I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I don't need approval

Chapter 217: The Retired Three Generations of Hokage

Hearing the conversation between Hinata and Hanabi, Hinata Hinata looked up at the sky.

After issuing an order to the branch family to prohibit publicity about Hinata's awakening of the bone vein, Hinata Hinata looked at his eldest daughter and said slowly, "Hinata, come with me."

Hinata looked at Hinata Hyuzu's back, and followed without changing his expression, and came to the old house of the Zong family.

Sitting on the ground, Hinata Hyuzu stared at Hinata, and asked unhurriedly: "Hinata, when did you awaken the bone vein? Do you still have any memory?"

Hinata shook her head: "Father, I don't know."

Hinata didn't want to tell her father about the pendant, and wanted to prevaricate it.

Hinata Hyuzu looked at Hinata for a while, and realized that Hinata must have concealed himself. He sighed slightly and said, "You must have something to do with Naruto when you awakened the blood of the bones."

Hinata's eyes dodged a little: "No... I haven't seen Naruto-kun for a long time."

Seeing this scene, Hinata Hyuzu suddenly understood everything. The bones and blood on Hinata must have something to do with Naruto. The boy who dared to leave Konoha at a young age always reminded him of the four years ago. On behalf of Hokage.

"Since you don't want to say it, I won't force it..."

After sighing softly, Hinata Hidetsu's face became serious: "But, Hinata, are you ready to become the heir of the clan?"

Hinata clenched her fists, raised her head and said, "Father, can it be true that you can't give Huahuo the inheritance rights? Hinata has no interest in becoming the head of the family."

Hyuga Hyuzu shook his head: "From the moment you exposed your bones and blood, even if you want to give up the position of heir, you can't give up. The future of the Hyuga clan is tied to you."

Hinata's expression darkened: "Father, is there really no other way? You probably don't want to see Huahuo engraved with the curse of the caged bird, right?"

Recalling what happened in these years, Hinata understood that her father did not want to see her and her sister be engraved with the curse of the caged bird, otherwise he would not delay the time to decide the heir.

Hyuga Hinata smiled: "It's not impossible. I have always wanted to abolish the caged bird system, but I don't have the strength and prestige. If it is Hinata, there may be a way to abolish the caged bird system in the future."

"Me?" Hinata was still a little unconfident, and her voice became smaller unconsciously.

Hyuga Hyuzu nodded: "Hinata, you are very satisfied with your performance today. With bones and supercilious eyes, you will not be inferior to Sannin in the future. The obstacles to changing the caged bird system must be much smaller. .”

After a pause, Hinata Hinata went on to say:

"From today on, in addition to the lessons of the ninja school, I will also teach you how to become the head of the family, and teach you how to use the power of the bones. You have always wanted to protect the child Huahuo."

"Naruto will be very happy to know that you have become the Patriarch."

After thinking for a while, Hinata nodded, she didn't want to be the head of the Hyuga clan.

But if she can protect her sister and get Naruto-kun's approval, she is willing to give it a try. It would be too cowardly to always hide behind other people.

...

The news that the Hyuga clan confirmed the successor of the clan soon spread throughout Konoha Ninja Village.

Aside from the surprise that it was the eldest lady Hinata who succeeded the clan and not the second lady Hanabi, this news did not cause much disturbance in the village.

The Hyuga clan has always kept a low profile and mystery, and it is not a big deal to confirm the heir.

Even if a small number of interested people noticed that Hanabi was not engraved with the seal of the bird in a cage, they didn't care too much. It was nothing more than a power struggle within the Hyuga clan.

At the moment when the Fifth Hokage is going to reform the major departments, it is logical for the Hyuga clan to make changes.

The little girl who stayed with Hinata on weekdays noticed the changes in Hinata. Hinata, who had always been taciturn, seemed to become a little more cheerful, and her temperament was also changing.

"Hinata, have you forgotten about that fox? His complexion has improved a lot."

"No, I'm the same as before."

Hinata didn't notice this, she just lay down on the table and fell asleep in a daze.

After being trained as the heir of the clan, she didn't have much time to rest at all, and could only take up a little time in class, which Naruto-kun seemed to do the same way back then.

It seems that Naruto-kun must have been very busy at the time, hiding many secrets, and he finally caught up.

...

Inside the Sarutobi resident.

The three generations of Hokage who have passed the retirement state are taking care of the flowers and plants in the yard. After passing the position of Hokage to Jiraiya and Tsunade, he no longer cares about the major affairs of the village, and only wants to train young people and pension.

At this moment, a Jonin from the Sarutobi clan appeared in front of the Third Hokage and reported: "Master Hirizhan, this is a summary of the events in the village in recent days, please read it."

The third Hokage turned around and looked helplessly at Sarutobi Jonin: "How many times have I said that I am no longer Hokage, please don't send this information to me, and if you have anything to do, go to Jirai and deal with it, he It's Hokage."

Sarutobi Kami Shinobu lowered his head, making his expression hard to see:

"Master Patriarch, after the fifth generation succeeded to the throne, Anbu reformed. Many ninjas of the clan were pushed out of Anbu. Now they have to rely on entrustment to maintain their livelihood. If this continues, the Sarutobi clan will become a second-rate ninja clan. "

The third generation of Hokage continued to take care of the flowers and plants, and said disapprovingly: "Those positions can only be filled by Hokage cronies. You are too greedy. The Sarutobi clan should also return to their original positions."

Sarutobi Kaminin's face changed slightly, and he continued: "But Godaime is your disciple, and you gave up the position of Hokage, so Jiraiya can become Gokage Hokage. This position is given up by us, Sarutobi!"

"enough!"

The third Hokage showed warmth: "The position of Hokage does not belong to the Sarutobi clan, but belongs to the entire Konoha Ninja Village. If you have to say let it go, it is the second generation who gave it to someone other than Senju."

"That's what I said, but what the Fifth Generation has done is not too much. He and Tsunade Hime still want to carry out reforms in the village, suppressing the major ninja clans in various ways, supporting civilian ninjas, and threatening Daimyo-sama. If reforms continue indiscriminately, sooner or later there will be great chaos in the village.”

As soon as the words fell, Sarutobi Jominin consciously left the small courtyard, leaving only the lifted leaves in place.

The Third Hokage frowned and thought for a long time, finally picked up the information sent by Sarutobi Jominin, and read it carefully.

Jiraiya and Tsunade's reform is a good thing, and Konoha's time to reform, but the reform should not be too radical, otherwise it will cause the ninja to rebound, especially the ninja who has taken huge profits.

But after reading the information, Sandai Hokage fell into deep thought and could no longer remain calm.
