Chapter 172 You are more suitable to be Hokage than me! Tsunade's magnanimity!
The Hokage Rock emits a dazzling afterglow under the setting sun.
As the footsteps were heard, Tsunade and Uchiha Ya stood on the top of Konoha, and the scenery of the entire Konoha was reflected in their eyes.
"Sister Tsunade, the Medical Department is already on the right track. If you take over the Intelligence Department afterwards, in order to avoid unnecessary turmoil during the war, you can use our people to open up new intelligence lines...
The original intelligence line only needs to be assigned some deputy positions and leisurely positions, so that Sister Tsunade can quickly take control of the Intelligence Department and at the same time minimize the turmoil in the Intelligence Department."
As Uchiha Ye's calm voice echoed, Tsunade's long golden hair shone brightly in the afterglow of the setting sun.
At this time, Tsunade showed a relaxed smile.
"You are really skilled in government affairs. It seems that you are more suitable to be the Hokage than me."
After these words suddenly came out, Uchiha Ye, who was working hard at the side, was stunned.
No, your train of thought is a bit jumpy, aren't you talking about Naruto now?
What we discussed is how to take over the Intelligence Department as quickly as possible.
However, after Tsunade saw Uchiha Ye's dazed look, she smiled with relief, and her bright brown pupils stared at him straight.
"Ye, I'm serious! You are more suitable to be Hokage than me, or even anyone else!"
Looking at Uchiha Ye's puzzled expression, he seemed a little confused.
Tsunade smiled and shook her head, looked at the village in the sunset, stretched lazily, squinted her eyes and enjoyed the evening breeze of Konoha.
"Ye, do you know who I thought of when I saw the Third Hokage just now?"
At this moment Uchiha Ye was speechless, his brain really couldn't react.
"No, Tsunade-san? There's something wrong with you!"
Uchiha Ye was stunned. He really couldn't keep up with Tsunade's thoughts. However, Tsunade's next sentence made him seem to understand something.
"Sansho Fish Hanzo!"
When Tsunade said the name, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn look.
"A legendary ninja who was called a demigod by the ninja world in the first half of his life. He was so respected that he almost pushed the Rain Village to the status of the six major ninja villages. However, after the defeat in World War II, Hanzo gradually lost himself and deviated from his original beliefs."
The Rain Village after World War II and the various behaviors of this demigod really shocked countless people, and even countless voices of dissatisfaction were heard within the Rain Village.
The legend of the demigod was like a dazzling meteor that streaked across the ninja world, and then dimmed.
At this point, Tsunade looked even more heavy-hearted.
"The look in the Sandaime's eyes during the jonin meeting just now frightened me! Because the last time I saw such a look was in the eyes of the Salamander Hanzo!"
Looking at Tsunade's heavy expression, Uchiha Ye's brain kept working and he also looked solemn.
"Sister Tsunade, are you saying that the current Third Hokage is just like Hanzo back then, obsessed with the glory of the past and unable to extricate himself?"
"That's right! The pressure from public opinion this time is too great. What I saw was a Hokage who was immersed in the past, stubbornly trying to turn the tide and prove himself again, returning to the past with a halo!"
"He wants to prove that he is still the ninja hero that everyone admires, the third generation who led Konoha to its glorious peak! Just like Hanzo back then, they are both walking on a tightrope on a cliff, and if they are not careful, they will be crushed to pieces!"
As the solemn voice of Senju Tsunade echoed, Uchiha Ye pondered for a moment, and then sighed:
"This is the greed of human nature. People can never be satisfied."
He suddenly realized something after hearing Tsunade's words, and couldn't help but look at Tsunade with an expression of surprise and admiration.
He is worthy of being the outliner. Who says women with big breasts are stupid?
He clearly has the world in his mind, and in just a few moments he tells the story of Sarutobi Hiruzen's life. It is not just Hanzo and the Third Hokage. There are too many legendary figures in history who were wise and brave when they were young, but became conceited, suspicious, and made frequent stupid moves when they got old.
Especially after they found out they were wrong, they were eager to prove themselves and stubbornly wanted to regain the glory they had lost at all costs, but in the end they went further and further away.
"No!"
Regarding what Uchiha Ye believed was human greed, this time Tsunade directly denied it, and her pair of bright brown pupils stared at him straightly. At this moment, her eyes were unusually firm.
“It’s a lack of will!”
Uchiha Ye was stunned, no! My great Tsunade, what you said is too philosophical and profound.
Looking at Uchiha Ye's confused look, Tsunade smiled.
"So-called will is belief. For example, my grandfather's first will of fire was to end the Warring States and build a village where children can grow up in peace. What about the third Hokage's belief?"
When she said this, Tsunade in the sunset exuded a charm that seemed to be a result of a sudden enlightenment.
"The Third Generation's Will of Fire is too empty and lacks the backbone of faith."
Confused, Uchiha Ye looked at Tsunade in astonishment. It seemed that Tsunade had suddenly grown up after returning this time, and had grown to a height that was a little unfamiliar to him.
However, the trust in that charming smile and eyes remained unchanged.
"Sister Tsunade, what do you mean by this?"
It seemed that he had guessed something vaguely, but Uchiha Ye was still a little stunned. The change was too fast. This was the world of ninja, why did he feel a sense of mystery of sudden enlightenment?
In the setting sun, Tsunade exudes a charming smile.
"Ye, your Will of Fire is full of firm belief. Just like my grandfather, your Will of Fire has direction and purpose."
When she said this, Tsunade smiled and took out a red-covered book called "My Struggle" from her arms.
"My grandfather firmly believed that he wanted to build a village where children could grow up safely and peacefully. He did it during his lifetime. In the same way, I saw in this book a person who was confused at the beginning and constantly searching for...
Until now, I have seen the determination in your eyes. The real peace in your belief is that there is only one village in the Ninja World. Don't deny it! The idea in your book clearly reveals that if there was only one Konoha in the Ninja World, would there be peace? "
Seeing Uchiha Ye wanted to explain something, Tsunade shook her head and interrupted him.
"What is the will of the village now? They just shout slogans, but how can they protect the village? These are all empty words. They only see that the wealthy families are affecting the development of the village...
What we see is that there are talented ninjas in other villages, and we must suppress them in advance, but there is no clear will and direction, and it is all chaos, taking one step at a time."
At this time, Tsunade shook her head in self-mockery:
"Even me, you asked me to be the Hokage, but I have an empty will in my heart. How can the village develop? Where is the future direction? This will only lead to a cycle of constant war, cultivation, and then war again, endlessly..."
"And Ye, your thoughts and will may be extreme, but it is much better than having no direction. At least we have to verify it. Who dares to say that your will is wrong? Even my grandfather thought he was right at the beginning, but what was the result?"
At this time, Tsunade looked at Uchiha Ye firmly under the setting sun. "Right or wrong! You can only know it by doing it, and doing nothing! Standing still forever is to keep making mistakes. My grandfather was right when he was alive, but after he died, he lost this power and the war started again.
Prove him wrong again, so you are more suitable to be Hokage than me! Even more suitable than anyone else!"
In the setting sun, as the firm voice echoed, looking at Tsunade's charming and determined face, Uchiha Ye was stunned for a moment.
When did he become so awesome? He himself didn't even know it, and when did Tsuna suddenly become so philosophical?
"Sister Tsunade, the Fourth Hokage..."
Uchiha Ye said while waving his hands awkwardly, but Tsunade simply waved her hand to interrupt him.
"Ye! With the Senju here, you are the Fourth Hokage, and no one can stop you! Konoha cannot be corrupted by these old guys, and the tragedy of Rain Village cannot happen again!"
Tsunade was extremely determined at this moment. She would not have dared to think so in the past. After all, Uchiha's Sharingan was really extreme.
But since she discovered the secrets of Senju and Uchiha, her three views were directly overturned.
The Uchiha are extreme, and so are the Senju. Since they are both extreme, who dares to say that the first Hokage was wrong about his great achievements?
Now think about the firm belief of my grandfather, the first generation. Isn’t it also in line with the extremism of the Uchiha?
Is it this kind of extremism that makes one’s beliefs so unshakable?
A person who can be radical enough to be firm in his beliefs from beginning to end will not end up like Hanzo and the Third Hokage who got lost in the later period.
Therefore, the more extreme Uchiha Ye is, the better, because this way he can carry out his beliefs from beginning to end.
Even Tsunade firmly believed that Uchiha Ya was more suitable to be Hokage than her.
"Sister Tsunade!"
At this moment, Uchiha Ye was in a daze, and was greeted by Tsunade who stood on tiptoe in the sunset and kissed his forehead. At the same time, holding the necklace in front of his chest, Tsunade smiled.
"I'm behind you, as are the Senju clan! Ye, let the entire ninja world burn with your will of fire!"
My goodness, this feels a bit weird, this seems to be his words, right? How come it’s the other way around now, and it’s Tsunade who is PUAing him.
Tsunade's vision and magnanimity have reached the level of the entire ninja world. What she sees is that she, like the Third Hokage, is an empty will of fire.
For the village? How can we do it? These thoughts are too empty.
That's why Tsunade was afraid. She was afraid that one day she would become like the Third Hokage and Hanzo without direction, so she chose Uchiha Ya, a will of fire who had the same firm direction as her grandfather.
The life of the first Hokage proved one thing: as long as the fist is big, even if my direction is wrong, I can shape the ninja world into my own shape with the powerful force.
It is always better to have a direction than to be blind and without direction. At least his powerful strength also proves that he was right during his lifetime.
As for after death?
In Tsunade's eyes, she has already accepted a concept in her heart that as long as they are strong enough, they can suppress their mistakes for a lifetime, so this mistake is right while they are alive.
Although it can only be called half right, it is better than no change at all.
……
When the Third Ninja World War broke out, Konoha responded quickly.
They immediately set up effective defensive positions on the border and even became wary of other countries.
After the Konoha Jonin Conference ended, Konoha announced to the public that it would never admit that the disappearance of the Third Kazekage had anything to do with them.
He also denied the rampage of the tailed beast in the Hidden Cloud Village, the conflict between black and white, and even turned around and said that the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Sand Village had evil ambitions and were greedy for the wealth of the Land of Fire.
Konoha even took strong counterattack measures, not only against Kumogakure and Sunagakure, but also openly took precautions against the other two major ninja villages.
Konoha, the strongest of the five ninja villages in the ninja world, adopted a tough attitude like a lion's roar. In a word, Konoha was not afraid of any external enemy.
When the information about Konoha's tough counterattack measures appeared on the desks of the major ninja villages, they all looked solemn.
Iwagakure Village.
"If we are not careful, the four major ninja villages will join forces. Konoha is still so confident!"
When Ohnoki saw the information from Konoha, he couldn't help but be shocked, and a deep fear appeared in the depths of his eyes.
"Third Tsuchikage-sama, should we go to war with Konoha?"
"Yes!"
Inside the Tsuchikage's office, two trusted middle-aged Iwagakure ninjas spoke in solemn voices. However, the experienced Ōnoki was frightened by Konoha's tough attitude this time, and became even more solemn.
"No! Take a look first!"
Ohnoki looked at the information solemnly, then shook his head fearfully and said:
"Let Sunagakure and Kumogakure test what cards Konoha has first. Sarutobi Hiruzen is so confident. We must not act rashly."
At this time, various threats from Konoha kept popping up in Ohnoki's mind.
"Has the Wood Release research been successful? Or is there an unknown powerful ninja hidden in Konoha? Or is it that Konoha has been hiding a powerful force over the years?"
Oonoki's face turned green as he kept guessing and worrying, and his mind was filled with alarms for all kinds of threats to Konoha.
While all the major ninja villages in the ninja world were infinitely overestimating Konoha, Konoha's impression of the major ninja villages was still superficial at the time of World War II.
During World War II, one of the five major ninja villages, the Sand Village, was easily defeated by them, and the Rain Village, which was known as the sixth largest ninja village, was even crushed by them. The other ninja villages didn't even have the confidence to start a war. If Konoha is not proud, who should be?
Especially in the past twenty years, the senior members of the Third Hokage's faction have been constantly whitewashing how strong Konoha was under their leadership, causing Konoha to be blinded by this glory and halo.
When all eyes of the ninja world were focused on Konoha.
Huge armies of Konoha's ninjas began to rush to the front lines. The war machines that could be operated by tens of thousands of ninjas in an instant undoubtedly shocked the entire ninja world.
This is the strength of Konoha, the leader of the five major ninja villages!
In addition to the mobilization of countless ninja armies, Konoha announced that two advisors, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, would represent Konoha to go to Sunagakure and Kumogakure for peace talks.
This combination of soft and hard tactics did not surprise most people.
However, Konoha had an elite ninja corps of about 500 people, who left Konoha under the cover of night.
Even Konoha's barrier and patrols didn't find any trace of such a large elite force, so silent.
Thanks to all the brothers for their support.
