Started as a Hokage

After several days, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally arrived at the Daming Mansion without any danger.

Along the way, the ninjas of the Root Organization were assassinating Sarutobi Hiruzen all the time.

If it weren't for the strong strength of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Hatake Kakashi, both of them were strong enough, it is impossible to say that many people would have died on this journey.

The reason why I brought Hatake Kakashi to Daming Mansion.

It was because Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Kakashi had become more and more depressed since the death of Namikaze Minato, and even had a negative attitude towards life.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't bear that such a good young talent like Kakashi would sink in Konoha, so he took him out to relax and soothe his body and mind.

Also, now that there is an ambitious man like Minamoto Shugi in Konoha, and putting such an unstable factor like Kakashi in Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not at ease.

It just so happened that he took advantage of this trip to bring Kakashi out with him, so as not to suffer the abuse of Gen Shuyi.

Sarutobi Hiruzen originally thought that the biggest obstacle to this trip would be Gen Shuyi.

Unexpectedly, the person who came most happily was the guy from Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was secretly scolding Danzo for being greedy and unable to see clearly.But he couldn't kill him just because someone from the Root Organization assassinated him, so he always showed mercy.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for these people from the root organization to follow him all the way to Daming Mansion and still be in peace.

Arriving at the Daming Mansion, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt relieved.

No matter how bold Danzo was, he would not dare to take action in the Daiming Mansion, otherwise it would not only be difficult for the Daimyo to explain, but even Sarutobi Hiruzen would not hold back because they were from Konoha.

Despite the fact that the Daimyo doesn't have a high presence in Naruto, and the people in Konoha seem to be very rude to the Daimyo, they think he is a mascot-like character.

In fact, in the Land of Fire, the Daimyo is the number one, the most noble one, and the Hokage is just one of the Daimyo's important ministers.

Although in the real world, it would be very surprising that the person who controls the lifeline of this world cannot become the master of the world.Just like when watching Black Panther, Wakanda's technological level is far beyond that of the earth, and it is so strange that it still lives in a corner and pretends to be backward elements.

But in the ninja world, the Daimyo of the Fire Country is the ruler of the Fire Country.

Because although ninjas are strong, ninjas are not engaged in production.

Ninja is essentially a branch of arms, a weapon, and a fighting tool.

Apart from fighting, ninjas' contribution to the country is almost zero.

And ninja is a profession that requires a lifetime of exploration and advancement, which is doomed to them that they know nothing except ninjutsu.

You ask ninjas to farm, isn't this a joke?

But ninjas are a very expensive unit. If they don't farm or hunt, they will starve to death.

At this time, the importance of a country can be reflected.

If you use a piece of land to raise ninjas, there is a high probability that both of them will die.

And using a country to raise ninjas is just a drop in the bucket.

So even though the ninjas of Konoha are so awesome in the world of Naruto, if they really don't have the support of the Fire Country Daimyo, then Konoha will not be far away from starving to death.

This is also the reason why Konoha's top management respects the daimyo so much, and even the succession of Hokage requires the approval of the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Because these people know who is the one who allows them to survive.

This is also the reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to secretly obtain the support of the daimyo. As long as he has the support of the daimyo, it means that he has official recognition and the support of his father, Konoha's largest financial financier.

With this kind of support, how could Yuan Shuyi's petty fuss be compared.

"Let's go find a hotel to rest first, and then visit the Daimyo in the afternoon." Sarutobi Hiruzen said to the silent Kakashi with his eyes narrowed, smoking a cigarette and lowering his head.

At this time, Kakashi was in a confused period of life and in the early stages of depression. At this time, he was a decadent young man.No words or actions could move his heart that was riddled with holes.

It's just that his mood didn't get better when he came out this time. He also felt aggrieved because of various assassinations on the way. After the assassinations, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't allow him to kill these ninjas.

Now Kakashi felt that his whole body was about to explode, and even the respected Sandai was a bit irritable when he spoke.

Seeing this disciple being so decadent, Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt a headache.

Then he thought about the second son in Daming Mansion who was even more troublesome. He felt that his old body could not bear it.

In the afternoon, Hiruzen Sarutobi submitted a letter to meet the Daimyo.

For some reason, the chamberlain who came this time looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in a particularly strange way. As a ninja, he was very sensitive to other people's malice.

The chamberlain didn't have any ill intentions towards him, but his eyes looked like he was gloating about his misfortune, which made him confused for a moment.

Arrive in front of the hall where the daimyo is to meet.

At this time, the daimyo was sitting behind a curtain, with two ninjas from the Uchiha family guarding him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned when he looked at these two Uchiha ninjas, and a bad premonition rose from the bottom of his heart.

Logically speaking, it is normal for a personal bodyguard like the Twelve Guardian Ninja to be around the Daimyo at this time.

But the Uchiha family is not the only one who protects the Twelve Shinobi, although the Uchiha family members bear the name of Konoha.

But Sarutobi Asuma is obviously more suitable to appear in the current scene.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a bad premonition, but he didn't say anything. He knelt down and talked to the daimyo in official language.

Until Hiruzen Sarutobi got to the point and handed over the paper that he wanted to be Hokage again.

Generally speaking, only those who become Hokage will come to the Daming Mansion to report on their duties, but it is really rare for Hiruzen Sarutobi to recommend himself to become Hokage again.

But considering that he is a former Hokage, this is not a big deal.

The daimyo took the fold and took a look at it. He placed the fold on the table and tapped it lightly.

After a while, the Daimyo's voice came from behind the curtain.

"Sir Sarutobi, it stands to reason that the Daimyo Prefecture will not be involved in Konoha's affairs. Even if you elect Hokage, we will not interfere with you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, this was an agreement reached long ago.

Konoha provides people and resources for the Fire Country, and the Fire Country provides information and food for Konoha, and the two sides do not interfere with each other.

"However, something has happened in the Land of Fire recently. Perhaps Sarutobi-dono hasn't heard about it yet. Sarutobi-dono can go and inquire about it later. As for the excerpt you wrote, I'm sorry, I really can't agree to it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head in astonishment and looked at the daimyo behind the curtain with a look of disbelief.

This, why?

According to his idea, since the two sides do not interfere with each other, coming here this time is just a formality. Just like before, they can make their own decisions.

In comparison, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally has the advantage. After all, he has dealt with the daimyo a lot, and the two parties have always maintained a good relationship.

This time the letter was not written so straightforwardly, saying that he would resume his duties as Hokage.

Instead, he temporarily assumed the position of acting Hokage, pending subsequent inspections to select the best talents to assume the position of Hokage.

Logically speaking, the face was given enough here, and Sarutobi Hiruzen really couldn't imagine why the daimyo would reject this proposal.

Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously looked up at the two Uchiha ninjas beside him, and saw that these two guys had already revealed a smile of gloating.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't figured out what was going on at this time, then his decades of Hokage career would really be just a stick.
