On the day Lei Luo arrived at Mt. Miaomu, the exchange with the Great Toad Immortal came to an end. Since both parties were very satisfied with the outcome of the conversation, the practice of Immortal Mode was formally announced without any delay.
The toad oil quenched body feels the natural energy, grasps the process between ordinary chakra and sage chakra, and organically combines one's own abilities, ninjutsu blood inheritance, and sage mode...
There are many steps for Lei Luo to practice, and the requirements for deep work are also very strict. It is conceivable that the time spent on this practice will not be too short.
Since he had not devoted himself to cultivation for too long, Lei Luo, who was mesmerized in the ocean of natural energy, had no idea at all:
What interesting things will happen next after leaving Konoha where the Hokage sits.
"What? Lei Luo is gone?"
In the Hokage's office, Uzumaki Makoto looked at Nonou who was sitting behind the desk with a surprised look on his face. From the corner of his eye, he quietly looked at Jiraiya and Shima beside him.
"Yes, Lei Luo went to Miaomu Mountain and said that he wanted to practice some kind of magic called immortality. For now, he has left all the affairs in the village to me, so..."
With a calm expression on the surface, Nonoyu imitated Lei Luo's usual appearance, crossed his fingers in front of his face, and said calmly in a Hokage-like manner:
"Cheng, if you have anything to do, just tell me."
"Are you acting as Hokage..."
His eyes quickly rolled in his sockets, and Uzumaki Makoto seemed to come to his senses quickly, with a heartfelt smile on his face, and he said to Nonou with an extremely enthusiastic attitude:
"Miss Nonoyu, it's like this..."
"The manpower of the second village plan is a bit short, and you know the geographical location of Kawanoguni, and Sunagakure has always had bad intentions towards our Konoha, so I need the village to provide me with a group of capable combat forces.
"
Noonoyu naturally knows about the second village plan. Thanks to handling various government affairs for Lei Luo for many years, he not only knows all the details of this plan, but also understands that Uzumaki Makoto is the new person in charge after Danzo's death.
people.
At this moment, facing Uzumaki Makoto's request, Nonoyu did not respond immediately. Instead, he frowned and thought about what Lei Luo had said to her. After half a minute, he said:
"Are you capable of fighting? Do you want to..."
Without even a moment's hesitation, Uzumaki Makoto opened his mouth and answered:
"In addition to the 800 people from our Uzumaki clan, I think we need at least 200 people from the Uchiha clan, 200 people from the Hyuga clan, and Ino, Deer and Butterfly..."
As Uzumaki Makoto reported more and more numbers, Nonoyu's anxiety grew heavier and heavier, while Jiraiya on the side couldn't help but look at Nonou and Uzumaki Makoto with suspicion.
Second village plan? What is that?
Before Uzumaki Makoto could finish speaking, Nonoyu took a deep breath, suddenly knocked on the table, interrupted the other party's words, and then forced himself to pretend to be calm and said calmly:
"Cheng, you'd better wait for Lei Luo to come back before talking about this kind of thing. Otherwise, even if I agree to you now, let's not talk about whether those ninjas are willing to accept it. Just talk about Lei Luo..."
"I think you don't want to see Lei Luo get furious when he sees the mess we made in the village after he came back, right?"
Nonou's question made Uzumaki silent for a moment, but soon his expression returned to normal, and he smiled with interest and replied:
"That's true. Ms. Nonoyu is worthy of being the personal secretary who has been with the Yondaime for many years. She does things in an organized and measured manner. I admire you Uzumaki."
Sensing that Uzumaki Makoto's attitude seemed to have changed a little inadvertently, Nonoyu subconsciously pressed her glasses. Although a calm smile appeared on her face, she was actually very confused in her heart.
Nonoyu didn't understand what Uzumaki Makoto's inexplicable performance meant. Was he saying the truth? He sincerely praised himself? He also didn't know whether there was something wrong with his response just now.
But, no matter what...
Since I decided to follow Lei Luo's instructions and now sit in the position of Hokage, the most important thing is to try my best to maintain peace and stability and not cause any trouble.
Not asking for merit but seeking no faults, doing things that can be done, and never agreeing to things that can't be done easily. This is Nonou's stance at the moment, and it is a principle that must be strictly followed.
Seeing Nonoyu pretending to imitate Lei Luo's words and deeds, Uzumaki Makoto had a strange look in his eyes. He coughed lightly, and when Nonoyu seemed to have no intention of replying, he smiled slightly and said:
"If nothing happens, I'll go back first."
"Wait a minute, Cheng." Realizing that Uzumaki Cheng was about to leave, Nonoyu hurriedly raised his hand to pull him down, and then said in a sincere tone: "Lei Luo told me before leaving, saying that if there is anything wrong,
I can come to you if I have any questions that I understand, so please take care of me in the future.”
Uzumaki Cheng paused, turned his head and glanced at the woman behind the desk, a kind smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and replied decisively: "That's easy to say."
When Uzumaki Makoto opened the door and left, before Nonoyu could take a breath, Jiraiya on the side suddenly spoke:
"Miss Nonoyu, would you mind telling me what the second village plan is about?"
Hearing the slightly serious inquiry in this tone, Nonoyu didn't want to say more, but thinking that Uzumaki Makoto would start preparations soon, the news that would be caused by then would definitely not be hidden from the ninjas in the village, she thought
After thinking about it, he still answered calmly:
"Well...the details of this plan were from a few years ago..."
As Nonoyu slowly stated, the expression on Jiraiya's face also changed from solemnity and confusion to understanding and understanding. Along with it, there was also a little thoughtful enlightenment. At the same time, some small thoughts also appeared.
emerged in his mind.
Throughout the afternoon, I met various ninjas and businessmen who came to the Hokage's office to look for Naruto. Even though Nonoyu was still relatively young, he still felt completely exhausted. He just felt that this was simply not a job for humans.
.
However, it is obvious that physical fatigue has not dampened the excitement that has been lingering in her heart: no matter how tired or sleepy she is, she now undoubtedly has the highest power in Konoha.
Thanks to Lei Luo's usual style of conduct, he, the Hokage, basically speaks the truth, and few people dare to raise objections in front of him. Konoha is simply Lei Luo's one word.
In other words, this one-word style of doing things is a pyramid-like power structure. Now that Lei Luo is gone, the top of the pyramid has obviously been transferred to Nonoyu.
Tell the truth...
Seeing those usually arrogant big shots being obedient in front of him, with polite and cautious attitudes, no matter how gentle and peaceful Nonoyu's character is, he can't help but feel secretly happy at this moment.
