I, Sarutobi Hiruzen!Three generations of Hokage

Naruto Office.

Koharu Koharu, Mito Monohan, and Danzo Shimura...are gathered here.

All the elders of Konoha are present.

After turning to bed, Koharu looked at the only fat man in the corner: "Why is Hiruzen gathering us here for something important? He even invited Feng Feng over."

Akimichi Tifeng waved his hand: "First of all, let's talk about it. I was just invited by Hiruzen to make a special trip. I'm not interested in your bullshit political fights. It's better for me to stay in the comfort of the barbecue restaurant at home."

Mitomon Yan said: "When Hiruzen comes over, everything will be known, just wait a moment."

Shimura Danzo said nothing, and the gloominess on his face remained unchanged.

He didn't have a good look on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Squeak..."

The door is pushed open.

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked in slowly, pipe in hand.

Behind him was an ANBU, carrying two wooden boxes for unknown purposes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat on the Hokage's seat and said, "Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

Koharu turned to bed and said, "Hiruzhan, we are all very busy. What is it that is worthy of you inviting all of us here?"

Mito Kadoyan nodded, what he wanted to ask was the same as Koharu who was transferred to bed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Open it."

The ANBU obeyed the order and opened the two wooden boxes respectively.

The box contains shurikens, kunai, senbon and other commonly used blades for ninjas.

"Lord Hokage, my subordinates are resigning."

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Yes."

After the ANBU retreated.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Come and take a look."

Mito Kadoyan stepped forward first and took out a thousand books from the wooden box.

"What's the difference between ordinary Qianben?" he asked.

After going to bed, Koharu compared the two boxes of shurikens and kunai, and said in surprise: "The quality of the blades in the wooden box on the right is significantly improved compared to the blades in the wooden box on the left."

"That's right." Exhaling a puff of smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "So far, the quality of the blades in the hands of the village ninjas cannot be said to be perfect. I plan to set up a blade manufacturing department in Konoha. The blade manufacturing department will be responsible for forging what Konoha needs. The quality of the cutting tools is the best in your hands.”

When he went to bed, Koharu played with a good quality kunai with both hands, his eyes filled with surprise.

Blades are very important to ninjas. A good bladed weapon can greatly enhance a ninja's strength.

For example, the White Fang short blade in the hand of Hatake Sakumo.

With the White Fang Short Blade, Sakumo's combat power can be increased by at least [-]%.

However, good cutting tools are hard to come by, not something you can just make if you want to.

A blacksmith master can't even claim to be able to forge a few powerful blades in his lifetime.

Take Kirigakure Village as an example. From the Warring States Period to the present, there are only seven famous ninja swords.In addition to their own strength, the blessings brought to them by the Ninja Blade should not be underestimated.

Although the blades Sarutobi Hiruzen brought did not meet the standards of divine weapons, one thing should be known, these were just ordinary blades and consumables on the battlefield.

Even so, the blessing it brings to the ninjas is not small.

"If the blades used by Konoha ninjas can reach this level, Konoha's strength will rise to a higher level." Koharu said solemnly when he went to bed.

"It's feasible." Mito Menyan nodded.

He would not refuse anything that was beneficial to Konoha.

"Danzo, what about you?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Shimura Danzo who said nothing.

Danzo Shimura said resentfully: "I have no reason to refuse."

After questioning the three people, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Akimichi Tifeng: "Torifeng, I called you here this time for this matter."

Qiudao Feng said: "Just tell me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "The forging method that can improve the quality of blades is not easy to spread. To establish the forging department, I need someone I can trust to take charge."

Akimichi Tofaze said angrily: "I don't want to get involved in Konoha's political affairs. Don't mention this matter again."

Koharu went to bed to smooth things over: "I know you have complaints against us, but we are doing everything for Konoha. No one can deny this. The establishment of the foundry department is a top priority, and only you can do this. That’s all.”

Akimichi Tofaze looked at Danzo: "For Konoha? What a joke. The one who harmed the Namikaze boy is..."

"Forget it, the matter is in the past, so don't mention it." Qiudao Qifeng said, "I won't agree. As for the other candidates, you can make up your own mind."

After speaking, he slammed the door and walked out.

Danzo Shimura sighed, frowning as if he was remembering something.

"I'm going to persuade him to take the wind." Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and walked out the door.

When he went out, he looked back and said: "The foundry department is established for Konoha, so we can't be careless. Xiaoharu, you are in charge of Konoha's finances, and you need to allocate funds for the establishment of the foundry department."

When Xiaochun went to bed, his face looked ugly, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."

Sarutobi Hiruzen left the Hokage's office, feeling relieved.

Regardless of Hokage's superficial glory, his authority is no greater than that of the elders.

The Konoha Council of Elders is composed of the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the root leader Shimura Danzo, the financial manager Koharu Koharu, Mito Monobu who unites most departments in Konoha, and the heads of the major families.

Normally, when Konoha makes big moves externally, such as the outbreak of war... everyone in the elder group will be gathered to formulate a battle plan.

If it is an internal reform, like establishing a blade casting department, the four people of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kaden and Shimura Danzo can make the decision.

Shimura Danzo is in charge of the ANBU and uses despicable means to deal with all targets that are detrimental to Konoha.

Koharu was transferred to be in charge of the finances. On weekdays, Konoha Village's expenses, such as pensions and mission rewards... were all settled from her hands.

Mito Kaden is in charge of some miscellaneous departments, such as the Procurement Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs... Although they are complex, they have great power in their hands.

The Hokage is in charge of the ANBU and the Intelligence Department, and it is the Hokage who makes the final decision on some big decisions.

Several people belong to different places, checking and balancing each other.

This plan was made by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama when he was still alive.

Logically speaking, there is no problem. After all, a person's energy is limited, and it is impossible to rely solely on the Hokage to support the operation of Konoha.

But looking at it now, Koharu Koharu, Shimura Danzo, and Mito Kadenyan are all stumbling blocks for Sarutobi Hiruzen to develop Konoha.

Especially Danzo Shimura, if Hiruzen Sarutobi makes any big decisions, he is determined to jump in and disrupt the situation.

Only by dividing the political power in Konoha Village and gathering power in the hands of the Hokage can his ambition be gradually realized.

Establishing a blade casting department and bringing Akimichi Tofeng back to the top of Konoha was the first step of Sarutobi Hiruzen's plan.

Winning over the patriarchs of major families is also one of his goals.

The outside must be safe first!

Sarutobi Hiruzen found Akimichi Kaifu on a bridge.

"Get the wind."

Akimichi Kaifeng turned around and saw Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"You don't have to come, I won't agree."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said: "After the second generation teacher left, I haven't eaten your grilled meat for a long time, and I miss it a bit. Let's go to your shop."

"That's a good feeling."

Qiudao Qifeng said happily: "My craftsmanship has not declined over the years, I will definitely let you have a good taste."

"it is good."
