The Rise of the Uchiha

Konoha Hokage Building

"In the thrilling and brutal Third Ninja World War that just ended, the once prosperous and powerful Konoha Village suffered heavy losses! At this moment, people were in a heavy and sad mood, and the whole village was filled with a sense of sadness and despair.

Just when it was silent, a low and majestic voice suddenly sounded:"Sarutobi Hiruzen, this war has caused such tragic consequences, you must take responsibility for it!" Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Danzo stepped forward and accused him righteously.

For a moment, the whole scene fell into a suffocating silence. No one dared to break this silence easily.

It is true that Konoha Village won the final victory in this war, but it was at the cost of the lives of countless brave warriors. Faced with the enemy's siege, Konoha Village had to stubbornly resist the strong pressure from four countries on its own. Although this war was nominally a melee, in fact, Konoha Village suffered huge sacrifices and injuries.

What is even more heartbreaking is that those young ninjas who have not yet completed their studies and are not yet fully grown are also forced to join the battlefield and face the cruel and ruthless killing. However, only a few children can survive and return to their hometown, as if they were helpless by the throat of fate.

These children should have a bright future, but they experienced the test of life and death prematurely in the flames of war. Their dreams and hopes were obscured by the smoke of gunpowder, leaving only endless pain and longing for their family and friends.

However, Konoha made such a great sacrifice, but it did not gain anything.

Many ninjas died in this battle.

Someone has to be responsible for this!

And Sarutobi Hiruzen is the most suitable person.

Despite Danzo's accusation, Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe expressionlessly, and in the faint firelight, the smell of tobacco filled the room.

""Hu~"

With the sound of Sarutobi Hiruzen's exhalation, waves of purple smoke surrounded him.

Utane Koharu frowned slightly. However, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's cold face, even Danzo was tense and didn't say much, let alone Utane Koharu.

After a moment of silence……

"This war is my responsibility as Hokage. I will resign as Hokage."

"I recommend Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas!" Danzo Shimura said calmly,"Orochimaru performed brilliantly in this Ninja World War, and he is capable of leading the village to change. Konoha may be rejuvenated in his hands." Danzo Shimura

's remarks made Sarutobi Hiruzen frown and ponder in his heart. In his opinion, Orochimaru is not good enough, and it is too easy for him to get out of his control. Although Orochimaru is his disciple, he sometimes cannot see through him. Sarutobi

Hiruzen recommends Minato Namikaze, the elite ninja of Konoha known as the 'Yellow Flash'

"Namikaze Minato is too young!" Danzo Shimura gritted his teeth and retorted indignantly.

How could he be willing to hand over the position of Hokage, especially to a person who had such a close relationship with Sarutobi Hiruzen. In Danzo's heart, only by letting Orochimaru take over as Hokage can Konoha follow the wishes of Shimura Danzo and realize a new reform.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen also understood Shimura Danzo's ambition.

He stared at Shimura Danzo with a torch-like gaze, and said righteously:"Minato not only won a great victory in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, but also strongly promoted the end of the Third Ninja World War. In addition, with his own outstanding strength, he successfully blocked thousands of ninjas from Iwagakure Village alone. If even he is not qualified for the position of Hokage, then who else is qualified?"

Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En nodded subconsciously. They all knew that if Orochimaru became Hokage, they might have nothing to do.

"I object!"

Shimura Danzo gritted his teeth and objected

"Let the daimyo decide this matter.

"Seconded!""Seconded,"

Shimura Danzo looked at everyone unwillingly. The

Third Hokage had expected everyone to second the motion.

As the others talked, Konoha's plan after the Third Ninja World War was clearly laid out.

A few days later, the news that Minato Namikaze would succeed the Fourth Hokage spread throughout Konoha Village.

……

""From now on, I'm in your hands, the Fourth Generation!"

Above the Konoha Hokage Building, an old man and a young man completed the handover of the highest power in Konoha Village. Above the Konoha Hokage Building, stood an old man and a young man. The old man had a kind face, with wisdom and determination in his eyes; the young man was heroic, with a focused and confident expression. Their figures looked particularly solemn in the sun.

The old man patted the young man's shoulder gently, with a tone of entrustment:"From now on, I'm in your hands, the Fourth Generation!" These simple words carry the future of Konoha Village and the expectations of countless people.

The young man straightened his body, his eyes looking firmly into the distance, as if declaring his determination to the entire Konoha Village. He knew that from this moment on, he would shoulder the responsibility of protecting Konoha.

The wind blew quietly, blowing up their sleeves. In this quiet moment, the highest power in Konoha Village was handed over. A new era has begun, and the figures of the old and the young will be... Nagakaze Minato took over the bamboo hat that belonged exclusively to the Hokage with a serious expression.

‘Don't worry, the Third Generation Master.

Minato Namikaze came to the crowd

‘From today on, I am the fourth Hokage.'

At that exciting moment, the crowd burst into warm cheers. The sound was like thunder, resounding throughout the space. People's faces were filled with joy and excitement, and they released their emotions to their heart's content.

The cheers were mixed with various sounds, including screams, shouts, and cheerful laughter. Everyone was immersed in this warm atmosphere.���As if they had forgotten everything. They waved their arms, their eyes flashing with excitement.

Some people jumped up with excitement, their body language was full of vitality; some people held each other's hands tightly, sharing the joy of this moment; and some people burst into tears, deeply moved. This cheer was a response to a wonderful moment, a cheer for victory, or a vision of a better future.

The whole scene seemed to be shrouded in a powerful energy, and people's enthusiasm gathered into a sea of joy, pushing the atmosphere to a climax. This warm cheer echoed for a long time and became an indelible memory.

Uchiha Yan stood quietly in the crowd, his eyes passed over the crowd and fell on Namikaze Minato. Namikaze Minato stood tall and firm, standing out from the crowd.

Uchiha Yan's eyes revealed a complex emotion. Namikaze Minato seemed to feel Uchiha Yan's gaze, he turned his head to look at Uchiha Yan, and the two's eyes met in the air. At that moment, time seemed to freeze, everything around became blurred, leaving only the two of them looking at each other.

In that brief eye contact, Uchiha En saw the confidence and determination in Namikaze Minato's eyes.
