"Queen Kazahana Koyuki, your subjects have been waiting outside for you for a long time!" Daitō kneels before Koyuki's chamber.

Several days have passed since Kazahana Noutou's death. During this time, all the people of the Land of Snow have come to the royal palace to see their new ruler in person.

Furen gently ruffled Koyuki's hair: "Your subjects need you."

"Alright, since you say so, Furen." Koyuki began preparing her makeup.

"Good luck, Koyuki," Furen encouraged her.

"Furen… thank you." Koyuki looked at him tenderly, her expression firm as she stepped out of the room.

After Koyuki left, Furen's figure flickered and he vanished from the chamber.

On a snow-covered mountain in the Land of Snow, Fubuki and Haku were serving the newly arrived Furen.

After satisfying his hunger, Furen followed Haku and Fubuki into the depths of a secret cave on the mountain, the place where the chakra armor worn by the snow ninjas was hidden.

"Do you know how Kazahana Noutou's new type of chakra armor can be mass-produced?" Furen asked Fubuki, who, as a former high-ranking snow ninja, had knowledge about the armor.

"It will take some time for analysis. The technology used for Noutou's chakra armor was likely purchased from other countries. It will require more time to analyze and apply this technology broadly."

"Mm." Furen nodded.

The Land of Snow could now be considered under Furen's control; he could confidently call himself the shadow ruler of the Land of Snow. Naturally, he needed to pay attention to his subordinate country.

If necessary, the ninja forces from the Land of Snow could be put to use by Furen in the future.

After weighing it for a while, Furen turned to Haku: "Haku, how about you stay in the Land of Snow to help Koyuki stabilize her reign?"

Furen himself couldn't remain in the Land of Snow, and given that Koyuki had just taken over, there were many issues that needed someone to assist her.

Haku was undoubtedly the best choice; not only did he have considerable strength, but he could also serve as a high-level combat asset for the Land of Snow.

Haku, who usually complied with Furen, showed a rare unwilling expression, biting his lower lip. However, after a moment of contemplation, he eventually nodded in agreement.

"Furen…"

...

"Ah, finally completed the mission!" Naruto stood outside the gates of Konoha, looking at the familiar entrance with a sigh. "I'm going to eat some Ichiraku ramen!"

Kakashi smiled but then showed an apologetic expression, shaking the mission scroll in his hand: "Sorry, Naruto, but I have to report the mission. Next time, okay?"

"What?!" Naruto's expression fell, as he had hoped Kakashi-sensei would treat him. Instead, Kakashi turned to report the mission, leaving Team 7 behind.

After Kakashi left, Sasuke snorted coldly and turned away. Naruto glanced at Furen and the Sakura who was tugging at Furen's sleeve.

Furen smiled, just about to agree when suddenly his gaze snapped to the village gates.

Upon seeing the beautiful woman's face, Furen's pupils constricted and he fell into deep thought.

"Her name is... Hanari, right?" Furen murmured.

Hanari, a spy from the Land of Water's Den Village!

She was also the only one in the Naruto series rumored to have had a romantic relationship with Kakashi.

"Sorry, Naruto. I'll treat you to ramen next time!" Furen put on an apologetic expression before quickly leaving in the direction where Hanari had disappeared.

"What?!" Naruto shouted in dissatisfaction, then turned his gaze to the only one left, Sakura.

After watching Furen leave, Sakura glanced at Naruto and huffed before turning away.
