Chapter 342 Funeral If Danzo were still alive, his eyes would probably turn red after hearing Ming Jing's words. Kato Dan felt a lot of emotion in his heart at this time. More than ten years ago, in order to obtain the position of Hokage, they had planned it for many years and put in countless efforts before finally grabbing this position ten years ago. As a result, ten years later, when he said that he would pass on the position of Hokage to Ming Jing, this guy actually wanted to let him do it for another ten years. What is this thing called? Kato Dan smiled bitterly twice and continued: "No, Ming Jing, in the current village, you are the only one who can be the Hokage. Although I really don't want to admit it, under the current situation, with my ability, I really cannot shoulder the responsibilities that a Hokage should bear. In the current village, Only you have this ability. Whether it is strength or prestige, you are superior to all previous Hokages. At this time, replacing a more talented and outstanding Hokage can also better boost the morale of the ninjas. .” Thoughts flashed rapidly in Ming Jing's mind. Is the position of Hokage tiring? Of course it is tiring, and Kato Dan is undoubtedly the most tiring and mentally stressed Hokage in Konoha right now. The first Hokage was heartless and left everything to Senju Tobirama. He only had to make decisions on major matters. Even if there were problems with these decisions, he still had the external brain Senju Tobirama to clean up the aftermath.
Senju Tobirama himself has outstanding abilities and has done the most practical things. He also perfected the early system of Konoha. After the death of the first generation, Senju Tobirama was responsible for all matters of Konoha alone, but at least those things were taken care of. Within his own control. Not to mention the third generation. When he first took over as Hokage, he was still very conscientious. Although his ability was a bit lacking, Danzo came to help him do the dirty work, Mito Kabuto and Koharu, who had been transferred to the dormitory, came to help handle government affairs. The first two The rich legacy accumulated by the Hokage was still protected by Uzumaki Mito in the early stage. In the middle and late stages, the Sannin rose up. Even if the ability was poor and no matter how prodigal, Konoha could still get through it relying on the strong foundation of Konoha. But Kato Dan was more unlucky. Within two years of becoming Hokage, Madara ran out and started acting like a demon, and his strength and power became stronger and stronger. This Hokage is really under too much pressure. "This, okay." Der Spiegel is determined to find a way to develop something like artificial intelligence to help it deal with these things. When Ming Jing takes over as Hokage, there is actually no need to hold a vote of confidence or anything like that. In the first generation, it was because Madara could compete with him. Even if the first generation wanted to hand over the position of Hokage to Madara, Senju Tobirama also introduced a voting process to push Senju Hashirama to the top. The second generation was directly identified by the first generation. The first generation had such prestige in the village at that time that he directly designated the successor. The second generation was also the only qualified person in Konoha Village at that time. The same goes for the second generation who appoints the third generation to take over. He has that prestige, but the third generation's prestige and ability are not enough, so he needs the help of his old classmates. And when the time comes to select the fourth generation, the third generation will not have the ability to force one person to take over. Not only is there a gap between himself and the first two generations of Hokage, but also because there are too many people who have the ability to take over as the fourth generation, and the third generation himself cannot suppress it. In the event of factional fighting, you can only vote. As for the fourth to fifth generations, history has entered another cycle. The difference is that this time only Ming Jing can be the fifth generation, and even Kato Dan, the fourth generation, wants to retire early. …… …… After the meeting. Uchiha clan. "Uchiha, is there finally going to be a Hokage?" Uchiha Yu was leaning on the lounge chair, basking in the sun, smoking a pipe, his face full of relief.
"Ding Jing, when I was young, I was only a jounin at most. Even if I was pretty good among the jonins, I am definitely far behind your current level. But after living for at least eighty years, I still have some problems. I can tell you from experience. Of course, what I say may not be correct, but I think it should still be of some help to you.” Uchiha put down his pipe and stood up on the recliner. "No matter what your thoughts are now, you must take over the position of Hokage as soon as possible. I can see that you are afraid of trouble and don't want to be entangled in all kinds of trivial matters, but you can ignore it and just use the name of Hokage. No., take care of it when you want to, after all, your strength is here, strength is the foundation of everything, no one in Konoha can hinder you in whatever you want to do." "Just like the First Hokage fifty years ago, basically the Senju Tobirama guy is responsible for more than 90% of the affairs in the village. But once the First Hokage wants to do something, no one can stop it, and the whole village will do its best to carry it out. The will of the first generation is brought about by absolute strength and prestige.” "the same as you." Uchihaha took another drag on his pipe, blew out the smoke ring, and continued: "Moreover, now that Minato and Kushina have united to possess combat power that surpasses Kage's level, when Fugaku and Shisui also activate the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, how will Dan suppress them? In the past, you were Dan's mantle My disciple is the absolute crown prince of Konoha, so it doesn’t matter if your strength exceeds Dan’s, but it can stabilize Dan’s status and increase his power.” "But in the future, only you can be the Hokage to suppress me. Fugaku and Shisui are both your clansmen. Shisui is even your brother. Namikaze Minato has a gentle and steady personality, and he has a good relationship with you. No matter from his own perspective, From the perspective of strength, or from the perspective of balancing the various war powers in the village, you are the only candidate. " Ming Jing sat in front of the stone table, listening to Uchiha Yu's statement, and couldn't help but nodded. There is a word called prosperity and decline. When a force reaches its peak, once there is a slight decline, it will weaken rapidly and be irreversible. From a historical perspective, Konoha has reached an unprecedented peak period. Even looking at the entire ninja world, it is the era with the most high-end combat power since the Six Paths Sage. In the past, having a shadow-level strength was enough to become a shadow. The weaker the strength, the greater the role of intelligence, numbers, etc. in the battle. Even a slightly weaker shadow-level master would not be able to make tactical arrangements in the future. Under the right circumstances, it is possible to kill shadow-level players who are stronger than yourself. This is why Danzo is not as strong as the Third Generation, and he is thinking about the position of Hokage all day long. Because from this perspective, he does have the strength to become a shadow, and everyone's strength is not so great that it is difficult to be wiped out by other factors. This kind of thing can happen when the leader and a very small number of individuals under his command are of similar strength. If a person whose strength is only at the shadow level is placed above multiple super shadow levels, there will probably be problems. Once Konoha loses the external pressure of Madara, there is no telling what will happen. Even if he has his own six-level combat power, it is not something that an ordinary Kage level like Kato Dan can suppress the situation. "I understand, Grandpa Yu, then I will be well prepared for the next period of time." Ming Jing nodded to Uchiha Yu. Anyway, my goal for the next period of time is to stay in the world of Naruto, understand the limits of the major blood successors, and try to integrate the blood successors into the net. This is a relatively time-consuming effort. Furthermore, he is preparing to kill Uchiha Madara and completely eliminate the current crisis in the ninja world. At that time, you can leave a wooden clone sitting in the Hokage's office, and your true body can wander around. "Calculating the time, it's almost almost time. Let's go. We still have to attend Itachi's funeral. Anyway, this kid is my old man and I have watched him grow up." Uchiha Yu slowly stood up from the recliner, and Ming Jing made a gesture to help him. "I don't need your support. Now that I can still walk without crutches, I plan to walk more." Uchiha Yu waved his hand and walked out of the door slowly. Ming Jing touched his nose and said nothing. He just picked up a few bouquets of chrysanthemums from the table and followed them. To be honest, he hadn't experienced this feeling of walking slowly for a long time.
During the Kaleidoscope period, I would save my pupil power and not use my heavenly hand power easily. However, after I mastered the Flying Thunder God later on, I rarely hurried on normally. Now that I have gained insight into the ability to replicate blasts, I have almost never traveled normally. All I have to do is throw out a teleportation aperture and get it right in one step. Walking around the streets now, I can see some changes that have taken place in Konoha in the past few years. With the promotion of Ming Jing and Orochimaru, the two top executives, Konoha's current technological development is extremely rapid, and many modern products All have appeared. Although it is not yet the international modern metropolis that it will be in the future Boruto era, many high-rise buildings have been built. "The memorial tablet has arrived." Uchiha Yu's old eyes scanned the surroundings, and all he saw were people dressed in black like them, holding chrysanthemums in their hands. "The funeral hasn't started yet, I'll go pay my respects to the others first." Uchiha Yu took two bouquets of chrysanthemums and walked to the other side. That's where his son and daughter-in-law were killed decades ago. Ming Jing also came to the place where his original parents were and paid homage. After the worship was over, a burst of footsteps came to Ming Jing's side. "Life is really fragile, Mingjing-kun. With the Mangekyou Sharingan, Itachi was a strong man enough to threaten a village of shadows in the past, but he passed away at such a young age, don't you think? "Is life a very sad and cruel thing?" You don't need to think about it to know that it must be Orochimaru who said this. The old philosopher belongs to yes. Because of the funeral, Uncle Snake was wearing a black kimono this time. "Perhaps, we are destined to have a lifespan that is much longer than that of ordinary people. Even if one day we are unable to make any progress in cultivating immortals, there are still other ways to get rid of the limitation of lifespan. Regarding the passing of other passers-by in life, Sooner or later you have to learn to get used to it." Ming Jing stood up and did not look back. "It seems I don't need to persuade you to change your mentality anymore. We are indeed the same kind of people." Orochimaru smiled. Ming Jing did not answer, but said: "The funeral has begun. Come back to the team." The two of them walked along the path together. Everyone in the middle of the journey gave way to the two high-level officials of Konoha. At the front of the crowd was not Kato Dan, the Hokage, but three other people from the Uchiha Itachi family. Uchiha Mikoto hugged Sasuke, and the mother and son burst into tears. Uchiha Fugaku softly comforted his wife and son, looking sad. The news of Uchiha Itachi's death in the line of duty while performing a mission as an undercover agent has been announced in the village, so many people came here spontaneously to say goodbye to this young ninja who had been burdened with infamy for more than a year. Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Jhin were in front, carrying the coffin through the crowd with the other two Konoha ninjas. Because Uchiha Itachi almost died without a complete body, except for the ashes, only a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan was left, so in addition to the ashes, the coffin also contained his clothes during his lifetime.
There is no red cloud black robe of the Akatsuki organization, nor is there the forehead protector of the Konoha traitor. This is to follow Uchiha Itachi's last wish during his lifetime and die as a Konoha ninja. Therefore, it contained Shisui's Jonin vest, the small Uchiha turtleneck that Uchiha Itachi wore in the ninja school, and so on. It is worth mentioning that among the other two Konoha ninjas, one of them is Uchiha Itachi's leading jounin during his genin period, Fusai Tai, and the other is a middle-aged man in his forties. Kurono Ohfune, Uchiha Itachi's teacher when he was in the ninja school, was also the teacher of the less than ten-year-old Ming Jing in the ninja school twenty years ago. Well, he was even Shisui's teacher when he was in ninja school. Mainly because he taught an Uchiha Mingjing, and the class he led at that time also included Fu Matsui Tai and Inuzuka Claw, adding up to three jounin. In addition, there were eight people in that class who survived to become Special jounin - actually there should be nine, but one died while performing a mission. The success rate is astonishingly high. Therefore, this teacher has always been the most recognized teacher in the ninja school for his teaching ability. He has always led the elite class of the ninja school, so he has served as the teacher of Shisui and Itachi successively. The funeral is over. The next day. Inside Konoha's newly established First Scientific Research Institute, the Bioscience Laboratory. After Shisui and Fugaku finished taking care of Uchiha Itachi's death, they began their life of being studied here. "I didn't expect, Mr. Ming Jing, that you have made such great progress in biological sciences. Whether it is methods or techniques, you are already far ahead of me as a teacher." Standing in front of the instrument that Ming Jing had modified overnight, Tsunade's heart was complicated. Ming Jing smiled and said nothing. The world level of One Punch World is very high, and the level of technology in it is also very high. Not to mention Genos, who can almost be regarded as the ceiling of biologists in the one-punch world. Since he has such a good relationship with such a super scientist, how could Der Spiegel not learn from him? In fact, it's not like he was stealing. Ming Jing just used his reincarnation eye to quickly read through most of Jinos's book collection, and then used his huge mental power to write these things down. If there's something you don't know, ask Kinos. If Kinos can't explain it clearly, just demonstrate it on the spot. There is a magic mirror, and the mirror can understand it at a glance.
