Ninja World: I am really a support ninja

"So, it was Sakumo-sama's son who saved us all?"

"if not!"

"It's really a family of ninjas, everyone is extraordinary!"

The sound of the two people talking to each other was not loud, but not small either, which naturally attracted the inquiring eyes of many villagers.

After surviving the disaster and seeing that they were no longer in danger, the two men showed off their knowledge and carried their savior, Hatake Akira, into the sky.

More and more people joined in naturally, and the three words "Hatake Akira" were frequently mentioned in the conversation.

This scene quickly spread everywhere, whether it was the rescued villagers or the remaining ninjas in Konoha, they all praised Hatake Akira.

"With Hatake Akira still here, the Hatake clan can guarantee a bright future for the next 50 years!"

"Isn't it? I remember that my son and Hatake Akira were in the same class, but now it seems that I may have to call him Master Akira soon..."

"You can call him that now. The title of Master Ming is worthy of it, even though he is only 9 years old now!"

"I'm so envious of Master Ming's strength... He doesn't even give us a chance to show it off."

"Do you think the titles of Konoha's Twins and Konoha's Silver Flashes are for nothing?!"

"At only 9 years old, he already has two names that are resounding throughout the ninja world. The three ninjas of Konoha back then are inferior to him."

"Ming-sama, he is the future of Konoha... I really want to be his subordinate!"

"I want, too."

“Who wouldn’t want to?!”

“Everyone wants it!!!”

Huh…Huh…Huh!

Because the rescue operation was not in a combat state, the passive ability of the Holy Grail manifested by Hatake Akira could not be triggered. After the rescue operation lasted for nearly 15 minutes, Hatake Akira's chakra was severely depleted.

Moreover, the frequent use of the Flying Thunder God Technique almost made Hatake Akira, who had an extremely high tolerance for space, unable to hold on.

At this time, he was bending over with his hands on his knees, panting heavily.

"Master Ming... take a sip of water and take a rest. Leave the remaining tails to us."

At this time, a Konoha ninja who stayed behind bravely stepped forward and handed Hatake Akira a water bottle.

Hatake Akira didn't hesitate to take the bottle, unscrewed the cap, and took a big gulp.

"Thank you." Hatake Akira wiped his mouth, "Judging from your attire, you should be a jonin. I am only a chuunin now, so I am not worthy of being called 'sir'."

"Master Ming, my position is only that of a special jonin, and the title cannot fully describe your strength. Your performance today deserves our title."

"This……"

When Akira Hatake first tried to stop the Iwagakure Earthquake Core Team and rescue the villagers of Konoha, he didn't think too much about it. But when he had some free time, he suddenly realized that this incident had endless benefits for him.

As long as Hatake Akira doesn't commit any serious crimes in the future, or is deliberately slandered by others, the fact that he saved the lives of all the villagers in Konoha is enough for him to buy vegetables and eat on the street without spending any money!

These are just small superficial benefits. The real benefit is the reputation among the people, which may seem insignificant when not in use, but can turn the tide at a critical moment!

Then, as wave after wave of ninjas and villagers came to express their gratitude, Hatake Akira became the center of Konoha Village!

"No, no, no, you don't have to do this..."

"I'm not hungry now. You can keep the food for yourselves. We will have a difficult period of reconstruction ahead..."

"Thanks for the kettle...but I've already had two!"

"Auntie, stop pulling my clothes..."

At this time, Hatake Akira was in pain and happiness. He enjoyed being sought after by thousands of people, but he also had to endure various "harassment" again and again.

Although the remaining ninjas of Konoha or the villagers of Konoha meant well, Hatake Akira, who had never experienced such a situation, still felt somewhat awkward.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Hatake Akira cleared his throat. He thought he would have to shout a few more times before the scene would quiet down. However, he did not expect that a not-so-loud shout would suddenly pause the noisy scene.

quiet!

You can hear the needle drop!

The only sounds at the scene were everyone's breathing and the sound of Hatake Akira scratching his head.

Is this another kind of prohibition?

But isn’t this a bit too much... Even though Sarutobi Hiruzen has been the Hokage for many years, he may not be able to achieve this level of prestige among the people, right?

Moreover, isn’t its prestige among the people rising too fast?

A series of question marks kept hitting Hatake Akira's mind, and he had to put a lot of effort into getting rid of the random thoughts in his mind.

"As a ninja of Konoha, it is my duty and mission to protect the village and the villagers. I just did what I should do. Please don't get too excited and don't blindly worship individualism!"

"Also, the current situation is the same as what the Sandaime Hokage said before. We are not out of danger yet, and many of our companions are still trapped in the wreckage of the building."

"Everyone, take a break. Please be more attentive, ninja seniors. Organize the young and strong villagers to join the rescue effort later!"

"Now, everyone, go back to your seats and sit quietly. Don't make any noise. If there are any injured, please get out of the line as soon as possible and go to Konoha Hospital for treatment."

Hatake Akira waved his arms to maintain order at the scene. It can be said that he has now replaced some of Sarutobi Hiruzen's functions.

But neither the ninja nor the villagers present thought anything was wrong.

"Yes! Master Ming!!!"

"Yes! Our hero!!!"

"Yes! Our hero Ming-sama!!!"

The shouts from everyone in the sky made Hatake Akira shudder. The cult of individuality in the world of Naruto is really too crazy and too common...

But then, Hatake Akira raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

This feeling is really good. He also understood why so many people like to be Hokage, and why Sarutobi Hiruzen insists on being Hokage and doesn't want to step down.

Power, prestige, the feeling of being trusted and being sought after are the most powerful and difficult poisons for men to get rid of!

For a moment, Hatake Akira wanted to completely immerse himself in it and wantonly release the ambition deep in his heart...

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was chasing the Root Ninja, suddenly turned around and looked at Konoha.

The sound of mountains and tsunami still reached Sarutobi Hiruzen's ears, which made him feel mixed feelings.

One is the expectation for the future of Konoha, the second is the admiration for Hatake Akira, and the third is the worry about his own political career.

The old is replaced by the new, this is an unchanging truth from ancient times to the present.

The lion will always grow old one day, but when that day really comes, reluctance and struggle will naturally occur.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was in this state at the moment. Once upon a time, he had received sincere praise and cheers from the villagers and ninjas of Konoha.

But now...

He closed his eyes and opened them again, then took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

"Hiashi, how far is the ninja team from that location?"

"500 meters ahead!"

"Okay, everyone, speed up a bit!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was certain that the fleeing ninja group in front of him were from the Iwagakure Village. With murderous intent on his face, he was determined to make them pay the price.

You can't just come to Konoha whenever you want and leave whenever you want!

But after chasing forward for a few minutes, the fleeing ninja team suddenly stopped. Before Sarutobi Hiruzen and others could attack, the Root ninjas knelt on one knee and saluted.

"Lord Hokage!"

"This……"

Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned, but all the Konoha ninjas who followed Sarutobi Hiruzen had the same expression on their faces.

How could he be a ninja from the Root?

Why are they running?

"Everyone, get up."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became visibly ugly. Being an experienced and shrewd man, he figured out the key to this immediately.

"Did Danzo send you here?"

"Yes."

"Didn't Danzo tell you anything else?"

"This... doesn't exist!" The ninja headed by the Root gritted his teeth and bit the enemy to death with his neck stretched.

"Hmph, very good!" Sarutobi Hiruzen snorted coldly, "Shimura Danzo really has a good plan!"

With a fierce flick of his sleeves, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and left.

Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a message, "Go back and tell Shimura Danzo that I thank him on behalf of the entire Hidden Leaf Village!"

"Hizuki, let's go!"

Hinata Hiashi hurriedly followed Sarutobi Hiruzen's footsteps, but before leaving, he did the same as Sarutobi Hiruzen and looked back deeply at the Root ninja who was still kneeling on one knee on the ground.

Shaking his head and sighing, Hinata Hiashi felt uncomfortable.

At this critical moment, Shimura Danzo and the Root under his command actually jumped out and stabbed at this time...

Obviously, Hinata Hiashi also guessed it roughly.

If this tacit understanding could not be seen, Hyuga Hiashi would not be worthy of being the patriarch of the Hyuga clan.

"Hizu, what do you think about what happened today?"

On the way back to Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked suddenly.

"I think……"

"You need to think carefully before you answer." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked deeply at Hinata Hiashi.
