Chapter 102 Nara Shikaku

Nara Shikaku nodded solemnly, and then sat back in his seat. The specific personnel transfer would not be implemented until the meeting was over.

At this time, after glancing at the people with different expressions on the conference table, Namikaze Minato tried to find some flaws in Danzo's expressionless face, but the Pot King had half of his face covered, and most of the time only his left side was exposed. His eyes are slightly squinted, and coupled with his cunning and cunning character, it is really difficult for people to see the clues...

Even so, when he thought about the subsequent death of Hizashi, Namikaze Minato hesitated. After a long time, he decided to follow what he had in mind and wait until he personally verified Kumogakure's truth before considering whether to increase the number of troops.

Thinking of this, he pondered and said: "Wait a minute, Captain Shikaku, I think we should postpone the dispatch of additional troops to the front line of Grassland..."

…

…

Night time.

In the Hokage Building, the main body, Namikaze Minato, returned from Mt. Myoboku in a somewhat depressed mood.

Recently, the practice of immortality has obviously entered a bottleneck period. It is true that it is not that easy to reach the ultimate realm of immortality.

You know, Namikaze Minato's talent for physical training is by no means mediocre. But even so, he actually vaguely felt that the barrier on the road to the extreme realm of practicing immortality made him feel insurmountable.

Perhaps, this is the shackles of bloodline...

Sighing slightly in his heart, after sending Toad Rhino away, Namikaze Minato suddenly found a graceful figure standing next to the desk, and couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"Lord Hokage, you are finally back."

This female ninja, who was wearing a black robe and a mask as an ANBU, immediately said respectfully after seeing Namikaze Minato appear.

After thinking for a moment, Namikaze Minato then remembered that the woman dressed as an ANBU was the pharmacist Nonou who he deliberately kept by his side without assigning him any combat missions.

However, every morning he went directly to Mt. Miaomu in his original form, leaving behind a clone working in the office.

So when Nonoyu appeared here, his identity was a little unclear.

Because up to now, his shadow clone has not been released. The appearance of Yakushi Noonoyu here is probably the arrangement made by the shadow clone Minato for her.

The main body Namikaze Minato opened his mouth and was about to say something.

In a certain room in the Hokage building, in the conference hall, the shadow clone Minato finally ended the meeting. At this time, he noticed that the handover time had already passed, so he immediately canceled it after Danzo, the advisor and others left. The technique turns into smoke.

At the same moment, the main body Namikaze Minato immediately received all the information that the shadow clone experienced today.

This information also includes the work arrangements of pharmacist Nonoyu for today.

When Minato Namikaze accepted the experience and information of the shadow clone, he was also accompanied by a sense of fatigue. After all, this was the only drawback of the auxiliary ninjutsu of the shadow clone.

"...Thank you for your hard work, Qing."

When he learned from the shadow clone that he had arranged to handle simple government documents for Nonoyu, he suddenly felt dumbfounded.

As an ANBU, there's not much you can do if you avoid dangerous combat missions.

Especially since it is still wartime, there are basically no missions that do not require combat. Three of his four ANBU units were sent out of the village at this time, either patrolling the border or participating in special combat missions.

Therefore, it is indeed not easy to arrange some work for Nonoyu that does not require fighting...

Returning to his seat, Namikaze Minato flipped through the pile of documents handled by Nonou today and found that all of them were completed very well. Perhaps because he has experience in espionage, Yakushi Nonoyu appears to be very handy and talented in handling information documents.

"You did a great job today. I didn't expect you to be so comfortable with this kind of clerical job for the first time."

"Then, I'll leave it to you tomorrow..."

Namikaze Minato was very satisfied with the work that Nonoyu had completed today, and he raised his head and smiled in approval.

However, the pharmacist Nonoyu under the mask looked stunned and hesitated to speak.

After a pause, he finally couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Does Hokage-sama want me to continue doing this kind of clerical job tomorrow?"

Namikaze Minato didn't think much and nodded.

"Lord Hokage, I heard that on the front line of Grass Country, the war between Iwa Ninja and Konoha is in a state of anxiety.

The remaining teams 2, 3 and 4 have all been dispatched outside the village to perform war-related tasks. Are there no combat tasks that I need to be sent to perform? "

After hesitating for a long time, Medicine Master No Naiyu finally asked the doubts in his heart.

During this period of time, the tasks assigned to him by Namikaze Minato were a bit too comfortable for the ANBU position. Even trying to get her to do clerical work today...

This made her unable to help but feel confused.

"Well, there are no such tasks for the time being..."

Minato Namikaze, who was sitting on the seat, felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Nonoyu said.

He could only smile and say perfunctorily.

Even through the mask, he could still feel that Nonoyu's eyes were definitely full of confusion and confusion as he looked at him at this moment. Sure enough, by arranging tasks for her to be treated differently in this way, she will still notice it sooner or later.

In this case, he couldn't say that he didn't arrange any dangerous tasks for her in order to tie Kabuto tightly, right?

Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato quickly changed the subject, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early..."

"...Yes, Lord Hokage."

In his heart, Namikaze Minato's words obviously did not dispel Nono's confusion.

But since Lord Hokage said so, she certainly couldn't question anything.

After bowing, Yakushi Nono left quickly.

In the office, Namikaze Minato felt relieved when Nono left.

This won't work. It seems that sooner or later he will have to find a way to find a reason to let Yakushi Nono do his clerical work with peace of mind and stay away from dangerous combat tasks.

After casually tidying up the desk, Namikaze Minato was also ready to leave the Hokage's office and go home after get off work.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the office.

Minato Namikaze, who had just stood up and left his seat, suddenly felt helpless. If nothing unexpected happened, today would probably be another day of overtime...

Minato Namikaze, who had begun to get used to this kind of situation, had to sit back down again.

After regaining his composure, he immediately invited the person outside to come in.

To his surprise, the person who came in was actually Nara Shikaku, who had just left the meeting.

After Shikaku entered the office, he looked up and saw Minato Namikaze sitting in his seat, but he scratched the back of his head first, smiled apologetically and said, "Hokage-sama, I'm really sorry to bother you so late."

"But I have some doubts about what happened in the meeting this afternoon, so I want to discuss it with you..."
