Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Every brick and tile has clearly visible edges, but they are all made of white clouds. Even the Daming Mansion in the royal city cannot compare to the exquisite Cloud Palace.

Just then, Qingyun and Liufeng flew by with four little cranes. They were immediately attracted by the cloud palace, circling and dancing around it before finally plunging inside.

Everyone was awestruck by the palace’s grandeur and magnificence, suspended high in the sky and standing atop the white clouds.

Is this wondrous scene, resembling a celestial palace, actually the work of the Hokage?

"Everyone, this is my ninjutsu, Cloud Palace. It hangs above Konoha Village, covering the entire village. No one who enters the village can escape its senses. As long as an enemy sneaks into Konoha, it will instantly detect and locate them."

"This can protect the safety of Konoha Village to the greatest extent possible."

These words surprised not only the villagers, but also Hashirama and Tobirama. The most important thing for the Hokage has always been the safety of Konoha Village, so both Hashirama and Tobirama have to devote a lot of manpower to patrolling and guarding.

If what Qu Feng said is true, then the Cloud Palace is incredibly powerful.

The villagers naturally didn't think like the Hokage; they just thought it was incredibly powerful, and they believed in the art of wind manipulation, so they wouldn't just make empty promises.

After explaining the situation at Yunshang Palace, the enthronement ceremony officially came to an end.

Qu Feng announced the official end of the succession ceremony, then bid farewell to the villagers and turned to leave.

However, the villagers, immersed in this joyful atmosphere, found it difficult to calm down, and holding back their words made them feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Just then, the barbecue restaurant owner stepped forward and, using his status in the Konoha Village business community, rallied all the restaurants in the village for a celebration among the villagers.

Some restaurants offer everything for free, while others offer a 30% or 50% discount. The barbecue restaurant owner's decision to offer everything for free naturally earned him widespread praise.

However, shops offering 30% or 50% discounts were still packed. After all, even though it's a shopping festival, we have to consider the actual value of the food. It's already quite good that small restaurants are willing to offer discounts.

People like the barbecue restaurant owner, who have branches all over the capital, are naturally wealthy and wouldn't care about such things.

Moreover, now that Toru has become Hokage, he can quickly earn back this money thanks to his fame, so it's a win-win situation no matter how you look at it.

The phrase "the serfs have been liberated and are now singing" perfectly describes him. He rose from an ordinary member of the Akimichi clan to a powerful figure with considerable influence in Konoha Village, thanks to his reputation for capturing the wind.

Now he carries a lot of weight within the clan, after all, he's wealthy and powerful.

After Qu Feng turned to leave, he found that his master, mistress, and Zhili were all waiting for him, with smiles on their faces.

"Master, Mistress, how was it? Not bad, right?"

Hashirama gave him a thumbs up: "Not bad, kid. I knew you were smart."

"But is this Cloud Palace really as miraculous as you say?"

Qu Feng smiled and nodded: "Of course, Master. Do you still remember that cloud and mist formation?"

Hashirama nodded upon hearing this: "Of course, you discovered Uchiha Madara using this technique."

“That’s right, you can think of it as an upgraded version of the Cloud Mist Array, it’s absolutely reliable.”

The system has never disappointed Qu Feng with anything it produces, and many of its products have helped him in times of crisis.

Therefore, Qu Feng still has a lot of faith in this thing. After testing it for a few days, if there are no problems, he plans to replace some of the ninjas on guard duty with others.

Hashirama patted Torifusa on the shoulder: "Very good, with this Cloud Palace, Konoha is as solid as an iron barrel!"

With the safety issue resolved, Hashirama has nothing to worry about.

Just find the enemy and kill them; it's very simple.

Mito stepped forward and tidied Tokifumi's hair: "Come to my house at noon, and your wife will cook you something delicious."

"Great, I've been craving something sweet."

Mito then said, "Then I'll go back and prepare. You can go home after you're done talking."

"Yes, take care, Master's wife."

Zhili also said, "Master's wife, please cook more, I'll go too!"

Mito pinched Jiri's cheek: "You little glutton, when have I ever let you down? Just wait to eat."

Zhili stuck out his tongue: "Hehe, Master's wife is still the best."

Mito smiled after hearing this, then turned and left.

"Alright, everyone, stop standing here and go back to the office."

After Tobirama finished speaking, he opened the door and went into the building. The others followed him in.

Upon arriving at the office, Qu Feng instinctively wanted to knock on the door, but found that he seemed to be the one who now belonged there, and it was someone else who needed to knock before entering.

"Hurry up and go upstairs and sit down. You're Hokage now."

Tobirama urged.

Upon hearing this, Qu Feng walked behind the desk, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

"How is it? How does it feel?"

"Hmm... not as comfortable as my rocking chair, and it's a bit hard."

Tobirama was somewhat incredulous upon hearing this: "This is already the latest model chair, specially made, and the leather used is top-quality cowhide. It's not even as good as your rocking chair? What kind of aristocratic life have you been enjoying all this time!"

Qu Feng was a little embarrassed for a moment: "Ha...ha, well, actually it's not bad, not very hard."

Seeing that Tobirama was smiling so reluctantly, Tobirama sighed and said, "Oh well, I'll go find someone to make a softer one."

At this moment, Torifu waved his hands repeatedly: "Farewell, Lord Tobirama, it's not worth spending the money. I'll ride it anyway."

"What do you mean by this? If you don't sit, who will?"

Oh no, I accidentally blurted out the truth. Tobirama squinted and approached step by step.

Qu Feng could only make up a lie, saying, "What I mean is, I'll just sit in the rocking chair, so as not to waste money."

Although he managed to smooth things over, Tobirama immediately retorted: "No, as Hokage, you must set an example. What kind of behavior is it to sit in a rocking chair and sway back and forth like that!"

Anyway, Tobirama would say one thing and then refute it, and the two of them went back and forth like this for a long time. In the end, Tobirama spent a lot of money to have a new chair made.

Qu Feng smiled with satisfaction.

"Alright, Tobirama, stop trying to control young people with your old ideas. You're not the Hokage anymore."

Hashirama's words stunned Tobirama, who then realized he was no longer the Hokage.

"Oh, I completely forgot about that. Well, since you've said so, do as you please, but don't be too presumptuous. Set a good example for the ninjas!"

Qu Feng nodded: "I know, I know, please stop nagging. Let's go back and eat, we're a little hungry."

"Oh, I completely forgot about that. Well, since you've said so, do as you please, but don't be too presumptuous. Set a good example for the ninjas!"

Qu Feng nodded: "I know, I know, please stop nagging. Let's go back and eat, we're a little hungry."

"Okay, okay, let's talk about it when we get home."

And so, Hashirama, Tobirama, Toriyo, and the two children left the Hokage Building and returned to the Senju clan's territory.

A large crowd of clansmen gathered in front of the clan's territory to congratulate Qu Feng. They had spent a long time with Qu Feng and were very familiar with him.

Today, when Toru becomes Hokage, they are naturally very happy and excited.

Knowing that Lady Mito was already cooking, they didn't disturb her further. After each person offered their blessing, they dispersed.

Qu Feng thanked them one by one before entering the courtyard.

"Master! Congratulations on becoming Hokage!"

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Rope Tree pounced on him, almost knocking Toki over.

Fortunately, Qu Feng reacted quickly, dodging to the side and grabbing the rope tree that was about to fall.

"You brat, are you trying to assassinate the Hokage?"

Hashirama looked at his grandson with a disappointed expression. He was so old, yet he still loved to be naughty.

At this age, Toru had already destroyed the Hidden Cloud Village.

However, Hashirama only muttered these thoughts to himself and never belittled his grandson.

After hearing this, Rope Tree stuck out his tongue: "Grandpa, it's not as exaggerated as you say. I'm just being funny."

Qu Feng smiled upon hearing this: "You little rascal, I haven't checked your cultivation these past few days. Have you been slacking off?"

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree immediately stood up straight: "Of course not, I practice seriously with my sister every day."

"I can attest to that; Rope Tree really does work quite hard."

Tsunade walked out of the house with a slight smile on her face. She had just been cheering wildly in the audience, which had attracted the attention of many people.

The carefully cultivated image of a well-bred young lady that she had always maintained collapsed today. Feeling somewhat embarrassed after realizing what had happened, she hurriedly ran back to her clan's territory.

Since Tsunade had testified, Torifu believed Nawaki's words: "The foundation of Wood Release still lies in the amount of chakra. Later, your grandfather will teach you Sage Mode, so that your Wood Release can become stronger."

Nawaki pouted arrogantly: "My chakra is at the Chunin level now, which should be considered pretty good, right? Besides, our Wood Release is already very strong, maybe even stronger than Grandpa's... Ouch, that hurts!"

Before Rope Tree could finish speaking, Wind's hand chops landed on his head.

This caused Rope Tree to immediately squat down, clutching his head and repeatedly saying, "It hurts so much!"

He looked up and met Toki's serious expression: "Didn't I tell you not to be arrogant? It's good to have Chunin-level chakra, but you actually said your Wood Release is stronger than your grandfather's? Who gave you the courage?"

"Don't really think your grandfather is just an old man who spends all his time at home taking walks and playing with birds."

Seeing that Toru was really angry, Nawaki immediately stood up and apologized: "Master, I was wrong, I won't do it again next time."

There are always people more capable than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. No matter what, you must guard against arrogance and impatience, or you will be in trouble sooner or later.

Then he cast a healing spell on Rope Tree, and the pain on his head immediately disappeared.

Rope Tree immediately followed obediently behind Toki, his expression still somewhat frightened.

Hashirama and Tobirama exchanged a glance, then couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha, only the wind can subdue this kid."

"Who says it isn't?"

Originally, this was just a small matter. In the past, when he returned from the Land of Whirlpools, he might have just said a few words and that would have been the end of it. But this time, his return from the Land of Whirlpools made him truly realize the crisis again.

The enemy is hiding somewhere, and there are at least two different forces involved.

When faced with a powerful and unknown enemy, the only way to protect everything you cherish is to constantly improve yourself.
