Hokage: I’m Enlightened Again

Team Konohamaru, who had just become Genin, received their first mission.

Help the daimyo lady catch the cat.

After a lot of trouble, Konohamaru, Moehuang and Udon finally caught the fat cat and took it to Hokage's office for business.

Hokage office.

Opening the door, Tsunade was not in the office, only Shizune was sitting in the assistant's seat next to him.

"Where's Grandma Tsunade?"

Konohamaru asked while holding the cat.

Shizune explained: "Tsunade-sama took the new medical ninja for surgical observation."

"You have to hand in a task, right? Just put the cat in the cage next to it."

Konohamaru nodded and put the cat away.

After finishing, Konohamaru looked like he was hesitant to speak.

Shizune smiled softly and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"But I guess you must want to ask: 'When will Brother Shenmu come back?'."

Shizune said, imitating Konohamaru's tone.

Konohamaru nodded: "Yeah!"

"It's been three years since Brother Shenmu left Konoha."

"Now that I have become an official ninja, why hasn't he come back yet?"

Shizune replied: "According to the latest news from Jiraiya-sama, he will be back in the next few days."

Konohamaru's face was full of surprise: "Really?! (˝ᗢ̈˝)"

Shizune nodded: "Yes."

"Three years have passed. I really want to know how far that kid Shenmu has grown."

Konohamaru was extremely excited: "Hey, after my brother Shenmu comes back, I will definitely be the top ninja in Konoha! I will exist every second! (´∇ﾉ｀*)ノ"

…

Konoha Hospital.

A major operation is taking place in the hospital.

Tsunade led the observing new medical ninjas and said, "This operation involves a lot of knowledge, and you all showed it to me, especially cell activation, which is the top priority."

A certain little medical ninja said: "It is said that Konohagakure's cell activation was developed by Shenmu-senpai. Tsunade-sama, is this true?"

Tsunade nodded with a proud expression, she became excited when she mentioned Shenmu.

"That's right. ( '▿ ' )"

"Your senior brother Shenmu is the youngest medical professor in the history of Konoha Village. He developed cell activation technology at the age of only thirteen."

As he spoke, Tsunade pointed to the ventilator in the ward that was used to keep ninjas alive.

"Moreover, he also developed Chakra conversion technology. The village applies this technology to various fields, making our village's technological level far ahead of other villages."

"What a remarkable man."

A little girl had little stars in her eyes.

A legendary young man.

It's enough to make them yearn for him just by hearing his name and deeds.

The new medical ninjas were immediately discussing in a flurry of discussions.

"And I heard that Senior Brother Shenmu is also a unique Wood Style ninja. He even mastered ice escape and captured more than ten Jōnin from Cloud Shinobi Village by himself..."

"Whether it is in the field of medicine or scientific research, he is a genius that we can't match."

"The most important thing is that Senior Brother Shenmu has red hair and is very handsome. (๑ت๑)"

"Really, I once took a look at Senior Brother Shenmu from a distance. His handsomeness is rare in the ninja world!"

"It is said that Sasuke, the rebellious ninja of the Uchiha family, is also very handsome. I wonder which one is better, him or senior brother Shenmu?"

"Don't mention that traitorous ninja in this situation..."

Amidst the chattering discussion, Tsunade waved his hand.

"Quiet!"

"I'm here today for you to observe the operation, not for you to discuss which man in the village is more handsome."

After saying that, Tsunade walked to the end of the crowd.

She patted Ino, who was at the back of these new medical ninjas, and encouraged: "Watch and study hard. You are aiming for that guy, so you can't do it without working hard."

"I know, Tsunade-sama."

Ino nodded, her eyes shining with longing.

"I heard that he will be back in the next two days. Is it true?"

Tsunade nodded: "Well, Jiraiya sent a letter back two days ago, and they will be back in the next week."

"You should dress up properly. (σ≧︎▽︎≦︎)σ."

Hearing this, Ino blushed and lowered her head: "Tsunade-sama, you are making fun of me again."

Tsunade's eyes suddenly became serious: "I'm serious. Although that guy has not been in the village for nearly three years, there are always topics about him. Many female ninjas use him as Prince Charming."

Ino was silent and reached out to touch the pendant hanging on her chest.

This is the Grayl Stone given to her by Shenmu three years ago.

Seeing this, Tsunade playfully tapped Ino's chest with his hand: "You see, you still have a big advantage compared to other female ninjas."

…

Kakashi family.

This Konoha Jōnin is lying on the bed at home, reading Master Jiraiya's famous book "Intimate Paradise".

After watching for a while, Kakashi's expression gradually became unhappy.

"I have read this book over and over twenty times!"

"Jiraiya-sama, why haven't you released a sequel yet?"

"Hey, let me just say, those two brats shouldn't be allowed to follow him. It's slowing down Jiraiya-sama's progress in writing a book! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"

"By the way, Mr. Jiraiya should be back in the next two days. Then I will remind him in person..."

…

Might Guy class.

After that major surgery, Xiao Li, who has recovered as before, is sweating on the training ground.

Neji sat next to him, holding a grass root in his mouth.

"Li, I heard that guy will be back in the next few days."

Neji seemed to mention it accidentally.

When Xiao Li was doing push-ups, he felt stiff for a moment.

After he reacted, he increased the speed of his hands.

Neji looked confused: (￢‸￢) ?

"I said he was coming back, why did you speed up your movements instead?"

Xiao Li freed up a hand to wipe the sweat that was about to drip into his eyes.

"He was incredibly strong three years ago, and now I don't know what terrifying heights he has grown to."

“He is my role model, and I don’t want to fall too far behind him. ୧⍢⃝୨”

Neji smiled knowingly: "I have been called a genius since I was a child, but compared to that kid, the term 'genius' you call me is too watery."

Tenten added: "Compared with that guy, all ninjas will pale in comparison."

…

Yuhi Hong's class.

After being seriously injured by Shenmu using a genjutsu under development two years ago, Yuhi Hong felt very embarrassed.

So she worked hard and devoted herself to the practice of illusion, and she would never let that shameful thing happen again.

"Teacher Yuhi Hong practices harder than us."

Inuzuka Kiba said.

"Yes, since being knocked unconscious by Shenmu's genjutsu, teacher has spent most of his time practicing genjutsu and has very little time to take care of us." Shino said.

Inuzuka Kiba showed an Eight Trigrams expression.

"I heard that Teacher Hong, who worked hard in cultivation, even saved time to fall in love with Teacher Asuma... Teacher Asuma must hate that boy Shenmu, hahaha..."
