Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

"Zouche?"

It wasn't until Minato left that Kakashi noticed the figure standing in front of him.

Zuo Qie's face was pale and he was struggling to support his body. Even the long sword he was leaning on was embedded in the ground and trembling.

"what happened?"

"I don't know, ever since that person passed by..."

The white robe was completely soaked with sweat, and the whole person looked like he had been fished out of a pond.

Fortunately, she was wearing a black haori outside. "I'll take you to Lady Tsunade."

"it is good."

He hadn't moved a step since before and looked completely exhausted, but Kakashi didn't dare to neglect him.

After putting away the long sword for her, he picked her up horizontally.

"Kakashi! Me...and me!"

Just as I was about to leave, a sound suddenly came from the ground.

"Akai..."

Kakashi then remembered that there was Might Guy lying on the ground like a dead fish.

As the last gate before the Death Gate, the load of the Shock Gate also brings obvious sequelae to the body.

Looking at Kai lying on the ground in a big shape, Kakashi said helplessly: "I will go and tell Lady Tsunade to arrange a stretcher to carry you."

"Then please, Kakashi!"

After nodding, Kakashi hugged Sakichi and rushed towards Tsunade.

It’s not that I don’t want to bring Akai along, but it’s the aftereffects of the Jingmen. At this time, if the other party moves even a little, he will feel pain all over his body.

It is so difficult to touch that it would be a torture to take it away by force.

......

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Tsk! Isn't this our famous ninja hero, Hatake Kakashi?" Tsunade smiled and looked at the person who came.

Minato had been informed earlier, so he was naturally aware of the situation, but seeing that he was holding someone in his arms, it didn't seem right no matter how he thought about it.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled again, "Why are you... huh again?"

Noticing Sakiri's pale face, Tsunade straightened her expression and immediately put away her teasing thoughts.

"The body should not have suffered any strange injuries."

As the bright light swept over, Tsunade frowned and rubbed her chin with her hand: "I can't do much in my current state. Logically, I just need to rest for a while and I will recover naturally."

"Is that so? I see."

After explaining Kai's situation, Kakashi immediately used the "Light and Heavy Rock Technique" and rushed in another direction while holding Sakiri.

The Iron Kingdom is adjacent to the Soup Kingdom and is actually not far from the battlefield. It won’t take him long at his speed.

Seeing her drooping eyelids, obviously unwilling to close them, Kakashi whispered to comfort her: "Just fall asleep first, don't worry, I'll take you back...

"Oh no, I can't sleep! I don't even know where you live."

"...so cold."

I noticed that she was shivering and her lips were pale, obviously suffering from hypothermia.

Kakashi understood and took out a long fur coat and put it on to protect himself from the cold wind.

The clothes on the other person's body are already soaked, which is actually the key to taking away body temperature.

Besides, the Iron Kingdom is in the snow...

Why is this happening?

Is it Kaguya?

Kaguya Otsutsuki, perhaps related to the energy used by Sakiri?

There must be some connection between the two.

As the 'ancestor of chakra', Kaguya's chakra comes from the chakra fruit, and the chakra fruit... is actually a product nurtured by the energy of the entire ninja world.

Is it natural energy, related to Zouche?

Kakashi pondered secretly along the way.

......

The Fourth Ninja World War ended, with the main purpose of protecting the Jinchūriki, Naruto and Killer Bee also returned, and the Ninja World returned to peace again.

All countries also took this opportunity to cooperate to fight the enemy together. The connections between the ninja villages in terms of business trade, capital flows, etc. became significantly closer.

Not only that, after the war, the coalition forces counted all the participants, casualties, material consumption, merits and contributions, etc. one by one in units and announced them to all countries.

In the column of merits and contributions, there is even an unexpected name.

——The Fourth Hokage who had long since passed away, Minato Namikaze.

It does sound a bit strange to contribute to the world as a 'dead person'...

In order to avoid blurring the contributions made in specific battles, the coalition forces quantified everyone's contributions into a unified value based on comprehensive confrontation, support, leadership, protection, treatment, etc., so that it would be more intuitive and clear.

『Namikaze Minato』 ranked ninth with a contribution value of '32'.

As for the person at the top of the list, the contribution he made is represented by an '∞' symbol...

Konoha.

Inside the Hokage room, looking at the figure coming in, Tsunade said leisurely: "It's been a while, you finally decided to come back?"

"...Zouche really needs someone to take care of him."

"I understand, I understand!" Tsunade sneered and waved her hand.

The Iron Kingdom has a strict hierarchy and order of respect and inferiority. Logically speaking, those in power should have no shortage of subordinates and followers.

But Zoche is different.

As a high-ranking official of the Iron Kingdom, there is no one to serve him in his residence.

No.

Zouche mentioned that there was someone who took care of her...

Fortunately, the other person is not a shy person, so it is not difficult to take care of him these days.

Kakashi didn't return to Konoha until he was completely safe.

"So, after all these days of preparation, it's time for you to take over the position of the 'Sixth Hokage', right? Kakashi."
