Build a Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 358 Hashirama is not suitable for Hokage next

In ten years, the country of fire has developed faster than anyone imagined.

A peaceful and stable environment, increasingly perfect infrastructure, untimely but fairly fair judiciary, and a sufficiently broad channel for advancement.

In the past ten years, the wealth of the country and the prosperity of the people have made people's eyes turn red, but Konoha's prosperity can calm people's minds down.

Uchiha Madara, Shura Uchiha of the Ninja World, fought all over the Ninja World, flattened the mountains and transformed the terrain in the Land of Fire, doing things that are beyond human capabilities.

Although Senju Hashirama, the god of ninjas, did not do such evil things as destroying ninja villages, he used ninjutsu to transform the entire land of fire into a large forest. Thinking that the entire country is the domain of Mutun, the reputation of the god spread like wildfire and go.

Not counting the two ninjas beyond human comprehension, Konoha still has 1 ninjas from the Defense Department, [-] ninjas from the Taxation Department, [-] ninjas from the Internal Affairs Department, and [-] specialized ninjas from the Ninja Army Department. Division fighting ninjas.

There are nearly [-] professional ninjas in total, and even if the four major ninja villages are tied together, they cannot gather so much mobility.

In fact, Konoha also has [-] infrastructure ninjas from the Ministry of Communications, but these ninjas who pave roads and build bridges, fill pits and dig holes all day long, and open rivers and repair dams are despised existences in the eyes of most people in the ninja world.

However, Ba Ye doesn’t think so. History has long proved that whether it’s the rabbit’s engineering soldiers or the German cat’s combat engineers, they are all first-class elites. They are the ones who come when they are called. strength.

Except for the ninjas who specialize in fighting, other ninjas are not qualified to be compared with infrastructure ninjas.

Faced with such a powerful and rich Fire Nation, the small countries feel that it doesn't matter, and they can just hitch a ride on the Fire Nation and enjoy a wave of economic dividends.

However, it is impossible for the great powers not to care. They all studied how the Land of Fire became powerful and rich.

The unique political structure of the Land of Fire naturally attracted the attention of the four major powers, and they all followed the system and policies of the Land of Fire.

The dignitaries are naturally unwilling to give up their privileges, and the imitation of the Nation of Fire is naturally superficial, basically copying some departments and organizations such as the Jonin Council, of course, none of the Taxation Department is left behind.

As the saying goes, those who learn from me live, those who resemble me die.

The four great powers made a nonsense copy, and they soon felt various discomforts, which even caused quite a bit of confusion.

Especially the powerful tax department, it quickly became extremely complicated, with seven or eight deputy ministers or supervisors and other messy positions under the minister.

Each of these deputy ministers has a team of subordinates, fighting for power and profit among themselves. After a series of open and secret struggles, setting up the backstage, and planning territory, it took a long time to finally stabilize.

However, the top centralized department like the tax department has been tossed into a feudal system of enfeoffment. The minister is appointed by the person who has the most subordinates and the largest tax territory, but he can't control the deputy ministers, because they also have a group of subordinates , Each has a tax collection site.

Even after tossing to this extent, the taxation department still has the attributes of a centralized empire, and the taxes they collect are several times higher than those collected by the nobles before, so the daimyo and shadow are very satisfied.

Of course they don't care about this kind of tax department that looks like a seam monster. The squeeze on the bottom is more professional and powerful than the feudal aristocrats, and once corrupted, it will be even more cruel.

However, it is not their turn to worry about corruption now. Konoha Village, Country of Fire, does not intend to allow them to continue to exist and unify the ninja world as one country.

……

Senshou Bashirama asked, "Which big country is our first target?"

Seeing that everyone including Mito was looking at him, Hashirama scratched his head and said, "What do you see me doing?"

Uchiha Madara laughed for a while, and said, "Hashirama, don't you talk about peace and balance now?"

Senshou Zhuma said with relief: "I'm not blind. The goal of peace is to stop wars, but the fundamental purpose of stopping wars is to let the world live a life of dignity."

"Ten years ago I didn't think so, but today people from the Land of Fire and people from other countries...are already from two worlds." Senshou Zhujian said with great emotion, "They are still struggling in the endless hell. , it shouldn’t be like this, they shouldn’t come to the world to suffer in hell.”

Ba Ye looked at Qianshou Zhujian, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes. This person has a sincere heart from the bottom of his heart. He must have never learned the principles of Mohism, but he can follow Mohism and love the first righteousness.

Born in the ninja world, and no one guides him how to practice such morality, this is really a tragedy.

Of course, Ba Ye's fall from the sky changed his fate. Under the guidance of this old rabbit, Qianshou Zhujian looked farther, and at the same time, he was able to see the lower-level creatures.

Moreover, how well the Kingdom of Fire is being built, and how happy the people's lives are, but other countries have turned into such a mess, Senshou Zhujian naturally has a tendency in his heart.

It is all due to the heart of universal love. Senju Zhuma used to think that Uchiha Madara was an eyesore, but now he naturally feels that those countries and nobles are an eyesore.

Senju Hashirama is a true idealist. For the sake of ideals, he can even stab his beloved Madara to death with his own hands, not to mention the foreign nobles, daimyo and ninjas who hate him just by looking at them. He will kill them without blinking an eye.

Baye nodded and said: "Hokage is right, they should be unified, and the people of the ninja world should enjoy peace, stability, happiness, and live a hopeful life."

"However, the first thing we have to do is not to choose the target to attack, but... to change Hokage."

"what?!"

This sentence frightened everyone, did Senshou Zhujian do something wrong?

"My elder brother..." Qianshou stood up slowly, and was suppressed by another louder voice as soon as he opened his mouth.

Uchiha Madara asked with the loudest voice in an unbelievable tone: "Why? The Hokage in Hashirama is doing well, why change Hokage?"

Ba Ye raised his index and middle fingers, and said, "Two reasons."

"First, the next thing is war. Even if it is a unification war, the entire country of Fire Nation will have to change its style. What is most needed in the early days of the village is the Hokage that can bond the country and the village. Hashirama did a good job, but his Personality is not suitable for wartime."

"Second, for the national system, I believe in Hashirama and Madara, and I also believe in everyone present, but I cannot trust the descendants of you present, whether it is your disciples or your children."

"The tenure of Hokage that I mentioned ten years ago must be established this year. After we all leave, the rules of this tenure can continue to operate unchangeably."

"Originally, my idea was just to conduct a vote of confidence in the term of office, and let Hashirama be re-elected again, but the country of fire is developing too fast, and the time for the unification war has come, so it is not suitable for Hashirama to continue to be the next one. Ten years of Hokage."

Ba Ye smiled and said: "Since the time has come, let's use this time to strengthen the rules of tenure."

Senjuzhuma patted his thigh and said: "Okay, what Ba Ye said is very correct. My personality is indeed not suitable for ruling the Fire Nation during the war. suggestion."

"But..." Senju Bashima looked at Uchiha Madara, and asked hesitantly, "Who will be the next Hokage?"

"Of course it's Madara Uchiha." Eighth Master said with a smile, "You don't need to recommend, Madara is the most suitable candidate for the second Hokage. Let those who are running around know that we are about to start, and you decide what to do."

Uchiha Madara's face was reddish with excitement, he clenched his right fist and slapped his left palm fiercely, and said loudly: "That's exactly my dream! The Second Hokage will be done by me!"

Senshou smacked his lips and said nothing. He was also persuaded by Baye, but he had a grudge against the Uchiha clan in his heart, and he was a little unhappy to see Uchiha Madara was about to become Hokage.

In the past ten years, everyone knows that Senju Tomona has served as the head of Anbu of Hokage, and at the same time, he has devoted himself to developing various ninjutsu, showing his talents to the fullest.

But what are those ninjutsu: the art of darkness, the art of reincarnation of the dirty soil, the art of flying thunder god, flying thunder god slash, mutual multiplication and detonation symbol, as long as you look at the effect, you can know that it is either for writing sharingan or for Susanoo It can be developed.

Full of malice, coupled with the fact that Qianshou Feijian is proficient in the five escapism techniques, but he uses his greatest energy to study water escapism, forcibly playing with water escapism, which wins by quantity.

If it is said that this guy is not aimed at Uchiha's famous fire escape ninjutsu, no ghost will believe it.

There is no way, this guy's personality is like this, and he can't change it in this life.

Therefore, Senju Feima and Uchiha Quanna have not reconciled for ten years, and they are still angry and hostile, just like children.

Uchiha Madara asked: "Baye, if I do Hokage, who will the Defense Department and the Tax Department be handed over to? Or should I do it concurrently?"

"That's a good idea." Ba Ye smiled, "You will know later, as the leader of Hokage, you don't have time to care about these small things at all."

"I suggest that the Defense Department be entrusted to Senju Hashirama, and the Taxation Department be entrusted to Senju Tomoma. In addition, Madara, find someone you can trust to serve as the Anbu Minister."

After thinking about it, everyone thought it was very suitable, so they didn't object.

Uzumaki Mito looked around and said, "Since everyone has no objection to Baye's proposal, I'll hold a Jōnin meeting to determine the replacement of Naruto. Do you want to give advice to the Jōnin about the war?"

Uchiha Madara waved his hand proudly, and said loudly: "I suggest not to blow the wind, but to announce it directly. The unification war does not need suddenness."

Qianshou Feijian objected: "But the Four Great Ninja Villages will unite when they know the news, and increase our war losses out of thin air."

Uchiha Madara said with a sneer: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if they unite, Konoha's ninja army will crush them together, and the unity of the ninja world is unstoppable."

Qianshou Feijian was furious: "However, many Konoha ninjas will die in vain. How can you do this as Hokage?"

Senju Bashirama couldn't help frowning when he heard that, but he didn't object, but looked at Baye, only to find that Baye didn't respond to Uchiha Madara's words.

"Baye, do you think Madara's approach is right?"

"um, yes."

Senshou Zhuma was greatly shocked, and blurted out: "Why is this, they are all Konoha's ninjas, how could it be like this..."

Eighth Master said helplessly: "Hashirama, that's why I suggested replacing Uchiha Madara as Hokage. Your character is really not suitable for the unification war."

Thinking back to the only truly unified country in his previous life, and all the ups and downs, experiences and lessons he has experienced in the process of unification, Ba Ye said with emotion: "I said ten years ago that unification is not simply a matter of bringing all opponents together. Just kill them all, but you must be able to completely control the land and manage all the people on the land."

Uchiha Madara smiled maliciously: "So we spent ten years training a large number of ninjas and more 'village chiefs', hehe, they kept staring at the number of ninjas, but didn't notice us Now each village has five village chiefs."

Ba Ye also smiled, and then continued: "But is it enough to just hit it and control it? Of course not."

"Reunification is not only about completing the occupation by force, but more importantly, it is about completing the occupation 'in the heart', so that everyone will be convinced by us and dare not resist our rule."

"In this way, we can maintain control at the lowest cost, and smoothly implement new policies that they are not familiar with, ensuring that the new policies will not be out of shape, and bring more benefits and convenience to the local people."

"In the end, after a long period of running-in, everyone accepted the concept of 'we are one family', and this is the real unity."

Ba Ye looked at Qianshouzhujian and Qianshoufeijian, and said solemnly: "Attention, the premise of everything is that everyone who hits is 'convinced', and the best way is to let them do everything they have done. We were crushed head-on when we were at our strongest."

Thousand Hands said in thought: "What if they refuse to accept?"

Ba Ye sighed and said: "If you don't accept it, it will be troublesome. They will help us on the surface, but secretly oppose us, pass information to those hostile ninjas, and cover the activities of the ninjas."

"And these ninjas have intelligence and cover, and it will be very difficult to hunt and kill them. However, they can use intelligence to accurately kill our village chiefs and people who have accepted our management, and continue to create terror."

"Such a tactic is almost unsolvable. We have to invest ten times, twenty times, or even a hundred times as many ninjas to play hide-and-seek with them for many years. After a long time, people will not trust our rule. People from the Land of Fire It is also unacceptable that the result of hard work is in vain.”

"The result is that the unification war has been won, but a unified country cannot be established. We will suffer the most terrible failure, and even the Nation of Fire itself will be implicated."

Baye looked into Hashirama's eyes and said: "Hashirama, the ninjas who died in the unification war, the imperial ninjas who died, and the people who died in the war, they all died in vain."

Ba Ye's words were so heavy, Qianshou Feijian and Qianshouzhujian stopped talking, and thought silently.

Uchiha Madara also felt the heavy pressure. After reflection, he suddenly felt that he was too naive. The reason for being fearless was just a habitual pursuit of the greatest glory. How could this support his fearless move forward?

But Uchiha Madara has a unique tenacity, he quickly cleared up his mood, and consciously asked from the perspective of Hokage: "Back to the original topic, which one should we choose as the first target?"
