Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 21 Three Questions and Three Answers
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Sarutobi Hiruzen personally sat in front of Haruno Sakura to supervise her graduation exam.

The clone technique, transformation technique, and substitute technique were all completed perfectly in one go.

When Haruno Sakura took the forehead protector handed to her by Sarutobi Hiruzen himself, there was not much of a smile on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.

Instead, he looked at Haruno Sakura with a serious face and said:
"Sakura, come with me."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Haruno Sakura was calm, having already expected this scene.

She had no choice, she had already graduated but still couldn't get the Yin Seal.

During this year, Sarutobi Hiruzen gave her extraordinary strength and the ability to teleport instantly.

As for the so-called Yin Seal, there was not even a shadow of it.

Obviously, in Sarutobi Hiruzen's view, it is enough for an eight-year-old child to master super strength and the technique of instant teleportation, and he can learn more slowly from then on.

that's the truth.

The extraordinary strength of an eight-year-old Genin combined with the ability to teleport instantly is already the highest level possible.

But Haruno Sakura is in a hurry, because there are only two people who can learn the Yin Seal.

One is Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the other is Tsunade.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is very close, and Tsunade is probably running around the world hiding from her creditors at this moment.

Where can I find Haruno Sakura?

"How an eight-year-old Genin could acquire the S-rank secret technique Yin Seal within a year under normal circumstances"

It's impossible to think about it. In this situation, Haruno Sakura can only take risky moves and win by surprise.

Obviously, Sarutobi Hiruzen's current actions prove Haruno Sakura's thoughts.

I just don’t know whether it’s good or bad.

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked with Haruno Sakura step by step, and he had no intention of speaking for a long time, which made Haruno Sakura's somewhat calm heart start to feel uneasy.

Until they arrived at the highest point of Konoha, above the Hokage Rock.

The wind from high in the sky blew the hem of Sarutobi Hiruzen's clothes and the ends of Haruno Sakura's hair.

"Sakura..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice sounded somewhat helpless.

It can be seen from today's ambitious "Haruno Sakura's Will of Fire" that this seemingly well-behaved pink little girl is not as cute as her appearance.

"I'm here, Grandpa Hokage."

Haruno Sakura looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and spoke with some hesitation.

"Can you tell me what a Hokage is?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly sat down on the ground, looking with his cloudy eyes at the village in front of him that he had protected all his life.

He originally thought that his life would just pass by like this, and that he would train a pillar for Konoha in the final period of time, and then he could retire with honor.

But today, a graduation answer sheet from Haruno Sakura made his normally law-abiding heart a little restless.

Once upon a time, he was also known as a ninja hero.

As time passed, Ninja Hero had long been a thing of the past, and the meaningless title of Ninjutsu Doctor was given to him.

This also means that the heroic ninja who roamed the battlefield has disappeared from everyone's sight.

A ninjutsu doctor who has been in the village for decades was born...

"Hokage..."

Haruno Sakura followed Sarutobi Hiruzen's example and sat next to him. She looked at the scene in front of her that she had only seen in anime and slowly spoke:
"The Hokage is the father of the family."

"The teacher in the class."

"The street director."

"The village chief."

"Head of state."

"But I prefer to be described as the father of the family."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed, and he spoke:

"I remember Sakura's goal was to become the first female Hokage. Why would she use the word father to describe her instead of mother?"

The pink hair fluttered gently. Haruno Sakura looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and spoke:
"Because compared to mothers, fathers are more rational and can make more effective judgments at times, even if this choice will hurt the interests of the family at present."

"But from a long-term perspective, from an overall perspective."

“This decision is undoubtedly the more correct one.”

Haruno Sakura's words made Sarutobi Hiruzen silent. He couldn't help but think of the time when he made Hinata compromise.

Back then, the Hidden Cloud Village planned to use the peace treaty as a pretext to attack the Byakugan, but was caught red-handed by Hyuga Hiashi, and finally used Hyuga Hizashi's body to exchange for peace.

This matter was secretly criticized by the senior officials in the village.

But...what can he do?
That was the end of the Third World War, and almost all of Konoha's capable ninjas were killed.

The Fourth Hokage had just died, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was only three years old, the Uchiha had been criticized for the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Danzo was eyeing them covetously, and Kakashi and other ninjas were still too young.

If Kakashi's generation were to be wiped out, Konoha would really have no future.

"So this is what Sakura understands as Hokage."

"You're right. The Hokage is really helpless in many things."

"The Hokage who seems so high and mighty actually has many unspeakable secrets..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but touch Sakura's soft pink hair.

He liked this child very much, but it was precisely because he liked him so much that he made this special trip.

"Any more?"

"Sakura's understanding of Naruto?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the little girl in front of him kindly and continued to speak.

Haruno Sakura blinked, and her brows relaxed a little.

There is a play.

"You don't have to become a Hokage to gain everyone's approval."

"But you can become Hokage only after gaining everyone's approval."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes lit up when he heard this.

“Then the question is, how to gain everyone’s approval?”

"Is it enough to just talk about it?"

"Obviously that's impossible."

Haruno Sakura stood up, facing the mountain breeze on the cliff, with a hint of excitement in her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a bad feeling.

"In this world, everyone speaks the same language, writes the same characters, and uses the same currency."

"Hokage-sama, don't you think there are too many countries in this world?"

!!!

Sure enough, this girl is not one to keep to herself.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Haruno Sakura in a daze, feeling complicated and not knowing what to say.

Sakura asked, "If you can make everyone in Konoha live a good life and everyone in the Land of Fire have enough food to eat."

"Can such a person be called Hokage?"

The third generation replied: "Yes."

Sakura continued to ask, "If peace could come to Konoha for the first time, ending the suffering of war."

"Can such a person be called Hokage?"

The third generation answered again: "Yes."

Sakura then asked, "What if everyone could travel around the world without worrying about their lives? Mountains, rivers, seas, ice and snow, deserts, they could travel freely."

"Can such a person be called Hokage?"

Sandai then answered: "Yes."

"Grandpa Hokage, I want to be Hokage."

"The Hokage who made all of this happen."

"My article "The Will of Fire" is the starting point and beginning of everything."

Haruno Sakura turned her head and looked at the village below her feet, her tone light yet heavy.
