Transmigrating as the Third Hokage: Make Konoha Great Again!

"Look, it was just an example, why are you getting so worked up..."

"Therefore, if you set your sights on more than just Jonin, but on those formidable opponents, you need to find ways to increase your margin for error."

"Tolerance for mistakes is the fundamental dividing line between the strong and the weak."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered, "What if you created a Wind Release chakra mode..."

"Wind Release, a technique for manipulating air currents... If the form change reaches its limit, it should theoretically have the ability to fly or glide, or even increase one's own speed."

"However, this process will not be easy, after all, it is a pioneering effort."

Ninjutsu is not something that can be easily created.

Not only is a solid foundation required, but a crucial flash of inspiration is also indispensable. Without that spark of inspiration, the progress of innovation may be stuck for an unknown period of time.

This is why Tobirama Senju was feared by many.

He seems to have a bit too much inspiration in this area…

"It's not easy..."

Danzo Shimura sighed, "If only our teacher were here, if only I could talk to Tobirama about my ideas, he would definitely give me a lot of valuable advice."

"I'll give it a try myself. The idea is there, and I'm sure I can produce something."

Hiruzen Sarutobi kept a straight face, his mind filled with serious thoughts, trying to avoid showing any sign of laughter.

It's actually quite a ridiculous joke...

If our teacher really comes back to life, you'll be lucky if you don't target him relentlessly...

A super genius Uchiha, wouldn't that give you stress?

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't intend to tell anyone about Tobirama Senju's resurrection, as the more people who knew, the greater the possibility of a leak.

no matter who.

From another perspective, Shimura Danzo's subsequent actions towards Uchiha Tobirama, which were all based on genuine emotion, were the best performances and greatly helped the teacher win over the hearts of the Uchiha.

Danzo is going to have to suffer a lot.

"Hiruzen, are you feeling unwell? Did the shock affect your internal organs?"

"No, I was just thinking about some village affairs."

Hiruzen Sarutobi coughed lightly: "Why don't you use Edo Tensei to bring the master back to life, and then you can ask him?"

"Hiruzen, what are you talking about?" Shimura Danzo glared at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Those whose souls have returned to the Pure Land have already found peace and tranquility. If you were to say that Konoha has been attacked by the enemy to the point of being wiped out, that would be one thing, but to bother the teacher with such a trivial matter is truly unbelievable!"

"I don't want my teacher to think I haven't made any progress, that I have to rely on my seniors even for something this simple!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi seemed to be deep in thought.

Danzo Shimura's obsession seemed to be the position of Hokage, but it was closer to 'recognition'.

Ascending to the position of Hokage, in a sense, means that the deceased Tobirama Senju would 'recognize' him, and he, as the Third Hokage, would naturally also recognize him.

"You're right, it was just a joke."

Hiruzen Sarutobi silently recited a phrase in his mind:

"Impure World is obviously out of the question, but resurrection is a different story... Researching Wind Release Chakra Mode is a minor matter, but transforming the Uchiha clan into the form of the Will of Fire is a major one."

The Uchiha clan at present is not actually displaying the fighting power that this clan should have.

After all, he was tied up in Konoha, so he didn't bleed very often.

But once blood is drawn, the instability brought by the Sharingan becomes too great, and maintaining stability will no longer be as simple as it is now...

The Uchiha clan went mad and even killed their own members.

This was also Tobirama Senju's idea at one time.

Therefore, someone is needed to change the Uchiha's fundamental nature to resemble that of Konoha, and to infuse the Will of Fire into a state that even the emotional fluctuations brought about by the Sharingan cannot shake.

"Other aspects..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Danzo Shimura on the shoulder: "I don't want to talk about the Will of Fire with you anymore."

"Danzo, we were saved by Lord Tobirama with his life."

"He is the Hokage, and we are his guards."

Danzo Shimura listened silently.

"Now you are the Hokage's assistant."

"Most of the ninjas in the village are just like us back then."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said softly, "If you want to become a ninja like Tobirama-sensei, you have to understand and learn from his methods, right?"

"Be ruthless to your enemies, like the dead of winter; but always retain a spark of warmth for your own people..."

“A village without human warmth will not last long.”

"You should rest. I've granted you a special day off today..."

Danzo Shimura gazed at Hiruzen Sarutobi's retreating figure.

Is it humane?

Is this weakness, or a different kind of toughness?

Are you confident that you can make ninjas, who are originally just tools and consumables, act like human beings in this cruel ninja world?

“How arrogant, Hiruzen…” Shimura Danzo shook his head.

He couldn't fully accept the idea yet.

A woman came to mind.

This person is Nono, a former Root organization's top spy, known as the Walking Shrine Maiden.

Originally, Danzo Shimura planned to eliminate her after the operation concerning the secret techniques of Iwagakure.

This woman's abilities were too great, and Danzo Shimura didn't think she was very loyal to Konoha.

It's ridiculous that he's always thinking about leaving Root and becoming the director of some orphanage in the Land of Fire!

If the intelligence we possess were leaked, it could pose a threat to the village…

"Let's try this once, but don't kill the woman yet. Report it to Hiruzen and see what he does..."

Danzo Shimura let out a long breath and also walked towards the Hokage Building.

As for Hiruzen Sarutobi's mention of a holiday?

He's just a Hokage's assistant, why would he need a vacation!

The thought of Hiruzen Sarutobi at work made Danzo Shimura feel like a cat was scratching at his heart; he simply couldn't stay still...

058 If they're going to take down Kirigakure, I, Onoki, must lend a hand!

Hidden Rock Village.

Onoki carefully read Konoha's statement, his expression filled with emotion.

A moment later, he handed the documents to his son, Huang Tu, and said with a sigh, "The pressure of this 'shadow' is driving people to become ghosts..."

"Hiruzen Sarutobi is a kind and honest man, but his words have become so sharp these days."

After saying that, Onoki turned his waist, making a slight sound.

As people reach middle age, their once incredibly resilient bodies begin to show unusual signs.

In Onoki's view, the provocation from Kumogakure had angered Hiruzen Sarutobi, who held a dovish stance...

"The Hokage said the Third Raikage's ascension to the throne was illegitimate? Is that true, Father..."

The phrase "yellow earth" came out.

Onoki's lower back, which hadn't been hurting much before, suddenly felt like it had been hit by a hammer, and the pain instantly intensified.

"Yellow Earth, even though you're not cut out to be the Earth Shadow, that doesn't mean you can let your guard down!" Onoki criticized, his beard bristling and eyes wide.

"Read the history of the Ninja World War ten times!"

Huang Tu stood ramrod straight: "Yes, Lord Tu Ying!"

Seeing this, Onoki shook his head helplessly.

His son, though seemingly "stupid," possessed remarkable resilience and composure.

But stupidity is stupidity...

"Whether the Second Raikage's death was related to the Third Raikage, who knows besides himself?"

"But the Third Raikage was a true martial arts fighter, that's undeniable..."

"Tobirama Senju was negotiating peace with the Second Raikage when they were ambushed by the Gold and Silver Brothers, who were also martial artists..."

"Thunder and fire clash, both shadows perish, the rest rise to the top—how ​​pleasing to the ear!"

“Conspiracy theories don’t need a logical chain; they only need a point that aligns with their interests, and those with ulterior motives will naturally fill in the gaps.”

"It really does seem plausible..." Huang Tu's expression changed: "Will this affect Yunyin?"

"Yes, but not much."

Onoki floated in the air with his hands behind his back: "Although I despise Kumogakure and the Raikage, as an opponent, I have to admit that he is a charismatic leader."

"There might be some noise from the Hidden Clouds, but it won't affect anything."

"What's truly interesting is Kirigakure, where the speaker may be unintentional, but the listener is certainly attentive."

Onoki chuckled and recounted the entanglement between Hozuki Gengetsu, the Second Kage, and the Third Mizukage to Yoto.

"The Hidden Mist Village is going to be in chaos now, isn't it?" Huang Tu said solemnly. "Father, do you think the Third Hokage did this on purpose?"

Whether it was intentional or not is not important.

"The important thing is that he can disrupt the internal affairs of Kirigakure. No matter who he is or what he wants to do, I have to help him out!" Onoki made a gesture of slamming his fist on the table, but because he was in the air, he missed.

There was a moment of awkwardness.
