Faxiang Tiandi ignored the various attacks from the soldiers and walked straight towards the three eldest princes.

The pace is steady and rhythmic, with a strong sense of pressure.

The soldiers retreated one after another in order not to be trampled to death.

Arriving in front of the eldest prince, Hiruzen looked down at the three of them and said, "Plotting rebellion is a crime that deserves to be punished."

The eldest prince and the two princes knelt down in panic.

"The general is so noble!"

"For the sake of me being Biwako...the daimyo's uncle, please let me go!"

However, Hiruzen still raised his left foot and stepped down on it.

The three rebel kings became minced meat.

"Let's all go away. Don't look at it. I only kill the first culprit."

The soldiers wanted to escape, but out of professionalism, they hesitated for a moment.

Upon seeing this, Hiruzen raised the arm of Hosō Tenchi.

These soldiers were immediately frightened and fled in all directions.

Hiruzen then lifted the law of heaven and earth and used the Flying Thunder God to instantly return to the city wall.

Kneeling on one knee, he saluted Lake Biwa and said, "Your Majesty, the enemy has retreated."

Lake Biwa lifted Hiruzen up, creating a scene of harmony between the king and his subjects.

The reputation of Lake Biwa also rose to its peak with this battle.

Under the protection of the guards, Biwako rode a carriage back to the palace with Hiruzen.

Sitting on the carriage, Hiruzen took off his armor.

"This thing is uncomfortable to wear."

Biwako smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "The things in your mouth are always different from others."

"The position of Daimyo is within easy reach for you."

"You also think the general's armor is a burden."

Hiruzen smiled and said: "Hahaha, that seems to be the case."

"Oh, this is not what I'm used to as a ninja."

Biwako stretched himself in the carriage and said, "Are you free? After I become a daimyo, freedom can only be a luxury for me."

Hiruzen was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Biwako raised his head and looked at Hiruzen. After sizing him up for a long time, he said, "How about you become the daimyo?"

Hiruzen looked at Lake Biwa in surprise, then shook his head.

"If I do this, I will be attacked by almost all countries."

"The daimyo system is deeply rooted in the ninja world. Except for small countries like Uzumaki, which are composed of ninjas, the daimyo family in each country has ruled their respective countries for hundreds of years."

"No one will allow this system to be broken."

"Konoha just went through a big battle and still needs to recover."

Lake Biwa also understood the reason, and then asked: "By the way, after you defeat the Three Kings rebels, what will happen to the remaining forces?"

Hiruzen said without thinking: "Unite a group, win over a group, and attack a group."

Then he explained: "Those nobles who have not participated in the rebellion at all are the ones who can be united. They only recognize the position of daimyo and do not care who sits in the position."

"Those who are swaying in the rebellion can be temporarily attracted, and it won't be too late to clean them up when you have full wings."

"As for the die-hard loyalists of the three kings, we will suppress them with all our strength and not let them have the slightest chance to show their faces."

Lake Biwa thought thoughtfully. For her, there were still many things to learn about becoming a daimyo.

Hiruzen said again: "By the way, I still have a few things I need you to help me with."

"The first is Konoha's financial assistance. The previous daimyo has been struggling with it. Go back and see how much surplus and unnecessary expenditure there is in the Fire Nation's finances, and all of them have been transferred to the construction of Konoha."

"Also, if we promote ninjas more, Konoha will also absorb a large number of Fire Country residents to become ninjas. Only when the number of ninjas increases can the era of ninjas truly come."

"I'll discuss the rest with you when I become Hokage."

Biwako took note of Hiruzen's words carefully, and then said: "I understand."

Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction.

The reason why Hiruzen went to so much trouble to change his name was to make the relationship between the Fire Country and Konoha closer.

This is beneficial to both parties.

And this is just a transition, the situation will change again in the future.

It's just that the time is not yet ripe.

Hiruzen and Biwako returned to Daming Mansion and explained the relevant matters to Biwako in detail.

Then he was ready to leave Daming Mansion.

"Hiruzen, do you still want to be a general?"

Lake Biwa asked.

Hiruzen turned around and said, "If you wish, I will always be."

Biwako lowered his head and murmured: "Goodbye then, my great general."

Hiruzen left the Daming Mansion and returned to Tuanzi.

"I'm sorry that I asked you to accompany me to Kyoto for so long just after we got married."

Hiruzen said guiltily.

Tuanzi shook his head and said, "I had a lot of fun in Kyoto."

"Nanoyu also enjoyed this trip."

"I see the troops have retreated outside the city. The matter should be over, right?"

Hiruzen nodded and said: "It's basically over. Konoha can cooperate with the Daming Mansion to complete the follow-up work."

"The Fire Nation has changed its dynasty."

Tuanzi sighed: "I lost all the great names of the previous generation on my honeymoon, but I really have you."

Hiruzen laughed and said, "Then I'm quite powerful."

"We have been in Kyoto for more than a month. It's time to return to Konoha."

Hiruzen said, taking Dango and Nonou's hands and embarking on the journey back to Konoha.

...........................

Konoha Hokage Building.

Tobirama said to Hiruzen with a serious face: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

"Do you know how much pressure all over the country and even other countries put on Konoha when you were in Kyoto?"

"You almost triggered the Second Ninja War, did you know that?"

Hiruzen lowered his head and remained silent.

He waited until Tobirama finished speaking before speaking: "Teacher Tobirama, it was my lack of consideration."

Hiruzen's attitude towards admitting his mistakes was very positive.

Because the matter is over anyway, Lake Biwa is now sitting safely in the Daimyo position with the support of Hiruzen and Konoha.

This is already an unchangeable fact.

Tobirama looked at Hiruzen and sighed deeply.

"Monkey, you have grown up and have your own ideas."

"I know your purpose is for Konoha, but I hope you can understand that some things are not so easy to achieve."

"Okay, that's it for now."

"You go back and reflect on it."

Hiruzen nodded in agreement, then turned around to leave.

"and many more."

Tobirama raised his hand to stop him and said.

"Monkey, I'm ready to take a back seat, and I'm ready to let you take over this position."

"What do you think?"

Hiruzen turned around and came to Tobirama and said, "Teacher, the position of Hokage is my dream, and I am very happy to be it."

"But I plan to concentrate on training this year. Let's talk about the Hokage thing next year."

Tobirama nodded and said, "Cultivation is indeed a big deal."

"Okay, then I'll survive for another year."

Hiruzen couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Teacher, you are only in your 40s and in your prime. Why are you thinking about retiring?"

Tobirama said confidently: "I would rather be the principal of the ninja school than being the Hokage."

"Cultivate more newcomers to Konoha."
