At this mont, the high-ranking officials of Konoha Village were truly excited! Joining the cabinet ant entering the core of Konoha's power structure, right?
Even though Uchiha Akira, or rather the Hokage, had veto power or the final say, they were still qualified to handle these official docunts!
Even if Akira was just acting as the Hokage for now, who could say that this wasn't sothing initiated by the Hokage, using Akira as a test?
After all, proposing such a mature cabinet system on just his second day as acting Hokage was likely an idea the Hokage had thought through long ago!
If the cabinet could indeed help handle the political affairs without undermining the Hokage's power...
Then, when the Hokage returned from the Land of Iron if he approved of this cabinet system, wouldn't it be a success?
Alright, even if this had nothing to do with the Hokage and was rely Akira's private decision, who was Akira?
He was the strongest candidate for the next Hokage, without a doubt!
If Akira found the cabinet system beneficial, even if it was abolished upon the Hokage's return, once Akira took over as Hokage, wouldn't the cabinet likely be reinstated?
Thus, everyone present wasn't foolish. Akira's words made them realize that power in Konoha was within their reach, and Akira was even extending it to them.
Whether they could grasp it depended on their performance!
So, the people summoned by Akira were all eager to give their best effort in making the cabinet system work.
Among them, Shikaku Nara looked at Akira with amazent!
While others thought this was likely the Hokage's idea, Shikaku believed it was Akira's own initiative!
Furthermore, in Shikaku's view, the system was extrely well-designed!
It effectively resolved the problem of the Hokage being overburdened with work without causing concerns about undermining the Hokage's authority.
Additionally, the cabinet mbers would serve as checks and balances against each other, and Akira, as the acting Hokage, would still hold the highest power.
All the work was being done by others, taking laziness to a new level, but no one could find fault with it!
"Alright everyone, let's start the trial run of this cabinet system," Akira said once he saw that everyone had accepted the idea.
Afterward, two large rooms next to the Hokage's office were cleared out and connected, becoming the place for the cabinet mbers to handle governnt affairs.
The cabinet mbers processed the docunts, sorted them out, and then handed them over to Akira for the final decision.
Important sections were highlighted to allow Akira to quickly grasp the key points.
Now, things were simple! Akira went from being the person taking the test to being the one grading the test.
Simply verifying the answers was far easier than solving the problems himself!
Thus, Akira's workload was imdiately reduced by ** percent!
While waiting for the docunts to be delivered, Akira had ti for tea and even a two-hour nap!
Every day, instead of working late into the night, Akira could work comfortably from nine to five.
After all, work that was ant for one person was now spread among seven or eight, making things much easier!
As a result, Akira began to feel like a regular office worker!
He woke up each morning, perford a life simulation, and then went to the Hokage office to take it easy until it was ti to leave, spending the rest of his ti with Hinata. Life was leisurely and free! Most importantly, for others who beca clan heads or Hokage, political affairs often hindered their personal developnt.
But Akira had no such concerns!
After all, 95% of his strength ca from the life simulator, with very little from personal training!
With a daily life simulation, Akira's chakra was steadily improving!
From a base level of 80,000, it rose bit by bit.
84,000, 87,000, 94,000...
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed!
The Land of Water sent another 20 million in funds, and Kakuzu also delivered twice, amounting to 25 million.
Akira's funds remained stable at around 50 million ryo, with almost no decline!
One morning, after waking up, Akira habitually extracted his chakra and prepared for a new life simulation.
As he extracted the chakra, Akira felt a significant surge in his chakra reserves!
It seed that the accumulation had reached a tipping point. Slowly but surely, quantity had transford into quality, becoming more refined and abundant.
At the sa ti, the system's prompt appeared before him!
[Congratulations! Your overall strength has advanced to the Super-Kage level. Life
Simulator cost increased to 10 million ryo!]
Seeing this prompt, Akira felt a mix of surprise and normalcy, with hardly any emotional fluctuations.
These past days, Akira had felt himself getting closer and closer to Super-Kage level, ready to break through at any mont!
Moreover, the life simulation cost had once again increased tenfold, from 1 million ryo to 10 million ryo!
"Sigh, every ti my ninja level increases, it's both painful and joyous," Akira sighed,
shaking his head.
Advancing in overall ninja strength was worth celebrating, like now, as he reached Super- Kage level!
He had officially surpassed the Kage level and reached the legendary rank of Uchiha Madara and the First Hokage!
To say that he was now the only Super-Kage level shinobi in the world wasn't an
exaggeration!
But at the sa ti, the cost of the life simulator had increased tenfold again!
10 million ryo for one simulation was truly unaffordable!
Looking at his funds of just over 50 million, what originally would have been 50 uses was now
reduced to only five.
Even with the 20 million monthly paynt from the Mist Village and Kakuzu's occasional
contributions...
He could hardly afford the cost anymore!
Now, with the price increase, his savings were rely a "balance" rather than true savings.
"Sigh, living luxuriously with daily simulations isn't sustainable anymore!"
"I need to find a way to keep earning money!"
"10 million per simulation-I've beco a true gold-spender!"
Thinking of how his savings could only afford five more simulations, Akira sighed.
Still, regardless, this was his choice. Besides, increasing his strength to the Super-Kage level
was indeed sothing worth celebrating.
After so contemplation, Akira gritted his teeth, deciding to splurge once more and initiate
his daily routine of a simulation.
10 million Ryo instantly vanished!
The life simulator activated again!
[Five days later, the Five Kage Summit concluded, with the Hokage reminding everyone to
stay vigilant against the Akatsuki on their return.]
[Uchiha Itachi and Kisa attacked Kazekage Rasa. Though the Kazekage's personal guards fought desperately, the Sand Village group sustained serious injuries.]
[Kakuzu and Tobi attacked Tsuchikage Ōnoki, leading to Ōnoki's serious injury and eventual
death.]
[Sasori and Deidara attacked the Mizukage, who was gravely injured but managed to
escape.]
[The Six Paths of Pain attacked the Hokage. Fugaku and Kakashi were both killed!]
[Ten days later, news of the Hokage and Tsuchikage's deaths spread across the shinobi world, causing widespread shock.]
[Half a month later, you succeeded as the Sixth Hokage!]
[A month later, Uchiha Sasuke, against your protests, set off on his path of vengeance!]
[Three months later, news ca that Sasuke had killed Uchiha Itachi, thus awakening the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan!]
[Five months later, Sasuke killed Deidara, Sasori, and Kisa, shaking the shinobi world!] [Eight months later, you sent Naruto Uzumaki, Tsunade, and Jiraiya to assist Sasuke against
the Akatsuki!]
[Uchiha Madara was resurrected, sending shockwaves across the shinobi world!]
[Ten months later, Madara gathered all nine Tailed Beasts, entering the Six Paths mode!]
[The Infinite Tsukuyomi was unleashed, casting the entire shinobi world into illusion. You
and Hinata successfully resisted it!]
[Both of you confronted Madara but were defeated.]
[You died.]
This simulation was more detailed than the previous one. Previously, it only ntioned the
Kages being attacked; now, it specified who attacked whom in detail!
Indeed, the 10-million simulation was on another level!
The events in the simulation deeply shook Akira.
This ti, not only were the other Kages attacked, but even the Hokage faced an ambush-
the Six Paths of Pain, no less, resulting in his death!
Moreover, the summit ended in just five days, with the Hokage then being attacked?
Seeing this, Akira couldn't sit still. He imdiately stood up, instructed the cabinet to stabilize Konoha, and swiftly left the village, heading for the Land of Iron...
