Chapter 166 - Chapter 166: Advisory Council

The moment Yuuki became Hokage, it wasn't just his Golden Finger that became active.

Mount Myōboku.

The ancient Gamamaru, sitting in his large chair, suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

"What did I just see? Hmm ~ I can't remember. Where's little Jiraiya?"

"Great Toad Sage, what did you say?"

Fukasaku looked at the awakened Gamamaru muttering something and asked.

But at this time, Gamamaru had once again fallen into a deep sleep.

Pure Land.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the old man who could maintain his self-awareness in the Pure Land, suddenly opened his eyes.

He seemed to sense something, and after a careful investigation, he found that his mother's seal had not changed at all. Then he sensed his son's Chakra, which was still normal.

He closed his eyes again.

Meanwhile, in the Hokage Office, Yuuki looked at the new template in his mind and, despite his initial reluctance, loaded the template onto himself.

Ugly is ugly, as long as it's powerful!

And Yuuki's new template character, as expected, was still a fire-type template.

[Template Character: Surtur]

[Accompanying Item: twilight sword (The twilight sword is enchanted with magic, capable of manipulating mysterious energy, and can break through dimensional barriers)]

Yuuki naturally knew who Surtur was. A Fire Giant, said to be a demon or a natural embodiment because of his immortal characteristics.

To Yuuki, it made no difference; ugliness was the greatest sin!

It is said that he possesses the power of a thousand scorching suns, but Yuuki expressed doubt about this.

As the only villain who achieved his goal without dying, Surtur's strength was decent. He single-handedly brought about Ragnarök and destroyed Asgard.

Asgard and Earth are both among the Nine Realms, known as the 'Boundless Realm.' It's hard to say which is larger than Earth, but it certainly isn't much smaller.

Despite his disdain, the template was quite strong. After loading the template onto himself, Yuuki still began to carefully study the new template!

He found that only two abilities were useful to Yuuki.

One was the ability to freely control the size of his body. If he wanted, Yuuki could become larger than the entire Ninja World. Of course, Yuuki wouldn't do that; wouldn't that just let the entire Ninja World see his ugliness?

The second was immortality. Simply put, Yuuki couldn't die. Orochimaru's lifelong pursuit, Yuuki could now achieve.

Barring any surprises, this was the last template, as Yuuki truly hadn't found any other sections of the system!

But an unexpected event still occurred.

Before Yuuki could carefully experience the template's strength, the once dormant Golden Finger became active again.

[Obtained a template that surpasses world limits. Eternal Fire has been stored in your inventory. Please complete the corresponding mission to unlock the Eternal Fire!]

What the hell!?

You're deliberately making things difficult for me, aren't you!

Yuuki's consciousness once again sank into his mind, wandering around.

By the time Mitsuba woke him up, Yuuki found that it was already midnight!

Yuuki still hadn't found any inventory, and he hadn't even seen a ghost of a mission!

A Surtur without the Eternal Fire was as weak as Thanos without the Infinity Gauntlet; he was nothing but tough skin and thick flesh!

What use was this template? It was ugly and weak!

Didn't you see Yuuki always sneaking around when using Hellfire? It's because Ghost Rider is ugly!

Yuuki thought and thought, and the only way to barely cover this thing was to put on a Susanoo!

At the same time, Yuuki was also very confused. It seemed he really did have a system.

But what about the other parts? Did they get lost during the Crossing?

Where am I supposed to find the Eternal Fire!

Yuuki completely lost his patience. Forget it, let's just pretend this template doesn't exist. Anyway, I'm strong enough.

He was already invincible in the Ninja World!

If it's not there, it's not there. I, Uchiha Yuuki, owe everything I have today to my own efforts. While the Golden Finger did play a small role, it wasn't much!

Finally, Yuuki suppressed this matter in his heart and went home to sleep.

Starting today, he was the Hokage!

By the time he got home, it was already past one in the morning of the next day.

The lights in the house were still on.

Mina and Takuma were busy with their own things to pass the time. After seeing Yuuki return, they didn't say anything, just tidied up and prepared to go to bed.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Yuuki's slight depression from drawing a useless template slowly began to fade.

It was now long past the Uchiha clan massacre in the original story. The Uchiha clan still existed and was growing stronger.

The people he cared about also cared about him.

My life is already complete, why think so much!

Yuuki fantasized that a few years later, after Naruto and Sasuke grew up, he would hand over Konoha and the Military Police Force to them to mess around with, and he would enjoy a wonderful retirement.

It would be so comfortable to go fishing with Shisui every day then, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

"Ew ~ Brother, you're smiling so disgustingly!"

Yuuki then noticed that Natsuri was also by Mina's leg. She must have fallen asleep waiting for him and just woke up.

"Natsuri, you should call me Hokage-sama!"

"Immature!"

Mina, on the side, said to the two with a smile.

"Yuuki, don't bully Natsuri!"

"And Natsuri, don't be jealous of your brother!"

In just a few words, the gloom in Yuuki's heart had long disappeared.

Life in the Ninja World is truly wonderful!

Over the next few days, Yuuki's time was occupied by a bunch of tailors and sculptors.

And the entire Konoha was in a frenzy of celebration.

It was only spring, and there were still a few months until the Hanabi Festival.

But in Konoha, once night fell, fireworks continuously bloomed in the night sky.

It also indirectly reflected that the Konoha people were much richer than before.

Well, of course, the richest was still Yuuki.

After all, even Konoha's fireworks factory was an Uchiha industry.

After the discounts and promotions these past few days, business was booming!

Human joys and sorrows are not always shared. Some people, upon seeing and hearing the lively and festive fireworks, only found them dazzling and noisy.

In a graceful and stylish residence in Konoha.

An old man and an old woman looked at each other in silence.

It was Hiruzen Sarutobi and Utatane Koharu.

After Yuuki completed the handover, he directly dismissed all of Utatane Koharu's positions, leaving her only as an Advisor.

He arranged for her and Hiruzen Sarutobi to live in this place.

As for returning to their family's land?

How could that be!

Although retired, they were still Konoha Ninja and still had to contribute to Konoha.

The positions Yuuki prepared for them were still Konoha Advisors!

The power of an Advisor? Uh, none!

Advisors themselves had no power unless they held other positions.

Their duty was simple: to stay in the Council Hall and await the Hokage's summons at any time!

Don't say Yuuki treated them unfairly. Look at this courtyard, look at these green plants, look at this rockery and flowing water.

Yuuki, now the dignified Hokage and also the Head of the Military Police Force, didn't even live as well as these two old folks!

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Utatane Koharu didn't cause any trouble.

As the losing side in the struggle, they must have been well-prepared mentally.

Yuuki restricted their freedom, preventing them from returning home, but he didn't actually imprison them.

If they couldn't go home, they could call their family to live with them. After all, the residence was so large.

For example, the bearded man standing behind Hiruzen Sarutobi at this time was Asuma, who had returned to Konoha.

Of course, the other person was a bit more intriguing: Uchiha Itachi!
