Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

"Then cut off Konoha's funding, and secretly inform Kumogakure about this!"

At this point, Daiming sneered, a hint of smugness in his voice:

"I want to see how long Konoha can hold out without the support of the Daimyo's Mansion!!"

Yanagisawa Yoshiho and others fawned over him, saying:

"My lord, you are wise!"

"Of course! Under my leadership, that damned Uchiha Haneda will have to bow down to me!!"

The nameless man smiled smugly. In this world, the shadow would always be inferior to the nameless man in terms of status!

This order, which started in a single country and a single village, has been maintained for decades!

Uchiha Haneda, a teenager, attempted to disrupt the established order.

Once he's hit a brick wall and is bleeding profusely, he'll definitely come begging to me, groveling with shame!

…………

On the other side, Konoha Prison.

Danzo has been imprisoned here ever since he was captured by Haneda.

Under the warden's deliberate or unintentional arrangement, he moved to the place where he had previously been imprisoned.

Familiar water droplets fall from the ceiling.

Danzo remained indifferent; he had long since lost all hope.

The inherently evil Uchiha brat bears the Flying Thunder God mark on him.

He knew he couldn't escape this prison!

Moreover, Haneda the brat became the Fifth Hokage, and even his best friend sided with that brat!

Da da da……

Familiar footsteps echoed down the corridor, and Danzo knew that his old friend Hiruzen Sarutobi had arrived.

"What are you doing here? Didn't that inherently evil Uchiha brat tell you all the truth about me?"

Danzo asked in a low voice.

Seeing Danzo's increasingly dejected expression, the Third Hokage couldn't help but ask with concern:

"You've lost weight, Danzo."

"I brought chicken soup made from an old hen that I've had for two and a half years, so I can nourish my body more."

The third generation ladled the soup he had cooked into a bowl.

Danzo snorted, reluctantly picked up the bowl, and drank it all under Hiruzen's watchful gaze.

After finishing his drink, Danzo asked, "Has anything happened in the village recently?"

When the topic of village affairs came up, the third generation leader sighed deeply:

"Haneda is too young. He organized a coronation ceremony, but this afternoon he publicly humiliated the daimyo."

"What did he do, Hiruzen?" Danzo's eyes widened when he heard that Haneda had done such a thing right off the bat.

The third generation explained:

"Haneda snatched the Hokage hat from the Daimyo's hands."

"He also used illusion magic to control the daimyo in front of the envoys of various countries, making the daimyo lose face."

"It's over, Hiruzen! Konoha's funds for this year are gone!!"

Danzo immediately connected this to the daimyo's current reaction.

He's definitely thinking about how to severely punish this inherently evil Uchiha brat!

Konoha's funds for this year are almost gone. Even if that brat begs the Daimyo in a humble manner, future funds will be reduced!

Konoha will decline!

"Hiruzen, I knew you'd regret this!"

"Back then, you should have handed over that inherently evil Uchiha brat, Haneda, to me!"

"With an idiot like him in Konoha, it's bound to decline sooner or later!"

"You should know the dire situation that Sunagakure and Kirigakure are in right now, right?"

"Both were cut by the daimyo; one had to reduce the training of ninjas, and the other implemented the Blood Mist policy."

"With an idiot like Haneda in Konoha, it will continue to decline!"

The Third Hokage understood Danzo's meaning. He sighed and did not refute Danzo's words.

He now only hopes that Haneda will bow down to the daimyo as soon as possible, so that Konoha will not suffer too many losses.

…………

Chapter 249 Haneda opens up, the Daimyo is blatantly targeting him!

Haneda worked for half an hour, then left for the day.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to encourage Shikaku, telling him to work hard for the prosperity of Konoha.

Kakashi followed closely behind, dumping some of the less important tasks on Shikaku, and then left with Haneda.

Because Haneda succeeded as Hokage, he attracted too much attention when walking down the street.

He and Kakashi used the Flying Thunder God Technique in perfect unison to teleport to the third training ground.

The third training ground was, a few years ago, the place where Haneda and Kakashi spent the most time, apart from the Hatake clan's training ground.

Haneda used to train with Kakashi here often, practicing the Flying Thunder God Technique and sealing techniques.

Kakashi accompanied Haneda the whole way and casually asked:

"Are you really planning to assassinate the daimyo and replace him with a more obedient one? So that the daimyo's government will provide more funds?"

"You've narrowed your perspective, Kakashi."

Haneda arrived at the foot of a cliff, turned around, and said...

"Why not try to control the entire Land of Fire? We are ninjas, the strongest armed organization in the Land of Fire."

Why should we depend on the Daming Prefecture?

Haneda paused, then pointed to the Hokage Rock in front of him.

At that moment, work was still underway there, with sculptors creating a sculpture for Haneda.

Haneda asked, "What do you think of Konoha right now?"

Kakashi replied without hesitation, "Although there is a lot of darkness hidden within, overall everyone is doing well."

"With you here, Konoha will only get better and better."

Haneda then asked, "What about the other parts of the Land of Fire?"

Kakashi paused for a moment, then fell into deep thought.

Within the Land of Fire, apart from Konoha and some important towns like Daimyo's Mansion, people's lives are generally better than in smaller countries.

If the place is even more remote, such as in the mountains or desert, life might be worse than in a small country.

Kakashi looked at Haneda in disbelief: "Do you intend to replace the Daimyo and become the joint leader of the nation and Konoha?!"

"is it not OK?"

"If the daimyo and those greedy nobles had embezzled and exploited less money, they could have built a second or third Konoha!"

Haneda paused, then opened up and said:

"The world needs a leader, a leader with vision and enough courage."

"He has come now, and he will lead the people to victory!"

Haneda fixed his gaze on Kakashi's eyes and continued:

"I am prepared to abolish the one country, one village system and establish the People's Republic of the Will of Fire."

"Unify the power of the Hokage and the Daimyo, and build a new nation!"

"Before that, I need to have absolute power over the entire Land of Fire and firmly grasp the power of the country in my hands."

"And at the right time, make those hereditary noblemen get their names kicked out of politics!"

"Today's coronation is just the beginning. I need the daimyo to be hostile to me, to make those ministers hostile to me, so that they will clearly know that I was the one who did the things I plan next!"

"Let them oppose me, fear me, and dread me, so that I may see who my friends are and who my enemies are!"

With Kakashi's intelligence, he could guess that Haneda would be planning a major operation targeting the nobles and daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Someone will definitely die in this incident, whether guilty or innocent.

Haneda needs to eliminate the opponents and then use the daimyo to command the world!

Kakashi looked intently into Haneda's eyes:
