The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

With Hanzo's successful re-election, Konoha's new high-level list has also been freshly released.

It can be seen that in the list, the top core members remain as they are, and the three advisory elders are still served by Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara and Kurama Solan.

But in addition, there have been considerable changes in the elders responsible for the following ministries.

Judging from the list, the biggest loser is undoubtedly the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Izuna resigned as the elder in charge of the mission department, and was succeeded by Uzumaki Mito, Senju Hashirama's wife. The mission department immediately fell into the hands of the Senju clan.

In addition, Hanzo established a new Ministry of Finance outside the six major departments, separating financial work from the logistics department.

This was Hanzo's plan all along.

The reason why the Ministry of Finance was not established when the village was founded was mainly because the village was still in its infancy and most departments did not have a lot of work. On the contrary, they were extremely short of staff.

Separating two departments is not only a waste of manpower, but also reduces the work efficiency of the two departments due to wrangling.

But now, as the village gradually gets on the right track, the scope of work of the logistics department has become larger and larger.

Those who manage money are also in charge of procurement and warehousing, which can easily lead to corruption. For specific examples, you can refer to the history of Hanzo's previous life, the Shaofu of the Han Dynasty or the Internal Affairs Bureau of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, Hanzo has been wary of this for a long time.

It has not been long now, and this situation has not happened yet, but it is foreseeable that if the power of the Logistics Department is not restricted, then in the future, sky-high price ninja tools, sky-high price detonating talismans and the like will inevitably come out.

That's why Hanzo chose this moment to separate financial rights from the logistics department.

After the Logistics Department was split, the original head of the Logistics Department, Takeuma Senju, was transferred to the head of the Finance Department because of his outstanding financial work.

As for the castrated logistics department, Hanzo handed it over to Hyuga Yasuji, the current spokesman for the Hyuga clan.

After going around in circles for so long, the Hyuga clan finally returned to the top ranks. This can be regarded as the reward of the Shimada clan for following the Hyuga clan for many years.

The Hyuga clan is also very satisfied with this.

Previously, the leader of the Hyuga clan was the Zong family, which had few core members, so it was naturally suitable for the noble position of advisor elder.

But for branches with many members, specific departments such as the logistics department are more favored by them.

As for the Senju clan, although they have lost part of the power of the Logistics Department, they have gained a lucrative position in the Mission Department, and their influence in Konoha has further increased, and they have counterpressed the Uchiha clan.

After the Jonin Conference ended, Madara, Izuna and Kazuya left the conference hall together with an expressionless expression.

"Brother..."

After leaving the conference hall, Izuna wanted to try to say something, but Madara waved his hand and said: "Go back, it's just a little power, it's nothing."

To be honest, Madara really doesn't care much about this loss.

To be fair, if he and Hanzo swapped roles, he would definitely kick the Shimada clan out of the top management without hesitation this time, leaving Hanzo at most as an empty consultant.

After such a comparison, Madara felt as if he had made a profit. Furthermore, he understood just now that as long as the strength of the Uchiha clan did not decline, they would always have a place in the top ranks of Konoha. In this case, he had nothing to worry about.

It is better to focus on practicing.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at his younger brother and said, "Quannai, it just so happens that you have resigned from the position of elder. Why not spend more time on cultivation."

Quan Nai was stunned for a moment by Madara's meaningless words. After a moment, she said in a strange way: "I understand, brother."

…

Konoha's first election ended smoothly, which also made the entire ninja world breathe a sigh of relief.

Hanzo has been in power for five years, and his style and philosophy of governance have become almost familiar to all ninja villages in various countries.

Everyone knows that although the first Hokage likes to dig holes, he is not a radical. During the five years in power, the various policies implemented were mainly to promote peace and development.

Including during the annual Five Kage Conference, Hanzo has also elaborated on his ideas many times, hoping that each shinobi village will focus on improving people's livelihood and economy.

With Konoha's current strength, such a Hokage would make all countries breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that Hanzo has been successfully re-elected, everyone is naturally good to me.

Including the Konoha Village, everyone is returning to their homes. The situation that had some undercurrents has calmed down, and the village seems to have returned to the peaceful three years of the past.

"Hao, Ryoka, congratulations on your promotion to Jonin."

In the Hokage's office, Hanzo officially approved the promotion of Uchiha Hiroshi and Senju Ryoka to Jonin after reading their mission resumes.

"Hey, it's still slower than that guy Masaki." Ryoka Senju curled her lips in a low voice.

"Ryoka!"

Next to him, Uchiha Hao quickly stopped him.

In his opinion, it was okay to talk about it in private, but it was really rude to mention this in front of the Hokage.

"It doesn't matter." Hanzo waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "It's good to have some healthy competition among ninjas in the village."

After hearing this, Ryoka glanced at Uchiha Hao proudly, and quietly made a "yeah" gesture, which made Uchiha Hao helpless for a while.

"Okay, your files have been corrected." Hanzo returned the files of the two of them to them and said: "After you file it with Genji, you can go to the logistics department to get the jounin vest. Of course, you can wear it or not.

It’s up to you.”

"Thank you, Hokage-sama." Uchiha Hiroshi and Senju Ryoka took the file and then saluted together.

But before the two of them could go out, the door to the Hokage's office was pushed open again, and this time it was Masaki who walked in.

"Masaki?"

"Hao, Ryoka?"

Masaki's expression looked very surprised, but seeing the files in their hands, Masaki, who had only experienced this scene a few months ago, didn't know what the two were doing?

"Congratulations, Hao, Ryoka." Masaki smiled and walked forward. After being promoted to chunin, the three of them were assigned by the village as teammates for each mission. Although they occasionally did missions together, they were not as good as when they were genin.

We are inseparable every day.

Therefore, Masaki did not know before that his two old teammates would be promoted to Jonin today.

But after the congratulations, Masaki became proud again: "But it's still a little worse than me."

"Hey, why are you so proud?" Liangxiang looked like she wanted to beat him up, but after all, they were in the Hokage's office, so the three of them didn't let go of the fight.

Looking at the appearance of the three of them, Hanzo's mood improved a lot. He interrupted at the right time: "You three are here just in time. I have a task to assign to you."

"oh?"

The three of them turned around at the same time and looked at Hanzo.

You know, general tasks are arranged by the task department, and tasks that need to be arranged by the Hokage must be at least S-level.

Of course, for missions that require three Jonin to go out together, it is normal to have an S-rank person.

Upon thinking of this, the three people's expressions became serious, and they quietly waited for Hanzo's next words.
