Chapter 320: Hinata's first day at work
Chapter 320 Hinata’s first day at work
Is trouble coming?
Naruto frowned and was thinking about how to respond when he heard the other party say:
"Uzumaki Naruto, welcome back, welcome you to become a Konoha ninja again."
After saying that, the man showed a warm smile and stretched out a hand towards Naruto.
Well.
Naruto was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until Konan reminded him that he came back to his senses. He quickly stretched out a hand and shook hands with the other party.
See this scene.
Pap, pah, pah!
The onlookers all around applauded and echoed:
"Welcome back!"
"Uzumaki Naruto, come on, I'm your fan!"
…”
Hearing people's encouragement, Naruto was a little confused. He waved his hands and tried to explain: "You have misunderstood. In fact, I am about to..."
"Naruto."
Konan put her hands on Naruto's shoulders and shook her head at him, signaling him not to say anything disappointing at this time to avoid embarrassment.
"hey-hey."
Naruto could only touch the back of his head and smile awkwardly.
As many Konoha villagers watched, the two continued to hold hands and walked towards the hotel.
While passing the corner of the street, a small incident occurred.
As soon as Naruto turned the corner, he saw a girl with long black hair walking towards him. I saw her holding a pile of documents and hurriedly walking with her head down, almost bumping into him.
“Yes, I’m sorry.”
The girl looked very cowardly. She kept apologizing to Naruto and ran away without waiting for his response.
"That rascal…"
Naruto looked at the girl's leaving back and felt that she seemed familiar.
“She is the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hinata. Have you known her before?”
Konan asked curiously, looking at Hinata's back with Naruto.
“It turned out to be her.”
Naruto suddenly realized that he had only met Hinata a few times when he was a child, and other than that he had no impression of her.
Hinata was heading in the direction of the castle tower. Seeing how anxious she was, she must be doing something important.
However, this has nothing to do with Naruto Konan.
five minutes later.
“Hu~hu.”
Hinata, sweating profusely, panted and came outside the castle tower, then raised her head and looked at the nine-story watchtower, which was more than 60 meters high.
From today on, this is where she will work.
There were people coming and going around, constantly entering and leaving the castle tower, and it was a busy scene.
Hinata couldn't help but become nervous when she thought about the next work. She was obviously going to be late, but she hesitated at the gate for a while.
Huh?
An old man noticed something strange about Hinata, and immediately walked out of the security booth and came to her.
"Miss Hinata, you must be the new Hokage secretary. I am the guard of the castle tower - Genin Maruhoshi Kosuke. Please give me your advice in the future."
The old man said with a smile, looking kind-hearted.
“Hello, hello.”
Hinata was a little at a loss, and quickly bowed to Maruboshi Kosuke and whispered, "Please...please give me some advice."
As far as she knows.
Although the old man in front of you may not look amazing, he is actually a hidden legend.
Maruhoshi Kosuke, a ten thousand year genin of Konoha.
He is a man recognized by the second, third and fourth generations.
The second generation taught him the water release ninjutsu. The third generation wanted to promote him to jounin but he refused. The fourth generation personally bandaged his wounds on the battlefield.
Now, the Sixth Generation has entrusted the important task of protecting the castle tower to the old man in front of him.
Hinata, when you go to work at the castle tower, you must be careful and don't offend the big shots, even the gatekeepers like Kosuke Maruhoshi.
This is the serious advice given by Hinata Hizu to her daughter last night.
Hinata's character is already introverted and cowardly. After meeting Kosuke Maruboshi, she became even more cautious and treading on thin ice.
Seeing the girl's fearful look, Kosuke Maruhoshi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, comforting her and saying:
"Don't be nervous. Although there are various rumors about the Sixth Generation, I can tell you that Hokage is not scary at all. On the contrary, he is a very easy to talk to."
"thank you."
With his encouragement, Hinata's tense nerves relaxed a little.
"It's your first day at work. You probably aren't familiar with the castle tower yet. Let me take you to the Hokage's office." Maruhoshi Kosuke said enthusiastically.
Hinata heard this and waved her hands quickly:
“No, no need, it’s too much trouble for you.”
"If you have any trouble, this is part of my job. Come with me."
After finishing speaking, Kosuke Maruhoshi walked into the lobby on the first floor with his hands behind his back.
Hinata came to her senses, hugged the thick document and ran after him.
Ding.
The elevator door opened, and an old man and a young man walked in.
Maruhoshi Kosuke pressed the button and while waiting for the elevator to rise, he looked back at Hinata and found that she was still very nervous.
So.
“Let me tell you a story. Do you want to know why I am called Konoha’s Ten Thousand Years Genin?”
He took the initiative to talk about his own affairs.
turn out to be.
When Kosuke Maruhoshi was young, he was eager for quick success and quick success during the execution of a mission, and he gave orders rashly, resulting in the death of two companions.
Out of guilt and self-blame, he swore an oath in front of the Second Hokage at that time. In order to punish his mistakes, he decided to only be a genin for the rest of his life.
In the following decades of his career as a ninja, Kosuke Maruhoshi dedicated himself to the village and the Will of Fire.
However, in the process, he also suffered injuries all over his body, and his left eye and left leg were disabled.
As he grew older, the aging Maruhoshi Kosuke gradually felt that he was unable to do what he wanted, and it was time to retire.
However, after all, he is just a genin, his salary is not high, and he has not been able to save much money over the years.
After retirement, he lost his financial resources and became an old man. His life became increasingly difficult and he almost lost his foothold in Konoha.
Dedicated his life to the village, only to be abandoned and forgotten in the end. This seemed to be the tragic old age of Kosuke Maruboshi, until that day——
He suddenly received an order to go to work at the castle tower as a gate security guard.
This job is not only relaxing and leisurely, but also pays well and has moderate power. It can be said that it is a position that many people dream of and would even break the bank to grab.
But it was like pie in the sky, hitting Kosuke Maruhoshi on the head.
Made him feel very unreal.
Later, Kosuke Maruhoshi learned from Kakashi that it was Lord Hokage who accidentally saw him and personally issued an order to arrange this job for him.
"Our Lord the Sixth Generation Hokage just looks cold-blooded and inhumane. But in fact, even a marginalized person like me who is ignored has the opportunity to be favored by the Sixth Generation, which is enough to show that he is a kind person. A kind lord."
With a look of gratitude and piety, Kosuke Maruhoshi revealed the unknown side of the Sixth Generation to Hinata.
His words greatly eased Hinata's nervousness.
As he was talking, the elevator door opened and the floor where the Hokage's office was located arrived.
“I wish you good luck, Miss Hinata.”
Maruhoshi Kosuke stepped aside and said to Hinata with a smile again.
“Thank you, grandpa.”
Hinata also bowed to the other party again, then mustered up the courage to walk out of the elevator and came to the door of the Hokage's office.
She took a deep breath, raised one hand, and lightly knocked on the door twice.
咚咚. There is no reaction inside.
…”
Hinata suddenly became uneasy again. Just as he was hesitating whether to knock on the door again, a deep and cold voice came from inside:
"Come in."
She was shocked, then opened the door stiffly and walked in.
Hinata was startled as soon as she entered the house.
because.
In the office at this time, there were not only the Sixth Hokage Uchiha Dan, but also Kakashi and other Anbu, as well as the shackled Orochimaru, and the atmosphere was solemn and solemn.
With Hinata's arrival, almost everyone's eyes turned to her, and each of those eyes was sharper than the last, full of scrutiny.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, I disturbed your work."
Hinata became nervous again and stammered, realizing that she had come at the wrong time.
He kept looking at the embarrassed girl, smiled, and waved to her:
“No, you’re here just in time. Make me a cup of tea.”
"…okay."
Hinata came to her senses, immediately ran to the side, put down the documents she was holding, and then hurriedly fiddled with the tea set.
Sue withdrew his gaze and ignored Hinata for the time being. Instead, he looked at Orochimaru opposite and asked casually:
“So, what can you do?”
plicity
Orochimaru swallowed. Under Dan's calm gaze, he was only a little more nervous than Hinata.
after all.
Hinata made a mistake, and at most she would lose her job as Hokage's secretary.
And Orochimaru, if what he says next cannot impress Uchiha Dan, his life will be completely over.
So, Orochimaru seized the only time and opportunity to reveal his plan to resurrect Kyuubi.
“As far as I know, in the Konoha Museum, there are dozens of masks from the Namen Hall of the Uzumaki clan, and the Death Mask among them is what I need.
As long as I put on that mask, I can let the dead **** of death possess me, and then cut open the belly of the dead **** and release the fourth generation soul inside.
After that, cast the Earth Reincarnation in one go and successfully resurrect the fourth generation, and you will be able to extract half of the Nine-Tails from his body.
but.
In this process, in order to escape the punishment of the God of Death, I need a sacrifice for death. Resurrection of the fourth generation also requires sacrifices. I hope Konoha can provide this..."
Orochimaru said carefully while looking at Suan's expression.
Unfortunately, Duan's expression remained calm from beginning to end, without any change.
After listening to Orochimaru's plan.
"Um…"
He leaned back on the chair, then raised an index finger and tapped the table rhythmically, obviously thinking about it.
Hinata on the side was secretly frightened.
She had only heard such explosive information on her first day and minute at work. No wonder—
Her father and the Hyuga family worked so hard to get her the job of Hokage's secretary at all costs.
Working next to the Sixth Generation, you can indeed get access to many of the latest secrets at the first time, and then judge the future policy direction of the village through the decisions and orders made by the Hokage.
In this way, it will undoubtedly help the Hyuga clan survive in Konoha better.
This is Hinata’s family mission.
Can a useless person like myself make an important contribution to the family?
Father, I will not let you down again this time.
Think of this.
Hinata's eyes suddenly became firm, and she was finally no longer timid and nervous.
Then, she carried the brewed tea, walked over to Duan, and carefully placed it on the desk:
“Hokage-sama, your tea.”
"Thanks."
Zhiguan picked up the tea cup, brought it to his mouth and took a sip, then frowned and put it down again, "It's a bit hot, give me a blow."
"sorry!"
Hinata's newly built confidence suddenly collapsed again.
She quickly bent down, held the tea cup in both hands, then walked to the side and blew in carefully.
Suan glanced at Orochimaru again, and saw that the latter's forehead was covered with cold sweat and he looked worried, and he couldn't help but sneered.
Look at this coward.
He shook his head, stopped playing with Orochimaru, and said on the spot:
"No problem, as long as you hand over the Nine Tails to me, I will spare your life. In addition, I happen to know a guy who should be able to provide a good sacrifice for this plan."
“Hokage-sama is wise.”
Orochimaru quickly flattered him. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile.
His life was saved.
“Kakashi, take this guy with you and wait in the underground secret room of Nanga Shrine.”
Suan gave an order to Kakashi, who immediately bowed, took Orochimaru and a group of Anbu and retreated.
In an instant, only Dan and Hinata were left in the office.
Seeing Hinata still blowing air, he stood up with a smile, took the teacup in her hand, and drank it all in one gulp.
“It’s a bit bitter.” He tasted it and commented lightly.
“I’m sorry, Hokage-sama!”
Hinata bowed almost reflexively. This was her third apology today, and she had only gone to work for less than ten minutes.
She, messed up.
“Apologizing alone is not enough.”
She looked dissatisfied and narrowed her eyes to look at Hinata, which made her heart beat fast and her whole body tremble.
Should she be fired on her first day at work?
If that happens, Hinata will not only have no shame in going back to see her father and the Hyuga clan, but she will also become the laughing stock of all Konoha.
When she thought of this, she felt desperate and helpless, and tears began to well up in her eyes unconsciously.
Are you going to cry now?
He kept looking at the pitiful girl in front of him. Although her weak and helpless look could arouse a man's protective desire, such a useless guy couldn't be his secretary.
“Hinata, you don’t want to lose this job on your first day at work, right?”
Speaking incessantly, the threat was strong.
When Hinata heard this, her watery eyes immediately widened. What she feared most had indeed happened. The Hokage was going to fire her.
No, it can’t be like this.
So she clenched her fists, mustered up all the courage in her body, and said loudly to Duan:
“Please give me another chance, I, I’m willing to do anything!”
"good!"
With his eyes flashing, he was waiting for Hinata's words, so that he could control her at will.
He stretched out a big hand, pressed Hinata's shoulder, and asked her to sit on the Hokage's chair:
"I have to go out to do something. As the Hokage's secretary, your job is to help me handle all the affairs of Konoha when I am not around."
Hinata was immediately petrified.
She envisioned many possibilities, but she never expected it to be like this.
“But, Hokage-sama…”
Hinata looked up at Dan with a look of horror on her face.
Did she hear it correctly?
It’s just my first day at work, and I have to exercise the power of Hokage on behalf of me. Is it such a child’s play?
“Don’t be nervous, just sign and stamp the documents casually. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask the deputy village chief and advisor. In short, I’ll leave it to you.”
He entrusted it to her with a solemn expression, then patted his **** and disappeared in a flash.
Hinata slowly came back to her senses when Ben was gone. She stared at the pile of documents on the desk in front of her and murmured:
“Yes, Hokage-sama.”
