's better to go to World Number Two early. It is said that there is also a shortage of manpower there, and management personnel are even more scarce. The sooner they save enough contributions, the sooner they can be reincarnated.
Only those who are old know how difficult it is to endure aging.
"Okay." Lin Ke watched the two Advisors leave with a relaxed expression, then sighed with a troubled face.
What to do?
Konoha Village really doesn't have anyone who is qualified, capable, and willing to take over.
The best candidate is actually Kakashi, but that guy runs to World Number Two to perform tasks every now and then, as if he has 'escape' written all over his face.
[Hokage Assistant, seems to be quite difficult to find. Can't find a little kid, can't ask Master Shikaku to come and help, right?]
The work of the Jonin squad leader is also quite a lot, and he may not have time.
"Click~" The office door was opened a crack, and Mitarashi Anko poked her head in, carefully glanced around, and seeing that he was alone, she pushed the door open and strode in, saying casually, "Congratulations, Lin Ke."
She walked naturally to the desk, patted her chest, and smiled, "I voted for you, you have to treat me."
"Ahem~" Lin Ke cleared his throat and said with a straight face, "Call me Hokage-sama."
Mitarashi Anko sat relaxedly on the desk and said, "Don't tell me you're going to be so distant with me?"
"Hey, you" Lin Ke was just about to pretend to show the Hokage's prestige when the window was smashed open with a click.
A familiar orange figure rushed in, yelling, "Fifth Hokage-sama, Fifth Hokage-sama!"
Naruto of the Main World did not have a story with Tsunade, so he is still quite polite in his address.
"I heard that a grown-up me became the Hokage, eh, Lin Ke?"
He was stunned, looked at the short figure wearing the Hokage robe and Hokage Cloak, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Don't wear that outfit casually, Third Grandpa will scold you."
As for why he knew that wearing the Hokage robe and Hokage Cloak would get him scolded, that's another story.
"Hey, kid." Mitarashi Anko jumped off the table, put her hands on her hips, and said, "You have to be polite to the Sixth Hokage~"
Uzumaki Naruto was stunned, looking at Lin Ke with a reserved smile, then turned his head to look at Anko with a serious face, his eyes blinking.
"Huh?"
