Land of Fire, Konoha Village.

The weather has become better since March. The warm sunshine of early spring always makes people feel sleepy.

The Hokage's residence.

There is a thick pile of documents on the table in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he is writing furiously. It is unknown whether he has read the contents of the documents carefully or not, and he signed his name one by one.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally seemed to feel a little tired. He threw the pen aside and took out a pipe from the drawer and lit it skillfully.

"I don't know what the situation is like at the Hidden Mist battlefield....."

After taking a deep breath, he finally felt his fatigue ease a little. After entering February, he had endless documents to review every day, and sometimes he even had to work overtime until one or two in the morning. In just one month, Hiruzen had become several times more haggard.���Not so good

"If we count the days, the news of the defeat will come soon. We must find a way to suppress the news of the defeat this time. Otherwise, the people in the village will be in a panic, and the accusations from the daimyo will be troublesome......."

Yes, Sarutobi Hiruzen had never thought that the battle in the southeast battlefield would be successful from the beginning.

It was impossible to have a good result by using a small army to fight against the regular 10,000-strong army of the Hidden Mist Village.

The reason why he dared to do this was because he was very confident that the Hidden Mist Village would never attack too deeply into the interior of the Land of Fire.

That would stretch their battle line too long and be filled with too much instability.

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking about the current situation on the battlefield of the Ninja Realm, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor outside the door, and it was getting faster and faster!

""Hokage-sama, Hokage-sama! Hoo, hoo, the battle report from the southeast battlefield has arrived! Great victory, great victory!" A jonin in white clothes rushed into Sarutobi Hiruzen's office door panting heavily, and even stumbled because of his excitement.

"Bei Liuhu, I have told you many times that when faced with a major event, you must stay sober and restrained. The battle report from the southeast battlefield has arrived? How many people have we lost?......Wait, you mean a great victory?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, teacher! On March 6, Uchiha Aki killed the Seven Ninja Swordsmen in the southeast battlefield under the Asami Gorge, then released a super-strong water escape to force back the Kirigakure army, and finally rushed to the front line, and finally......"

"In the end, what?"At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice began to tremble.

"In the end, a total of 7,000 Kirigakure ninjas were killed, and Kirigakure was seriously injured. They not only defended the Asami Gorge, but also recovered all the territory within the White River. One of them even chased them to the Bear Country, until he saw them fleeing on a boat with his own eyes."

"According to the report sent by Uchiha Qiu...if Konoha had not had no ships, he would have fought to the land of Water Country and let the Third Mizukage also have a taste of this sleepless night!"

Borihu finally calmed down his extremely excited heart and began to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen in detail about the battle report on the southeast front sent by Shen Qiu.

""Good, very good, very good! Uchiha Qiu, you have great potential as a young man!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said three"good" words in a row, which was enough to show his excitement. During this period of time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was under tremendous pressure. The repeated failures on the southeastern front cast a huge shadow on him as the Hokage. Not only the daimyo, but also many people inside the country began to be dissatisfied with him.

The prosperity created by thirteen years of hard work is not so easy to feel, but the instant departure of loved ones is so unforgettable that some people have begun to have huge complaints against him.

And Shen Qiu's letter of victory can be said to have come at the right time. Even though it has been a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen still can't hide his excitement.

"Not only that, teacher, they also gave Uchiha Aki a nickname."Hercules said to Sarutobi Hiruzen with a smile

""Oh, what nickname?" After hearing what Hiruzen Sarutobi said, he also became interested. There has always been a tradition of giving titles to strong people in the ninja world.

For example, the title of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was"The God of the Ninja World", which means that as a ninja, he was as strong as a god, and the title of the second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was"The Fastest Speed in the Ninja World", which came from the powerful space-time ninjutsu he created, the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.

As for the third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, he was"Doctor of Ninjutsu", because he was able to skillfully use thousands of ninjutsu of the five attributes of chakra.

There are also other titles like"The Strongest Spear" and"The Strongest Shield" inherited by successive generations of Raikage.

"It was the Silver Flash, because Uchiha Aki's speed was incredibly fast, just like a flash of light, and when he flashed by, he was always holding a silver-blue sword in his hand, so he was called the Silver Flash!"

"There are also some rumors that Uchiha Qiu is the illegitimate son of the Second Hokage, because he is just like the Second Hokage, both of them have powerful water escape ninjutsu and extremely fast speed."Sarutobi

Hiruzen couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, these guys are really rich in associations, how can Uchiha Qiu, a member of the Uchiha clan, be related to the Second Hokage?

"Don't pay attention to these messages, but, Bei Liuhu, I'll give you a task!"After reading the victory report in his hand again and again, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt more and more reluctant to let it go, and his impression of Shen Qiu also improved greatly.

"Spread the news that Uchiha Qiu defeated Kirigakure and slew the Seven Ninja Swordsmen on the southeastern front throughout the village, as well as his name Silver Flash. No, not only spread it throughout the village, but also spread it throughout the Land of Fire and the entire Ninja World!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen understood that with the entire Land of Fire and Konoha Village trapped in the shadow of war, Uchiha Qiu's southeastern victory could be regarded as a shot of adrenaline, which was injected into the heart of Konoha.

At this time, the simplest and crudest way is to create a hero so that the people can truly experience the power of the strong!

Sarutobi Hiruzen is the best at doing this kind of thing.

In fact, if there was no Shen Qiu, then this position in this time and space should belong to Hatake Sakumo, who defeated Sand Village on the western battlefield a year or two later.

In the Third Ninja World War, it was Namikaze Minato.

"I understand, teacher!"
