Mikawa took a careful look. Compared to the first time he saw Aoba, his speed and strength had both improved significantly.
Moreover, at that time, Aoba's physical fitness was not outstanding, especially ordinary.
And now, it was obviously different!
'This must have something to do with hard work and hard training, but maybe this medicinal bath is really as magical as he said?'
Mikawa began to look at this matter seriously.
"Before going to see the Hokage-sama, are you sure you know what you are doing? If it is just a prank, I admit that you have fooled me, but Hokage-sama is not someone you can act wantonly at a young age."
Aoba knew that Mikawa was warning him, and at the same time, he was worried that he would cause trouble.
But this time, he was confident, so he nodded seriously, "I will be responsible for every word I say!"
Mikawa looked at him deeply and then no longer asked anything more. "Come with me," he said.
.....
In the Hokage office, Minato was seriously reviewing the documents in his hands.
Only after sitting in this position did he feel what the name of the Hokage represented and how much pressure he felt.
In addition, after Sarutobi-sensei left the post, they suddenly went somewhere to enjoy their retired life, so he did not even have a person to ask for advice and share the pressure.
What? You said that Hokage was a high-level consultant?
Not mentioning this was okay. In the beginning, two consultants opposed him becoming the Hokage. Until now, when he turned to Koharu, Homura was still indifferent to him and seemed to be still in the observation period.
Not to mention Danzo, this ambitious man had been coveting the position of Hokage for a long time. It would be good if he did not drag him down. Help? Want to eat fart!
However, he had a big heart. This huge pressure not only did not crush him but also allowed him to grow rapidly.
The work of the Hokage was also very well done. Not only did he not make any big mistakes, but he also began to cultivate his own forces.
Among them, Kakashi, whose mentality had already collapsed, was directly transferred to Anbu and became his right-hand man. He was very trustworthy.
What made him even happier was that the day he became a father was getting closer and closer as the days went by.
After a day of work every day, when he returned home, it was probably the happiest time for him to accompany his wife and the child in his belly to eat together.
'It would be even better if Kushina could not be so irritable while she was pregnant….'
He had just put down the processed documents and rubbed his head. The door was pushed open. His assistant reported, "Hokage-sama, special Jonin, Mikawa has come to see you. He also brought a child and said that there is something very important."
"Is it something very important? Then let them in."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Although there was still a lot of work that had not been done, it was good to take a break and listen to the important reports of others.
As the Hokage who was born as a civilian, Minato did not have that much arrogance, nor did he have the habit of being arrogant.
Moreover, Mikawa, a special Jonin, had always been conscientious. He was very mature and steady. It was not an exaggeration to call him the cornerstone of Konoha. Or it could be said that many people like Mikawa, who had silently contributed to the village, had united together to form the foundation of Konoha!
…..
Soon, there was another knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Pushing open the door, Mikawa and Aoba finally arrived at the Hokage office.
"Special Jonin, Mikawa. I have something important to report to the Hokage!"
Minato first smiled at Mikawa and Aoba, who he had not seen for a while, and nodded. Then, he said, "What is the specific matter?"
Mikawa first roughly explained the effects of the medicinal bath.
After guaranteeing it for him, he turned his head to indicate that Aoba could speak.
To be honest, Aoba was now a little touched. Mikawa could clearly push everything onto him and thus be irresponsible. However, Mikawa's choice was to use his reputation as a guarantee to pave the way for everything that Aoba wanted to say in the future. At the same time, it also increased the credibility of his words.
After all, compared to a mature adult, the words of a five-year-old child did not carry any weight.
At the same time, this also meant that if Aoba was just playing a prank, or if the things he took out could not achieve a satisfactory effect, even if Mikawa did not have to bear any punishment, they would still leave a frivolous and boastful impression.
In order to repay Mikawa's trust, Aoba took a deep breath and began to talk about the real effect of this medicinal bath. It was not exaggerated or modest, and he gave a practical explanation.
He also used himself as an example to increase the credibility of his words. After all, he had never used anything before. If he wanted to sell it to others, he would really treat others as fools.
As for how he had obtained this formula, he had simply passed it to a corpse while he was fleeing.
In any case, only Obito and a few others knew about his experiences during that period of time. No matter how he made it up, there was practically no possibility of verifying it.
Moreover, so many people had died during that period of time, and there was no pressure in dying without evidence.
After listening carefully to the narration of the big and small, Minato did not take it seriously. Instead, he knocked on the table and said, "This formula needs to be verified. If the effect is really as you said, then the village will invest money to buy it and give you corresponding rewards."
After all, Minato was not the kind of person who was black-hearted like Danzo. He could not do such a thing.
However, everything had to be based on the result. If the final proved that the formula was fake, then not only would there be no reward, but there would also be a certain punishment.
During this period of training, Minato had already become a qualified Hokage, and he was able to use this kind of method.
"No problem, I can verify it now. I just brought a bag of medicinal powder. Now, I would like to ask you to find a person whose body has been overdrawn after excessive training so that I can feel the effect more directly."
Aoba confidently placed a bag of medicinal powder on the table.
After seeing this scene, Minato was stunned at first, and then he laughed heartily. "I am now more confident in your formula, the future 5th Hokage?"
Aoba blushed a little from being teased, but it was always right to be cautious.
If he were thin-skinned, he wouldn't do business!
Fortunately, Minato, who had a bright personality, didn't care about these trivial matters. As long as he could prove that this thing had a good effect on the village cultivating talents, he would not be stingy.
Soon, someone went to prepare according to Minato's request...
