Konoha's New Third Hokage

The 16th year of Konoha is now one year after the end of the Ninja World War. The ninja village no longer needs to maintain a wartime alert state. Except for the ANBU ninjas who are still performing alert missions, the overall atmosphere is leaning towards a relaxed direction. A grand scene of living and working in peace and contentment.Because Tobirama intended to promote the emergence of civilian ninjas, and in order to make civilians willing to send their children to school, he formulated some measures that were beneficial to civilian life. Even those civilians who rented land from ninja families, their lives were different from those who had obtained independence. Land families won't be much different.Compared with the past, civilians live better in Konoha Ninja Village. They don't have to think about other things. They only need to cultivate the land diligently. Unknowingly, they have a sense of belonging to the village, and this is exactly what they need. This is what Tobirama wants to see.In addition to civilians, there are also some people who come to Konoha Ninja Village from all the way. They are mainly businessmen, craftsmen or declining samurai families. Some adventurous businessmen are interested in Konoha Ninja Village and the Country of Fire. The business opportunities behind the complex relationships hope to expand their business further. Of course, there are also some people who decided to bet on the future in Konoha Ninja Village because the business was not going well, so they came to Konoha Ninja Village; in the first During the Second Ninja World War, the consumption of ninja tools required by the Konoha Ninja Village was astonishing. The ninja family alone could not meet the demand, so craftsmen who took a fancy to this came to the Konoha Ninja Village one after another for mutual benefit; In the first ninja battle, except for the ninja village, the status of samurai was once again reduced. The various conflicts caused by the war caused some samurai families to lose their way of making a living, and they were almost the same as civilians.After a fierce ideological struggle, they decided to change their ways and abandon their ancestral status as samurai, instead joining the emerging ninja group.The Hatake family was one of them, and their ancestors were also a well-known samurai family. However, the impact of the ninja village system established by Senju Hashirama on the samurai had shaken their minds.Those stubborn warriors who refused to change all went to the Iron Kingdom. It cannot be said that the remaining warriors have lost their samurai traditions, but at least they have changed in their thinking.If it hadn't been for the impact of the war, the Hatake family might have continued to live as a samurai. However, as a result, they were implicated in the government, their status plummeted, and their lives became troublesome.Fortunately, the current head of the family was not a pedantic person. When he learned that his family had no hope in the samurai class, he resolutely defected to the Konoha Ninja Village.Although samurai cannot use ninjutsu, their physical fitness fully meets the needs of ninjas, and their skills are also excellent, but their methods are not as good at sneak attacks as ninjas.In the ninja school, their learning progress is faster than others, and Sakumo, the only son of the Hatake family, stands out among these people.Hatake Sakumo is seven years old this year. He has received strict training since he was a child. He is very proficient in mastering the ancestral sword skills. If you put aside the principles of ninja and judge only by strength, Hatake Sakumo is among the best among his peers. , and in the ninja school, he also learned some ninja methods. Even if he is not yet proficient in using them, he definitely knows how to deal with them. The teachers at the ninja school are very optimistic about his future.Although I came to Konoha Ninja Village with nothing, for a special group like the Hatake family, the Ninja Village directly gave them land to live in, and it was better than ordinary people.There are only two people in the Hatake family now, the head of the family, Isshin Hatake, and his son, Sakumo Hatake. Because of the previous failures, Isshin Hatake no longer has any ambitions and only hopes that his children can establish themselves in the Konoha Ninja Village.To his joy, his son came back not long ago and told him that he was valued by Masaki Fengmori, the Jounin of Konoha Ninja Village, and would soon leave the ninja school and study under him.Since he chose to come to Konoha Ninja Village, Hatake Isshin naturally conducted some research on Konoha Ninja Village. Although he could not know the deeper things, the fact that Fengmori Masaki was a student of the Second Hokage could still be investigated. , I didn’t expect him to be such a character. "Sakumo, you must cherish this opportunity and study hard under your teacher." Hatake Isshin said, "We are a samurai family and are out of place in this village. If we want to integrate into this village, we must get help from the top management of the ninja village. "I know, father." Hatake Sakumo looked at his father and showed a "don't worry" smile, "I have long decided to live as a ninja." "Well, in more than ten years, Who could have thought that the Hatake family would one day join the ranks of ninjas." Isshin Hatake smiled bitterly and said, "Sakumo, it's great that you can accept it so quickly. I was worried that you wouldn't understand." How is that possible? I don’t understand. Rather than becoming a samurai or a ninja, I care more about you, father.Hatake Sakumo felt very uncomfortable looking at his father's increasingly thin body. Even though Hatake arrived at Konoha Ninja Village so quickly, in fact, after all, it was a century-old samurai family. How could it be so easy to get everything? Although Hatake Sakumo was very young, he was intelligent, emotional, and had a unique eye. His father concealed it very well, but he still saw it. His father was by no means as relaxed as he seemed. , in this case, how could he add a burden to his father for his own sake? Therefore, Hatake Sakumo has always been obedient, and he decided that he must rely on his own strength to allow the family to gain a foothold in the Konoha Ninja Village.Afterwards, Hatake Sakumo received a notice from his teacher about where he was going to meet Masaki Fengmori and about his two teammates.In the ninja school, he knew that ninja teams usually consist of three people. This is a combination imitating the three ninja family alliances of Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi. It was unanimously recognized in the first ninja battle, so now It is used more and more widely, even for recruiting disciples. "I don't know what kind of people the other two are." Hatake Sakumo felt a little nervous. He knew that he was from a samurai family. Just as samurai had no favorable impression of ninjas, ninjas also had no favorable impressions of samurai. In Konoha Ninja Village During this period of his life, he had already felt the sight of his surroundings.It is precisely because of this that Hatake is determined to let his son study with Masaki Fengmori so that he can be recognized by the ninjas, integrate into the village, and become a part of it. This feeling of alienation is really uneasy for outsiders like them.Hatake Sakumo went out very early that day and came to the place where he had scheduled a meeting. It is said that this is a place for people to practice. The village has recently attached great importance to the strength of students, so training grounds like this have been built one after another. According to Among the students' different identities, some are public and some are private, and the one Hatake Sakumo is in is obviously private.Masaki Fengmori, a student of the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama, was born in the Fengmori family. During the Warring States Period, he was taken in by the Senju family. Later, due to his outstanding performance at Konoha Academy, he was accepted as a student by the current Hokage and taught his skills.During the First Ninja World War, they raided the rear of the Kumogakure Ninja Village, cut off food and grass, and cut off one of Kumogakure's Silver Horns' arms. This operation forced the Kumogakure Ninja Village to retreat and bought time for the Ninja Village to adjust its deployment. Kisakumo silently recalled the rumors about Fengmori Masaki in his heart. In the ninja school, all the glorious experiences of Konoha Academy students like Fengmori Masaki were told to every student, which made many people feel sad. He respected him, and Hatake Sakumo also felt that this person was very powerful. "I don't know what kind of person he is. I hope we can get along well." As Hatake Sakumo was looking forward to it, he suddenly felt someone approaching. He quickly turned around and saw a boy walking slowly towards here.
