Slaughter Value: 229537
"There are actually extra rewards? The system is surprisingly generous this time!"
It was predictable that the end of the Ninja World War would greatly reduce his efficiency in acquiring Slaughter Value.
Less than 230,000 Slaughter Value was simply not enough to elevate his strength to the Super Kage level.
Before the Third Shinobi World War began, he would likely have to tighten his belt and live frugally.
As for the Wind Release Chakra, there wasn't much to say… the Wind Release Ninjutsu he had accumulated was enough for him for a while.
However… after permanent Chakra amplification and permanent physique amplification, there was now a mental power amplification.
Although he was unsure of the connection, he could clearly feel that his Mangekyo Sharingan's pupil power had increased again.
After an unknown period, when Fujiwara Tetsuya awoke from his contemplation… the main Konoha forces, which had been stationed in the northern Land of Rain, had already begun to break camp and move southeast.
Perhaps, for Sunagakure and Iwagakure, the two great Ninja Villages had certain demands on Amegakure due to strategic needs.
However… Konoha, and even the entire Land of Fire, had no need to covet such a barren place as the Land of Rain and Amegakure.
To put it bluntly, from an economic perspective alone, even the most impoverished towns in the Land of Fire surpassed ninety percent of the towns in the Land of Rain. This was the foundation of the Land of Fire… compared to the grand occasion when Fujiwara Tetsuya last returned to Konoha, this time it was even more so.
Because the news of Iwagakure's retreat and ceasefire had been sent to the capital by Hiruzen Sarutobi in advance… this time, in addition to many Konoha high-ranking officials and Shinobi Clans, numerous officials and dignitaries from the Land of Fire also greeted the frontline troops.
Facing these powerful figures who controlled the economy and political power of the Land of Fire, let alone a rising star like Fujiwara Tetsuya, even renowned strong individuals like Orochimaru and Jiraiya could only stand aside.
Because today's honor was destined to belong to Hiruzen Sarutobi; Orochimaru, Jiraiya… Fujiwara Tetsuya, including the thousands of Konoha Ninja behind them, were all destined to be mere backdrops.
"Hokage-sama, Lord Daimyo entrusted me to convey his greetings."
"Regarding Iwagakure, you have worked hard~ We, and Lord Daimyo, have always believed that Konoha, under your leadership, is capable of protecting all the interests of the Land of Fire and defeating any enemy who dares to invade the Land of Fire."
For these high-ranking officials and dignitaries, the classification of Ninja strength was mostly only vaguely understood.
Perhaps, within their scope of understanding, there were only the simple ranks of Genin, Chunin, Jonin… and the Kage of a village.
However, this did not prevent them from affirming Konoha's strength.
Kawanin Village, Kong Ninja Village, Amegakure, Kusagakure Village, Sunagakure, Iwagakure… to stand firm amidst these raging torrents until the very end, this demonstrated Hiruzen Sarutobi's ability… and Konoha's strength.
"Lord Da Shi, you exaggerate. Protecting the peace of the Land of Fire is Konoha's duty~"
"Speaking of which, Konoha was able to defeat Sunagakure and force Iwagakure to retreat… all of this was thanks to Lord Daimyo and the wise decisions and support of all you sirs."
"Without the support of Lord Daimyo and all you sirs, Konoha alone would not have been able to deal with so many enemies."
In the more than twenty years since becoming Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, as Hokage, had dealt with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and those dignitaries and high-ranking officials countless times, both openly and secretly.
Naturally, he was familiar with their temperaments, and in his response… Hiruzen Sarutobi smoothly engaged in some mutual flattery, which immediately made the dignitaries and high-ranking officials gathered around him burst into laughter.
"…"
Looking at the group of hypocritical "politicians" in front of him, Fujiwara Tetsuya shook his head and silently withdrew his gaze.
Even watching ants climb a tree would be more substantial than watching this group of hypocritical people flatter each other and engage in grand discourse.
But, this was politics… whether you liked it or not, once you reached a certain height, you would always have to interact with it.
It was so in his previous life, and in this life… it was also so.
This flattery, under the gaze of countless eyes, lasted for a full half an hour… In the end, it was Danzo who couldn't stand the intimacy between Hiruzen Sarutobi and the Land of Fire's officials, and he interjected to change the topic.
Only then were Fujiwara Tetsuya and his companions able to move their feet and step through Konoha's gate.
"Tetsuya, Kyoji… Aiko, Mako…"
Amidst a series of joyful cheers, Tanaka Jiro, Fujiwara Sachiko, and others pushed to the front of the crowd, waving their hands continuously at Fujiwara Tetsuya… and the children of the Fujiwara, Tanaka, Uesugi Three Clans at the back of the line.
The members of the Fujiwara, Tanaka, Uesugi Three Clans were finally going to reunite once again.
"Uncle Jiro, we… are back."
Looking at his clan members, Fujiwara Tetsuya took a deep breath and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.
The war had claimed the lives of Fujiwara Tomomi, Uesugi Kazuharu… and nine others, but it had also allowed children like Fujiwara Aiko, Uesugi Mako, Tanaka Miyako, Uesugi Yoshimi, Tanaka Dan, Fujiwara Nanamiya, Fujiwara Nobunaga, and Uesugi Tsuma to grow significantly.
This growth meant that the Fujiwara, Tanaka, Uesugi Three Clans… were about to usher in a true revival.
