because.

With a smile on his face at this time, Suan grabbed Sandaime's hand tightly, and stretched out his other hand to "gently pat" the back of Sandaime's hand.

In the eyes of an uninformed outsider.

This is obviously an intimate and heartwarming scene, which is enough to show how warm the friendship between Suan and the Sandaime is.

This is the broken handshake kill.

The first step is to smile and shake hands normally;

In the second step, when the opponent is not paying attention, suddenly exert force and pull the opponent over like a tug of war;

The third step is to grab the other person's hand tightly so that he cannot break free, and then tap the back of the other person's hand. Use this body language to completely take control of the initiative and declare victory.

thus.

Facing Duan's shameless sneak attack, although the Sandaime had already cursed in his heart, the smile on his face became even brighter in order not to be noticed by others.

He laughed so hard that his wrinkles rose.

In order to regain face and reverse the situation.

Sandaime smiled and stretched out his other hand, trying to pat the broken shoulder, but the latter was too high for him to reach.

The third generation's smile gradually became awkward.

fortunately.

At this moment, he finally let go of the Sandaime's hand, ending the twenty-second "marathon awkward hold".

hiss.

The Sandaime secretly took a breath of air. The entire back of his hand had turned white, leaving clear broken fingerprints.

The most annoying thing is.

Having just been tricked by Dan in this way, the Sandaime still forced a smile, invited Dan to face everyone in Konoha with him, and announced loudly:

"During this turmoil, Uchiha Dan defeated Akatsuki's conspiracy and made great contributions to protecting Konoha. In addition, he also exposed Danzo's true face and helped the village eradicate the cancer of root tissue. Dan devoted himself to Konoha, Therefore, he fully deserves the position of Assistant Hokage!"

The words fell.

The scene was quiet and there was no reaction.

Uchiha Dan is doing his best for the village? Even if this was said from the mouth of the highly respected Sandaime, it would be difficult for people to believe it.

Everyone knew the real reason. It was the power of the Dan and Uchiha clan that threatened the top management of Konoha, so the Sandaime had to compromise and tell lies with his eyes open.

this moment.

Everyone in Konoha unanimously chose to express their protest with silence.

at this time.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Someone took the lead in applauding, and the sound was still loud.

He actually cut himself off.

With a smile on his face, he ignored the protests of everyone in Konoha and applauded himself to celebrate.

The Uchiha people in the audience quickly reacted, and under the leadership of Fugaku, they applauded enthusiastically and cheered loudly.

"well."

The clan heads of the three Zhuludie families looked at each other and sighed.

Regardless of whether they are willing or not, it is an ironclad fact that they will definitely become Hokage's assistant.

In the end, everyone in Konoha could only reluctantly raise their hands and contribute sparse applause.

after.

In the eyes of the Sandaime.

Just conferring duties on Duan seems not enough.

"Jan, to congratulate you on becoming Hokage's assistant, I have a gift for you."

The Sandaime looked solemn and waved to the side, and an ANBU quickly came on stage and brought a plate, with an armband quietly placed inside.

Amid the curious looks on everyone's faces in Konoha, the Sandaime picked up the armband.

It is about the size of a palm and is exquisitely made. It has a white background with red flame patterns and a word "fire" in the middle.

This is an armband symbolizing the Will of Fire.

then.

Under everyone's extremely surprised gaze, the Sandaime even personally put on the armband for Sudan.

See this scene.

boom.

The crowd immediately exploded.

Especially the clan leaders and jounin of Konoha, after they saw the Sandaime's actions, they quickly realized its meaning.

The Sandaime is sending a signal to everyone:

Uchiha Dan was his designated Hokage candidate.

"Jiang, how about it, do you like this gift?"

The Sandaime asked, his eyes full of expectation and his face full of kindness.

If it were anyone else, facing this situation, they would have been moved to tears and would have sworn to sacrifice their lives for Konoha on the spot.

Duan just smiled faintly and replied:

"Of course, I love it."

His heart was not moved at all.

Because Duan knew clearly that everything in front of him was false, and it was just a deliberate show by the Sandaime to show him.

Not to mention anything else, at least in terms of acting, the Sandaime absolutely blew Danzo away.

"Tell everyone a few words."

The Sandaime made another suggestion, signaling everyone present to quiet down and listen carefully to the speech of the newly promoted Hokage assistant.

"Ahem."

Duan cleared his throat, stood on the stage and looked down at the people of Konoha, his indifferent eyes sweeping across the crowd.

Then, he spoke slowly in a voice that everyone could hear:

"The will of fire is to burn everything."

Chapter 131, I am the fireman, you are the firewood

The will of fire is to burn everything.

Suichi opened his mouth with such shocking words, which stunned everyone present, including the Sandaime.

Before everyone could come to their senses.

Duan looked at the clan leaders and jounin of each clan again, and said "sincerely":

“For the sake of Konoha, you people should take the initiative to set an example and become the first batch of firewood to burn yourselves to light up the village.

Please rest assured that your sacrifices will be turned into nutrients, allowing the big tree of Konoha to grow stronger.

And I, Uchiha Dan.

He is not a Hokage assistant, just a humble fireman. I just want to serve Konoha in obscurity and diligently, dedicating my life to the Will of Fire. "

This is the declaration of office.

Although there are only a few words, they sound heartwarming and heartfelt.

Especially when Duan said with an emotional expression that he would dedicate his life to Konoha, even he was almost moved.

But.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear anyone's applause.

The Konoha clan leader and Jonin opposite him all had their mouths wide open and their eyes widened. They all looked frightened and shuddered.

once.

They thought that Danzo was already dark enough, and relying on his status as Hokage's assistant, they went around asking for people, kidnapping geniuses from all races and bringing them in for brainwashing.

But now compared to Danzo, Danzo pales into insignificance.

It has been clearly stated.

He is the fireman, and everyone in Konoha is the firewood. His job is to throw the firewood into the fire, let the burning fire illuminate Konoha, and bring warmth to the "villagers".

What kind of will of fire is this? !

"What happen to you guys?"

Duan saw everyone's expressions and felt puzzled.

In his opinion, hasn't the so-called Will of Fire always been like this? Why do these people seem to be so late-minded?

"Break!"

A shout came from the crowd.

It turned out to be the passionate young man Metkay who bravely stood up because he couldn't stand the endless nonsense.

He looked directly at Duan resolutely, and on behalf of everyone behind him, he questioned him unceremoniously:

"Since you said so righteously that the Will of Fire treats everyone as burning firewood, then as the Hokage's assistant, why don't you take the lead and be the first to sacrifice for the village?"

The words just fell.

"well said!"

Everyone agreed, and wanted to see how Duan planned to quibble.

Duan shook his head and laughed silently:

"It seems that you all superficially believe that the Will of Fire means that the village forces you to sacrifice, making you seem to be great. No, this is your opportunity, and no matter how many people try to fight for it, they can't win it!"

Without waiting for anyone to refute, Duan strode up to Kai, looked down at the latter and continued:

“Just like your father, Matt Day.

He has a mediocre talent and has been a genin in Konoha for twenty years. He has been ridiculed and ridiculed all year round, and he has to kneel down and beg his teammates not to kick him out of the team.

Although Materdai always messed up things, the village always supported him and assigned him simple tasks such as catching cats and serving as a servant to noble ladies.

It wasn't until the Third Ninja War broke out that Dai finally found the opportunity to burn himself and used the Eight Gate Dungeon to defeat Kirigakure's seven Ninja Swordsmen.

Although he died, he became a hero of Konoha and will always live in the hearts of the villagers.

If Dai had not become firewood, he would probably still be the genin who had been laughed at for thousands of years, unable to hold his head up for the rest of his life, and finally died in obscurity.

Likewise, if there is no active sacrifice without wearing it.

Metkai, do you think you are qualified to stand here and talk to me now that you have become a Jonin? "

These words made Metkai stunned.

His mind was spinning slowly, and for a moment he had no way to logically refute Duan. He could only hold back his blush and asked Duan:

"But at the beginning, didn't you always advise my father not to go to the battlefield or to be used as firewood?"

In Kay's opinion.

He is obviously a man who changes his mind at random times. What he once said has completely changed his mind so quickly.

How could such a person be trusted by everyone to serve as Hokage's assistant?

Faced with Kai's doubts.

He sighed:

"I am ashamed to say that at that time, I was not a glorious Konoha ninja, but just an ignorant and short-sighted ordinary person."
