Konoha: The New Will of Fire

The ceremony for Minato to succeed Hokage was not too grand and was completed in one morning.

But compared with when Kakashi succeeded the Sixth Hokage, the God's robes were all patched, and Naruto even missed his own succession ceremony. These are simply much better.

Xue Ji asked in a low voice: "There is news I just got. Do you want to hear it?"

"Tell me".

Qian Qiao asked with great interest. It was definitely not simple for Xue Ji to bring it up.

Xue Ji looked around, took half a step back and fell behind Qian Qiao, and lowered her voice and said: "Although the Third Generation has resigned from the position of Hokage, he still retains the direct ANBU."

Hearing the news, Qian Qiao was stunned for a moment, and there was only one sentence in his mind.

"Sandai don't want to be old-fashioned anymore?"

What is Anbu?

The full name is the Assassination Tactics Special Forces. It was established by the Second Hokage. Its leadership belongs to the Hokage and is directly commanded by the Hokage. This is the power of the Hokage alone.

He is not responsible to any organization, he is only directly responsible to the Hokage, and has the right to act expediently.

Just like the Jin Yiwei of the Ming Dynasty in the previous life, they belonged to the violent organization of the Hokage. The second generation of the Hokage established the ANBU in order to collect the outstanding geniuses in the village and bring them under the direct rule of the Hokage, enhance the power of the Hokage and reduce the power of the family.

To a certain extent, Anbu are representatives of Hokage's authority, and their appearance represents Hokage's will.

All in all, ANBU is a violent institution that only the Hokage can possess.

And the third generation clearly resigned from the Hokage, he was no longer the Hokage, but he still shamelessly remained directly under the ANBU.

The third generation's behavior is already breaking the rules. He is no longer the Hokage, and he is still exercising the rights of the Hokage. Does Konoha need two Hokages to rule?

This matter is not only bad. ANBU is a violent organization with powerful power. Therefore, the number of ANBU is fixed, with an establishment of 70 people.

Now the third generation remains directly under the ANBU. In other words, these 70 people originally obeyed the orders of the fourth generation. Now the third generation takes some of them, so the fourth generation can only control part of the ANBU.

Qian Qiao suddenly remembered that in the original time and space, when Katsuyuki gave birth, the person responsible for guarding was not the fourth generation's own ANBU, but the third generation's ANBU.

No wonder, the atmosphere on the roof of the building is a bit delicate, and the clan leaders are worried.

Especially Fugaku, his face is not good-looking at all.

Everyone may be thinking, which Hokage should we listen to from now on?

After pondering for a moment, Qian Qiao asked in a low voice: "There must be a reason why I still remain directly under ANBU after I retire."

"The fourth Hokage has no experience in governing, and the third Hokage serves as an assistant to the Hokage."

The corners of Gan Qiao's mouth twitched slightly, this reason was really just a reason.

The newly appointed Hokage has no experience, and the previous Hokage was an assistant. This is reasonable, but since you are an assistant, why should you keep directly under the ANBU.

Looking at the fifth generation Hokage Tsunade and the sixth generation Hokage Kakashi, they retreated completely as soon as they retreated. Only the third generation retreated and still clung to the power.

Combined with the fact that the third-generation ANBU guard Kushina gave birth, Naga took his sister as Hokage for at least a year. The third-generation assistant still has direct ANBU, and the ANBU in his hands are more elite than those of the fourth generation.

Thought provoking.

Suddenly something occurred to him, and Qianqiao asked: "What about Danzo?"

When the third generation was Hokage, the position of Hokage Assistant belonged to Danzo.

"Danzo has just submitted his resignation, resigning from his position as Hokage's assistant, and gradually handing over his 'root' to the Fourth Hokage."

'Hard enough! '

Qian Qiao had to lament that the Third Generation's methods were worthy of being a man who had been the Hokage for decades, cutting off Danzo's meat to supply his sister forever.

Danzo had worked hard for more than ten years and had shouldered so many blames, but was just packed away by the Third Generation. His position as Hokage Assistant was gone, and his roots were gone.

Danzo must have fainted in the toilet from crying right now. No wonder Danzo didn't come to attend the succession ceremony.

However, Danzo and the Third were dog-eat-dog at best, and there was nothing to sympathize with.

……

The succession ceremony was completed by noon, and Qian Qiao also pulled Zhisui and Xue Ji forward together to say congratulations and the like.

I thought there was nothing to do with him, but who would have thought that Minato suddenly stopped him and said that he would discuss something with him later.

This made Qian Qiao stunned, first Kushina, then Minato, what kind of trouble are these two couples going to have.

Xue Ji's big black pearl-like eyes stared at Qian Qiao and asked: "Hey, are you hiding something from us?"

"No, I swear to God."

Qian Qiao raised four thumbs and said: "I am also very confused now."

Seeing that Xue Ji still wanted to ask, Qian Qiao changed the subject and asked: "Zhisui, I think your clan leader's face doesn't look good."

"Yeah", Zhisui responded and whispered: "It should be related to what Senior Xue Ji said."

Qianqiao nodded with all his thoughts in mind. Among the many families in Konoha, the most supportive was undoubtedly the Uchiha clan. Uchiha Mikoto and Kushina seemed to be close friends.

However, now that the Third Generation has acted like this, Fugaku may be under great pressure, and the radical faction of the Uchiha clan may have to emerge again.

Really are.

Uchiha Fugaku is a person who is hesitant and not decisive at all.

If someone gives in, they will only be faced with constant oppression. By the time it becomes unbearable, they will be fully prepared.

If he were the clan leader, he would not rely on the so-called changes in the attitude of the top management. Qianqiao only believed in himself. He must prepare now to increase the importance of the Uchiha clan and let the top management take action. At the same time, prepare a way out, even in the worst case scenario. It also ensures the continuation of the family.

The so-called seed plan!

By the time Minato finished his work, it was already afternoon, and Ganqiao finally saw Minato in the evening.

The familiar Hokage's office, familiar furnishings, and the blood-red setting sun shone in the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

There were several high stacks of documents on the desk. When Qian Qiao came in, Minato was looking for some document in the pile.

"Finally found!"

Minato held a document and let out a long breath.

The corners of Qian Qiao's mouth twitched slightly, naturally dumbfounded.

When Minato saw Qian Qiao, he smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm really sorry. I just started taking over and there are many things I'm not familiar with."

"Sidai, what do you want from me?" Gan Qiao asked in confusion.

Minato said, "I want you to become my direct ANBU."

"Anbu?"

Qianqiao was stunned. He had made some guesses, but he didn't expect Minato to come to him.

No wonder Kushina was so enthusiastic about him. It turned out to be like this. Qian Qiao suddenly realized that it seemed that this Hokage wife was not that easy to be.

Generally speaking, the first thing the Hokage does when he comes to power is to establish a direct ANBU. The No. 1 choice is of course the closest person in the family.

For example, in the third generation, the captain of his Anbu was served by his eldest son Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was Konohamaru's father, and his daughter-in-law was the deputy captain. Both of them were elite jounin.

But Minato was born as a civilian, and was a war orphan. He had no relatives, and the one he was closest to was naturally his wife Kushina. However, Kushina was the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, so it was naturally impossible for him to be an ANBU.

What Ling Qianqiao didn't expect was that Minato would find him.

After thinking about it carefully, it seems that his identity and background are indeed very suitable. He is a war orphan, a civilian, and a genius who became famous in the war. He is a suitable candidate in every aspect.

Seeing Qianqiao's hesitation, Sidai said in a hopeful tone: "This is not an order, but an invitation. I invite you to help me and become my right-hand man."
