Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

After entering the private room, we ordered almost every type of meat on the menu. Since it was free, we could eat as much as we wanted.

Minato, on the other hand, became less reserved and pointed to the dishes he wanted to eat on the menu.

Before long, all the meat was served. Toru was in charge of grilling, while Minato helped pour the meat out.

"Big brother, is this mission dangerous?"

Qu Feng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "It's just some princes arguing, it'll be over easily, just a little complicated and roundabout, but there's no danger."

Minato seemed relieved after hearing this: "I see, that makes sense. With Big Brother's strength, what danger could he possibly encounter?"

"You understand me really well, kid."

Minato scratched his head and chuckled.

What Qu Feng didn't know was that after he finished his spiritual communication, the exhausted Qingyun and Liufeng returned to the clan's territory, which was seen by Shuimen.

Having already exhausted the spiritual beasts, how could he possibly be at ease? However, since he didn't want to talk about it, Minato didn't press the matter further.

He knew that Qu Feng didn't want him to worry, because at his age, there was nothing he could do but worry.

Minato's current thought is to grow up quickly and improve his strength, so that he can help his older brother when he grows up.

Chapter 295 As long as the mindset doesn't falter.

He knew that Qu Feng didn't want him to worry, because at his age, there was nothing he could do but worry.

Minato's current thought is to grow up quickly and improve his strength, so that he can help his older brother when he grows up.

After dinner, Toru didn't take Minato home directly, but instead headed towards the Senju clan's territory.

Having just returned to the village, I naturally had to meet with my master, just for a brief chat.

"Have you kept up with your studies during this time?"

Minato shook his head: "I study very hard every day and haven't fallen behind on any knowledge. Don't worry, big brother."

Upon hearing this, Toru smiled. He knew that Minato was a sensible person, and he didn't need to worry about these things at all.

"How are things going with Kushina? She's in your class, right?"

Minato thought for a moment, then scratched his head: "It's alright. We don't usually have many opportunities to talk, but sometimes when I go to my master's house, she will talk to me about my studies."

For children this age, having a basic friendship is already quite good. Yet, some people are so heartless as to try to pair up six-year-olds.

Just get along slowly.

Upon arriving at the Senju clan's territory, after exchanging a few words with the guards, Toru led Minato inside.

In the courtyard, Tsunade and Nawaki were teaching Kushina ninjutsu.

Rope Tree was the first to spot the wind-catching technique and immediately ran forward: "Master, Junior Brothers, what brings you here?"

Qu Feng tapped Sheng Shu on the head with annoyance: "You brat, your master has been away on a mission for so long, and I haven't seen you miss me even a little bit."

Nawaki covered his head and muttered, "What's there to miss? Aren't all ninjas like that..."

Toru glanced at him, ignored him, and turned to Tsunade: "How are things? Getting along with Dan?"

Tsunade smiled upon hearing this: "Not bad, we're friends for now."

Qu Feng nodded, saying, "Take it slow, you can't rush things."

Kushina, who was originally very introverted and reserved, seemed to relax considerably because her grandfather had come.

He even greeted Torifu and Minato with a smile.

"Alright, Minato, you can go play outside with your Tsunade sister. I'm going inside first."

They then walked inside. It was past mealtime, and Hashirama and the others were sitting in the living room chatting.

Upon seeing that Qu Feng had arrived, he immediately pulled him over to sit down.

"Toru, I heard from Ashina-nii that your mission this time is very dangerous, is that true?"

Upon hearing this, Torifu glanced at Ashina and then nodded, saying, "It was indeed quite dangerous, but thankfully I returned safely in the end. It's all thanks to Lord Tobirama for sending Hiruzen and Jiri with me; otherwise, I might not have made it back."

When Hashirama heard Ashina say that, he thought Ashina was exaggerating to highlight Tokiwa's contribution. But hearing Tokiwa say those words made Hashirama frown.

As the master, I am well aware of my disciple's strength. He almost didn't make it back even after fetching the wind, so this mission has indeed exceeded my expectations.

"Do you know the power behind that person?"

Qu Feng shook his head: "I don't know, but their target is me."

"you?"

Everyone present spoke up in unison. They had thought that the person's goal was the sealing technique of the Land of Whirlpools, but they didn't expect it to be to obtain the wind.

"Yes, he mentioned many times that he wanted to capture me and offer me to the 'adult' as a vessel for reincarnation."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama sighed, "It seems the ninja world is about to be in turmoil again. We've only had ten years of peace, and now there's going to be another upheaval?"

Qu Feng waved his hand: "I don't think we need to worry too much. They failed outside this time, which allowed me to successfully return to the village. With Master and so many strong people from Konoha Village here, they absolutely cannot attack Konoha."

"Therefore, we will definitely lie low again and wait for the right opportunity."

Hashirama agreed, saying, "Toru is right. At least for the next year, they won't have much of a chance."

He then said to Tobirama, "Send out intelligence ninjas to investigate this mysterious organization. The death of such a strong ninja must have crippled them, and they'll probably make some moves."

Tobirama nodded, indicating that he understood.

He then told Hashirama and the others about Uchiha Setsuna's appearance. At first, they didn't react much, thinking he was just a defector Uchiha.

But when Toruka revealed that he had already killed Uchiha Setsuna when they were children, they became unsettled.

"A ninja who died many years ago can be resurrected, and even become stronger. Is this really possible?"

Even if it were Tobirama's Impure World Reincarnation, it wouldn't make the person being 'revived' stronger, and according to Torifu's judgment, that person could not possibly be an Impure World Reincarnation.

At this moment, Hashirama was in a real bind. Why was it so difficult to just want peace?

Although he has now retired and is enjoying his retirement, he cannot ignore the affairs of Konoha Village and still cares about the entire village.

"We currently have too little intelligence to assess the enemy's overall strength. Let's see if we can obtain some information about them first."

The group nodded; that was the only way.

After discussing some heavy topics for too long, the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive. At this moment, Mito, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

"Qu Feng, you'll be taking the throne in a few days, right? The Red Maiden says the cloak is finished and will be delivered to your home after a few more adjustments."

When Hashirama spoke of Toru's succession as Hokage, his eyes were filled with pride. The little boy who once stood in the Hokage's office and took his father's will has now grown up to this point and is about to become the Hokage who leads Konoha!

Time flies! So many years have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Yes, Master's wife, I'm about to ascend the throne, but I'm a little nervous that you brought it up so suddenly."

Hashirama patted him on the shoulder: "I was just like you back then, always having all sorts of worries in my heart, which is normal."

Tobirama laughed and said, "Back then, I also suddenly became the Second Hokage. Now you'll have to taste that feeling too."

Toruka smiled on the surface, but inside he was cursing. If he could, he really wouldn't want to be the Hokage.

Isn't a leisurely life at home wonderful?

But how could Qu Feng reveal his true thoughts in front of these elders?

Anyway, he didn't plan to do the work himself. There were so many treasures in the system store, there was bound to be one that would satisfy him. If all else failed, he would use his shadow clone to do the work.

As long as your thinking does not slip, there are always more methods than difficulties.

Then he talked with Hashirama and Tobirama for a long time to confirm the actual date of their succession.

Take the wind and bring Minato home.

Chapter 296 Cloud Palace

As long as your thinking does not slip, there are always more methods than difficulties.

Then he talked with Hashirama and Tobirama for a long time to confirm the actual date of their succession.

Take the wind and bring Minato home.

Not long after leaving the Thousand Hands Clan's territory, the system's electronic voice sounded in my mind.

[Ding - Congratulations, host, for completing an S-rank mission. Rewards: 1 Calm Points, a Cloud Palace, and a Wisdom Puppet.]

Oh dear, I almost forgot about this task. Fortunately, the system won't deduct rewards. Calm Points are an old thing; they're given for every task.

But I can understand this intelligent puppet; it's probably something I prepared for myself to slack off. This system is quite thoughtful.

But what exactly is this Cloud Palace?

Qu Feng suppressed his curiosity and decided to check out this so-called Cloud Palace after he got home.

"What did you do outside just now?"

Minato was very happy at this moment, with a smile on his face: "Hehe, Tsunade-neechan just taught us ninjutsu, and I learned it very quickly, so I'm happy."

Upon hearing this, Toru Kaze gave a thumbs up: "Not bad, Minato is indeed very powerful. I'll give you the little crane to form a contract with today."

Upon hearing this, Minato jumped up with joy: "Big brother is so great!"

Qu Feng smiled slightly, and led Qu Feng to quicken their pace. Then they exchanged four spirit seeds in the system.

Originally, I planned to let the little cranes grow a bit bigger before they evolved, but I got delayed by the mission and forgot about it.

They can probably fly now, after all, they have the bloodline of cranes.

Qingyun Liufeng grew up very quickly back then.

But when the two arrived at Qingyun and Liufeng's lair, Qufeng realized that he had been overthinking things.

The little crane has only grown some feather shafts yet; its feathers haven't fully grown in.

Perhaps Qingyun Liufeng grew so fast because it had evolved.

Takefusa instructed Minato to wait outside while he went inside.

When Qingyun and Liufeng saw Qufeng arrive, they asked, "Qufeng, are you here to give that thing to the children?"

Qu Feng nodded: "I gave you this seed before you were born, which can better enhance your potential."
