Chapter 565

So, sigh!

Choza and Inoichi shut their mouths.

Even Akimichi Torifu, after a long silence, spoke helplessly.

"Alright, I understand."

"I agree with Shikaku's decision; let's each split off half our clansmen and have Koji take them directly to the Uchiha."

"This must be done immediately; we don't have much time left."

"By tomorrow morning at the latest, the ninjas from the Rock front should be back in the village!"

"We are all our own people, no need for too much courtesy."

"Everyone go back and prepare; this must be completely decided by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"Then have the leaders of each clan go report to Koji."

"Shikaku, farewell!"

Akimichi Torifu did not hesitate.

He was a man of action!

Since what Nara Shikaku said made sense, and Nara Koji had also agreed.

All the smart people of the Nara clan felt the time had come, and from the Namikaze Minato matter, he had also faintly sensed something wrong.

So, let's do it.

After speaking.

He naturally didn't hesitate and, together with Akimichi Choza, hurried toward the Akimichi clan.

After all, just as he said.

With less than two days left, getting all the preparations done was truly an urgent matter.

Yamanaka Inoichi was much the same.

After a brief exchange with Shikaku, he left in a hurry.

Clearly.

He also had to hurry back to the Yamanaka clan and start urgently handling these matters.

Nara Shikaku did not stop them.

After briefly saying goodbye to them, he watched them leave, then lazily returned to the tea room and began to drink tea leisurely.

Yes.

After working for so long, he really should take a good rest.

Just then, Yoshino walked in.

"Shikaku, I heard everything."

"The Yamanaka and Akimichi are starting to prepare; doesn't our Nara clan need to prepare?"

She was very confused.

She had no intention of refuting the decision her husband had made.

As a member of the Nara clan.

Perhaps she wasn't as smart as her husband, but once many things were explained, she could still easily understand them.

It was precisely because of this that she couldn't figure it out.

Nara Shikaku was stunned for a moment.

But he couldn't help but shake his head, then said with a light laugh.

"My dear, you forgot."

"We still have Koji in the Nara clan; what am I rushing for?"

"Ever since I became clan head, I've been busy for so long; it's time for me to take a good rest, right?"

"On the contrary, Koji is different."

"He's been slacking off for so long; it's time to let him get busy for a while."

"I'm not getting involved in this matter."

Yes.

Thinking about how he had been busy like a dog every day since becoming clan head.

Looking at Nara Koji, who had been slacking off and fishing for so long.

It was time to let him get busy for a while.

Nara Yoshino was speechless.

No wonder.

So her husband was planning to slack off!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

However, unfortunately.

Although Nara Shikaku's idea was good, God seemed to be playing a joke on him.

Before he could even rest until lunch, he received a notification from the Anbu.

Ordering him to go to the Hokage's office immediately!

Nara Shikaku: "……"

He had black lines all over his forehead.

In his heart, he had ten thousand curses, but he didn't know if he should say them or not.

It was simply ridiculous!

He just wanted to steal a moment of leisure in the midst of his busy schedule, but God didn't give him a chance at all.

Truly, a disaster!

However.

Although he felt very helpless, he still let out a sigh.

Finally, he stood up feeling aggrieved, and amidst Yoshino's mockery, he reluctantly headed toward the Hokage building.

Of course, he wasn't stupid.

Perhaps he felt aggrieved at home, but once he stepped out of the Nara clan grounds, his whole demeanor became serious and grave.

Arriving at the Hokage's office, he bowed solemnly.

"Greetings, Lord Hokage!"
