Chapter 778
He didn't even shy away from the fact that the other party was a rain ninja.
You must know that even though he is one of the Sannin who is the direct disciple of the Third Generation, it is very taboo to rashly accept three students from other villages.
Jiraiya didn't tell Sarutobi Hiruzen about it after returning to Konoha, only Tsunade and Orochimaru knew.
Since they are not fools, they will not really tell Sarutobi-sensei these things, but now that Konan has come to find him, he will not hide.
Jiraiya, who considers himself a hero, very calmly started to greet Konan after a long absence.
"Konan, you are becoming more and more beautiful now. By the way, Nagato, ah no, is Yahiko here?"
Jiraiya then thought about it and thought that he had already emphasized the specialness of the Immortal Eyes to the other party, so Nagato would probably not come to Konoha.
As a third-generation disciple, I know very well how sinful the darkness in Konoha Village is under the firelight.
Whenever the Immortal Eye reveals any information, Konoha will be willing to sever ties with him to obtain these eyes.
Because those eyes are worth it.
And his teacher Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen will definitely use the will of fire to persuade him and ask him to think about the overall situation of the village.
This kind of overall view that goes against the pride I hold in my heart has appeared several times.
But he was also an emotional person, and he had neither the means nor the confidence to run away from the village as freely and freely as Tsunade, so he was always stuck in a painful position.
The matter of becoming Hokage has been deleted from his mind, and Konoha Village needs a more capable and sunny successor.
Minato truly understood the thoughts in the firelight of the Will of Fire. Under the rays of the little sun, the darkness will gradually fade away, and Konoha Village will usher in new life.
This is something he cannot do and can only entrust to his disciples.
"I am the representative of Yuren Village. The two of them are still staying in the village to carry out construction."
Hearing Konan's explanation, Jiraiya nodded seriously. Yahiko did have a leadership temperament.
Standing in front of the bookstore and chatting was definitely not a good choice. The clerk behind him had a murderous look in his eyes, so he took Xiaonan and left.
His kennel in Konoha was obviously uninhabitable. As an old man who went out to collect materials all year round and only came back during the war, he never lived in the village.
Usually he stayed in the hot spring street, and occasionally he would have a meal with his disciples.
But now it would be a bit crazy to take Xiaonan to a hot spring street or some places where the service industry gathers...
Jiraiya, who was a little embarrassed in front of his disciples, decided to take her to find Minato to have a meal together.
"Let's go, I'll take you to recognize my senior brother."
The Fourth Hokage? Really curious.
Konan had no other opinions about the teacher's arrangement. Instead, she was full of curiosity and sympathy for Minato Namikaze, her senior brother.
According to Teacher Noah, the fourth generation Hokage is destined to have a tragic ending after he takes over.
Because if the Yondaime really cares about all the Konoha villagers, he will need to extract decent benefits from the traditional ninja clan in order to satisfy more civilians.
Because as more and more ninjas appear in the civilian class, the conflict of interests between the two will become greater and greater. It is impossible to eliminate this real conflict of interests by relying on personality charm alone.
If he were at the ninja level, he would just maintain the status quo.
But the reality under the current situation is so unbearable. Young people are like the vigorous sun. Will he turn a blind eye to the hidden evils?
Not to mention the inhumane experiments and crimes secretly committed by Konoha. Just the oppression of the lower class by the same race with clearly defined classes is a trigger for the future.
unless……
At that time, Yahiko asked Teacher Noah what to do?
Teacher Noah said this.
The fastest way is to use power beyond the entire ninja world to suppress any objections like the first Hokage did. Then naturally the whole village can do whatever they want with it.
Even the four countries can be subdued, let alone these ninja clans who are united.
When Uchiha Madara was here, no one dared to explode. The two heroes really did everything they wanted to do.
Or like the Second-generation Hokage, he uses ultra-high political tactics to continuously divide and disintegrate the power of the ninja clan itself.
Then we will vigorously develop the transition of the civilian class to dilute the proportion of ninjas, vigorously study the methods of confrontation within the boundaries of blood inheritance, and finally encourage intermarriage and other means.
If the Second Hokage could live forever, then Konoha might really be managed by him as impeccably as an iron barrel.
Yahiko asked what the Third Hokage's method was?
Lift some of the suppression of the ninja forces and form a unified class to support the rule of the Hokage family.
Finally, the will of fire was used to form a bond of inheritance within the village to unify the thoughts of most of the civilian class and the lower-level ninja clan.
Then use Danzo's roots to shock him. Although the method of one positive and one negative is not as antelope-horned as the second generation, it can still be maintained.
It's just that this will cause greater internal losses. If there are external forces, it will suffer big losses, such as the 3rd Ninja War.
What about the Yondaime?
It will be difficult for the fourth generation to do anything if they come to power. Because the power of the Elder Council was unprecedentedly large, the Hokage's authority was repeatedly compressed.
The industrial layout and regional division of the Ninja clan have also been completed, and there is not much room for them to gain a foothold.
The last resort to break the situation is the Uchiha clan. Conquer the Uchiha, and then use this ninja clan to balance Hinata, Inokacho and so on.
The main difficulty is that the mess left by Sarutobi Hiruzen was too outrageous. In the early days, in order to stabilize his position as Hokage, he had to divide his power to a certain extent. But if the fourth generation comes to power, he will find that there are a few more bosses on his head.
If the means are not enough, the transition of his power will take a long time. If something unexpected happens again, you may not live until you get all the rights.
This is Noah's opinion. He is a bit weak in strength, not very courageous, and not very good at evading his mouth.
In short, according to Teacher Noah's words, the internal situation that senior brother Namikaze Minato will face will be very tricky and complicated.
Along the way, we arrived at a small courtyard while chatting.
"Minato, are you home!!"
boom! The door was violently opened.
"Jiraiya-sensei, why did you go to the hot spring street again?! Master Sandaime specifically asked me to tell you not to... um... your... daughter?"
Chapter 22 Xiaonan’s fire transmission failed
The red-haired woman suddenly paused mid-sentence.
There was a little girl following Mr. Jiraiya!
Although she always dislikes the behavior of the wretched uncle, she should not be so depraved as to kidnap a little girl and come back as a ninja from the Land of Rain...
I still have to save some face for Mr. Jiraiya.
As for the female ninja in the Rain Ninja Village who looks quite cute, it is most likely not someone's illegitimate daughter who came to visit her.
But half of what he said already made Jirai lose face.
When he was in the Land of Rain, he had never been to a place like Fengqing Street.
One is that the child is still young and he is not so hungry that he would abandon three little devils to get materials. The second is that the service industries of the Rain Country are all located in the capital of the Rain Country, so it is troublesome to go there.
Therefore, he did not show his obscene side in daily life, not to mention that the masterpiece book has not been written yet, and Jiraiya's name is still very orthodox and strong.
Xiaonan and his three disciples still don't know that Toad Immortal's personal style focuses on one color.
This time the air was filled with the smell of embarrassment, and the Immortal who had not yet evolved to the later stage felt a bit social.
Fortunately, a young man with blond hair came out of the house to smooth things over.
"Teacher Jiraiya is here just in time. I have something to ask you."
Little Taiyang is so heart-warming, and he saves face for his teacher in such an understatement.
To be able to become the brightest representative of the new generation, his high emotional intelligence is really not an exaggeration.
He discovered his significant other at a young age and began to pursue her. He won the beauty's heart with a heroic move.
He always respects his teacher and cares about the ninja clan and civilians equally.
No wonder Jiraiya was so proud of him, even more than ten years later, he kept mentioning it.
After that, they exchanged a few brief greetings and then went into the room to talk in detail.
Minato and a curious Kushina also chased after him.
"Hmm~·This is one of the disciples I accepted in the Kingdom of Rain. Her name is Xiaonan. She should be considered your junior sister."
"Hello, junior sister Xiaonan."
Namikaze Minato still greeted Konan very gently, and did not show any strangeness because of the identity of the other person's rain ninja.
With this level of identity, the relationship between the families became warmer. After all, they all learned from the same family.
After learning that Xiaonan came to watch the ceremony as a representative of Yu Ninja Village, everyone thought it was normal. Now there are many representatives from various countries.
Representatives of the four major countries arrived in Konoha a week in advance. There was no grand finale appearance at all, but he went out for a walk from time to time, which made the ANBU people anxious.
Afterwards, they had a casual meal together, and Kushina gave up on her reserve as a quasi-Hokage wife.
He patted Konan on the shoulder boldly and said that she would be the one to protect her in Konoha Village from now on, using the name of Blood Red Pepper as a guarantee.
The Uzumaki clan's perception ability is very strong, and they instinctively feel that the other party does not have any malicious intent.
Minato and Jiraiya rolled their eyes, it was best not to pull Kushina casually.
Her identity is even more sensitive than Namikaze Minato, and if she communicates too much with ninjas from other villages, it will actually hinder Konan.
Elders like the Sandaime and Danzo would really not let go of any ninja who tried to get close to the Jinchuriki.
Even after Minato officially takes over as the fourth generation, the four or five people in the elders still have the ability to influence Konoha.
During the chat, Konan also talked about the recent developments of Nagato and Yahiko. The Akatsuki organization has completely established its foothold and is now in a deep cooperation with the Rain Ninja Village.
Jiraiya usually doesn't look serious, but he still sees some situations very clearly.
"Sanshouyu Hanzo is probably not that easy to talk to."
"Hanzo-sama is a very kind person. Although he is getting older, his thoughts are becoming more and more open-minded.
Nagato and Yahiko slowly moved into Amegakure Village under Hanzo-sama's strong invitation.
It also has great trust in young people. The Xiao organization is constantly helping the people of the Kingdom of Rain rebuild their homes with high amounts of funds, so that everyone's lives can be on the right track.
Recently, Hanzo-sama also created a Will of Rain in our country to show his determination. "
After hearing the Will of Rain, Jiraiya was dumbfounded, why was this so different from the Hanzo in his memory.
There are thousands of Hanzos and so on... Is this old rival's painting style affected by an illusion?
How does it sound more advanced than Will of Fire?
And Namikaze Minato was even more energetic. He didn't expect the leader of the outer village to have such a high level of awareness.
It hit his mark right away. People who like perseverance and endurance will have the least resistance to such words.
"Junior Sister Xiaonan, if you finish writing Hanzo's Will of Rain, can you send me a copy?"
"No problem at all."
After that, he accidentally talked about the simple idea of the initial goal of having everyone fed, and Minato was even more amazed.
"Ah, this is such a great ideal."
Namikaze Minato is slowly handing over the responsibilities of the Hokage, and also has a general understanding of the living environment of ordinary people outside Konoha Village.
People who can live in Konoha Village are people with few assets and don't have to worry about food.
However, the living standards of most farmers in the outside world really depend on the sky as well as people.
The ideal of feeding everyone in the Land of Rain has gone beyond the responsibilities of the ninja organization.
"How can this be done?"
Xiao Nan explained the land distribution matter calmly.
Lord Hanzo personally went to Daming Castle to hold friendly negotiations with the nobles, and finally handed over the land to us for management.
As long as the farmland is fairly distributed to each farmer according to their needs, they then pay a fixed tax and finally keep their own part.
After briefly talking about the progress of the Rain Country, Minato Namikaze gave up on the idea of implementing this plan.
This is not something that a Hokage can do, it is something that even the great names of the Fire Country would find difficult to do.
