Naruto: In the name of time, shock the ninja world!.

"The ramen is here, enjoy your meal." Just when the atmosphere was stagnant, the boss's voice came at the right time, breaking the silence.

Hoshino Feng chuckled, said nothing, lowered his head to smell the steaming aroma, and started eating.

"Ahem, boss, give us one too." Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed lightly and said to the boss.

"Okay." The boss agreed happily, his face lit up with joy, and then he went into the kitchen and started working bustlingly.

After saying that, the scene became quiet again, leaving only the sound of slurping noodles.

Sarutobi Hiruzen communicated with Uchiha Kagami with his eyes, and they exchanged glances.

Xingye Feng knew it very well, but he didn't stop it, otherwise they would feel uneasy.

"How have you been, Xiaofeng?" After receiving the relieved look from Uchiha Kagami, Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting with Hoshino Kaede.

"Is the food good?"

"Is there anyone you like?"

It sounded reasonable at first, but the last sentence made Xingye Feng raise his head with a slightly strange expression.

Was there an inappropriate remark mixed in here?

Uchiha Jing's mouth twitched and he turned his head away, unable to bear to look.

Even the teammates behind him had strange looks in their eyes.

Akimichi Qufeng pulled the corner of Hiruzen's clothes and whispered, "Huruzen, Xiaofeng is only nine years old, you are a little too anxious."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly realized what was happening and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, sorry."

Hoshino Feng shook his head helplessly and concentrated on the ramen in front of him.

But after this incident, the atmosphere finally relaxed, and everyone gradually let go and no longer took those rumors to heart.

Talking to Kaede Hoshino also brought back the familiarity I had before.

After waiting for a while, all the ramen was served, and the hot aroma filled the entire store.

Sarutobi Hiruzen clicked his tongue and praised his boss.

"Boss, your cooking skills are still as good as ever!"

"Hey, it's all thanks to the customers. I'm far from that." The boss said modestly, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"Huh... I'm full and feel so comfortable! It feels like I'm in a hot spring." Hoshino Kaede said, touching his stomach with a satisfied look on his face.

Seeing how happily he was eating, the others couldn't help but speed up their eating, and soon, they had finished all the food.

"You guys have been very busy lately, completing tasks every day, don't you take a break?"

Hoshino Kaede said while picking his teeth.

Sarutobi Hiruzen scratched his head and said helplessly: "There is no other way. There are too many tasks piled up in the village. Some of them have to be done."

God bless you, who doesn’t want to enjoy a leisurely vacation at home, but this is not possible.

Xingye Feng tutted his tongue and said in a rather annoying tone: "Ah, you guys are really tired. Unlike me, except for the occasional tasks given to me by the teacher, I spend the rest of my time in Konoha."

"I feel like all the parts of my body are rusting!"

This wave of Versailles was full of sarcasm, mocking a group of people and successfully arousing their resentment. They looked at Xingye Feng with unfriendly eyes.

The chopsticks in his hand made a squeaking sound, as if he would rush forward in the next second.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Xingye Feng coughed lightly a few times, changed the subject and asked.

"Hey, is there someone missing? Where's Danzo?"

"Why didn't he come?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took two deep breaths, calmed his restless heart, and said with a complicated expression.

"He...he has been very persistent in his mission recently. I don't know what he has been doing."

Akimichi Tofu secretly ordered a few more bowls of ramen, picked up the ramen and started eating, speaking incoherently.

"For some reason, Danzo is often not in Konoha these days."

"Even we have only met a few times, and we were out most of the time."

Speaking of Danzo, everyone seemed to open their mouths and talk about him.

But it is not difficult to hear from their words that they are worried about Danzo.

They are teammates and friends who have been together since childhood, so how can I not care about him?

His recent behavior of pretending to be crazy is really unsettling.

Hoshino Kaede keenly observed that a trace of confusion flashed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

But it was hidden so well that no one else noticed, not even Uchiha Kagami.

"No wonder it's the Third Hokage. His political wisdom is not low. Although it's just a guess, others haven't even touched the edge."

Xingye Feng sighed and glanced at the others.

Danzo has been completing missions like crazy these days just to gain merit and improve his prestige among the villagers.

To pave the way for the next Hokage.

After the continuous reforms and weakening of family concepts by the Second Hokage.

Civilian ninjas are also rising up like mushrooms after rain. Even if they are not as good as the ninja clan, they should not be underestimated.

This is no longer the time when Konoha was just established.

If you want to become Hokage, you not only need to be strong enough, but also need the support of the villagers, at least there cannot be too many opponents.

The Danzo of today is not the Danzo who hid in the darkness later.

There is still love for Konoha in his heart, and selfish desires are only a small part of it.

He admired Tobirama, approved of his governing philosophy, and later followed his attitude towards the Uchiha.

Believes that the Uchiha are evil and must be eliminated.

Although this can be called prejudice, in some ways, he is the most like Tobirama.

Well, we are highly consistent in dealing with family issues.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, on the other hand, is more like a combination of Hashirama and Tobirama.

Hesitant and lacks decisiveness in big matters, but does well in small matters.

Such a contradictory person is still called a ninja hero.

It is undeniable that Konoha's economy developed during his reign.

This achievement is indelible.

But the problem remains: I lack decisiveness and am always hesitant when it comes to big things.

He was easily led astray by others, and as he grew older, his inner impulse gradually faded, making him indecisive, and Konoha gradually weakened in his hands.

Both of them have advantages and disadvantages, they are the same.

But during this period, you have to admit that they are the best.

And now that Danzo has taken the first step, I wonder what Sarutobi Hiruzen will decide.

As Xingye Feng thought so, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Time passed slowly without anyone noticing, and in the blink of an eye it was time to close the store.

Everyone walked out of the store, with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Hoshino Kaede walking at the end.

Xingye Feng looked at the people in front of him who were laughing and talking happily, and said with emotion: "In life, if you have a few close friends, isn't it a blessing?"

After hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been troubled by his lowered head, raised his head and looked forward, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Yes, it is my luck to meet them."

After saying that, his face was tangled for a while, and then he looked at Xingye Feng and sighed: "Danzo, he is very obsessed with Hokage."

"Aren't you the same?" Xingye Feng said with a smile.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then he whispered to himself: "Yeah, so am I?"

"In that case, let's compete fairly." Xingye Feng said. "Are you backing down?"

"How could that be! I have been determined to become Hokage since I was a child!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said with great determination. When he talked about Hokage, it seemed as if a fire was burning in his heart.

"Then... don't hesitate." After saying that, Xingye Feng followed the people in front and joined their conversation.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it carefully, then his expression was relieved and turned into determination and confidence.

"Danzo, the position of Hokage will definitely be mine!"
