Hokage: Nawaki Is Cold, Can You Revive It?

"The daughter of Team Leader Nohara is actually Nohara Rin!"

Even though Chiba had already made a guess in his mind, he still felt a little dazed when he saw Nohara Lin.

"Captain Nohara, I can no longer be your son-in-law. I'm afraid Obito will come back and spread my ashes..."

However, Obito should still be a little kid now, right? Laozi can hit him twice with one punch, haha! "

After joking to himself, Chiba felt a little better.

It is still at the end of the Second Ninja War. Nohara Rin is about the same age as Yahiko, one or two years younger than Yahiko and has not yet gone to school. The same goes for Obito.

Namikaze Minato is still developing the "Nimikaze Jiraiya Shuangshi Pill" to protect Kushina based on the Tailed Beast Bomb, and has not yet become a master.

"Hello, my name is Chiba."

Chiba stopped thinking, he forced out a smile, waved towards Nohara Rin and said.

"Chiba? This name looks so familiar..."

Nohara Lin's little face showed a thoughtful look. After a while, she patted her little head and said: "Brother Chiba, you are a member of my father's team, I heard my father mentioned you!"

"Team Leader Nohara mentioned me?"

Chiba was stunned at first, and then asked with some emotion: "Did Team Leader Nohara say that I am his most proud team member?"

Nohara Lin shook her head and said seriously: "No, my father said that he had never brought up such a stupid child, and he also said that you often made him very angry."

Chiba: "..."

Looking at the speechless Chiba, Nohara Lin snickered, and then she began to figure out Chiba's purpose in her heart.

"Ahem, um, this is the money that Team Leader Nohara deposited with me before."

Chiba coughed twice strategically, then took out the five hundred thousand tael banknote from his pocket and handed it to Nohara Lin.

"The team leader said that if he fails to return to the village one day, he will help him transfer the money to his family. Now I am here to fulfill the promise."

Looking at the five hundred thousand taels of silver notes in front of her, Nohara Lin did not stretch out her little hand to take it.

"He must have a good relationship with his father..."

After Nohara Lin hesitated for a moment, she raised her little head and said with a hint of pleading in her eyes.

"Brother Chiba, this is too much money. I am still young and cannot manage it well. Can you please continue to keep it temporarily?"

"If you are not embarrassed, you can use this money to buy some daily necessities when you are not busy, and come and see me from time to time, okay?"

"……All right."

Looking at the pitiful team leader's daughter, Chiba really couldn't refuse.

Of course, when faced with pitiable little girls like Lin and Konan, Chiba just treats them as his sisters and has no thoughts of punishment.

After all, he doesn't like small tablets. He only likes beautiful big sisters with amazing figures that bounce up when pressed.

"Thank you, Brother Chiba! Are you busy right now? If not, come in and have a cup of tea before leaving."

"Ah, okay, I'll excuse you, Lin."

...

It was getting late, and after staying at Nohara's house for a while, Chiba said goodbye and left.

On the way, he met the young lady from before, who was walking around the street alone, wearing a pair of fluffy cat ears on her head.

"Ah, so the cat that can do the splits refers to...?!"

Chiba was greatly shocked. In order to avoid being unable to resist the temptation, he quickly returned home.

"Hey, Chiba!"

Just as Chiba was rummaging for his keys, a figure suddenly appeared from behind him and tapped him lightly on the shoulder.

"Fuck! What?!"

Chiba was so frightened that his heart almost stopped. He turned around suddenly and saw Tsunade with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile.

"Sister Tsunade, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Halfway through the words, Chiba seemed to have thought of something and suddenly changed his words.

Snapped!

The bright smile on Tsunade's face disappeared instantly.

"Nawaki, you really deserve to die. I will remember this beating for you."

After silently suppressing the urge to hit someone, Tsunade smiled again. She raised her voice and tried to make her voice sound gentle.

"Why, I...can't I just come to you if I have nothing to do?"

"of course."

Chiba didn't notice Tsunade's strangeness. He pointed to his small house of 20 to 30 square meters and said with a smile: "My house is quite big. You are welcome to come to my house at any time, no problem~"

"Tch, it's such a big place, and I can't do anything I want to do with you..."

Tsunade curled his lips, followed Chiba into the room, and went straight to the point: "Okay, okay, I do have something to ask you."

As she said that, she took out a piece of paper from her arms and slapped it on the table beside her: "This is the registration form for the Chūnin assessment. I signed up for this Chūnin assessment for you."

"(ÒωÓױ)! Chūnin assessment?"

Chiba was confused.

Not to mention that the strongest combat power in Konoha is Genin. There is no need for him to lower himself to become a Chūnin... He is a medical ninja, why should he take the Chūnin exam?

Isn't it now a few years later that he, a non-combatant, would be able to steadily advance through the medical system based on his merits? Wouldn't it be good for him?

"What's that expression on your face?!"

Seemingly sensing Chiba's thoughts, Tsunade momentarily forgot about being gentle, and she nodded Chiba's head angrily.

"I've told you that I want you to be the person in charge of the medical reform project. If you don't meet the assessment standards for combatants, how can I continue with my plan?!"

"Go, go, I'm hungry after talking to you so much. Go to the kitchen and make me something to eat. Let's talk while we cook." Tsunade said.

"You talk while you do it, I do it and you talk about it, right? You are really good at calling people!"

Faced with Tsunade's unequal oppression, Chiba made an indignant choice...

"Okay, Tsunade-sama!"

Chiba responded, and slipped into the kitchen.

"Sometimes it's fun to be riding on someone's head. There's no need to be so shameless." Chiba comforted herself.

...

A Few Moments Later...

Chiba prepared the meal, and the two of them chatted about the Chūnin assessment while enjoying the dinner.

"Chiba, don't think that you can pass this test easily with your strength."

Tsunade took advantage of the break to pick up the food and said, "This Chūnin exam is very special. Don't blame me for not warning you. Be careful when the time comes."

Hearing this, Chiba frowned slightly.

To be honest, he really thought that this Chūnin exam was just a formality... wasn't it?

After pondering for a moment, Chiba took the initiative and asked: "What kind of special method is this, Tsunade-san?"

Since Tsunade has arranged everything for him, he can just do it and work hard to find an official position in Konoha. He will be able to live more comfortably in the future!

"As expected of the boy that I, Tsunade, like..."

Seeing that Chiba was not blindly arrogant, but humbly asked for advice from him, Tsunade nodded with satisfaction.

She put down the chopsticks in her hand and said seriously: "Before answering this question, let me ask you a question first. Do you know the real purpose of holding Chūnin assessments in each village?"

"Know."

Chiba nodded and responded: "The Chūnin assessment seems to be to select better quality ninjas, but in fact it provides a stage for each ninja village to compete openly, compete, and compete in skills."

"Many big figures will come to watch at that time to judge and examine the national strength of each country. Only by conquering them with strength can we snatch away the commissions issued by these big patrons from other ninja villages."

"You're right, Chiba."

After listening to Chiba's words, Tsunade nodded slightly, then raised a green finger and explained to Chiba: "This Chūnin assessment is a new round of 'competition' after the war between several countries."

"All major ninja villages are holding their breath, so casualties are allowed in this assessment, and various restrictions on candidates are reduced to a minimum. This is one of them."

"Secondly, Kirigakure, which has always been completely isolated from other countries, has uncharacteristically proposed to participate in the joint Chūnin assessment, which means..."

After a pause, Tsunade said with a solemn expression.

"This will be the first time in history that all members of the five major ninja villages will participate in the Chūnin assessment!!!"
