Konoha: Naruto Returns from Sekiro

Every Hokage has its own personal guard, the Shadow Guard.

Their strength may not be the strongest, but they are definitely the group of people who are most loyal to Ying in the entire hidden village.

So when the three of them entered the box and looked at the familiar faces, for some reason, a sense of anticipation surged in their hearts inexplicably.

"This way!"

On the dining table closer to the center, Moonlight Gale waved at the three of them.

"You look good." Shiranui Genma looked at his rosy face and smiled slightly.

The four of them are the Fourth Hokage's bodyguards, and they know each other's situation thoroughly. Moonlight Hayate's blood-stained disease is also a problem for them.

But this kind of blood-stained disease, even the original fourth generation, can only be delayed, but there is no way to cure it.

"The fifth generation is worthy of being the founder of Ninja Village's medical system, and it can even treat blood-stained diseases." He said in a similar voice.

"Ahaha..." Yue Guangfeng scratched his head and smiled, there were some things that he couldn't explain clearly.

For example, now he cannot tell his old friends that the Godaime only helped him delay the onset of the blood stain disease, and it was his disciple who was no longer in the village who really cured him.

"Everyone, please forgive me. Shikaku was temporarily called by the Godaime to deal with some important matters." Yamanaka Hai walked in, looked around, and said in a deep voice.

"But at most half an hour, Lu Jiu can handle everything well."

"Please wait a moment!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not resentment because the master was late, after all Nara Shikahisa was famous for his punctuality in Konoha.

Compared with a wretched silver-haired man who often gets lost on the road of life, they are two extremes.

They were simply curious about what happened to make Godaime urgently summon Shikahisa Nara.

"What happened?" Qiudao Dingzuo asked in a low voice, looking at the friends who were seated.

"Because of the Akatsuki organization, the second-tailed Jinchūriki of Kumogakure Village has been captured by them. Just now, the Fifth Daime received a request for help from Kumogakure Village."

Yamanaka Kaiichi's voice appeared in his mind, and Akido Dingzao controlled his facial expression very well, and responded secretly in his heart.

"Shouldn't the Ninja Team be responsible for Akatsuki's affairs?"

"The intelligence system assigned to the ninja team by the five hidden villages can't find where the Xiao organization hides people. Yunyin village may be in a hurry and sent a letter of help to each ninja village."

"According to the existing information, shouldn't the seals of the tailed beasts be carried out sequentially? Besides, it is estimated that Nanao will be revived for a while, why are they in a hurry?"

"Maybe it's because it affects his own interests." Yamanaka Haiichi shook his head slightly, knowing that there was too little known information.

"This past year, the Five Hidden Villages have never stopped looking for the hiding place of the Akatsuki organization's tailed beasts, but what's the result?"

"Team Ninja speculates that the Akatsuki organization may have hidden the captured tailed beast in a different space. Judging from the current situation, this speculation is very likely."

"It's not that simple to find a different space without coordinates."

Akido Dingza shook his head, looking at the entire ninja world, there are not many who have mastered time and space ninjutsu.

Just as everyone was talking to each other, Nara Shikaku walked in with a young man. Everyone looked at the young man's face, some puzzled, some shocked, and some doubtful.

"What's going on?" Moonlight Gale was among the shocked group.

"I probably guessed why Lu Jiu and the others only entertained us, the old members of the fourth generation." Shiranui Genma bit the thousand copies in his mouth, his eyes were extremely complicated.

"What do you think?" Bing Zu Lei raised his chin and asked with interest.

"Look what he said."

"Sorry for keeping everyone waiting." Nara Shikahisa bowed slightly to express his apology.

"Lu Jiu, don't waste time on such insignificant things." Shiranui Genma said, "Introduce the guy behind you."

"I think most of the people sitting here are more curious about his identity."

Shikahisa Nara smiled slightly, and walked aside, leaving the stage to the boy behind him.

The young man moved lightly, his eyes colliding with the crowd without fear.

"It's interesting." A satisfied smile appeared on Shiranui Genma's lips.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Your strength is the same as other people's strength." Yueguang Qifeng said angrily.

"I don't care. Unlike some people, they can't even see the back of their own disciples."

"Just be jealous."

"My name is Naruto Namikaze." Naruto just made a brief self-introduction, but like a stone stirring up a thousand layers of waves, everyone immediately exploded.

To others, the surname Namikaze may just be a symbol of an era that has ended.

But for them, the surname is what they once believed in, what they once fought for.

"We are all adults, so I won't say anything that is a waste of time." Naruto got straight to the point, "Pick me to be the Sixth Hokage."

"I will help you get back what is rightfully yours!"

Yamanaka Hai's face changed slightly, and when he was about to stand up to speak, he was held down by his friends.

"This is different from what I said at the beginning. If these words are heard by interested people, it is easy to cause problems!" His tone was anxious.

But unlike him, Akimichi Dingza seemed very calm. He pointed vaguely at Nara Shikaku, who was standing in the corner with the old god.

"Believe Shikaku, he didn't say anything, there will definitely be no problem, and..."

He looked around at the fourth generation's old department with a passionate expression, "It works very well, doesn't it?"

Yamanaka Hai was stunned for a moment, feeling the atmosphere of being directly mobilized, and nodded slightly.

"Xuanjian, what are your thoughts?" He asked in the same way.

This guy's strength is the strongest among the four of them. Generally, when faced with such a situation, they would hand over the decision to him.

"Special Jonin has been working for more than ten years. Before retiring, I want to take off the word 'special'." Shiranui Genma said.

In particular, although a Jonin is also a Jonin, his status and power in the village are far inferior to those of a Jonin.

If there are no accidents in the fourth generation of Hokage, with his achievements over the years, he should be promoted to Jonin.

But I don't know how many times I have handed in the papers for promotion, and the reply I got is still - still under assessment!

This shit is ‘still under assessment’, do you think he is a three-year-old?

It's not because of his past, the identity of the fourth generation shadow guard prevents him from joining any faction.

Without the support of his family or faction, his assessment period would probably last him a lifetime.

Now that he finally saw hope, how could he not seize it.

Not only for himself, but also for his future children.

If ninjas like them who were born as civilians wanted to obtain good ninjutsu, they could only rely on the village.

But the village is not your own village, and things are not given to you just because you want them. You need to contribute to the village, so that the village can safely teach you ninjutsu, or teach it to your next generation.

In particular, although there is only one word difference between jounin and jounin, the ninjutsu that can be passed down to future generations is completely different.

Unless developed by oneself, the ninjutsu obtained from the village, especially the ninjutsu that can be passed on to future generations can only be B-level, but the ninjutsu that can be passed on to one's own offspring is A-level.

Not everyone is Kakashi and can develop A-level ninjutsu by himself in his teens.

"I am willing to support you!" Shiranui Xuanma thought of this, and slowly raised his right hand.
