Chapter 517: My Own Work and Traditional Arts

"What is Hanyu-sama thinking?"

When Hanyu is deep in thought, it may be that he is really thinking about some serious issue, it may be cranky, or it may be that he is just in a daze.

"I'm thinking about how I can raise the Hokage's salary a little more, I just looked at the treatment of the three generations...... Although it is high enough, it can be even higher. ”

Hanyu said without looking back at Uzumaki Ziko, who had come to report something.

As for what she was reporting, he only listened to a rough idea.

Hanyu was sitting in a chair with his back to his desk, facing the window and enjoying the view...... Although he didn't have much to see other than the rows of buildings and the shadow rocks further away.

This is Hanyu's office, and it's the new "Hokage's office" – the inauguration ceremony was already yesterday.

However, although Hanyu's identity has changed, Uzumaki Zikou still refers to Hanyu as "Hanyu-sama" as always, rather than "Shidaime" or "Hokage-sama". This has nothing to do with Hanyu's wishes, only her own wishes, which means...... Let's not talk about it.

"If there's no way to give me additional special expenses, how about I embezzle the salaries of the ninjas below......

Hanyu then gave an idea of apologizing to the people of the whole country, impeaching the advisors, and forcing the ninjas to rebel.

"Hanyu-sama, you don't have any special material needs...... Maybe you should ask Tsunade-sama to change her bad habits. ”

To this day, Tsunade's "gambling reputation" has spread in Konoha, and even in the mouths of some old people, she has received a high-standard evaluation of "quite similar to her ancestors, but still excessive", but these words can't be said on the surface, and everyone pretends not to know.

"There's no need for that, it's just a hobby, it's just a spice and embellishment of daily life...... Just like some people like to play chess, some people like to jump. ”

Hanyu's bitterness has actually reached the level of "it's not a sin for a man to cry", but at this time he still protects his face.

"Don't worry, I'm just kidding......

I would never take a penny from a ninja; Konoha can go out of business, but it will never go bad.

Only, if you can...... It would be best to turn the village into a listed company before it goes out of business. ”

"......" Zikouxin said why are you performing this here?

"Hanyu-sama, if you can, try not to go out of business if Konoha can."

"I understand."

Hanyu said nonchalantly.

The new Hokage-sama seems a little unreliable.

"Also, what about what I just reported, Hanyu-sama?"

"In the future, you can handle the daily things by yourself and report the results to me regularly...... Everything is the same as the old practice on the other side of the Shadow Stream. ”

And...... He's even more unreliable.

After becoming the Hokage, Shadow Stream is still under Hanyu's direct leadership, and the position of "Lord of Shadow Stream" is not yet time to step down.

It's just that managing a small organization of dozens of people like Shadow Flow is not the same as managing a huge organization with a total of more than 10,000 combat power and a total population of more than 200,000 in the entire Konoha era, the problem is not in Uzumaki Zikou's ability, but in her identity and the influence of holding this position.

"Hanyu-sama, this ...... Could there be any problems. ”

"If there are any problems, character, ability, and my trust, etc., if there are no problems in these aspects, you will not ask."

Although Hanyu's decentralization is a little exaggerated, Zikou is definitely trustworthy, and Zikou does many things better than him...... And Hanyu doesn't care about everything, and the priorities related to the war can only be decided by him, the fourth generation.

"I know what you're worried about, don't worry, you'll definitely have a name for it when you exercise your authority."

At the time of Shadowstream, Uzumaki was just a "secretary", but the name of the deputy was enough for her to run the organization.

But it definitely can't be in Konoha, theoretically the Hokage's secretary is just like the Hokage's little secretary, there are many things that she has no right to meddle in, and she doesn't have that authority.

"After becoming Hokage, the next thing I'm going to do is expand the number of advisors. You, on the side of the Shadow Stream, as well as Qimu Shuomao, and the three disciples of the three generations will all have such titles...... The position of an adviser is somewhat detached, but if it is not appointed, its terms of reference are ambiguous and vague.

So with this title, and my appointment, then you can legitimately help me with a lot of work. ”

Hanyu thinks more comprehensively...... It's all about being lazy.

At this time, the four generations of Hokage-sama were like the nobles of the country who suddenly became the king of the corrupt country, and threw away the power of the Hokage like a stinking shit.

"Wouldn't that encroach on the interests of the two advisors? At this stage, Hanyu-sama should maintain the support of his advisors. ”

"There is no encroachment on their authority, the two advisors are still in charge of their original work, and the only loss is that there are no longer only two advisors - their position is slightly shared.

But I can assure you that they will definitely support my decision...... Once they realized that I had increased the number of advisors in order to distract themselves from power.

Compared to their loss, those two people will definitely feel that my casual exercise of Hokage's power has caused more harm. ”

Although Hanyu just put some of the day-to-day power in the hands of Zikou, which is not strictly speaking, it is not a dispersion, because Zikou is obedient to him, but ...... At least Uzumaki Zikou looks more reliable than him.

“…… Hanyu-sama, if you know these things so well, why don't you take on the position of Hokage, you have the ability to do this well. Zikou said this, in fact, this must be regarded as a tactful consolation.

Hanyu's answer is succinct and clear:

"Because I'm lazy."

Here you can see that he really has little interest in managing the village and acting as the Hokage.

A person who has an intention for the position of Hokage and an ideal for the village will definitely dissect the shortcomings of the village and then start to innovate and even institutionalize it, but Hanyu has no idea of this.

He thought Konoha was fine now, so he decided to keep it as usual as he could—interestingly, if Hanyu messed around the village, he would be disgusted by the two advisors, but if he didn't change anything...... It also makes them angry.

The village chief is a great position, why doesn't this person cherish it?

"Alright, that's it...... It's almost time, and we're ready to go. ”

Hanyu stopped Uzumaki's next words, and then he stood up and prepared to leave his office.

After he became the fourth generation, he had to do the first very important thing...... It was actually to preside over the funeral of the three generations of Hokage.

Because his identity is the most formal, solemn and appropriate.

So at this time, whether it is Hanyu or Uzumaki Zikou, they are all dressed in black.

As for Tsunade, she had already arrived at the scene first, and now she should be staying with Sarutobi's clan - in addition to her family, those three disciples should be the closest people to the three generations of Hokage, or it can be said that the "three ninjas" are also the family members of the three generations of Hokage.

It's just that at the funeral scene, only Tsunade can appear.

I don't know if it's because Hanyu's previous suggestion worked, but in short, the apues decided to dispose of the remains of the three generations in the form of cremation.

The scene was just outside the mourning garden, and when Hanyu arrived there, everything was ready there.

The body of the third generation is well preserved, and it is completely impossible to tell that he has been sacrificed for a long time...... He was indeed peaceful, as if he were asleep.

It's just that now he is not under the bed, but specially treated firewood.

Hanyu stepped forward and confirmed that it was the remains of the third generation.

Many people are immersed in grief, and there is definitely no need to do more nonsense on this occasion, just silently follow the process again.

"Three generations, all the way."

Just as Hanyu silently made his last blessing in his heart, and it was also a rare heartfelt blessing, he saw Sarutobi Kohei walk up to him and hand him a burning torch.

"Forehead ......"

What do these mean?

First two generations and then three generations, after many years, double? Professional? Am I an incinerator with strong incineration skills?

Which bastard's bad taste is this?
