Promotion, Kiss!

"Asakura Hao, now I as the Third Hokage of Konoha..."

"Officially promote you to Jonin and the captain of Konoha's Medical Class!"

In the huge Hokage office, looking at the calm dark-haired 'teen' in front of him, the Third Hokage announced with a straight face.

In addition to him, there is also Shimura Danzo in the office, and the other two Konoha high-level elders Homura and Kohara were also at the scene.

"Medical leader?!"

As soon as the words of the Third Hokage fell, there was a trace of surprise on Hao's face.

He didn't expect that that old geezer valued himself so much that he not only promoted him to Jonin, but also made him the leader of Konoha's medical class!

This is not an ordinary position. At least in the system of Konoha, it is on the same level as the commander of the Police force, Uchiha Fugaku, the patriarch of the Uchiha clan. It is a position with great power and will definitely be eligible to enter the highest decision-making level of Konoha in the future.

Does Sarutobi-sensei want to train and support me to be one of the future pillars of the village, even Hokage..?

Unfortunately, I may not be what you want... Feeling the intentions of the Third Hokage for himself, Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his mind.

"Nine-year-old Jonin..."

"Although it's in wartime, it's still crazy."

Hearing the decision made by the Third Hokage, Koharu next to him couldn't help but mutter.

You must know, even Hatake Kakashi, who is known as a world class genius, did not become Jonin until he was 12 years old, but when it comes to Hao, he directly did it 3 years earlier.

"Your adoptive mother Yakushi Nono used to be the captain of the medical class..."

"Now I have given her torch to you. I hope you will live up to our expectations of you."

Looking at Hao who became the dual identity of Jonin and Konoha's Medical team leader at the age of nine, Homura also sighed.

In the face of the decision of the Third Hokage, it is impossible for the three elders of Konoha to object, because whether in terms of strength or the contribution of the medical tag, Hao made them unable to find any room for rebuttal.

Only Danzo, who sat silently in the corner, looked at Hao, his eyes becoming more and more fearful.

As previously expected, as the strength and status of Hao rises rapidly, Danzo felt an invisible pressure.

Now his ninjas who always monitor the Konoha Orphanage can not only not attack those children, but also supervise them in turn!

Otherwise, in case something happens to those children, Hao will definitely first look at him and his roots.

"Since the medical tags were put on the battlefield, the ninja casualty rate on the front line has plummeted."

"Hao, you have indeed made an outstanding contribution to Konoha this time."

After promoting Hao to Jonin and the leader of Konoha's medical team, he looked at Hao in front of him.

The Third Hokage's expectations for him are getting higher and higher.

"And Minato on the front line also successfully cut off Iwa's supply. This time we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

"But Iwa and Kumo are still investing more troops on the battlefield."

But soon, the Third Hokage's voice turned around and directly issued a new task order to Hao, "So Hao, go back now and prepare. Lead the medical class to support the front-line ninjas immediately tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

In the face of the Hokage's orders, Hao did not hesitate to do so.

He glanced at Danzo next to him, and then disappeared in place in an instant.

"This war has been delayed long enough..."

"The years of war have caused heavy losses to all five major countries, and it's time to end this."

After Hao left, the huge Hokage office fell into silence.

Looking at the evening sky of Konoha outside the window, the Third Hokage sighed.

...

"Now that you have come here... Why don't you go in and have a look?"

The sun set, and the whole sky of Konoha was dyed red by the sunset at dusk.

Hao was standing on a highland, looking at the wooden house of the orphanage in the distance in front of him, and a gentle voice behind him touched his heart.

He doesn't have to look back, Hao's Observation Haki can detect the person behind him. Long dark curly hair, bright red eyes and an angelic face, it's Kurenai Yuhi that he hasn't seen for some time.

"I'm leaving tomorrow..."

"I have to say goodbye to them when I go there. It's like we can't ever see each other again."

He didn't look up at the sunset shining on him, and Hao's eyes darked slightly.

Since Nono was sent to Iwagakure on a mission, he has rarely returned to the orphanage.

"Speaking of this..."

"I've heard that Hao, are you really going to be sent to the front lines?"

Speaking of this, Kurenai couldn't help but be a little flustered.

Although she has never experienced war herself, as a ninja, she can more or less understand the cruelty of the battlefield.

Seeing that the boy she loves was about to be sent to the battlefield at such a young age, how could she calm down?

"As ninjas, this is our fate."

"Don't worry, Kurenai, I will take care of myself."

Withdrawing his eyes, he looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and Hao opened his mouth to comfort her, "And this time I just led the medical ninja to the front line to do some support work. There should be no great danger.."

"But this task may take a long time..."

However, before Hao finished his words, a fragrant wind floated in front of him, and his lips were imprinted by her two crimson lips.

Actually... kissed?

Feeling the electric like shock coming from his lips, he opened his eyes wide in astonishment.

Although she just kissed his lips gently, Kurenai's bold behaviour still left his brain blank.

It was unknown how long it took, and the two, with rapid heartbeats in their chests, finally separated.

"You must come back safely..."

"No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you here."

Feeling the surprised eyes of her love, Kurenai's cheeks were flushed and her heart beat faster, but her eyes were still firm and filled with love.

"Kurenai..."

After reading the girl's eyes, Hao couldn't help but feel hot.

Since he traveled to this world, he has never thought about who he would have emotional intersections with.

But now it seems that in addition to Nono and his friends in the orphanage, in this small village, he still seems to have people and things to care about...

Looking at the girl in front of him, time seemed to be frozen at this moment.

When the sunset falls to the west, with its light shining on them, they were looking like a golden couple.

...

The next morning, at the gate of Konoha Ninja Village.

Hao, who has been promoted to Jonin and the head of Medical Class, lined up more than 20 medical ninjas behind him.

"Are you ready?"

Seeing that all the ninjas had arrived, Hao shouted.

"We are ready!!"

Hearing Hao's words, more than 20 ninjas behind him answered in unison.

Although he is surprisingly young, they did not object to the fact that Hao became the leader of the medical class.

Because whether it is super-level medical ninjutsu or the epoch-making creation such as the medical tag, Hao has completely subdued this group of medical ninjas.

"Okay, let's go!"
