Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Tsunade asked, puzzled.

Qu Feng smiled slightly: "You can't judge a book by its cover. In our world, the villages are closely connected because during my time in office, I built a symbiotic system through a network of relationships and trade chains."

“As long as a village is within this framework, it will develop very rapidly because it is led by Konoha Village. This will make them content with the status quo and unwilling to escape it, thus ensuring continued peace and stability.”

“Once someone attacks the architecture, cracks will appear in the architecture, and it will slowly collapse. This is very detrimental to those within the architecture. In order to maintain the status quo, they must protect the architecture from attacks.”

With this explanation, Tsunade understood a lot, including the factory in the back mountain, the continuous flow of exported goods, and the aquaculture plan of the Land of Rain—all of which were part of the framework.

These things benefited them immensely, far exceeding the value of any benefit that war could bring, and the extent of their benefit depended entirely on their own efforts.

The harder you work, the more you earn. Naturally, these villages stop fighting and instead focus on maintaining the stability of their structure, not wanting it to collapse.

Because once the structure collapses, their good life will immediately begin to dissipate, and they will have to return to that bloody era, an era where everything depends on human lives.

Tsunade did a lot of things by taking the wind directly, but she didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns involved. She is completely unsuitable to be Hokage because she doesn't have that much thought in her mind.

They just do whatever comes to mind.

"Brother Hiruzen, is there anything else you'd like me to convey to Tsunade Senju?"

Tsunade patiently inquired, explaining that she was also on a mission this time, not only because she wanted to go herself, but also for the sake of the relationship between Konoha Village and Tsunade's situation.

These tasks alone were already giving Tsunade a headache.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, Duan and I will head back now. After all, we still need to pack our clothes and such."

Qu Feng was speechless for a moment. It wasn't like he was going on a vacation. He would be back in a few days. Was it really necessary to bring so many bags?

However, Tokifusa didn't care, as long as she was happy: "Okay, then you guys go back first, I'll chat with Hiruzen Hokage for a while longer."

After Tsunade and her husband left, only Torifu and Hiruzen Sarutobi remained in the courtyard.

"So, did you get that feeling?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "Of course, I'm filled with emotion. It's been so many years since I've seen Dan, and I didn't expect him to still be so young and outstanding."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's praise was correct; Dan could be considered one of the best ninjas of their generation.

"He's now the head of the secret service. He can manage all the big and small things in the village, and he manages them very well, which saves me a lot of trouble."

"Now that Minato has taken office, he is doing his best to help Minato adapt to the position of Hokage. He is very responsible and dedicated."

Speaking of these things, Hiruzen Sarutobi was reminded of the broken world in his own universe.

He could have really become Hokage, but he died young. Hiruzen couldn't believe it at the time.

At the same time, his death also took Tsunade with him, causing Konoha to lose two powerful combat forces at once.

"Sigh, if that child were still alive, I wonder how outstanding he would be now. Maybe he would already be married to Tsunade. The two of them were so in love back then."

Tsunade nodded silently. Her fate was truly tragic. Her beloved died when she was young, and in her middle age, her closest friend, who had been with her for almost her entire life, also died.

The world seemed to have never treated her kindly, but she persevered, stepping forward when Konoha was in the most danger, and nearly losing her life many times, all to protect Konoha.

Also, to protect their beloved dream.

Dan's greatest dream was to become Hokage, but he died young. Tsunade, on the other hand, inherited his will and became the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, protecting the village for many years.

Qu Feng shook his head: "They are both unfortunate people. Fortunately, in this world, they love each other and can live a happy and fulfilling life together."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled upon hearing this: "Yes, I really have to thank Hokage Torikaze for making me witness this scene. The knot in my heart has finally been untied a bit."

"Only a little?" Qu Feng joked.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "This alone is enough to make me happy for a while. If I were to list all my worries, there would be too many."

Chapter 812 Finding the Wind to Cook

However, Tsunade ultimately inherited his will and became the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, protecting the village for many years.

Qu Feng shook his head: "They are both unfortunate people. Fortunately, in this world, they love each other and can live a happy and fulfilling life together."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled upon hearing this: "Yes, I really have to thank Hokage Torikaze for making me witness this scene. The knot in my heart has finally been untied a bit."

"Only a little?" Qu Feng joked.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "This alone is enough to make me happy for a while. If I were to list all my worries, there would be too many."

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not possess the immense strength of Toriyama; among the five Kage of the ninja world, he could only be considered above average.

Hiruzen Sarutobi found it extremely difficult to resist Onoki's abnormal Dust Release.

The Third Raikage's invincible spear and shield made it difficult for Hiruzen Sarutobi to defend against.

As for the Wind Shadow and the Water Shadow, they each have their own techniques, and neither of them can be easily defeated.

That's why he's been working so hard. If he had the power to seize the wind, he wouldn't have to worry about anything.

His entire life will be happy and fulfilling, without any setbacks.

The departure of his master and the alienation of his disciples dealt a heavy blow to Hiruzen Sarutobi at different ages.

Regardless, Konoha Village has managed to hold on, and now that they have discovered Konoha Village in another world, both sides are very friendly, so it is very likely that they will receive help from them.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's mood naturally improved a lot.

As for the rest, let's leave those old stories sealed in our hearts for now.

"Alright, I'll show off my cooking skills at noon today, consider it a belated treat."

Qu Feng smiled slightly. He understood Hiruzen Sarutobi very well. It was no wonder that one person could hold up the crumbling Konoha.

In addition, there was Danzo, who was always watching him and wanted to seize power, as well as two troublemakers.

If it weren't for the fact that these three could lead troops into battle when war came, Toru would really think that these three were stumbling blocks for Konoha.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was clearly surprised that the Hokage Torikaze would personally cook for him: "I never expected to taste the Hokage Torikaze's cooking, so I won't be polite."

After spending the last few days together, the two have become more familiar with each other and can now exchange jokes.

Qu Feng felt that things were now relatively stable on his side, and the Konoha in the other world had also ended the war.

They have plenty of time to develop before the next Shinobi World War arrives.

Qu Feng can only help them to a certain extent. After all, the system only allows Qu Feng and his team to intervene when a chaotic event is announced. Otherwise, they are not allowed to interfere too much.

Kequfeng believes this is the butterfly effect; once one thing changes, the future has already changed.

For example, if the wind-taking technique had saved Minato and Naruto, giving Naruto a complete childhood, then the subsequent events of the Uchiha clan would have been different.

After all, Minato and Fugaku Uchiha were very good working partners, and Fugaku trusted Minato to cooperate with him.

With Minato around, the risk of a Uchiha clan rebellion would be reduced, and even if they did plot a rebellion, it would never lead to the extermination of the clan.

"I wouldn't call it any special skill, just everyday cooking. Actually, I cook quite often, but Zhili sometimes helps with her work, so whoever is free at home cooks."

In the few days since Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived at the Cloud Clan's territory, he has clearly felt the warmth of a large family.

Even though they have different surnames, they are closer to each other than real relatives.

Moreover, everyone has great respect for the Hokage, but not to the point of being too rigid; it's just the right kind of relationship.

This kind of relationship would be very comfortable, and Hiruzen Sarutobi had always longed for this kind of life.

Unfortunately, his friends have become somewhat distant, and his two children are in a difficult situation: one is getting married and preparing to move out, while the other is going through a rebellious phase.

The once happy family is now reduced to just the elderly couple, and his wife has nearly died.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt increasingly miserable about his life, so he simply smiled and shook his head.

A few hours later, around 11:30 a.m., everyone gradually returned.

Haoyuan and Zhili also returned from the Uchiha clan's territory, and the clan's territory became lively again.

"Brother Hiruzen, where did Torifu go?" Jiri asked with a smile. Weren't they supposed to have a chat with Tsunade today? Why is he nowhere to be seen?

Hiruzen Sarutobi pointed to the kitchen: "The Hokage is cooking. He said he's going to show off his skills to me."

Upon hearing this, Zhili nodded, not particularly surprised: "The wind-transferring technique is quite good, Brother Hiruzen can rest assured."

Yahiko ran over too: "I can testify! Master's cooking is indeed delicious!"

"Me too!" Xiao Nan joined in the fun.

Immediately, everyone started laughing and joking, and the courtyard was filled with laughter.

Even the cook in the kitchen couldn't help but come out and ask, "What's going on here? What are you laughing at so happily?"

Zhili waved his hand: "It's nothing, go make your meal, we're all starving."

"OK, almost done."

Others may not know, but Shuimen and Anhua were really hungry. They had handled a lot of official business all morning and had no time to rest. They only had time to eat lunch at noon.

After a short rest after dinner, it's time to go back to work.

Even with such intense work, Minato did not give up on doing everything himself.

Toru is now speculating, wondering when Minato will give up and choose to use puppets or clones to replace him in his work.

However, sometimes Qu Feng feels that he is the odd one out.

When Master founded Konoha Village, he naturally worked at a high intensity every day. Even after Konoha Village had stabilized, he continued to work tirelessly.

Similarly, Tobirama was also a workaholic, spending almost every day in the office. Even in the early days of Torifu becoming Hokage, he would check whether Torifu had fulfilled his duties.

And now, Minato is doing the same thing. Could it be that out of the four Hokage in Konoha, only Torifu likes to slack off?

Did they inherit some fine tradition?

However, Qu Feng was too lazy to worry about it. He had already taught him the tools and methods, and all he had to do was use them when he felt tired.

He wanted to see when Minato would finally be completely corrupted by the "slacking off" technique and become a supporter of it.

However, judging from this situation, it will probably be difficult for a while.

He took Feng back to the kitchen, poured the last remaining dish into the pot, stir-fried it quickly for a few seconds, and then it was ready to serve.

Chapter 813 Revisiting Another World

And now, Minato is doing the same thing. Could it be that out of the four Hokage in Konoha, only Torifu likes to slack off?

Did they inherit some fine tradition?
