As a member of the Hokage, one dares not be a loyal subject of Konoha!

Perhaps a miracle can really happen?

Chapter 107 Sarutobi Loses His Job Again, and the Uchiha Tyranny Begins

.

In the large conference room, as Hinata Himo presented the main points of the meeting, his subordinates below began to brainstorm.

The moon has limited resources, and even many daily supplies need to be transported from Earth.

The Otsutsuki clan is used to living on the moon for thousands of years, but once the novelty wears off, the Hyuga clan members will definitely feel that the ninja world is better.

According to Hinata Hiromasa's final plan, after establishing a firm foothold in the ninja world, the moon would be more suitable as a sacred place, providing the safest training and evolution ground for his clansmen, serving as a final retreat.

"Mr. Nichisei, in my humble opinion, choosing the Land of Fields as a foothold is very suitable in the early stages."

The first to speak was Orochimaru, who is now Hyuga Orochimaru, so there's nothing wrong with her attending this meeting.

Moreover, after she used the Reanimation Jutsu to become Snake Lady, it is said that she is very much in line with Ushima Gintoki's aesthetic. Just before the meeting started, Ushima Gintoki tried to get Snake Lady's opinion, but was directly rejected by Snake Lady with sharp words.

Miss Snake stated that she would dedicate her life to the future of the Hyuga clan.

“I once established a laboratory in the Land of Rice Fields. The daimyo there is easy to control. If it is managed properly, establishing a ninja village is not difficult.”

This is Orochimaru's experience. In fact, if he hadn't been recruited by Hyuga Hiromasa into the Hyuga clan to serve as the head of the research department, he would already be working on establishing a ninja village.

“Minister Snake, you misunderstand. The clan leader means to establish a nation, not a ninja village. These are not the same concept.”

The speaker was an acquaintance, the elder whom Hyuga Himaru had persuaded with reason a long time ago, named Hyuga Aoto.

Even today, he still feels like he's living in a dream. This audacious clan leader actually made a decision that went against the ancestors, and he succeeded!

The Hyuga clan members already knew what had happened in Konoha, and the Third Hokage's coercion, which involved sacrificing the Hyuga clan's bloodline, had truly hurt this Hyuga elder who always spoke of propriety and law.

Therefore, he now greatly admires Hinata Hima's foresight and has completely become a sycophant to the clan leader.

"Moreover, given the strength of the clan leader and considering the actual situation, I believe we should directly use the passage to the moon as the center and expand outwards."

He pointed to the cave area on the map that connects to the moon within the Land of Fire. That area is considered the edge of the Land of Fire, bordering the Land of Heaven.

"Why not just kill the daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields, rename the Land of Rice Fields to the Land of Yangshin, and then declare war on the Land of Fire and take over the place?"

Since he started training his lower body, Hyuga Hizashi, who has become extremely aggressive, has put forward a different opinion: since the Hyuga clan has now left Konoha and no longer belongs to the Land of Fire, they will be enemies if they meet again in the future.

There's nothing wrong with declaring war on the Land of Fire.

"Hizashi, your thinking is too extreme."

The relatively conservative Hiashi Hyuga quickly stopped his younger brother, then cautiously pointed to a spot not far below the Land of Wind.

That was the border between the Land of Wind and the Land of Rivers, an inconspicuous little country.

"Whether it's declaring war or seizing territory, relying solely on the clan chief will only make us subordinates look incompetent. Minister Snake's clan ascension plan mentioned the matter of slumber. We will be short of manpower in the early stages. The establishment of a country requires more than just territory. After the territory is determined, population, economy, and infrastructure are all very important. The safest approach is to develop cautiously and discreetly in the early stages, and then act boldly once we have established a firm foothold."

"This place is called the Land of Demons. According to my investigation, the people who live here are born with faith in the priestess who is the actual manager of the country. And what the clan chief wants to establish is a divine kingdom with faith as a prerequisite."

"Win over the priestess, transfer faith, establish a divine kingdom in this secluded location, attract outsiders step by step, and build a system sufficient to support the development of the divine kingdom. No matter how you look at it, this location is very suitable."

另外

Hiashi Hyuga glanced cautiously at the women who were listening in the distance, including Himo Hyuga's companions, and then coughed.

"Furthermore, I've heard that Miroku, the current priestess of the Land of Demons, is selecting a suitable person to conceive the next priestess."

His words were practically an open invitation for Hinata Himeko to legally date a shrine maiden.

In an instant, several resentful gazes locked onto Riji, and a chilling feeling made him break out in a cold sweat.

But to be honest, Hyuga Hiashi was really thinking about the development of his clan. He genuinely felt that the location of the Land of Demons was very suitable, with a strong local religious atmosphere. As long as the priestess cooperated enough and Hyuga Hisei staged a few scenes of saving the country, it wouldn't be difficult for him to become the ruler of a country after gaining support.

Then, using the Land of Demons as a base, gradually expanding outwards, this general direction is correct.

The discussion continues below.

Hinata Himo listened with a faint smile on his face.

Subtle, gradual influences do exist.

With his hot-tempered chieftain leading the way, the mindset of the tribespeople below is beginning to change.

Whether it was the radical Hyuga Hizashi, who thought that land should be seized directly, or the conservative Hyuga Hiashi, who wanted to take things one step at a time, neither of them felt that there was anything wrong with the Hyuga clan going to the ninja world, replacing the government of a country, and killing the daimyo.

Having witnessed the slaying of the daimyo of the Land of Fire by the clan chief Nichisei, their thinking underwent a transformation.

Orochimaru, however, who was engrossed in scientific research, didn't quite grasp the situation for the time being. He believed that the country and the ninja village were two separate entities, and that becoming a ninja village required the support of the daimyo.

It's a joke, just like what Richeng said before the meeting.

When does the strong need the weak's consent to want something from the weak?

The correct way of thinking is for the weak to please the strong and get the strong to protect them!

With his eyes closed, Hinata Himo's fingers tapped lightly on the table.

As he made his move, his subordinates below stopped discussing and waited for Hinata Himeko's final decision.

However, they had no idea how audacious Hinata was.

Since everyone's points are valid, there's no need to agonize over which option to choose; just adopt all the suggestions.

Whether it's the Land of Fields, the Land of Demons, or the Land of Fire below the Land of Fields, the hidden passage connecting to the moon—Hyuga Himamoto has directly included these places in his territory. He only needs to distinguish between primary and secondary locations, and he will be able to wait for the first batch of clansmen who have completed the ascension plan to wake up without worrying about manpower.

In addition, Hinata Himo also had his eye on another position.

He slowly raised his head to look at the map projected by [Dark Eye], his eyes shifting slightly to the right, and then he touched his chin.

What merit or ability did Obito Uchiha possess?

What makes him worthy of controlling Kirigakure, one of the five great nations and five great ninja villages, for so many years?

On this trip, he plans to also find a more obedient master for Kirigakure and a more obedient daimyo.

Hiashi Hyuga is right. A country's development depends on many factors, including population, economy, military strength, and faith. It also needs a healthy and sustainable development system, which at the very least guarantees the basic needs of the country's citizens.

Ok,

The daimyo of the Land of Water would surely be happy to develop those sea areas together with the Yangshin Kingdom.

However, Hiashi Hyuga's personality was too conservative. The establishment of a country does require a lot of preparation, but there are different times for it.

This is the ninja world, a place ravaged by war year after year. Believe it or not, if you can help those people live in peace, they'll call you God, or even Father.

Solving basic livelihood issues isn't difficult. Hyuga Hisei occasionally studies the food problem in this world and provides Orochimaru with some direction. He might very well become the father of hybrid rice in the ninja world. Adding some affordable pickled vegetables would make it even more delicious.

Based on the situation of the Fourth Shinobi World War in the original work, if you only need to find an enemy for certain radicals after the founding of the country, all the hidden dangers can be resolved.

Then the next steps can be determined.

Hinata Hijiri stopped tapping his fingers on the table, having reached a conclusion. He nodded to his subordinates, already having a clear understanding of the territory issue. He then handed the rest of the time over to his men.

Whether it was Orochimaru's ascension plan or the Caged Bird reform concerning the Yang God Seal, these things were still vague in the minds of the clansmen. However, after today, they will surely have a full understanding of their future.

Finally, the meeting ended.

The future development direction of the Hyuga clan has been basically determined.

It is foreseeable that after today, Chief Richeng will be in a busy state.

at the same time.

Fire Nation.

Konoha.

This was the day after the Hyuga clan unilaterally announced their departure from Konoha.

The collapse of the peace talks between the three kingdoms, the killing of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and the renewed attack on Konoha have not yet spread throughout the ninja world, but they have already begun to ferment rapidly on a small scale. It is foreseeable that the entire ninja world will be shocked by these events soon.

Like the Hyuga clan, they were also having a meeting.

At this moment, Konoha is also engaged in heated discussions regarding post-disaster reconstruction.

However, compared to the Hyuga clan's sense of anticipation for rebirth, the atmosphere at this meeting was filled with a sense of oppression.

Without him.

The village was destroyed.

However, after the Nine-Tails' attack and subsequent reconstruction, Konoha was quite familiar with this business model.

But now they face a very real problem.

During the Nine-Tails' rampage, the Fire Country Daimyo, who was killed by Hyuga Himaru, played a significant role in both the Third Hokage's return to power and the reconstruction of the village.

Now, because of the death of the Fire Country Daimyo, the Daimyo's office feels that it has lost all face, and the newly appointed Daimyo also feels that Konoha is very outrageous, that his own dog dared to bite its master!

If this gets out, he'll be laughed at to death by the famous people of other countries.

So, feeling humiliated, the Daimyo hated the Hyuga clan and also took his anger out on Konoha.

The most intuitive manifestation is

In the makeshift meeting room, the group of survivors from various ethnic groups looked with pity at Shimura Danzo, who had been beaten black and blue.

Yes, before dawn, Danzo went to the daimyo's residence, informed him of the daimyo's death in battle, shifted all the blame onto the Hyuga clan, and then asked the daimyo's son for humanitarian aid.

Then he got beaten up and kicked out.

Having not dared to retaliate, Lord Danzo returned to the village dejectedly, bringing back the bad news with him.

So the problem facing Konoha now is...

The disaster is over, but life goes on.

However, they did not have enough funds to support the reconstruction.

另外

When Fugaku stood up, the clan chiefs, the old village chief, and Jiraiya all looked up at him.

"A country cannot be without a great name for a day, just as a village cannot be without a shadow for a day."

Enjoying the attention around him, Fugaku spoke proudly.

"The Third Hokage has already proven with his meager abilities that he is not up to the task of Hokage. During his tenure, the Senju clan was so successfully integrated into the village that they almost disappeared. Konoha's White Fang committed suicide out of shame. The Third Shinobi World War resulted in a series of defeats. Orochimaru left the village in anger, and the Nine-Tails went berserk in a fit of rage. The Hidden Cloud Village saw that he was easy to bully and started a war, forcing the former Konoha's Byakugan master, Hijin, to leave, which led to the village suffering another disaster."

"It can be said that the Third Hokage deserves much credit for bringing Konoha to where it is today!"
