Chapter 531: Seeking Common Ground While Reserving Differences (1)
Three days later.
Konoha Village.
After receiving a notice from the three generations of Hokage, the Daimyo of the Fire Nation came to Konoha Village with a group of Fire Nation Daimyo Mansion officials (except for those who stayed in the Daimyo Mansion).
(By the time the Fire Nation Daimyo and a group of Fire Nation Daimyo officials arrived in Konoha, Konoha had been put on first-level security.) )
When the news spread that the Daimyo of the Fire Country and a group of Fire Country Daimyo Mansion officials had come to Konoha, the major ninja clans of Konoha were taken aback - because the Fire Country Daimyo had come to Konoha with a group of Fire Country Daimyo Mansion officials only a handful of times.
(Neither the three generations of Hokage, Mito Menyan, Koharu Koharu, Shimura Danzo, nor Hinata Ichiro, Tsunade, or Jiraiya have publicized Hinata Ichiro's desire to change the national system.) )
Since it was not clear what the Daimyo of the Fire Country had come with a group of officials from the Fire Country Daimyo's Mansion, the major ninja clans of Konoha had used their respective channels to find out the news.
Regarding the actions of the major ninja clans of Konoha to use their respective channels to find out the intentions of the Daimyo of the Fire Country and the officials of the Daimyo Mansion of the Fire Country, the three generations of Hokage did not care, but intended to reveal the news of the imminent merger of the Daimyo Mansion and Konoha Village.
When the major ninjas of Konoha learned the news of the merger of the Daimyo Mansion and the Konoha Village Association through inquiry, they all gasped - the news that the system of one country and one village, which had been more than fifty years old, was about to disappear had to shock the major ninja clans of Konoha.
After the shock, all the major ninja clans of Konoha held a family meeting - when the great change was coming, the major families of Konoha needed to unify their family opinions and deal with the great change.
……
Sunset Red Residence.
Looking at Hinata Kyoko, who notified him to participate in the family meeting held by the Hyuga clan, Hinata Ichiro shook his head and refused: "Sister Kyoko, I can't attend the family meeting of the Hyuga clan!"
"Young Master Ichiro, why?" asked Hinata Kyoko with a puzzled expression.
"To avoid suspicion!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Avoiding suspicion!?" Hinata Kyoko asked, "Young Master Ichiro, what do you mean by 'avoiding suspicion' in your mouth?"
"The merger of the Daimyo's Mansion and Konoha Village was proposed by me!" Hinata Ichiro looked at Hinata Kyoko and replied, "So, I can't attend the family meeting held by the Hyuga clan!"
Hinata Ichiro's answer surprised Hinata Kyoko.
"Young Master Ichiro, what you said is true?" asked Hinata Kyoko.
"It's true!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Young Master Ichiro, this is really amazing!" Hinata Kyoko said.
"Sister Kyoko, after you go back, tell your father-in-law - after Hinata Ichiro has unified the opinions within the family, don't express any opinions except for declaring that he supports the merger of the Daimyo's Mansion and Konoha Village!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"I see!" Hinata said Kyoko.
"Let's go back!" Hinata Ichiro said.
Hearing this, Hinata Kyoko returned to the Hyuga clan.
……
Konoha State Guesthouse.
Daimyo room.
Hinata Ichiro and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire sat opposite each other.
With a flick of his fingers, a ray of light shot from Hinata Ichiro's fingertips into the eyebrows of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
"Daimyo-sama, the restrictions have been lifted!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Isn't it until the reform of the national system is officially implemented that you will take action to lift your restrictions on me!" said the Fire Nation Daimyo.
"With the news of the merger of the Daimyo's Mansion and Konoha Village already spread, changing the order will only bring you and the three generations of Hokage to the ground off!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Hehe!" the Daimyo of the Land of Fire smiled.
Seeing the Daimyo of the Land of Fire chuckling, Hinata Ichiro said, "Daimyo-sama, after such a long time, I think you have already had an opinion on changing the national system reform plan I proposed!"
"Now, allow me to watch your changes!"
"Hinata Ichiro, as for the change in my hand, I'll wait until tomorrow when we discuss it!" said the Daimyo of the Fire Country, "Otherwise, someone will be given a handle!"
"What the daimyo said is true, but I was reckless!" Hinata Ichiro said.
……
A day later.
Morning.
The Hokage office building.
Conference Room 1.
The Daimyo of the Land of Fire and a group of officials from the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire, the three generations of Hokage and a group of Konoha high-ranking officials, Hinata Ichiro, Tsunade, Jiraiya, etc., gathered together.
Because the merger of the Daimyo Mansion and Konoha Village was proposed by Hinata Ichiro, after the official start of the meeting, Hinata Ichiro introduced his own plan for the reform of the national system.
Half an hour later.
After some introduction, Hinata Ichiro finished talking about his plan for the reform of the national system.
(After Konoha agreed to merge the Daimyo Mansion and Konoha Village, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the officials of the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire came to Konoha, Tsunade, the three Hokage, Mito Menyan, Koharu Kanto, Shimura Danzo, and Jiraiya had been informed of Hinata's plan for the reform of the national system through Ichiro Hinata himself.) )
Through Hinata's detailed introduction, except for Mito Menyan, Zhuan Koharu and Shimura Danzo, other Konoha executives have considered the pros and cons of Hinata's national system reform plan.
(Before Konoha agreed to merge the Daimyo Mansion and Konoha Village, officials of the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire had been informed of Hinata's plan for the reform of the national system through the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.) )
While the other Konoha high-level officials were considering, an official of the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire put forward the opinion of the Daimyo Mansion on behalf of the Daimyo Mansion.
After the official of the Fire Country Daimyo Mansion who opened his mouth finished speaking, Mito Menyan also put forward Konoha's opinion on behalf of Konoha.
After listening to the opinions of the Daimyo's Mansion and Konoha's opinions, Hinata Ichiro's brows furrowed - whether it was the Daimyo's Mansion or Konoha's opinion, it was very different from Hinata's plan for changing the national system.
"Daimyo-sama, Hokage-sama, are you kidding me?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Hinata Ichiro, the opinion of the Daimyo Mansion does not contradict the principle of the unity of political power and military power that you proposed at the beginning, nor does it violate the principle of separation of legislative power, management power, and judicial power that you proposed at the beginning!" said the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
"Ichiro, Konoha's opinion also follows the two principles you proposed!" said the third Hokage.
Regarding the words of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the three generations of Hokage, Hinata Ichiro debated.
It's a pity that neither the Daimyo of the Fire Nation nor the three generations of Hokage are people who will make concessions easily.
So, the first consultation ended in a tripartite debate – in which nothing was agreed except that the parties knew the views of the other parties.
(The so-called three parties refer to the Daimyo side of the Daimyo Mansion represented by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the officials of the Daimyo Mansion, the three generations of Hokage, the Konoha side represented by the Konoha high-ranking officials and Jiraiya, and the separate party represented by Hinata Ichiro, Tsunade who represented himself.) )
(Tsunade neutrality was requested by Hinata Ichiro.) )
Of course, in the three-way debate, the advantage of the Daimyo's side is the greatest, the advantage of the Konoha side is second, and Hinata Ichiro is at a disadvantage.
……
Sunset Red Residence.
Looking at Hinata Ichiro, who was frowning, Tsunade said, "Ichiro, I'll just give up my neutral identity!"
"No!" Hinata Ichiro flatly refused, "Tsunade, you must not give up your neutral status!"
"Otherwise, my hard work will be in vain!"
"However, the current situation is not good for you!" Tsunade said.
"I'll figure it out!" Hinata Ichiro said.
After speaking, Hinata Ichiro got up directly.
Seeing Hinata Ichiro walking out, Tsunade asked, "Ichiro, where are you going?"
"Among the opinions put forward by the Daimyo Mansion and the opinions put forward by Konoha Village, the opinions of Konoha Village are closer to the plan for the reform of the national system that I want to implement!" Hinata Ichiro said, "So, I plan to enlist Konoha's support first!"
"You're going to find the old man?" asked Tsunade.
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Do you think it's useful for you to go to the old man?" asked Tsunade.
"Gotta give it a try!" Hinata said.
Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you—if I go, I'll convince the old man to have some certainty!"
"No!" Hinata Ichiro said, "You need to be neutral, it's not appropriate for you to come with me!"
Hearing Hinata Ichiro say this, Tsunade had to give up.
……
'Root' headquarters.
A certain room.
"Hinata Ichiro, tell me what you mean!" said Shimura Danzo.
"Danzo, why am I here, don't you know?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Hehe!" Shimura smiled.
Seeing that Shimura Danzou was smiling and silent, Hinata Ichiro said bluntly: "I'll help you capture the three tails, and you support my plan to reform the national system!"
"I've already sent someone to capture Mi-Tails!" said Shimura Danzo, "It won't be long before Mi-O is in my hands!"
Knowing from Shimura Tunzo's mouth that Shimura Tunzo had sent someone to capture Miao, Hinata Ichiro frowned.
"Danzo, you should inform me when you capture Miao!" Hinata Ichiro said, "I've made this clear in the scroll!"
"'Root' has its own medical ninja!" said Shimura Danzo.
"In other words, you're not going to help me?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"No!" said Shimura Danzo, "I'm more than willing to help you!"
"It's just, what I want is not for you to help me capture the three tails!"
"What do you want?" asked Ichiro Hinata.
"If you can nominate me as the number two person in Tsunade, I can support your plan for the reform of the national system!" said Shimura Danzo.
After Shimura finished speaking, Hinata Ichiro's face immediately changed.
"Danzo, there's no need for us to talk any further!" Hinata Ichiro said.
After saying that, Hinata Ichiro got up.
Seeing that Hinata Ichiro was leaving, Shimura Danzo said: "Hinata Ichiro, in the case that both the daimyo and Hizashi have proposed their own plans, only I can help you!"
"So, I want you to think about it!"
"Tuanzang, you underestimate me too much!" Hinata Ichiro said, "It's not like I don't have hole cards in my hand!"
Hearing Hinata Ichiro say this, Shimura Danzo's eyes narrowed.
Afterwards, Shimura Danzo said, "Hinata Ichiro, I'm sure you'll come to me again!"
"Hehe!" Hinata Ichiro smiled.
After laughing, Hinata Ichiro walked away.
……
The Hokage office building.
Hokage's office.
Looking at Hinata Ichiro who came in, the third Hokage said, "Ichiro, I knew you would come to me!"
"But, it's useless for you to come to me!"
"Because Konoha's opinion is the collective opinion of me, Menyan, Koharu, and Danzang!"
For the words of the three generations of Hokage, Hinata Ichiro didn't care.
Hinata Ichiro looked at the three generations of Hokage and said, "I'm willing to help Naruto Uzumaki get the Nine-Tails Chakra!"
Hinata Ichiro's words made the three generations of Hokage stunned.
After a second or two.
"Ichiro, aren't you unwilling to help Naruto tame the Nine-Tails?" asked the third Hokage.
"This time, that time!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Besides, helping Naruto Uzumaki get the Nine-Tails Chakra is not the same as helping Naruto Uzumaki tame the Nine-Tails!"
"What do you mean by that?" asked the three Hokages.
"If you want to truly tame the Nine-Tails, you must gain the approval of the Nine-Tails!" Hinata Ichiro explained, "However, it is not easy for the Nine-Tails Pillar Force to gain the approval of the Nine-Tails!"
"After all, the Nine-Tails is synonymous with 'hate'!"
"In other words, all I can do is help Naruto Uzumaki get the Nine-Tails Chakra!"
"Will Naruto lose his sense of self after he gets the Nine-Tails Chakra?" asked the third Hokage.
"No!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Naruto Uzumaki got the chakra of the Nine-Tails, not the hatred of the Nine-Tails!"
"So, Naruto Uzumaki, who got the Nine-Tails Chakra, won't lose his sense of self!"
When he learned that Naruto Uzumaki would not lose his sense of self because he got the Nine-Tails Chakra, the hearts of the three Hokages moved.
However, the three generations of Hokage did not agree to Ichiro Hinata.
"Ichiro, it still doesn't work!" said the third Hokage shaking his head.
Seeing that the three generations of Hokage disagreed, Hinata Ichiro continued: "I am willing to liberate the soul of Bo Feng Shuimen!"
"What do you mean by liberation?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, are you aware of the side effects of the 'Ghoul Seal' on the caster's soul?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
The third Hokage replied, "I know very well what kind of side effects the 'Ghoul Seal' will have on the caster's soul!"
Hinata Ichiro looked at the three generations of Hokage and said slowly, "I can let the soul of Bo Feng Shuimen enter the Pure Land of Bliss!"
After knowing from Hinata Ichiro's mouth what was going on with Hyuga's liberation of the soul of Bo Feng Shuimen, the three generations of Hokage were completely moved.
"Can you really allow the soul of Bo Feng Shuimen to enter the Pure Land of Bliss?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, if I can't do it, I won't say it!" Hinata Ichiro said.
The third Hokage looked at Hinata Ichiro and said, "I'll try my best to help you convince Menyan, Koharu and Danzo!"
"However, if Menyan, Koharu, and Tuanzang are not willing to make concessions, then I can't help it!"
"After all, I can't be arbitrary!"
"Hokage-sama, you just need to convince the Mito Advisor and the Transfer Advisor!" Hinata Ichiro said, "As for Shimura Danzo, you don't need to convince him!"
"Have you convinced Danzo?" asked the third Hokage.
"I didn't convince Shimura Danzo!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Since you didn't convince Danzo, then why don't you want me to convince Danzo?" asked the third Hokage.
"Danzo's ambition is too big, you can't convince him!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"What do you mean by that?" asked the three Hokages.
