Naruto: After traveling through time, I became the disciple of the first generation

He felt something was wrong. It was already this time of the day, so why hadn't anyone come yet? Where was Minato? Could it be that he had overslept?

About ten minutes later, a girl opened the door and said, "Oh, Master Lan, you are here. It took me so long to find you. Come with me."

Lan was taken away by her in a daze and brought to a room next door.

As soon as I entered, I saw the pile of tables creaking under the weight.

The entire wooden table looked precarious.

"Come on, don't just stand there. Come and watch me handle it first, and then you can do it yourself. They are just some chores. Even if you make mistakes accidentally, it won't be a big problem."

Lan never expected that the workload on the first day would be so staggering. Was he trying to take his life?

Lan felt like crying but had no tears left. Was it too late to back out now?

"Why don't you come and observe? Otherwise, how will you proceed to the next step?"

Lan came back to his senses and nodded quickly: "Okay! I'll be right there!"

"Excuse me, are you the Hokage's secretary? Will I learn from you from now on?"

The girl smiled and nodded: "Yes, I will take care of all the trivial matters of Konoha Village, and the Hokage will be responsible for making decisions on major matters."

"Look, Konoha Village is so big, and the surrounding villages and towns have to be included in our management. How can we leave it all to Lord Minato?"

"The master's energy is limited. He has to shoulder the responsibility of protecting Konoha Village, so these small matters will be shared by me, the secretary."

Lan felt a little respect for the secretary when he saw that there was no complaint on his face.

But this doesn't make sense? To put it bluntly, the ninja world is now dominated by Konoha Village, which has absolute power.

Who dares to invade Konoha Village? With Master Qufeng's strength, he must have noticed it as soon as he arrived outside Konoha Village.

Coming here to cause trouble is tantamount to seeking death.

When the secretary heard what he said, he quickly shook his head with a serious look on his face.

"No, no, no, Minato-sama, you must always remain vigilant. No one knows when danger will strike."

"Since the last time Konoha Village was attacked by a Six Paths-level enemy, Minato-sama has often mentioned this to us. We still have many enemies, but they have not arrived yet."

"According to Master Qufeng, they will arrive sooner or later, maybe tomorrow or decades later, so we must always be vigilant."

Lan was a little surprised. Looking at the serious look on the secretary's face, it didn't seem like he was lying.

"Is it really that scary? Even if it's a Six Paths-level enemy, Master Qufeng probably won't be afraid, right? After all, he's already at the Six Paths level."

"And I think Lord Zhili is already at the Sixth Path level. With such a high combat power, is it necessary to be so cautious?"

The secretary shook his head: "Your Excellency has your reasons for making this decision. Konoha Village has been attacked before. For the safety of the villagers, this is necessary."

Seeing her like this, Lan didn't continue arguing. Lord Qufeng must have his own reasons for doing this.

It’s just that Lan’s current knowledge is limited and he can’t understand it.

But from these discussions, he also sensed something was wrong. Konoha Village seemed to be wary of the arrival of a very powerful enemy.

Is it necessary for the Whirlpool Country to be on guard as well? Even Konoha Village is somewhat cautious of the enemy, so the Whirlpool Country will definitely not be able to defeat it, right?

I always feel that I have glimpsed a little bit of the catastrophe in the future, but Lan's strength is too weak, so there is nothing he can do even if he has glimpsed it.

"Okay, let's not talk about that. The adults will be there to protect the enemy. Let's start today's work. With you around, I can be a lot more relaxed."

The secretary was obviously very happy. Originally, she had to handle these official duties by herself, but now there was one more person to help her share the burden.

The pressure suddenly dropped.

Lan doesn't know yet how to effectively judge the situations of these official affairs, nor does he know how to deal with them.

So he began to observe what his secretary did.

The secretary picked up a pen and a seal and started working quickly.

It takes almost one second to scan the contents of the document, and another second to determine whether it passes the approval.

Then start the next file instantly.

The speed dazzled Lan, and his eyes started to hurt after watching for a while.

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute, I can't keep up."

The secretary scratched his head after hearing this: "Sorry, I'm a little used to it. This speed is too fast. I'm really sorry. I will slow down a little next time. Please pay attention."

Lan nodded. This speed really dazzled him. It did not help to improve his abilities at all, but it might be a very good choice to use it to train his myopia.

Sure enough, after the secretary finished speaking, his speed dropped significantly, and he began to teach Lan how to judge whether the content of the document had been approved.

"Look, there are rules for submitting applications for official business in Konoha Village. First, you need to indicate your village or town. For example, if you are from an outer city, fill in the outer city. If you are from another village, fill in your own village."

"Then there is the content of the application, which should generally be concise and to the point. Applications with too many words will generally be rejected."

This one was a little confusing. "Ah? Why is that? Shouldn't you explain the application in more detail?"

The secretary shook her head and said, "No, let alone the Hokage, I review thousands of documents every day. If I were to look through them all, they would pile up."

"So the application form must be concise and to the point, so that I can know the content of the application immediately and make a judgment immediately. This will not affect work efficiency and allow me to respond immediately. It is the best of both worlds."

After hearing this, Lan understood everything. This was very useful to him. The documents in the Whirlpool Country usually started with greetings, then small talk, and finally the questions.

Because he is always praised highly by the contents of the documents, Lan thinks that other villages are the same.

So this is what my country is like...

He was too embarrassed to tell anyone about it, or else he would be laughed at.

"I'm grateful for your advice. You're worthy of being called Konoha Village. I've learned a lot right from the start."

"As long as it helps you."

"The last item on the document is to fill in the applicant's name clearly. If you have a family, you need to fill in the family name together. If you don't have one, just write your own name."

Lan nodded repeatedly. He already understood the most basic model, but he still needed to continue learning from his secretary about how to judge whether an application was approved.

After all, he didn't quite understand the situation in Konoha Village, and was afraid of causing trouble if he acted rashly.
