The domineering Uchiha drove the Third Hokage mad!

At noon, a new owner appeared in front of the window of the Hokage's office.

Fugaku Uchiha looked down at the bustling Konoha Village below.

The streets were bustling with people. Ninjas hurried by, commoners haggled over prices at the market, and children chased and played.

He exclaimed excitedly, "The transfer of power is complete! Is this what it feels like to be Hokage?"

Uchiha Mitsumine said seriously, "After the departure of the Sarutobi, Utatane, Mito, and Shimura clans, there are too many vacant positions. Have you considered how to allocate them?"

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha walked to the Hokage's desk and sat down.

At this moment, he was in an excellent mood: "The head of the security department will be Yashiro, and Mitsumine will be the deputy head. Ryūka will go to the Anbu, and Minato Namikaze will become the principal of the Ninja Academy..."

Uchiha Mitsunori frowned slightly, then suddenly interrupted, "Excuse my bluntness, but sending Namikaze Minato to the Ninja Academy to retire is such a waste."

Fugaku Uchiha raised an eyebrow and said, "Mitsubin, what are your thoughts?"

Uchiha Mitsumine said with a serious expression, "The village's ninja numbers have drastically decreased, and we need sufficient deterrence. The Hokage is extremely busy and can't handle everything personally. Orochimaru has defected again. If we keep a force like Minato Namikaze on the shelf... it would be a waste... We should appoint Minato Namikaze as the head of the Anbu!"

Uchiha Ryuka raised his fist and shook it: "So you mean, you want me to be that blond kid's right-hand man?"

Uchiha Mitsumine quickly waved his hand, a sly smile on his face: "Brother Ryuho, don't be angry. I'm doing this for the sake of the village. In terms of strength, Namikaze Minato is indeed... stronger than you! Ha~ha~ha!"

Uchiha Ryuka interrupted impatiently, glaring at him fiercely: "Fine, fine, fine, anyway, that kid is really strong, I don't mind being his assistant. But, Mikado, let's go to the training ground to practice later."

Fugaku Uchiha watched the interaction between the two, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

He looked at Uchiha Hachimoku and asked, "What do you think of this arrangement?"

The Eighth Hokage stroked his beard and slowly nodded: "Alright, but I suggest that the logistics and finance departments must be controlled by our own people. I will serve as the finance minister, Mitsumine will be promoted to the head of the security department, and the logistics department will be handed over to the Kurama clan chief."

Fugaku Uchiha's gaze swept back and forth between the two men before he finally nodded: "It's settled then, Sanmine, the security department is in your hands."

Uchiha Mitsunori's face fell dramatically: "Huh? Does that mean I won't have time to slack off?"

Uchiha Ryuka sneered, "Serves you right."

A light laugh suddenly filled the conference room.

Looking at his clansmen who had followed him for many years, Fugaku Uchiha felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

"But what about the medical department? Koharu Utatane's position is vacant. Also, we currently only have Hiashi Hyuga as an advisor elder, so we need to add more."

Uchiha Mitsunori immediately chimed in, "Princess Tsunade can replace Koharu Utatane as the head of medical affairs and also serve as an advisor elder. Nara Shikaku can also become an advisor elder; his wisdom and network of connections can help us quickly stabilize the situation in the village."

Fugaku Uchiha raised an eyebrow: "Sure, but will Tsunade be willing to come back?"

Thinking of Tsunade, a peculiar thought suddenly occurred to Uchiha Mitsumine.

Therefore, he confidently said, "I am confident that I can persuade her to return to Konoha."

Hearing Sanfeng's assurance, they stopped worrying about the issue.

......

In the afternoon, the brand-new Hokage robe was finally completed.

Standing in front of the mirror, looking at his red and white divine robe, Fugaku Uchiha felt an indescribable emotion surging within him.

Perhaps due to a sudden moment of nervousness, he abruptly asked, "Sanfeng, what should I say in my speech later?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mitsunori's eyes lit up: "Let's talk about what the villagers are most concerned about: the back wages owed to the ninjas... post-war medical care... children's education!"

The Uchiha clan members were already lined up outside, each with a proud gleam in their eyes.

A clear and resounding voice rang out: "Congratulations to Clan Head Fugaku on becoming the Fourth Hokage!"

Fugaku Uchiha took a deep breath and strode towards the high platform in Konoha Square.

The Konoha Square was teeming with people, as villagers surged toward the central platform like a tidal wave.

"Look! That's Lord Fugaku Uchiha!"

"I never imagined... that someone from the Uchiha clan would become Hokage!"

"Shh, keep your voice down. I heard he personally ended the corruption of high-ranking officials like Hiruzen Sarutobi."

......

Hearing the praises around him, Fugaku Uchiha, the tool, was somewhat smug and dazed.

(Note: Mitsumine has no interest in becoming Hokage; he wants to be Daimyo and have women on both sides!)

Fugaku Uchiha paused for a moment, then took a step forward.

In an instant, the entire square fell silent, and thousands of eyes turned to him.

"My fellow countrymen in Konoha."

"Today, I stand here not as the head of the Uchiha clan, but as the Hokage of all of you."

Uchiha Sanfeng started clapping, and a round of applause immediately followed from below the stage.

"For the past thirty years, our village has been corrupted by greed. The ninjas who should have been fighting on the front lines have instead been hiding in the rear, making a fortune off the war; the funds that should have been used to compensate the families of the fallen have flowed into the pockets of some people."

"But all of that will change starting today! I announce three new policies that will take effect immediately:"

"First, the ninjas' overdue wages will be paid in full within three days!"

"Secondly, medical expenses will be permanently halved! All ninjas wounded in the war will receive free treatment for life!"

"Third, I plan to establish a cultural school where all school-aged children without ninja talent, regardless of whether they come from ninja families, can attend for free!"

This time, the villagers started clapping enthusiastically, and the cheers almost lifted the square off its heights.

On a rooftop in the distance, Minato Namikaze's gaze was somewhat complicated, but it eventually turned into a relieved smile.
