Seeing that Torifu was lying on the rocking chair, Minato quickly washed up and then came to Torifu's side.

He also moved a deck chair and lay down leisurely.

"Brother, don't you get tired getting up so early every day?"

Qu Feng took a sip of tea: "If you get up early every day, you'll definitely feel sleepy. But if you get up early every day, it will become a habit and you won't feel sleepy anymore."

Minato nodded after hearing this. It seemed that he still needed to work harder to overcome his difficulty in getting up in the morning!

"Kids don't need to get up early every day. They can sleep until they naturally wake up. Otherwise, they'll be sleepy in class every day."

Minato asked doubtfully, "I heard from my second brother that you made him get up early when he was a child, saying that only by maintaining self-discipline could he become a strong person."

After listening to the wind, he wasn't quite sure either: "Really? Or maybe not?"

"Yes, he just told me yesterday."

Qu Feng waved his hand dismissively: "Then it must be that I lied to him."

The reason was that the system would wake him up very early every morning when he was collecting wind.

Seeing Amado still sleeping soundly, he felt a little uneasy, which is why he casually mentioned this rule.

I never expected that Amado would still remember this.

"Anyway, you don't need to force yourself to get up early tomorrow. Just sleep until you naturally wake up."

Minato was naturally pleased to hear this. He had thought that waking up early was a strict rule in his family, which was why he set his alarm clock very early every day to wake himself up.

Since my brother says he doesn't need it, that's wonderful.

"hungry?"

"A bit..."

"Just bear with it. That's what a ninja is all about—enduring hunger that ordinary people can't bear."

One of the downsides of waking up early is that there's no food to eat, and you just have to wait until mealtime.

About half an hour later, the hot tea that had been brought out had turned into cold tea.

He downed the tea in one gulp, then left the house with Minato.

The opening time of the morning market is already in Qu Feng's mind; he knows when to set off without even looking at his watch.

The two strolled around the morning market, bought a lot of delicious food, and brought it back to their tribe's territory, hoping to see if Amado would get up and eat with them.

However, even after the two finished eating, Amado was nowhere to be seen. He probably slept in the lab again last night.

Amado is really elusive these days; you'd be hard-pressed to bump into him unless you specifically went looking for him.

I'm a little worried about his love life if things continue like this.

About an hour after finishing breakfast, Minato went out to go to school.

Before leaving, he waved to Qu Feng, who smiled.

Taking Minato as a disciple is like raising a child, but it's not a bad feeling.

Clean up the leftovers; they should be here soon.

It doesn't look right if this place is messy.

Chapter 255 Getting ready to leave

Clean up the leftovers; they should be here soon.

It doesn't look right if this place is messy.

Just as Toru was about to take the trash out the door to throw it away, he spotted Hiruzen walking towards him.

With the guests already here, it wasn't appropriate for Qu Feng to leave any longer, so he used Ice Release to freeze all the trash.

He then slapped his palm, causing the clouds to disperse and disappear.

"Brother Hiruzen, it's been a while since we last met."

Hiruzen smiled and said, "That's right. We haven't seen each other since we bumped into each other on the street last time."

Qu Feng patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, come in quickly. I didn't expect we'd be fighting side by side again."

Speaking of this, Hiruzen was also somewhat puzzled: "Do you think it's necessary to mobilize so many elite Jonin for a prince's rebellion? And you, as the soon-to-be Third Hokage, are also going?"

Toruka shrugged: "There's nothing I can do. Rank matters. I'm not Hokage yet, just a lackey under the Hokage."

Just as Hiruzen was about to laugh, a clear male voice came from outside the door: "If Lord Tobirama heard you say that, he would definitely be angry again."

When Kaze and Hikizane turned around, they saw that it was Kagami and Jiri who had arrived.

Qu Feng looked indifferent: "He gets angry every day, and it's never the same thing. I guess it won't make a difference if I do it this time."

The group burst into laughter upon hearing this; in the entire Hidden Leaf Village, only Torifu dared to be so audacious.

No one else can be so carefree.

"Please sit in the courtyard first, in the largest pavilion."

Zhili gave Qufeng an OK sign: "Don't worry, I know the way, I'll lead them there."

After hearing this, Jing joked, "Oh my, as expected of the future mistress, she's got the looks for it."

Zhili's face flushed red instantly, and he punched Jing: "What are you saying!"

Jing laughed after wincing in pain: "Alright, alright, what's there to be shy about? It's bound to happen sooner or later anyway."

The three of them then went inside.

Kagami and his group rarely came to the Kaze family's territory. When they did have gatherings, they usually went to the Sarutobi clan's land, since Hiruzen really enjoyed organizing these kinds of things.

"We could hear laughter from a great distance. What did we miss?"

Koharu's voice came, and Yan and Danzo also came together.

First, he congratulated Tokifumi on his upcoming appointment as the Third Hokage; these were heartfelt congratulations.

Even Danzo wouldn't have the desire to compete with Torifu for the Hokage position, because the gap between them was simply too great.

Danzo felt much more at ease knowing that his best friend Hiruzen hadn't become Hokage.

Therefore, he did not become as obsessive as he did in the original world.

There's an old saying that goes, "Your friends want you to be happy, but they don't want you to be happier than them."

That's the truth.

If Hiruzen were to become Hokage, Danzo, as his brother who grew up and studied under the same master, would naturally feel resentful.

But if it's about gathering wind, there aren't so many problems.

After all, although they had a good relationship, it was not as good as the family-based friendship with Hiruzen.

"He didn't say anything, he just told a joke to lighten the mood. Come on in, let's go over there too."

Koharu nodded upon hearing this, and Danzo and En also said "okay" in response.

Akimichi Tokifu was not on this mission because he had already left the village to carry out other missions and had not yet returned.

So I won't be able to make it for this mission.

Now that we've met in the pavilion, although we're all good friends, we all have families now and hold different positions, so it's been a while since we last saw each other.

"Everyone, Lord Tobirama should have already told you about the mission, right?"

Several people nodded.

"Even though I know the situation, it's no different from not knowing it at all. I have absolutely no idea how to proceed."

Qu Feng waved his hand: "Don't worry, we've carried out so many missions over the years, how could this possibly stump us?"

That being said, previous missions all had very clear objectives: who to protect, who to kill, or who to rescue.

However, the mission was far too vague. The nine princes requested help from Konoha in batches, but one prince had already been killed during this time.

The killer is still unknown.

Qu Feng then added, "The princes' letters are asking Konoha to lend them troops to quell the rebellion, so let's lend them those troops."

Danzo frowned after hearing this: "What do you mean by 'taking the wind'?"

"There are seven of us in total. I will take care of the eldest and second princes, and you can each take charge of one of the rest."

"Surveillance?"

Qu Feng nodded: "You could say that, because we know so little information, this allows us to quickly eliminate some princes who are stirring up trouble."

"Our ultimate goals are several. First, to find the real rebellious prince; second, to find the murderer who killed the Eighth Prince; and third, to find the missing Uzumaki Ashina. This is what Lord Mito requested."

Then, Torifu recounted the information he had received at Hashirama's house the previous night to his companions.

"Regarding what Kushina said about Uzumaki Ashina meeting the eldest and second princes before disappearing, I feel there might be some connection between the two of them, so I'm in charge of them."

After hearing this, the group all agreed. In this operation, they were subordinates of Qu Feng and had to follow his orders.

"Suddenly, I feel a bit excited."

Qu Feng laughed and said, "I've had this feeling for a long time, it's like a riddle."

Hiruzen stretched and said, "It's been a long time since I've felt this ready to make a big splash. Since becoming the clan leader, I feel like my thinking has become outdated."

The others all agreed after hearing this, including Hiruzen, Kagami, and Danzo, who were already clan leaders.

With every day spent thinking about the development of the family, it's natural to find it hard to have the same drive as when I was young.

However, although Qu Feng was also the clan leader, he never had any concerns in this regard.

After all, including birds and beasts, there were only a dozen or so lives in the family.

They then discussed some details about landing on the island and monitoring the princes.

Although they viewed this as surveillance, they still had to openly help the prince resolve some issues, since they were Konoha's reinforcements.

They can only take it one step at a time; they've never carried out a mission like this before.

But this sense of the unknown excited them all.

"We're setting off early tomorrow morning, and we won't arrive in the Land of Whirlpools until the next day at the earliest, so we must get a good rest today."
