Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird!

"Third generation sir, what do you mean by this!?"

Hinata Yuzuru was dumbfounded and looked at the three generations in front of him in disbelief.

what happened!?

Me? Temporary Hokage?

Even Hinata Yuzuru thought that he might become Hokage, and even thought about many ways and scenarios of becoming Hokage.

But I never thought about it.

Will be tonight.

It would be so sudden, it could even be said to be hasty.

Sandai didn't say much, but picked up several appointment letters on his desk that had been stamped but not yet announced.

"Uchiha Fugaku was transferred from the Konoha Police Force and promoted to the commander-in-chief of Konoha Roots!?

Itachi Uchiha resigned from ANBU and became the new head of the Konoha Police Force!?

Uchiha Shisui was promoted to commander-in-chief of ANBU...?!"

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the three appointment letters. Even he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, raised his head, and even subconsciously activated his Byakugan with all his strength, fearing that the third generation in front of him would be like the fourth generation Mizukage, who would be captured by Uchiha.

Illusion takes control.

As a result, the chakra in the third generation's body was naturally very normal, with no trace of being deceived by illusions at all.

I don’t wait for Hinata Yuzuru to have other guesses.

Sandai said nothing and just handed over a document again.

Hyuga Yuzuru took it with his own hands, only to see that the document was actually a "confession" written by Danzo himself.

Not only did it proactively acknowledge Konoha's various unprovoked persecutions against the Uchiha clan, it also directly stated that these actions were all secretly indicated by the Third Generation.

In addition, it also writes about Nebu's illegal human experiments for many years, the betrayal and assassination of Konoha colleagues, and many other shocking scandals...

At the end of the document, there was a sharp and sarcastic sentence from Uchiha Fugaku.

‘Sandaime-sama, what is the will of fire?’.

Kill people, but also kill your heart!

The three generations sat slumped in the office.

Hoarseness.

"Yuzuru! Konoha needs you!"

Hinata Yuzuru's pupils trembled slightly.

In his mind, he guessed the whole story in an instant, and he couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Danzo...self-destructed!

He was so crazy that in order to make Konoha lose its balance, he chose to be a self-destruct truck, trying to drag down the third generation and force him to take over for Uchiha.

At first glance, this scene seems to be harmful to others and not beneficial to Danzo at all.

But if you think about it more carefully - Uchiha has such a handle, is it really enough to just get these real powers!?

No, absolutely impossible!

Their ultimate goal is to use this as a step and the confession as a handle to, bit by bit, let the third generation hand over the appointment of the next Hokage to Uchiha!

However, will the people of Konoha like the Uchiha clan becoming Hokage?

Absolutely impossible!

It is impossible for three generations to do this!

The final result is that the fish will die and the net will be broken - Danzo is killing someone with a borrowed knife!

Just by doing this, do you still have a chance to become Hokage? Danzo!?

If you play like this, wouldn't it mean that your reputation will be ruined and you will have no way out!?

Hyuga Yuzuru couldn't believe it. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether this incident was part of Danzo's plan, or whether the Uchiha clan really got a handle on Danzo and used it to attack!

but no matter.

Something big happened!

"Where's Danzo?"

Hinata Yuzuru asked.

"Afraid of crime and fled without a trace." The three generations showed expressions of regret, but in the end, everything turned into a helpless sigh.

He sat silently in the office.

After a long time.

Take out a scroll filled with text.

Hinata Yuzuru lowered his head and looked at it. Just because of the first few words, he couldn't help but put a little force on his fingers.

"Provisional Appointment Letter"

His eyes quickly scanned the paper.

Finally, stay on the last few lines of text in the entire document.

'For all these reasons, we jointly recommend Konoha's genius jonin to be appointed as Konoha's temporary Hokage in times of crisis.'

'Signed: Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Monohan, Koharu Koharu, Yamazaka...'

After reading to the end, Hinata Yuzuru suddenly closed the scroll with some lingering fear. His first reaction was to throw this hot potato as far away as possible.

But at the end, he was holding the scroll tightly, his eyes inexplicable.

"Sandaime, are you...sure!?"

Sandai's hands were trembling a little as he took the pipe from the corner of his mouth.

Take off the hat.

There was a somewhat sad self-mockery on the old face.

"Konoha... must not leave it to Uchiha!"

Sandai took a deep breath, and then stared into Hinata Yuzuru's eyes with burning eyes.

"This is all my fault. It is my repeated indulgence of Danzo, my mishandling of the Uchiha clan, and my mismanagement of Konoha that have made Konoha what it is today.

Now that things have come to this, if you want to break the situation, you can only do the same as Danzo, put yourself to death and survive.

You and Shisui are life-and-death friends, and you have been in contact with Itachi since childhood. You are recognized by all the major families in Konoha, and Kakashi and other outstanding Jonin also have a close personal relationship with you.

If we say, who can win the final victory in this struggle...it must be you!

only...

Do you dare...accept this and accept your fate!?"

Hinata Yuzuru took a deep breath.

The thin scroll in front of me actually weighs a thousand catties at this moment.

"If you are willing to take over... the entire Sarutobi clan will also be willing to fight to the death for Konoha."

When the third generation spoke, his voice was gritted with teeth, filled with regret and sharp edge, and a hint of madness appeared on his usually calm face.

Hinata Yuzuru immediately understood his plan.

The third generation didn't completely intend to take the blame and get out of it.

But he lost his justice in front of Danzo's confession. If he continues to serve as Hokage, even if he wants to fight the Uchiha clan to the death, he will have no status.

As long as Uchiha says that he is secretly persecuting him, he will break his face. Uchiha has served Konoha for many years, but now he is in vain. How can the third generation convince the public?

Therefore, it is impossible for other ninjas to fight for him. Even if they win by chance, Konoha will be distraught and broken because of Danzo's confession.

But if he resigns and a new Hokage appears, everything in the hands of the Uchiha clan will be meaningless. If they dare to do something to the Hokage, they only need to be righteous and suppress the rebels with great momentum, which is justifiable.

Moreover, Hyuga Yuzuru is very popular, and with him in the position, Konoha can be united. Also, because he has a good relationship with many core figures in Uchiha, it can also make people within Uchiha unhappy.

If Uchiha still wants to get involved in the position of Hokage, he will not even hesitate to launch ZB.

He is just a retired elder of the Sarutobi clan.

At that time, as long as Hyuga Yuzuru gives an order, he can lead his tribe to fight to the death for the new Hokage. This is where justice lies! That confession is meaningless!

He took the blame and resigned.

Bow and admit your mistake.

What do you want to do with a confession?

"Just be quick!"

The third generation looked anxious and said seriously in a low voice: "If the handover cannot be completed quickly, the Uchiha clan may have other thoughts.

By that time, the Uchiha clan will be strong and strong, and Konoha will be leaderless. It is very likely that it will completely fall apart because of the position of Hokage!

Yuzuru...please!"

Under the white hair of the third generation, the cloudy eyes were full of expectation and pleading.

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the scroll in front of him.

I couldn't speak for a long time.

This move of the third generation is also gambling.

He was just betting that the Uchiha clan would not dare to directly resist.

The appointment letters of Uchiha Fugaku, Shisui, and Itachi have been written but have not yet been made public, which means that the acceptance of fate has not yet taken effect.

There is no doubt that these three acceptances of fate are Uchiha Fugaku's requirements - or in other words, exchanges.

Either give me real power now, or else three generations will be waiting to be impeached!

The third generation knew very well that if he continued to accept his fate, he would gradually embark on the path of being ostracized by the Uchiha clan. Even though it seemed that Shisui and Uchiha Fugaku were not the same, how could he dare to bet?

Once the Anbu, Roots, and Police Department are all given to the Uchiha clan, it won't be long before he, the Hokage, exists in name only!

And because this confession is here, the third generation is completely unable to counterattack, otherwise he will be impeached and removed from office, or else he will be cannibalized bit by bit by the Uchiha clan, with the goal of appointing the next Hokage.

But the third generation also has a way to break the situation.

That is to resign directly and hand over the Hokage to others.

If the Uchiha clan is unwilling to admit this temporary appointment letter and publishes a confession on the grounds that the third generation has been immoral, then their appointment based on the power of the third generation Hokage will be gone. The final result will be nothing more than being impeached.

, Konoha internal voting to determine the new Hokage, the Uchiha clan is 99% unlikely to be elected.

After the new Hokage took office, the Uchiha group who forced their predecessors to step down naturally found themselves in a more difficult situation.

By that time, the Uchiha clan will have no chance to get involved in the position of Hokage except directly launching a civil war.

But if the appointment of the third generation is recognized, the result will be different.

Even though there was a new Hokage, the Uchiha clan also gained the power of the Anbu, Roots, and Police Departments.

If the new Hokage wants to cancel their appointment without a suitable reason, it is against the rules, and the Uchiha clan will have an excuse and a sense of justice.

Although this is still an unacceptable fact for the Uchiha clan, it may even cause a counterattack.

But no matter what, it is the best move for Sandai right now.

He was betting, and he was betting on Uchiha. To be precise, Uchiha Fugaku didn't have the courage to fight to the death, and would only pinch his nose and take advantage before accepting the appointment of the new temporary Hokage.

And the new Hokage has no clues for them to control. After that, how to fight and how to fight depends on the abilities of both parties!

"...Are you so confident in me?"

Hinata Yuzuru grabbed the scroll in his hand, his brows still furrowed.

After taking a deep breath, Sandai stared at Hinata Yuzuru: "I... have it!"

Hinata Yuzuru lowered his eyes.

Perhaps Sandai is not as confident as he appears, but he really has no cards in his hand.

At present, only Hinata Yuzuru can go up, and there may be a glimmer of hope - Konoha cannot be destroyed, this is the bottom line for everything the third generation does.

After a long time, he raised his head.

"good."

Sandai raised the corners of his mouth at first, and then his smile became more and more prosperous. The lonely look in his eyes flashed away, but soon turned into expectation and solemnity.

He stood up and extended his hand to Hinata Yuzuru sincerely.

"Right now, Konoha is like an elephant standing on the edge of a cliff...if it can't stop here, it will inevitably fall into the abyss."

"Sorry, I'm an unqualified Hokage."

"The future of Konoha... is left to you."

Sandai's hand held tightly with Hinata Yuzuru's.

The two looked at each other and said nothing, but they seemed to have said a lot.

Hinata Yuzuru breathed a long sigh of relief, and his expression seemed to relax.

He said quietly to the third generation: "I want to become Hokage, but now I can't do it alone."

"I know, that's why there are so many old guys at the door, just like me, waiting for you."

After Sandai finished speaking, he smiled slightly.

He and Hinata Yuzuru walked to the door of the office, but all the Konoha elders were still there.

I saw Sandai coming out with a smile on his face.

After turning to bed, Koharu and Mito Katoyan looked at each other, feeling helpless and a little lonely.

Times have changed too fast.

They were completely unprepared to welcome a new Hokage.

But this matter cannot be delayed or delayed.

The purpose is to cut the knot quickly and make the Uchiha people recognize this matter by pinching their noses.

As for whether Hinata Yuzuru has this ability, he will change from temporary Hokage to official Hokage.

That depends on his ability.

If he really has this ability, he can be a good Hokage at the age of fourteen.

Then let him officially become Hokage.

In every Kirigakure village, there are people who become Mizukage at the age of fifteen.

It is not completely unreasonable for Konoha to have a super genius and take orders at the age of fourteen.

In fact, the third generation has no choice.

Kakashi? He seems to be addicted to novels and has become an abandoned house.

Jiraiya and Tsunade? When these two are found, he might have been impeached and stepped down!

Look left and look right.

He has both potential and strength, and he can convince the public.

Apart from Hinata Yuzuru, there is no other choice!

Moreover, Hyuga Yuzuru has a greater advantage than others - he seems to have a good relationship with Shisui and Itachi. Replacing him in power can greatly reduce the probability of the Uchiha clan directly revolting.

Wait until he has secured his position as temporary Hokage.

Then everyone will use their own methods.

"Dear seniors and elders of Konoha."

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the people in front of him.

Except for a few old people who went out to Konoha F4.

The elders of the Akimichi clan, Nara clan, Yamanaka clan, Aburame clan, and Inuzuka clan.

There are also some small family talkers.

At this moment, they all looked at Hinata Yuzuru.

A pair of considering, even doubtful eyes lingered on him.

Hinata Yuzuru just held her head high, calmly, and smiled lightly.

"Please give me more advice in the days to come."

Sandai walked behind him and nodded slightly.

The rest of the people responded proactively.

Hyuga Yuzuru doesn't feel sad at all just because he now looks like an agent of support from the third generation.

Quite the opposite.

At this moment, he felt a little excited for the first time in a long time.

The third generation took the trouble to introduce the group of old people in front of Hinata Yuzuru one by one. After both sides said a few words, the third generation took Hinata Yuzuru straight to the Hokage's secret office.

In a secret office underground.

The two chatted all night long.

Early the next morning.

A piece of shocking news was announced by the third generation.

Like a depth charge, it exploded in Konoha.

Amidst the turbulent waves.

It's like the news has wings.

Just a moment.

It spread throughout Konoha.

Uchiha Fugaku Cho serves as the root conductor!

Uchiha Shisui serves as the root captain.

Itachi Uchiha serves as the head of the Konoha Police Department!

at the same time.

Konoha's Hokage.

Also changed!

.....

"Snapped!"

There was a sudden cracking sound in the study of the Uchiha clan leader.

Uchiha Fugaku looked calmly at the teacup that fell to the ground in front of him and shattered on the ground.

Turn your head.

His expression didn't seem to change at all, and his voice was calm.

Just when speaking.

The sharp gaze in his pupils made the ninja who came to report in front of him break into a cold sweat.

"Report, report to the clan leader, the Third Hokage announced the appointment this morning...Due to physical discomfort, old age and frailty, he decided to resign, and with the joint recommendation of a group of elders, he jointly elected Yuzuru Hinata to be the leader.

Ye's temporary Hokage."

Uchiha Fugaku took a long breath.

Then spit it out for a long time.

"The other thing is the appointment letters for you and Itachi-sama. Lord Shisui went to the Hokage's office early in the morning, but he came back just now and got the appointment letters from ANBU..."

After hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku was speechless for a long time.

He unconsciously licked his suddenly dry lips.

He stood there for a long time.

"Call the clan elders for a meeting."

He closed his eyes and didn't open them for a long time.

Deep in my heart, there was both disbelief and unbearable vague anger.

He couldn't believe that the third generation could make such a decisive decision to resign and give up his position as Hokage.

He was angry because the Third Generation would rather let Yuzuru Hinata serve as the temporary Hokage than give the Uchiha clan any chance.

I'm threatening you.

That's right.

But you didn't do it?

You have done something wrong, and you have to pay the price - and what wrong did the Uchiha clan do to Konoha?

Why can't we become Hokage!?

Why!?

A long time passed.

Uchiha Fugaku opened his eyes.

He let out a long breath of evil breath.

But he hesitated again.

How to do?

He did not rush to the conference room, but stood in the study room, thinking motionlessly.

Could it be that the Uchiha clan really has to follow that path to become Hokage?

Things are coming to an end.

He only needs to give an order and he can immediately start preparing to launch the attack.

But he couldn't make up his mind.

Uchiha Fugaku was silent for a long time, then took steps towards the conference room.

Sitting in the conference room, many elders were noisy.

After listening for a while, he felt more and more upset.

Turning his head, he looked at Shisui and Itachi.

Shisui sat on one side, saying nothing and closing his eyes.

Itachi was quietly beside him, staring at the other elders in the conference room without showing any emotion.

His lips moved and he struggled to make a decision.

"That's it for now!"

"Since the Hokage is willing to give us the power of the Anbu, Roots, and Security Departments."

"It's enough to match the power of our Uchiha clan."

"As for the position of Hokage... let's first see how Hyuga Yuzuru performs."

Uchiha Fugaku made his decision.

Yes, now is not a good time.

Shisui and Itachi both have a close relationship with Hinata Yuzuru.

If you attack him, people will be distraught.

Uchiha Fugaku said to himself.

The rest of the Uchiha clan members stopped arguing when they heard the clan leader's words, and most of them looked satisfied.

This is the Anbu Security Department!

In Konoha, which other family has such great power!?

This is simply the most glorious and majestic moment in the history of the Uchiha clan!

Uchiha Fugaku ended the meeting.

But Shisui didn't leave.

He walked up to Uchiha Fugaku.

A pair of red Sharingan eyes slowly rotated.

Uchiha Fugaku calmly looked at him with his Sharingan.

Uchiha Shisui's face at this moment could not see the gentleness of the past. There was only a determination that made Uchiha Fugaku a little upset. He whispered at a volume that only the two of them could hear: "Although I don't know what you did, but

If you want to take action against Yuzuru..."

When Uchiha Shisui said this, he stopped saying anything, turned around and left.

Uchiha Fugaku was silent for a moment, with a vague murderous intention in his eyes.

When he came back to his senses, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly felt a little... at a loss.

He lowered his head and looked at his hands.

Is this really the right thing for me to do?

Become Hokage, become Hokage...

Uchiha Fugaku walked out of the conference room without knowing what he was thinking.

"Master Patriarch, please don't be impatient! With your power, it will be a matter of time before you become Hokage!"

"Glory to Uchiha!"

"Hmph, I really don't know what the third generation is thinking. The one named Hyuga Yuzuru is bragging everywhere that he is the number one genius in Konoha. What has he done? He fought with the fourth Kazekage, and he is considered a genius.

Yet?"

"If Shisui hadn't been there to help him, he might have been killed by the Fourth Kazekage."

"That is, he is still shameless enough to become the Fifth Hokage. Is he worthy of it?"

"In my opinion, he is just a temporary Hokage. When he officially accepts his fate, we Uchiha will never agree."

"In Konoha right now, who is more suitable to be the Hokage than Uchiha and Lord Fugaku?"

"It's just that they don't know the true power of the Uchiha clan at all..."

Every Uchiha person who passed by said encouraging and trusting words to him.

Uchiha Fugaku just nodded calmly in response.

Wait until you return to the study.

He silently looked at the fragments of the tea cup that had not been cleaned up on the ground.

There is no going back.

Isn't it?

...

At this time, the Uchiha family was not the only one who was noisy, excited, and started a meeting because of the several fates announced by the third generation in the morning.

The mountain clan and other big families.

The rest of the small family.

Even the Anbu, the root ninjas, the teachers of the ninja school, the students, the civilians...

Everyone is discussing this news.

Moreover, although the appointment information of the Uchiha clan seems a bit hard to accept.

But even more impactful.

Still a candidate for the new Hokage.

Hinata Yuzuru!?

How old is he this year?

Naruto?

Is Sandai crazy!?

But there was no other news from Konoha officials.

In just one day, the news flew throughout the entire ninja world as if it had wings.

Even the Daming Mansion of the Land of Fire even issued urgent documents because of this.

Wait until this document arrives in Konoha.

Hinata Yuzuru has been in the Hokage's office for two full days.

After accepting his fate and talking to the third generation in the underground facility.

He has been sitting in the Hokage's office and has never even returned home.

I just wrote a letter, briefly describing my situation, and had it sent home.

In the Hokage's office, under the guidance of the third generation, he worked day and night to complete the transfer of power.

Being a Hokage is really not a job that ordinary people can do.

It ranges from the diplomacy between the country and the Ninja Village to the tax system and construction planning in the village.

Everything needs to be judged and controlled by the shadow.

Hinata Yuzuru was really busy at the moment.

Just asking him to confirm, the documents to be handed over were piled on the table more than one meter high - it covered the whole table and was more than one meter high.

When this letter from the Fire Country's Daiming Mansion was delivered to his desk, he didn't have time to open it immediately. It was only after he had finished processing the accumulated documents that he could finally take a deep breath and sit up straight.

The third generation on the side was temporarily acting as his 'secretary' at the moment, helping him quickly familiarize himself with the work and complete the handover. Seeing his appearance, he couldn't help but smile.

"How's the Hokage job...?"

Hyuga Yuzuru raised his eyes. He was still wearing the kimono of the Hyuga family. He didn't even have time to prepare the robe that a Hokage should wear. He only had a hat that symbolized Hokage. The Sandaime had a new one and gave him one.

He didn't bother to put it on, so he just put it on the table.

Hearing Sandai's words, he opened the letter from Daming Mansion without raising his brows: "No wonder you age so fast."

"You guy..." The third generation didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't help but admired from the bottom of his heart: "However, your talent is really amazing - when the fourth generation took office, he was much older than you and earlier than you.

You have been exposed to a lot of government affairs, but your efficiency is much faster than when he first took office.

I originally thought that it would take at least a week for you to process just the documents that were handed over.

But now it seems... In a week at most, even I can move out of the office completely and leave all this to you."

Hinata Yuzuru put one hand on the side of his face, his silver hair was scattered, and his eyes looked a bit lazy: "If possible, I hope you can keep working for me until you are really admitted to the hospital."

The corners of Sandai's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that the other party was not joking.

Opening the letter, Hinata Yuzuru read it once and let out a sneer of unknown meaning. Then, he handed the letter to the third generation.

"Look, this is care from the Daming Mansion - it seems that they still like you, the old man, more."

The Sandaime received the letter from the Daming Mansion. It started with a message of care and greetings for the new Hokage, but at the end, it was the Sandaime who spoke both inside and outside the words. The meaning was simply that he hoped that the Sandaime could go to the Daming Mansion in person to explain.

What happened? If possible, it would be better to work for a few more years.

The third generation just read it and put it aside with a calm expression: "You just lack a chance to prove yourself... It doesn't matter, the temporary Hokage is also the Hokage. When you sort out the affairs of Konoha, I will personally discuss it with the elders.

Together, I'll go to Daming Mansion with you to formally accept my fate.

By then, you will be the legitimate Fifth Generation Hokage."

"Don't be in a hurry. There are some things where it would be more convenient for you to be a temporary Hokage. If I were anxious to officially become a Hokage, it would be easier for me to lose my temper."

Hinata Yuzuru turned to look at the document and asked: "The Uchiha clan is acting very calmly. It seems that what you are most worried about will not happen for the time being."

"You have to be careful, they won't stop here, and Danzo... he is definitely not a guy who will just disappear." When the third generation talked about Danzo, he still couldn't hide his hatred for him in his eyes.

That was clearly pouring dirty water on him - why was it that his third generation had done everything that happened to Danzo?

But there is a bit of truth in it...

The more Sandai thought about it, the angrier he became.

At the door, there was another knock on the door.

"Enter."

After Hyuga Yuzuru's words fell, a leader of a small Konoha family pushed in the door with a complicated expression. He was about to say something, but saw the third generation. He was stunned at first, and then quickly smiled and said: "Sandaime-sama, the fifth generation

Daime-sama, I just want to say hello..."

Hyuga Yuzuru looked at the visitor and just asked the other person's name with a smile. After the other person announced his name, he started to communicate with the other person in a gentle manner. In his words, he revealed his understanding of the other person's information without any trace.

, at the end of the words, expressed his goodwill towards the other party.

Seeing Yuzuru Hinata send off the little clan leader skillfully, the third generation couldn't help but laugh even more in admiration: "It looks like I can go back and rest?"

"If there were not three generations of adults who stood up for me these days and communicated with these families for me, it would have been difficult for me to sit here and handle official business honestly."

Hyuga Yuzuru looked at the third generation with a smile: "There are still five patriarchs of small families who have not been here. If the third generation is not in a hurry, he can stay for a while...it will not be too late to go back to rest after people's hearts have stabilized."

Sandai shook his head, smiled and said: "Okay."

The two of them fell into silence again, sinking into the tedious official duties.

The turmoil in Konoha gradually subsided under Hyuga Yuzuru's deliberate cold treatment.

Even though the Uchiha clan accepted many fates, nothing happened. Everything in Konoha remained as usual, and government affairs were in order.

Whether they were civilians or other large and small families, they gradually calmed down under the performance of Hyuga Yuzuru.

Hinata Yuzuru was still not in a hurry.

There were no new personnel transfers, no new government orders, not even individual interviews or meetings... So much so that some people began to wonder, has the Hokage really been replaced?

Because of the huge personnel changes that have taken place in Konoha, external people who are extremely concerned about Konoha, including major ninja villages, countries, and forces, have gradually accepted the facts during this month.

The large and small forces that originally decided to maintain a wait-and-see attitude due to the changes in Konoha quickly returned to normal, and all business activities in Konoha gradually returned to the right track.

Just at this moment.

The new temporary Hokage, the fifth generation Hokage, and Hyuga Yuzuru are as if they are invisible.

Suddenly in the evening, a meeting was held.

This meeting involved an extremely large number of people.

In an instant, it was as if another huge boulder had been dropped in the Konoha Village that had finally calmed down, causing splashes of water and ripples everywhere.

As big as Inarakacho, the head of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

As young as a commoner jounin who has a high reputation in Konoha and is extremely senior.

From the person in charge of the Ministry of Education to the head of the Konoha Torture Department.

It can be said that almost everyone who has more or less say in Konoha has received the notice from the ANBU.

Wearing a fifth generation bamboo hat and a Hyuga clan kimono, he came to the head seat of the conference room early and sat down.

Although the ninjas who received the notice were a little surprised and uncertain, they still followed the order and came one after another.

Hyuga Yuzuru smiled and said hello to everyone who came to the meeting. He knew everyone's name and detailed information by heart.

The meeting was scheduled to start at seven o'clock, but because there were so many people, it had to be postponed until 7:30.

The already very spacious conference room was now so full that not all of them could sit at the long table in the conference room. Some of the lower-status people could only sit on the chairs that had been brought in, leaning against the wall.

Hyuga Yuzuru sat at the front seat, looking at the group of ninjas, which numbered fifty people, and smiled slowly.

"Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting."

Hinata Yuzuru grabbed the hat with one hand and placed it on the table, revealing her dazzling silver hair.

He crossed his hands and put them in front of himself. He started with a few words in an unhurried manner.

"In recent times, you all have met with me, and you have gotten to know each other more or less.

It has been a month since the Third Generation-sama had to nominate me as the temporary Hokage due to sudden physical discomfort a month ago.

During this month, I forgot about food and sleep, worked day and night on official duties, and learned about the situation in Konoha, fearing that I would let down the expectations of the Sandaime and everyone else.

When I come back to my senses and look back at my performance this month, I don’t know how you will evaluate it, but as far as I feel: I did pretty well.”

Hinata Yuzuru smiled, and some people below him also smiled at the right time.

The third generation was no longer the former Hokage, but the elder of the Sarutobi clan. He was participating in the meeting. He was sitting in the crowd and looked at Hinata Yuzuru with a smile. After he finished speaking, he nodded appropriately to express his approval.

Hinata Yuzuru looked at the expressions of everyone in the conference room without leaving any trace.

Someone peeked at Uchiha Fugaku's expression at this moment, smiling awkwardly.

There were people at this moment, like three generations, smiling at him and agreeing with his words.

There are also some, like the leader of the Aburame clan, who just sit with their eyes and nose in mind, like a stone Buddha.

In just a short moment, Hinata Yuzuru's white eyes captured everyone's expressions.

He was sitting alone in the front seat. Although his face was smiling at this time, as the white eyes activated, white arcs of light seemed to flash around the pupils of his eyes, and his sharp eyebrows made some people unconsciously look away.

"However, there are some things that still need to be said."

"I am the temporary Hokage of Konoha, but Konoha is not the Hokage's Konoha. No matter whether I handle my official duties well or not, or whether the approval opinions I give are appropriate or not, the implementation still depends on your personal efforts."

"Please allow me to first express my appreciation to a few seniors."

"Shisui-senpai."

Uchiha Shisui was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously cheered. Although he had been friends for many years, when he sat in the Hokage's seat, he subconsciously regarded himself as a subordinate, not a friend.

"Because I became Hokage, Konoha's internal affairs are still somewhat unstable.

To be able to intercept the spies from the remaining ninja villages outside the village during such a period, when the power of the ANBU has also changed, and to have external intelligence still sent to my office on time, the ANBU is under great pressure during this period.

big.

As the commander-in-chief of the ANBU, it is really not easy for you to exert your abilities to the best of your ability at this moment."

Facing Hinata Yuzuru's praise in the conference room, he was a little overwhelmed. He just stood up hurriedly, bowed respectfully and said: "This is my duty, Lord Godaime."

Hinata Yuzuru listened to him calling her sir, and looked at him calmly. After a while, he smiled: "Thank you for your contribution to Konoha, but I still like to hear you call me by my name."

"Yes, Go...Yuzuru-sama." After he sat down, he looked at Hinata Yuzuru with complicated eyes, but couldn't help turning his head and looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who had a calm expression.

Uchiha Fugaku looked calm at this time.

"There's also Itachi who's in charge of the Konoha Police Department, who's in charge of the Administration Department..."

Hinata Yuzuru read out the names of the ninjas one by one in a calm and gentle tone.

The originally slightly impetuous atmosphere in the conference room gradually calmed down because of his calm and peaceful voice.

But, after all these good words are said.

Hinata Yuzuru raised the teacup and took a sip of tea.

After putting down the teacup, his eyes changed vaguely.

Even though he didn't say a word at this moment and his sitting posture never changed, most of the people here are elites of the ninja world who have experienced the baptism of war, so they are naturally very sensitive to changes in momentum.

When a pair of eyes came into contact with Hinata Yuzuru's blue eyes, what he felt was a horrifying aura brewing out of him bit by bit.

Even the voice remains calm.

When you can hear it.

But it gradually became deafening.

"But some people disappoint me."

"For example, several senior people in charge of finance in the Administration Department have been unable to submit a report that satisfies me until now."

Hyuga Yuzuru calmly tapped the table with his fingers: "There are also a few seniors in the administrative department who are responsible for ninja commissions... It's just a complete list that should be recorded on time. Why, just one

You can’t even pay it in for months?”

"There are still some seniors who are passive and inefficient, so I won't name them one by one."

"Just wanted to ask..."

"I can't do this job well."

"Still, don't want to do it?"

With a smile on his face, he looked at the ninjas sitting in the corner.

Suddenly, the conference room fell into dead silence.

The three-generation old god looked at his fingers, as if he could see flowers in the calluses.

Uchiha Fugaku raised his head slightly and stared at the ceiling.

Hinata Hizashi looked at his son with a smile on his face, with pride and relief in his eyes. At this moment, he just helped him look at the named ninjas with his eyes, and his expression became serious and dignified.

"Uh... I'm sorry, I never thought before that I would be inspected so early, so some documents haven't been sorted out yet, and some haven't been recorded yet, so..." The patriarch of a small family looked embarrassed.

.

"Then it's not good?" Hinata Yuzuru just stared at him faintly.

The little clan leader opened his mouth, then finally made up his mind and looked at Hinata Yuzuru: "It will definitely be done before tomorrow night."

Hinata Yuzuru just continued to stare at him until he started to sweat, and then he looked away.

He smiled again.

"Of course, in fact, I don't intend to make any comments on the previous work. After all, the previous situation is the previous situation, and every Hokage has different styles and even systems."

He raised his tea cup and before drinking the tea, he left behind the issues that really needed to be discussed in this meeting.

"I think that with Konoha's current administrative system, the efficiency between various departments is not efficient enough, and the connections between them are not close enough.

I intend to start the reform from the Administrative Department and refine the general Administrative Department. Among them, the responsibilities of the Ministry of Finance, the Personnel Management Department and other departments will be planned in a more detailed and independent manner...

After that, it is possible to rectify more departments, which may include streamlining, integration, splitting..."

He began to talk freely.

Some are happy, some are sad.

But surprisingly, no one expressed any opinions on this.

After Hinata Yuzuru finished speaking, after a while, when no one spoke, he narrowed his eyes and took a sip of tea.

"Of course, everything must be done slowly and little by little.

Later, during the reform process, seniors can communicate with me if they have any objections.

However, there is one thing that I can promise you in advance.

Even though I don’t know when I, the temporary Hokage, will be able to become a full-time official, or when I will step aside to make way for someone better.

But as long as I'm still sitting in the office one day.

Konoha employs people regardless of qualifications, origin, or background.

The capable ones go up, the mediocre ones go down.

I wonder if you all have any opinions on this matter?"

The meaning behind this statement is profound.

"As long as the reform is well-founded and beneficial to Konoha, I am willing to support the Fifth Generation." It was actually the Nara clan leader among the Inorakacho trio who expressed his opinion first.

He smiled and nodded slightly to Hinata Yuzuru. Even though he was a little surprised that the other party took the fifth generation seat at such a young age, he was a smart man.

As the squad leader of Konoha's Jonin class, and in a sense, Nara Shikaku's speech is equivalent to the commander-in-chief of Konoha's strongest armed force. This speech can be said to be of great weight.

The Yamazaka clan and the Akimichi clan immediately followed suit and issued a similar statement.

The rest of the small families, even though their hearts were complicated and inexplicable, at this moment, they no longer dared to delay, and immediately expressed their sincerity and followed the footsteps of the big family to show their loyalty to the Hokage.

The last person to speak was Uchiha Fugaku.

Uchiha Fugaku smiled slightly and looked at the eyes that were looking at him from all directions at this moment. He just turned his head and looked at Hinata Yuzuru: "If it is true that the capable are superior and the mediocre are inferior, then the Uchiha clan will certainly do its part."

Hinata Yuzuru returned the smile and said softly: "I'm looking forward to it."

The two people's eyes crossed.

After retracting his gaze, Hinata Yuzuru leaned back slightly, sitting comfortably and relaxed, with a smile on his face: "I thought I would have to chat with you for a long time, but since everyone agrees to adjust some of Konoha's power structure, then I have nothing to do with it.

Something to say.

Of course, in private, if you have any suggestions or plans, you can come to the office to see me.

Right now, Konoha is still dominated by stability."

This is a preview of his short-term administrative style and what he will do.

And the reason why this matter can be implemented without causing any backlash or rejection is naturally very simple.

Uchiha.

The storm brewing in Konoha right now makes anyone who understands the situation feel like a ray of light is behind them.

No one wants to be Uchiha's scapegoat, the chicken that the new fifth generation kills to scare the monkeys.

In the end, no one knows what Konoha will become, but no matter what, it seems that this young fifth generation is unexpectedly popular.

Ino Shikacho, Hinata, and Sarutobi, these five families stand behind him, making his power look extremely terrifying. Even though most people are still a little unfamiliar with him and don't know his specific abilities and skills, but

Just the fact that Sandai is willing to endorse him is enough to make most people willing to take orders from him first.

As for the future, how long can he stay in this position, and whether he can even become a permanent member...

Just take it one step at a time.

In the conference room, a kind of ninja became relaxed and polite with him. Everyone exchanged a few words with each other and then directly dismissed the meeting.

It seems that this meeting is very grand, but the thunder is loud and the rain is small, which seems to be a waste of time.

But in fact, it was extremely effective in formally establishing the "Interim Hokage" regime of Yuzuru Hyuga, preventing everyone from swinging and confirming each other's attitudes.

This meeting went surprisingly smoothly.

But it made several people happy.

Several families are worried.

The ones who are happy are naturally the direct descendants of the ‘Fudaime’ headed by the Hyuga clan.

Those who are worried are not only the Uchiha clan, but also some small and medium-sized families who have been warned by Hyuga Yuzuru's words or hints in his eyes.

Yuzuru Hyuga seemed to be discussing restructuring during the meeting.

In fact, it is a threat.

What kind of things are good for those who are capable and inferior for those who are mediocre?

In other words, for Naruto, what is ability and what is mediocrity?

This is a very interesting judgment question.

After the meeting, Hyuga Yuzuru stayed with some heads of families and chatted for a while. He showed a particularly friendly attitude towards the three major families, Inokacho and the Nara clan. He praised the Nara clan in more than one sentence.

The wisdom of the Nara clan even expressed sincerely that it would be great if teachers from the Nara clan could serve in the Ministry of Education.

Nara Shikama knew the elegance after hearing the string song for a long time. After hearing the news about the restructuring and then hearing his praise, he immediately felt the importance and expectations that Yuzuru Hinata had for him. He was a little surprised, but he was even more delighted, and his attitude became more cordial.

Got up.

Even among the veteran ninjas of Konoha, Hinata Yuzuru still stood out. With his tall body and calm and easy-going temperament, he already had exactly what a Hokage should look like, even compared to the third generation of the year.

, it seems that he is also good at dancing and is able to do it with ease.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at him, feeling a little sour in his heart. He sighed and took the initiative to step forward and say hello to him with a smile. Then he clasped his hands behind his back and watched from behind as he left with a slightly desolate look.

Uchiha Fugaku didn't even do superficial work.

He just smiled and nodded to Hinata Yuzuru, and left directly without any intention of chatting more.

Shisui and Itachi did not stay long, but expressed congratulations to him when passing by him, and then followed Uchiha Fugaku away.

The meeting ended early, but the chat continued for a long time. Hyuga Yuzuru made appointments with the heads of the families one after another, promising that they would definitely take the time to have a good chat with them. When they were free, they would come back.

Go to Konoha's office.

It was already around nine o'clock in the evening.

He sat on the chair in the office and breathed a sigh of relief.

The brightly lit office was empty, except for the slight sound of the hands on the clock on the wall.

In the corridor outside the office of the Hokage Building, there were only two ANBU who were still standing guard outside the door dutifully, or in other words, waiting for orders at any time.

Hinata Yuzuru turns the swivel chair.

Sit on the chair and look out the window.

In the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the dimly lit Konoha village is located in front of you.

He stretched out his hand, as if he could hold the village in front of him with one hand. Until the dust settled, it still felt a bit like a dream.

"The Godaime...Hokage?"

Turning to look at the clock.

It seems that I haven't gone home for a month.

Ever since I was called to the Hokage's office in a hurry to take immediate orders.

Take over the mess at hand.

Not to mention going home, even my close friends only had a few business-related chats and received congratulations.

This hasty process made him somewhat lacking in reality.

In the dead of night, he casually formed a shadow clone and sat at the desk instead of himself, correcting documents, while he stood in front of the window, staring at the scenery of Konoha, lost in thought.

Today, he is able to achieve his current position like pie in the sky, all thanks to one person.

Danzo.

And Danzo, where is he now?

With his ability, logically speaking, there should be no chance that the Uchiha clan would catch him.

Hinata Yuzuru has thought about it many times, but she still prefers that all of this is a step in Danzo's "road to Hokage".

So, while he helped the Uchiha clan ascend to a high position, he forced himself to become a rebellious nin worth fifty million ryo, and now he has disappeared.

What are you planning again?

Do you simply hope that you will break up with the Uchiha, or even have a decisive battle with the Uchiha clan?

What good would that do to him? Or does he think that the Uchiha clan can die with him very accurately, and then make room for him?

Now that he is in Konoha, it is no longer possible for him to become Hokage?!

Hyuga Yuzuru stared at the bright moon outside the window. The natural energy around him was almost all the time, and was slowly absorbed by his body.

"Ontology, look at this."

Turning his head, Hinata Yuzuru took a document handed over by the shadow clone.

There weren't many words on the document, but it made him curl up his lips.

[Sannin Jiraiya has received the news and is returning to Konoha]

Moral support from many, scant support.

I just don’t know the path I’m taking.

Can this ninja hero be allowed to stay?

He breathed a long sigh of relief and patted the shadow clone on the shoulder.

"Leave it to you, I'm going home to rest for a day."

"Yes, yes." The shadow clone glanced at him helplessly, working hard without complaint.

Hinata Yuzuru picked up the Hokage hat on the table, stared at it for a moment, chuckled, and put it on his head.

He opened the door, nodded slightly to the ANBU on both sides, and left the Hokage Building leisurely.

The Fifth Hokage?

Sit in this position.

I didn't expect it to be easy.

Danzo, the head of the Fugaku clan...

You have picked the wrong opponent.

At the same time that he was covered with stars and moon, he decided to go home and have a good rest for a day.

Within the Land of Rain.

Danzo, his good brother whom he cherishes deeply, is suffering because of him.

.....

"Danzo..."

Uchiha Obito looked at Danzo who was performing surgery. Even he couldn't help but feel a little surprised by the persistence of the man in front of him.

At this moment, Danzo's arm and heart had turned pale in color, and his body was connected to densely packed instruments. Several root ninjas who were taken away by him were allowed to inject various strange liquids into his body.

"Hyuga Yuzuru's role as Hokage went smoothly?"

Danzo was lying on the operating bed, his voice was hoarse, and the dozen Sharingan eyes on his right arm were opening and closing strangely, like breathing fish gills.

Obito folded his hands in front of him, and the one eye under the mask stared at his arm that was being transformed.

"yes.

Uchiha Fugaku is, as I said, unusable.

Even if he was given enough opportunities, he would not dare to take the final step."

After listening to Obito's words, Danzo just sneered gloomily: "It doesn't matter, the seeds of ambition have been planted, they will bloom and bear fruit. It's just a matter of time. Uchiha Madara, you left too early and don't understand.

For the ninjas of Ye, how tempting is the position of Hokage?"

Uchiha Obito remained silent.

Naruto?

When he was young, he also dreamed of becoming a Hokage recognized by everyone.

It's a pity that now...

"Is this why you did this? Just for the sake of being the Hokage, you often make ugly appearances."

Uchiha Obito's mocking tone did not waver Danzo in the slightest. He let out a weird low laugh and said, "Yeah, me too..."

"You'd better hope that your plan works - if you can't get the Kyuubi in two years, there's no way we can support you to become the new Hokage of Konoha."

After Uchiha Obito finished speaking, Danzo continued to laugh deeply.

"Don't worry...even if you can't get the Nine Tails, you can at least get two tailed beasts. For you, isn't this enough? What's more, capturing the Nine Tails is not about my ability, but about my ability.

About your mysterious leader.

I will only create opportunities, whether you can seize them or not is your problem.

All I care about is whether you can kill Hinata Yuzuru."

Uchiha Obito raised his eyebrows: "Are you so sure that the Uchiha clan cannot kill him?"

"It would be great if Uchiha Fugaku could do this..."

"Unfortunately....."

Danzo's eyes were full of fear. If others didn't understand, how could he understand?

He has never seen a person like Hyuga Yuzuru in his life, who becomes stronger as easily as eating and drinking.

What's even more frightening is that the speed at which this guy is getting stronger seems to have no end in sight.

Every time I see him, he will have new growth and transformation speed, as fast as a monster.

Uchiha Obito narrowed his eyes.

He was thoughtful, and his fear of Hinata Yuzuru was also even greater.

If not even the Uchiha clan can successfully deal with him.

Then do it yourself.

Fortunately, the seeds are almost grown.

In a year or two, it will be time to harvest.

I'm really looking forward to it...

The little girl's desperate expression.

Obito let out a deep laugh, and his figure gradually disappeared: "I'm looking forward to your plan..."

It wasn't until he disappeared that the root ninjas who were so loyal that they even defected with Danzo couldn't help but whisper in a low voice: "Duanzo-sama, be careful of each other..."

"I know." Danzo's voice became hoarse, and he clenched and then let go of one hand unconsciously.

After a long time, he whispered: "Let's start the last procedure."

"Danzo-sama, do you really want to do this? This... the probability of this operation is too low!"

The ninja's hands were trembling slightly.

Danzo stared at him indifferently: "I will not fail."

The root ninja couldn't say anything more. He could only take a deep breath and hold up a strangely colored potion.

Then, it was injected into Danzo's blood vessel.

In an instant, the muscles all over his body seemed to be stimulated, tightening tightly, and then loosening. The flesh and blood in his body seemed to have life, sometimes twisting, sometimes limp, Danzo let out a painful low groan, and his body

Half of his body modified by Bai Zetsu provided him with huge vitality, and the Sharingan on his arm opened and closed from time to time.

During the operation, from time to time, one of the Sharingan eyes would permanently lose its power and close completely.

But Danzo just let out a painful, beast-like howl, which echoed in the hidden cave for a long time.

"Hinata...Yuzuru!"
