Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

The ninjas were bewildered by the order. Why were all the guards suddenly given a day off? Who would guard the gate then?

Despite their confusion, no one disobeyed the Hokage's orders. If they were told to rest, they should just rest properly, since the Hokage's Cloud Palace was there to protect them.

Sometimes, the Hokage would have already solved the problem before they even arrived.

This made the ninjas on guard duty seem very useless, and many of them even considered changing jobs or going back to running missions.

Qu Feng only thought that those mysterious people could even break a hole in the sand wall, so if they really attacked Konoha, these guards would probably be killed instantly.

Being the Hokage means taking into account all aspects; these aren't just numbers, but living, breathing people.

They dared not gamble with their bodies that the enemy could not break through Konoha's defenses.

After doing all this, Qu Feng returned home, leaving the office affairs to the puppet.

Just as I stepped into the courtyard intending to rest for a while, I discovered that Zhili had arrived at some point.

"Qu Feng, you look a little tired. Did something happen?"

Zhili walked over to Qufeng and led him to sit down in the pavilion.

After taking a sip of tea, Tofu recounted everything that had just happened to Chiri.

Chiri only felt that he was a little tired from taking care of official business, but he did not expect that the Third Kazekage would come to visit Konoha Village.

"Sunagakure was attacked by a mysterious group of about ten people. The Kazekage is worried about being attacked again, so he came to us."

"And they even shared information about those mysterious people with us for free, which can be considered an alliance. I think it's pretty good."

Upon hearing this, Chiri nodded in agreement: "Our experience with the Land of Whirlpools last time was due to our lack of understanding of the enemy, which led to our passive situation. Therefore, knowing information about the enemy is extremely important."

If they had known that Yu's control over his abilities was so strong, they wouldn't have risked exposing him at the banquet.

“That’s right, that’s why I agreed to his idea. As for the export products he wants, such as trees, we can increase our output to help them through this difficult time.”

However, Qu Feng didn't intend for the Kazekage to be grateful to him; he just hoped the Kazekage wouldn't betray him in the future.

After hearing this, Zhili joked, "These are all minor problems. All we need to do is have Master go there and unleash a ninjutsu."

"It's a pity they didn't know that Rope Tree also knew Wood Release, otherwise they probably would have tied Rope Tree up there and made him plant trees day after day."

Qu Feng was both amused and exasperated after hearing this: "You really think that kid is someone to be trifled with? And daring to mess with Master's grandson, I think he's really tired of living."

The two chatted and drank tea, and gradually the wind-catching process became less tiring, their laughter echoing throughout the Cloud Clan territory.

"Hey, how's Minato's training going?"

Mentioning Minato, Torifu had some things to say: "He's been working very hard at home lately, and he's got some talent in this area. He can already generate some spatial fluctuations."

Zhili was genuinely surprised to hear this. He had thought that Minato would give up after practicing for a while, but he didn't expect that he had actually made some progress.

It seems that Minato is really suited for the Flying Thunder God Technique. Tobirama-sama's technique has found a successor, which is a very good thing.

"Then let Minato continue training. Who knows, he might really become a ninja who surpasses Tobirama-sama."

Upon hearing this, Toru simply smiled and remained silent, for he knew that Minato would undoubtedly surpass Tobirama in the future.

Seeing that Torifu did not reply, Chiri asked, "I haven't seen Minato since I arrived. Did he go on a mission?"

"Yes, he went out with Sakumo, and I don't know when he'll be back."

"I'm afraid they were taken on one of those missions."

Hearing what Chiri said, Torifu paused: "Given Sakumo's personality, it's really hard to say. We can only hope that Minato has a good mental capacity. Many ninjas cried their eyes out at this point."

Chapter 344 Killing Mission

Hearing what Chiri said, Torifu paused: "Given Sakumo's personality, it's really hard to say. We can only hope that Minato has a good mental capacity. Many ninjas cried their eyes out at this point."

Just a few days ago, they were doing tasks like catching cats and dogs, sweeping the streets, and taking out the trash. Suddenly, they're killing people.

The inexperienced ninjas had never seen such a scene before, and they would definitely be frightened if they suddenly saw the bloody scene.

Some timid children may even develop psychological trauma, making it impossible for them to continue their ninja journey.

According to Qu Feng, times have changed, and it's normal for children to be a little spoiled now that society has progressed.

This shows that Konoha Village is not putting too much pressure on these children now, which is actually a good thing.

This will give them enough time to grow.

After chatting with Tori for a while, Jiri got up to go home.

"Aren't you going to stay a little longer? I was planning to make you dinner."

Zhili rubbed her rumbling stomach: "I really want to eat, but no one's home today, and someone needs to pick Aika up from school."

Since that's the reason, it's not appropriate for Qu Feng to insist on keeping her. He got up and saw Zhi Li to the door.

He gently kissed her on the head: "Remember to take care of yourself these days, so that if those mysterious people come to Konoha, we won't be caught off guard."

"Okay, you too, don't play games for too long."

Qu Feng nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll be going. Call me if you need anything."

Watching Zhili's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Qufeng smiled, then turned around and went back into the courtyard, went inside, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

The next morning, Qu Feng woke up from his sleep because he had gone to bed early the night before.

I felt very energetic this morning and didn't feel tired or weak as usual.

After getting up and washing up, I left home, intending to take a stroll around the Naruto Building.

Although he usually handles official business as a puppet, Qu Feng would go to the office every now and then to sit for a while.

Coincidentally, just as I sat down in my office chair, ready to strike a pose, I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and the person who entered was white-haired, none other than Hatake Sakumo, who was leading a squad on a mission.

"Lord Hokage, Team 3 has completed their mission to wipe out the mountain bandits and has come to deliver the report."

Take the task sheet handed to him by Sakumo, glanced at it briefly, and then stamped it with his seal.

"How did these three little ones do?"

Upon hearing this, Sakumo glanced at the three children behind him and gave a wry smile: "They're alright, but they're all a bit pretentious. Only Minato is somewhat satisfactory to me."

After hearing this, Minato scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. The other two friends looked at him with genuine admiration, not jealousy.

Qu Feng felt something was strange. Shouldn't children this age be at the age where they are full of resentment and discontent?

"Tell me, what did you encounter along the way?"

The other two were still somewhat hesitant, but Minato stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the Hokage, we went to the border of the Land of Fire and wiped out a small bandit camp. There were seven bandits inside, and they have all been executed."

The report was powerful and full of vigor.

"That's good. It seems you've worked very hard to achieve this result."

During the Watergate briefing, the other two children remained in a dazed and timid state.

"Are you two sick? Why do you look so unwell?"

The two kids, who were just trying to get away with not paying attention and finish their reports, were suddenly called out by the Hokage.

He stood up straight instantly, which was both funny and absurd.

"Reporting to the Hokage, we are not sick."

"Oh?"

Just as Toki was about to say something, Minato came to the rescue of his two teammates: "Hokage-sama, they were on night watch last night, so they probably didn't get enough rest."

During this time, he kept giving Feng subtle winks.

Since that's the case, Qu Feng went along with it: "I see. Then you three should go back and rest. I'll have a chat with your teacher."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

After Qu Feng finished speaking, the two children were fully revitalized. They bowed and quickly left the office.

Looking at the empty space behind him, Sakumo shook his head: "These two kids are talented, but their temperament is too weak, and they can't withstand big storms."

Qu Feng waved his hand: "Oh dear, they're just kids. We need to give them time to grow up. It's a bit too radical to let them kill people without preparing them psychologically."

"I want them to grow up faster, after all, you were only twelve years old when you destroyed Kumogakure."

Qu Feng never imagined that one day his story would be used to educate children.

The system played a significant role in the fact that the twelve-year-old was able to destroy the Hidden Cloud Village.

These children have no system and no top-tier mentors. Do you expect them to destroy the Hidden Cloud Village at the age of twelve?

That's a bit too outrageous.

"There's no need to use me as an example. Their mental resilience is relatively poor right now, but that can be improved. With more training during this period, they will get better."

Sakumo nodded in agreement: "That's the only way. Speaking of which, Minato is really outstanding. It even feels like he didn't graduate from the same school, and he's two years younger than them."

"The comparison is really hurtful, so I've always had Minato deliberately conceal his strength."

Qu Feng rested his head on his hands and said, "Keep talking, I want to hear what this kid is really like."

And so, Sakumo spent more than ten minutes explaining to Torifu the cleverness of Minato's first assassination mission.

They acted swiftly and decisively, without the slightest hesitation or pity.

Sakumo suspected that Minato might have killed someone before, but Minato vehemently denied it, so Sakumo never brought it up again.

Sakumo didn't know, but Toki was very clear that Minato's parents were kidnapped and killed by bandits who brought them into the village.

It seems that it was hatred in his heart that made Minato so determined.

Although these bandits were not the ones who killed Minato's parents, bandits, by their very nature, have never done anything good; they have been involved in arson, murder, and looting.

Relying on their numerous strongholds, they acted with impunity.

But it also provided the first lesson for every new ninja: killing.

"Alright, Shuo Mao, you should go back first. Let the two children recover in a day or two before they go on that kind of mission. Otherwise, they won't be able to handle it and might be too much of a blow."

Sakumo nodded: "Yes, Hokage-sama, I will keep a close eye on the two children's condition during this period."
