Then, he looked at the Sandaime aside with a grateful look:

"However, the Sandaime used his words and deeds to make me understand what the true will of fire is, and also made me realize how shallow I was in the past. The Sandaime promoted me from a commoner to the Hokage's assistant, and I, Uchiha, decided that I would not Disappoint his old man’s expectations!”

When the Sandaime heard this, his face twitched unnaturally and he forced a smile.

The words are not finished yet.

He glanced past Metkai, looked at everyone in Konoha, and raised his voice:

"If one day, I, a fire-burner, can get the opportunity to burn myself. Then I will not hesitate to follow the steps of the Third Generation and devote myself to the great will of fire."

These words make him regard death as home.

But everyone heard that there was a premise.

That is, the Sandaime must sacrifice first, and Dan will sacrifice next.

after all.

Speaking of taking the lead, the Hokage's priority must be before the Hokage's assistance.

This can set an example, right?

Okay, that's almost it.

The Sandaime finally couldn't stand it anymore. He coughed twice and stood up to take over the words.

"Duan's understanding of the Will of Fire has certain merits, but there are also some extreme aspects..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he helped Duan make amends.

have to say.

The Sandaime's forty years as Hokage really wasn't for nothing. At least in terms of his speech skills, he has become extremely proficient.

No one in Konoha can match him.

His speech lasted for more than ten minutes.

Everyone in Konoha quickly forgot about the "fallacy" Duan had just said, and once again allowed their hearts to be bathed in the orthodox will of fire.

When the speech is finished.

The Sandaime accidentally saw a palm-sized leaf falling from a big tree by the roadside, and was blown by the wind and floated over his head.

Uh-huh.

The Sandaime stretched out his hand and caught the leaf.

Then.

He glanced at the end, then looked at the Uchiha people in the audience, and finally raised the leaf and said loudly to everyone:

"Wood and leaves are originally one. Without wood, there would be no lush leaves. Without leaves, wood cannot survive for a long time. The village is wood, and Uchiha and all the ninjas are leaves. They cannot live without each other and will always be with each other. Dependence. This is what Konoha means!"

These sincere words moved many people present and were deeply moved.

Especially a guy like Metkai was so excited that he clenched his fists, his eyes filled with tears, and he wished he could sacrifice himself for Konoha right away.

It seems that everyone believes in the Will of Fire again.

The Sandaime breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

In order to prevent Duan from acting like a monster again, he quickly announced:

The appointment ceremony is over, and everyone can go back to their homes and go about their business.

"Jiang, I'm sorry, this ceremony is still a little simple. But these are extraordinary times, time and conditions are limited, I hope you can understand."

The Sandaime stopped and stopped.

Suan heard what the Sandaime was saying, his eyes flashed, and he asked: "When will I go to work?"

This is what I was waiting for.

"Koharu and Yan are also here, so why don't the four of us hold a high-level meeting immediately to discuss important matters. What do you think?" the Sandaime asked immediately.

"sure."

Duan nodded and agreed readily.

He winked at Fugaku and asked his brother-in-law to take the Uchiha people back first without worrying about him.

then.

As the newly promoted Hokage's assistant, Suan walked into the Hokage building with the Sandaime and two advisory elders.

ten minutes later.

In the Hokage's office, three leather sofas surround a coffee table, and each of the Konoha F4s is seated.

Countless high-level meetings have been held here.

only.

The position Danzo had occupied for decades was suddenly replaced by Danzo, which made the other three feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

"No need to say any polite words, let's get started."

The Sandaime glanced at the other three and got straight to the point.

As soon as he finished speaking, he subconsciously picked up the cigarette bag beside him and planned to take a puff, but then he remembered to stop it here.

After a moment of hesitation, he calmly put away the cigarette bag.

The Sandaime's little move caught the eyes of Koharu and En, and he couldn't hide it from them.

The two of them looked at each other, then glanced at Dama Jin Dao and Uchiha Dan sitting alone on the sofa, and they both realized one thing:

In the near future.

If it is broken, it will not only replace Danzo's position, but may also go one step further than Danzo, posing a huge threat to the power of the Third Generation.

And this is actually what Xiaochun and Yan are happy to see.

because.

The two manage Konoha's huge government agencies, often communicate with the Daimyo Mansion, and are personally recognized by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, holding a transcendent status in the village.

They are there from beginning to end.

Neither on the side of the Sandaime nor on the side of Danzo, but truly doing everything for the benefit of Konoha.

for them.

Regardless of whether the Hokage or the Hokage assists, if they cannot check and balance each other, one party will completely overwhelm the other and monopolize the power.

This will inevitably lead to the expansion of ambitions of those in power and the breeding of selfish desires.

Although the two advisers did not say anything about what the Sandaime had done over the years, they had already seen it in their eyes.

Whether it is the rapid development of the Sarutobi clan or the matter of the fourth generation, we can see part of Sarutobi Hiruzen's selfishness.

Such selfishness is not good for the village.

so.

There must be a person like Danzo to curb the power and selfish desires of the Third Generation.

And Uchiha Dan can be said to be an enhanced version of Danzo.

Compared with Danzo, Suan is not only younger and stronger, but he is also ruthless and unscrupulous in his actions. He is simply the embodiment of the word darkness.

As for Dan's Uchiha identity, in fact... it is not an issue that is difficult to compromise.

As long as he does a good job and carries more darkness for Konoha, he will be recognized by the two advisors and even favored by the Daimyo of the Fire Country.

Chapter 132, three questions

Naruto assists.

After assuming this position, what is the scope of his power and what resources can he mobilize?

This issue will be the first thing to be discussed at this Konoha high-level meeting.

With a glance, the Sandaime signaled to Koharu and En on the sofa opposite that they could speak.

He gave up his position as a last resort, and anyone with a discerning eye can see this.

therefore.

The Sandaime naturally hopes that the two advisors can work with him to weaken and limit Dan's power.

Koharu and En are the bridge between Konoha and Damingfu, and their status in the village is even more stable than his Hokage.

Even if the Sandaime resigns, the two of them will not step down.

The flowing fire shadow, the iron-clad advisor.

In a sense, Koharu and En and the Konoha government agencies they represent are the real invisible rulers of the village.

As long as the Sandaime, Koharu, and En were working together, it would be easy to overpower Uchiha Dan.

Until then.

If you don't, you will become a mere commander with duties but no power.

However.

To the Sandaime's surprise, Koharu and En did not follow his will, but instead expressed full support for Quan.

"I believe that Dan's ability is fully qualified to serve as Hokage's assistant, so he should inherit all of Danzo's powers and take over the root." Koharu spoke first.

"I agree. I can definitely do better than Danzo." Yan adjusted his glasses and agreed expressionlessly.

this moment.

The two extended an olive branch to Duan.

Duan Wenyan also cast a grateful look at the two of them, and then said solemnly:

"I, Uchiha Dan, am willing to bear the darkness of Konoha, become the root hidden in the ground, and work hard and die for the village."

It sounds like it's true.

Seeing this, the Sandaime sighed inwardly.

He already understood the thoughts of the two advisors. They were just worried that he, the Hokage, would monopolize power, so he supported Dan and came to fight with him.

but.

Koharu, Yan, do you really think you can control Uchiha Dan? He is not the kind of puppet who is at your mercy.

I hope you won't regret it then.

The Sandaime looked at the two of them deeply and said nothing more.

Next.

That's the most important thing about this meeting.

The upcoming war between Konoha and Amegakure.

"What suggestions do you have for this war?" the Sandaime asked in a deep voice.

Duan rubbed his chin with his fingers, lost in thought.

Aegakure Village is the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization and is ruled by Nagato.

At this time, Akatsuki should still be in the development stage of recruiting troops. If they really fight, it is impossible to compete with Konoha head-on.

but.

If Nagato is pushed into a hurry, he may abandon Amegakure Village in anger, control Pain's six-path attack, and invade Konoha itself.

That would be great fun.

maybe.

One shot of "Super Shinra Tensei" directly destroyed Konoha Village.

Once this war starts, I'm afraid there will be no winner. The biggest possibility is to "change families."

It is destined to be a lose-lose situation.

Think of this.
