Chapter 168 Sarutobi Hiruzen Is Planning

Jiraiya finished writing the detailed battle report of Konoha and Sand Village in the afternoon, and then a summoning technique was sent to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Then Sarutobi Hiruzen lit a pack of cigarettes in a daze.

One person rushed into the battle and killed more than 50 people in seconds. Flying Thunder God killed more than 130 people in the first battle, and the 5,000-man Sand Village army took the initiative to retreat.

One person, one village!

"He learned the Flying Thunder God Technique?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was at a loss.

He, all the people of the Sarutobi clan, and all the disciples of the second generation did not learn the technique, but he learned it?

Why?

Moreover

Looking through the battle report, Sarutobi Hiruzen inexplicably felt that this technique was stronger when used by Minato than the second generation?

No, this is not an illusion, the fact is like this.

Sarutobi Hiruzen analyzed it and then understood the reason.

The second generation majored in water escape, and water escape and Flying Thunder God are not very good at matching.

But Minato's main skill is wind escape, and when he wraps the wind escape chakra around his hands and feet, it immediately becomes a deadly weapon.

Minato's attainments in Flying Thunder God may not be better than the second generation, but his skills are coordinated and systematic, so that judging from his performance in the war alone, Minato is stronger!

"If it were me." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about how to deal with Flying Thunder God, and after thinking about it, he found that he had no way!

Although his physical skills are strong, according to Jiraiya, Minato can fight Jiraiya evenly without Flying Thunder God.

Minato may have suppressed his strength.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen's physical skills are not much stronger than Jiraiya.

If he uses Flying Thunder God, he may not be able to take down Minato.

Although he still has a move of Vajra Ruyi Rod, this skill is used to deal with large targets. It has strong attack power but slow speed. It may not be able to touch Minato at all when fighting against him.

Ninjutsu?

He is proficient in five types of ninjutsu, and has a move of five types of large continuous bombs.

However, the same problem still exists. No matter how powerful a ninjutsu is, it is useless if it cannot hit anyone.

As for the sealing technique and barrier technique, it is even more ridiculous. If no one is holding back, there is no way to seal and catch a ninja who can fly the Thunder God!

Sneak attack?

Come on, Minato’s strongest point is not the Thunder God, but his super fast nerve reflex!

This nerve reflex may be stronger than the normal three magatama. Who can sneak attack him?

If a fight breaks out, Sarutobi Hiruzen may face the situation that all his ninjutsu cannot hit Minato, and Minato will die as long as he cuts him once.

As for using defensive ninjutsu to resist, this is even more unrealistic.

Continuous defensive ninjutsu consumes chakra. Unless you can continue it for 24 hours a day, you will be stabbed as soon as the chakra is used up.

Pretend to use up chakra to trick Minato?

Still the same problem. Even if he is fooled, he has a fast nerve reflex and can fly the Thunder God, so he can still run away and wait for the next opportunity.

Moreover, this trick can't fool Minato.

Because he can also sense chakra

You don't know until you analyze it, and you'll be shocked when you analyze it.

Minato is a perfect ninja with a complete system, no dead angles, no weaknesses, and all-round strength!

"How did he grow up under my nose?" Sarutobi Hiruzen himself was a little confused. You know, Jiraiya often reports to him about Minato's situation!

"Oh, it's Jiraiya!" Sarutobi Hiruzen woke up, because Jiraiya's praise for Minato was too corny and exaggerated, and Jiraiya himself was not in tune, so Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously thought that his words were all bragging, and then unconsciously underestimated Minato.

Another problem is that Minato has completed Flying Thunder God, but he didn't tell anyone until he showed it on the battlefield.

This is actually understandable. The personal information of ninjas is confidential, and it is normal not to tell others.

However, Flying Thunder God is a forbidden technique of the village. I taught you. Shouldn't you tell me when you learned it?

"This kid doesn't look as sunny as he seems!"

While being happy about the victory of the war, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also thinking about the possible consequences of this incident.

Stopping a war by himself would make Minato gain a very high reputation in the village. Coupled with the support of Jiraiya, the second generation's iconic ninjutsu, his son could not compete with him at all.

His competitors had to be found in the previous generation, such as Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade.

Even the previous generation did not have such a luxurious record as him.

The three ninjas of Konoha fought against one country, which was still a small country. Minato fought against one village alone, which was a big country!

After thinking about it, if he stepped down, then the only one who could take the position of the fourth generation Hokage might be Minato!

"Alas!" Originally, he just wanted to find someone to compete with Orochimaru, but he didn't expect him to be really good!

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and barely accepted the fact that Minato might become the fourth generation Hokage.

There was no need to care about the losses that had already occurred, and the only thing left was to stop the losses.

First of all, the Anbu must be in their own hands, and Namikaze Minato is a lone man, and there is no one of his own to fill the new Anbu.

It doesn't matter if the jonin class is given up, because the jonin class has no power to speak of. The only way for the Hokage to control the jonin in the jonin class is to let them lead the genin.

Other jonin are very free.

In addition, there is the most important task allocation power.

This power may seem insignificant, but it is actually the core of all Konoha's affairs.

At its core, the task allocation power is financial power.

All the ninjas in the village, big and small, rely on this to make a living. Naturally, whoever has the power to allocate tasks will be the actual Hokage.

What? You mean the funding that the Fire Country Daimyo gave to Konoha?

We have divided this money among our major families. Is there any problem?

In addition, there is no need to talk about Konoha Hospital, the Intelligence Department, etc., but the problem is that Minato Namikaze has no one!

If there is no one, we have to use our people. If we use our people, who will control this village? Needless to say!

From this point of view, Minato is actually quite suitable to be Hokage, unlike Orochimaru. Although he is also a lonely man, he has many loyal subordinates!

After studying how to control power, the rest is to take back the power.

Even if all departments are in their own hands, as long as Minato sits in the position of Hokage, everything is likely to be subverted.

For example, the Hyuga clan has also produced many medical ninjas. What if Minato cooperates with the Hyuga clan?

For example, the Yamanaka clan can do things like torture and interrogation, so can't the Uchiha clan do it?

The Uchiha clan is crazy about becoming Hokage!

As long as Minato opens his mouth and is willing to accept the Uchiha clan as a disciple, do you think the Uchiha clan will be willing to be Minato's dog!

"Huh?" Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes lit up. Yes, this is also a problem, and it must be blocked in advance.

If the Uchiha clan really has a genius who worships Minato, it will be a real problem.

It's better to find an Uchiha first and shut up the Uchiha.

Minato has made great contributions and can be promoted to a jonin. Isn't there an Uchiha in the ninja school who is stupid and dumb and has poor talent? It's just right to be assigned to Minato.

It would be even better if this kid died. The Uchiha clan and Minato would directly become enemies.

However

Sarutobi Hiruzen calculated that the child seemed to be only in the third grade, and there were still two years before graduation?

It's a pity that Minato won too quickly. If the battle was more intense, the students of the ninja school could graduate early.

Let's put this matter aside for now and think about how to make Minato abdicate.

Minato is the Hokage. To make Minato abdicate, the Hokage must have done something that angered the heavens and the people.

For example, the Nine-Tails?

Kushina is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. The seal will be weakened when the Jinchuriki gives birth. If the Nine-Tails escapes at this time, it will wreak havoc in the village.

Isn't this a reason for Minato to abdicate?

It's just right that he can change another Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Otherwise, as the Hokage, he also has a wife who is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. It's simply a powerful combination, too terrifying!

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and sat back in his chair. It's worthy of me. Everything is under control.

What's the idiom, the wisdom is in hand?

I think I shouldn't be called Doctor of Ninjutsu. I should be Zhuge Liang of the Ninja World!

"Oh, there's one more thing!" Sarutobi Hiruzen spread out the report, only paying attention to Minato Namikaze's combat power. It took Sarutobi Hiruzen a long time to realize that Jiraiya also mentioned one thing.

There are towns that have formed their own militia?

How can this be possible!

You form a militia to drive away wild boar bandits by yourselves, how can we ninjas live!

Why can't these civilians of the Land of Fire understand the hard work of the ninjas!

"Go and ask Elder Danzo to come over!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said softly.

No one responded, but Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that someone had already gone to ask.

This is the power of the Hokage, calling the wind and rain, and controlling all living beings.

Who is willing to give up?
