Chapter 190: Abdication (I/2 in 1)
After some discussion, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
The three generations of Hokage will abdicate in seven days, the Sarutobi clan will move out of the central area of Konoha and all technology and family information will be transferred to Kaguya unconditionally. Almost the same night, Kaguya used the world to empty the materials and funds that the Sarutobi clan had accumulated over the years, which could be regarded as revenge for their long-term large-scale looting of finances with the protection of the three generations of Hokage.
Although some people in the Sarufei clan were unwilling to give it up for nothing, under the strong suppression of Lake Biwa, this matter was also suppressed.
The next day, early in the morning.
When the first rays of sunlight pierced the night and shone on the earth, Konoha Village, which had been devastated and baptized by civil war, finally ushered in peace and new life in the sunshine, and with the collapse of the old order of Konoha, a new power structure was established with Uchiha as the center.
Kaguya stood on the cold street, looking up at the clear sky, with a look of peace on his face that everything had finally settled.
Is it finally over?
No, not yet.
As the new order is established, the wind and rain will become more and more fierce in the future, whether it is the war that has not yet subsided, or the remnants of the old forces that have not been completely eliminated in the village, and the strong enemies that will rise in the near future, all of this will turn into a storm and launch a head-on challenge to Kaguya.
That's when Kaguya's abilities and means will be truly tested.
……………………
Seven days later, the Hokage's temporary office building, the old building is in ruins.
On this day, tens of thousands of people gathered in front of the Hokage Building, whether it was residents or vendors from other places, and a large area of Wuyang occupied almost every inch of the street, and everyone stretched their necks and looked towards the top of the Hokage Building, everyone's faces were full of anticipation, and they also knew that something big would happen today.
With heavily armed Uchiha and Hyuga families patrolling the streets to maintain law and order while preventing some of the remnants of the fleeing roots from jumping out and causing trouble, today is a big day for both of them, not only the Uchiha will rewrite history from today, but for Hinata, the new Hokage is shouldering the heavy expectations of the Hyuga family.
Although the crowd was large and noisy, it was fortunate that it was not chaotic, although occasionally a few suspicious people were looking around for information.
"Hey, what the hell is going on here, man? It's not a festival, why are they all gathered? ”
The Konoha villager who was stopped turned his head to look around, and when he saw him dressed up, he knew that he had just come from outside.
"The new footwalker?"
"Yes, yes, I just arrived in Konoha two days ago, and I want to do some small business and eat."
"Then you really know how to pick the time, there is just a big event happening in our Konoha Village these days."
"Big deal?"
There was a hint of intelligence in the peddler's eyes, he knew that a small but extremely fierce conflict had broken out in Konoha seven days ago, but unfortunately it happened so suddenly that it ended almost in a few hours, and many people were declared to be over before they could figure out what was going on.
However, although the conflict is over, the traces left by the fierce fighting at that time can never be erased.
For example, the Hokage Building, which has been reduced to ruins, and the completely destroyed Yanbi Mountain, the mountain wall with the heads of the three Hokages, as if it has been hollowed out directly from the middle, half of the mountain has turned into oval slag, and the remaining half is also crumbling.
And just as the spy disguised as a foot merchant was still thinking about how to find information, suddenly the crowd erupted in cheers, wave after wave, resounding in all directions.
At this time, I raised my head, only to see a figure slowly appear on the temporarily built high platform, the third generation of eyes wearing a Hokage hat, wearing a robe of the gods, slowly walked to the front of the stage in the endless cheers, although he is not tall, but in charge of Konoha for nearly twenty years has already erected a noble image in the hearts of the people.
Listen to the cheers that almost shook the earth and soared into the sky!
Every citizen's face was full of excitement and longing, and the representatives of various families sat on the sightseeing seats on the nearby high platform, and at this time, they also got up with respect on their faces, and their faces were smiling and smiling their palms, which shows how correct Kaguya's decision was at the beginning, with this popular will and appeal, he really slaughtered three generations with one sword, and how to deal with the aftermath alone is enough for him to have a headache.
"In the end, it's the third generation, this fame is by no means comparable to that of the Uchiha."
So said the representative of the Autumn Taoist family.
"That's not necessarily, today is the last time he appears as Hokage, and the foreseeable forty years in the future will have to be the world of the Uchiha, and his previous fame after his fall will quickly disappear with time, and he will soon be replaced."
Yamanaka Kikuichi stood on the high platform, looking at the people cheering wildly in the audience, he didn't think that this situation could last long, at this time, the three generations had today's formation completely by virtue of the fame accumulated over the years, but if it was really about merit, probably maintaining stability was the only shining point during his administration.
"However, after the third generation of the three generations step down, there is a high probability that the power will be temporarily transferred to the Council of Elders, and before the daimyo checks the next successor, won't the power of Konoha fall to Elder Koharu and others......"
"Don't worry about that, this morning's news, the old Council of Elders has been abolished."
Nara Luyuan, who was standing on the side, said.
"This morning, the Moonlight family sent someone to send the news that the elders will hold a new election. It is estimated that the man wanted to completely dismember the position and power of the group, and transfer part of it to the management of the elder group, and the rest of the power was centralized in the hands of the Hokage. But in this way, there should be more than three places for the elders, and if you count us and the new Gosan, as well as Hinata and Uchiha, there will be at least eight places. ”
"No, I don't think the Uchiha family will send someone to run for elder, it doesn't make sense for them like that."
"The Uchiha is already in power, there is no need to run to get a piece of the pie, and if the elder group is really reorganized, in the final analysis, it is actually the cake remade by the lord and distributed to the family in the village, and its appeasement significance is greater than political significance."
Kikuichi Yamanaka said.
"Not necessarily, if some of the authority of the group was given to the elders, it would be much better than if it were only an advisor in the past. The question is how much power he is willing to delegate...... Internal investigative powers? ”
Nara deer looked at Yamanaka Kikuichi inquiringly.
"I don't know, but it's not going to be a job that will leave a good name anyway."
"Hahaha, that's true."
Kikuichi and Lu Yuan thought of something almost at the same time, and the two smiled bitterly at each other, only Qiu Dao, who was dazed next to him, was still munching on potato chips.
………………
"Silence!"
At this time, Miyome had already ascended the high platform, and the moment he raised his hand, the entire neighborhood became extremely quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on the three generations of purpose at this time, and everyone was waiting for an explanation at this time, and it was seven days late, and it was only today that the secret that was decided to be revealed to everyone.
The three generations looked at the people in the audience, groaned slightly, and then opened their mouths and made a loud sound.
Through the expansion of the chakra, the entire neighborhood can be clearly heard.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the third generation of Hokage, and the ape flies to the sun."
Woohoo! As soon as these words came out, the people in the audience were like boiling hot water, making a scorching shout and scream, at this time, no matter how many times the dark part of the stage scolded and cleared, they could not suppress the enthusiasm in the hearts of the people, they shouted the names of the three generations, raised their hands, and their faces were full of happy smiles.
Endless cheers swept through every area of the street like waves, and the crowd was completely in a frenzy. After all, for them, the meaning of the village of the third generation is very special, not only because he has ruled Konoha Village for many years, but more importantly, with his protection and efforts, Konoha Village can completely get out of the first ninja war, and under his leadership, he walked out of the grief of the sacrifice of the second generation, and re-established a prosperous Konoha under the ruins of the war.
Even to this day, the people of Konoha will not forget the dedication and exploits of the three generations in the past, for many people, the three generations are not just a Hokage, he is a banner in his own right, the flag does not fall, Konoha will prosper, no matter how hard the blow and sorrow is, as long as he is there, the village will definitely be able to regain its strength, and then revive and prosper.
Looking at the people in the audience who were frantically calling for their names, at this time, the three generations were also moved by the old tears, a lifetime of dedication, never regretted, what he was looking forward to and longing for was the voice of the people in front of him, and their cheers and respect at this time were enough to make the three generations feel that even if he died in the next second, he could puff up his chest and go to see the first generation and the second generation with pride.
The cheers grew louder and louder, until the entire Konoha sky resounded, and the excited shouts made Kaguya, who was hiding behind the attic and watching all this, a little dark, he was confident that he would build Konoha in the next few years, but it was also a great challenge for him to face such a high prestige of the three generations.
Kaguya looked at the boiling people on the street, listening to the cheers that thundered in his ears, and he sighed at this time: "Three generations are like a needle for the village, he is here and the people are at ease. Although the Uchiha is new and enterprising, and the martial arts are abundant, the difference between the two is like heaven and earth. If you want to truly replace him, you must set a new flag in the hearts of the people. ”
"Your future is more difficult than you imagined, Yueyong."
Looking back, I saw a girl with white cloth over her eyes, sitting on a bench next to the corridor, quietly listening to the cheers outside.
Yue Yong responded in a deep voice: "It's okay, there is an example in front of me, but I can be right." ”
Her eyes were almost impossible to see after that night, but fortunately she did not lose her eyesight, but the first time she opened her eyes, she completely overdrew her child's strength, and after seven days of cultivation, she has now recovered, but she is still afraid of light, so when she goes out, she can only cover her eyes with a white cloth to prevent the light from hurting her eyeballs.
Baihua next to him tapped lightly at his temple, and said helplessly: "Yes, lest you go crazy again and drag tens of thousands of people to die together, do you know that if you didn't fight for your life that night, the world would be bombed all over the place, otherwise you are now a complete murderous maniac, I really don't know what you think." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yue Yong's face turned red.
"That's not my intention, the power surge is uncontrollable, my original intention was to destroy the group and the roots in one go, I didn't expect the power of the kaleidoscope to be so strong, and by the time I reacted, it was too late."
"That's it, fortunately no one saw you at the time, otherwise you'd be finished."
Looking at the ashamed Yueyong, Kaguya smiled slightly.
"It's not all to blame Yue Yong, you all have the authority of the inner world, and there is obviously something in the inner world that can affect you, including my own writing wheel eye has been transformed into an inexplicable state. Therefore, I guess that the surge in power should also be related to the spiritual will of the inner world, and it is likely that Yueyong's kaleidoscope has been increased by the inner world, so it can explode with such a powerful power for the first time. ”
"Is that so?"
Baihua asked curiously.
Kaguya nodded.
"It's almost certain that there is a problem in the inner world, and the best evidence is that it consumes such a huge amount of child's power, but Yueyong needs to recuperate for seven days because of overdrawing her child's strength, but her eyesight itself has not faded at all. I think it should have something to do with the fact that our spiritual power is linked to the inner world, and Yueyong's consumption is also evenly distributed on us. ”
"Well, maybe Orochimaru and Tsunade are among them, after all, they also have access to some of the inner worlds."
"I'll go to Orochimaru tonight to ask for the specific details." Kaguya suddenly laughed, "Speaking of which, I forgot that Orochimaru had been staying in the inner world, and only then did I remember to ask him for help when the matter was over." But it's okay, in the future, the mess at the root will be handed over to him to manage, and the three of us won't have to worry about it. ”
Baihua said: "The premise is that you can drag him out, he can't wait to die in it now and don't want to come out." Endless experiments all day long, and I don't know what he's studying. ”
"After all, the experiments in the world are fictional, and they must be reproduced in reality before they can be truly used. Just use this excuse to pull him out, the current Orochimaru is more otaku than a heavy otaku, which is indeed too much. ”
Kaguya lamented, he didn't expect Orochimaru to be obsessed with this, the last time Baihua went to knock on the door was ignored, although he went to knock on the door and was invited in, but soon Kaguya found that the other party had no existence of himself in his eyes at all, he was like a humanoid material, Orochimaru wanted to tie him up and throw him on the operating table several times, and almost died of anger.
"I really have to let him do something, and I can't stay in there all day."
Kaguya thought about it, speaking of which, the Konoha R&D Department still lacks a position as a minister, and the people who were in the group before were killed by Kaguya, just enough to let Orochimaru go to the top, and localize some of the modern weapons that Kaguya conceived as soon as possible, such as the Thunder Escape cannon in the Land of Thunder is outrageous, and it is too to bombard the moon on the earth.
In addition, the surgery to transplant limbs should also be developed as soon as possible, so as to ensure that the ninjas who are severely disabled and not dead in future wars can return to the battlefield through limb replacement. Kaguya has a hunch that the Great War in the Land of Rain is coming to an end, but a bigger war may be on the horizon.
It's important to be prepared as soon as possible before the storm comes.
