"Sir Snow Shadow..."
Her voice was long and gentle, faintly revealing a hint of exhaustion, and upon closer listening, it even carried a trace of a sob. Looking at Hyuga Kaze, who had rigorously trained her in taijutsu for several hours, constantly refining her offensive and defensive strategies, and feeling her utterly exhausted body, Hinata's eyes flashed with a mixture of awe and pleading.
At the same time, a thought flashed through Hinata's mind: "If Hanabi had grown up sooner, then the sisters could have trained in taijutsu with Lord Yukage together, and my pressure would have been much less." This thought only lasted a few seconds in Hinata's mind before she felt ashamed of her own thoughts, her face burning hot, and her body trembling violently a few times.
"Alright, alright, let's stop this physical training session here for now. We'll reward you later."
Hinata felt as if she had been granted a pardon after hearing Hinata Kaze's words. She blinked her big, misty eyes, her expression a mixture of doubt and expectation, as if she were making a final confirmation.
Seeing Hinata's tired yet adorable appearance, Hyuga Kaze couldn't help but feel a pang of pity. He chuckled as he stood up and patted Hinata's trembling body.
"Alright, that's for sure. Now, let's temporarily end your reward. Hurry up and wash up. I need to go to the office to handle some village affairs. You can come with me and listen in."
Knowing Hinata was already running out of energy, Hyuga Kaze didn't intend to push her any further. Since returning to Yukigami Village with personnel and supplies last night, Hyuga Kaze had acted as a hands-off manager, delegating all the trivial matters to Mikoto, Izumi, and Tsunade. He himself had taken Hinata home to reward her for her contributions, and now that a night had passed, it was time for him to check on the progress.
Hinata quickly tidied herself up, and after a while, Hinata emerged, her long, slender legs swaying in the breeze, still looking extremely tired.
"Let's go."
Hinata thoughtfully stepped forward to help Hinata up, and the next moment they appeared together in Yukage's office.
In Yukage's office, Uchiha Mikoto and Izumi were rapidly processing documents, but their desks were piled high with files waiting to be processed. Their slightly tired expressions showed that they hadn't rested all night.
"Lord Xueying, you've come at the right time. There are still many things here that require your approval."
Despite their exhaustion, Mikoto and the others immediately noticed Hinata Kaze and quickly stood up to bow and report.
"Mikoto, Izumi, you've worked hard. Why are you the only ones handling this? Where are Tsunade and Kurenai? Shouldn't they be helping?"
Hinata helped Mikoto and Izumi up as they were carrying their luggage, then pulled them into her arms and asked them questions in a slightly distressed tone.
"Lady Tsunade, Kurenai, and Anko took the Konoha people who joined Yukigami last night to be assigned their clan residences."
Leaning against Hyuga Kaze's strong chest, Izumi let out a comfortable sigh and said softly, "Although all the Konoha squires have become completely submissive after witnessing your power, this migration involves far too many families and people. Adding to that the Ino-Shika-Cho trio that were transferred earlier, it's fair to say that almost half of Konoha is now in Yukigami Village."
In this situation, even the slightest problem could be very troublesome. Lady Tsunade is quite familiar with the heads of various clans and has enough prestige, so it would be best for her to coordinate and make arrangements.
Kurenai Yuhi was in charge of registering and cataloging those people, striving to integrate them into the Snow Village's operational system as soon as possible.
After Izumi finished speaking, Mikoto, who was on his other arm, also spoke up: "As for the supply scrolls and the like that we brought back from Konoha last night, they are already being registered and put into the warehouse. There are too many different kinds of things involved, so it may take a few more days."
Currently, this area is mainly managed by Hyuga Seika, who is leading people to register and classify various ninjutsu resources, medicines, combat supplies, etc., sealing and storing them.
We still need to determine which of these items can be used to redeem rewards and which can be used as combat reserves.
Speaking of her current job, Mikoto looked resentful and had a headache. "Lord Yukage, you're going too far. You always dump a bunch of things on us and then go back to enjoy yourself."
"There are so many things, how can just a few of us manage to handle them all!"
Mikoto's plaintive words made Hinata Kaze, who had just enjoyed a large meal, feel a little embarrassed, so he could only touch his nose and change the subject.
"Haven't we recently added quite a few people? Nara Shikaku has also started participating in the village's operations, and the Ino-Shika-Cho triad has a lot of talented people. With the addition of people promoted from within the village, things should be running smoothly."
"Lord Xueying, you really think it's easy for others to do things."
Hearing Hinata Kaze's words, even Izumi became a little coquettish. Her cute smiling face puffed up, and her words were full of melancholy.
"Nara Shikaku is in charge of intelligence integration. Yukigami Village was too small before, and it has always lagged behind in intelligence gathering. It was slow to grasp a lot of information about the ninja world."
Although they have gathered some peripheral personnel from the ninja world and sent out many intelligence agents from within the village, they are still relatively backward overall.
Some of the Konoha ninja who joined Yukigami this time previously worked in intelligence gathering, and Shikaku is currently communicating with them to see how to proceed. Furthermore, there are also some Konoha ninjas who were sent out to gather intelligence, and Shikaku wants to compile a list and contact them.
Izumi rolled her eyes at Hinata Kaze and continued, "How can you govern the world if the speed of information transmission is slow? These are your own words!"
"Haha, Mikoto, you guys did a great job. I know you worked hard, I'll reward you properly later."
Upon hearing Hinata Kaze mention the reward, Hinata, who had been curled up to the side with sleepy eyes, suddenly jolted awake. Lord Yukage's reward was truly something no ordinary person could bear.
After making a sincere joke, Hinata Kaze's attitude became much more serious. After a moment's thought, he began to handle the matters that he should have personally taken care of.
"Let the people from the original Konoha Village adapt for a few days, and then quickly select people to participate in village affairs. I believe that those who have left Konoha understand what is best for them."
Intelligence operations continue to progress. As for supplies and the originally planned management personnel, what's the situation?
"The supplies are enough for the entire Snow Village to fight a continuous war for two years. As for the management personnel, the current reserves of ninja villages can cover the Land of Snow, the Land of Fire, and the Land of Wind. The crimes of the nobles and wealthy merchants there and the locations of their wealth have been thoroughly investigated. Once we take action, we can take them all down, confiscate their wealth, and bring them to trial in a short time!"
"Well done!"
A satisfied smile appeared on Hyuga Kaze's face. He didn't want to drag things out after taking action; wiping out the entire ninja world in one go would save him a lot of trouble.
Just then, the office door suddenly opened, and Tsunade, Kurenai Yuhi, Shikaku Nara, and their group burst in.
"Breaking news: Naruto Uzumaki is planning to create a new Konoha!"
