Chapter 155: The Announcement of the Top Ten on the Merit List!

Chapter 155: The Announcement of the Top Ten on the Merit List!

[Merit List, Rank 18: Senju Tobirama]

[Evaluation: He has killed many, but most were evil individuals. He also assisted in the founding of Konoha Village, bringing an end to the wars. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, his merit points are 10,001.]

Seeing that Senju Tobirama ranked higher than him, Uchiha Madara was quite displeased.

[Uchiha Madara: Why is Tobirama ranked higher than me?]

[Senju Hashirama: It's obvious. Most of the people my brother killed deserved it, and he rarely killed the innocent. That's why his merit points are higher than yours.]

[Uchiha Madara: He killed my brother!]

[Senju Hashirama: But didn't your brother kill many members of the Senju clan back then? It was just revenge!]

[Senju Tobirama: I'm surprised I made it to the 18th spot on the Merit List. I thought I wouldn't make it at all!]

Time passed slowly, and the rankings continued to be announced one after another.

After a long time, the top ten were finally revealed.

At this moment, many people were full of anticipation. After all, the rewards for the top ten were incredibly good, so everyone paid special attention to these rankings.

Finally, under everyone's anticipation, the tenth place on the Merit List was announced.

On the screen, the image of an old man appeared, none other than Mifune from the Land of Iron.

[Merit List, Rank 10: Mifune]

[Evaluation: Leader of the samurai of the Land of Iron. He has killed many evil individuals, upheld his sense of justice, saved countless lives, and led the samurai to eliminate many corrupt ones. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, his merit points are 12,103.]

[Fourth Raikage: A bit surprising. I didn't expect Mifune from the Land of Iron to make it to the top ten!]

[Tsunade: Actually, it makes sense. Mifune, as the leader of the samurai of the Land of Iron, killed many evil people and rooted out numerous corrupt samurai. He managed the Land of Iron very well. Given his achievements, it's natural for him to earn a lot of merit. So, it's no surprise that he ranked tenth on the Merit List!]

[Mifune: I didn't expect to rank tenth. This is quite surprising!]

[Mei Terumi: Even Mifune made it to the top ten on the Merit List. I'm envious. If I'd known, I'd have killed more bad guys!]

[Third Tsuchikage: Looks like I need to kill more bad guys in the future!]

[Gaara: Defining a bad person isn't easy. Ninjas serve different masters, and accidentally killing someone with great merit could be a big loss! However, there are some scumbags who deserve to die!]

Before long, the ninth place on the Merit List was also announced.

The image of Naruto Uzumaki appeared on the screen.

[Merit List, Rank 9: Naruto Uzumaki]

[Evaluation: Always willing to help others, he has assisted many people multiple times, stopped Nagato Uzumaki, and saved Konoha Village. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, his merit points are 12,200.]

[Sakura Haruno: Naruto, you made it to the ninth spot! Congratulations!]

[Fourth Hokage: Hahaha, my son Naruto is amazing! He ranked ninth on the Merit List and will surely get some good rewards!]

[Hinata Hyuga: Naruto-kun is amazing!]

[Neji Hyuga: Naruto, congratulations!]

[Kushina Uzumaki: My son is amazing! Getting ninth place on the Merit List is totally normal!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: I'm ninth on the Merit List! Awesome!!!!]

Soon after, the eighth place on the Merit List was announced.

The image of Jiraiya appeared on the livestream screen.

[Merit List, Rank 8: Jiraiya]

[Evaluation: Always willing to help others, even in times of war, he saved many innocent civilians. Upholding the justice in his heart, he spent years honing his skills and saved many villages and ordinary people. He also killed many evil individuals. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, his merit points are 15,288.]

[Jiraiya: Wow, I ranked eighth on the Merit List!]

[Great Toad Sage: Little Jiraiya has always been helpful and kind-hearted. It's only natural for him to have earned this ranking!]

[Tsunade: Jiraiya is indeed a soft-hearted fool, always so kind. I can't compare to him. Even with the position of Hokage, my merit doesn't come close to his.]

[Kakashi: Jiraiya-sama truly deserves to be my idol!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: Wow, pervy sage! I always thought you were just pervy, but you've done so many good things!]

[Nagato: Jiraiya-sensei truly was kind-hearted. Even during the war with Amegakure, he saved us ordinary children.]

[Konan: It's a pity we betrayed him. Even though we've repented now, some things can never be undone.]

[Jiraiya: What's done is done, no use dwelling on it.]

[Might Guy: Jiraiya-sama ranking eighth means his reward will be quite valuable!]

[Jiraiya: Hahaha, I hope I get a good treasure!]

As time passed, the seventh place on the Merit List was revealed.

This time, the image of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, appeared on the screen.

Clearly, it was now Minato's turn.

[Merit List, Rank 7: Minato Namikaze]

[Evaluation: He saved countless lives, killed many evil individuals, and even sacrificed his own life to seal the Nine-Tails, saving countless people in Konoha. Based on a comprehensive evaluation, his merit points are 16,390.]

[Fourth Raikage: I have great respect for Minato Namikaze. He's definitely the most admirable Hokage. If he hadn't died, I wouldn't have dared to bully Konoha back then. It's a pity—he had unlimited potential and was still so young, yet he sacrificed himself for Konoha to seal the rampaging Nine-Tails.]

[Third Hokage: Minato was indeed very kind and contributed immensely to Konoha. His ranking is well deserved.]

[Naruto Uzumaki: Wow, Dad made it to the seventh place!]

[Kushina Uzumaki: My husband is amazing, making it to the seventh place on the Merit List!]

[Fourth Hokage: Seventh place on the Merit List, haha! I'm a bit surprised but very happy!]

[Tsunade: Congratulations, Minato!]

[Jiraiya: Congratulations, Minato!]

[Kakashi: Congratulations, Minato-sensei!]

One had to admit that Minato's reputation among the people of Konoha far surpassed that of the Third Hokage.

Thus, many people sincerely congratulated Minato Namikaze.

After some time, the sixth place on the Merit List was revealed.

This time, the image of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, appeared on the screen.

[Merit List, Rank 6: Hashirama Senju!]

Seeing this ranking, Hashirama was overjoyed.
