Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Why do they start to disobey after just one trip out?

"Big brother! You're back! Did you win?"

Qu Feng nodded: "Of course we won... You guys didn't think the three of us were dead, did you? And you're planning to take revenge?"

Surprisingly, the large group of ninjas all looked around awkwardly and then started scratching their heads.

Pretending to be very busy, but actually not knowing what you're busy with.

"Ah...haha, big brother, we were just worried about you guys. It's been two hours since the explosion, and you still haven't come back."

After listening to the wind, he couldn't get angry at all. After all, they were worried about his safety. However, he didn't see Zhili among the group, so he probably thought that he couldn't possibly lose.

"Alright, alright, we're all very moved. I've successfully defeated the masterminds Yan and Hanzo. The ninja world is at peace again, the city ban has been lifted, and you can move around freely."

The Kazekage and Tsuchikage nodded; they completely understood their ninja's actions.

There will naturally be no punishment.

At the behest of Toru, Onoki, and the Kazekage, a large group of ninjas turned back before even leaving the city gate by more than fifty meters.

But each of them had a smile on their face.

News of the victory spread throughout the city center in an instant, and the streets and alleys were filled with laughter and joy as everyone talked about it.

"I heard that during that final explosion, the Hokage used a space-time ninjutsu to escape the blast radius! And that Flame Demon Yan didn't even leave a last word before being swallowed up. That's how the war ended."

"Tch, what do you mean you heard? Isn't this what the official announcement says? The three Kage fought Yan, and after a long battle, they finally defeated him using a combined ninjutsu."

"That's right, it was written by the Hokage himself."

The ninjas will definitely discuss the details of the battle at length. To prevent rumors from spreading, we will release the official process directly to avoid anyone making things up.

Furthermore, in order to preserve the image of the Earth Shadow and the Wind Shadow, Tokifumi included them as well, changing the battle between the Earth Shadow and the Wind Shadow to a three-way battle.

This was of no consequence to Touko, so adding two more names was no big deal and would only make the two Tsuchikage more grateful to him.

He had already returned to his apartment, where Zhili was sitting on the sofa watching TV.

As soon as Qu Feng entered the room, she got up and came over, giving him a warm hug.

"Welcome home. You must have had a tough fight."

Qu Feng smiled and shook his head: "It's alright. Yan is very strong, but I'm stronger."

Looking at the mud on Toru's body, Zhili felt a pang of sympathy. After checking him over and finding no injuries, she was relieved.

"I knew it. With so many tricks up your sleeve, nothing would happen to you. Jiraiya and the others even asked me to go find you too, but I said there was no need, hahaha."

In this world today, the person who understands the wind best is probably Zhili. The two have been together for more than 20 years.

If we can't say we're completely in sync, we're certainly on the same wavelength.

The whole city was in an uproar, saying that the Shadows had been defeated, but Chiri didn't panic at all.

She knew that Feng would definitely return.

"As expected, Chiri understands me best." Toru gently kissed Chiri: "Have you had lunch? If not, we'll go to the banquet later."

Zhili nodded: "Okay, I wasn't in the mood to eat when you weren't back. Now that I'm in a better mood, I'm actually starting to feel a little hungry."

"That's good. The war is over, and we should prepare to go home. I bet little Haoyuan is crying for his mother."

Chiri chuckled softly, "No, I just called. Everything's fine."

"Let's not talk about these useless things anymore. Let me help you change into some clean clothes. Take this one to wash."

Qu Feng nodded. After all, he was going to a banquet later, and it wouldn't be appropriate to attend in such a dirty state. He didn't want to be stopped by security and humiliated.

Qu Feng remembered reading similar plots in novels in his previous life. To avoid a real misunderstanding, it's best to keep things clean.

Chapter 737 Celebration Banquet

"That's good. The war is over, and we should prepare to go home. I bet little Haoyuan is crying for his mother."

Chiri chuckled softly, "No, I just called. Everything's fine."

"Let's not talk about these useless things anymore. Let me help you change into some clean clothes. Take this one to wash."

Qu Feng nodded. After all, he was going to a banquet later, and it wouldn't be appropriate to attend in such a dirty state. He didn't want to be stopped by security and humiliated.

Qu Feng remembered reading similar plots in novels in his previous life. To avoid a real misunderstanding, it's best to keep things clean.

After changing into clean clothes, Qu Feng started making phone calls.

There weren't many people, just two Kage, Jiraiya, and other Kage-level ninjas like Rōshi and Ebizō.

After all, they contributed a lot to this victory, so they will definitely get a share of the celebration banquet.

But besides these people, there are many other ninjas who have made silent contributions. There are simply too many of them to invite to a banquet for them all.

Therefore, Qu Feng plans to double all the mission rewards they received this time, as a way of thanking them for standing up for the country when its territory was threatened.

"Let's hold the banquet at the biggest hotel in the city center," Qu Feng suggested.

Zhili didn't have any objections; it was just a matter of everyone getting together for a meal, and they didn't care where they went.

However, to make it more formal, we had to dine at a hotel.

However, the central city is not very well developed yet, because there are not many people here, so there are no particularly luxurious restaurants.

That's the only place I can find to eat.

When asked about it, the Kazekage and Tsuchikage both felt it was nothing, since it was just a meal and it didn't matter where they ate.

"In that case, let's set off."

When they arrived at the main street, they saw smiles on the faces of the people in the streets and alleys. Although their time in the city center was not particularly long.

But every minute and every second here is very meaningful, after all, they are standing up to protect the country.

Now that they have won, these low-level ninjas who have worked silently and diligently to wipe out the camp are naturally very happy.

The victory in the war was inseparable from them.

Qu Feng greeted them warmly, just like he did with everyone.

Everyone here is a hero.

Surrounded by the crowd, Toru Kaze and Chiri entered the hotel. After waving goodbye to everyone, they turned around and went to find their reserved private room.

"Hokage and Hokage's wife, you've finally arrived. You must have been delayed by everyone's enthusiasm, right?" Onoki said with a smile.

Qu Feng looked up at the clock on the wall and, sure enough, it was ten minutes past the agreed time.

He scratched his head sheepishly, "Yeah, everyone's been so enthusiastic. I can't just ignore them. After all, they've made the biggest contribution in this war. We're just a trump card to use against the strongest enemy."

Everyone present nodded in agreement with what the Hokage said. Indeed, as the Hokage had said, the lower-ranking ninjas were the ones who had made the greatest contributions to this war.

If they hadn't spread out to wipe out the entire Rain Country's camps, it would have taken much longer to rely solely on those few Kage-level ninjas.

Takefusa and Jiri took their seats, then filled their glasses with wine: "Let's toast the first drink of our victory celebration to these ninjas who cleared the way for us."

After saying that, Qu Feng poured the wine on the ground.

The same applies to everyone else.

Only after the toasts were finished could the celebration banquet truly begin.

The dishes were served one by one, and each person only needed to take one bite before it was all gone.

So what followed was a continuous stream of dishes being served and quickly devoured.

Among them, the three Shadows ate the fastest, after all, they had experienced such an intense battle and their physical strength was greatly depleted, which everyone could understand.

Everyone enjoyed their meal in the private room, and the laughter never stopped.

But the chefs in the kitchen were sweating profusely.

All the chefs at the hotel, regardless of whether they had holidays or not, are now back at work!

The ladle was already smoking from being swung so hard; as soon as one dish was finished, the next one had to be cooked immediately.

This restaurant brings together flavors from three countries, so the chefs making sushi and sashimi are always busy.

The knife in his hand moved swiftly, cutting back and forth across the fish.

Even a slight pause would prompt the waiter to hurry up.

They could guarantee that this was the most tiring day of their half-life as chefs.

But the chefs all knew who the diners were and what they had been through.

So no one complained; everyone was doing their best to make their best dishes.

Because the shadows saved their lives!

However, no matter how hungry the Shadows were, their stomachs were not bottomless pits. After eating for nearly an hour and a half, the three Shadows finally put down their chopsticks.

The others around them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good heavens, these three gentlemen have quite the appetites! They've been eating non-stop for over an hour!"

Of the three, Qu Feng ate the most; the dishes were almost instantly devoured when they reached him.

Every time the Tsuchikage and Kazekage had just taken a bite and turned back, their plates were already empty.

That's why they were able to eat for so long.

But Qu Feng is truly a big eater.

"Haha, please excuse my poor performance. I just needed to replenish my energy after the battle."

The Tsuchikage and Kazekage also laughed and said, "This battle mainly relied on the Hokage. It was the Hokage who fought against Yan. We two didn't help much, which is really shameful."

Upon hearing this, the Kage-level ninjas from various villages were astonished. Did this mean that the Tsuchikage and Kazekage had been slacking off the whole time?

The Hokage won the battle by himself? How is that possible! Last time he fought Yan, it took the combined strength of all the Kage from three villages to defeat her. How could the Hokage's strength have grown so rapidly in just a few years?

Torifu was clearly surprised that the Tsuchikage and Kazekage would actually bring it up themselves.

To ensure that the Tsuchikage and Kazekage's image in the eyes of the ninjas wouldn't collapse, after returning from taking the wind, he specifically emphasized that it was the three of them who defeated them together.

Unexpectedly, they have now revealed the truth, which makes Qu Feng quite impressed.

"Nothing to be surprised about, that's just how it is," the two figures said calmly, showing no intention of hiding anything.
