Naruto: The world has misled me a lot!

"Master Yuan, Ming has been walking on thin ice these days. Please give me more guidance."

With the approval of the Fourth Mizukage, Mei Terumi went to the master's residence openly to pay a visit and performed a great ceremony as soon as she arrived.

This elder who witnessed the creation of Kirigakure has always maintained a neutral attitude in dealing with the struggles among the various forces within Kirigakure. However, he is sincere and has noble character, so he is trusted by the successive leaders of Kirigakure and has always been the core of the Kirigakure Elders Group.

"You are still too impatient. In fact, the Third Mizukage has already paved the way for you. As long as you restrain your edge and be patient, what is yours will be yours sooner or later."

The Master's beard and eyebrows were all white, but his gaze in his deep eye sockets was as clear as water.

When the Third Mizukage was alive, he had a good relationship with the Karuizawa clan. Although Yagura was guarded against, he was not excluded like Mangetsu Kizuna.

When Yagura comes to power, his first goal will definitely be to eliminate political enemies, including the Kizuna clan, the Kaguya clan and other families that do not obey his orders, as well as the small hills surrounding the ninja swordsmen.

Mei Terumi should be won over.

However, the Third Mizukage did not expect that Hirame Aoi would be loyal to Mei Terumi and bring a group of Kirigakure jonin who were unwilling to be lonely and wanted to gain more post-war benefits.

This naturally touched the sensitive nerves of the Fourth Hokage. She wondered whether the Third Mizukage, as his disciple, was dissatisfied with him taking the position of Mizukage and still coveted her teacher's position.

This puts Mei Terumi in an awkward situation where she is caught between a rock and a hard place.

"Hirame is a conscientious worker who has never overstepped the boundaries. I just can't make the decision to abandon him."

Mei Terumi knew that Master Yuanshi was hinting that she could go back to the path arranged by her teacher, but this was not in line with her inner beliefs.

If she is treacherous, then what is the difference between her and the annoying blood mist ninja.

There was a slight fluctuation in Master Yuan's clear eyes.

At least this girl still has some morality in her heart. Unlike those rotten wood whose minds are only focused on power and killing, she can still be carved.

"Then we can only fight for it."

If you cannot keep a low profile, you can only seek victory in danger. Hesitation is the way to death.

“How to fight for it?”

"The first is your personal strength, the second is your popularity, and the third is Yagura's weakness."

The conversation started, and Mei Terumi listened attentively, and the master spoke more clearly.

"If you peel off the cloak of power in the ninja world, you will find that the so-called power is based on personal strength. If you want to be the leader of a faction, you must have enough strength to suppress your subordinates and fight against powerful enemies. This is also the reason why Yagura did not hesitate to become a Jinchūriki. Although he has the strength to surpass the Mist Ninja, he is far from enough to face the Kage of the Fire, Lightning, and Earth Kingdoms.

The same goes for you to fight Yagura. If you don't find a way, when he controls the power of the Three-Tails, the power left by the Sandaime will be destroyed."

Mei Terumi finally figured out what had been making her anxious these days.

She was busy running around, welcoming and seeing off guests, but still couldn't fall asleep. It wasn't because she didn't work hard enough, but that the direction of her efforts was wrong from the beginning.

But personal strength cannot be achieved overnight; it requires years of practice, which is also a difficult task for Mei Terumi at this moment.

"You really can't become stronger in a short period of time, but you can borrow the power of others."

Even without Mei Terumi telling him, Master Yuan knew what she was thinking.

borrow?

Mei Terumi is not a stupid person. Following this line of thought and thinking about her own conditions, she understood it.

"You want me to marry Yugao?"

"Yes, Yagura is a Jinchūriki, and so is Yugao. Moreover, in all the major ninja villages in the ninja world, the relationship between Jinchūriki and Kage is very close. When you combine with Yugao, his power will be transferred to you, and you will have the power to fight against Yagura.

This is a shortcut! ”

Mei Terumi didn't know how she left the Yuanshi residence.

In the misty weather, wisps of rain were floating, bringing a hint of coolness to her charming cheeks.

She did not directly respond to Master Yuan's advice. There are always times when relying on others is unreliable, so she still wanted to rely on herself.

However, she didn't have much time to think about it.

Konoha.

When Minato Namikaze inherited the position of Hokage, the two core departments of Konoha, Education and Diplomacy, fell into the hands of Kato Makoto and became the institutions under his charge.

Education is to cooperate with the Root to cultivate the Anbu system, and diplomacy is to adapt to Konoha's strategic adjustments.

Yuhi Shinku, who was originally in charge of education, was a direct descendant of the Third Hokage, so Kato Makoto did not touch him. As for diplomacy, Kato Makoto transferred Yamanaka Ken to take charge of the work.

The latter had never expected that from a small captain of the analysis class, he would rise to the position of minister in one step, and his power would be greater than that of the head of his own family.

Fortunately, he was not carried away by joy. As soon as he received the transfer order, he rushed to Kato Makoto's office with gifts to show his absolute loyalty.

The place he went to was not the Root, but an office building next to the Hokage Building, which was slightly shorter than the Hokage Building.

Due to the change of position, Kato Makoto's identity has changed and he is no longer suitable to work at the root.

With a stroke of his pen, Minato Namikaze built a new office next to the Hokage Building for his child's godfather.

"Suzaku, why are you here?"

Ken Yamanaka was taken to an independent office by the front desk secretary. Sitting inside was not Makoto Kato, but Suzaku Nara.

The latter was hunched over his desk, writing furiously. The piles of documents were taller than his upper body while he was sitting.

"Didn't you see the sign on the door?"

Nara Suzaku heard a familiar voice, looked up and saw who it was, then rolled his eyes.

Only then did Yamanaka Ken notice the words "Secretary-General's Office" written on the door.

Originally, Kato Makoto wanted to transfer Nara Suzaku to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but before he could issue a document, he discovered something was wrong.

In the past, the huge pile of work at the Root Department was enough to bother him, and when combined with the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there was not enough space on his desk to accommodate all the documents waiting for review.

This is too much! If we continue like this, there will be no progress.

His age is the golden period for improving his abilities, so how could he waste his time on approving documents and handling government affairs?

Therefore, the appointment was immediately changed, a secretariat was set up, and Nara Suzaku was urgently transferred to serve as secretary-general to help handle affairs.

Personnel and financial matters must be reported, and other trivial matters will be handled by the secretariat first and then submitted after writing down opinions.

The heavy workload was lightened and all I had to do every day was sign the opinions written by the secretariat.

"Master Cheng is not here?"

Yamanaka Ken put down the gift and sat in the office. He felt a little awkward facing Nara Suzaku. After all, in terms of position, the other party was half a level higher than him.

"There's something going on over there, the adults are going to deal with it, you can put your things in the cabinet."

Nara Suzaku pointed to the solid wood cabinet next to him that was painted dark red, and then started looking at the documents again.

There has been not a single night without overtime in the past few days. He has made up his mind that he must hire more people no matter what, as the few people under him are too busy every day.

"This is handmade tea that I asked someone to bring over from the Land of Tea. Don't drink it secretly."

Yamanaka Ken was a little worried, Nara Suzaku covered his forehead, a little speechless,

"Open the cabinet and take a look yourself."

Yamanaka Ken was just talking. He walked over, opened the cabinet door, and was about to put the gift box in when he was hit in the face by the jewels and precious things inside.

“What is this?”

"Just like you, the gift from the visitor is a worthless souvenir. It shouldn't be as good as what you gave, right?"

Nara Suzaku teased.
