Chapter 704

Godaime Hokage.

Hatake Kaede.

This wasn't like Madara or Hashirama, who had become a legend, but a living Shinobi God.

And this year, Kaede was only 17 years old.

Compared to when he was 15 years old, he was now 17 years old, and he began to bear the behavior of many girls.

And these behaviors often made Kurenai and Nohara Rin unhappy, which led to more and more excessive behavior between the two, and because both of them lived in the Hokage Building, Kakashi was affected, and he suffered some pain that he shouldn't have to bear at his age. Finally, he resolutely decided to move out of the Hokage Building and live alone.

Of course.

It is worth mentioning that Kakashi now has a lot of pursuers.

After all, he is the younger brother of Kaede, and he is also a famous existence in the Shinobi world, and as he grew older, Kakashi gradually became more mature.

When he was young, Kakashi basically didn't put his peers in his eyes. His arrogant personality made his peers think of him as a 'Hateful Kid', and after inheriting the Mangekyou of Obito, he was no longer as straightforward as before.

If it wasn't for Kaede above his head, maybe he would be more popular.

"Sigh."

Kaede looked at the movement below and sighed helplessly. He was obviously in a good mood, so he waved his hand in response.

Fortunately, these girls are ninjas, and they can basically control themselves. Those who aren't ninjas can't jump on the Hokage Rock, so they won't cause any chaos.

Kaede turned around.

With a gentle lift of his finger, the wooden box with the 'Hokage' sealed on it fell into his hand, and with a gentle pinch of his finger, the seal on the wooden box was broken.

After opening the wooden box, a meteorite full of holes appeared inside, and from the perspective of the Tenseigan, one can clearly see that it is constantly emitting purple fluctuations.

"It's not the power of the Juubi …"

Kaede's eyes flashed as he analyzed the power of the 'Hokage' and stretched out his left hand.

He remembered that he once read something saying that this thing is part of the Juubi, but in his perception, it is completely different from the tailed beasts, and it isn't even chakra.

"Well."

After weighing the 'Hokage' in his hand, Kaede roughly figured out what this' Hokage 'is, and if he's not mistaken, it should be a meteorite with radiation.

For ordinary people, this kind of radiation is enough to be fatal for a long time, and it can also cause great harm to ninjas, but it can have a certain impact on chakra, giving it a special form and power.

This is the so-called 'Peacock Technique'.

"It's meaningless."

Kaede shook his head, he wanted to directly crush it, but considering that this is a meteorite, and it may have other uses in the future, so he put it back in the wooden box and added a layer of Eight Trigrams seal on it.

Then his figure flickered and disappeared from the Hokage Rock.

After placing the 'Hokage' in between the seals on the fourth floor of the Hokage Building, Kaede returned to his office and picked up the documents on the table to read.

In the past two years, five of the small countries that were close to the Land of Fire have been annexed, and the Land of Bear is the sixth.

Because Kaede wants to be able to do this in the most stable way possible, every time a small country is annexed or unified, he will send more than ten times the number of troops to be stationed there.

The effect is also quite good.

Because Kaede's behavior is more inclined to annex than plunder, and because the number of troops he sent far exceeds the number of small villages, directly forcing them to surrender, this continuous annexation can hardly be called a war, because the actual casualties are very few.

In the past two years, Kaede didn't spend all his time leisurely experiencing the life of a Hokage. At the same time, he continued to train. One month ago, he opened the seventh gate of the Eight Inner Hidden Gates.

And after opening the seventh gate.

The only thing left is the eighth gate located in the heart.

Compared to the previous seven gates, the difficulty of opening the eighth gate is almost several times higher than the previous seven gates combined. On the one hand, the requirements to open it are extremely high, and on the other hand, after opening the eighth gate, it needs to resonate with the previous seven gates, forming a complete 'Eight Inner Hidden Gates Formation' pattern.

Kaede can feel that at the normal speed of training, opening the eighth gate will take about seven to eight years … But for him, who has already accelerated time to nine times the normal speed, if he goes all out, it will probably take less than a year.

"The situation in the Town of Rain has basically stabilized, the situation in the Town of Grass is almost the same, and the situation in the Town of Bear won't be long."

Kaede flipped through the documents on the table.

These are all intelligence documents from the small countries that have been annexed.

According to the current progress, it is estimated that in another two years, all the small countries around the Land of Fire will be annexed, and after that, the four great shinobi villages can be started one by one.

"Hokage-sama ~"

"Try my new invention, grapefruit tea."

Just as Kaede was flipping through the documents, Rin walked in with a cup of tea.

Compared to Rin two years ago, the current Rin, who is 16 years old, has a well-developed figure. She was wearing a short skirt with short sleeves, and her arms were like white jade. Her expression was playful and cute.

"Oh, okay."

Maple accepted the tea and snacks Lin brought over. He took a sip and savored the taste.

Rin looked at Kaede expectantly.

"The taste is quite good."

Kaede took another two sips, tasted the tea, and revealed a smile as he looked at Rin, "If you were to open a tea shop, it would probably be very popular."

Rin revealed a bright smile, tilted her head, and looked at Kaede, "I will only make tea for you, Kaede."

Kaede almost choked.

He had to admit that girls who take the initiative are quite scary.

Especially after Kakashi resolutely chose to move out, Rin and Kurenai became even bolder, making him wonder what kind of scene he would see every day when he returned home.

Just as Feng Ye took another sip of tea and was about to say something, a figure draped in a black cloak appeared in the office. The figure bowed to Feng Ye and quickly spoke.

"Hokage-sama."

"The messengers of the Cloud Village have arrived."

Kaede looked at the Shadow Guard and nodded, "I see … Well, Rin, you go and receive them."

"Okay."

Lin showed a serious expression, nodded, and turned to leave.

After many defeats at the hands of Uchiha Shisui and Kakashi, the Cloud Village chose to negotiate peace with Konoha and signed the agreement about two months ago. The signing of this agreement also means that the Third Shinobi World War has come to an end.

Although the other party is a defeated village, they are still messengers who came for peace, so they still need to be taken seriously.
