Chapter 316: Team 7 Captain, Mei Terumi Five Takes the Position

"Huh... I'm finally home. Konoha looks so comfortable..."

"Ramen, ramen, I want to eat ten bowls of Ichiraku ramen, with more meat and more quantity!!"

"Wuwuwu... I haven't eaten my favorite Ichiraku ramen for a long time! You don't know how I've been out there for the past two years..."

In Konoha, Naruto was so excited looking at the familiar gate.

Two and a half years, he has been away from the village for two and a half years!

Since he became conscious, this is the first time he has been away from Konoha for so long...

"That's Naruto!!"

"It's him, that's right. Lord Jiraiya came back a few days ago, so it's only natural for him to come back."

Almost at the same time as Naruto exclaimed and sighed, Konoha's gate gods Gang Zi Tetsu and Shen Yue Izumo turned their heads and looked sideways...

"Disband, you are free to do whatever you want, I'll go to the Hokage Building to report the mission first." Sasuke looked helplessly at Naruto who was shouting, supported his forehead and disappeared instantly.

Isn't it just ramen? Is this guy that serious? ?

"Sakura, Karin, I'll go back first! Ramen, ramen, ramen..." Seeing Sasuke leave, Naruto, who was drooling, immediately greeted him and turned into a shadow and ran towards Ichiraku Ramen.

The hot momentum seemed to be fighting with someone!

Sakura and Karin looked at each other, lowered their heads speechlessly and went home. After traveling day and night, the first priority for a girl is of course to take a hearty bath...

Hokage's office

"Very good, so the Kazekage will be fine!" After hearing Sasuke's report, Tsunade couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If the Kazekage had an accident, the relationship between Sunagakure and Konoha might change again, which she didn't want to see...

"By the way, Sasuke, Naruto is back now! The number of people in Team 7 has exceeded four. So I want to transfer Sakura to the medical team, or you can replace Kakashi as the captain of Team 7. What do you think about this?" Just as she was about to send Sasuke back to rest, Tsunade suddenly thought of something and asked seriously.

She had thought about this carefully...

Ordinarily, Sasuke, who had become a jonin, and Sakura, Karin, who was a chuunin, would have to regroup to maximize their combat power.

But because of the threat of Akatsuki and the potential threat of Sasuke and Naruto, she had to let the two continue to check and balance each other in a small team.

Moreover, Karin, who possessed the Whirlpool Sealing Technique and physical healing, was a necessary candidate.

Therefore, separating Sakura was the best choice! Because only Kakashi could prevent the unexpected situation that the two of them went berserk at the same time...

However, from Konoha's perspective, it was a bit of a waste to trap Kakashi, a Hokage-level ninja, in the team.

So, she gave this choice to Sasuke.

To be precise, it was to test Sasuke's control over the "wedge".

Almost at the same time that Tsunade made the suggestion, two prompts came to Sasuke's ears at the same time.

[Detect Tsunade's suggestion, triggering A-level reward.

Mission: Eliminate Sakura; Reward: Super Chakra Scalpel...]

[Detect Tsunade's suggestion, triggering A-level reward.

Mission: Captain of Team 7; Reward: Scroll of Spiritualization Technique...]

When Sasuke heard about the technique of spiritualization, he could not help but hold his breath.

Tsunade, actually knows how to practice this S-forbidden technique of spiritualization technique! !

However, thinking that Kato Dan, who possesses the secret technique of spiritualization, is Tsunade's ex-boyfriend, Sasuke was relieved...

So, do we still need to choose? ?

"We always have to grow up on our own, and we can't be protected by Teacher Kakashi forever. So, let's be the captain of Team 7!"

Without hesitation, Sasuke directly chose to be the captain of Team 7.

Not for anything else, just to give Naruto a surprise. How could he be indifferent to such an interesting thing!

What super chakra scalpel, is it sharper than his red thunder chidori? ?

[Task completed, reward: Scroll of Spiritualization Technique...]

Almost at the same time as Sasuke made his choice, the system reward arrived as expected.

Sasuke felt his trouser pocket sink slightly, and a scroll appeared in his pocket silently.

"That's right, you have to grow up! And because of the influence of Akatsuki, Kakashi is also needed to guard the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain just in case." Tsunade nodded in agreement with satisfaction, and the meaning of her words clearly showed that she had made a decision.

"Has it come to this?" Sasuke ignored Tsunade's test and asked directly with an unexpected flash in his eyes.

Tsunade nodded carefully, "Although Akatsuki has not taken any action yet, how can we not prepare since we know they are in the Hidden Rain Village. Akatsuki may have four or five tailed beasts now, and we must not take it lightly."

"After the Five Kage Talks go smoothly, we can join forces with the four major countries to attack the Land of Rain and destroy the Akatsuki organization. Kakashi going there is also a preparation in advance..."

Sasuke also nodded in agreement when he heard this. As the saying goes: How can others sleep soundly where you sleep!

No one can sleep peacefully with a neighboring country that has nuclear weapons next to them!

What's more, they also know each other's ambitions. This is bound to happen, it's just a matter of time...

"Then go back and rest! In the next two days, you and Naruto will adapt to your own growth and wait for the mission. With your strength, the next mission will be at least A-level or above..."

Hearing what Tsunade said, Sasuke's eyes became serious and sharp, "Yes, Hokage..."

"Tsunade, I will go to collect information from the Rain Village. I want to verify a conjecture about the Samsara Eye leader..." After Sasuke left, Jiraiya flashed and appeared in a serious tone.

Obviously, he heard everything that happened just now...

"We will talk about this matter after the Five Kage Talks!" Tsunade refused without hesitation. How could she let Jiraiya take risks alone?

Not to mention how powerful the Samsara Eye is, even if it is just the strength of Akatsuki plus a few tailed beasts, Jiraiya will probably go and never come back if he goes to collect information!

Jiraiya wanted to say something, but thinking that the Fourth Tsuchikage would announce the information about the Samsara Eye at the Five Kage Talks, he stopped for the time being.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's one or two days...

At the same time, in the Hidden Mist Village.

The high-level meeting room.

"Five Kage Talks..." After understanding the whole story, the Master tapped the ground with his cane and looked at Terumi Mei, "Then, let's start the succession ceremony of the Fifth Kage!"

"Master..." The others all changed their expressions upon hearing this, and looked at Terumi Mei with complicated expressions.

"Without the Mizukage, we in Kirigakure cannot attend this Five Kage Talks!" Facing everyone's doubts, the Master said it lightly and with great force.

In an instant, everyone understood the Master's attitude and the object of his support.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were focused on one place at the same time...

"I understand, I will risk my life to defend the village, defeat Akatsuki and take back the Vulpix that belongs to us." Terumi Mei stood up, her eyes firm and confident.

"In the name of the Fifth Mizukage..."
