Naruto: The world has misled me a lot!

When Kato Makoto led the senior ninjas across the sea and entered the territory of the Land of Fire, they soon met people who came to pick them up.

Leading the group was one of his absolute confidants, Ken Yamanaka, and there were also several ninjas wearing animal masks, who were subordinates of their teacher Danzo.

Ever since the teacher retired, these people also disappeared with him. Now that they have reappeared in the mission, it can only mean that the situation in Konoha is very bad, so bad that retired ninjas have been recalled to the organization.

"Sir, has the trip gone smoothly..."

Yamanaka Ken fell half a body length behind Kato Makoto and then quickly shuttled through the woods.

"Stop flattering me and tell me about Konoha's situation."

Makoto Kato interrupted Yamanaka Ken's long-winded opening remarks. This guy used to be quite materialistic, and after becoming the minister, his flattery skills became even more advanced.

Yamanaka Ken laughed awkwardly twice. He said this because he saw that many of the senior ninjas who returned with Kato Makoto were injured.

And when you meet a leader, it’s never a bad idea to show your concern.

However, when it comes to official business, one must not be careless, so Yamanaka Ken immediately calmed down and spoke in a low and solemn voice:

"Sir, the Fourth Hokage has died in battle!"

boom!

The tree trunk under Kato Makoto's feet was instantly shattered by the sudden burst of force. After the silver-haired young man reacted, he waved his hand and used invisible gravity to gather the debris flying towards the Konoha ninja behind him and threw it far away.

Not only him, but all the jonin who heard the news looked at Yamanaka Ken with disbelief.

If this person was not in charge of a department of Konoha, and was considered a high-ranking Konoha official, and was not a confidant of Lord Makoto, it would be impossible for him to deceive Lord Makoto. They would all think that Yamanaka Ken was talking nonsense.

How could the Fourth Hokage, the fastest man in the ninja world, the golden flash of Konoha, and the one who possesses the ability to instantly travel through space, die?

Is there any ninja in this world who can threaten his life?

"It was the Uchiha clan member you met in the Land of Rain. He released the Nine-Tails and attacked the Yondaime with a long-range space-time pupil technique, forcing the Hokage to seal the Nine-Tails with his life despite being injured."

Yamanaka Ken sensed the suspicious looks coming from all around him, and after explaining, he continued,

"Danzo-sama, the Third-sama led Konoha's elite to block the first wave of the Nine-Tails' attack. They suffered heavy losses, and more than a dozen jonin were killed, including... the True Red jonin."

Yamanaka Ken glanced at the girl on the other side of Kato Makoto, hesitated for a moment, and then said it.

After all, Yuhi Shinku is one of the directors of the three departments under Kato Makoto, so she needs to let her leader know in advance and make arrangements early.

"Father……"

Having witnessed the horrors of war, Xi Ri Hong, who was already in a bad mood, the moment she heard that her father had passed away, her mind went blank, her eyes turned black, and she fell straight down from the tree trunk.

Fortunately, Mao Yue Xi Yan was always by her side. She quickly caught her and carried her on her back.

Although there is an age gap between the two, they have known each other since they were in the Ninja School. Now one is Kato Makoto's disciple and the other is his secretary, and they are usually very close.

"It's really red, what a pity."

Kato Makoto sighed. He was very satisfied with this subordinate. He was capable enough, fair, and managed the Ministry of Education in an orderly manner.

He is a rare talent who can handle critical moments and understand the greater good.

"Who is the current Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

After a moment of silence, Kato Makoto asked another key question: who has Konoha's ultimate weapon now?

"Uzumaki Naruto, the orphan of the Fourth Hokage, is now being raised by Lady Momoka in the Senju clan territory, and Lady Tsunade is looking after him."

"Didn't he seal the Kyuubi back inside Kushina? It looks like she went with Minato."

The unsealing of the tailed beasts means almost certain death.

Treat the tailed beast as a chakra supply organ, connected to one's own chakra meridians. When the body has adapted, violently removing this organ is the same as tearing out the heart.

"Uzumaki Kushina is still alive, but still in a coma. Before I come, Lady Tsunade asked you to go to the Senju clan land as soon as possible."

Yamanaka Ken was also very curious about how the Jinchuriki survived after being unsealed. This was a first in the ninja world.

He subconsciously attributed most of the credit to Tsunade. After all, Princess Tsunade was the number one expert in the ninja world, and only she could create this miracle.

Kato Makoto was a little surprised. Based on his understanding of Tsunade's medical ninjutsu, he should not be able to save Kuyukina.

However, before he could think about it carefully, the next piece of information mentioned by Yamanaka Ken diverted his attention.

"Danzo-sama asked me to report to you that the Sandaime-sama temporarily took back the position of Hokage and wrote a letter to recall Jiraiya immediately. The person who delivered the letter was the Anbu chief Sarutobi Shinnosuke."

"Ok?"

After hearing his words, Kato Makoto's thoughts turned and he smiled meaningfully.

"It seems that the Sandaime is still strong and ambitious to support Konoha. He wants to appoint the Fifth Daime."

No one who heard Kato Makoto's words dared to say a word. Those who could reach the level of a jonin were not stupid.

This involves the transfer of power in Konoha, and is also a struggle between several bigwigs.

However, Yamanaka Ken, Shisui and Yugao looked at Kato Makoto with particularly eager eyes.

Kato Makoto was one of the two pillars of Konoha together with Namikaze Minato. He had made countless military achievements for Konoha and had just repelled the invasion of Kirigakure.

Whether in terms of strength, status, reputation, achievements or age, he is an impeccable successor.

"Turn the tide before it falls, and support the building before it collapses!"

Kato Makoto shouted loudly,

"With tigers and wolves lurking outside and our homeland in ruins, Konoha needs a powerful Hokage to reorganize Konoha and deter the villains. This person can only be me!"

These words revealed his attitude clearly and also raised the banner and pointed out the direction for his faction.

The men under your command can now charge towards their target.

"I will follow you to the death!"

Yamanaka Ken responded loudly immediately.

"I am willing to die for my lord!"

"I would like to..."

The jonins following behind Kato Makoto followed Yamanaka Ken and made their attitude clear.

After following Kato Makoto through battle after battle and seeing him grow stronger, especially his god-like performance in the Whirlpool Country War, they surrendered to Kato Makoto from the bottom of their hearts.

"Jian, you go back to the village first and inform the major families and the Jonin in the village, and have them greet us at the entrance of the village."

If given a choice, the major families of Konoha would not allow the Dark Shinobi lineage to take power.

But now Konoha's business has become very big, and the major families are making a lot of money.

Given the way the Third Hokage and Jiraiya handled things, if they were forced by the Iwagakure and Kumogakure, they might just give up the benefits they had obtained.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Even if there is only a one percent chance, these people will never agree.

"Yes, please wait and see!"

Yamanaka Ken's face was full of joy and his eyes were shining.

He and Nara Suzaku finally reached this day, and the achievement of following the dragon was right in front of them.
