Naruto Big Draw

After wandering around, I came to Atobe's office, and Kannaten knocked on the door next door, and heard a voice asking to come in.

"Lord Atobe, you are free," Kannaten greeted.

Enshouya Ajibe looked up from the pile of papers and saw it was Kannaten. He replied with a smile: "Since it is Kannaten-sama, of course he is free, please wait a moment."

It's quite interesting that the two of them call each other "sir".

Atobe is an out-and-out old man with sparse white hair and deep bags under his eyes. Because his teeth are basically gone and his lips are sunken, his chin appears to be raised high. But he is still in good spirits and looks like he has a lot of life left. Year. Setting: Enshou Yajibe is the old man with a cane who sent Terumi Mei out on behalf of Kirigakure Village on the eve of the Five Kage Conference in 63. He was really old at that time, and his hands were still there when he handed over the Mizukage hat. Shake... Appears in Chapter 454 of the original novel

Atobe took off his glasses and went to the bathroom to wash his face. Taking advantage of this time, Kannaten found Shibuya Ran and arranged a closed conference room. Then Atobe held on to his exquisite crutch with a cockscomb and an animal head, and slowly followed Kannaten into the conference room.

In the conference room, Kannaten didn't rush into the topic and said casually: "The workload has been getting bigger and bigger these days. Can Atobe-sama still bear it?"

Atobe laughed, pursed his lips, and waved his hands: "It's not as good as when I was young, but my body can still bear it. Please worry about it."

"It should be." Kannaitian smiled, "You are a senior after all. Think about it, the old people of the previous generation in Kirigakure Village are now dying and getting injured. If you want to be a ninja in a profession that goes smoothly, It’s really difficult to live into old age..."

Atobe coughed dryly, feeling a little bit dumbfounded. If he hadn't worked with Kannaiten for a while and knew the other person's style of speaking and doing things, another person would have thought that what he just said was a curse on him to die soon.

"How is your father today?"

"Thank you for your concern. Everything is fine." Shen Naitian replied, "But I'm probably going to leave soon, probably very soon."

In the absence of Mizukage, the division of labor between the two fathers and sons, Kanna Tokiomi and Kanna Ten, must be staggered. This is the art of checking and balancing power. Never create opportunities for your subordinates. Human nature cannot withstand the test.

Originally, among Kannaten and Kanna Tokiomi, the Sandaime Mizukage was inclined to arrange for Tokiomi to stay at the headquarters. However, considering his son's future and the safety of the front line, Tokiomi strongly insisted on a replacement, and the Sandaime agreed after thinking about it.

After chatting for a while, Kannaitian asked a question.

"Speaking of which, Atobe-sama, do you have any plans for your future work, or do you have any ideas?"

"Oh" Atobe was a little surprised and replied: "My personal opinion is to retire. I have been a ninja for more than sixty years and I am really tired."

Kannaten said calmly: "Really? That's a pity. I thought there would be more opportunities to learn from an outstanding ninja like you in the future."

Although Atobe knew that Kannaiten was flattering him, he was very happy to hear it and said with a smile: "Of course there is a chance, even if I retire, I welcome young heroes like you, Kannaiten-sama, to visit the old man."

Kannaten waved his hands quickly: "Heroes are not considered heroes, but they are really over the top. I just think that an old man with considerable life experience and ninja experience should not just quit the ninja world."

Atobe seemed to hear something unusual and asked: "What do you mean?"

Kanna Tenshu stretched his arms and said leisurely: "It seems that the Presbyterian Council advisory system in Kirigakure Village has not been abolished..."

This is the truth. The decision-making configuration of the Kage consultants was decided long before the Five Shadows Conference was held. In other words, it was learned by the four major ninja villages after the Konoha. The few people behind the shadow were actually equivalent to the assistants later on, except that there was no such title as "assistant" at that time, but the rights and obligations exercised were the same.

Facts have proved that this system is very effective, so even if Long assassinated the elders of the previous generation of Kirigakure Village, he did not dare to abolish it blatantly, and the seat of the positional elders council has always been vacant.

.

It wasn't until the Nichirin family's research on tailed beasts made a breakthrough that the family's power gradually recovered. Some people began to propose restoring the Council of Elders system, but they were suppressed by the third generation, and the reason was very good: the alternation of shadows was about to begin. It has been a few years, and now I have chosen a consultant. What if the cooperation with the new film is not good when the time comes? Should I change the person and choose another one? Let's just leave it until after the change of office, and let the next generation of film solve the problem.

After Kannatian's reminder, Atobu also understood what the other party was thinking.

"Old man, I don't expect to be a consultant." Atobe said deliberately, testing Kannaten, "But your father, Tokiomi-sama, is very hopeful. What if the old man didn't help?"

"I accept your offer, but besides you, who else is more suitable for this position?" Kannaitian said with a smile, "The top decision-making group of four, Mizukage, assistant, two consultants, this assistant, the next Mizukage Whether it is necessary or not is another matter, but it is imperative to restore the Presbyterian Church. After all, without consultants, it is inconvenient for Xinying to familiarize himself with the work, which is not conducive to receiving rights. What do you think?"

Kannaten, this is nonsense. Yes, a very important task of the consultant is to help the new shadows receive his rights as soon as possible during the change of ninja village. For example, in the later Konoha Village, Koharu and In order to calm down the turmoil in the village, Mito Kaden selected the Fifth Hokage. It took a lot of effort, but those consultants were all experienced seniors who had assisted the Kage for more than ten years, real elites in the ninja world. Since the election of the Presbyterian Council was canceled in Kirigakure Village, most of the political power has been firmly held by the third generation Mizukage, while a small part has fallen into the hands of major families. If the next regime really restores the Presbyterian Council system, the new government will It is not certain who the chosen consultant will be.

Atobe pondered for a moment and said: "I heard that the Sandaime Mizukage intends to train you to become the assistant of the next generation of Kage and take over your father's position, so there should be an assistant in the group of four."

Kannaitian said calmly: "It's just a rumor, it can't be taken as true."

Kannaiten would rather have a ministerial position with real power than be an assistant to a certain Kage. Think about how strong the relationship between Danzo and Sarutobi is. When the two were young, it could be said that their lives depended on each other and their lives depended on each other. Danzo was trusted by Sarutobi and was clearly an assistant to the Hokage without military authority. However, he was ordered by Sarutobi to form the ANBU training department. This was equivalent to handing over some candidates for the ANBU, the Hokage's direct unit, to Danzo. If Danzo really had If you are against your will, it would be easy to plant a few spies or killers. Such a strong relationship, in the end, Sarutobi dismissed his assistant position with just one word. In the original plot of the anime, there is a plot where Danzo sends people to assassinate Naruto, but I think it is not so much that Danzo wants Sarutobi's life. It is said to express dissatisfaction, which is equivalent to going too far in the dormitory, scaring the roommate with a fruit knife and saying, believe it or not, I will chop you to death... Of course, the original plots in the animation are secondaries. , there are many bugs, just take a look, don’t take it too seriously.

The position of assistant is not a required appointment in the first place. You can take it if you want it, and you can remove it at any time if you don't want it. There is no need to pass the procedural review. Kannaiten will never take this position as an assistant.

But for this consultant position, he has some extra ideas.

"Actually, I think the distribution of rights and obligations among the consultants in the ninja world is too vague." Kannaten said slowly, "Basically, within the scope of affairs under the jurisdiction of the Kage, they can all speak and help the Kage make plans. , do you think such a general responsibility is appropriate?"

Atobe neither said yes nor bad, but asked instead: "What do you mean by Kannaten-sama?"

Kannaitian closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa. He was silent for a long time before uttering a sentence.

"Division of labor"

"Need to divide labor"

"It is best to divide the responsibilities of the two aspects of economic and military work and entrust them to consultants. The consultants will report directly to the shadow and be responsible. This can also easily reduce the burden on the shadow."

As he spoke, Kannaitian raised his hand and flicked his nails on a document that slid out, making a clicking sound.

"You see, the two of us share the work, and we still have such a heavy workload. You can imagine how heavy the work pressure of Mizukage is on weekdays." Kannaitian showed a meaningful smile, "If it will be If the economic and military tasks are shared, the next generation of Mizukages will have a much easier time."
