Chapter 353 A Fei: Can I switch to your job, Lord Hokage?

"Ahhh! He's angry. That's scary!"

Ah Fei took Maru's hand and ran, quickly hiding behind Payne, sticking his head out and protecting Payne in front of him.

He pointed at Quan and said in a low voice but just loud enough for Quan to hear:

"Chief! Protect me! That red-eye disease's eyes are so scary, so terrifying, they want to kill Ah Fei!"

While Ah Fei was talking, he did not forget to lift a corner of his mask and secretly eat the meatball.

This scene made Quan grit his teeth.

Xiaonan glanced at Ah Fei helplessly and said:

"Stop being weird, Afei, this is Konoha."

Ah Fei said indifferently: "What's wrong with Konoha? Konoha has a good relationship with our Akatsuki organization. We are a brotherly country."

Itachi and Shisui saw that Afei was a fun-loving person, so they didn't pay much attention to his antics.

The two of them just watched Ah Fei silently.

As for what A Fei said about Izumi having a crush on Itachi, Itachi didn't take it seriously, or he chose to ignore it.

Itachi doesn't know how to express love.

Suddenly, two familiar figures walked in.

It's Haneda and Kakashi.

The Fire Nation's transportation system had already marked the whereabouts of Pain and his companions, and Haneda originally wanted to meet them at the train station.

But there were too many people over there, so the plan was stranded and they were going to meet them at the Guest House and the Hokage Building.

But what was unexpected was that Pain did not follow the usual route, but took the subway to the Uchiha clan's territory.

"Mr. Payne."

Haneda "inadvertently" glanced at A Fei and walked quickly to Pain.

Kakashi beside him was not as reserved as Haneda. He looked at Afei, his former best friend Obito, openly.

Today, Obito was wearing a hood on his head, a white mask on his face, and an Akatsuki uniform.

His overall appearance is somewhat similar to Obito's previous look, but more like Zetsu.

Including the exaggerated behavior, they seem to be cast in the same mold.

Kakashi had a very sharp eye and he noticed that there was a syrup-like liquid on Obito's uniform that had not yet solidified.

Looking at the wooden stick in his hand, you can tell that Obito has just eaten a meatball.

"Obito still likes sweets as before... I remember he especially likes red bean cakes..."

Kakashi thought secretly.

At this time, when Pein saw Haneda and Kakashi coming over, he immediately stood up and walked over to them quickly:

"Haneda, long time no see!"

"I originally wanted to go to the Hokage Building first, but A Fei insisted on getting off here, so I just took a rest here."

"You don't have anything to do this morning, do you?"

Haneda looked at Ah Fei with amusement, but Ah Fei showed no mercy to Haneda and glared back at him.

Haneda smiled and said, "Nothing. I heard from the police team that you were here, so I came to check it out."

"This is Afei, right? The new member of Akatsuki who will replace Sasori."

Pein nodded and said, "Ze introduced him to the Akatsuki organization half a month ago. I heard that he can use Wood Release."

Pain hinted that Ah Fei was Madara's man, and also gave his own guess that he was related to Zetsu.

Haneda smiled. He didn't expect that Obito's outfit could fool Pain.

He secretly used Kagura's mind's eye to check Obito's chakra, which was completely different from before.

The chakra on Obito's body is full of a strange smell, which is similar to that of White Zetsu, but not exactly the same.

Haneda estimated that Obito used White Zetsu's possession to conceal his own chakra, and at the same time, he created a small account of Ah Fei through his clone.

The tuba and trumpet appeared at the same time, with two completely different voices and personalities, making Payne mistakenly think they were two different people.

After all, Ah Fei can be replaced by the possessed White Zetsu.

Whenever the big one is needed to appear, Obito and the small one, that is, White Zetsu, can appear together.

"Wood Release?" Haneda looked at Obito in surprise.

Obito introduced it generously:

"Hello! My name is A Fei, and I'm a high school girl who has a crush on the Hokage! Are you interested..."

Ah Fei shyly placed his finger on the mouth of the mask, and as if mustering up enough courage, he said loudly:

"Are you interested in a sweet romance?"

The corner of Haneda's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand and said:

"A Fei, your Adam's apple is showing. You should find a girl you like and date her."

"There is a girl behind every boy watching him."

Ah Fei was too embarrassed to pull the Akatsuki uniform over his neck, and laughed a few times, saying:

"Ahahaha, Hokage-sama really understands love~"

Ah Fei paused here, and said in a lower tone:

"Yeah, there's a girl behind every boy watching."

Ah Fei changed his tone and pointed at Quan who was standing obediently behind Itachi and said:

"Just like that girl with the pink eye, hehe! It's a pity that she's a female ninja. She might die while doing a mission someday!"

Just as Haneda was about to say something, Kakashi, who had been silent for a long time, interrupted:

"That might have been the case ten years ago, but Konoha now doesn't need ordinary ninjas to do those dangerous missions."

"Uchiha Izumi works in the police force. He is only responsible for patrolling and maintaining public order. It is safe and stable."

"Most of Konoha's ninjas are now engaged in this kind of stable and safe work."

"Those dangerous missions are now handed over to the Anbu to handle."

"The ANBU are all ninjas who are determined to die."

Ah Fei moved the mask, just revealing his lips that seemed to be smiling, and pointed them at Kakashi.

At this time, Pain and Konan were secretly observing Ah Fei. Pain's Rinnegan saw that Ah Fei's skin was very similar to White Zetsu.

Even his lips were pale, and it was hard to discern the meaning of Ah Fei's smile.

But Kakashi clearly saw Obito's sarcasm.

He opened his mouth, wanted to say something, hesitated for a few seconds, and closed his mouth silently.

No matter how you whitewash the present, the past is past and cannot be changed.

At this time, Haneda said:

"Konoha's focus is now mainly on people's livelihood, such as the police team maintaining law and order, and the hospital saving lives..."

"Police team members, medical ninjas, ninja teachers, and seal squad members, all of these clerical jobs are paid directly by Konoha."

"Konoha currently does not accept any missions from other countries except its allies, and most of the domestic missions are related to construction."

"Only the Anbu are walking on the edge of a knife as before, but the Anbu members only account for a few tenths of a percent."

"Is that so..." Ah Fei lowered his head and pretended to be in deep thought. Suddenly, he seemed to have a flash of inspiration and understood everything. He stretched out his index finger and said,

"It's great to be a ninja in Konoha. You can even get paid. That's great!"

"I'm not as stingy as the leader. I can only get a little money by completing tasks..."

Ah Fei said this, wiping away his non-existent tears through his white mask:

"Wow, wow, Ah Fei is being exploited so badly!"

Suddenly, Ah Fei covered his mouth and whispered:

"Can I switch to your place, Hokage-sama?"
