Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow
Chapter 271: Chasing Reputation
"First of all, I want everyone to help me witness this. Because I took over the position of clan leader too early and I am still very young, I decided to let my sister Hanabi temporarily become the heir of the main family before I have offspring." Hyuga Hinata spoke first.
After hearing what Hyuga Hinata said, the crowd did not speak, after all, strictly speaking, this is a family affair of the Hyuga clan.
As for why Hyuga Hinata brought it here, it was mainly because she didn't want the branch family to make a fuss because of this matter.
"Then the second thing, I believe everyone already knows that yesterday morning, the former member of the elders, former advisor Shimura Danzo, attacked the two advisors, Utane and Mitomon, because of the recommendation of the successor to the Hokage, and died with them.
We have no right to ask about this matter itself. After all, no matter the specific situation and how to deal with it in the future, it will have to wait for the fifth Hokage to succeed and decide. What I want to say is that because of the sudden death of several advisors, we will face the power chaos problem within Konoha.
Because none of us knows when Senior Jiraiya will be able to bring back Senior Tsunade, in order to avoid the adverse effects of the power vacuum period on the village, I propose to form a new Konoha Elders Group to temporarily take over the handling of Konoha's internal and external affairs before the fifth Hokage takes over."
After listening to Hyuga Hinata's words, many people present showed surprise in their eyes, and then many people looked at one person.
"Chief Hinata, I have a few questions. I wonder if you can answer them?" After a moment of silence, Nara Shikaku stood up and asked helplessly.
In fact, he himself was unwilling to be the first to speak out, but it was helpless that Hinata Hyuga's proposal directly involved the rights of the Hokage. As a die-hard Hokage, Ino Shikacho had to ask.
After all, when everyone's eyes were fixed on him, Nara Shikaku couldn't help but be the first to speak out.
"Chief Shikaku, you can ask any questions. If I can't answer them, we can still brainstorm, right?" Hinata Hyuga replied with a faint smile.
"Chief Hinata, then forgive me for being rude. The first question I want to ask is, is the nature of the Konoha Elders' Council temporary or long-term?" Nara Shikaku asked Hinata Hyuga.
"Long-term!" Hinata Hyuga answered almost without any consideration.
Nara Shikaku had almost no expression after hearing this answer, as if Hinata Hyuga's answer was not unexpected by him.
However, it is estimated that only Nara Shikaku's expression did not change. As for the others, they all had more or less surprised and shocked micro-expressions.
"All clan leaders, you have all personally experienced the Third Hokage's rule, so it is not difficult to understand the heavy damage that the minority's rule has brought to Konoha, so we must never repeat the same mistakes again." Hyuga Hinata fired without any concealment.
After hearing Hyuga Hinata's words, many people raised their eyebrows.
After all, most people did not expect that the young clan leader who took over the Hyuga clan today would use such sharp words to criticize the late Third Hokage.
But no one said a word.
There was neither agreement nor opposition.
Seeing this scene, Yuhi Hong, who was sitting next to Kakashi, couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and at the same time, she also directly saw that many ninjas in Konoha were dissatisfied with the late Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After all, Hyuga Hinata was already accusing Sarutobi Hiruzen, who believed that death was the greatest thing, in front of the whole village.
But no one spoke up to object.
If the dissatisfaction and resentment in their hearts had not accumulated to a certain extent, someone would stand up to protect Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation after his death for the sake of his sacrifice for the village.
After all, as a fellow villager, no matter how powerful his disciple is, he can't be so intimidating that no one dares to speak.
Otherwise, Nara Shikaku wouldn't ask questions, but just say whatever Hinata Hyuga said.
Of course, there are also people who want to speak, such as Might Guy.
But he opened his mouth and said nothing.
One reason is that his disciple Rock Lehi needs Hinata Hyuga to treat him, and the other is that he also knows that the Third Hokage promoted him to a jonin, which is not entirely due to his own efforts.
Because if he really relies on his own efforts, then his father Might Guy should be able to become a jonin, instead of being a ten thousand year genin when he died.
In fact, it was because in the Third War, a ten-thousand-year-old Genin used the Eight Gates to destroy the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist Village, which was composed of all elite jonins and was proud of, that Might Guy was given such attention.
In short, Sarutobi Hiruzen regarded Might Guy as a trump card to be sacrificed at a critical moment, so he gave him the treatment of an elite jonin.
After all, before the Eight Gates of Might's wear exploded, Might Guy almost failed to enter the ninja school, and the father and son almost became ten-thousand-year-old Genin in Konoha for a lifetime.
It seems that I really need to keep a distance from Asuma.
But Yuhi Kurenai's analysis is not quite right. Hyuga Hinata actually shocked everyone to the point that they dared not speak.
Although people in Konoha did not have much sense of reality about Hyuga Hinata's dominance in the Hidden Mist Village, as a Konoha person, anyone who knows Shimura Danzo knows how difficult it is to kill this old silver coin.
In these people's minds, assassinating Sarutobi Hiruzen would probably be easier than assassinating Shimura Danzo, and the former is the Hokage.
Since the establishment of the Root, Shimura Danzo has offended so many people, not to mention those outside the village, even those inside the village who want to kill him are countless.
And Shimura Danzo has been constantly making trouble and accumulating hatred in this situation and lived until Hinata Hyuga took action. It can be imagined that his ability to save his life is really strong.
But such a person, contrary to his usual behavior, went to take away Koharu Utatane and En Mitomon in a one-on-two fight. Anyone with a brain that is not broken knows that it is unreasonable.
So the only reasonable truth is that Shimura Danzo was tricked by Hinata Hyuga and was controlled by her in some way, and then what happened yesterday happened.
Shimura Danzo, who made countless people in Konoha hate and feel helpless, died so easily, which shocked Konoha, which was no less than Hinata Hyuga killing through the Hidden Mist Village.
It is precisely because of this that after Shimura Danzo died, no one dared to inquire about the Root base.
Fearing that he might offend Hinata Hyuga because of inappropriate behavior, he would live in fear in the future.
After all, Hinata Hyuga is really strong. You have to know that she is Danzo Shimura, who is from the deep roots and is under layers of protection.
So no matter whether Hinata Hyuga criticized the dead Sarutobi Hiruzen or reached out for the power of the Hokage, the people present were silent at most, and no one dared to stand up and say anything.
As for Nara Shikaku, it was just Hinata Hyuga who gave him the opportunity to speak. "Chief Hinata, if the Elders want to exist for a long time, they need to shoulder certain functions and responsibilities. I wonder what you think about this?" Nara Shikaku thought about it and asked again.
As for what Hinata Hyuga said, it seemed as if he had never heard it at all.
"Everyone, from my observation, all the affairs of the village, big or small, have always been handled by the Hokage. This not only overworks the Hokage, but also over-concentrates power in one person's hands.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. If it is during a war, I don't object to the concentration of power in one person. After all, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and there is no way for us to have enough time to discuss.
But in peacetime, our Hyuga clan is very opposed to this kind of dictatorial rule, because once the ruler deviates, it will cause the whole village to fall into trouble. That's why I proposed to form a leader. The elders will share the authority of handling some non-war affairs for the Hokage.
Ladies and gentlemen, since the first Hokage established Konoha, it has always adhered to the concept of family rule, so the Senju clan gave up their surnames and completely integrated into the entire Konoha. So Konoha is everyone's Konoha, not someone's or a few families' Konoha.
Because of this, each of our ninja clans should introduce a suitable person to join the elders group, so as to implement the concept of the first Hokage and let everyone work together to govern our own Konoha. "
Hyuga Hinata just finished speaking, and the people who heard this couldn't help but take a breath.
Because they didn't expect Hyuga Hinata to start from the concept of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama.
As the founder of Konoha, Senju Hashirama's concept is actually equivalent to the will of fire.
In fact, there was no problem with Sarutobi Hiruzen's will of fire before, but Sarutobi Hiruzen's explanation was good, but it was reversed in execution.
Now Hinata Hyuga's understanding is also fine, but her understanding is not as empty as Sarutobi Hiruzen's, but is actually creating benefits.
After all, if the Konoha Elders' Council is really established and has the corresponding rights, the status of the participating families will be improved, because this has already involved the ruling power of the village.
"Chief Hinata, how do you ensure that the Elders' Council can exist for a long time?" A patriarch of a small family stood up and looked at Hinata Hyuga and asked.
"This senior wants to ask me how to ensure that the Elders' Council will not be abolished after the fifth generation takes over. Then I tell you, I will personally communicate with Senior Tsunade and tell Senior Tsunade what changes the village has experienced in the years since she left the village, and what kind of demands there are internally. Is this enough?" Hinata Hyuga asked the patriarch.
"I have no problem." The young patriarch nodded and sat down.
After all, the boss has said that he will personally go to the battlefield to charge, and he is only asked to wave the flag and shout. If he doesn't dare, then there will be no place for their clan in the elders' group.
"So, everyone, do you have any other questions?" Hyuga Hinata continued to ask.
"Chief Hinata, how should the responsibilities of the elders' group be divided specifically?" Another person couldn't help but ask.
"Everyone, the existence of the Elders is mainly to assist the Hokage. After all, we cannot let the things that happened during Sarutobi Hiruzen's reign happen again. Now that I think about it, I feel that the Will of Fire proposed by Sarutobi Hiruzen has tarnished the ideas of the first generation.
After all, what he said is completely contrary to what he did. Look at the shitty things he did, whether it was letting Danzo force Konoha White Fang to death, or asking for peace with the Hidden Cloud Village when he won, it was simply perverse.
The most outrageous thing here is that he even shamelessly modified the textbooks of the Ninja School. He dared to call himself the strongest Hokage in history. What virtue and ability does he have? The first generation is the god of ninjas who evaluated the Warring States Rebellion. Who can compare with him?
It really wasted the survival opportunity that the second generation fought for them with his own life. Now it seems that he was forced to be decent by Orochimaru with the first and second generations, which can be regarded as karma."
After Hinata Hyuga finished speaking, no one dared to answer.
After all, the clan leaders and elite jonin present were not as unscrupulous as Hinata Hyuga.
But many people were looking at Hinata Hyuga at this moment, and thinking about the significance of Hinata Hyuga's repeated attacks on Sarutobi Hiruzen, a dead man.
After all, no one would think that a thousand-year-old family like the Hyuga would cultivate an heir who liked to ruin the reputation of a dead person.
If the previous one can be regarded as the Hyuga clan venting its anger, then the second time will definitely not be because of venting its dissatisfaction.
The Hyuga clan is not narrow-minded enough to pursue a dead person in reputation.
So is this to position Sarutobi Hiruzen as a person who endangers Konoha, so as to facilitate the suppression of the Sarutobi clan?
That's right, the reason why Hinata Hyuga said these words was actually to start the prelude to suppress the Sarutobi clan.
After all, among the four major families, the Sarutobi family is the most well-fed, so if you want to fight, you should fight the largest one first.
As long as the Sarutobi family is suppressed, the remaining three families can be dealt with one by one.
And if you want to suppress the Sarutobi family, you must first characterize the political achievements of Sarutobi Hiruzen during his reign.
In fact, no matter the merits or demerits, it actually has little impact on a dead person, which is the meaning of the dead being the greatest.
From this point of view, it does make the Hyuga family look petty.
So Hyuga Hinata will put the breakthrough point on modifying the teaching plan of the ninja school.
Who asked Sarutobi Hiruzen to do this, which is equivalent to humiliating Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama.
As long as you grasp this point, even if Tsunade succeeds, you can't let this matter go lightly because Sarutobi Hiruzen is your teacher.
After all, the extermination of the Uchiha clan can be said to be related to his own death, but Senju voluntarily gave up his surname.
He was so great, but he was humiliated by his descendants. Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen died, it would be enough to ruin his reputation.
After all, the ninja school is the place where the future of Konoha is cultivated. Distorting the truth of history, tampering with textbooks and misleading generations of seedlings means betrayal to the Senju clan.
So once it is clearly stated, even Tsunade will never pretend that this has never happened. Who says she is the princess of the Senju clan?
"Chief Hinata, you should talk about the division of power." After a while of silence in the venue, the person who spoke first said with a stiff upper lip.
