What else do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not about wanting anything, it's just that I feel it's very unreliable following Takemi and Pervy Sage without Kakashi-sensei.\" Naruto pursed his lips and whispered to Sasuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke nodded, but then instinctively shake his head. \"Don't talk nonsense. If you want to die, don't drag me into it. When has Takemi ever been unreliable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, coward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto looked at Sasuke with disdain, but seeing Sasuke's idiotic gaze, he couldn't say anything more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mission involved only the four of them, and he knew exactly what they were going to do. This made him both excited and worried. That big fox had brought a lot of trouble to Konoha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although that bastard Takemi said he made him pay rent, I still can't help but worry…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto muttered softly. Besides worrying about the fox, he also worried about his parents' Chakra. After all, both of them relied on the Nine-Tails's Chakra to continue existing within his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, Naruto.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Kushina's voice sounded inside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiraiya-sensei is usually unreliable, but for something like this, he must have made thorough preparations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right, Naruto.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minato also smiled, his voice still gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This was originally why I sealed the Nine-Tails inside you back then. I believe you'll definitely be fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But then again, Konoha hasn't repaired the previous damage for so long, causing Naruto to have to go to Iwagakure to study, truly…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kushina complained a bit this time, and Minato advised her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps the village doesn't have that much resources, after all, we both…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, I know, I'm not being unreasonable, but I heard those two Jinchuriki from Iwagakure previously fired a Tailed Beast Bomb at you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh, those are all things of the past. The times have changed now, Kushina.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know, I know, I'm just a little annoyed, and what's even more annoying is Jiraiya-sensei, that hateful guy, he made Naruto pay for everything the whole time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And he even tricked Takemi into going to that kind of place, that old pervert!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why aren't you saying anything? Did you also go with him back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could that be?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto laughed listening to his parents' arguments in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It occasionally caused him some trouble and they would lecture him thoroughly in his mental world. But, he loved this feeling too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I must not disappoint them.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto secretly made up his mind, and at the same time, he couldn't help but look at Takemi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I can't disappoint this bastard either, if it weren't for…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw Takemi wave at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Naruto, pay for the things. I'll trouble you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto clenched his fists. He felt that he couldn't think of Takemi in a good light. If he did, problems would definitely arise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, isn't it bad to exploit your subordinates like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya watched Naruto angrily take out his shriveled little frog wallet to pay, and asked while eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you do this, your subordinates will dislike you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then don't eat.\" Takemi glanced at him and spoke disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, this kid is a qualified ninja. What's wrong with him paying for his future superior? He has no foresight at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're going to be Hokage like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Jiraiya thought the food in his hand smelled delicious, he still felt a bit flustered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You kid, don't you dare ruin Konoha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, how could that happen? Konoha is full of talented people.\" Takemi slowly spoke while eating snacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Think about it, for the Jonin class, I'll just let Kakashi-sensei oversee it. Anbu is doing well, keep up the good work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsunade is in charge of the Medical Department, and Nara Shikaku is in charge of the Political Affairs Department. And his son will definitely take over in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for intelligence and such, isn't there Inoichi-san? I don't need to worry about so much at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once I take office, I'll have Shikamaru leave the team and join the Political Affairs Department. He'll give me information every day, and I'll just stamp it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hiss…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya's eyes widened. Was being Hokage that simple?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, you're going to do it like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise? Be hands-on like the Third Hokage? Come on, everyone has their specialties. Just leave professional matters to professionals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At worst, set up a last-place elimination system. If you can't do it, get out. Konoha has so many people, if you can't do it, there are plenty of others who can.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm, worst case, send the Second Hokage to Root. That seems pretty good too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi stroked his chin. He was pondering whether to pull a trick on Tobirama in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama, I'm the Hokage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You'll regret this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya rubbed his forehead. He felt that Takemi's words were unreliable, but for a moment, he seemed to have no way to refute them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone has their specialties. Those words seemed absolutely correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entrusting things to those who are good at them, that seems to be the most appropriate thing to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just that—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what will you do? If you leave everything to others, won't you be…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll be Hokage!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takemi shrugged, speaking with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't the Hokage just supposed to guide the general direction and ensure the village stays on the right track? Am I supposed to go distribute missions too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That seems to be true…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya was a bit speechless, but he strangely felt that Takemi was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guiding the correct direction is what the Hokage should do. As for other things, just leave them to subordinates to handle, and it seems that's enough?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do I feel like you're secretly speaking ill of the Third Hokage?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have proof?\" Takemi snorted lightly, then stroked his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, I do think I can also serve as the principal of the Ninja Academy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, Konoha's education has already collapsed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I become the principal, maybe I can set things right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will definitely strike hard at those students.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1057,"2026-06-10T06:42:00.701Z",1,"novelbin.me","daed8f2e478a018c33d0f1d4944368d0d9113d09b0c2635199b56c6c92dba557","naruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-chapter-345","naruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-chapter-343",522,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-what-kind-of-starter-pack-is-13-years-lat-cover.jpg"]
