Chapter 54 I, Xia Yu, took over the position of Guoying

Konoha Village, Uchiha clan land.

At this time, Xia Yu was enjoying the joy of his wedding with his first and second generation wives. …

……

At the entrance of the clan land, Sasuke was still setting off fireworks by himself, having a lot of fun.

After a while, the Third Hokage came.

Behind him, there was a group of masked Anbu ninjas.

"Huh? Lord Hokage, you are here..."

Seeing the Hokage arrive, Sasuke quickly put down the fireworks in his hand and ran towards the Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen gently rubbed Sasuke's head and asked kindly: "Sasuke, where is your brother Xia Yu?"

"He is having a baby!"

"Huh? I heard that he is getting married?"

"Yes, it's not that marriage and having a baby can't be done at the same time. Anyway, they don't interfere with each other."

"Uh..."

This obviously touched on Sarutobi Hiruzen's blind spot in knowledge. It took him a long time to react. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Young people nowadays are really..."

After envying for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Sasuke: "Sasuke, since Xia Yu is having a baby, it's not convenient for me to go in directly. Can you call him out? I have something urgent to do with him."

"Yeah, okay." Sasuke would naturally not refuse the words of the Hokage, and turned around and ran to the clan land.

After a while, Sasuke led the disheveled Xia Yu to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hokage-sama, I didn't know you would come. I hope you will forgive me for my poor hospitality." Xia Yu greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen while tidying up her wrinkled clothes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled faintly: "It's okay, Xia Yu. I can see that you are very hard-working. You are not idle during the day on the day of the big day..."

"Time is so precious~ In order to get the Uchiha population back to its peak as soon as possible, I will not hesitate even if I die of exhaustion!"

"Hehe... Good awareness."

"That's right, but compared with you, my day and night hard work is nothing..."

"..."

After a few simple greetings and polite words, Sarutobi Hiruzen made his purpose clear:

"Xia Yu, last night... Danzo committed suicide out of fear of crime."

"Well, I know. I heard my wives discussing this matter this morning."

"I have found out the truth about him."

"Oh?" Xia Yu raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

"Well..." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and told Xia Yu all his crimes intactly.

All the sins are true, Xia Yu acknowledges.

However, his name is not included in these sins.

Xia Yu naturally won't ask more questions. Who would take the initiative to admit his sins?

Xia Yu is just very curious. Sarutobi Hiruzen came here to say so much. What exactly does he want to do?

"Xia Yu, after knowing these things, I feel heartbroken. Because of Danzo alone, the Uchiha clan has suffered so much. I think it is necessary to compensate your clan."

Ouch?

Xia Yu was stunned.

How could this old fox be so kind? What on earth is he trying to do?

Xia Yu neither agreed nor refused, and chose to continue listening.

Looking at the increasingly prosperous Uchiha clan, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed:

"Money, I guess the Uchiha should not be short of it now... So, I want to compensate you with something more practical."

"Hokage-sama, what do you mean...?"

"Power, I want to give you real power."

"..." Xia Yu was stunned again when he heard this.

Without waiting for him to speak, Sarutobi Hiruzen said directly to the Anbu ninjas behind him: "Show your support."

"Yes!"

The Anbu ninjas all knelt on one knee and shouted respectfully to Xia Yu: "Sir!"

What the hell?

What is this operation!

Are they asking me to lead the Anbu?

Xia Yu was getting more and more confused. He really couldn't understand what Sarutobi Hiruzen meant.

"Hokage, this won't do! The Anbu is your direct unit, how can I..."

"No, these people are not Anbu, they are all members of the Root Organization." Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of smoke and said slowly:

"Danzo is dead, and the Root Organization is leaderless, so I want... you to become the leader of the Root Organization."

"In addition, there is a vacancy for the position of senior advisor beside me, Xia Yu, you are absolutely qualified in terms of strength, and other aspects can also be cultivated slowly. If you don't mind, come to work by my side, and all matters that Danzo is responsible for will be handed over to you."

"You should not be dissatisfied with this generous compensation. Starting tomorrow, you can officially go to work. You have a place in the leadership team of Konoha. Uchiha Fugaku didn't have this treatment before."

"Xia Yu, this is me, my trust in you, the Uchiha clan..."

"..."

There is nothing wrong with lying to others, but it is impossible to hide it from Xia Yu...

Xia Yu finally figured out Sarutobi Hiruzen's purpose.

"Tsk tsk... So you want me to be your second generation pot shadow!"

Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart at Sarutobi Hiruzen's cunningness.

He obviously wanted to find someone to take the blame, but he said it in such a high-sounding way, and even named it "generous compensation"!

In the eyes of others, this compensation is indeed generous enough!

The position of senior consultant of Konoha represents the supreme honor, strength, qualifications, and achievements, all of which are indispensable.

At Xia Yu's current young age, it can be said that he will work 20 years less.

But who can understand the true meaning of this position?

I'm afraid only Sarutobi Hiruzen and Xia Yu can understand.

Xia Yu couldn't stop sneering in his heart.

Hehe...

Hiruzen, this trick of yours is really interesting...

Xia Yu wanted to refuse, but then he thought that only by holding a higher power in his hands could he overthrow Sarutobi Hiruzen as soon as possible, let him show his true face in front of everyone, and let everyone recognize his true face.

Nabekage?

This job is accepted!

It's not certain who the Nabekage is!

Hiruzen, I admit that you are very strong, but I have a system and a script. As long as I have time to develop, what can you use to fight me!

"..."

Xia Yu immediately agreed: "Hokage-sama, I am very honored to be the senior consultant of the village, but... since you believe in me, then I am willing to challenge my limits."

"Very good, very good!" Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction and patted Xia Yu on the shoulder: "I knew you could do it! Okay, the Root Organization is handed over to you..."

"Thank you, Hokage-sama..."

"Well..."

The two exchanged a few more words, and Sarutobi Hiruzen left alone.

His little plan in his mind had been achieved, and there was no need to stay here and waste time.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen's back completely disappeared, Xia Yu looked at the rows of Root ninjas kneeling on one knee in front of him and said softly: "Get up."

"Yes!"

"When there is no mission, you can move freely. Okay, let's disband first."

After throwing this sentence, Xia Yu turned around and prepared to return to the tribe to continue to build the tribe.

However, this group of Root ninjas still stood there motionless, with no intention of leaving at all.

Xia Yu was a little confused: "Eh? Why don't you disband?"

The leading Root Ninja took off his mask and stuck out his tongue: "Master Xia Yu, please cast a seal for us! Danzo is dead, the seal on our tongues has disappeared, you need to cast it again."

"Stop! We'll talk about the seal later, put your tongue back for me first, you're a grown man, I'm not used to this..."
