The Hokage Ryos Path
Chapter 80: Return to Konoha

“One full month? Why?" Since the war began, this was the first time someone had actually asked Sakumo for leave. If the reason is personal, the request may be disputed.

“Sakumo san, this is Inochi Onii-san's wedding! Here, this is a roll from the family.”

Ryo trusts Sakumo and nothing on the scroll is worth hiding for the sake of the clan. He did not hesitate to give it to her.

Sakumo checked the scroll, and then said: “Fifteen days, no more than one day! With your speed, even 10 days is enough for you to go to Konoha and return to the camp. You are one of the main commanders on the battlefield. How dare you ask for a full month?”

“Sakumo san, 15 days is too little! Can't you give me at least two more days?”

Ryo knew very well that he was one of the commanders, and that he did ask for a long vacation, but over a year and a half of fighting made him feel too tired.

The cruelty of war became his wildest imagination. If he did not have a strong heart due to his years as a surgeon in his past life, he would be devastated by it.

Therefore, she uses Inoichi's marriage as an excuse to return to Konoha and see her mother and Kushina, relieving some of the tension she has accumulated.

“Hah, what are you doing here boy? Is there something going on the Sand side?” Jiraya asked as she entered.

“This has nothing to do with war. It's about Rio. He asked for a month off to return to Konoha, so I called you to discuss it.” Sakumo said.

“And what's the problem? Let him go! Now the battlefield was in a very stable state, with no major movements being made by any camp. And in case of emergency, I can bring it here via Myoboku Mountain!”

Hearing Jiraya, Sakumo loosened a little. So Ryo went on and said: "Sakumo san, if there's a problem, I promise I'll be here."

Hearing the two, and not the type of person who likes to argue, Sakumo could only nod.

Before Ryo left, Sakumo handed him a scroll to send to the 3rd Hokage.

On the way to the village, the two Yamanaka were very fast. The journey from the camp to Konoha will take an average of four days, but both arrive home in three days.

Looking back at Konoha, Ryo's heart was moved. He does not love the village like Naruto. After all he is not a native of Konoha, and his only beloved country is China from his past world.

However, Ryo does have a lot of ties to this village. His mother Chinse, his Kushina Sensei, his beloved Yugao Uzuki, Minato, Kakashi team, his entire clan…

Ryo has spent most of his past life alone. He was unwilling to let go of the warmth he found in this world.

He did not want to be Hokage. All he wanted was to take care of the lives of the people who were most important to him.

He wanted to protect them from the darkness hidden in the village, from Pain, from Madara, from Kaguya…

Protecting his relationship with Konoha is what drove him to become stronger and stronger to finally stand on top of the world.

Ryo took a deep breath and walked over to Konoha with Ryoko. At the entrance, the gatekeeper was still an Uchiha at that moment.

During the war, control at the gates was much tighter than usual. But still, the guard did his job efficiently. Both were released soon after it was confirmed that they were Yamanaka.

“Ne san, you have to go back to the tribe. I will go to Hokage 1 to send Sakumo san.” scrolls Ryo said to Ryoko as they entered.

"Okay, then I'm leaving!" Ryoko waves at Ryo as he leaves.

This was not Ryo's first time to the Hokage's office. The last time he was here, his perception ability was too bad. He did not notice how many Anbu Ninja were hidden around the office and thought only the two of them were in front.

Realizing that there were so many Anbus, Ryo did not understand how Naruto could obtain the Seal Scroll in Manga.

The two guards in front were still ordinary ones, but they had not met him for a long time. They did not recognize him immediately. So only after he confirmed his identity to them did they let him pass.

“Tok Tok”

"Lake in!"

Ryo pushed the door open and saw the third person glancing at him with a smile.

"Hokage Sama, Sakumo san told me to deliver this to you."

Ryo looked around the place with his spiritual power. Unlike the outside office, there were only three Anbu officers. One is the Kage quasi-level, and the other two are the Ninja Sensor.

“Ryo, have you ever met Chiyo?” The 3rd interrupted Ryo's "inquiry.

“Yes Hokage Same.”

"And?"

"That's a tie." Ryo replied calmly, as if it was something trivial. The 3rd, on the other hand, laughed out loud.

“Oke okay Ryo, it seems I underestimated you with Tokubetsu Jonin!” promotion Say 3 while smiling.

“Hokage is the same, I'm too young, and I lack experience. I am not qualified for more than that. Tokubetsu Jonin is enough.”

The 3rd shook his head. He can get himself to retain the quasi Kage at Jonin's Tokubetsu rank. But Ryo must have reached Kage.” level

Based on the information he had received earlier, the 3rd thought that Ryo was just a quasi Kage. But today, Sakumo's scroll gave him a big surprise. The only thing that mentions is that Ryo is able to face Chiyo.

Ryo was able to fight on par with Chiyo mainly relying on her Ice Lightning Chakra mode. In the experience of fighting, there was a huge gap between him and someone who was truly Kage level. But still, Ryo's technique was able to cover that gap.

“Ryo, go to the training ground! I'd like to see a demonstration of your strength. ” The 3rd is eager to witness the results of Ryo's evolution.

“Yes Hokage Same.”

At the 7th training ground, Ryo's opponent was not his 3rd self, but the pseudo Kage Anbu who was in the office.

"Start!" The 3rd issued an order to start the fight, and Anbu immediately attacked Ryo.

This opponent was extremely strong, comparable to the Shalun of the Sand. But Ryo is no longer the ninja he was a year ago.

He entered the Ice Lightning Chakra mode, disappearing directly from his opponent's sight. Anbu felt her neck cold, as a crystal-clear Ice Surgical Knife was placed on it.

"I lost!" Anbu was very quick to admit defeat, because Ryo, as the speed type, was the hardest to fight.

“Ryo Yamanaka, I hereby raise your rank to Jonin Konoha!”

Seeing how Ryo immediately handled the strongest Anbu around, along with what was mentioned in the scroll, the 3rd promoted Ryo directly to Jonin's rank!
