The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

In the blink of an eye, the war has been over for several days. With Madara Uchiha dead and Kaguya Otsutsuki being sealed, the top leaders of the major ninja villages returned to their villages after a brief celebration.

The alliance of the five major ninja villages has survived as Hanzo originally planned. Because of this, each major ninja village currently has an elder-level representative stationed in Konoha, who is responsible for liaising with Konoha as the leader of the alliance.

However, the affairs between the top leaders of the five major ninja villages cannot affect the restoration of peace to the lives of ordinary people and ordinary ninjas in the ninja world.

Although the war provoked by Uchiha Madara was huge, for these ordinary people, three meals a day was obviously much more important than these gossips that were very far away from them, because this war also affected them.

Due to the expansion of the roots of the sacred tree, many buildings in cities and villages collapsed to varying degrees. Fortunately, when the buildings collapsed, everyone had been hung up by the sacred tree, but there were no major casualties.

It's a blessing among misfortunes.

But even so, for many people who are struggling to have enough food and clothing, this is still a very heavy blow. But at this time, the famous mansions of the five major countries are deep in internal strife and unable to fulfill their responsibilities.

The lord's responsibility is to provide relief to the people under his rule.

As for the reason why the daimyo were involved in internal strife, it was naturally due to the death of the daimyo. The die-hard forces and careerists of the original daimyo in various countries criticized each other and had no intention of caring about relief.

In the end, after going round and round, the five great ninja villages seized this opportunity. While distributing relief, they also sent ninjas from their respective villages to help the people build houses for free. In addition, Hanzo also acted with Hashirama to sort out the recovery.

Looking at the earth that was tortured by the sacred tree.

After a set of combination punches, the five great ninja villages gained a reputation among the people, and the plan to replace the five great nations was quietly advanced.

But behind this vigorous and resolute approach, there is a price...

"Sir Hokage, this is our village's financial report for this year. I remind you that you'd better be prepared."

Fire Country, Konoha Village, Hokage's Office.

As the elder in charge of Konoha's finance department, Senju Takeoka pushed open the door and walked in, holding a thick financial statement in his hand and throwing it on the desk in front of Hanzo. An old face full of wrinkles was full of dissatisfaction.

.

Hanzo sitting in the Hokage's office is naturally just a shadow clone. As for Hanzo's true body? At this moment, he is still combing the earth with Hashirama throughout the ninja world.

Seeing the unhappy look on Senju Takeoka's face, Hanzo could only smile with his face. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to pull the report in front of him and started browsing.

The content of the report is as expected. What follows the thin income report is a thick piece of expenditure data. In simple terms, it means that the fiscal deficit of Konoha Village this year has reached a quite exaggerated level, perhaps to express anger.

? Senju Takeoka also marked the final calculated deficit in red ink very conspicuously, as if he was afraid that Hanzo wouldn't be able to see it.

But he was obviously overly worried. As the only blood successor in the world, Hanzo, even though he did not possess the pupil technique, there was still nothing wrong with Hanzo's eyes.

In his opinion, Konoha's fiscal deficit this year can be said to be very normal.

Due to wars and disasters, Konoha's financial revenue has shrunk? And because Hanzo and the Daming Palace have broken up, the Daming Palace's financial subsidies will not be seen this year.

However, with the fiscal revenue shrinking, many factors such as war pensions, relief funds, ninja commissions and public employee salaries, as well as aid to other ninja villages have led to a sharp increase in Konoha's expenditures? It can be said that the deficit is a normal phenomenon.

On the contrary, if there was a surplus, Hanzo would have to wonder if Senju Takeoka had made false accounts.

To be fair, such a large financial overrun has indeed put a lot of pressure on Konoha.

In the past few years, Senju Takeoka has invested almost all of the little money he has worked so hard to save, so much so that the current salaries paid to public officials in Konoha are all privately lent to the village by the Shimada and Senju clans.

, as the elder in charge of the Ministry of Finance, Senju Takeoka will inevitably feel dissatisfied.

However, after all, Senju Jukuoka just wanted to remind Hanzo to pay attention to Konoha's financial pressure, and not to make a fool of himself. As for Konoha's plans, they were approved at a high-level meeting. Senju Jukuoka also raised his hands.

Agree.

"I understand what the elder means." Hanzo sorted out the reports in front of him and put them in the drawer of the office. He said seriously: "At present, the initial investment in the village has almost been made. There will be no more large expenditures in a short time. Zhu Yuan

Elders just need to sort out the next financial situation. As long as we survive this period, it will all be worth it."

Senju Takeoka didn't take the rest of Hanzo's words seriously at all. He only heard Hanzo's promise that "there won't be any large expenditures in a short period of time."

With these words, Senju Takeoka breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, that's good. In that case, Hokage-sama doesn't have to worry, the Ministry of Finance is capable of coping with the current predicament."

"Yes." Hanzo nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. After the two casually chatted for a few words, Senju Takeoka stood up and left.

However, not long after Senju Takeoka left, another elder from the Senju clan, Tobirama, visited the Hokage's office again.

"Hanzo, the four major ninja villages are asking us when we will launch an attack on the Daming Mansion." Tobirama sat in front of Hanzo and told Hanzo all the news he had obtained.

Although Tobirama's official identity is actually the elder in charge of Konoha's Medical Department, in fact, since the elder in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kazuya Uchiha, was sidelined, it is Tobirama who actually controls the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In addition, the Five Village Alliance was originally also Tobirama.

The person in charge of the preparations, with the idea of ​​not bothering the two masters with one thing, Hanzo gave all these tasks to Tobirama.

As a blood successor, Hanzo has no worries that the situation will get out of his control.

Hearing Tobirama's words, Hanzo rubbed his chin and began to think: "If I want to say it, I think the sooner we act, the better for us. Now the relief work is still proceeding steadily. Ordinary people are mindful of the good of the Ninja Village, and treat those nobles

There are many dissatisfactions among the gentlemen, and those guys are still fighting among themselves right now, so I think now is the best opportunity."

"It seems that the two of us have thought of going together." Hearing this, Tobirama clapped his hands a little excitedly.

Most people would think that overthrowing a daimyo requires caution and more time to prepare, but Tobirama always felt that thunderous methods were the most suitable option for them at the moment.

In fact, he came here just to persuade Hanzo to accept his opinion, but now, Hanzo's ideas coincided with his, and Tobirama was naturally excited.

I saw him standing up impatiently and said: "Then tell me, when should we choose a date? Set a date, and I will go and make it clear to the other ninja villages now."

"Just three days later, give other ninja villages a buffer time." Hanzo pondered for a moment before giving his opinion.

"Then it's settled." Tobirama nodded obediently, and then left the Hokage's office impatiently.
