Konoha: Rebuild the glory of the Uchiha

Chapter 100 Hokage, would you like a wife?

That was truly refreshing!

Uchiha Nan enjoyed the cheers, his vanity was greatly satisfied at this moment. Uchiha Nan thought he was morally bankrupt, but he did not expect that the despicable things that the group of noble insects did were even more outrageous than his own.

These beasts of burden in front of him had been exploited to the point of working two or even three shifts, yet they were still so grateful to him.

In the Naruto world, if this were the original China, a capitalist like myself—a people's entrepreneur—would definitely be trending on social media for all the wrong reasons.

Thankfully, this is the ninja world; I might even be named one of the top ten virtuous people in the ninja world.

The cattle and horses are being exploited with great pleasure, and they themselves are enjoying the squeeze. This is a two-way street!

Uchiha Nan's public display of power greatly impacted Uzumaki Ashigi. Uchiha Nan's prestige in Konoha was comparable to that of the First Hokage. Even the First Hokage had not accomplished such a remarkable feat—making ordinary people sincerely call a ninja "Long live the ninja!"

Those who are united in purpose will prevail. Even if the other four great ninja villages were to join forces to attack Konoha, they still wouldn't be able to win.

The Uzumaki clan will definitely stick close to Uchiha Nan, who is a powerful figure!

Uzumaki Reishi made up her mind: the Uzumaki clan was determined to have Uchiha Nan as their son-in-law; even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't take him away!

The Hokage still has a fondness for women. Rumor has it that when Uchiha Nan first went to pay his respects to the Daimyo, he brought back a pair of beautiful twin girls to be his bed warmers. If the girls in the clan are more ambitious and proactive, they will definitely be able to win over Uchiha Nan!

Afterwards, Uzumaki Ayashi bid farewell to Uchiha Nan and returned to the Senju clan, preparing to do some ideological work with Uzumaki Yotsuki, for the future of the Uzumaki clan, and also for her happiness in the second half of her life.

As the future Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, the best outcome for her would naturally be to marry the Hokage of Konoha.

Just like Mito Uzumaki, as the Hokage's wife, who would dare to treat her as a weapon?

I hope Yangyue can be more sensible and take the initiative to visit Uchiha Nan's house more often, listening to Uchiha Nan's teachings during the day and being instilled with the Will of Fire at night.

Uchiha Nan then returned to the Hokage's office to enjoy his slacking-off life.

Everyone else in the Hokage Building was busy. With the year-end approaching, everyone was working frantically, trying to finish their tasks as soon as possible. After all, nobody wanted to be stuck in the office working overtime during the holidays; nobody wanted to be with their wife and kids during the festive season, and maybe even have a second or third child.

"Lord Hokage, the time for the Five Kage Summit has been agreed upon."

"It's scheduled for February next year."

"."

Nara Shikato continued to report Konoha's progress to Uchiha Kusunoki every day, and the only thing that could make Uchiha Kusunoki pay attention was the Five Kage Summit, which had been in preparation for several months.

Apart from Sunagakure, the other three ninja villages are plagued by internal conflicts due to the death of the Second Kage. The newly appointed Kage are busy mediating and suppressing the different forces in the ninja villages, as well as the reactionary factions that oppose them. The Five Kage Summit has been repeatedly postponed.

After all, who wouldn't want to go out to a meeting, come back to find their house robbed, and the village having already elected four generations of knights?

Especially in Kirigakure, the Bloodstained Ninja Clan was always restless. There were even rumors that the Bloodstained Clan had joined forces and sent assassins to carry out an assassination attempt on the Third Mizukage when he left the village to pay his respects to the Daimyo. One of Mizuto's guards was killed and two were injured. Whether the news was true or false could not be verified. However, strange rumors later emerged in Kirigakure and even the Land of Water: the Bloodstained Ninja were a calamity, a curse. Wherever they were, war and death would occur.

The villages of Iwagakure and Kumogakure were much calmer, quickly throwing themselves into post-war reconstruction work, but the results were not ideal. Without money, nothing could be done, and their minds were still not sharp enough. They were desperately trying to negotiate with the daimyo for money, not knowing how to pick up kunai and shuriken and reason with the daimyo.

The Sand Village is truly helpless. Even if they kill the daimyo, they won't get any more funds. They genuinely have no money; the land is covered in sand, making farming impossible. It's truly a tragedy.

After reporting the information about the Five Kage Summit, Nara Shikato only talked about some trivial matters.

For example, the holiday schedule at the end of the year, and how much New Year's bonus the ninjas receive.

"Lord Hokage, I have a suggestion. How about we hold a grand celebration for the New Year this year? This is your first year in office, so we must make a big deal out of it. Otherwise, how can we show off your achievements?"

Nara Shikamaru thoughtfully flattered Uchiha Nan, who thoroughly enjoyed the compliment.

Although he was a bit greasy, Nara Shikamaru could swear to God that he was speaking from the heart. Now, in his heart, even if Tobirama Senju were to be resurrected, he would firmly stand on Uchiha Nan's side and support Uchiha Nan becoming Hokage.

Who wouldn't love a Hokage who's so good at making money and managing production?

When Tobirama Senju was in power, he left behind a mess for Uchiha Nan. It's obvious who was more suitable to be Hokage.

"Let's arrange it that way then!"

Uchiha Nan had no objection; this was a matter of publicizing his achievements, so naturally the more the better.

To ensure better promotional results, Uchiha Nan also emphasized the importance of paying attention to the promotional methods.

The streets and alleys of Konoha must be plastered with slogans: "Without the Third Hokage, we wouldn't have such good days today." "Konoha is red, the sun rises, a new ninja has emerged in the ninja world."

These slogans will subtly influence generations, especially since they will be plastered all over schools.

The Hokage's kindness is never enough, never enough.

Nara Shikahara picked up his notebook and wrote down all of Uchiha Nan's requests: lanterns and decorations, drums and gongs, and firecrackers. These were all necessary requirements.

The most important thing is that the money must be paid in full. No matter how nice the words are, they are not as good as actions. Konoha has plenty of funds, and the New Year's allowance for ninjas can be doubled this year.

Each worker in the factory can also take a few kilograms of meat home. What kind of New Year is it if you don't eat meat at the end of the year?

Nara Shikahara noted everything down, preparing to put these things into practice.

Time flies, and there are only two days left until the new year. The New Year's celebration organized by Nara Shikawan has already begun.

Konoha has entered a period of celebration. The Fourth Shinobi World War has ended, and the scars left by the war have become indelible marks on Konoha Village. However, the future is promising, and everything is moving in a positive direction.

The streets were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and banners promoting Uchiha Nan were hung in the alleys. No one questioned the words on the banners, because Uchiha Nan had fulfilled all the promises made on them so far.

The ninjas received a large New Year's allowance and began a joyful life of shopping sprees. The merchants of Konoha were also busy making money. Their daily turnover in the past few days was equivalent to that of the previous two or three days.

The laborers also got a short holiday. With their hard-earned meager wages, they were able to go out and spend some money. Since it was the New Year, they had to buy themselves a new outfit or two. The kind-hearted Hokage even gave them a few pounds of meat. How could they have meat without wine?

Then you'll have to buy it.

Uchiha Nan also had a day off, and guests kept coming to his house, including Uchiha Tomita, members of the Uchiha clan, and even Uchiha Kagami, who had been lying in bed recovering from a slash inflicted by Uchiha Nan for half a year.

It had a bit of a "let bygones be bygones" feel to it. Back then, when Uchiha Kagami learned that Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura had been killed and that Uchiha Nan had become Hokage, he was in unbearable pain, and the wound on his stomach even reopened.

Usurpation! This is blatant usurpation!

But there was nothing Uchiha Kagami could do. He could only watch quietly as Uchiha Nan made his every move, watching Konoha gradually emerge from the quagmire of war and begin to flourish, surpassing the peak of its former glory during Tobirama Senju's reign.

Unable to defeat them in battle, Konoha experienced a second spring under Uchiha Nan's rule. Uchiha Kagami gradually came to terms with it, and his teacher, Senju Tobirama, would surely be extremely pleased to see this and look at Uchiha Nan with new respect.

It's just tough on Hiruzen Sarutobi... and Danzo Shimura too.

"You are indeed more suitable to be Hokage than Hiruzen."

After leaving those words, Uchiha Kagami departed.

Although it was meant as a congratulatory remark, Uchiha Nan always felt that there was a hint of bitterness and resentment in it.

The only thing that gave Uchiha Nan a bit of a headache was the Uchiha clan elders. They couldn't be more satisfied with Uchiha Nan as the clan head and Hokage, as he had fulfilled the Uchiha clan's long-cherished wish.

The Uchiha are ultimately stronger than the Senju!

These stubborn old fogies, who have lived since the Warring States period, still can't forget this one thing.

The only thing that displeased the clan elders was Uchiha Nan's marriage. Uchiha Nan was already seventeen years old and still hadn't married. The two women he kept at home were just playthings; as long as they made Uchiha Nan happy, that was enough.

If I could bear a son or daughter for Uchiha Nan, I might consider having them included in the Uchiha clan's genealogy, adding the noble name of Uchiha before my own.

No matter what, the Uchiha clan is a prestigious ninja clan with a history of thousands of years. Their family background and social standing are in no way inferior to the great nobles of the Land of Fire, and even their daimyo are not inferior.

As the head of the Uchiha clan, he naturally had to marry a girl who was top-notch in terms of family background, appearance, and talent.

The best option would naturally be to choose someone from within the clan, ranging from ten to thirty years old, whether a little girl or a mature woman. As long as Uchiha Nan wanted, she could choose anyone. No girl in the clan could refuse to become the Hokage's wife of Konoha.

She quickly got married and gave birth to a genius with exceptional talent for the Uchiha clan. You should know that Uchiha Nan has two bloodline limits!

Uchiha Nan wanted to pull things back a bit. He was already used to the blissful sex life with three people, and if there were one more or even several more, he would need some time to adjust. But actually, it wasn't impossible.

Just as Uchiha Nan was struggling, Hyuga Takuma arrived with Hyuga Asuka, Uzumaki Ashi with Uzumaki Yozuki, and Nara Shikamaru with... and gifts. It was as if they had all agreed to arrive at this time.

Outside the door, Uzumaki Reishi and Hinata Takuma exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other's thoughts when they saw the girl beside the other.

You're also after the Hokage's wife!

This is absolutely outrageous!

Upon entering, I heard that the elders of the Uchiha clan were planning to find a wife for Uchiha Nan within the Uchiha clan.

After exchanging a glance, the two immediately formed a temporary alliance and took the initiative to act as a shield for Uchiha Nan.

A great man's ambition should be like a great river, flowing eastward to the sea; why indulge in the pleasures of a gentle life?

At Hokage's age, he should be striving for the future of Konoha and not be distracted by personal feelings!

One righteous and awe-inspiring statement after another, the two men, acting like comedians, forced the Uchiha clan elders to back down.

Faced with the two men's shameless actions, the two girls lowered their heads, too embarrassed to look up at Uchiha Nan. Before coming to Uchiha Nan's house, Uzumaki Aoshi and Hyuga Takuma had already instructed them to make sure they could take down Uchiha Nan, as it involved the interests of the entire clan.

The clan elders couldn't argue with these two shameless old men, so they could only leave, cursing and swearing.

Ah, te!

Those two shameless bastards brought two young girls with them. They just want their clan leader's body and hope that the Hyuga/Uzumaki clan will produce a Hokage's wife!

However, the elders were not too opposed to Hyuga Takuma and Uzumaki Ayase's actions. After all, the flesh would rot in the Uchiha clan anyway, and Uchiha Nan's children would all have the Uchiha surname.

It would be better to marry them both.

Uchiha Nan entertained the pimps, while Nara Shikato seemed a bit awkward. He was the only one who had come with gifts, not girls, which made him seem out of place!

The timing is wrong!

Uzumaki Ayase and Hyuga Takuma sighed inwardly. With that interruption and their rivals around, there was no chance for Uchiha Nan and Uzumaki Yozuki/Hyuga Asuka to be alone together.

Uchiha Nan was busy all afternoon and finally finished entertaining wave after wave of guests.

Evening

Even during the New Year, Uchiha Nan did not forget Tobirama Senju, who was still working like a slave for him in the laboratory.

They arrived at Tobirama Senju's underground laboratory, where time seemed to stand still, and Tobirama was still conducting experiments with great intensity.

"Orochimaru, remember this cell."

"This principle."

As soon as Uchiha Nan entered the laboratory, he heard the voices of Senju Tobirama and Orochimaru.

Tobirama Senju's face remained unchanged, looking like a dead man, while Orochimaru looked haggard, with frighteningly heavy dark circles under his eyes, but he was full of energy.

As expected of Orochimaru, even though it's almost the New Year, he's still in the lab learning from Tobirama Senju.

Uchiha Nan is very worried about Orochimaru's condition. Ninjas are indeed physically stronger than ordinary people, but there are still limits!

Won't this cause sudden death?

"Orochimaru, why don't you go back and rest? Do you remember the last time you saw sunlight?"

After Orochimaru's last visit, he never left the lab again, forcing Uchiha Nan to deliver food to him every day on time. Moreover, Orochimaru never ate on time; often, when Uchiha Nan delivered dinner, Orochimaru hadn't even had lunch yet.

"No, Hokage-sama, I feel great right now!"
