Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

Uchiha Shisui stood frozen in place, motionless.

My mind went blank, and I wondered if I had misheard.

"I said, the position of Minister of Peacekeeping is now in your hands."

Namikaze Mirai repeated it with a smile.

"I'll be the Minister of the...the Peacekeeping Department?"

Even the word order in Zhishui's writing is starting to become unclear.

It felt like being hit by a giant pie; I was in a daze for a moment and hadn't come to my senses yet.

"Why, don't you want to?"

"No! I just..." Uchiha Shisui swallowed.

"I just don't understand why you would entrust me with such an important responsibility?"

"Because you are a peace-loving Uchiha, your hope for peace is very important to the peacekeeping department."

"I think it was the right decision to hand over the peacekeeping department to you. As the peacekeeping minister, you certainly wouldn't stand idly by and watch the Land of Fire, and even the ninja world, be filled with chaos and injustice."

"To quell the chaos and restore order to the ninja world—this is the duty of the peacekeeping department, and it will also be your duty."

Namikaze Mirai gazed into Shisui's eyes.

"Shisui, tell me, can you do it?"

In Uchiha Shisui's dark eyes, it seemed as if a flame was burning fiercely.

He seemed to have found the meaning of his birth.

So, I awakened these eyes for this very purpose?

To maintain peace in the ninja world and to restore order to the ninja world, even if it means exhausting the power of Kotoamatsukami, I will dedicate my entire life to upholding this belief.

"Hokage-sama! Thank you!"

"I have never felt so wonderful at this moment!"

"I felt as if I had found the meaning of life, the only lighthouse in the dark sea."

"Maintaining peace in the ninja world is my duty, Uchiha Shisui!"

Chapter 107: They already have guns! What are they afraid of, the main family?

The reform of the seven departments of the new Konoha was quickly put on the agenda.

The Uchiha peacekeeping division was the easiest one to complete.

On the streets of Konoha, you can see many Uchiha clansmen standing tall and proud, showing off.

Maintaining peace in the ninja world—that's so cool!

The villagers smiled as they looked at the Uchiha.

The change of personnel in the security department is naturally a good thing for them.

Not having to deal with the arrogant Uchiha clan members enforcing the law every day has made me feel much better.

The establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture also proceeded quite smoothly.

After a brief moment of surprise, the aburame women quickly accepted this new job.

As members of the socially awkward Konoha clan, they are genuinely satisfied with this kind of job that doesn't require interacting with people.

Rice pest control.

What a perfect job!

The only one with problems was the security department!

"You mean, the elders of the main family don't approve of Hyuga taking over the position of the guard?"

In the Hokage Building, as Miki Namikaze listened to Hiashi Hyuga's narration, her brows gradually furrowed.

"Yes."

Hiashi Hyuga had a terrible headache.

It was thought that Hyuga's takeover of the Guard Department would allow the Hyuga clan to gain more power in the upper echelons.

Unexpectedly, just as Namikaze Mirai issued the order...

This was met with resistance from the clan elders.

The reason is:

As a member of the noble Hyuga clan, how could they possibly engage in this kind of security work? They should take over the job from the Uchiha.

The establishment of a new guard department was repeatedly thwarted by protests from the clan elders.

Hiashi Hyuga didn't have a good solution either.

The Hyuga clan is a clan with extremely strict rules and regulations.

Even as the clan leader, he could not defy the many elders and forcefully push this measure forward.

"I already understand the situation."

Namikaze Mirai nodded.

"What are your plans for the future?"

Hiashi Hyuga asked nervously.

He knew Namikaze's future personality well.

The man in front of me is definitely not someone who is easy to talk to.

Danzo was personally defeated by him, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was placed under house arrest and stripped of all his rights.

What's wrong with those clan elders?

Why fight against something like this? Going against the tide of the future, will it end well?

"Since you can't reach an agreement, then I'll take over!"

The future of the wave is quite calm.

……

Sungai tribe.

Inside the main family residence.

A group of clan elders were gathered together, sitting cross-legged on a prayer mat.

"Do you think the Hokage will be unhappy if we reject the plan for Hyuga to take over the Guard Department?"

"It's normal to be unhappy, but so what? The Hyuga is the oldest ninja clan in Konoha, and the rules cannot be changed!"

Hyuga serves in the security department?

absurd!

The Hyuga clan has never had a case of maintaining order in the village.

The Uchiha clan quit, and the Hyuga clan took over.

If word gets out, where will the Hyuga clan's reputation be? Where will their main family's reputation be?

"How should we deal with the Hokage? I've heard that the Fifth Hokage is quite a domineering person."

"This is a matter for the Hyuga clan. Even the Third Hokage has no right to interfere in matters within the Hyuga clan."

Hinata Aoki pondered.

He was the highest-ranking elder in the clan.

Upon hearing his words, the surrounding elders nodded in agreement.

Even the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, when it came to matters involving the Hyuga clan, always sought a balance acceptable to both sides through political means of exchanging interests.

Can this newly appointed Fifth Hokage surpass him?

Just as they were discussing, they heard a loud bang.

The mansion's doors were violently pushed open.

The elder of the clan turned his head in astonishment, and when he saw the golden-haired figure, his body trembled involuntarily.

"I heard that you are not very satisfied with my actions..."

Although Namikaze Mirai was smiling, that smile revealed a chilling aura that made the elders of the clan tremble.

"No, no, we are very satisfied."

"As expected of the Hokage! To come up with such a groundbreaking idea!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Having Hyuga in charge of the security department is an absolutely brilliant idea..."

He listened to the trembling compliments from the clan elders around him.

A dryness appeared at the corner of Hinata Aoki's mouth.
