Naruto: After traveling through time, I became the disciple of the first generation

Then Mito looked at Hashirama, and Hashirama immediately understood what he meant after receiving his gaze.

With a clap of his hands, golden branches rose from the ground one by one and wrapped up Youhong.

While Tomohiro was confused, part of Hashirama's vitality was gradually transferred into Tomohiro's body.

The hair that had begun to turn pale gradually began to turn back to bright red.

Youhong himself can also feel that his body is getting stronger!

By the time the ability ended, Youhong's hair had turned completely red and he looked radiant.

Most of the wrinkles on his face disappeared, and he looked a lot younger.

However, his face is still rather old, and he looks about ten years younger.

This was also the result of Hashirama's deliberate effort.

After all, they were planning to make Youhong the clan leader. How could he convince others with a young face without any dignity?

"Me, me!" Youhong touched his face and felt that his wrinkles had obviously decreased a lot.

He pulled his long hair to his eyes again and found that the hair that had been obviously white had turned bright red again! He was full of vitality again.

Youhong just felt that he was in a very bad state and had endless energy.

"This is a reward for you. Without you, the future of the Uzumaki clan would be uncertain."

Youhong shook his head: "How can I get such a reward for what I have done? You are all my relatives. I just did what I should do!"

Hashirama smiled slightly: "In such a war-torn situation, it is not easy to do what should be done."

"So there's no need for you to be modest."

Tomohiro scratched his head, but he was very happy in his heart, because this meant that Hashirama, Mito and Lord Ashina approved of his behavior.

"It's like this, Youhong, we asked you to come here for something more important besides the reward."

Upon hearing this, Youhong immediately sat up straight and said, "Go ahead, sir. I'm listening."

This kind of thing shouldn't be said by Hashirama, so Mito took over the topic and said, "It's like this, after discussion, the three of us have unanimously decided to let Tomohiro become the new leader of the Uzumaki clan."

Youhong was completely confused after hearing this, his head was buzzing, and he was not sure what he had heard.

"My Lord? Are you kidding me?"

Mito's expression was very serious: "How can this be a joke? From today on, I will be the head of the Uzumaki clan!"

Only then did Tomohiro realize that Lord Mito seemed to be serious!

But how can he become the patriarch!

To become the leader of a tribe, one must first have strong power. This alone leaves him with absolutely no chance.

"My Lords, I am so weak, just a jonin, how can I take on such an important task as the clan leader!"

Seeing that Tomohiro looked like he wanted to refuse, Hashirama spoke again.

"Strength does not determine everything. You have the most say among these tribesmen, and everyone trusts you, so you are the best choice to become the elder."

"You are indeed a little weaker, but we still have Mito and Ashina for the battle, so you don't need to do anything."

Tomohiro wanted to say something, but was blocked by Hashirama again.

"Alright, this time I'm here to inform you that you are now the clan leader, not to discuss this with you."

"Currently, all the ninjas in the Uzumaki clan are very young, and you are the only one who can control the overall situation, so you are the only one who can be the clan leader."

"We are all old and free-spirited, and we don't want to get involved in that kind of thing anymore."

So, Youhong nodded helplessly: "Well, it seems that I can only agree."

Hashirama and the other two smiled slightly when they heard this: "Before the next clan leader is selected, you must work hard to develop the Uzumaki clan. Don't slack off."

Youhong nodded: "Of course I know this. I will put the development of the Uzumaki clan first."

Nowadays, most of the Uzumaki clan's ninjas are in their teens.

And there are no particularly outstanding ones or those with excellent leadership abilities.

It will take at least ten to twenty years to elect the next clan leader.

After such a long time, the Uzumaki clan must have developed to the point where it is close to other clans.

By that time, the family will be able to operate on its own, and Youhong's burden can be truly lifted.

"Okay, you can ask the tribesmen to go buy food or go out for dinner."

"If you need to go to the vegetable market, just find a member of the Thousand Hands tribe and ask him to lead the way."

Now that the main things had been said, Hashirama didn't want to keep Tomohiro here wasting time.

The people of the Uzumaki tribe are all hungry. If they don’t have money, they will have to go to bed hungry tonight.

After Tomohiro left, Ashina nodded with satisfaction: "Although his strength is a little weak, he fully meets my requirements in terms of family sentiment."

The matter of the clan leader was discussed by the three of them together. Ashina didn't want what happened in the Wind Realm Whirlpool Country to happen again.

So the three of them unanimously decided that all future clan leaders would be selected through selection.

The clan leader chosen in this way is unanimously recognized by all the clan members, just like the selection of the Hokage.

This method can effectively avoid the emergence of incompetent patriarchs due to hereditary succession.

It will also reduce some of the "nobles" within the clan, such as relatives and friends of the clan leader's family.

Everyone has the opportunity to become a patriarch and realize their ambitions, which is a good model.

The first election was held directly among the three of them.

Because the result of the election is obvious, it will definitely be Youhong.

After all, he led these tribesmen all the way to the valley and then to Konoha Village. His status in the hearts of his tribesmen is very likely to exceed that of Hashirama and Mito.

"Let's see what the family will become in the future. As long as it's not too biased, we should not care."

Mito and Hashirama reunited the Uzumaki and Senju clan teams.

Whether they can move towards a better future depends on them.

The Senju clan now has three to four hundred members, and Hashirama is still temporarily acting as the clan leader.

Because the Senju clan today can be said to be suffering from a serious loss of talent.

The abilities granted by blood have become so thin that they can be ignored.

Among the four hundred clan members, Hashirama believed that there was no ninja who could take on the leading role.

However, although there are no particularly shining new stars, there are no decadent people either.

Although everyone's abilities are average, they all work very hard.

Especially now that the Senju clan has returned, every member of the clan feels very nervous.

He constantly wanted to improve himself and prove that he was worthy of the name of the Senju clan.

If they just become complacent about their surname and don't work hard, they will become a laughing stock sooner or later.
