The efficiency of ninjas is truly remarkable.
Yesterday, the Jōnin council elected Tsunade as the Fifth Hokage, and today, the inauguration ceremony was already taking place.
Standing atop the Hokage Building, Tsunade gazed down at the gathered crowd, feeling a surge of excitement.
"Tsunade-sama, here is your speech!"
Her personal secretary, Shizune, handed her a piece of paper, hoping Tsunade would at least glance at it before following protocol to give her speech.
But she forgot who Tsunade was.
Tsunade never did things the conventional way.
Taking the speech, she crumpled it into a ball and tossed it into the corner.
"Everyone!"
"From today onward, I, Tsunade, am the Fifth Hokage of Konoha!"
Her aura was overwhelming.
The imposing presence of Tsunade made countless women instinctively press their legs together, their faces flushed with admiration.

[So cool! So cool! As expected of Tsunade!]
[Ugh, I can't take it anymore! I just want to take her home!]
As Tsunade was walking back to her Hokage desk, she suddenly staggered slightly, almost tripping.
'Damn pervert... Can't he think of something else besides this kind of nonsense!'
Cursing internally, Tsunade waved her hand, signaling that she was fine, then sat down at her desk.
A stack of documents, half as tall as a person, sat on the desk, waiting for her attention.
[Why do so many people fight over such a troublesome position? Wouldn't it be better to just slack off and enjoy life?]
*Snap!*
A brush was crushed in her grip as Tsunade turned to the corner, where Hikari was sneakily slacking off, her eyes flashing with murderous intent.
She knew being Hokage was a hassle. That was exactly why she hadn't wanted to return.
If Konoha had any other viable candidates, would she have come back so obediently?
Not a chance.
"Kamizuki Hikari!"
"Here!"
[Has Tsunade finally realized I'm useless and decided to send me to guard the gates?]
[Even though I can still sign in at the Hokage's office, slacking off at the village gate is way better.]
Tsunade's mouth twitched. If she kept him around, she was afraid the muscles in her face would develop a permanent spasm.
She had never met someone so shameless.
"Since you've been assigned to assist me, you can help me go through these Hokage documents."
Don't think that reviewing Hokage documents is anything special. A large portion consists of routine mission reports and intelligence updates, with only a few concerning the internal affairs of Konoha.
"Tsunade-sama, these are documents meant for the Hokage's eyes only. Having me review them seems inappropriate and against protocol."
*Bang!*
Tsunade slammed her hand on the desk in response to Hikari's half-hearted excuse.
[Damn, she's so hot-tempered! Is Tsunade going through that days? I better be careful.]
Hold it in!
Tsunade, you have to hold it in.
Getting mad at someone like him will only lower your dignity.
Taking deep breaths to calm herself, Tsunade managed to bring down her rising blood pressure.
"I am the Hokage. What I say is the law in Konoha. Are you going to defy the Hokage's orders?" With that, she dropped a heavy accusation, effectively silencing him.
