Chapter 22: If You Want to Bet, At Least Show Some Sincerity.
In Konoha, there were many ninja families, large and small, but not many families could dance freely on the big stage of Konoha.
The Uchiha, Senju, and Hyuga, the three major bloodline families, were naturally the heavyweight players, overlooking the entire Konoha like three mountains.
There were also some secret technique families that banded together to resist the three mountains that were pressing on many ninja clans, such as the Ino-Shika-Cho three families, who had made an alliance from generation to generation to help each other.
The Inuzuka clan and the Aburame clan also had a good relationship. One liked to raise dogs and the other liked to raise insects. No one knew how they got together in the first place.
Now, the dancer in the center of the stage, Tobirama Senju, was dead. The Uchiha family, who had been dancing in the background, had the opportunity to be the lead. The opportunity was still great.
Hiashi Hyuga decided that he couldn't wait any longer. He also wanted to improve, he also wanted to dance.
Early in the morning, while there were not many people, he met with Uchiha Nan.
"It's true that heroes come from young people. At such a young age, you have already shouldered the burden of the clan."
Hiashi Hyuga took the lead in complimenting. No matter what, flattery was always correct.
"Where, where. It's just that Clan Leader Tomita loves me and insists on giving me the position of clan leader. He knelt down and wouldn't get up if I didn't agree. I had no choice."
Uchiha Nan didn't understand Hiashi Hyuga's intention, so he chatted casually. Anyway, this old guy must have something up his sleeve.
They chatted for a long time, and drank several cups of tea. Hiashi Hyuga felt that he had the urge to urinate. After all, he was old, and his prostate was not good.
Why didn't he speak yet!
Could Uchiha Nan really hold his breath?
Didn't he want to be Hokage? I had already taken the initiative to come, which was enough to give the Uchiha clan face. It was time to discuss the Hokage issue.
Uchiha Nan looked at Hiashi Hyuga's body swaying left and right, and his legs slightly rubbing. He was obviously restless.
Uchiha Nan was very young, and his prostate was at its peak!
So he smiled slightly.
"One more cup?"
"No, no."
Hiashi Hyuga shook his head repeatedly. He didn't come here to drink tea today.
"Brother Nan, I'm a few years older than you. Let me call you that, it sounds intimate."
"It's time to say something. Now that Lord Tobirama is dead, Konoha is leaderless. It's time for someone who is promising, responsible, and powerful to stabilize the situation."
Hiashi Hyuga spoke sincerely, as if he was going to go through fire and water for Konoha. At the end, he raised his eyebrows at Uchiha Nan, signaling Uchiha Nan to continue.
Hiashi Hyuga thought very clearly. Although the Hyuga family was one of the three major ninja clans in Konoha, it still lacked top-level combat power. It was estimated that it had no chance of becoming Hokage. However, it might be able to go further and fight for more benefits for the family.
Everyone was very poor now, and the family was having a hard time.
When the cannons fired, ten thousand taels of gold were spent. After fighting for so long, Konoha borrowed so much money from the family. When the war reparations and the funds allocated by the Land of Fire arrived, they would have to be divided. If you eat one more bite, I will have one less bite.
The family was waiting for money!
The promises made by Tobirama Senju in the past were no different from being invalidated. He had to communicate with the next Hokage first.
He didn't consider the Senju family. He was putting a hot face on a cold ass. Uchiha Nan was stronger in terms of strength, but the Uchiha was weaker in terms of political influence. After all, Tobirama Senju had suppressed them for so many years.
It was better to give charcoal in snowy weather than to add flowers to brocade. It was a very good time to invest at this time!
If the two families joined forces, they would definitely win the Hokage!
"Tsk, Brother Takuma, you don't know that the Second Hokage had already decided on the candidate before he died. It's Hiruzen Sarutobi."
Uchiha Nan sipped his tea and looked at Hiashi Hyuga with a strange expression. He had already spread this news.
What?
Hiruzen Sarutobi?
To be honest, Hiashi Hyuga had never paid attention to Hiruzen Sarutobi. Where did this guy come from? Did he really think that he could fly up the branch and become a phoenix by climbing up to Tobirama Senju?
When Tobirama Senju was alive, he could give Hiruzen Sarutobi some face. Now that Tobirama was dead.
Sorry, who are you?
I'm the noble head of the bloodline family. Don't touch me!
"Brother Nan, don't joke."
"Who doesn't know that they abandoned the Hokage and ran back alone? Who knows if the news they brought back is true or false?"
Hiashi Hyuga sneered, not taking Hiruzen Sarutobi to heart at all.
"Brother Nan, don't you want to improve?"
Hiashi Hyuga revealed his true intention and took the lead in stating his intention.
"We are not saying that we won't do anything about improvement, but we are not saying how we will do it."
"If you don't want to, it's not that we are saying that we can do it. We can find a way."
"..."
Uchiha Nan spoke without expressing his attitude. He finally understood that Hiashi Hyuga was here to bet. He had been standing with the Senju family and now wanted to change his family.
It was estimated that he originally wanted to let himself speak first and take the initiative in the conversation. He had to stretch him out.
Good, good, good!!!
Hiashi Hyuga was amazed. People could still talk like this. Uchiha Nan, you are born to eat politics!
This trip was right!
"The Hokage of Konoha, the Senju family has already produced two. I think it's time for the Uchiha."
"You!"
"Uchiha Nan is the peaceful Hokage of Konoha!"
"The Hokage who brings peace to Konoha!"
Hiashi Hyuga decided not to go around in circles and directly stated his intention.
That's right. These people who play politics are all dirty. They go around in circles. Can't they be more direct?
"Do you really think so?"
"Of course, what my brother said is from the bottom of my heart!"
Hiashi Hyuga's face was full of sincerity. With the Uchiha who had the Mangekyo Sharingan, plus the power of the Hyuga family, he didn't know how to lose.
"Then happy cooperation?"
Uchiha Nan finally smiled, stretched out his palm, and planned to form an alliance with the Hyuga family. Hiashi Hyuga had already taken the initiative to come to him. He couldn't push the Hyuga family out.
Taking the position of Hokage of Konoha was just the first step of a long journey. The real difficulty was still behind.
He would always have to cooperate with the Hyuga family in the future.
"Happy cooperation."
Hiashi Hyuga shook Uchiha Nan's hand and happily agreed. Today's goal was completely settled.
The rest was the final greeting. The two guys shamelessly started to compliment each other.
"The greatest Third Hokage in the future!"
"The only choice to lead Konoha to prosperity."
"The most visionary Hyuga clan leader."
"..."
Anyway, bragging didn't cost money, so just praise. You praise me, I praise you, and the reputation comes?
(In another world, Hiruzen Sarutobi, known as the strongest Hokage, silently gave a thumbs up.)
Finally, Hiashi Hyuga left Uchiha Nan's house satisfied. Before leaving, he asked Uchiha Nan to come to the Hyuga house as a guest when he had time.
After Hiashi Hyuga left, Uchiha Nan walked towards the Uchiha Police Department. Today was his first day at work as the clan leader. He couldn't be late.
By the way, he was promoted to the chief of the Uchiha Police Department!
