Konoha: I turn on the limiter in the ninja world

The sun was rising, and the weather was getting a little cold as winter gradually approached.

However, this temperature was nothing to Ryosuke, as he could still train his physique in the training ground with his upper body bare, and he didn't feel any cold.

Sweat was pouring down his body, but his muscles didn't feel any soreness or fatigue.

In fact, Ryosuke's current training and exercise were basically useless.

After the strength grew to a certain level, it was too difficult to improve the body and spirit again. It was difficult to improve it by just doing some ordinary high-intensity exercises, even if it was compensated by the number of times.

In the past, a thousand or even thousands of squats, or other exercise programs, as long as they lasted long enough, could bring a lot of changes to Ryosuke.

But after the third transformation, even if he did 10,000 squats, the improvement effect could be said to be negligible, and there was no real improvement like before.

Although the upper limit did become deeper after the limiter was turned on, the difficulty of improvement was increased.

This was also the reason why Ryosuke hesitated whether to attack Black Zetsu in advance.

If he took action in advance, he could indeed avoid a lot of dangers.

But without a suitable opponent, he didn't know if he could continue to improve.

Ryosuke was almost at the second half of the road opened up by his predecessors, but the direction behind was dark and deep, and the end was like a broken road to heaven, with no place to step on.

Although a person can also open up, he will inevitably take many detours. If there are examples on this road as signposts, giving him certain hints, perhaps this road can be smoother.

Thinking of this, Ryosuke stopped exercising.

The warm winter sun shone on him, and the sweat slid on his strong body like crystal dew in the sun.

Although his whole body was wet with sweat, Ryosuke did not feel any fatigue.

Whether it was mentally or physically, it was as if he had not exercised at all, there was no improvement, and there was no feeling.

"It has been confirmed for so long, and it's time to give up."

Putting the long towel on the bench next to him, Ryosuke wiped his wet hair and body while walking towards home.

It has been nearly a year since the third transformation. Since there is no way to improve himself through simple training, he will not go all the way.

If he wants to improve his strength, Ryosuke can also start from other directions.

From today on, he will lower the priority of this kind of physical training and put more energy on studying the technique.

After returning home from morning exercise, Hinata and the others have also finished their morning exercises.

The family gathered at the dinner table again, and a breakfast was solved quietly and quickly.

But today is a little different. After breakfast, Hinata and Hanabi did not go to school, and Hyuga Hiashi did not do the work that should be done as the head of the clan.

After spending some time to tidy up their appearance, they went out together for the first time in a long time, walked on the streets of the clan land to meet with the clan members in the clan, and then left the clan land together and walked into the streets of Konoha.

Today is a special day. Most public institutions in Konoha Village have suspended operations, just like when Sarutobi Hiruzen died.

It’s just that the funeral was a sad thing for Konoha, but today it is a happy event.

Not only the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the noble officials of the country came to the scene, but even the other countries of the alliance sent envoys to watch the ceremony.

Such a grand ceremony is entirely because Konoha Village will welcome the fifth Hokage since the establishment of the village-Jiraiya.

Amidst the laughter and discussion.

With the word "happy" written all over his face, Jiraiya, who had met Ryosuke once, stiffly walked through the lively crowd and came to the front of everyone under the siege of the two Hokage advisors, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En.

It has been a while since the last meeting.

Since Ryosuke suggested that he could start with Naruto's parents to enhance their relationship, he has not seen them for almost a month.

Standing on the high platform, Jiraiya also solemnly put on the Hokage hat and cloak in front of everyone with the help of the two advisors, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En.

And, he took the letter of appointment from the hands of the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

"Then, I will be the fifth Hokage of Konoha Village, but..."

With a dry cough, Jiraiya, who had just received the letter of appointment and strode to the front of the crowd, was ready to give a passionate speech to encourage the aspiring young people in the village to work hard and strive to replace him as the Hokage as soon as possible.

"Okay!"

"Then the succession ceremony ends here."

But he had just said half a sentence, and the next to him, Koharu Utatane and En Mitomon, had already clapped tacitly and shouted to interrupt his speech.

By the way, they also announced the end of the succession ceremony.

This... is it so sloppy?

Whether it was the others below or Jiraiya standing on the high platform, they all had an urge to complain.

That is, the daimyo and noble officials seemed to have known this arrangement for a long time, covering their faces with fans and laughing at this funny scene.

But since it was like this, Jiraiya did not continue to force his speech.

The succession ceremony, which lasted less than half a day and most of the time was spent in gatherings, ended very monotonously.

Hinata and Hanabi, who were beside Ryosuke, felt a little dizzy until they returned to the clan land with the flow of people from Hyuga.

After hesitating for a while, Hinata looked at the flow of people beside her, leaned close to Ryosuke's ear and whispered: "Since... the Fifth Hokage should have been sidelined, right? By those two Hokage advisors."

Obviously, she didn't understand what was going on just now.

Shouldn't the succession ceremony of the Hokage be a very serious and solemn part? Why did that happen just now?

"How is it possible."

Ryosuke turned his head with a smile, "Maybe you haven't understood what kind of person Jiraiya is."

"When you understand what kind of person our Fifth Hokage is in the future, you will understand why the two Hokage advisors interrupted him just now and why there was such an arrangement."

"If he really lets him continue this speech, he might turn the scene into... a signing event in a paradise of intimacy?"

As he said, he looked at Hyuga Hiashi next to him.

Hyuga Hiashi was stunned by his words, and after thinking seriously for a few seconds, he nodded seriously, "Maybe." He seemed to recall some memories, and his old face blushed. But soon, Hyuga Hiashi realized something again, and looked at Ryosuke with a very subtle look, "You kid...you should move out before you become an adult, and come back when you are old enough." His tone was a little dangerous. Ryosuke:? Facing his father's eyes, he felt that his clear personality seemed to be stained with something unconsciously. And next to him, Hinata and Hanabi were very confused. "Generally speaking, shouldn't a family wait until the child becomes an adult before letting the child move out?" Before Ryosuke could refute anything, he heard Hinata ask strangely: "Why does my father want Ryosuke to move out now, but move back after he becomes an adult, and it seems that we don't have this habit, we have always lived in the old house." With a naive and childish tone, it is obvious that although Hinata's personality is relatively precocious under the influence of Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura, Hinata's personality is relatively precocious. But she didn't know him too well. She had never read books that were not suitable for children, such as Intimate Paradise.

Seeing her clear and puzzled eyes, Ryosuke coughed and said, "Let's talk about Jiraiya-senpai, father?"

"...Yes, Ryosuke, what do you think of Jiraiya becoming Hokage?"

Hinata Hiashi also felt that this topic was not easy to explore and spread, so he quickly followed his meaning.

"I think... he should be just a transition, and it may be very short."

Ryosuke said casually, "Perhaps during his reign, Konoha will not have a big change, it will always remain the same, and there will be no new policies or systems."

"No... No, he should at least clean up the mess left by Shimura Danzo."

"But in addition to the affairs of the root, Jiraiya should focus on training the next generation of Hokage. When the right candidate appears, he will quickly abdicate and let the wise man go. After all, his heart is still free."

The fifth generation Hokage was eventually served by Jiraiya.

But there is really no other suitable candidate in the village. Under the pressure of Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En, even if he doesn't want to be bound, he can only sit on this position helplessly.

Moreover, Jiraiya himself is very fond of Konoha.

However, Ryosuke believes that he will not sit on this position for too long...

The succession of the fifth generation Hokage is just a small episode. At least for Ryosuke, it is a very plain thing and did not cause much emotional fluctuation.

However, this incident is the last of the major events that happened in Konoha this year.

This year, many things happened in Konoha Village.

For example, the child of the fourth generation Hokage Minato Namikaze is actually Uzumaki Naruto, or the death of the third generation Hokage, etc.

Although these things have nothing to do with Ryosuke on the surface, they are more or less caused by his influence in secret.

At least if it weren't for Ryosuke, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo might have lived a few more years...

"Are you nervous?"

This year's clan meeting is completely different from the previous year. It is more lively and energetic.

In front of the mourning hall where the heroic spirits of the family are commemorated, Ryosuke and Hinata stood in a corner of the crowd, waiting for the start of this year's clan meeting.

For the opening ceremony of this year's clan meeting, Hyuga Hiashi planned to let Hinata host it, and then slowly hand over the power to her year by year in a step-by-step manner.

Looking at the crowd around her, Hinata had a cold face, but couldn't help but reach out and hold Ryosuke's palm, "One thing, I always feel that the things you and your father are worried about will happen, and this is my first time hosting."

While whispering, she clenched her fist tightly, like a ball of white cotton, and got into Ryosuke's broad palm.

Seeing Hinata was very nervous but had to keep a serious attitude, Ryosuke held her hand with a smile, giving her some strength, "Something will definitely happen, but I don't know if it will be this year or next year." "Anyway, no matter what happens, my father and I will always stand behind you, and we have already arranged it together, right?" In this year, many things have happened to Hinata, and many things have changed.

The thousand-year-old system changed within a year, which was a bit short.

Many things that should have taken time to settle and run-in also had some hidden dangers, or in other words, some things that were once buried deep were dug out again, giving them a chance to see the light again.

The current Hyuga is full of smoke and all kinds of voices.

The bird in the cage that lost the function of controlling the life of the branch family and only retained the ability to destroy the Byakugan after death is no longer a sword hanging over the head of the branch family.

The Hyuga branch family, which is not bound and no longer lives simply for the main family, began to have "vitality".

Many people began to work hard. In the past, they did not work hard because their lives belonged to the main family. Even if they worked hard, it was not their own, and in the end it was just a waste of effort.

But now, if they practice seriously and improve their strength, they may have the opportunity to come into contact with the clan secrets that they once dared not reach, and this kind of thing is what they are extremely eager for.

From this point of view alone, the change in Hyuga is a good thing.

But from other aspects, it is not necessarily a good thing.

Because these "free" branches are like tigers escaping from the zoo, they wantonly show their fangs and do things they dared not do before.

Even... some people are no longer willing to obey the orders of the clan leader, and they are no longer secretly obeying and disobeying, but really going against it.

Not all the branches who have regained their freedom will look forward.

Many people always stare at what happened in the past, and they can't forget the pain and oppression of being controlled by the main family.

For example...

"I object to Hinata hosting!"

Just as Hinata walked to the front of the crowd and took the incense from Hyuga Hiashi under the attention of many clan members, she had no time to bend down to worship the heroic spirit of her ancestors, and a voice suddenly rang out in the crowd.

"I also oppose Hinata Hyuga's presidency. How can a child like her have the qualifications!"

"Yes! She can't even use the most basic Baguazhang of our Hyuga. How can she be qualified to be the next clan leader!"

"The clan leader of our Hyuga must be a genius who is arrogant and talented to convince the people."

With a voice leading the way, one after another, the voices rang out from the crowd.

"How dare you! Where do you think this place is?"

Before the clan leader Hyuga Hiashi spoke, the more irritable clan elder Ichio in the family had already scolded him.

"Ichio, clan elder, we are just telling the truth."

A few familiar figures of Ryosuke emerged from the crowd.

They were all of a certain age and strength. There was a jonin and the others were all chunins. They were the guys he had seen in the dark of the clan.

"It was the Hiashi clan leader and Hinata who said that the position of clan leader should be held by the most capable."

The senior ninja looked at Kazuo calmly, not afraid of the fierceness in his eyes. "I believe that anyone with a little knowledge in the clan should know that Hyuga Hinata's strength is indeed good compared to ordinary ninjas of the same age."

"But from the perspective of the clan leader, there is really a huge gap."

"She is almost ten years old and has not yet fully mastered the use of Baguazhang. In comparison, our branch family's Ningci seems to be more qualified to sit in this position, right?"

"Our branch family's Ningci has long been familiar with Baguazhang, and has also relied on his own talent to comprehend the technique of turning the sky. With him leading the Hyuga clan, it will definitely go to the next level."

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was silent for a few seconds.

However, many people in the crowd looked at each other with strange colors.

Main family, branch family...

Although the status of the main family and the branch family seems to be equal after the institutional changes.

But after all, these are two different words.

But what if the people of the branch family can really become the head of the family as the people of their main family said? Then will their main family step down as promised at the beginning?

At that time, will the people of the branch family still be inferior to others?
