  [Prosperity +33]

  [The Land of Water, Kirigakure, experienced internal flict ahead of schedule due to Gojo Kaigetsu's influence.]

  […]

  …

  Gojo Kaigetsu leaned ba the chair in the Hokage's office, his hands csped behind his head, a wide grin on his face as he listeo the system annous.

  The secutive prosperity gains tickled his heart, leaving him wanting more.

  If only the prosperity points could increase even further, it would be pure bliss.

  His eyes lit up when he heard the words “high-quality citizens.”

  The Six Eyes beh his bck blindfold gleamed brightly.

  What kind of information was hidden behind those words?

  The term “high-quality citizens” enpassed a wide range of individuals. Apart from ninjas, there were many valuable professions in the shinobi world, such as stists, master builders, tool smiths, and cryptographers…

  And this time, uhe previous +3 or +6 is that resembled forum che experience points, it was a whopping 33 prosperity points!

  “This indicates… perhaps due to the Kirigakure rebellion, the thoughts of those in the middle and upper echelons of the Land of Water’s social pyramid have been signifitly impacted.”

  This was fantastiews!

  For the nation to develop, for the vilge tress, and fojo Kaigetsu’s new policies to take root in the shinobi world, high-quality talent was essential.

  Establishing specialized schools for ordinary people would require a lengthy process. The fastest way was to poach talent from other nations.

  In this closed-off era of the shinobi world, without war or a ck of opportunities in their home tries, how many talented individuals would willingly leave their homends?

  This time, it seemed like a big wave was ing.

  After carefully seleg and abs these talents into Konoha, they could usher in another period of rapid growth.

  Gojo Kaigetsu g Minato, diligently w at his Hokage desk like a corporate sve, and couldn’t help but sigh.

  He, the highly paid advisor, had already delegated all his tasks. Staying in Konoha seemed pointless now. Why not… head to the front lines himself and make a big spsh?

  Previously, he did everything he could to stay behind the ses because he cked the ability to protect himself.

  Now, with the Limitless and Reversed Cursed Teiques as his shields, coupled with the teleportation ability of the Space-Time Ninjutsu: Blue… Even if he couldn’t win a fight, esg wouldn't be a problem.

  He ractically invincible.

  Gojo Kaigetsu was always a ninja who acted decisively. He decided to put his pn into motion.

  Like an obedient student, he raised his hand in the Hokage’s office. “Rep, Hokage-sama!”

  “Kaigetsu-kun, you… have something to say?” Minato put his hand on his forehead, seemingly aced to this bizarre routine.

  Despite being a qualified in, he insisted on using the formal rep style from the Ninja Academy training days during private briefings.

  “Rep, Hokage-sama, I want to… I have important matters to report!”

  “Go ahead.”

  Gojo Kaigetsu cleared his throat, adopting a serious expression. “I pn to personally visit the Kumogakure base to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances.”

  “Eh? Yoing to the Kumogakure base? Really?”

  Minato stopped writing, his face etched with hesitation and fusion.

  Instead of answering immediately, he pressed the emergency summon button on his desk. Within three seds, a Hyuga Byakugan-wielding Jonin appeared beside him.

  Minato spoke sternly, “firm Advisojo’s identity. I suspect he might be an enemy spy in disguise.”

  “Huh?” The Byakugan Jonin was startled but quickly activated his Byakugan to s Gojo Kaigetsu.

  He made his judgment with a single gnce. “Hokage-sama, the person before you is indeed Advisojo. There’s no doubt about it.”

  “Oh, is that so? You’re dismissed.”

  “As you and.”

  Gojo Kaigetsu experienced firsthand what it felt like to be on the receiving end of his own antics. “Fourth Hokage-sama! Is this how you treat people?”

  “Ah, sorry, sorry.” Minato apologized ftly, without aion. “It’s just that Kaigetsu-kun suddenly seems like a different person…”

  “e on, I’ve always been like this, haven’t I? Wherever sacrifice is needed, wherever dedication is required, there I, Gojo Kaigetsu, will be!” Gojo Kaigetsu decred righteously.

  “While it’s true that everyone has their specialty, even during the most critical moments of the Third Shinobi World War, Kaigetsu-kun never o foot otlefield.”

  Minato said pointedly. Then, he cleared his throat and posed himself as the Fourth Hokage should.

  “So? Why does Kaigetsu-kun want to go to the Kumogakure base this time?”

  “Theoretically, this mission is safe, and it’s stiputed that even in accept it. However, Kaigetsu-kun, you’re primarily a civilian official and haven’t undergone proper ninja training for a long time…”

  “The outside world, the shinobi world, is very dangerous. I’m worried you might die out there.” Minato spoke early, as if coaxing a seven ht-year-old child who insisted on being a ninja.

  “…It seems I’m truly uimated.”

  Gojo Kaigetsu slowly rose from his seat, flexing his right arm and pointing a thumb at his chest. “Don’t worry, I, your advisor, am the most… very strong!”

  Seeing Gojo Kaigetsu’s brimming fidence, Minato couldn’t help but twitch his lips and sigh in resignation.

  “I uand, Kaigetsu-kun. This is your ninja way, isn’t it?”

  “If you must go, please take my personal guard with you. They are Jonin with extensive bat experiend unwavering loyalty to the vilge. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with this esission.”

  Expeg a positive response from Gojo Kaigetsu, Minato was met with a firm refusal.

  “That won’t do!”

  “How a personal guard be strohan the person they’re proteg?! That would imply the protected individual is an insignifit nobody, destio be killed off by the plot.”

  Minato: “???”

  What strahings was he saying now?

  “Then, I’ll grant you special permission, Kaigetsu-kun. Form your own advisuard squad.” Minato promised, assuming he had iently bruised Gojo Kaigetsu’s fragile in ego.

  “That won’t do either! Only the Kage has the authority to form their personal guard. Any uards anizations, theoretically, belong to the vilge! Redundant formations are essentially bureaucratic baggage ied from the feudal lords.”

  Minato took a deep breath. “Then what do you want?!”

  “Oh, what I mean is, the ownership of the advisuard squad belongs to the vilge. I only have the right to use the squad for 24 hours.” Gojo Kaigetsu patted his chest. “Don’t worry, I will critically utilize the advisuard squad to gain a deeper uanding of the fws of bureaucracy.”

  “…”

  Minato opened his drawer, took out a Hokage token, and tossed it tojo Kaigetsu.

  Seeing the token was akin to seeing the Hokage himself. That was the rule!

  With this token, he had a free pass within the vilge. He could forcibly recruit any upstanding ninja he fancied into his guard squad.

  The vilge would cover all expenses reted to the recruitment.

  Gojo Kaigetsu gleefully pocketed the token and bowed to Minato. “The First Hokage passed away before he could even finish half of the vilge’s stru…”

  “The Anbu ninjas and the civilian officials are all part of a siity. Rewards and punishments should be applied equally. Whether it’s someone who has itted wrongdoing or someone who has acted with loyalty and virtue, they should all await my return, and I will assess their merits and demerits to demonstrate the Hokage’s impartiality and fairness in handling state affairs. There should be no favoritism…”

  “…I was inally a civilian from the Land of Flowers, hand-making soldier pills in my homend. I only wished to survive in these chaotic times, not seeking fame nition among the Five Great Nations.”

  “Stop your rambling madness!!”

  After a long while, once Gojo Kaigetsu had been scolded a away, Minato slumped bato his Hokage chair, letting out a long sigh of relief.

  He touched his blonde hair, feeling like he had missed something.

  “From what Kaigetsu-kun said… the members of his guard squad must be in, or even Genin?”

  “Would they even be capable of proteg him?”

  …

  ...

  When Gojo Kaigetsu visited the Uchiha again, he could clearly sense a ge imosphere.

  To be precise, it was the vilgers' attitude towards the Uchiha that had ged, sequently altering the atmosphere within the .

  Previously, a dark joke about the Uchiha circuted in Konoha:

  A Konoha vilger lost his messenger hawk. It was a hawk that could only curse, and if it fell into the hands of the Konoha Military Police Force, it would be disastrous. If this vilger wao protect himself, he had to make a public statement in Konoha: "I have lost a messenger hawk. Also, what it said has nothing to do with me."

  But now?

  Jokes were just jokes after all.

  Many Konoha vilgers even carried birdcages taining messenger hawks and strolled in front of the once forbidden Uchiha territory, teasing the Uchiha members with their birds.

  Gojo Kaigetsu also saw that many Uchiha children, who were not fit to be ninjas, were chased by their parents all over the streets, with one hand holding "Three Years in the Ninja Academy" and the other a kunai.

  The once oppressive and heavy Uchiha had pletely transformed.

  "Vibrant, so vibrant!"

  Gojo Kaigetsu couldn't help but sigh.

  After he ehe Uchiha territory, within tehs, Fugaku Uchiha, along with his fidants, came forward to greet him.

  His face was full of smiles. "Gojo-kun, why did it take you so long to visit our Uchiha ?"

  "Ah, official duties, you know. Ever since I received the Fourth Hokage's orders, I've been w and sighing day and night, fearing that I wouldn't be able to plete the entrusted tasks, which would damage the Fourth Hokage's wise reputation…"

  "Then, what brings Gojo-kuoday?" Fugaku asked tentatively.

  "About that…" Gojo Kaigetsu pulled out the Hokage's token from his pocket and showed it to Fugaku. "scription. You know about the Kirigakure's free a, right, Fugaku?"

  "The Fourth Hokage ordered me to form a special mobile unit uhe and of the advisor ao the front lio take trol of the entire operation."

  "scription? Kirigakure's free a?"

  Fugaku Uchiha breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was something big. "That's easy. I'll personally go to Kumogakure Vilge with you, Gojo-kun."

  "Ahem, the main reason is that I want to take your young Uchiha geion to the front lines for training, and I'll guide them."

  "That's good too. I'll gather our Uchiha ninjas of the right age."

  Fugaku Uchiha nodded uandingly. The Uchiha ninja's training focused more on heritance, and they were not short of money. Generally, they rarely participated in special operations targeting other vilges.

  However… Gojo-kun personally ing to the Uchiha to recruit people was undoubtedly a gesture of goodwill from the Fourth Hokage!

  The Uchiha was finally going to start eg with the Hokage's fa!

  Fugaku Uchiha was secretly moved.

  Soon, the eligible Uchiha ninjas were all gathered in the ter of the training ground.

  Gojo Kaigetsu gnced over and saw five-year-old Itachi and Izumi, as well as eight-year-old Shisui, among them.

  After briefly expining the situation, Fugaku hahe stage over to Gojo Kaigetsu.

  The young Uchiha ninjas below looked like curious children, staring at the legendary beor who raised within the .

  "Don't fet the advisor's kindness" had almost been imprinted on their minds like a steel seal.

  Gojo Kaigetsu had already set his sights on Itachi, Izumi, and Shisui, but he still preteo observe each child.

  "This operation is special. I will only choose the three most outstanding individuals who pass my test."

  "Gojo's rials, the first trial-Retrieve the Kunai from the Fire!" Gojo Kaigetsu's voice suddenly rose.

  He walked to a brazier, took out the kunai he always fiddled with like a walnut, aed the tip until it glowed red.

  In the sed, Gojo Kaigetsu moved at a speed too fast for ao read appeared in front of Shisui Uchiha.

  The red-hot kunai oi Shisui's eyes. If it moved an inch forward, Shisui's eyes would be ruined.

  "Being my bodyguard es at a price," Gojo Kaigetsu said cryptically. "Why didn't you dodge?"

  "Because I'm not afraid."

  "Why aren't you afraid?"

  Shisui blihe advisor… was truly a strange person.

  With his Sharingan activated, he could easily dodge su attack at this distance.

  But si was the advisor, Shisui still sidered Gojo Kaigetsu's face. "Not afraid… is not afraid."

  "Good ce! You, Uchiha Itachi, and the little girl o Itachi, the three of you have passed."

  "???"

  Immediately, a wave of dissatisfied shouts erupted.

  An Uchiha never yielded to anyone, even if the oppo was a fellow member.

  [Don't fet the kindness of Advisojo] had already been instilled in every new geion Uchiha, thanks to Fugaku's promotion and the tinuous influence of "Three Years in the Ninja Academy."

  Perhaps the current loyalty ranking in the hearts of the new geion Uchiha was: Fugaku first, Gojo sed, Hokage third…

  "Damn it, how this be!"

  "Am I weaker than Shi… Itachi? He's not healthy, Advisojo!"

  "I'm healthier!"

  "Ugh, I also want to repay Advisojo's kindness!"

  The vast training ground instantly became chaotic.

  The new geion Uchiha tried to attract Gojo Kaigetsu's attention in their own ways.

  Itachi Uchiha, whose name was called, looked bewildered. What did Shisui passing the test have to do with him?

  It felt like a soldier pill was created just for him to swallow.

  But the advisor's kindness had awakened his Sharingan. Itachi was still grateful to Gojo Kaigetsu and walked over without any obje.

  Izumi Uchiha looked around in disbelief, pointing at herself with her index finger. "Eh? Me?"

  "Yes, you. Don't dawdle, cough once!"

  Gojo Kaigetsu cpped his hands, satisfied with the situation oraining ground. Not just Itachi, but the entire new geion of Uchiha was evolving in a strange dire under his influence.

  "Alright, alright, don't think about repaying my kindness so quickly."

  "Remember, the advisor's kindness is endless."

  With that said, Gojo Kaigetsu swaggered out of the grounds, leading the three Uchiha children.

  Amidst deep fusion, the three were dragged onto the pirate ship heading towards the Kumogakure stronghold.

  Uhe setting sun, Fugaku Uchiha looked at their backs with emotion.

  "Two boys and one girl… It's just like the team assigs after graduating from the Ninja Academy. It's also an early ninja training for Itachi."

  "But just now, Gojo-kun seemed to say… bodyguards?"

  "Fet it, at least we're finally ected with the Hokage's fa."

  After leaving the Uchiha , Gojo Kaigetsu didn't rush to depart.

  Instead, he put on his mask, summoned his veteran actor troupe, and expined his pn before leaving.

  This included, but was not limited to, "materials for making anti-terfeit cards," "high-definition, unsored, refined images of Konoha's buildings," and other straems.

  After giving his instrus, he finally set off with the three children towards the Kumogakure stronghold.

  "Advisojo, who were those ordinary people just now…?"

  The three children had already packed their bags, filled with ies like spare clothes, campis, and high-calorie soldier pills…

  As ninjas, soldier pills should have been enough, but under Gojo Kaigetsu's strong insistehey also packed these seemingly irrelevant daily ies.

  "It's not appropriate to call me advisor now."

  "The three of you have been recruited into the Advisuard Squad, responsible for proteg Advisojo's safety." Gojo Kaigetsu said solemnly. "This operation is not about peting with ninjas from other vilges, but about poag people from Kirigakure."

  "Since we're poag, we naturally o do a good job with publicity."

  "The ninja approach is too crude. Professional matters should be handled by professionals."

  "Those people just now were my special propaganda team. They will arrive at the Kumogakure stronghold ahead of us, so we take our time on the road."

  "Now, Kumogakure, activate!"
