I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

Becoming a ninja requires talent, that's true, but even talented people need the opportunity to become ninjas.

Even the seemingly simplest physical training is a secret to ordinary people; it's not something you can master just by hitting wooden stakes!

The core of martial arts actually consists of two parts: techniques and training methods.

Techniques like Morning Peacock and Daytime Tiger are already considered secret techniques, but even something as seemingly simple as Leaf Whirlwind is quite sophisticated.

As for training methods, without guidance, even a sport like running can ruin a person's health!

The standard training posture alone is something that not everyone can obtain.

"...So, the ninja world still has a long way to go. You're not planning to block the path of those who come after you in order to avoid getting involved in power, are you?" Naruto asked.

“You’re not stupid at all, you just prefer not to think about anything.” Kitahara Kaede smiled.

Naruto was never stupid; his seemingly carefree behavior since childhood was just him forcing himself to act that way.

Just as he knew what he was doing, he chose to provoke anger by playing pranks because he didn't want to be ignored.

"Sometimes you have to be carefree to survive." Naruto shook his head with a wry smile.

That is to say, he now has his own life, which is why he is willing to talk to Kitahara Kaede about these things.

If this were when he was a child, Naruto would rather just grin like an idiot in this situation.

"The ninja world wouldn't normally attract much attention from the universe (Zhao Ma Zhao), because there's nothing particularly special about it. It's just that after the Otsutsuki clan was eliminated, the ninja world lost a protective umbrella," Kitahara Kaede said.

The Ōtsutsuki clan's sphere of influence was vast, so even if there were foreign invaders, it would be difficult for them to notice a small ninja world.

However, the fact that someone from the ninja world had defeated the God King of the Otsutsuki clan meant that outsiders would inevitably take notice of the ninja world.

"So the remnants of the Otsutsuki clan are actually living a very difficult life?" Naruto laughed.

"Of course it won't be good. Those guys outside will keep testing us, and the target of their tests is the Otsutsuki clan. We might not have to wait long before we receive news of the Otsutsuki clan's plea for help and surrender," Kitahara Kaede said.

This outcome was predictable.

Kitahara Kaede was absolutely certain of this outcome! The universe is cruel, and the law of the jungle always holds true.

Chapter 901 Silly

"If the Otsutsuki clan intends to surrender, you would accept them, right?" Naruto asked.

“Of course, although the Otsutsuki clan is not powerful enough, they are the best choice to serve as a barrier for the ninja world,” Kitahara Kaede said.

The Otsutsuki clan are basically all clones of the Otsutsuki God King, but these clones have also developed their own consciousness.

If you want to ensure that the somewhat disgusting Otsutsuki God-King never returns, killing all the Otsutsuki clan members is certainly a good option.

That would be too troublesome, and the aftereffects would be significant!

Faced with the crisis of annihilation, no one knew what kind of potential the remnants of the Otsutsuki clan would unleash.

Therefore, Kitahara Kaede had another plan in mind, which was to keep the Otsutsuki clan captive!

Let the Otsutsuki clan be to the ninja world what the Uchiha clan is to Konoha!

Make all members of the Otsutsuki clan live under Kitahara Kaede's nose, and then restrict them from becoming powerful beings of order!

This will prevent the resurrection of the Otsutsuki clan's god-king to the greatest extent possible!

Although that guy wouldn't pose much of a threat to Kitahara Kaede even if he were to be resurrected, Kitahara Kaede didn't like the scenario of a dead enemy, 747, suddenly coming back to life and launching an attack.

“I have an idea. After the Otsutsuki clan arrives, let’s keep this news a secret. We can announce it after the Otsutsuki clan has completely surrendered!” Naruto said.

He didn't understand time, but he knew that those enemies came from the future.

Why not give those guys a little trouble?

“Sure, even if those guys are from the future, once they arrive here, this is the present I control. Their memories won’t change,” Kitahara Kaede said.

It's not that this method is particularly effective, but rather that it makes the enemy exceptionally fun.

Therefore, Kitahara Kaede is willing to spend a little effort to find some fun for herself.

"I'm back!" Tsunade walked over carrying a sealing scroll.

Needless to say, the thing in that scroll was a demon.

"Welcome back. There shouldn't be any danger this time, right?" Kitahara Kaede asked.

Although Tsunade is unlikely to encounter any danger when facing the demon, she should still offer the proper greetings.

"Of course not, everything went smoothly." (bddg) Tsunade laughed heartily.

Then he handed the scroll in his hand directly to Kitahara Kaede.

“The demon is inside. I’ve severed the connection between the demon and the priestess of the Land of Demons. This thing still has consciousness, so I can only entrust it to you,” Tsunade said.

Nagato was also capable of erasing consciousness.

However, Tsunade would never ask Nagato for help with something like that.

What everyone else can do, Kitahara Kaede can do too. Instead of wasting time going to Nagato, it's better to just bring it to Kitahara Kaede to handle.

“I plan to give this power to Ino after I’ve dealt with the consciousness of the demon,” Kitahara Kaede said.

Of course, there was some personal motive involved, but Kitahara Kaede still intended to consult Tsunade's opinion.

"Then give it to her. We have plenty of time. I don't want to see you sad because of the death of someone you know." Tsunade smiled.

However, this smile wasn't as cheerful and generous as before.

Tsunade approved of the relationship between Kitahara Kaede and Ino; she had no objections.

But it's impossible to say that I don't care at all.

“Alright, I plan to give some of the fruits of the divine tree to my acquaintances later. The sooner they become powerful beings of order, the more benefits they will receive,” Kitahara Kaede said.

This is not a joke; he really intends to do so.

As for whether people from other ninja villages would be jealous of this, Kitahara Kaede didn't care.

If any fools were to stand up and demand that Kitahara Kaede share the fruits of the Divine Tree, then Kitahara Kaede would have to teach them a lesson.

While the collection of these divine tree fruits wasn't solely due to Kitahara Kaede's efforts, the contributions of others were certainly not insignificant either.

Ai and the others will have no objection to the distribution of the Divine Tree fruits.

Because they all knew that without Kitahara Kaede, they wouldn't even be able to harvest these divine tree fruits, and they might not even be able to save their own lives.

They all know what's going on in this situation, so naturally they won't do anything foolish.

"If you're willing, then so be it. But the future of the ninja world can't be like the Otsutsuki clan creating greenery in space, can it?" Tsunade asked.

This is a question to Kitahara Kaede about the future direction of the ninja world.

They have seen many civilizations in the universe, and each civilization has its own core competitiveness.

Civilizations that lack this capability will find it difficult to gather resources without resorting to force.

“Sealing techniques, huh? Sealing techniques have always been a specialty of the ninja world. We can make a fortune just by selling sealing scrolls,” Kitahara Kaede said with a smile.

He was certainly not referring to a simple storage sealing scroll.

Sealing techniques like the Fire Sealing Seal can be directly inscribed into scrolls for use.

There are actually many types of sealing scrolls, but they are generally only used to carry things.

"I understand. I'll give the Divine Tree Fruit to as many people as you want, but I want the largest one." Tsunade smiled and then left.

No matter the occasion, Tsunade always exudes confidence; she is one of the most famous strong women in the ninja world.

"Kitahara Kaede, you and Granny Tsunade?" Naruto asked in a low voice.

Kitahara Kaede didn't answer, but just rolled her eyes at Naruto.

"Actually, I think it's pretty good, but what do you plan to do with Ino and the others?" Naruto asked.

Clearly, he didn't understand the meaning behind Tsunade's previous words.

Kitahara Kaede had no intention of explaining the hidden meaning of their previous conversation to Naruto, who was quite clueless.

That's Kitahara Kaede's private matter. Who would bring up something like that to discuss with others?

Kitahara Kaede simply stared at Naruto with the look of someone looking at an idiot, without saying a word.

Naruto felt a little creeped out, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Um, you were actually planning to keep those mysterious enemies around for a while, right?" Naruto asked.

"Oh? Why do you ask that?" Kitahara Kaede said with a smile.

“Because you need a common enemy in the ninja world. The previous enemy couldn’t even withstand a single punch from you. Even if you use taijutsu, you’re faster than the Fourth Raikage, right?” Naruto said matter-of-factly.

“Most importantly, that enemy was in Konoha, and you didn’t even show up, let alone make a move!” Naruto’s confidence grew.

"One reason is what you mentioned, and the other is that I'm unsure what the other side's trump card is," Kitahara Kaede said.

If the enemy dares to oppose Kitahara Kaede, then they must have some trump card. Kitahara Kaede does not intend to act rashly.

Chapter 902 The Hokage's Decision

“Naruto, it’s true that we’re keeping those enemies around for their deterrent effect, but more importantly, they’re within a controllable range,” Kitahara Kaede said.

The threat posed by the enemy is within Kitahara Kaede's ability to handle, so it is naturally not treated as a major enemy.

That kind of Sands of Time can shield Kitahara Kaede from using the power of time within a certain range, but the other side has already shown that they cannot completely cover the ninja world with such a thing.

In this way, even if those enemies risk everything to cause destruction to the ninja world, there's nothing to worry about.

In the worst-case scenario, Kitahara Kaede will reverse time on a large scale!

These enemies serve as a lesson for everyone in the ninja world, demonstrating their relentless desire to destroy us.

"So, within the limits of our abilities, trouble can also be used?" Naruto said thoughtfully.

“That’s true. As the Hokage, you must have seen many similar choices, but you simply chose not to take advantage of them,” Kitahara Kaede said.

As Kitahara Kaede spoke, he took out the scroll that sealed the demon and then casually tore it open.

A strange black aura suddenly rose up, and then a somewhat disgusting-looking monster appeared in Kitahara Kaede's line of sight.

"Where am I? Am I free?" Wang-Liang was still a little dazed.

Clearly, he had suffered a lot when A and Tsunade gave him a beating.

"This thing is so ugly, Ino won't be able to accept it, will she?" Kitahara Kaede muttered to herself.

"This is the first time I've seen what a demon looks like in the outside world. It looks like a cobbled-together rotten piece of flesh," Naruto said.

As the Hokage, one needs to know many secrets of the ninja world, such as the demons of the Land of Demons, which are just one of them.

Before Kitahara Kaede came into contact with this thing, it was a major headache for the five great ninja villages. They couldn't kill it, so they could only seal it away.

Even after being sealed, it will still cause trouble from time to time, which would be a headache for anyone.

"I'll clear its consciousness first. As for the image issue, I'll have to think of a solution," Kitahara Kaede said with a sigh.

However, his hands moved swiftly, and an energy carrying the aura of life and death directly acted on the demon.

"This process will take a little time. Naruto, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm in a good mood and can share my thoughts with you," Kitahara Kaede said casually.

Dealing with the demons wouldn't be too difficult for Kitahara Kaede.

No matter how amazing this thing is, it's still just a creature within a planet. If you want Kitahara Kaede to have any trouble, only a strong person of the same level can do it.

At this point, even if Kitahara Kaede were to face the Otsutsuki God King at his peak, it wouldn't be considered a problem.

Once life leaps to the level of domination, it reaches a level that is completely incomprehensible to ordinary people.

"I'm not going to ask those naive questions in your eyes anymore. I just want to ask if it's wrong to believe in kindness and goodness?" Naruto asked seriously.

This is the only thing that's still bothering him right now.

After receiving instruction from Tobirama Senju and Minato Namikaze, Naruto gradually developed some doubts about the stance of "method" and "kindness".

“It’s certainly not wrong to believe in kindness and goodness; in fact, it’s the pursuit of beauty inherent in everyone’s humanity,” Kitahara Kaede said, looking at Naruto.

He was curious about what decision Naruto would make after receiving this answer.

Naruto was silent for a while, with only occasional noises from the demons in the air.

Kitahara Kaede's method of eliminating the demon's consciousness was somewhat crude. Although there were gentler and more comfortable methods, the demon did not deserve such treatment.

"I will do the Hokage job the way I always have, because I believe that communication and understanding are the foundation of peace," Naruto said firmly at the end.

"This is the best news I've heard. Naruto, you are the Hokage, and the Hokage is meant to influence everyone in their own way." Kitahara Kaede smiled.
