Konoha: Be cautious from Hinata

Inside the Hokage's office.

There were never-ending documents piled up in front of his desk, and the Fourth Generation looked at the three elite jounin in front of him.

These three are his former teammates, the "Ino Shika Butterfly" group, and they are also the heirs who will inherit the position of clan leader of the three major ninja clans.

The reason for calling them here is also very simple, just to let his former teammates continue to support him.

Because he is about to carry out reforms in certain aspects of the village, such as taking back the ANBU belonging to the Hokage, taking action against the police force, etc.

"Minato, with all due respect, your reforms will encounter huge resistance." Nara Shikaku thought for a long time and gave a suggestion.

Before this, he had already seen the targets that the fourth generation wanted to reform, but those reforms were bound to touch the interests of the ninja clan in the village, and even directly pointed the finger at the Nara clan where he belonged.

To be fair, these reforms can alleviate conflicts in the village and bring considerable gains.

But for the Ninja clan, the disadvantages outweigh the benefits, and even the moment the reform is announced, they will encounter unprecedented backlash.

Next to them, Choza Akimichi and Haiichi Yamanaka also nodded, agreeing with Shikaku's opinion. Their Ino-Shika Butterfly combination will always stand on the same front.

After listening to Shikaku's words, the fourth generation showed a wry smile, "It is precisely because of this that I asked you to come over to help. Do you still remember the complaints we made when we performed missions together before?"

"We can already start to solve the problems caused by the injustice of the village system."

Saying that the Yondaime had helplessness on his face, it was an expression he would never show in front of others. The Yondaime in front of others would always be a sunny smile, shining and warming the heart of every ninja.

This is true even in front of the Third Generation, Jiraiya-sensei and even Kushina, this is the only exception.

Nara Shikaku looked at the Fourth Generation for a long time, feeling reassured by his friend's sincere confession, but their former Captain Minato was already the Hokage, and the Hokage would think about issues from the Hokage's perspective.

For Naruto, the importance of the village is far greater than that of his companions and personal emotions.

So much so that he kept some words in his heart and did not dare to say them openly for fear of arousing suspicion and distrust.

After looking at Akimichi Choza and Yamanaka Haiichi next to him, Shikaku said slowly: "Since it is Minato's wish, I will definitely support it. I think Choza and Haiichi are the same."

After saying that, the two people next to them also nodded one after another. Zhuludie is not so much a combination, but a family of the same camp. For a long time, they have always stood together and remained consistent, so that they can survive in the troubled times of the Warring States Period.

"Thank you then, Shikaku, Dingza, Haiichi." The fourth generation expressed his sincere thanks.

"There is no need to say thank you, Minato and we have always been companions!" Inogacho said in unison, and then left the Hokage's office under the eyes of the fourth generation.

What can be expected is that they accepted the fourth generation's request so easily. After returning to the family, they will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction from their parents and even other family members.

After all, before they became village ninjas and teammates, they were still family ninjas.

For the older generation of family elders, the Ninja Village only exists to protect the family, and the family is slightly more important than the Ninja Village.

So when they chose to help Minato, they also made great determination and were prepared to convince the family, even risking being deposed as heirs.

All this is not because of the Hokage's orders, but to help his friend Minato and realize the dream together.

After Inorikacho left, the Yondaime held his forehead and looked at the hanging portraits of past Hokages in front of him.

Being the Hokage is more difficult than imagined. I don't know how the Sandaime persevered. He must be secretly troubled like himself.

It's just that the Third Generation's policies are no longer suitable for the village. If Uchiha, who is secretly ostracized by the village, is left alone, it will become a time bomb sooner or later. It must be solved as soon as possible to let other ninjas share some of the village's hostility to the police.

Another thing worth worrying about is the roots led by Danzo's advisor and Orochimaru.

They have been unwilling to hand over the list of root members, and they are not even willing to put it under their jurisdiction in name. As the Hokage, he does not know the specific number of roots under his banner, which is really ridiculous.

I had shown a tough attitude in the past, but was excused by Sandai on the grounds that he had been severely damaged at the root and needed to reorganize the list.

So much so that he had become Hokage for several months, but he didn't know much about the missions performed by ANBU Roots before.

Regarding Advisor Danzo and Orochimaru, he has always disapproved of their actions, but he does not want to cause unrest among the village residents due to high-level turmoil, so he can only deal with them slowly in his future career as Hokage.

…

The Country of Rain, a certain base of the Akatsuki organization.

The blue-haired female ninja wearing black and red clouds was looking at this gloomy country from a high tower.

Just like the continuous rain, the Kingdom of Rain never lacks wars and cries, nor does it lack orphans displaced by wars. They are as common as weeds on the roadside.

There was once a group of ninjas with dreams who wanted to change this, so they established the Akatsuki organization that yearned for peace and understood each other.

The Akatsuki organization once formed a large-scale force, and even attracted the attention of Hanzo-sama, the leader of Ugakure, and negotiated the future of the Akatsuki organization and Ugakure.

But the negotiations eventually broke down, and leader Yahiko and most of the elders died during the negotiations.

Without Yahiko's guidance, the Akatsuki organization doesn't know where to go. Even as one of the elders, her heart is full of hesitation and confusion.

After counting the time, the blue-haired female ninja turned into pieces of paper and slowly fell downwards, arriving at a closed door.

Pushing open the iron door, the withered red-haired figure looked at the blue-haired female ninja at the door and said weakly: "Konan, you are finally here. Once upon a time, the Akatsuki organization was destroyed, but it was reborn amidst the destruction, and the position of leader will always belong to Yahiko.

!”

Not long after he finished speaking, several puppets made of corpses appeared in front of Xiaonan.

Konan's eyes were full of shock, and she was still confused, so she decided to obey Nagato's order.

far away.

Two pairs of eyes are watching everything, watching everything happening under their leadership.

The pitcher plant figure looked at the masked man beside him, and asked with a half-smile: "Yahiko is dead, and Nagato has stopped dreaming of peace as planned, so where are you going next?"

The masked man glanced at the pitcher plant, and then said slowly: "We will go to Konoha next. It has been peaceful there for too long. We need to recall the pain, and it is not in our interests to integrate Konoha too much."

"Can you really take action? This is Konoha, you should still have feelings."

"Madara has no feelings for Konoha..." the masked man said coldly, "Besides, there is nothing worth remembering in this world, it is a false world."
