Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit.

Kushina didn't have a chance with Minato Namikaze, she just sighed and told him about the recent situation of the Uzumaki clan.

Namikaze Minato was a little confused: "The railway construction in Whirlpool Country? Well, I did hear something. I heard that there was trouble there, but I can guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with Hokage."

Kushina rolled her eyes at Minato Namikaze: "Do you think I'm stupid? How could Hokage, who is so smart, do such a crude thing? It's obvious that this was caused by those unlucky elders of the Uzumaki clan."

Namikaze Minato: "Ah? Them? But the completion of the railway will also be beneficial to them, right?! Why would they do this?"

Kushina spread her hands: "So I said they are unlucky."

Namikaze Minato was speechless: "...It's really unlucky."

Kushina waved her hands and said, "Forget it, forget it. Let's not talk about them. Let's talk about you. Didn't I hear that the Hokage intends to choose you as the successor to the next Hokage? If you agree, you will be the Fourth Hokage!"

Namikaze Minato waved his hands repeatedly with a look of disgust: "No, no, no, I am not suitable, not suitable."

Kushina smiled and said, "Why is it inappropriate? When I was chatting with Sister Mikoto, she always said that you are very good. If you get promoted, the Uchiha clan will definitely support you~"

Namikaze Minato looked at Kushina speechlessly: "Have you ever thought about what Mikoto said, why doesn't she support Brother Fugaku?"

Kushina asked with a confused look on her face, "Can an Uchiha still be Hokage?"

Namikaze Minato: "...You, don't be misled by those conspiracy theories. Believe it or not, in another ten years, Uchiha Shisui may be the most suitable person to become Hokage."

"Uchiha Shisui?" Kushina thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "Who is it?"

Namikaze Minato: "..."

Well, Shisui is not famous.

At least not now.

"Well, don't worry about it. Anyway, I've seen him before. He's calm and reserved. I don't know what he's been through, but he always considers everything very thoroughly before implementing anything. And every time he deals with a new policy, he first finds an area to try it out for a while, and only implements it after making sure there are no problems.

Hokage has said many times that Shisui is too steady and lacks ambition, but we all think that if Shisui can always maintain this original intention, then he will be the perfect candidate to succeed Hokage."

Kushina asked confusedly, "Why?"

Namikaze Minato showed a slightly sarcastic smile on his face: "Because he is stable enough, many vested interests in Lord Yuya's era can still benefit after he takes office."

Kushina was a little dissatisfied: "This is too utilitarian."

Namikaze Minato ruffled Kushina's hair: "There is no other way. Konoha Village is too big now. Except for Lord Yuya, no one is sure that they can do a good job, even Lord Hokage himself..."

Kushina was stunned when she heard this, then frowned and looked at Minato Namikaze: "Don't say bad things about Lord Yua, otherwise many people will be dissatisfied with you."

Minato Namikaze knew he had said the wrong thing and immediately made amends, "I'm not saying that Master Yuya is not doing a good job, it's just... Master Yuya is a good hand at developing the village, but because of this, he has no energy to take care of his family.

You know Yugi, the eldest son of Yuya-sama, right? "

"Ah, the one about the travelogue who spent most of his time in the military camp?"

"Well, he fell in love with a girl from the Hidden Cloud Village. That's not the point. The point is that he wants to go to the Hidden Cloud Village and settle down with that girl."

Kushina took a deep breath and said, "Hiss, I really don't know. Isn't he afraid that if he goes to the Hidden Cloud Village, the people there will use him to threaten our village?"

Namikaze Minato suddenly laughed: "You see, you understand the truth, but Yugi doesn't, so you know why Lord Yua has been exhausted recently?"

Kushina smiled and hugged Minato Namikaze: "If that's the case, then you really shouldn't be the Hokage."

Namikaze Minato nodded repeatedly: "Konoha is developing too fast and too rapidly now, and there are too many people. If you want to manage it in an orderly manner, even if you are as capable as Lord Yuya, you still can't take care of your family 100%. I don't have such big ambitions. I just want to take good care of my family, take good care of you, take good care of Naruto and the flower spirits. I really don't care about other things."

Kushina immediately nodded with a look of happiness on her face.

Then, after thinking for a while, Kushina said angrily: "If only those old guys in the Uzumaki clan had the same idea as you, they wouldn't do such a stupid thing."

Namikaze Minato: "..."

As expected, Kushina still cares about the Uzumaki clan.

Although those old guys are unreliable, after all, the Uzumaki clan has more than just these few old guys.

……

Uchiha tribe:

Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but complain while applying medicine to Sasuke: "Don't you think that every time you fight with Naruto, it's too cruel?"

Sasuke thought his mother was saying that he was beaten badly, so he immediately jumped up and said, "Mom! I beat that guy Naruto badly, too! I beat him badly, too!"

Uchiha Mikoto suddenly knocked Sasuke's head with a frown on her face: "You are three months older than him, you are the older brother, why do you always bully him?!"

Sasuke covered his head with his hands, looking aggrieved: "Who told him to always provoke me."

"I am back."

At this time, Uchiha Itachi also went home from school.

Uchiha Itachi graduated from the Ninja School last year and got his diploma. Starting this year, he will prepare for the college entrance examination.

After all, in Konoha Village now, only college students are the real superior people, the kind that everyone is scrambling to find a job.

Uchiha Mikoto looked at Uchiha Itachi and said unhappily, "Itachi! You passed! Who asked you to teach Sasuke those Taijutsu and Shuriken Techniques? Did you know that Sasuke beat up his classmates again today?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded and said, "As long as Sasuke doesn't lose, it's fine."

Sasuke grinned at that.

Mikoto glared at her eldest son's trembling fingers, then turned around and began to look for the feather duster in the house.

Itachi suddenly looked panicked, grabbed Sasuke's hand and said, "Sasuke and I are going to visit grandpa and grandma today, and we will be back in two days!"

"Stop right there! Both of you stop right there!"

night:

Mikoto and Fugaku were also talking about the next Hokage.

Now basically everyone in the Jonin circle in Konoha Village knows that Yuya wants to find the Fourth Hokage.

The question is who will take over.

But Mikoto and Fugaku knew their own affairs, and it was impossible for them to choose Hokage.

Fugaku has been somewhat happy recently, because as Yuya has decided to look for a successor, and because he is uncertain about the next Hokage's attitude towards Uchiha, Fugaku has recently persuaded the elders of his family to give up their clan land, and the progress of integrating into Konoha Village has accelerated a lot.

Except for some old guys who were reluctant to give up their current and future interests, Fugaku even felt that if he announced the dissolution of the Uchiha clan on the day Yuya announced his resignation as Hokage, there would definitely be people willing to follow him.

And by then, his long-cherished wish will be fulfilled.

As long as the Uchiha clan integrates into the village, it will no longer be possible for them to be ostracized by the village and want to rebel.

He would never forget the family atmosphere during the reign of Senju Tobirama.

That was what his father told him, a situation that was literally just one step away from a powder keg exploding.

Fortunately, Youya stabilized the situation and led the Uchiha clan to safety.

Now, although the situation that the Uchiha clan has to face is troublesome, there is no risk of rebellion and extermination.

that's enough.
