Chapter 458 Appointment and Power!
“Wow~”
"I'm back."
"Why are you here just now? Didn't the ceremony end a while ago?" Shiji, who was drinking tea in the living room, glanced at Shiro indifferently and slowly put down the cup in his hand.
"I just went to see Kakashi, and Minato-san said that he was seriously injured this time."
"Are you feeling better now? There have been a lot of injured people coming to the hospital recently, and it's hard to get in, so I haven't been to see him much. I don't know how little Kakashi is doing." Hearing Shiro's voice, Keiko came out of the kitchen holding a spoon.
"He should be fine now. He looks pretty good." Shiro said as he took off his coat and recalled.
"Hello grandma, hello grandpa." At this time, A Yue also tidied up the shoes at the door, bowed, rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the kitchen.
"Hey, Ah Yue, I can handle this kind of thing, you should go and rest first."
"It's okay grandma, I'll help you."
"Ayue, you are so sensible. Can you help grandma get those small plates?"
He took a quick look at the two people who walked into the kitchen with a smile, then turned his gaze to Shiro who was already sitting opposite him and frowned.
"I heard that all of Kakashi's teammates died this time?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
"There's been a lot of rumors lately, saying he's even worse than your master and only survived by abandoning his teammates. That kid isn't that kind of person. Tell me, is there some hidden story here?"
"Really? It's okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
"Then be careful. Although I, your father, don't know much about the world of ninjas, I have experienced more than you. Now is a special period, so you must be careful. Haha, I'm just an ordinary person, and there's nothing I can do to help you. You must be careful again and again."
Shi Lang looked at Shishi's worried face and felt warm in his heart. It seemed that even in a different world, his father's mood would still be the same.
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, your son is now the god of ninjutsu, they can't touch him."
"Well, that's good. By the way, I think Kakashi still has some problems. He was almost over the psychological trauma, but now the news has spread again. You have to help him. No matter what, he is your junior apprentice. Master Sakumo took good care of our family back then. You have to remember all this. Also, you have to pay attention to the Uchiha as well. I feel that the village has a lot of opinions about them. They have been very good to us. They even gave you the secret of the medicine field and said it was an alliance, but it has always been their one-sided contribution. And..."
Just like that, Shishi kept on talking about all the favors Shilang had ever received, and he became more and more excited as he spoke. Shilang, on the other hand, just looked at Shishi with a smile on his face and responded from time to time.
Huizi in the kitchen saw this scene, smiled and touched Ayue, shook her head and continued cooking.
In the following days, the village was still dealing with post-war affairs, such as counting casualties, memorial services and other trivial matters, so Shilang's initial reward did not come until three days later.
In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage was still the same, sitting behind his desk with a pipe in his hand, and below him stood Shiro's squad.
"Emiya Shiro, after discussion among the elders, based on your contributions in this war, you will be promoted to Elite Jonin and appointed as the leader of the Jonin squad. In addition, the land will be designated as your Emiya clan's territory. How is that? Are you satisfied?"
"Thank you, Hokage-sama, that's enough. Shiro is very grateful." After the third generation finished speaking, Shiro also responded excitedly, looking very honored.
In response to this, the Sandaime nodded in satisfaction, he was very satisfied with Shiro's progress.
Of course, what Shiro said was not entirely false. He was quite satisfied with the reward. He had no intention of becoming Hokage, so these things were more consistent with his opinion.
Moreover, the sooner these things are settled, the better. Otherwise, if some of Shilang's proposals are passed in the subsequent meetings, these rewards may be reduced. Therefore, he is naturally satisfied.
The remaining three are not just here to make up the numbers. Among them, Shisui was specially promoted to Chunin, and Souji needs to pass an exam to become a Chunin. As compensation, he will be given a chance to choose ninjutsu.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Although Souji and Shisui were of similar merit, the Chunin was already the middle-level strength of the village, and as a commoner, he did not have an advantage in this regard.
The last one left, A Yue, is the one that troubles the Third Generation the most. He is strong enough, has enough experience, and has mastered powerful special abilities. Logically speaking, he can be promoted to a special Jonin.
But she was too young and the war was over, so what she needed now was steady growth. Danzo was very keen on getting her into the Root, but unfortunately, this required considering Shiro's opinion.
In the end, no conclusion was reached, and it was Mitomon Yan who finally suggested that Ayuki decide for herself and see what she wanted. If possible, then she would be satisfied, and if not, then she would save it up.
Afterwards, A Yue’s choice was not beyond Mizutomon Yan’s expectations. She chose to save it.
"Thank you, Mr. Shiro!"
After Shiro's team left the Hokage's office and were walking towards the barbecue restaurant, Shisui and the others bowed to Shiro together to express their gratitude.
They knew very well that the reason they received such treatment was entirely because of Shiro. Otherwise, as just a few Genin, let alone accumulating credit, it would be a question whether such a matter could be reported to the Hokage.
Therefore, they are still very grateful to Shiro, especially Souji. He knows very well that without Shiro's help, he would never have reached this point. Just like one of his cousins, he has graduated for several years but is still a Genin.
It is really difficult for ordinary people to climb up
"Tsk, I thought it was something else. I'm your teacher. Let's go celebrate. Afterwards, you have to train hard. Especially you, Souji. You must not mess up the Chunin Exam!"
"Yes! Shiro-sensei!"
"That's right, Souji Genin, you have to work hard. It's okay that Ayue is still young, but you can't hold us back."
"And you, Shisui, don't think you're fine. You've lost your instant body technique again, haven't you? Why are you accumulating so much experience? Practice more and absorb it thoroughly. The best way is to stop just accumulating it."
Konoha Hospital - Kakashi Ward
"Better?"
"Yeah, much better. Thank you for your concern, Minato-sensei."
"Ha, what are you talking about? You are my disciple, and it is my duty to care about you."
"., Teacher, I'm sorry. I failed to protect them and acted on my own, causing you trouble."
"." Minato looked at the depressed Kakashi and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips. "Alas, the matter between Obito and Rin has nothing to do with you. We will handle this matter. You can rest and recover."
As he spoke, the scene of Kakashi's near death seemed to reappear in Minato's eyes, and a rare cold light flashed in his eyes. After the affairs of the village were settled, he would personally go to the Akatsuki organization to ask for an explanation!
"Ahem~"
When Kakashi saw this scene, he thought that Minato also wanted to take action against Obito, so he stood up in a hurry. When he was halfway up, he pulled the wound. Frightened, Minato hurried over to support him.
"Your injury hasn't fully healed yet, don't get excited."
"Hiss~ Minato-sensei, I want to handle this matter myself, is that okay with you?"
"But your strength."
“I’ll try my best!”
"." Minato looked deeply into Kakashi's determined eyes, and thinking of what Shiro had said to him the day before yesterday, he put aside all the exhortations he had prepared, "Do what you can, and don't ruin your future for the sake of temporary progress!"
"I know, Minato-sensei."
"Well, that's good to know. By the way, I have already rejected your application for discharge. You are not in a good condition to be discharged yet."
"But."
"No buts, this matter is settled!"
Faced with the tough Minato, Kakashi could only sigh in the end. Besides, even if he was discharged from the hospital now, he could not find a way to train. The routine training could not give him the strength to fight against the Mangekyo.
Looking at the dejected Kakashi, Minato sighed. As his teacher, he was not in a good mood seeing his student like this. Then, as if he thought of something, he touched his chin and looked at Kakashi.
"By the way, I heard Shiro say, Kakashi, you want to become stronger, right? I have a suggestion, do you want to try it?"
"What is it?"
"Jinchuuriki!"
"Um?"
"Do you still remember the body left behind by the Eight-Tails when it came to rescue you? It contains most of its chakra. As for how to deal with it, we have an immature way to seal out another Jinchūriki of the Eight-Tails!"
"!!!But, that can't be regenerated, right?"
"Shiro and Orochimaru-senpai will handle this. You know the power of a Jinchūriki. So, do you want to do it?"
"." After hearing what Minato said, Kakashi fell silent. He knew very well the strength of the Jinchūriki. Even if it was only a part of the Eight-Tails, it could bring about earth-shaking changes to him.
Moreover, this is an unconscious tailed beast, so the difficulty of controlling it will be greatly reduced, but
"Thank you, Minato-sensei. I don't need this. Besides, the power of the tailed beasts is not so easy to control. I'm sorry to have let you down."
"Well, okay, then you should have a good rest. I still have things to do. I'll come see you in two days. If there's nothing else, you'd better not go out and take good care of your injuries first."
"Well, bye, Minato-sensei."
"Well, bye."
After saying that, Minato turned and left. Before leaving, he frowned at the medical staff who were whispering to each other, but in the end he didn't say anything. Tsunade would handle this kind of thing, and he didn't need to intervene.
In this way, time passed day by day, and as the post-war affairs were sorted out one by one, the first major meeting after the war finally began.
There are some changes. I made a mistake in the Kakashi rumor. It has been changed.
