.....

A week goes by in a blink of an eye,

Immediately afterwards, Nara Shikaku began his life as Executive Deputy Hokage again.

Fortunately, Narazan's return has improved his condition and mentality.

After all, there is a different concept between having someone above you take care of everything and shouldering all the consequences of a decision by yourself.

Just like workers and entrepreneurs, the former wants to go to work to make money and earn high wages.

The latter requires careful decision-making to ensure the survival and development of the enterprise.

Although Nara Dan did not take on too much work after his return, he only made decisions on important matters.

But for Nara Shikaku, it is a good thing worth relaxing.

With his clan brother, the god of contemporary ninjas, as the backbone of his clan, Nara Shikaku can also be more free to make decisions about Konoha's affairs.

At this moment, Nara Dan was fishing in the Hokage's office, while Nara Shikaku was busy writing at the side.

"Speaking of which, Hokage's mission is so heavy now, but you still dare to do two things at once?"

Nara Dan joked to Nara Shikaku who was working,

"You use the shadow clone to go to work, and the main body practices at home?"

"Aren't you afraid of your head exploding?"

Talking about the workload of Hokage, even with the physical strength of Nara Dan, he would be too busy to move forward.

As he spoke, Nara Dan had no consciousness of being the Fourth Hokage at all, as if Nara Shikaku was the Hokage.

Nara Shikaku smiled bitterly and nodded,

"Brother Duan, there is nothing we can do about this..."

"If I don't do two things at once, my practice will completely fall behind..."

"This is not good either among the Nara clan or among the high-level officials of Konoha..."

"Fortunately, I have been practicing the art of eating immortals..."

"A little bit of the shadow clone's backlash is still bearable..."

Nara Shikaku seems to have his own ideas and does not intend to stop practicing because of his power.

In this extraordinary world, the essence of the world is that the strong are respected, so Nara Shikaku's choice is naturally the right one.

Nara Dan wouldn't say much. Working harder now is also a training for Shikaku.

Even if there are any sequelae, it is not a difficult problem for Narazan to solve.

"I feel good..."

Nara gave a rare compliment,

"What I didn't expect was that while I was away..."

"You even secretly got married?"

This is the news Nara Dan only found out yesterday. He was a little surprised, but he was relieved immediately.

According to the tradition of the ninja world, fifteen or sixteen years old is already the age of marriage, let alone Nara Shikaku's eighteen or nineteen years old.

In fact, what the clan leader wanted to urge the most was Nara Dan.

But Nara Duan now has extremely high prestige, and his strength and status are higher than his clan leader. How can he really dare to urge him?

So the head of the Nara clan could only pick the weakest persimmons, found Nara Shikaku, and finally succeeded in urging the marriage.

After saying this, Nara Shikaku's face turned slightly red, and he seemed quite satisfied with his marriage partner.

"Yes.."

"My father is always urging me..."

Nara Suan burst out laughing when he saw Nara Shikaku's coquettish expression.

"alright,"

"Young man, I understand..."

"I just haven't had time to wish you a happy wedding..."

Nara gave his heartfelt blessings. He still has feelings for this clan brother who has always been with him.

"As for the gift..."

When Nara Shikaku heard the word "gift", he immediately put down the document in his hand and looked expectant.

He knew that the realm Nara Dan had reached was unimaginable, and that he had also visited other wonderful worlds.

The things he took out must be good things, just like the Devil Fruit he ate a week ago.

"Now that we are married, it seems that the children are not too far away..."

Nara Duan evoked a smile,

"I will calculate the gift together with the birth of the child..."

"If you want..."

"We still have to work harder..."

Nara Shikaku was furious when he heard this. He knew that Nara Dan was teasing him intentionally, but he still began to look forward to what good things Nara Dan could give him after the child was born.

But immediately, Nara Shikaku's expression became bitter again,

If you want to hurry up and have a baby, you won't even have much chance to rest at night...

Just when Nara Shikaku was bitter about his hard life, Yakushi Nonou opened the door and walked in.

"Fourth Generation Sir..."

"The elders of the cabinet are all here..."

Nara Suan nodded, stood up and left his seat, while Nara Shikaku and Medicine Master Nonou also followed suit.

Today is a cabinet meeting that happens once a month, and the Hokage needs to be present.

Moreover, it was also the first cabinet meeting since Naradan returned, so Naradan still had to be careful about this.

...

Hokage's office, the conference room directly below,

Five familiar figures sat together in a circle with solemn expressions.

No matter how easy-going and relaxed he is on weekdays, he can't help but become serious in this center of power in Konoha.

And some of the others knew that today's cabinet meeting was a little different.

Sure enough, I saw Nara Suan dressed in casual clothes, walked straight into the house, and sat down at the highest place.

"Everyone..."

"Looks like we haven't seen each other for a while..."

Nara Danya has no intention of hiding anything. His absolute strength is enough for him to ignore all criticisms.

And precisely because of this, when the five cabinet members saw the lines on Nara's severed head, they all bowed their heads and remained silent.

There is no benefit in publicizing the fact that one's own shadow disappeared for a whole year after taking office.

"Fourth Generation Sir..."

"Nice to see you again.."

The first one to speak was Uchiha Fugaku. This old boy has become more and more diplomatic since he took over the Criminal Law Department.

Faced with Nara Dan's thigh, he had no intention of showing any shame. During Nara Dan's absence, he kept licking the Fourth Hokage.

"Fourth Generation Sir..."

And the others were not stupid, they followed closely behind and said some commonplace words,

Nara Dan glanced over one by one, observing the changes in the top management of Konoha over the past year.

There seems to be no change in the Nara clan chief. On the contrary, due to the revitalization of the family, the birth of a son, and the practice of the art of eating immortals, his face looks younger than before.

It seems that in order to maintain the dignified image of cabinet elders, Hinata Hizashi and Uchiha Fugaku began to grow beards, and their expressions became more serious in meetings.

Tsunade was still in a state of wandering, with absent-mindedness written on her fair face. She seemed to be doing nothing like this every day.

And this is indeed the case. Compared with other departments, the Medical Department has not undergone any major reforms.

Even if Tsunade had something to do, she would be silenced and only use the medical department's funds to gamble or drink every day.

However, given Tsunade's outrageous gambling luck, Nara Dan was not afraid of losing all his funds.

Because Konoha's casinos have long been ordered to be rectified by Nara, there are basically no private casinos anymore, and even if they do exist, they are only on a small scale.

Having traveled through his previous life, Nara Dan, as a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, naturally knows the dangers of gambling.

Therefore, when Naradan took office, he ordered some rectification of the casinos in Konoha.
