Daily Life of the Third Hokage

The time flies, and it is the 30th year of Konoha. A lot of things happened in the 29th year of Konoha. In addition to the assessment of the Konoha Village Committee, there are also rotation assessments of various departments, and the third formal meeting of the Five Shadows Association, which was attended by the Second Shadow Danzo.

There are two things that people talk about most.

The first is that the disciple of the Hokage, Orochimaru, the current Minister of Education and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, accepted two disciples, namely the 15-year-old Uchiha Fugaku of the Uchiha clan and the 8-year-old Hyuga Hiashi of the Hyuga clan. (I didn't find the date of birth of Hiashi when I checked the data, so I estimated it now. If there is anything wrong, please correct me. I will correct it if I see it.)

The second is that the Hyuga family announced: Since the main family has too few people, it is not good for the family. The next generation of the branch family members who perform well and contribute a lot to the family and the village can enter the main family and avoid being marked as a bird in a cage. There is only one quota each year.

This was forcibly passed by the previous generation of the Hyuga clan leader, the current Hyuga clan elder, Hyuga Tennin. For this matter, several elders of the main family were sent to the branch family.

Hyuga Tennin's proposal to change the clan leader was not realized after all. This proposal was persuaded by the clan leader Hyuga Nobusumi to give up on the condition of supporting the decision of the branch family to enter the main family.

For Hyuga Nobusumi, this effortless position of clan leader was firmly secured. How many years can the clan elder live?

When the clan elder Hyuga Tennin goes to the Pure Land, won't he have the final say on what to do with the family?

Hyuga Tennin just wanted to open a gap, and he couldn't see how it would develop later.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's view, the gap opened by Hyuga Tennin would definitely become the reason for Hyuga Hiashi to save his nephew and brother.

As for the internal strife of the Hyuga family, he didn't take it seriously.

-----------------

That day, the Minister of the Political Affairs Department of Konoha Village, Mitomon En, and the Deputy Minister, Nara Shikako, received the information sent by Shimura Danzo, the Second Kage and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Konoha, who was far away in the Iron Country.

The two hurried to report to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen: The information sent by Shimura Danzo, the Second Kage of Konoha, was that several small countries headed by the Rain Country wanted to strive for a higher status in the ninja world.

After listening to it, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and fell into deep thought.

"The Rain Country, these small countries are really ignorant of the world. If they want to fight for a higher position in the ninja world, they must have the corresponding strength. Without the corresponding strength, no matter how high their position is, it is just a paper tiger.

Except for Hanzo of the Rain Country, who has some strength, there are other countries such as the Grass Country, the Ghost Country, the River Country, etc.

There is even the Snow Country, they don't even have a formal ninja organization, are you kidding me?" Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone revealed an inexplicable surprise.

"Hokage-sama, how should we respond?" Mito Kado En asked.

After thinking for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Send a letter to Danzo and ask him to convene the representatives of the five villages in the Five Kage Association. I think we can send people to negotiate with these small countries first.

See what their real intentions are. If they really want to cooperate and have the strength, then we Konoha can consider supporting powerful countries to join the Five Kage Association.

If they want to make trouble, then I believe that the Lightning Kingdom will let them know and let them know that the Five Kage Association is not just talk."

"Lord Sarutobi, I think we can adopt some strategies to let these small countries know the strength of the Five Kage Association so that they dare not easily provoke the Five Kage Association." Nara Shikashin said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen still doesn't know that these small countries have any strength. Only the Rain Kingdom, under the leadership of Hanzo of the Salamander, constantly absorbs wandering ninjas, rebellious ninjas, etc., and has those strengths. Other small countries are simply not worth mentioning.

But it is not easy to dampen the enthusiasm of his subordinates now.

"Shikashin, tell me what you think." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

Nara Shikashin said: "We can have the five villages send some ninjas to these small countries to create some troubles, let them know the difference in strength, and at the same time let them see the unity of the Five Shadows Federation, which represents the ninja forces of the five countries."

What's the difference between what you said and what you didn't say? That's what I said just now, no, Shikashin couldn't have failed to understand what I meant, so why did he repeat it?

Sarutobi Hiruzen chewed on Nara Shikashin's words carefully, no, there was still a little difference, Sarutobi Hiruzen said it more gently,

Send someone to negotiate.

And Nara Shikashin wants to take the initiative to provoke to show strength.

This idea is not good, don't you just lose your face?

Isn't this a loss of justice? As the largest ninja village in the ninja world, it cannot lose its justice.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said, "You are right, but let's do it my way. There is no need to force the head.

There are not only us in the Five Kage Association, and there are many people who are dissatisfied with this matter."

"Lord Sarutobi, I have another idea." Nara Shikashin said.

"What idea?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Nara Shikashin said, "We can take advantage of the contradictions between these small countries and let them restrain each other, so that we can better control the situation."

"Shikashin, your idea is not bad, just barely, this can be used as a deputy strategy, you can send the intelligence department to get detailed information first, but don't act rashly.

Only with detailed information, no matter what decision we make later, we can lock in the first opportunity." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"Hokage-sama, shall we arrange it now?" Mizuto Kado En said.

"Okay, you go and arrange it now, Lu Xin stay for a while," said Sarutobi Hiruzen. and Nara Lu Xin

Mizuto Kado En left Sarutobi Hiruzen's office and began to arrange for the ninja to issue orders, and planned to personally draft a message to the Iron Kingdom.

After Mizuto Kado En left, Sarutobi Hiruzen got up and made a cup of tea for Lu Xin, saying: "Lu Xin, it's not like you today? You would do such a troublesome thing? Tell me, what's going on?"

Nara Lu Xin took the teacup with trepidation. He knew what Sarutobi Hiruzen meant. This cup of tea was a toast, which meant that he wanted to speak out.

If he didn't plan to speak, he would probably be bullied later.

After following the third generation Hokage for so many years, he also figured out Sarutobi Hiruzen's petty mind. If you don't follow his wishes, you will probably be bullied in the future.

Besides, he is the secretary of the Hokage, and it's none of his business what happens to other people.

"Yes, Lord Jikage. The scroll I showed you just now was rewritten. It was the message sent by Lord Jikage.

The whole scroll is about punishing several small countries, so Lord Mitomon and I rewrote it.

In order to avoid incomplete information, I came up with some bad ideas."

"You guys, hey hey hey. Forget it, just get out." Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly and shook his head.
