"Huh? Me? What could Lord Hiruko possibly want with me?" "I don't know either," the ninja said before leaving.
Kazeka Koyuki immediately looked at the head maid with pleading eyes, like a wounded fawn seeking protection.
The head maid blinked and finally nodded.
"Konoha is the territory of the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade. Although I don't know what she wants to do... since she has invited you, please go there first."
"Alright." Feng Hua Xiaoxue nodded in agreement, pretending to be calm, and then slowly walked out of the room with her maid.
Only after she was sure that the head maid could no longer see her did she, like a carefree fawn, take off with her short legs and rush toward the Hokage's office at lightning speed, as if something terrifying was chasing her.
She had been in contact with Hiruko and knew his personality.
Unlike others, this Hokage support would definitely be willing to cover for her! And... she really wanted to know what Hiruko had been doing these past two days.
Did he actually succeed in accomplishing what he said he would do last time?
She was really curious; that curiosity was like a little bug crawling around in her heart.
The girl skipped happily and quickly ran to the Hokage's office.
But today there were many people in the Hokage's office, and they were filming something around Hiruko.
Hiruko picked up and put down his glasses, discussing something with someone who seemed to be the director. His serious expression made it seem as if he was sculpting a work of art.
Kakashi, slightly older than her, was holding a piece of information and waiting outside, looking bored, like a doll forgotten in a corner.
Chapter 310 Hit and Buy
"Mr. Hatake".
Kazakura Koyuki politely stepped forward to greet them, then looked inside, "What is Lord Hiruko, the Hokage's assistant, doing...?"
"Rehearse the speech."
"Huh, a rehearsal? Is it going to be broadcast throughout Konoha?"
"No, it's television."
"Television...has television become widespread in Konoha?" Even though the Land of Snow is small, it is still a country, and Kazahana Koyuki is aware of this new product.
However, due to various reasons, television is not very popular at present, and the programs are rather boring. She doesn't like it very much, as if she is watching a soulless machine.
"The adoption rate is still relatively low, but if you really have to..."
Kakashi nodded, "It's just that the Hokage's assistant has run into a bit of trouble..."
"Trouble? What is it? Can I help?" Facing the princess's curious gaze, Kakashi felt immense pressure, as if he were under a spotlight.
"This is a problem, well... the Hokage wanted to appear dignified and decisive, so he put on glasses."
But he also felt that taking off his glasses would make him appear more sincere and frank.
But the effect he wanted was... dignified yet sincere.
But he can only choose one of the two.
"Wow..." Feng Hua Xiaoxue's eyes became even brighter, sparkling with curiosity and excitement.
Because she had never encountered anything like this before, it was like an interesting puzzle that drew her in to solve it.
"Could the Hokage's assistant take off his glasses first, and then put them back on when the lecture officially begins?"
"This will probably only make him seem indecisive, like someone who can't make up his mind."
"Then... what should we do?" Feng Hua Xiaoxue was troubled, her brows furrowed as she pondered deeply.
"My suggestion was a monocle—but the Hokage assistant said he wasn't Amon, so he threw me out." Although she didn't know who Amon was, Kazahana Koyuki still found the whole thing amusing, like a fun game.
...The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, was incredibly tolerant of Kakashi, allowing him to say whatever he wanted, just like she would her own younger brother.
He really is a kind person.
As Feng Hua Xiaoxue thought this, it seemed that the rehearsals inside could no longer continue.
Hiruko gestured for everyone to leave, then called Kakashi inside.
Feng Hua Xiao Xue immediately followed, like a little tail.
"Kakashi, what is it now?"
"That's right, Lord Hiruko. The videotapes that you asked Lady Tsunade to complete have all been recorded and sold out."
"Really? That's wonderful news." Hiruko gestured for Fuuka Koyuki to sit down while pouring her tea, his movements elegant and practiced.
"If only everything went as smoothly as it did this time."
When Hiruko first ventured into the television business, in addition to long-term planning, he also had the idea of advertising for three-wheeled vehicles.
But right now, the three-wheeled vehicles are sold out, so there's no need for advertising at all. On the contrary, the TV station issue hasn't been resolved yet.
Of course, he knew that his own greed played a part in this... but the resistance from the ninja world was indeed not to be underestimated.
Even selling courses was fraught with difficulties, but fortunately, he took a roundabout approach and found a breakthrough by approaching Tsunade.
The first time is always difficult, but once you get started, things should go smoothly afterwards.
“But Hokage-sama…” Kakashi hesitated for a moment before delivering the bad news, “The ones who bought Tsunade-sama’s videotapes this time are all powerful clans… They joined forces to buy out the entire videotape collection…”
The smile on Hiruko's face gradually disappeared.
"Buyout? Why?" As a top-tier medical ninja, Tsunade's achievements naturally attract much attention.
Beiluhu knew that the large family would definitely buy some for their children and nephews to study, which was only natural.
What's the purpose of buying out the videotapes? Are there really that many medical ninjas in those families? This is a sensitive question.
Kakashi hesitated.
Feng Hua Xiaoxue cleverly covered her ears, pretending not to hear anything.
"Which families specifically?"
"Besides the Uchiha and a few of our staunch allies... the others, including the Hyuga..."
"Is Japan really that stupid?"
"No...no...it's just...the Hyuga elders are very powerful..." Kakashi had no choice but to continue.
"They seem to not want Lady Tsunade's experience to leave Konoha..." It's not that they don't want it to leave Konoha, it's that they don't want ordinary people to come into contact with it.
Hiruko's gaze sharpened.
Leaving aside other families, the Hyuga clan has a history of such behavior.
They wouldn't even allow the family to separate and learn the secret techniques.
Hiruko realized that he had been making some assumptions—this was actually a struggle for the right to speak, rather than simply a matter of videotapes.
In the ninja world, knowledge is power.
If you lack bloodline, you can make up for it with knowledge—just like Kabuto, who went from an unknown ninja to one of the later bosses.
Although they were still no match for the Otsutsuki family, it can be said that knowledge changed their fate.
And these are things that large families naturally do not want to see.
They are born with a desire to monopolize knowledge and lineage.
Given the opportunity, they will definitely come up with a system similar to the Nine-Rank System.
They certainly knew the drawbacks of doing so, but human desires are always like that... Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue and conflict.
Konoha appears peaceful on the surface, but the struggle for power has never ceased.
This refers to the so-called master-disciple relationship and family conflict.
The ninja system in Konoha is somewhat like a university.
Konoha Academy only teaches the basic Three Body Techniques and some advanced techniques.
As for future development, it all depends on the ninjas themselves.
For genin who are actually going to the battlefield, this level of education is practically sending them to their deaths.
Clan ninjas, on the other hand, are in a much better situation because they have their own clan's secret techniques.
At least, they can still get support from other clans' ninjas.
If this continues, clan ninjas will inevitably become stronger and stronger, and in the end, ordinary ninjas will only be cannon fodder.
The Jonin leadership system was designed to change this trend.
The Jonin were like mentors, giving ordinary ninjas a way to survive—just look at the later Konoha 12; their composition is quite interesting.
Ying Ge and Tu Zi Ge are both beneficiaries of this system.
Tu Zi Ge turned evil halfway through, and Ying Ge's teammates were too strong.
In fact, as one of the new three ninjas, Sakura has also completed a class leap.
Hiruko could understand the difficulties of reality, but the current actions of the major clans... indeed, the popularization of ninjas was inevitable.
He didn't want to blame anyone, because if he were the head of a family, he would have done the same.
However... besides putting pressure on the other ninja villages, he also likes to put pressure on Konoha.
He knew that if he went to negotiate with those families at this time, they would definitely give him face.
But Hiruko didn't like repeating the same things.
"Kakashi, they don't want to discuss these things, do they?" "I'm afraid so..."
"Alright, starting tomorrow, using Tsunade's own recordings as a model, I will be testing all the medical ninjas in Konoha." Hiruko tapped his fingers, declaring the fate of the medical ninjas.
"Those who pass will receive improved treatment and honors. Those who fail can retake the exam, but if they keep failing... we in Konoha do not support those who are merely filling positions." If a clan wants a ninth-rank official, then Hiruko will give them a civil service exam.
The more they tried to stop him, the less he would back down.
He refused to believe that making a television could be so difficult.
Come on, hurt each other.
Sensing Hiruko's determination, Kakashi almost cried.
It wasn't that he was on the family's side, but... "But... taking Lady Tsunade as a role model, isn't that a bit too difficult..."
