Konoha, Year 59
, Konoha, Fire Country
December 27th, not warm, but sunny.
7: 50 AM
Bo Fung House Restaurant
Naruto Uzumaki bit his spoon, but he didn't want to leave his seat.
"Okay, Naruto." Bo Fung Watergate gently pulled the spoon out of his son's mouth, and gave his son a loud slap, "If you don't leave now, you'll really be late. Didn't we agree to meet at 7: 55 AM in front of Naruto House? "
"But it's no use going there early, dad. Kakashi won't be there on time." Naruto continued to complain, "And you didn't rush me last time."
"Because last time was last time, and this time is this time. Don't worry, why don't we make a bet? If I say Kakashi won't be late today, then he definitely won't be late today. "
"Oh ~" Naruto was eager to make a bet, "Then dad, if I win!"
"I'll agree to one of your requests, whatever you want." Bo Fung Watergate made a solemn vow, and stretched out his hand.
"Deal." Naruto immediately slapped his hand, and he was so happy that he was going crazy, "Thank you dad for letting me."
"Hey, son. We'll see. I'll go with you today. Kakashi might have already arrived. "Bo Fung Watergate raised his chin at Naruto.
Naruto looked at his dad with disdain. He never blushed when he lied through his teeth, and his heart didn't skip a beat. He should at least be more serious when he coaxed his son, "Dad, just say that your vacation is over, and you have to go to work today."
Sure enough, Four Generations didn't react to this, as if he didn't say anything. "Okay, Naruto, I'll give you 30 seconds to change your clothes and shoes. We're going out."
Naruto could only pout and quickly prepare everything. He reluctantly handed his hand to his father and asked, "Shall we fly over?"
Watergate looked at Naruto's hand, which was still throwing a tantrum. He suddenly lowered his body, grabbed his son's waist, and fixed him under his arm like a file bag.
Naruto's body suddenly felt empty. He only felt a golden light silently flash across his body. The air in his lungs expanded and contracted, and he saw his two teammates waiting at the entrance of Naruto's building.
Bo Fung Watergate put down Naruto and looked straight ahead. As if there was no one else around, he helped Aiko tidy up her clothes that he had just messed up. Then, he nodded with a smile as a form of greeting to Sasuke and Sakura. Then, he entered Naruto Tower with an even more confident expression. Customers and passing ninjas from various countries who stayed at the entrance waiting for the mission hall to open for business flashed in the cool winter morning breeze.
"… Ming … Ming … Ming … Ren … That, that …" Sakura covered her mouth and said with a trembling voice.
"Ah, my father … Isn't he handsome?" Naruto showed Sakura a standard 16 teeth, and his senses finally returned from the state of "too embarrassing" to the state of "my father is Naruto".
"Just now, that was the legendary Thor." Sasuke stared at Naruto with a face full of hope.
"Yes, yes." Naruto Uzumaki patted his teammate and bad friend Sasuke with one hand, and pointed to the sky with the other, "New Genin Uchiha Sasuke, that's the famous unique skill of our boss, Four Generations leader Naruto -sama."
"So beautiful." Uchiha Sasuke didn't habitually pat away Naruto Uzumaki's hand this time, "But, new Genin … We seem to have forgotten to salute just now."
"…"
"You don't have to be so serious." Naruto was the first to speak. He really didn't think that his father would care about whether these little cubs were polite to him or not. Moreover, Sasuke often climbed on his father's body when he was a child!
"But Naruto Genin, that's our boss … Our boss!" Sakura thought that Sasuke was right. "Sasuke, that's what you mean, right?"
"You can't forget the etiquette!" Sasuke nodded. No matter how familiar Naruto's uncle was, it was still Naruto. But, "Naruto Uzumaki, Genin, why, you, put, your, hand, on, my, shoulder?"
So, "Ping Ping Pang Pang", the three new Genin started to strengthen the team's tacit cooperation game again.
Naruto Uzumaki made a little face, while avoiding Sasuke's shuriken and Sakura's troublesome persuasion, he also deliberately looked at his watch — 7: 54: 50 — It's time to start the 10 second countdown for Hatake Kakashi's late arrival …
Of course, Kakashi, who had just slept for less than two hours, was still sleeping. He was holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand. It was 10 minutes ago, a cat-faced Anbu woke him up and forced him to hold it. It was written by Four Generations Naruto and Bo Fung Watergate — Kakashi, you're not allowed to be late today.
The author wishes Kakashi a peaceful New Year.
Almost at the same time, Naruto -sama of Four Generations walked into his office with more confidence and sat on the old chair that Naruto wanted to replace after the renovation. Well, the table is very clean, the documents are very neat, even the windows are wiped? Really,
“012110。”
"Yes, Lord." Itachi replied, and immediately a cup of freshly brewed coffee was sent to Watergate's hand.
Watergate looked at the pure fragrance of the coffee, and then looked at Uchiha Itachi who was wearing a smiling fox mask, and his expression became more cheerful. "You're starting to have a tacit understanding, Itachi."
"Yes, Lord." Itachi saluted, then turned around and took out the organized documents from the filing cabinet, and placed them in front of Watergate one by one. "Lord, this is the minutes of yesterday's meeting with the Jonin Captain, as well as the Konoha's 59th Annual Prize distribution rules and application. Please review it as soon as possible. "
"Okay." Watergate picked up the report and quickly browsed through it, and found Itachi standing there a little stupidly. "Continue."
"Yes, Lord. This is the notice of the meeting, as well as the draft of Konoha's 60th Annual Budget. Because there are disagreements between several departments, the General Staff Department has applied for an arbitration meeting. Would you like today or tomorrow, in the small conference room? "
"Tomorrow afternoon, 2: 30, small conference room." Bo Fung Watergate handed the signed application to Itachi. "Continue."
"Also, this is the draft of your New Year's speech. The General Staff Department has reported, "Itachi paused, picked up the note clipped to the cover of the document, blinked, and read," If you have any dissatisfaction, please. Please mention it as soon as possible, and the team in charge will change until you are satisfied. So please don't change the content of your speech at will, it will be difficult for them to deal with it. "
"Oh." Watergate took a sip of the coffee that was already cold enough to drink, picked up the speech draft and carefully looked at it. "It's well written, but, isn't it too long? You see, there are so many pages, I forgot where I was talking. If I took out the draft and read it at that time, it would be more difficult for them to deal with it. "
"Yes, Lord." Itachi showed what he had just recorded to his boss. "Is it okay to reply like this?"
"Yes." Watergate took the book, then frowned. "Itachi, silly boy, it's not the minutes of the meeting, you don't have to write down every word I said. Just tell them to write a shorter speech, I can't memorize it. "
"… Yes, Lord."
Itachi nodded and was about to continue to talk to Naruto about the remaining half of the documents, but he was interrupted by his boss.
"Deal with the previous one first."
Watergate waved at Itachi.
"Yes, Lord."
"Things have to be done one by one."
Watergate looked at Itachi who turned around to deliver the documents and sighed faintly. He was about to take a sip of coffee and read the documents or something when he suddenly saw two hands on the coffee cup. One was his, and the other was black. Raising his head, he saw that it was indeed one of his secret guards who came and went like a shadow.
Bo Fung Watergate let go of his hand under the silent gaze of the smiling dog-face mask. He watched the person opposite him lift a corner of the ridiculous mask, and the cup of coffee full of temptation went into his stomach. Watergate could only sigh silently and take the cup handed up by the Shadow Guard standing behind him.
It was always lukewarm water, no more, no less.
Watergate actually wanted to tell his lovely guards that he didn't like lukewarm water. Next time, can you add some sugar? If not, salt is also good.
In short, our Naruto -sama started another day of nourishing work under the nourishment of lukewarm water.
As for the others?
For example,
December 27, 5: 30 p.m.
Naruto Building General Staff Office
Hiroyuki Yamanaka looked at the young ninjas of all levels who were tightly blocking his office, and his back was covered with white sweat. He knew that kind people would be bullied, and kind horses would be ridden, but he didn't expect that a ninja with a good heart would be troublesome.
"I say, everyone."
Hiroyuki Yamanaka raised his hand.
"In short, we won't change dormitories. “
"I'm not asking you to change dormitories. The dormitory area will be rebuilt next year. Your Building No. 1 will be demolished and rebuilt."
Hiroyuki waved his hand.
"We won't rebuild it!"
"That building is the same as this Naruto Building. They're both from half a century ago. Don't you complain every day that there's either no water, no electricity, or no sewer? "
Hiroyuki was a little angry.
"But we were together before we went to school. Now you want us to demolish the dormitory."
Hiroyuki Yamanaka felt like he was about to cry. He really didn't know how to explain to a group of children who were almost the backbone of Konoha, whose average age was less than 18 years old.
"… Didn't I give each of you a single apartment?"
In the end, Hiroyuki could only deal with it as it came.
"But if we live alone, who's going to cook and who's going to wash the dishes? If we have to do everything alone, we might as well live together."
"Are the cafeteria and the laundry room just for show? Besides, you're not children anymore. I know that some of you are already dating. Are you going to keep dating and not get married? Do you understand what marriage is? It's two people living alone, and in the future, you'll have children. Do you understand what having children is? Don't you need a place of your own where you can do whatever you want? Don't you think the dormitory is inconvenient? "
"It's quite convenient. There's nothing inconvenient about it."
Hiroyuki Yamanaka was once again speechless. He decided to drag them down with him. "Dormitories are the logistics department's problem. You should report this to Hinata!"
"Hiashi-sama said that the planning was done by the General Staff Department. He wants us to report it to them."
"Our General Staff Department made the planning according to the Four Generations -sama's request, and he signed it for approval. You can go directly to Naruto's office. He should be there now! "Hiroyuki Yamanaka thought that it was better to report this to the final decision maker.
…
"Ninja regulations – unless it's an emergency, you can't report it!" The young ninjas looked at each other, stood at attention, and reported in unison.
"You're here to cause trouble, aren't you?"
Hiroyuki Yamanaka scolded depressingly. "Alright, alright. There's a meeting tomorrow. I'll report it to our beloved Four Generations -sama at the meeting. Before noon tomorrow, get a representative to submit a report on your request. Don't give me those unreliable ones! I want a formal application report with the correct format! "
"Then thank you, Senior Hai Yi ~" The group of brats whistled under the lead of a few brats. "Speaking of which, Sir Hai Yi, I'm not sure if you'll be able to survive." I heard that your daughter just joined a few days ago. She's the blonde hair that's been trimmed by Asuma-senpai. It's very dazzling. So – we'll definitely take good care of it for you ~ "
"Clang, clang."
Hiroyuki Yamanaka finally flew out with a shuriken in each hand. There was no one in the room in an instant.
"Sure enough, it's the quality of buildings from the war era."
Hiroyuki said to himself as he walked forward and slowly pulled out the shuriken from the crack in the wall. He was careful to avoid the blade from damaging the wall a second time, but unfortunately, cracks were inevitable. The mottled wall paint still fell to the ground. This reminded him of a certain year, month, and day that an explosion talisman was stuck in the wrong place.
"If you can go home, it's better to go home. It's better than worrying about how to deal with those unclaimed bedrolls every day. "
Hiroyuki looked at dormitory number one from afar, shook his head, and continued to talk to himself. "But it's not bad to leave something behind. Should I ask Watergate in advance later? "
But it was destined that Hiroyuki wouldn't have a suitable opportunity, because as early as half an hour ago, our beloved Four Generations -sama calmly gave up the foolish idea of "finishing today's matter today" and went home Thor. On the way, he also went to the market and bought tofu and kelp. He decided to make miso soup for his son today.
Trivial things to a large extent equate to things that must be done.
… … …
Konoha, 57
December 27th, Sunny
Today, the guys who grew up from various war orphans and those who had no one to rely on to become excellent ninjas went to the General Staff Department to protest that they were not allowed to tear down the dormitory that carried too many beautiful memories.
