This Uchiha is too cautious

Chapter 342 One step forward

Coming out of the Hokage's office, Uchiha Kai had a smile on his lips.

Mission progress, completed well.

Recalling the look of surprise and bitter smile on Namikaze Minato's face just now, Uchiha Kei himself felt a little funny.

Indeed, if Kumogakure comes to cause trouble, and things gradually get worse.

Although it may lead to the haze of war, if handled well, this is also a rare opportunity.

Just like Uchiha Kei said, expressing a certain degree of toughness in order to safeguard Konoha's interests is an excellent opportunity to win over and stabilize people's hearts.

And Uchiha Kei is right, diverting attention can indeed allow them to better implement certain key measures.

The promotion of measures this time was due to an accident. Namikaze Minato himself did not expect that Uchiha Kei would make such a big fuss in Kirigakure.

But the benefits brought this time are naturally obvious.

When everyone's attention was focused on Kirigakure and the mysterious people who were suspected of also attacking Konoha.

Their reforms and welfare promotion can be described as calm.

Although this kind of reform, the elimination of the position of special jounin also caused quite a stir.

But the public's attention is not on this aspect, so the attention it receives and the possible backlash are completely within control.

With the continuous implementation of welfare policies, this matter will slowly disappear in the future, and everything they hope for will be accomplished smoothly.

But obviously, Kirigakure's situation was really an accident.

You can't just do what Uchiha Kei said and let him do it again, right?

The more shots he takes, the greater the chance of exposure. Namikaze Minato doesn't want Uchiha Kei to be exposed.

So if in the future, they have thoroughly promoted the welfare system, and those reforms have been fully rooted in the hearts of the people.

Cloud Hidden is looking for trouble, so naturally it becomes a great help!

Although Namikaze Minato loves peace in his heart, after several times of advice from Uchiha Kei, he seems to understand that peace in the true sense is really difficult.

Instead of thinking about such troublesome things, it is better to take care of Konoha.

However, these things are only within their expectations and they need to take preventive measures.

After all, there is no hint of what Kumogakure will say now, and there is no sign of an outbreak.

Therefore, what they have to do now is to develop themselves well and deal with what they should do.

Only when you have dealt with your own problems can you deal with some things that may happen in the future.

And turn such a crisis into a considerable opportunity.

"Minister Kei." Just after walking out of the Hokage's office, Uchiha Kei suddenly heard someone calling him.

Turning his head, Uchiha Kei said with a smile: "Hello, Minister Shikaku, are you here to see Lord Hokage?"

The person coming was none other than Nara Shikaku. Uchiha Kei and Namikaze Minato were talking about him just now, but they didn't expect to meet him when they turned around.

Nara Shikaku looked the same as before. He was wearing a standard Konoha uniform and holding a document report in his hand.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that he had a scar on his face from the war and he wasn't as motivated as his own son.

The Nara clan, Keiha Uchiha, thought that they were all carved from the same mold.

"No, Minister Kei, although it is rude to say this, but I am here to find you." Nara Shikaku said calmly.

"Looking for me?" Uchiha Kai was stunned for a moment. He was not surprised that this guy knew that he was coming.

After all, as long as it's not something too confidential when he comes to the Hokage Building, he won't hide himself.

It's just that Nara Shikaku's purpose of looking for him makes Uchiha Kei a little confused.

But thinking about it, maybe it’s not too difficult, right?

Maybe it's something else, about myself not reporting the related 'Konoha Detonating Talisman Incident', right?

After all, Uchiha Kei really should have said hello in advance about this matter. It did not seem very authentic for him to do it quietly like this.

"Ah, indeed."

Nara Shikaku nodded, and suddenly he noticed Uchiha Kei's inexplicable expression. He immediately thought of something.

"It's not the detonating talisman, but something more important. Although I think Minister Qi's handling of this matter is not reasonable."

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter." Uchiha Kai shook his head decisively.

"Although I want to say that I did this because I was confident enough, it seems that you will not accept such an explanation. Tell me, what makes Minister Shikaku wait for me for so long."

"Ah, it's because there are some important things." Nara Shikaku handed the document in his hand to Uchiha Kei, and said with a serious face: "This matter is very important, but I am worried that my power alone will not be able to attract everyone. For the attention of the Hokage-sama, therefore"

Uchiha Kai frowned, what kind of important things would make this guy pay so much attention to it.

He was even worried that he wouldn't be able to attract Namikaze Minato's attention by himself.

But when Uchiha Kai opened the report and looked at it, he felt a little funny.

Because the report Nara Shikaku gave him was related to post-war reconstruction, as well as assessment reports on some ninja villages that might pose a threat to Konoha.

Uchiha Kei suddenly understood Nara Shikaku's thoughts, or it could be said that everything was explained in this evaluation report.

In this assessment report, Nara Shikaku marked the key points of Kumogakure Village.

And analyze it from the aspects of strength loss, combat effectiveness recovery, their Raikage character, etc.

The result was an 'extreme danger' report.

It can be seen that the people in Konoha are really very capable, and they have already made various assessments.

The reason why the Sandaime Hokage behaved so decisively in the original work may be partly due to this prediction report.

It's just that they underestimated the methods Kumogakure would use, but even if they underestimated the Sandaime, he made some compromises based on his character at the time to completely resolve the matter.

To some extent, there was nothing wrong with what the Third Hokage did.

After all, solving the biggest trouble with the smallest loss may seem cruel but is really very effective.

However, he ignored the human heart.

At that time, the morale of the entire Konoha was very low because of the death of the Fourth Generation Eye, and they desperately needed something to cheer them up.

It's hard to say what kind of effect it would have if the Third Hokage became more aggressive.

But it would definitely be better than making the morale of the entire Konoha even lower.

And the most important thing is that he made the Hyuga clan make a decision with "compulsion".

This makes the blood-step family that has been almost wiped out by him feel like "the rabbit dies and the fox is sad".

Because God knows when, this kind of thing will happen to me.

It can be said that the Sandaime Hokage had good ideas, but he ignored too many things.

Coupled with his connivance towards Danzo, it led to the consequences of betrayal and separation in the future.

After reading this report, combined with the previous exchange with Namikaze Minato, Uchiha Keiji already knew Nara Shikaku's thoughts.

After all, this kind of thing requires a lot of preparation, prevention and control, and the cost is also very high.

If resources are wasted because of something that may not happen, Nara Shikaku is also worried whether Namikaze Minato will agree.

Judging from his current performance, maybe Minato Namikaze didn't directly express his opinion last time.

"So that's what happened." Uchiha Kei smiled and handed the report to Nara Shikaku.

"Actually, Minister Shikaku doesn't need to worry so much. Minato Team. Hokage-sama has already told me about this matter just now, and he asked me for my opinion."

"Oh?" Nara Shikaku's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked: "Minister Kei, I didn't know you were"

"Don't worry, I take this matter very seriously. I think Minister Shikaku is right."

Uchiha Kei simply reported this matter to Namikaze Minato: "The reason why Hokage-sama told me is that he probably thinks that this matter is indeed worthy of attention, so Minister Shikaku doesn't need to worry about these things."

"Is that so?" Nara Shikaku was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect such a result.

Although Uchiha Kei said that Namikaze Minato took the initiative to talk to him about this matter, Nara Shikaku felt that it might not be that simple.

But no matter what it is, this problem that has caused Nara Shikaku a headache for a long time has been solved.

This made Nara Shikaku feel a little emotional.

But anyway, this seems to be a good thing.

Moreover, Nara Shikaku was thinking, if there are any difficult problems in the future, why not discuss it with the head of the security department first, and then drag him up to see Namikaze Minato?

In the eyes of the Hokage, the Minister of Security really has too much power to speak.

But what Nara Shikaku cannot deny is that the head of the security department has very strong judgment ability.

It can be said that he has not made any mistakes in judgment so far.

Although there are minor errors, they are rare.

Needless to say, big mistakes or fatal mistakes have almost never been seen so far.

Although Uchiha Kei may have his own judgment on such a major matter, there will definitely be no problem.

What makes Nara Shikaku feel strange is that this kid is only fifteen years old. Why does he have such judgment ability?

This kind of judgment is not only related to one's IQ, but also has a very important point, that is, life experience.

And he has his own understanding of the various reactions arising from the entanglements of interests in various aspects.

But Nara Shikaku didn't bother to think about such things. Maybe others were born sensitive.

If you think more on the battlefield, you will understand better.

"Anyway, thank you, Minister Kei, for your help." Nara Shikaku showed a smile: "With Minister Kei's help, everything may become easier."

"No, even without me, I believe that Hokage-sama would pay attention to this kind of thing." Uchiha Kai shook his head: "By the way, Minister Shikaku, when do you have time in the evening? I think we really should get together. Gathered."

"I thought so too, how about tonight?"

"How about calling Minister Shikaku's father?"

"My father? I think I understand what you mean."

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you, Minister Shikaku"

Inviting Nara Shikaku and bringing his father along with him made this intention extremely obvious.

This is Uchiha Kei paving the way for his friend, the boy from the Senju clan who currently works in the mission department and is very likely to take over the mission department in the future.

However, Nara Shikaku had no intention of rejecting this kind of thing.

His father is now older, not to mention that he is indeed gradually moving towards retirement.

The Mission Department is very important in Konoha, although to some extent it is not as important as the Government Affairs Department.

But after leaving, the Nara clan's connection with the mission may also weaken.

Therefore, it is very necessary to have a good relationship with the future head of the mission department.

Thinking of this, Nara Shikaku naturally had no objection. In his opinion, this must be a good thing.

What only made him slightly worried was that Uchiha Kei's sphere of influence was really getting bigger and bigger.

He has taken control of the Security Department and is continuing to expand the Security Department's sphere of influence.

The people in the mission department who have the best chance and qualifications to be promoted to director are still his teammates, and their relationship seems to be very good.

This also means that Uchiha Kei alone involves two major departments in Konoha.

Moreover, these two major departments are still the departments with real power.

Such power is really terrifying.

In addition, he has recently become closer to girls from the Hyuga clan. To be honest, Nara Shikaku is also a little worried about the emergence of such a terrifying profit beast.

But the only thing to be happy about is that the girl from the Hinata family is just a branch.

Fortunately, it was a separation, otherwise the future would be really unimaginable.

After discussing these matters with Nara Shikaku, Uchiha Keiya politely chose to leave.

Although Nara Shikaku was thinking about a lot of messy things, he also nodded goodbye to Uchiha Kei with a smile.

He does have other things going on right now, which are some plans for what might happen in the future.

Since Uchiha Kei had already conveyed the information about Namikaze Minato to him, the sooner this kind of thing could be deployed, the better.

"I don't know what will happen to those muscular men from Yunyin Village in the future if they really come to cause trouble after I got in the way."

After leaving the Hokage Building, Uchiha Kei thought to himself: "Just in time, the Kumo ninja is here, and Konoha's reserve savings and weapon upgrades are basically completed. At the same time, I'm afraid I also got a lot of money, right?"

After Uchiha Kai returned to Konoha, although he did not pay too much attention to the situation on Kirigakure's side.

But he also knew that many places in Konoha had begun to operate unconsciously.

For example, the weapons and equipment allocated to the Security Department from the Administration Department obviously have some problems in terms of quantity.

In addition, there is also a lot of trouble in the weapon distribution link of the mission department.

It's just that this kind of trick is obviously strictly controlled by the Nara clan, and Minato Namikaze is also watching, so he will never let them have any problems.

In addition, Konoha's craftsmen and medicine merchants also received new mission notices.

That is, Konoha needs new weapons and equipment, as well as new military food pills and other strategic reserve materials, and they need to come up with new plans.

This can be regarded as an alternative kind of bidding. Once their new plan is approved, they will naturally receive a large bonus and a large order.

Although it is impossible for them to finish these orders alone, the income from this is completely conceivable.

"Forget it, I don't need to worry about these things. Naturally, someone will rush to do them."

Uchiha Kai shook his head, then his eyes wandered to the Security Department Building and the Mission Department Building. After hesitating for a moment, he walked directly towards the Mission Department Building.

"Let's go to the mission department and have a look. It just so happens that there's nothing to do right now, so I'll leave it to others to handle. Go meet Kenta Imai."

Uchiha Kai has always had a great degree of freedom. Anyway, as long as there are no major incidents in the Security Department, Uchiha Kai does not need to take care of him much.

This situation naturally gave Uchiha Kei more ability to freely control his own time.

So now he can completely ignore so many things and choose to go to the mission department to have a look.

To be honest, the number of times Uchiha Kei has visited the mission department so far is pitiful.

After being 'graduated', he was considered a 'qualified' ninja.

However, due to the war, his tasks were all unified and sent directly through the task department.

In other words, these tasks will be delivered to him even when he is at home, and there is no need to go to the task hall or the like.

Relatively speaking, the one that left a deep impression was probably the time I went to investigate Isamu Uchiha's intelligence. As for other times, I basically didn't have this opportunity.

We walked all the way to the mission department hall. The mission hall at this time was still the same as Uchiha Kei remembered.

There are a lot of people here, some come with their own subordinates, and some come in small teams to look for suitable tasks.

After all, ninjas still need money, especially purchasing training equipment and various supplies, which are very expensive.

Although every ninja in the village will receive a certain amount of subsidies, such subsidies are obviously not enough for their training.

The village's money must be used to build and develop the village and train more ninjas.

How can there be so much money allocated to so many ninjas?

Therefore, tasks have become the main way for ninjas to earn income, otherwise Konoha's task share would not arouse the jealousy of so many people.

Especially after the two wars, Konoha's prestige has been further deepened.

Many people know that Konoha's mission schedule is full, and they are willing to send their missions to Konoha.

Of course, in the future, with the reforms promoted by Uchiha Kei, these ninjas may have more money.

Doing tasks requires time and strength. With better support, the ninjas can absorb more tasks.

The appearance of Uchiha Kei attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked towards Uchiha Kei.

However, Uchiha Keiya simply said hello to them and walked directly into the mission department's work building.

Someone probably noticed him coming, and Kenta Imai soon appeared in front of him.

This guy seemed a little confused. He couldn't figure out why Uchiha Kei appeared here.

"Why are you here?" Imai Kenta asked curiously: "Ah, forget it, come to my office."

"Speak, do you have a very fast reaction time here?" Uchiha Kei said in a funny tone: "I just arrived with the front foot, and you handed me over with the back foot to greet me?"

"There is no other way. After all, the mission department is full of people and many foreign spies like to search for information here."

Kenta Imai shook his head: "It's silly and very outdated, but it is very effective. Because you may have been in the mission hall for a whole day without finding a mission that suits you, so there will always be people fishing in troubled waters. In this case, you You can’t stop them and ask them, right?”

"It's really hard to do anything. The most important thing is that you have nothing to do to change this kind of thing." Uchiha Kai spread his hands: "It is quite difficult for you people."

Kenta Imai shook his head and didn't say much. After all, anyone who does this kind of thing would feel very cheating.

But Kenta Imai is used to it, and since it's not his turn to take care of him for the time being, there's no need to think too much.

If it was really his turn, the worst he could do was ask Uchiha Keibang for help. Maybe both of them could add some political achievements.

Under the leadership of Imai Kenta, the two of them quickly arrived at the B-level mission office.

This office is not big, but it is enough for Kenta Imai.

In fact, when Uchiha Kei comes with his status, it is most appropriate for the head of the mission department to come forward to receive him.

But obviously this old man of the Nara clan knew very well that Uchiha Kai came here to meet Kenta Imai.

Moreover, he is also in a state of gradually delegating power, and he will not be able to manage many things too much. Handing this kind of matter to Kenta Imai can be regarded as a statement.

After Uchiha Kai came in, he found a place to sit down casually, while Kenta Imai poured him a cup of tea.

"Speak, why did you come to see me?" Imai Kenta put the tea on his desk, and then asked curiously: "Or do you have any plans?"

"There are some plans, such as helping Kakashi move forward a little."

Uchiha Kei smiled and said, but after taking a look at the messy documents on the table, he shook his head: "Unfortunately, it seems that your current situation doesn't make it easy to act, right?"

"Ah, it's really not easy to move." Kenta Imai nodded directly.

“Minister Nara seems to have started preparing for his retirement, and I am in a hurry now.

He seems to be teaching me as much as possible in order to connect me with the Nara clan, probably to cultivate some."

"Master-disciple relationship? Favor of support?" Uchiha Kei smiled and shook his head: "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome, as long as you are free tonight."

It seems that the minister of the Nara clan is also making some plans.

I'm afraid that in addition to the security department where Imai Kenta is located, he also hopes to have some connections with Uchiha Kei, right?

But no matter what he does, his son Nara Shikaku has already started planning and doing it.

But knowing the mission director’s thoughts is also very good. Especially after tonight’s meeting, I’m afraid he will also let go of some concerns and better train Imai Kenta, right?

"Tonight? Could it be?" Kent Imai was stunned for a moment, and then his face became a little happy.

"Ah, yes, I have an appointment with the Nara family tonight. If nothing unexpected happens, both ministers will come."

Uchiha Kei smiled and nodded: "In addition, Akimichi and Yamanaka may also be present, so are you free tonight?"

"Of course I'm free! Thank you, Qi. By the way, what was the action you mentioned before? If necessary, I will find a way."

"Oh? Really? I might have to take action against the Daimyo. It would be great to have your help!"

".Well, I may not have time."

Thanks to classmates I want to name Dudu, classmate Pipipapipo, and classmate Wujun Luohou of Nanwulin for their tips. Thank you, thank you~

I recommend two books, 1. "I'm Really Not Her Disciple". The protagonist goes to the mountains to learn from Bai Zirou, the number one fairy. The author is a serious person and doesn't step on the brakes!

2. "Fairies Are Not Humans", the protagonist of this book is a cross-dressing boss with no moral integrity~
