Chapter 310 310 The Second Hokage, Minister of Ninja Department

As always, the second tallest floor of the Konoha Hokage Building, the highest conference room.

The person who had sat in the Hokage's chair for fifteen years was no longer here.

Although Senju Hashirama's last words stated that Senju Hashirama would indirectly take over as the Second Hokage.

But the Hokage system is not the emperor's autocratic rule after all, and his last words of Senju Hashirama cannot be said to be absolute.

Therefore, Senju Tobirama is still sitting in the position of the elder of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the position of Hokage's main seat is currently on hold.

Opposite him, Izuna is still sitting in the position of the elder of the Ministry of Education, but in fact, the power he holds has surpassed that of himself, the "elder of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"The position of the Second Hokage is not the final say of the Konoha family. We must go to the Daming Mansion and discuss with many representatives of the Fire Country's top political leaders before we can finalize it."

Senju Tobirama was the first to speak, and he did not immediately claim to be the "Second Hokage". This was a smart thing about him.

Everyone nodded, but their eyes were mainly focused on Senju Tobirama and Uchiha Izuna.

"I decided to integrate the Guard Department, Investigation Department, Security Department, and Ninja Management Department to form a brand new department, the [Ninja Department]."

Izuna finally spoke, but as soon as she spoke, what she said made the expressions of the collective Konoha executives change.

Quan Nai's eyes swept over everyone in front of the conference table one by one, "Who agrees and who opposes?"

Nowadays, many of the older generation from when Konoha was first founded, quite a few have retired to the second line, or even gone to the west.

Except for people like Hinata Chisato and Sarutobi Sasuke who were very young when they took office, the other family representatives have been replaced by a new generation of clan leaders in their mid-twenties to forties.

They all grew up under the influence of Uchiha Izuna's powerful and intimidating power.

No one dared to refute Senna's proposal.

Senju Yoma, the medical director who was over sixty years old, twitched his beard and couldn't help but said: "Izuna... Elder, what is the significance of the [Ninja Department] you want to create? What are the duties you perform? What? With all due respect, I think Konoha's management system is already quite complete."

Izuna glanced at him and explained: "This is mainly for the convenience of management. The Security Department, Investigation Department, Ninja Management Department, and Security Department are all troops that will operate on the front line daily, and they are also members of the Konoha ninja sect. department."

"Integration will make management easier. Currently, the Hyuga clan in charge of the security department and the Kaguya clan, which is the main combat force of the security department, are scattered. This way the execution is not high, and they themselves are also very hard. It is better to centralize and manage them in a unified way. , is there anything wrong with it?”

Quan Nai said sideways.

"Sama Izuna is right!"

As soon as Izuna finished speaking, the new leader of the Kaguya clan who replaced the retired Kaguya Takeri couldn't wait to say.

Last year, in order to weaken Uchiha Izuna's military power, Senju Hashirama sent many members of the Kaguya clan to that ghost place on the eastern coast. They had long wanted to come back.

This is a God-given opportunity!

"What do other people think?"

Quan Nai ignored the young clan leader who was less than thirty years old and asked the others.

"Same, agree."

"Attached, seconded, Master Izuna is right."

"It seems to make sense, and I, the Inuzuka clan, don't have any objections."

Seeing that the representatives of the major families expressed their agreement, the Senju Tobirama, Senju Yojian and other members of the Senju clan in the conference room frowned.

If this so-called [Ninja Department] is established, the minister will have extremely high power that is not inferior to that of Hokage.

It goes without saying who the minister is.

"Okay, now half of the people in the top decision-making group have expressed their agreement,"

Without even waiting for Senju Tobirama to speak, when more than half of the people agreed, Izuna stood up and made the final decision, "The creation of the Ninja Department will be carried out immediately. Kaguya, Hinata, and Hatake, as the main core combat forces of these departments, will come early tomorrow morning. Meet in person and assign responsibilities.”

After hearing this, Senju Tobirama and the other new generation clan leaders of the three major families secretly glanced at Senju Tobirama with a bitter look on their faces, knowing that this move would definitely anger Senju Tobirama, the second generation Hokage.

But for now, he could only clasp his fists to express his agreement, "Yes, Minister Izuna."

"Ise,"

Quan Nai said again.

"exist."

Uchiha Ise, who was standing behind Izuna, took a step forward and said.

"Tomorrow, you will take my place and go to the Daming Mansion with the Senju Clan. You will have a good discussion with the Fire Country political leaders about the succession of the Second Hokage."

After finishing speaking, Quan Nai stood up and said: "Okay, the meeting is over, let's go back."

go back?

As the next Hokage, Senju Tobirama hasn't said a few words yet.

Everyone couldn't help but complain secretly in their hearts, but they still obeyed Quan Nai's words and exited the conference room.

No one dared to say a word to Senju Tobirama, the second generation Hokage.

Five minutes later, only a dozen ninjas from the Senju clan were left in the huge conference room.

"This Uchiha Izuna is too much!"

The quasi-kage level Senju Ren was very angry, "He is clearly trying to consolidate power for himself, Tobirama Nidaime, we can't let him get what he wants!"

Everyone can predict how much power Uchiha Izuna, as the minister, will have if this so-called "Ninja Department" is really established!

"It can't be stopped,"

The veteran Senju Yoma said in a deep voice: "Now that two of the three heroes are gone, Uchiha Izuna's influence has exceeded our expectations. The only thing we can do is to compete with him for power, and The power cannot be taken away from him.”

"Master Yangjian, what do you mean?"

Senjuren and the others immediately looked at the old man who was over sixty years old with surprised expressions.

"Didn't he gather the Hinata, Kaguya, and Hatake clans?"

Senju Youjian said in a deep voice: "Immediately tell Sarutobi, Shimura, and Inokacho in secret."

The other Senju ninjas gasped, they were trying to cause division in the village!

But this may be fate. Uchiha and Senju are ultimately incompatible.

"Master Tobirama, what do you think?"

Senju Yangjian turned to Qianju Tojian again and asked.

Qianju Tobijian frowned. To be honest, this really went against the original intention of the Will of Fire entrusted to him and his elder brother.

But...it seems that I have no other choice.

Senju Tobirama comforted himself like this in his heart.

Thinking of this, Senju Tobirama finally nodded heavily in agreement.
