Chapter 77: A whetstone delivered to the door
It's not accurate to say that it's a secretary.,As the Hokage, Tsunade has a huge team of assistants under him.,Help him deal with all kinds of affairs.,Otherwise, a lot of things are concentrated in one person.,Tsunade can't finish it even if he doesn't sleep every day and sits in the office to work.。
For example, Nara Shikaku, that is, Nara Shikamaru's father, also has a team as the Hokage's staff officer, not to mention the dignified Hokage.
And Nara Shikaku himself is also a member of the Hokage's team, responsible for military auxiliary work.
There are also Koharu and Mito Menyan, these two advisors are more to assist the Hokage in handling the affairs of the village.
In addition, there are a large number of middle ninjas and upper ninjas to help the Hokage deal with ninja-related work in the village, such as task release, reward sending, task pick-up, etc......
Ethan remembers that in the original plot, Tsunade's disciple Shizune has been acting as a secretary, but in fact,'s job is to gather most of the work that has been handled below, and then send it to Tsunade, and then let Tsunade approve the content that already has a treatment plan, and no decision has been made, but it is up to Tsunade to make a decision if he gives a choice.
Although most of the time, Tsunade, who is the Hokage, only needs to keep stamping, but the work of the entire Konoha Village is all concentrated, and it is still a very terrible workload.
"So I'm going to sit here and stamp with you?"
Shizune is in charge of the connection between the Hokage and the team of assistants, while Ethan is assigned to help Tsunade with the messy chores in the office, doing some sorting, sorting, big data statistics, and some tiring mechanical labor (mainly stamping).
"It's just that there's a lot of work backlog lately, so I need help. ”
The three generations of Hokage had to abdicate before, and a lot of work was put aside for the time being, waiting for the new Hokage to take over, which led to some of the work being backlogged.
Now that the fifth Hokage has officially taken office, of course, these jobs cannot be backlogged any longer.
However, the Hokage couldn't hide in the office all day long, she needed to go out and 'walk' often, so that the whole village could get to know their new village chief, and at the same time, let the Hokage be more familiar with her own territory.
These jobs limited the amount of time Tsunade could spend in the office, and the backlog of work was in a hurry, so Tsunade arrested Ethan.
"It's all simple work anyway, but it's a little bit boring. ”
Ethan looked at the pile of documents in front of him that were several stacks taller than him, this large pile of documents that needed to be stamped, even if stamping was a very simple and brainless job, but this amount was not just boring, right?
Busy until late at night, Tsunade collapsed on the chair as if all his strength had been drained, and looked at the ceiling with a blank expression.
"It's finally done. ”
Ethan on the side was even more busy, after all, Tsunade only threw some very 'brainless' work to him, and some documents that required the Hokage to make detailed instructions and selections, she needed to deal with them personally.
So Ethan had to finish his work earlier, made himself a cup of hot tea, and sat there snorting slowly.
"Maybe you can get some goji berries ......"
Through the window next to it, you can see that most of Konoha Village is already dark, with only a few lights, such as some residential areas are even darker, and ordinary people have already fallen asleep at this time.
There are a little more lights in the Hokage Building, including the Hokage's office.
In recent days, this has been the norm, and there have even been cases where I was busy all night until the next day and then worked overtime until late at night, like today is relatively easy.
"That'...... I'll go back first!"
After a cup of hot tea, Ethan tidied up his desk, casually said hello to Tsunade, and left.
Tsunade was obviously not relieved yet, she was more mentally exhausted than physically tired - these messy tasks were not difficult to handle, but the sheer number of them was very irritating, and she would definitely not have the patience to do this kind of work in the past.
But after taking over the Hokage, a sense of responsibility and mission suddenly weighed on her, and she forced herself to deal with these things honestly, and so far she hasn't even complained a word.
Out of the building, Ethan originally wanted to sneak back slowly, but suddenly noticed something, and directly launched the Flying Thunder God Technique.
At this time, Tsunade was still slumped in his chair, but she was not alone in the office, and she didn't know when she had sat on Ethan's desk, looking at Tsunade who was tired as if he had lost his strength.
"I really didn't expect you to have such a day. ”
Tsunade ignored him, and even he didn't expect such a day, let alone Jiraiya?
At the beginning, Orochimaru was the smartest and most talented in ninjutsu among the three ninjas, and at that time, both Tsunade and Jiraiya thought that Orochimaru would succeed the Hokage.
"It's so unpredictable...... By the way, why did you come here today and didn't continue to teach Naruto?"
After returning to Konoha Village, Tsunade took over as Hokage, and Jiraiya once again rejected the two advisors' offers: stay in Konoha to assist Tsunade.
Instead, he continued to focus on teaching Naruto Uzumaki, in addition to Naruto Uzumaki being the son of his disciple Bo Feng Shuimen, he also saw his own shadow in Naruto Uzumaki, and now he didn't just want to protect Naruto Uzumaki from the threat of Xiao, he really wanted to teach Naruto to become a talent.
"Naruto wants to master Spiral Pill thoroughly, and it's not suitable to teach him something new for the time being...... As for actual combat experience, it is enough to have the Uchiha family's kid as an opponent. ”
The gap between the strength of Jiraiya and Naruto is too big, and it is not suitable for sparring training, at most it can only be regarded as a feeding move.
What's more, after learning that Sasuke also used weights for practice, Naruto also began to wear weights, and his current speed and explosiveness were limited.
Watching the rapid progress of the two young people's strength is actually a huge stimulus for Zilai, who is already not young, so he will not stay there all the time, and when he is free, he will run around the village, which is called 'collecting materials'.
"By the way, why did you ask Ethan to do chores for you?"
"There's no reason for that. Tsunade sat up a little straighter, one hand on his cheek, and his eyes closed as if he was faking sleep: "It's just that it's not good to see that arrogant little ghost." ”
"I'm afraid you're not the only one who looks unhappy, right?"
Ethan became the Hokage's assistant to help deal with government affairs, which actually surprised many people, and the most unhappy was not Ethan himself, but the two advisers of Koharu and Mito Menyan.
But Tsunade had just taken office, and he just called a middle shinobi to help him, and the two advisors were embarrassed to jump out to oppose it, so even if they were not satisfied with Tsunade's appointment, they didn't make a 'too much' move (self-thought).
"Hmph, all day long, pointing and leaning on the old and selling the old. ”
If it weren't for the fact that those two were really dedicated to serving Konoha and didn't do anything too out of the ordinary, Tsunade would really be going crazy, is she really a good-natured person?
But compared to these two, that Shimura Danzo ......
Originally, Tsunade thought that Ethan had a huge hostility towards Shimura Danzou because young people couldn't get used to those dark sides, but after a few contacts, she had the urge to punch that old thing in the face, so it's no wonder that Ethan had this attitude.
"I can't help you with that. ”
Jiraiya also knows his character, and he can't handle these messy things at all, so he decisively refused to take over as Hokage.
Let him face those troubles, it is better to let him go to the death battle with the Xiao Organization.
"I know you can't help much...... Speaking of which, it's quite a headache how to arrange that little ghost next. ”
The backlog of work at hand is almost gone, and while Ethan can continue to stay here as an assistant, isn't that a bit too wasteful?
As for sending out on ordinary missions, it also seems overkill, and Tsunade doesn't have a definite idea of how to arrange Ethan, so he can only take it one step at a time, or ask Ethan what he thinks tomorrow?
At this time, Ethan, who gave Tsunade a headache, sat on the roof and watched the excitement.
When he left the Hokage Building just now, he felt that the Uchiha family's mansion had been invaded, and who was the person who would suddenly invade at this time, Ethan almost immediately had a judgment.
The Sound Ninja Four!
When he returned to the Uchiha mansion using the Flying Thunder God Technique, he saw the four of them.
Unlike Sasuke in the original plot who was suppressed by the Otoshinobi Four, Sasuke, who took off his burden, showed extraordinary strength, and Naruto would not watch the excitement from the sidelines, and the two of them teamed up to make the Otoshinobi Four, who did not have the Liberation Spell Seal, very embarrassed.
After seeing this situation, Ethan was not in a hurry to show up, although Sasuke was honestly training according to his instructions, but always facing Ethan, an opponent, made it difficult for him to perceive the growth of his strength.
The time came for the four of them, as long as Sasuke found that his training method allowed his strength to improve rapidly, then he would be more determined to stay in Konoha Village to accept Ethan's guidance, instead of running to Orochimaru with just two words.
The truth is similar to Ethan's guess, although Sasuke has honestly cultivated according to the method Ethan said during this time, whether it is training with Ethan or Naruto, it is difficult for him to detect the growth of his strength.
Carrying weights for a long time gave him little chance to unleash his full strength, so he didn't know how strong he was now.
This time the situation is more special, Ethan also told him that when encountering enemies, he should be flexible and don't be brainless. Therefore, when he sensed that the enemy was coming towards him, he decisively lifted the load and directly opened the writing wheel.
"It's time to test my strength with you. ”
