Naruto: Long Live Hokage's

Chapter 103: Matchmaker

“OK, okay, I will talk to Hokage ..” Patriarch Nara nodded again and again, bitterly.

He turned around and walked to the Hokage Building to find Masahiko sitting in his chair with his feet on the table.

“Hokage Substitute, this is already the sixth.”

“Nothing, just get used to it, there will be more in the future.”

It had been a month since Masahiko became Hokage, and she had just received her sixth complaint.

“Damn it, anyone dares to complain to Hokage? There is something wrong with these people ..” Masahiko did not say anything, but deep down, he began to feel annoyed, “Being Hokage is not at all pleasant.”

Nara Patriarch sighed, and felt like he had no choice but to say it, “Hokage Substitute, you should at least treat Fire Nation officials with a little more respect.”

Masahiko narrowed her eyes, and then she sat up straight, “Can you blame me? Only people who have a death wish would like to visit Lightning Country in such a situation.”.

“But, you should at least be polite ..”

“So, since I'm Hokage now, should I be licking their shoes?”

“The world is not peaceful now. In this war, we will definitely need the funds they will give us.”

Masahiko shook his head, “You can't always depend on others. This is not good for Konoha's economic development!”

“Economic growth?” Nara Patriarch looked puzzled.

“You ... oh, forget it.” Masahiko had some ideas, but he felt that they were all useless.

“Do I have to say that being rich depends on how we grow our own crops?” Masahiko smiled inside.

“Hokage Substitute ..” Nara Patriarch looked at him helplessly, “I really hope you ..”

“OK, I already understand!” Masahiko waved his hand cutting off his words.

But he secretly thought, “Keep nagging at me one more time, and I'll knock out your front teeth!”

“There's one more thing. War compensation from Sunagakure has been sent. Should we mobilize the blacksmith now? ”

Masahiko smiled and nodded, “Ya, collect. But isn't Sungakure so gentle? I will expand it even further. Expect us to improve our research on Ichibi Jinchuriki at this rate.”.

Just a month ago, Masahiko sent an envoy to Sunagakure. Of course, as a sign of friendship and alliance, Sunagakure needed to provide large amounts of minerals to Konoha.

Although the Land of Wind was the largest country among the nations, it had the least natural resources. Otherwise, they would not have asked Konoha and Kumogakure to trade and supply.

Masahiko sent his letter directly to the half-dead Second Kazekage, who was seriously injured by Mito, mentioning that next time, he would ask him to aim at his head.

However, it seemed like the Second Kazekage was a formidable man, and after a while, he replied with another envoy and wrote down half of the resources, hoping to negotiate with Masahiko.

Unexpectedly, when Masahiko saw that, he added another 50% to his original offer and sent it back. Kazekage agreed soon after.

“Hokage Substitute, do you really care to get that information?” Nara Patriarch hesitated, then asked.

Masahiko shook his head, “Not really. Not everyone is like Mito. He will not be able to control Ichibi Chakra perfectly.”

“Is there anything else?” Masahiko lay down again with his feet on the table.

Nara Patriarch paused for a moment, then remembered something, “The students of the Ninja Academy will soon graduate.”

“Oh, are there any geniuses?”

“Well, there is a child who is only seven years old, he signed up for the graduation exam and is expected to pass.” Answer Nara Patriarch.

“Ah, genius? What's name?” Masahiko was still lying in his chair feeling lazy; he had two boys who graduated at the age of six years earlier, so it wasn't too overwhelming.

“WHO?” Masahiko quickly sat up straight.

“Hatake Sakumo, is there a problem?”

“No, no problem,” Masahiko replied, then she lay down again.

“How can I forget him, White Fang Konoha...” Masahiko whispered, “Will anyone else appear in this era?”

“By the way, Nara Patriarch, is there a student named Maito Dai in Ninja Academy?”

“Maito Dai? I'm not sure..”

Masahiko frowned. Kakashi's father and Guy's father should be about the same age. Should I go look for him?

“Ah, forget it, gold always shines.”

Masahiko did not say much, but Nara seemed to realize for herself that she needed to pay attention to this Maito Dai.

“Kakek Masahiko!” A girl's voice came from outside, and suddenly Masahiko's face showed unease.

“Yuna, you skipped class again..”

The girl's name is Uzumaki Yuna. She is seven years old, and Yuriko's daughter. After Ashina's death, Masahiko gives her all the love she can give because she feels guilty for her father's death. And because of the kind of relationship he had with his mother, Masahiko told him to call him grandfather.

Shikaryu smiled bitterly upon seeing her, “Hokage Substitute, I will go.”

Masahiko waved his hand at Nara Patriarch, then saw Yuna walking to his side, and asked again, “Why did you skip school again?”

Yuna pouted, “Kakek Masahiko, I know everything they teach in school..”.

“But still, learning is important.” Masahiko smiled as he said this, it was nostalgic because he felt the same about third grade in his previous life.

When he recalled that, he almost laughed out loud, then said, “Forget it, if you don't want to go, then don't go. But why didn't you sign up for the graduation exam this year?”

Yuna inherited Yuriko's talent perfectly. At the age of seven, he was already at the level of Genin.

Yuna shook her head, “Kakek Masahiko, can you teach me some Ninjutsu tricks. But there was an annoying white-haired boy in my class, who I couldn't win against. I want to beat him, then I can pass again next year!”

“White hair?” Masahiko stops for a moment, “Hatake Sakumo?”

Yuna nodded, “Do you know her as well?”

“Nara Patriarch just told me that he applied for graduation.”

“What?” Yuna shouted, “That annoying white hair! I'll apply for graduation too!”

With that said, Yuna quickly rushed out.

Masahiko froze for a moment, then she shook her head bitterly, “This girl is not like Yuriko when she was young. However, he seems to have moved on from losing his father. Sure enough, I'm glad to have asked Yuriko to send him to Ninja Academy!”

Masahiko then scratched his head, “I feel Yuna will have a good friendship with Sakumo.”

Masahiko suddenly thought that setting up the two children was a good idea.

“If Yuna and Sakumo end up together, will they give birth to an upgraded Kakashi? Wait, what if it's not Kakashi?” Masahiko.

“Don't worry about that, the plot has deviated so far, Kakashi .. Sorry, bro.”

“So, how do I make a good first impression for both of them? Or should it be more classic like a hero who saves beauty?” Masahiko scratched his head.

Masahiko's traditional Uzumaki-style marriage is coming to an end…
