Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

Who can surpass her and become the next Hokage?

Most importantly, Amamiya Zero has a very high reputation in Konoha.

The ninjas she had saved accounted for almost nine-tenths of the ninjas in the entire Konoha Village.

The Nine-Tailed Fox Rebellion and the Battle of Kindai River made her hold a very high status in the hearts of the villagers.

Chapter 221 The Hidden Cloud Ninja Arrives!!!

"Ningji, from now on you must behave well in front of Amamiya Zero and try to get her to accept you as her apprentice."

"..."

"It would be even better if Miss Hinata could become Amamiya Zero's apprentice."

"..."

As Neji walked back to the branch family's land, holding his father's hand, the words of the elders kept replaying in his mind.

"Father."

Neji looked up at his taciturn father, his face full of questions: "Who is Amamiya Zero? Why did the elders say that?"

Hinata Hizashi lowered his head slightly, looking at his slightly naive son, his face full of bitterness.

"Amamiya Rei is the next Hokage of Konoha."

Hizashi explained to Neji.

"The next Hokage?"

Neji's eyes widened slightly.

He knew that Hokage-sama was the most powerful ninja in the village.

Then Amamiya Zero will also be the most powerful ninja in the village.

No wonder the elders didn't blame him.

"Ningji, if you meet her in the future, do as the elders said and work hard to become her apprentice."

Hinata Hizashi's big hand touched Neji's head.

Perhaps this is Neji's only chance to change his fate.

Neji pursed his lips: "I will!"

Hizashi smiled with relief, and his perennial frown relaxed.

……

Ten days later.

early morning.

The sky was pale blue, and strands of red clouds were interwoven between the mountain ridges.

The sun was still sleeping in the valley.

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen started smoking early in the morning.

Amamiya Rei stood beside him, replacing Sarutobi Hiruzen's pipe with his lunch box.

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened the lunch box and saw that it was full of meat again!

Sarutobi Hiruzen said helplessly to Amamiya Zero: "Zero! I can't eat so much!"

He is old, how can he digest so much?

He knew Zero meant well, but this was too much.

Amemiya Zero doesn't care whether he can digest it or not, as long as he can gain weight after eating it.

"Hokage-sama, we are hosting ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village today, so we need to eat more!"

“Eating is much healthier than smoking!”

I can even smoke a cigarette, so what’s wrong with eating some meat?

He didn't want to eat Sarutobi Hiruzen and end up with only a mouthful of bones.

Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't think about himself, he should think about Amamiya Rei!

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and began to eat his breakfast.

Amamiya Rei stood by the window, watching the Anbu ninjas setting up a barrier in the village.

This was arranged by Amamiya Zero to prevent the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village from escaping easily.

The main streets of Konoha were hung with colorful silks, which were interwoven on the electric poles high in the sky. Looking up from below, the sky seemed to be sewn together.

Today is not only the day to welcome the envoys from the Hidden Cloud Village, but also a celebration for Konoha to declare the complete arrival of peace and the end of war.

Therefore, the villagers of Konoha got up early and walked through the streets in high spirits.

The Akimichi clan is a giant in the catering industry of the Land of Fire, and today they are particularly generous in providing free drinks to the villagers.

The Akimichi tribe members pushed a toast barrel that could be hugged by ten people to the center of Konoha Square and let the villagers use it for free.

the other side.

Ayaki Rui walked among the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village. They passed the Valley of the End, and the outline of Konoha appeared in their eyes.

Randou, who was walking beside Ayaki Rui, reminded him: "When we enter Konoha later, be careful not to get separated from us."

Ayakagi nodded: "Yeah, I understand."

Randou nodded with confidence. Ayaki Rui's performance along the way was indeed that of a qualified ninja.

Although he is young, he is trustworthy.

Even though they were going to sign a peace treaty, Ranto was still no less wary of Konoha.

Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to collapse. He waved his hand towards Amamiya Zero and said, "Zero! I can't walk anymore! Go to the gate to greet the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village for me!"

Amamiya Zero: “…”

"People from the Hidden Cloud Village are coming!"

The ninja of the Inuzuka clan jumped to the window and reported to Amamiya Rei and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen urged, "Zero, get down quickly!"

Amamiya Rei nodded and left the Hokage's office.

At the entrance of Konoha.

Ayaki Rei and Randou stopped at the entrance of the village.

Looking at the figure that appeared in front of him, Ling Murui's pupils shrank and his steps almost froze in place.

Amamiya Zero walked towards the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village and extended his hand to them: "Welcome everyone to Konoha!"

Ranto looked at the hand extended in front of him and took the hand of the ninja in front of him.

Of course he knew the ninja in front of him.

Wood Release Ninja Amemiya Zero!

Cheers swept across the main road of Konoha Village like waves.

Amemiya Zero let go of his hand, smiled, and led the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village towards the Hokage Building.

Randou paused slightly, noticing that Ayaki Rui beside him hadn't moved.

Ranto was startled to find that Ayaki Rei was staring at Amamiya Rei intently.

Seeing the look Amamiya Rei was giving him, Ranto awkwardly reminded Ayaki Rei: "Tired? Let's go!"

Ayaki Rui seemed to come back to his senses and followed Randou's footsteps.

The Konoha villagers on both sides of the road were waving colorful flags, and streamers and fireworks were flying everywhere in the air.

Amamiya Zero led the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village up the stairs of the Hokage Building and said to them, "Hokage-sama is waiting for you in his office."

The door of the Hokage's office opened, revealing Sarutobi Hiruzen sitting on a chair wearing the Hokage's hat.

Entering the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen extended his hand towards Ranto, who was in the lead.

Ranto took Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand and called out, "Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and smiled: "Welcome!"

After sitting down, Sarutobi Hiruzen casually exchanged a few words and took out the peace agreement.

After all, the main mission of the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas coming to Konoha is to sign a peace agreement.

The sooner a peace treaty is signed, the better.

When Ranto, who was sitting opposite Sarutobi Hiruzen, saw the peace agreement on the table, his eyes changed.

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could speak, Ranto stood up first, rubbed his shoulders, and said with fatigue on his face, "We are a little tired after this journey. Why don't we wait until tomorrow to sign the peace agreement?"

Chapter 222 Should I Know You?

As soon as Ranto said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes suddenly became a little subtle.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Ranto in front of him without saying a word.

An eerie silence fell over the Hokage's office.

Randou suddenly explained, "Hokage-sama, the main reason is that we have been traveling day and night, and we are worried that we might misread the contents of the peace treaty. Since this is a major treaty concerning the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha, I think it would be better for both of us to wait until tomorrow to rest up and sober up before signing it."

Since Ranto has said so, Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot force Ranto to sign now.

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed the scroll and smiled: "In that case, then Zero, you can take the Kumogakure messengers down to rest!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Amamiya Rei.

Amamiya Zero nodded: "Yes."

He walked in front of Lan Dou and extended his hand towards him: "Please."

Ranto stood up and his eyes passed over Amamiya Zero's face.

Amamiya Rei took Ranto to the hotel he had prepared in advance.

Passing through a vermilion torii gate, Amamiya Zero led them up the stairs. Qingfeng Hotel is the best hotel in Konoha, but it is some distance away from the center of Konoha.

Lan Dou looked around. The hotel in front of him was nestled against the mountain and beside the water. Wind chimes hung on the eaves of the wooden door, swaying gently and making crisp sounds.

Amemiya Zero pushed open the door and they walked into the courtyard. The clerk in kimono, who was kneeling on the karafuk wood floor, bowed to them.

Amamiya Rei looked at Ranto, his smile unchanged, and explained, "This is the best hotel in Konoha. I specially booked it to welcome you. I hope you can have a good rest."

Ranto nodded and thanked Amamiya Rei: "Thank you for your trouble."

Amamiya Zero shook his head: "You're welcome. After all, you are honored guests of Konoha."

"You guys have a good rest, I'll take my leave now."

Amamiya Zero nodded to Ranto, then turned and walked out of the yard.

Staring at his back, a figure suddenly flashed in Lan Dou's peripheral vision.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Ayaki Rui!

Randou's eyelids twitched, and he reached out his hand to pull Ayaki Rui back, but he was still a step too late.

He watched helplessly as Ayaki Rui ran in front of Amamiya Rei and blocked Amamiya Rei's way.

Randou swallowed, fearing that Ayaki Rui would say something out of line.

Amamiya Rei looked at the child blocking the door, then turned to look at Randou with a puzzled look in his eyes: "What is this for?"

Randou laughed dryly twice.

How would he know what Ayaki Rei was trying to do?
