Chapter 104: The Conflict of Ideas

On the third day after the evacuation of the battlefield, the Hokage Edict from Konoha arrived at the temporary station of the mobile force in the northern part of Kawanokuni.

In the edict, the Hokage enthusiastically praised Hashiki Sakushige's exploits in the Battle of Sungakure in Kawanokuni, believing that the battle would lay the foundation for at least five years of peace on Konoha's western frontier, and praised him as the true heir to the will of fire.

As for Uchiha Tokumitsu, the edict also mentioned that 'heroic battles are worthy of being a descendant of Uchiha', and then it was gone.

The letter is a mouth-wrenching read.

If Uchiha Tokumitsu hadn't established an alliance with Sakumo Hagi and supported his candidacy for the position of head of the shinobi squad, I am afraid that he would immediately be scolded when he saw the content of this edict.

Even so, Uchiha Tokumitsu couldn't help but show disgust.

At this time, I still play this kind of unpopular pen and ink tricks.,I really can't understand how Konoha F4 sits in the high-level position.。

"Deguangjun, the content of the edict is indeed unfair, but ......"

Sakumo Hagi also felt that his face was gloomy, but he didn't know what to say.

"I understand."

Uchiha Tokumitsu waved his hand to signal that there was no need to explain, "It's just Shuo Mao-kun, are you sure you're ready?" ”

"This is definitely ......"

Hachiki replied with some hesitation.

"Promoting to the top is not as leisurely as inviting guests to dinner, nor is it as straightforward as killing the enemy in battle, it requires exchange and compromise." Uchiha Tokumitsu said seriously, "Perhaps, there will be all kinds of gossip and slander, are you mentally prepared to bear all this?" ”

"I'm ready to start a new Konoha now!" Hagi Sakumo met Uchiha Tokumitsu's gaze and said firmly.

"Our new Konoha ......"

Uchiha Tokumitsu held out his hand.

Hachiki Sakushige also reached out and shook it tightly with Uchiha Tokumitsu.

……

New Konoha!

This is the election manifesto of Sakushige Hagi.

After receiving the Hokage's edict, Uchiha Tokumitsu sent the Red Reserve back to the Daimyo Mansion of the Grass Country to continue garrisoning, and together with Hagi Sakushige, he led the mobile force on the return journey.

At the same time, it also began to officially promote the concept of Qimu Shuomao.

Qimu Shuomao believes that Konoha has shown signs of decline, while the four major ninja villages are constantly rising, and under the power of one and the other, Konoha is very likely to lose the strongest position of the first ninja village in the ninja world in the future.

In the past, the pattern of the ninja world was "one super and four strong", but now it is five strong together; And it is this situation where the strength of the five ninja villages is relatively balanced has created the situation of frequent wars in the ninja world today.

Therefore, to restore peace, it is necessary to have the strongest ninja village to stand up and maintain peace.

Forcing the major ninja villages to give up the rise of ninja villages through war and plunder through overwhelming strength is the only way to achieve peace at present.

And Konoha is the super ninja village who stands up to maintain peace!

However, the current Konoha is stuck in progress due to various ills, so it is in urgent need of reform and vitality to achieve the ninja village review and even the peace of the ninja world.

Although this concept does seem deviant, there is some truth to it when you think about it.

The vision of maintaining peace in the ninja world unites the doves in the village; And the idea of realizing the revival of Konoha and becoming the strongest in the ninja world won the support of the martial arts faction.

Therefore, before Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hachiki Sakushige returned to Konoha, the ideas he preached had been widely spread among the Konoha ninja and gradually spread to the vast middle ninja class.

All ideas and beliefs in the world cannot be supported by one-sided parties, and no matter how perfect the theory is, it can be found faulty and attacked.

Especially Konoha F4 knows that Shigeru Hagi intends to be the leader of the ninja class, and has formed an alliance with the Uchiha clan who are the thorns in his eyes, so he will definitely spread remarks unfavorable to Sakumo Hagi in secret.

For example, Sakumo Hagi is Uchiha's thug trying to control Konoha, or the 'new Konoha' is splitting Konoha to exacerbate Konoha's decline, and so on, all kinds of arguments for or against Konoha are flying all over the sky.

When Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hachiki Sakushige led their troops back to Konoha, even the ordinary villagers of Konoha already knew about Hachiki Sakushige's philosophy and the ensuing conflict of ideas.

But to touch the ideology is to touch the reverse scale of Konoha F4.

Therefore, when Uchiha Tokumitsu and Hagi Shiroshi arrived in Konoha, not only did no high-level officials come to greet them, but after Hagi Sorgeru returned to his home, many villagers often shouted and scolded at the door, shouting and angrily scolding Hagi Sao Shigeru as a sinner who split Konoha.

For these people, Uchiha Tokumitsu naturally won't get used to it.

Under his arrangement, the wolf-like Uchiha teammates of the Police Department arrested all the villagers who dared to offend and threw them into the police department prison and locked them up, no matter who interceded and was not allowed to be released.

Even the shadows who were peeping in the shadows came out and tried to obstruct them, but the police department mercilessly rejected them.

Uchiha Tokumitsu is not bent on getting along with the current Konoha high-level executives, nor is he thinking that he will launch a political change at this time to kill Konoha F4, if the other party is willing, it is not that he can't sit down and talk, but the premise is that he can't stand in the way of his own plan and Hachiki Shuomao.

Subsequently, the existence immediately set off rumors that "Hachiki Sakushige and the Uchiha clan are in cahoots".

……

In the past, Konoha was the only mainstream of thought in the "Will of Fire", lacking a development program in the true sense.

Although it has been continuously extended by the three generations of apes flying and slashing, the already thin "Will of Fire" still can't convince all the Konoha people.

Especially the martial arts faction.

Although the concept of Qimu Shuomao also does not involve specific implementation operations, it at least puts forward one goal.

On the third day after returning to the village, Hachiki Sakumo, who was annoyed by the rumors, came to the Uchiha clan to talk to Uchiha Tokumitsu again.

"Tokumitsu-kun ......"

As soon as they met, Qimu Shuomao sighed again and again.

"Is that annoying?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu laughed and said, "We're just snatching profits from other people's bags, and these gossips are right. ”

Having said that, even if Uchiha Tokumitsu did not give Hachiki Sakushige a vaccination beforehand, but when he really faced criticism and slander, Hachiki Sakushige found that his heart was not as strong as he imagined.

"You know, my essence is for Konoha to be good......"

Sakushige Hachiki looked very depressed.

He didn't understand why he just wanted to contribute more to the village, but he had caused so much criticism.

"Because some people think that, like them, they only think about themselves for the essence of the village."

Uchiha Tokumitsu patted Hachiki Sakushige on the shoulder: "No one can satisfy everyone, even Konoha White Fang. ”

"But I didn't see my supporters come forward either......"

Although Qimu Shuomao's face was a little soothing, he still had some frustration.

"Your supporters are the silent majority of the village."

Uchiha Tokumitsu first fed a reassuring pill to Sakumo Hagi.

"It's not that they don't support you, they're just waiting and watching."

"Wait-and-see?" Qimu Shuomao was a little puzzled.

"Yes." Uchiha Tokumitsu replied affirmatively, "They want to see your determination to reform and your determination in the face of obstacles!" ”

"So what should I do?"

Qimu Shuomao asked humbly.

Although the two are very different in age, due to the difference in the height of their ideas, in most of the previous exchanges, most of the time it was Uchiha Tokumitsu who was dominant, and Hachiki Sakumo also developed the habit of asking Tokumitsu when he was indecided.

"Stand up and visit your supporters!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's tone gradually became high: "Show your attitude, explain your philosophy, and win the support you deserve!" ”

"That way, even if they won't stand up and speak for you, they won't hesitate to vote for you when the upper ninja council votes!"

"As for those who are naysay, when we succeed, all slander or criticism will naturally disappear! Only the victor is always glorious! ”

"Konoha's reform will surely open the curtain on the glorious path from the Shangnin Council!"

"As for the time of the Shangnin meeting, Shuo Maojun doesn't have to worry." Uchiha Tokumitsu patted Hachiki Shuo Shigeru on the shoulder vigorously: "Even if the high-level deliberately delays, I will unite with the upper ninja of the family and jointly launch a motion, no one can stop our unbreakable alliance!" ”

"I see......"

Hachiki Sakushige took a deep breath, "I will firmly push forward the process of new Konoha!" ”

After speaking, Qimu Shuomao bowed his head.

Uchiha Tokumitsu hurriedly got up to avoid it, and pulled up the flag Sakushige.

Then they talked about some details, and Qimu Shuomao got up to say goodbye.

After sending off Hagi Sagegeru, Uchiha Tokumitsu turned back to the living room again.

Sit down again and make the tea again.

"Great Elder, don't you want to come out yet?"

Tokumitsu Uchiha said as he stared at the wall behind him.

In an instant, the elder walked out of the dark room at the back of the living room.

Since obtaining the Uzumaki Clan's Sealing Technique Secret Book, the Uchiha Clan's Sealing Enchantment Level has improved by leaps and bounds, and after careful arrangement, even if he is as keen as Shuo Mao, he will not be able to detect that there are still people in the side room listening to this conversation.

"Deguang-kun, have you made up your mind?"

In an instant, the elder picked up the teacup and savored the tea.

"Yes." Uchiha Tokumitsu poured another cup of tea for Elder Saya, "The family needs allies, and Sakumo-kun happens to be the most suitable person." ”

"It is indeed fitting that the individual strength is strong and the reputation is prominent, but the family strength is weak."

In an instant, the elder commented objectively, and then changed his words: "But is he really suitable?" His personality is not suitable for Konoha's high-level political fighting. ”

“…… It's always a little better than our Uchiha. ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the tea set, and the afterglow was observing the expression of the Elder Moment,

"So on the family's side, how does Deguangjun want to arrange it?"

Although Uchiha Tokumitsu's words were not very good, Elder Akino didn't care.

He couldn't have known the virtues of his clansmen.

"Reform and expansion of the power of the police department."

Uchiha replied succinctly.

"Is the police department ......?"

Elder Instant remembered the Police Department Preparatory Training School that Uchiha Tokumitsu had proposed to set up.

"It's okay, anyway, I'm an old man who is out of luck, I won't interfere with what you do, and I believe you can do a good job......"

In an instant, the elder looked appreciative and got up to leave.

Uchiha Tokumitsu also hurriedly got up to send him off.

When he got out to the door, the Elder waved his hand so that Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't have to send it anymore.

"Whatever you do, I'll support you, let it go!"

"The situation can't get worse anyway."

Uchiha Tokumitsu also bowed and replied.

In an instant, the elder nodded slightly.
