Konoha from the Heart

Chapter 336 Succession Ceremony
April [-]th, sunny, appropriate to take office.

The roads in Muye Village are covered with balloons, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere.

More than half a month ago, the haze of the death of three generations was swept away.

For Konoha, today is a day worth celebrating.Fifth Hokage Tsunade will officially take over the post today.

At this time, the square in front of the Hokage Building was already crowded with people, and on the high platform temporarily raised by the Tudun, the two senior consultant elders, Zhuanju Xiaoharu and Mito Menyan, stood at the front like two masters of ceremonies.

Behind them, five seats are lined up, and no one is sitting yet.

Farther behind, four huge human faces on Hokage Rock are solemn and solemn, and next to the head of the fourth generation, it is covered with red silk cloth, and it can be seen at a glance that it is the statue of the Fifth Hokage.

Under the high platform, two rows of wooden seats seemed to grow out of the ground, and most of the high-rises of the village were seated on them, as well as the envoys sent by the surrounding Ninja Village.

Mitomonyan looked at the time, exchanged a glance with his old partner, then stretched out his hands, pressed down, and said loudly: "Quiet!"

The sound was blessed by the formation on the stage, and it spread far away, but people who got close didn't feel it piercing their ears.

The discussion in the audience suddenly quieted down. Although it was not completely silent, it was not a serious problem.

Mitomon Yan said: "Half a month ago, the strongest Hokage in Konoha, Hiruzaru Sarutobi, the third generation, died, and the whole village was immersed in grief and anxiety, but now, with the unanimous consent of the village seniors, we will usher in a new Hokage , the Fifth Hokage. She is the granddaughter of the first and second generations, Tsunade Hime known as the legendary Sannin.

Tsunade is powerful, especially her medical ninjutsu. During World War II, she single-handedly promoted the Konoha medical ninja system. Played an inestimable role in the victory of the war...

……

Next, I invite the special envoy of the daimyo to read the letter of appointment of the Fifth Hokage.

"

As expected of Mitomonyan who has been a leader for many years, he made an opening remark for more than ten minutes, which made Shimura Danzo in the audience extremely envious.

As his words fell, an old man in fine clothes stepped onto the stage slowly from the steps beside the high platform, and then stood in the middle of the two of them, then took out a stack of manuscript papers and began his speech.

The content of the speech was similar to that of Mitomonyan's opening remarks. First, he praised the achievements of the third generation, then counted the glorious deeds of the first and second generations, and then expressed the daimyo's expectations for the new fifth generation Hokage.

By the time he finished speaking, some people in the audience had already started yawning.

Turning to bed Xiaochun saw that he had finished reading the manuscript, took a step forward, and said loudly: "The following ceremony will officially begin, and Fifth Hokage is invited to take the oath on stage."

As her words fell, a heroic figure of a woman fell beside her.

The visitor was wearing a green toga embroidered with the word "Gambling", exuding the air of a mature woman. Facing the audience, she showed no stage fright.

"I, Tsunade, hereby swear that I will inherit the glory of my predecessors and defend Konoha's glory to the death, above!"

The three old men on the stage frowned unknowingly when they heard her such a brief oath.

The audience in the audience waited for a moment, then suddenly reacted, and there was a burst of warm applause that shook the mountains.

It's not easy, I finally met a straightforward person, and I fell in love with it, this is probably the voice of most people.

However, some people are dismissive of it.

Danzang snorted coldly: "I know how to make a big splash."

The applause of Zhuanzhu Xiaochun and others was sparse, and then he took a step forward and said loudly: "Please envoy the daimyo, give the fifth generation Hokage the imperial robe and the daimyo's token."

At this time, the three Anbu ninjas each carried a tray to the center of the high platform, knelt down on one knee facing Tsunade, and raised the tray high in their hands.

It can be seen that the neatly folded imperial robes are placed on the tray on the left, the custom-made round hat of Hokage is placed on the tray on the right, and a seal is placed on the tray in the middle.

The special envoy held up the imperial robe and looked at Tsunade with a friendly smile.

I saw Tsunade pulling up the green toga from his body and throwing it to Zhuanzhu Xiaochun, then took the imperial robe from the special envoy's hand, and put it on his body, stretched out his hands from the cuffs, and casually flicked the corners of the clothes on both sides , the Royal God Robe buzzed.

Seeing this, the special envoy took the Hokage hat again, and handed it to Tsunade, who took it with both hands, and put it on his head.

Finally, the special envoy took the seal representing Hokage's power, and handed it to Tsunade respectfully with both hands.

Tsunade caught it with his right hand and raised the seal.

Turning to bed Xiaochun waited for a while, and then said loudly: "Next, I would like to invite Fifth Hokage to announce the latest personnel appointments in Konoha Ninja Village."

As her words fell, the audience suddenly became lively.

Directly announcing personnel appointments requires major changes in the top management. Otherwise, if it is just an ordinary job change, there is no need to read it here, and just post a notice.

All the people on the stage, except Tsunade, walked off the high stage amidst the discussions in the audience.At the same time, Shizune stood behind Tsunade with a tray on which was a stack of appointment letters and a printing box next to it.

Tsunade coughed, and said loudly to the audience: "Under the protection of past generations of Hokage, under the dedication of all ninjas, and the joint efforts of various ninja families, Konoha Village has survived crisis after crisis. The inheritance of the will of fire has lasted for a long time. Today, Konoha is like a big tree with luxuriant foliage, just like the branches and leaves that are constantly emerging. The talents of Konoha are also constantly emerging. I can take on more responsibilities, now, I officially announce the new appointment"

"First of all, I announce that the new class leader of the ninja class will be Asuma Sarutobi. Asuma Sarutobi is the village's elite ninja with great strength. A powerful ninja. Is there any objection!"

When the people in the audience heard about this first appointment, they suddenly became quiet. Most of the time, the squad leader of the ninja squad was idle, and only when the village was facing major decisions would he represent the ninja group to participate in high-level meetings.The status is only one level lower than the consultant, but the real power is far from it.

Originally, this position was held by Kaminobu Nara Shikahisa, but now it has been replaced by the son of the third generation, which makes everyone suspect that there is something tricky in it.

But everyone thought so in their hearts, but no one objected.

At this time, Asma Sarutobi had already walked onto the stage and saluted Tsunade.

Tsunade waited for a while, and seeing no objection, he picked up the seal and pressed heavily on the appointment letter at the top, and then handed it to Sarutobi Asma.

Asma took the letter of appointment, saluted here, then turned around and bowed to the audience, and walked off the high stage.

Then Tsunade announced the candidates for Konoha Security Minister and other five or six positions.The announcement of each position follows the same process, announcing the name, introducing the deeds, asking if there are any opponents, and then stamping and issuing the letter of appointment.

At this time, there were only four letters of appointment left on the tray. These four letters of appointment were different from the previous ones, and they were better made.

Tsunade picked up the top one, and said loudly: "Hokage's work cannot do without the support of everyone, especially the strong support of the advisory elders. I just took up the post of Hokage, and I am inexperienced, and I cannot do without the assistance of the advisors. It is announced that Mitomon will continue to serve as the advisor of Hokage, do you have any objections?"

Naturally there is not.

Mito Menyan came to the stage, received the letter of appointment, and with a smile on his face, he said to the audience: "I'm old and I can't work for a few years. I hope everyone can work harder and release me, an old guy, as soon as possible."

After speaking, he walked towards the chair behind and sat on the second chair from the left.

Everyone immediately understood that the chairs on the stage were reserved for consultants.

Then Tsunade read out the appointment of Shuan Xiaochun, and she took the letter of appointment and sat on the second chair on the right.

Obviously, the chair between the two senior consultants was reserved for Hokage, and the remaining two chairs were naturally provided for the new consultants.

Everyone speculated on whose head the remaining two consultants would fall.

There are smart people who have already guessed the result.

"Master Lujiu dismissed the position of the squad leader of the ninja class, he must have been promoted, and he must have a seat as an advisor," someone whispered to the people around him.

Someone on the other side also said: "I remember that there were three consultants, one of whom temporarily left the job due to health reasons, maybe it is not certain that he has recovered now."

"You are talking about Lord Danzo, how many years has it been? It's hard to say whether the Lord built it here or not"

"Shh, I've met that lord before. Don't talk nonsense, or he will hear you. You're the best."

"Hiss, you didn't say it earlier, that lord seems to be a very scary person"

"That is, it is said that the reason for his resignation was related to the extermination of the Uchiha clan."

"Really? By the way, it seems that the ninja who fought side by side with the third generation last time is from the Uchiha clan."

"That's right, that's one of the two Uchiha orphans, only 13 years old this year"

"Wow, that's awesome!"

……

Danzo, who was sitting quietly in the front row, moved his ears slightly, and some gossip inevitably fell into his ears, but he was so deep in the city that he seemed to know nothing about these discussions.

However, the resentment in my heart still couldn't help rising: "One day, the old man will sit in the middle and let you understand who is the real Hokage."
