Unlimited Naruto

The land of the Hyuga clan.

"What, you think what Minato did was not fair enough?" Shin asked looking at Sarutobi Ryuji who was kneeling there.

"Minato has never done anything like this before. Your Majesty has entrusted him with such an important task. It is normal that he is not competent." Sarutobi Ryuji's words were still quite tactful.

I couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Didn't you all support Minato to become Hokage before? Why are you picking him now?"

Sarutobi Ryuji lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, at this moment and that moment, before knowing the oracle, Minato was indeed the best candidate for Hokage, but it was different after the oracle appeared, and what your Majesty did has gone beyond a forbearance. In the scope of a village, there is nothing that the Hokage can do well."

"You think Minato is not being fair because you think you, the Sarutobi clan, are not divided enough?" Shin said directly.

"Your Majesty, the situation of each family is different. It is only right to reward based on merit. Some families' contributions to the village are not as good as others. If what they get in the end is the same as others, it will be hard to believe. ." Sarutobi Ryuji said it clearly.

Zhen nodded lightly and said, "What you said makes sense."

After hearing this, Sarutobi Ryūji immediately became energetic and continued: "I know that Your Majesty is caring for us and has specially given this gift. However, His Majesty's favor should also be based on people. Those who have contributed more should be treated the same." Thank you for your love and affection, which makes His Majesty appear just and kind."

Zhen said with emotion: "What you said makes sense, but I have already said before that Minato will be solely responsible for this matter. I will not refute any decision he makes."

Sarutobi Ryuji said urgently: "Your Majesty, your subordinates have done something wrong, how can you just sit back and ignore it?!"

Zhen showed a thoughtful expression and said, "I think since you have differences, you should communicate more. Tell Minato all your thoughts and opinions. I believe Minato will take care of all of you."

"Your Majesty!" Sarutobi Ryuji's voice suddenly became louder.

"Minato stays with Uchiha Fugaku all day long. No one knows what they are talking about and plotting. How can we be convinced that his decision-making is fair?"

Zhen was immediately displeased and said, "What do you mean, they are not allowed to have personal relationships?"

"I..." This sentence immediately silenced Sarutobi Ryuji.

"Don't say any more. This is something that benefits the country and the people. Don't waste my gift to you. After you go back, discuss it with Minato Haosheng and come up with the decision as soon as possible." Zhen Zhen said.

Sarutobi Ryuji lowered his head, his face not very pretty.

"yes."

"Ryuji, you and Minato have a close friendship. Don't you know what he is like? How can friends be so suspicious? Just believe him." Shin then persuaded him earnestly.

"Your Majesty is right." Sarutobi Ryuji could only respond. Just when he thought the matter would just go away, he heard the man in the seat speak again.

"If Minato really did something that caused public outrage, come back to me then, and I will give you a fair result."

Minato informed Jiraiya about the trouble he was currently in.

Jiraiya also looked troubled: "I told you this was a troublesome thing."

Minato frowned and said, "They are all greedy and want the best. No matter what decision I make, I cannot satisfy everyone."

Jiraiya thought: "That's what you say, but it would be unwise for you to divide everything equally. How could a big family be willing to end up with the same thing as a small family?"

Minato breathed a long sigh of relief: "A profit-seeking person."

Jiraiya was thinking about it, but he didn't have a better idea. Finally he could only say: "Minato, I can't help you with this matter."

"Yes." Minato responded calmly. He also knew that his teacher was not good at this kind of thing and would not make things difficult for him.

It would be nice if Shikaku was still here, Shikaku must have an idea...

Minato lowered his eyes and thought.

Jiraiya then said: "You might as well find someone, she will definitely be able to give you a good solution."

Minato looked confused.

Jiraiya shrugged and said, "My master's wife."

The Sarutobi clan is not like a large clan like Hinata that lives together and accepts the unified jurisdiction of the clan leader. Instead, it is like the Uchiha clan that is scattered into many small households. They do not have a fixed clan area and the clansmen are scattered. All over the village.

Minato came to the former residence of the Sandaime Hokage, but he didn't want to be turned away.

Standing behind the door was a young man.

"Tomorrow?" Minato asked.

"Go back, my mother won't see you." Sarutobi said tomorrow.

Minato was confused, thinking about what this meant.

Sarutobi Tomorrow said again at this time: "My mother said that you shouldn't come to her at this time. She only cares for you if she doesn't see you."

"...I understand." Minato took a deep breath and said.

"Excuse me, say hello to her for me."

On the way back, Minato felt that his thoughts were in a mess.

He couldn't think of a good coping strategy at all. The heads of these families were all approachable when they got along with each other in the past, but now once their interests were involved, they all showed faces that disgusted him.

He also understood why Sarutobi Lake Biwa didn't see him. Once he stayed at Lake Biwa for a while, something like Fugaku might happen again when he went out.

Perhaps from the beginning, when he took over this position, he should have temporarily severed personal relations with the heads of these families.

But it's too late to figure this out now.

Minato was dealing with this kind of government affairs for the first time, and he only felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Things like the human heart are far more troublesome than those powerful opponents on the battlefield, and Minato has no way to deal with it.

Minato suddenly caught a glimpse of an acquaintance on the street, Aburame Shiguro.

The other party also saw him, and after being stunned for a moment, he looked away, pretending not to see him.

Minato also resisted the urge to say hello.

Then not long after, Aburame Shiguro suddenly walked towards him again and stopped in front of him.

"Minato."

Most of the Aburame clan were stern, so he spoke in a calm tone.

"Zhihei."

"coincidence."

"……Um."

"There's an izakaya next door, do you want to sit down with us?"

"..."

Minato looked at the other person and was silent for a while, but did not refuse.

At this moment, he wanted to confirm something more.

The two entered an izakaya and found a slightly quieter place to sit opposite each other.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?" Minato asked proactively.

Aburame Shiguro hesitated for a while: "About the division of the Aburame clan into us..."

Minato's eyes darkened when he heard this.

He interrupted the other party: "Zhihei, I said I won't take sides in this matter. Do you believe me?"

Aburame Shiguro didn't answer his words.

Minato became increasingly weak, and he lost interest in sitting down anymore and planned to get up and leave.

"You can make conditions." Aburame Shiguro suddenly said.

Minato was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

"Minato, you can put forward some conditions." Aburame Shiguro's voice was calm.

"If Uchiha can be satisfied, so can we."
