Konoha Teken Ning Invincible

Chapter 185-The Reason for Being Hokage

"It's so late, what's the matter?"

Neji looked at the time, it was almost early in the morning. At this time, Shizune came to the door, probably nothing good.

Shizune said, "Sorry to interrupt you to rest, but Tsunade-sama wants you to come over."

"……All right."

Tsunade is an older person, and now he doesn't sleep during his beauty sleep, there must be something urgent. Neji didn't ask much, and went to Tsunade Mansion with Shizune. At that time, Tsunade was wearing a coat and sitting at the entrance, looking a little unhappy.

When she saw Neji coming over, she directly named the topic: "The two consultants have returned from the Daming Mansion."

"Oh?"

"And I came back with a famous handwritten script." Tsunade threw a paper document, and Neji took it. After reading it, he also understood why Tsunade was upset.

In the document, the daimyo criticized Tsunade, saying that the current tension between the village and the hidden villages of other countries will affect the stability of the country, which is very bad. In addition to criticism, there are orders. She ordered her two consultants to re-establish the consultant's office and participate in the affairs of the village.

It is clearly stated in the document that Tsunade is to delegate power without any leeway.

Neji finished watching and said, "It seems that their lobbying was very successful this time."

Tsunade scratched his hair irritably: "What should I do now? Like I said before, let the villagers know about it publicly?"

"I think it's okay. Looking at the wording in this document, those two old things must have said a lot of bad things about you, and maybe even spread rumors. You don't need to be'righteous' if people are not kind."

For this document, Neji could not endorse.

But now he has not yet reached the time to "openly oppose the daimyo." Now if he does this, he will only push everyone against him.

Then, if you don't object openly, there is only one option left to violate the law.

"Master Tsunade, or you should rest first." Shizune said with concern, "It won't be too late to deal with this matter tomorrow. Your body is more important."

"No, it doesn't matter to me. Neji isn't he also asleep."

"..."

Shizune was very speechless. Please, how old is Neji? It's less than twenty, and it's nothing all night at this age. How old are you... can young people be better than staying up late...

If you think about it, you can't get a fist when you say it, Shizune still chooses to be silent wisely.

"Even if it's made public, the daimyo's order should be followed." Tsunade was very distressed, "What advisory office needs to be rebuilt!"

"Didn't the essay say that consultants should be involved in the affairs of the village? Then you can leave the work to them." Neji suggested, "Let them build the consultant's office by themselves and let them recruit people by themselves... We just need to stop his office from running."

The office is actually the most useless, in Neji's view.

If no one listens to you below, then it doesn't matter how you give orders in the office. If you want to sit firmly in the office, the premise is that there are people who are working hard for you outside.

Neji felt that instead of targeting the consultant, it was better to target the people under him. If they can't do anything, the consultant will naturally become an empty title, which is still meaningless.

It's like going through the Jōnin vote of confidence if you want to be a Hokage. Jōnin is the backbone of the village. With their support, Hokage's seat is firmly seated. Hokage, who has their support, can also firmly grasp the two important groups, Anbu and the Security Department, so that they can do what they want to do.

If you didn't go through this step, like the high-ranking Hokage like Danzo in the original work, if it weren't for the war period, it is estimated that the decree would not work at all, and he could only rely on his own root organization to do things. But then again, if it were not for the war, Danzo would never have the chance to be on top.

Anyway, Danzo still has a root, but what the two consultants have are only a few confidants. What can these people do? With Anbu and Neji's special intelligence unit, they can hardly do anything.

"It won't work... well, can this work?"

"Of course it can."

Neji felt that Tsunade still didn’t understand what he meant, and explained: “It doesn’t work, it’s not that you can’t do anything. Rather, no matter what you do, you can’t get the right results. Let’s put it this way, if they want to form an intelligence organization. , Then what they get is false and wrong information."

Tsunade suddenly realized: "That's it!"

"Right? Getting a bunch of wrong results like this is the same as not running. And he can't blame you yet, who would call them incompetent."

This guy……

Shizune was listening, and the more he listened, the more he looked at Neji with admiration. She felt more and more that this kid was really scheming and pretending to be bad water. It would be really unlucky for anyone to provoke him.

It's really not a person to look like...just from the outside, he looks more like a hermit who is indifferent to fame and fortune. As a result, he immediately reveals his nature when he speaks.

Tsunade has a similar feeling. Every time she sees Neji, she always feels that this kid is totally two people when talking and not talking. When he is not speaking, almost everyone thinks that he is that kind of cold and handsome guy. But as long as you speak, your image will change immediately.

"Then do it." Tsunade accepted Neji's proposal. "First make this matter public in the village, and then we will see you."

Neji said: "Then I suggest that you don't come to the public, it is easy to be honest. It is best to let others do this secretly, to achieve an ‘accidental disclosure’ effect."

Tsunade: "..."

Neji saw her silent and asked, "What? Do you think it's inappropriate?"

"No... nothing."

Tsunade shook his head, and suddenly talked about another thing.

"Actually, I called you so late, not just for this paper. Shizune was right. It doesn't matter if I talk about it tomorrow. However, there is another thing that keeps me awake. I have to tell you now. That's fine."

"what's up?"

"About the Hyuga clan. Shizune, you go to my study and get the letters in the left drawer."

"Oh."

Shizune went to get it immediately, and returned after a while, with four or five letters in his hand. Neji glanced at the marks on the letter, which were all sent from other hidden villages.

Tsunade took these letters and shook them in his hand: "This is from several different hidden villages. There is only one content, and I want people from the Hyuga clan to settle in their village."

"..."

It's coming.

Tsunade said: "Different hidden villages have different conditions. Some say that as long as the Hyuga clan passes, regardless of men, women, old or young, they will be given preferential treatment. Others will also be given subsidies together with our village. The most exaggerated is that Kirigakure this one."

Tsunade singled out the blue-clad letter: "Kirigakure's letter says that if the Hyuga people go to settle in their village, they will be allowed to join the village government organization."

It is allowed to join the government affairs organization, which means that there is a probability of becoming a high-level member of the village. This is indeed a bit exaggerated.

However, Neji can understand even thinking about it. There is a ninja named "Blue" in Kirigakure, and there is a Byakugan. Because there is one, he and even Mist Shinobi know the preciousness of Byakugan. Therefore, the desire is stronger.

After speaking, Tsunade put down the letter and looked at Neji deeply: "The removal of the curse has already caused a chain reaction. Now many hidden villages hope to'introduce' the Hyuga clan. Do you think I, Hokage, should agree or disagree Woolen cloth?"

This question is a bit of a thunder, if you say that you should agree, you might just betray the village's interests and put your head on it. If he says that he shouldn't agree, but it goes against Neji's inner thoughts.

Fortunately, he knew that Tsunade was not a person who likes to put hats on, but he asked, "Before answering, I would like to know, what is your reason for being a Hokage?"

There was no reason for this question. Tsunade was stunned, and said, "The reason? Of course it is to make the village better, so that people are no longer poisoned by Danzo's bastards."

"That's it?"

"……if not?"

Tsunade didn't understand what Neji really meant. She listened to Neji's "Nothing but this" and suddenly became a little annoyed. Raised his eyebrows and asked: "What about you, don't you want to be Hokage too, what's your reason?"

Neji straightened up and said seriously: "I want to say my reason...that is, I want the whole world to be better."

Tsunade didn't expect this. She thought she had heard it wrong.

"Are you kidding me?"

"No."

It's rare for Neji to speak the truth, this is what he says.

As long as your own village is good, other villages do not matter... This is not Neji's philosophy. Perhaps it has something to do with him as a traverser. In his heart, there is often the phrase "Long live the unity of the people of the world".

In this world, most people don't live well. This is what Neji has witnessed on many "business trips". So what he thought in his heart was not to make Konoha a peaceful and prosperous world, but to try to make all the villages get better.

This idea seems to many people to be a fantasy, nonsense. If you go out and talk, you will definitely be laughed out of. Everyone will laugh and say that even First Hokage can't do such a thing... But Neji is a traverser, and he is assisted by crimson, so he can't judge by common sense.

Because of this, he was able to make this great determination. If he is mediocre and ordinary, then the desire may be just to have a family and protect his wife and children.

There is a saying that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but Neji believes that the greater the ability, the greater the ambition. If you only have the ability to change yourself, you will only want to change yourself. If you have the ability to change everything... then you will naturally want to change everything.

Tsunade came back to his senses, looked at Neji who was not joking, and questioned: "Make the whole world better. Do you think you can do this by being Hokage? Hokage is just a shadow of a village. That's it!"

She blurted out and said: "Unless you don't just want to be the shadow of a village."

As soon as this was said, Tsunade and Neji's expressions became a little strange.

Neji's eyes flickered slightly, and he said nothing.

Tsunade slowly changed his expression from suspicion to shock, and finally stood up: "You... shouldn't you... really think so?"
