Chapter 206: The Hokage Robe
Within a few days, the appointment letter from the Daimyō of the Land of Fire arrived.
That was fast!
The letter harshly criticized Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions and strongly endorsed Tsunade as the new Hokage.
Hokage's Office.
"Lady Tsunade—oh, no, Lady Hokage. Are you satisfied with the renovations?"
The speaker was the a short, dark-skinned, middle-aged man, his face radiating obvious flattery.
"Not bad," Tsunade replied, glancing around.
Kawakaze had covered the renovation costs for the office. Though Tsunade hadn't planned to change anything, Kawakaze insisted that a new recruit deserved a fresh start. She eventually relented. Now the office had a completely new appearance. Holding the appointment letter in her hand, she lightly tapped it against her palm.
The solid wood flooring, walls painted in warm tones, and high-quality furniture were a significant upgrade from the previous setup.
"That's fine. If there are any quality issues, just let me know," the dark-skinned man said, his smile widening further. He clearly saw his connection to the Hokage as a stepping stone for future opportunities.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work," Tsunade replied with a polite smile, clearly pleased with the results.
