The fire was shining brightly, and Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath from his cigarette. The dancing flames flickered and then went out within a few seconds. His survival seemed to be dependent on the desperate exhalation of this elderly man.

Inhale to survive.

Sarutobi can accept the near misses in the god-making movement. Over the years, the difference between him and his old buddy Shimura Danzo is that the old guy always wants to be in control of everything and cannot accept things happening that are not within his control.

Once a plan is set, everyone has to participate according to their own vision.

But I have already seen clearly that life is not about getting what you want, but life is about making mistakes.

It’s good to set a goal in order to accomplish something, and in the end, by some combination of circumstances, you can still achieve the goal.

In this war, Sarutobi had three goals.

First, transfer the internal conflicts of Konoha Village to the outside, use external war to divert everyone's attention, and use external pressure to promote internal unity.

The second is that there is no successor in Konoha, so a few more fighting heroes will be created to alleviate the talent gap in Konoha.

The third is to use the power of great victory to force the Konoha ninja clan to join, so that those ninja clan who are not even willing to send people to the ninja school can fully see that Konoha Village already has people who can check and balance, or even surpass.

their strength.

If they are still unwilling to join Konoha, Konoha will not need them.

After so many years, Konoha is still the same Konoha where dozens of ninja clans live together. It doesn't look like a whole at all. Each ninja clan regards their own secret skills as more important than anything else.

This is not conducive to the development of Konoha.

Sarutobi felt it was time for a change and let Konoha see the power of civilian ninjas.

A large number of cheap civilian ninjas that can be continuously cultivated are the main combat force on the battlefield. However, family ninjas cultivated with a large amount of resources are not suitable for the current world.

Sarutobi even understood that even if he was as powerful as Shadow, he would probably die of exhaustion if he really fought against ten thousand ninjas.

However, it is difficult for a village to train 10,000 civilian ninjas, but it is not impossible. Moreover, this kind of training also comes with unexpected surprises, that is, there may be a few who are particularly capable of fighting.

But to cultivate a shadow is to do your best and it depends on fate.

Therefore, universal education that treats everyone in Konoha equally and focuses on training is the way to go. However, the ninja clan who is only willing to train their own people is corrupt in Sarutobi's view.

After all, everyone is selfish. If Konoha focuses on cultivating ninjas from the ninja clan, the ninja clan will naturally welcome them.

However, it is not acceptable for the Ninja clan to have people, effort and money to train civilians.

To force them to join, Sarutobi thought of many ways.

For example, let a ninja from the ninja clan serve as a jounin teacher to lead the newly rising ninja clan and the Konoha servants who have just graduated from the ninja school, and use time to strengthen their emotional bonds.

A single group may have group tendencies, but looking at the individuals in it, they are just ordinary people. People have emotions, and the cultivation of emotions can only be established by giving each other time.

Sarutobi believed that as long as there was time, the ninjas would be able to see the bright spots in the common people of Konoha. After recognizing them, the obstacles in subsequent matters would be reduced.

Then Sarutobi relied on the victory brought by civilian ninjas, allowing these civilian ninjas to gain a lot of reputation, and even launched a ninja hero who was born as a civilian.

In this way, a Konoha law was introduced. From now on, except for special circumstances, ninjas who want to obtain the position of Konoha genin must be graduates of the ninja school.

In turn, the relationship between the ninja clan and the common people will be closer, and the friendship created together for many years will always form a bond.

Nowadays, although the ninja clan also invites the younger generations of the family to come to school, it is just a perfunctory way. Coming to school is just to name the younger generations who will join Konoha's political arena in the future.

He is still cultivating his family's ninja thugs at home. He is not willing to contribute to Konoha's education at all.

In order to promote the selection of ninjas to join the Konoha Ninja School, Sarutobi had already thought about Namikaze Minato.

A civilian ninja with extraordinary talents.

Thanks to Nidaime for developing the Flying Thunder Technique.

The Shodaime was actually right, this was indeed a forbidden jutsu. Because it simply could not be considered a ninjutsu that humans could control.

Space Ninjutsu is not very popular.

If it is just a single point-to-point movement, then the teleportation technique is not as fast as the flying thunder technique, but it is still enough to meet the needs of the ninja. It is so difficult, and the actual combat power brought to the ninja does not bring much commission. Such a ninjutsu

It's meaningless.

However, Namikaze Minato was a man with a different kind of talent among civilians. He actually developed this ninjutsu into a point-to-multipoint use.

His reaction ability is different from ordinary people. He can appear in different locations on the battlefield at the same time, and he can react accordingly according to the different occasions at which he appears.

This is simply not something that other ninjas can do. I am afraid that after him, the art of flying thunder will be lost. So far, Sarutobi has not seen the second person who can do this.

Even the second generation who developed this ninjutsu just used it as a ninjutsu on the go.

Therefore, Sarutobi came up with the idea of ​​promoting this newcomer to the throne, not to mention that this boy was a commoner who married the daughter of a great ninja clan.

I guess the ninja clan won't reject him so much, at least the little ninja clan won't be embarrassed to reject him.

Now, all that is needed is a big victory.

Reputation is the hardest thing to say. If a ninja does not have famous military exploits, then his power will not be feared. If a ninja is not feared, someone will always take action against him, and then die inexplicably.

in the hands of people.

Is Hanzo, the so-called demigod, really that powerful?

In fact, it was just the five major countries' desire to have a buffer zone between each other, but this also made him famous and powerful.

The underage Sannin back then might not have been his match, but now, none of his three disciples who were given the name of Sannin by him were inferior to him in strength.

This is reputation.

He is invisible, but he can always play an unimaginable role.

Minato, who was extremely talented and had the right status, now lacked the reputation.

Originally, Sarutobi hoped that this reputation would come from the efforts of many Konoha civilian ninjas, with a large number of Konoha ninjas as the main fighting force on the front line, with ninjas from the ninja clan as the audience, and finally to the reputation of the battlefield commander Namikaze Minato.

.

But this time, an accident happened. The mass-produced civilian ninjas brought not victory, but collapse.

Even the ninjas of the ninja clan were defeated along with them.

If it weren't for Namikaze Minato's ability to change the situation of the battle, he might have screwed up this time.

A near miss but no danger, a near miss but no danger.

Although it is quite different from what I imagined, the result has not changed.

Konoha still ushered in a great victory, and this great victory finally created the myth of Namikaze Minato.

Thinking about it, those ninjas who were saved by Minato on the battlefield would naturally be grateful to him, and would stand by his side to some extent in the future.

Now all that is left is a grand performance in Konoha Village.
