Chapter 286 The Great Name Arrives

"Attention all squads, His Majesty the Daimyo's honor guard is expected to arrive at the main gate of Konoha in fifteen minutes."

"The alert level along the route has been raised to the highest level, and people from outside the village who have not registered are not allowed to enter."

Fugaku Uchiha stood on the observation deck on the top floor of the Konoha Grand Hotel, issuing orders into the walkie-talkie.

His black police uniform was ironed perfectly, without a single wrinkle, and the red and white fan-shaped emblem on the back was particularly eye-catching in the sunlight.

Today, Fugaku exuded the mature and composed aura of a married man to the fullest, making him appear even more dignified.

"Received, Captain Fugaku. Blocks one through five are completely cleared. The Hyuga clan's Byakugan is conducting a thorough cross-scan." The efficient reply from Uchiha Yatsuho came through the walkie-talkie.

There was a severe shortage of manpower, and even the head of the criminal investigation department was brought in to provide support.

"very good."

Fugaku put down the walkie-talkie and turned to look at Nishikawa Toru, who was fixing his hair.

"You're so carefree, leaving all the security pressure to the police department while you bask in your own glory."

"Senior, how can this be called being vain? This is called being mindful of Konoha's diplomatic image."

Nishikawa Tetsu pushed down a stray strand of unruly black hair, turned around, and showed Fugaku his well-tailored, high-end tuxedo.

"Today's main characters are the Daimyo and the ministers who control the Land of Fire's treasury."

"As the Vice Minister of Finance and Vice President of the Science Research Institute of Konoha, I will naturally greet our God of Wealth with the utmost enthusiasm."

"Besides, security is one of your police department's strengths, so the more capable you are, the more work you should do."

"Hmph, you're full of twisted logic." Fugaku snorted, but wasn't angry. "Let's go."

……

Main gate of Konoha Village.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, stood quietly in front of the door, wearing a white divine robe and a Hokage hat, his hands folded in front of him.

Behind him was an all-star lineup of Konoha's top management.

The two advisors, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, stood on either side; Jiraiya, though still sporting his wild white hair, had changed into clean clothes, a rare occurrence, and Orochimaru had also changed out of his white coat.

Even Tsunade was forcibly dragged over by the Third Hokage, and now she's standing with her arms crossed, her face clearly showing that she wants to go for a drink.

Surrounding them were the elite Anbu members standing ramrod straight, as well as the Jonin squad members led by Minato Namikaze.

"They're here."

With a whisper from Minato Namikaze, at the edge of the horizon, huge banners embroidered with the "fire" emblem fluttered in the wind.

The daimyo's honor guard, like a giant golden-red dragon, sailed majestically towards Konoha.

At the head of the procession were hundreds of guards from the daimyo's mansion, all clad in fine armor, while in the middle were more than a dozen lavishly decorated carriages.

Especially the giant carriage in the very center, drawn by four pure white horses, its carriage inlaid with gold and jewels, so dazzling in the sunlight that it was hard to open one's eyes.

"Welcome, Your Excellency, to Konoha."

When the carriage came to a stop in front of Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped forward, bowed slightly, and gave the highest ruler of the Land of Fire ample respect.

"Hahaha! Hiruzen, you're still as robust as ever!"

The carriage door opened, and the daimyo of the Land of Fire stepped out, supported by two attendants. He was holding an exquisite folding fan, his face glowing, clearly in a very good mood.

The daimyo's gaze bypassed the Third Hokage and landed directly on Nishikawa Tetsu at the back of the crowd, his eyes immediately lighting up.

"Vice Minister Nishikawa, I've missed you so much! The power grid group you spearheaded is now the darling of the entire Daming Prefecture."

Upon hearing this, several high-ranking officials from the Land of Fire who had disembarked behind the daimyo nodded in agreement. Indeed, the capital's tax revenue was much higher than usual.

"Yes, yes, Lord Nishikawa's work is truly astonishing."

Seeing the highest ruling class of the Land of Fire being so enthusiastic towards a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, even with a hint of familiarity in their attitude, Tsunade couldn't help but marvel.

"What kind of spell did that brat cast on them in the capital?" Tsunade muttered in a low voice.

"That's the allure of money," Orochimaru remarked quipped from the side.

"You flatter me, Your Excellency. It is all for the prosperity of the Land of Fire." Nishikawa Tetsu stepped forward, revealing a perfectly humbly and sincerely smiling smile.

"Lord Hokage, Your Excellency Daimyo must be tired from your journey. Why don't we head to the new Konoha district first? The hospitality there will certainly not disappoint you. Lord Hokage has already made all the necessary arrangements."

"Oh? This is the new district you told me about in the capital?" The daimyo closed his folding fan, his interest piqued. "Come on, take me to see it!"

The honor guard set off again, but at Nishikawa Tetsu's suggestion, the daimyo and several key ministers did not return to their carriages, but instead boarded the latest sightseeing vehicle developed by the Konoha Academy of Sciences.

This is an open-top electric sightseeing vehicle that runs extremely smoothly and quietly.

The moment the convoy passed through the old town and officially entered the new center of Konoha, the entire Daimyo delegation seemed to hold their breath.

"This...this is Konoha?!"

A finance minister with a mustache suddenly stood up from his seat and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

What comes into view is no longer those traditional low-rise wooden row buildings.

The wide asphalt road has eight lanes in both directions, and on both sides of the street, glass curtain wall buildings more than ten stories high soar into the clouds, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds in a dreamlike way.

He couldn't say he knew everything about Konoha, but he had been there a few times, the most recent being just half a year ago.

The changes are tremendous!
