Konoha's Love Master

Only members of the Uchiha clan can join the guard team. This is an unspoken rule that everyone accepts.

If they don't even give this, then what face do the Uchiha clan have as the two founding families of the village...

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Hinata Wuye's mind.

"Could it be that the Third Hokage is planning to use me to infiltrate the Guard and weaken the influence of the Uchiha clan while taking advantage of the increased prestige after the war?"

After thinking about it for a moment, he found that this was indeed a good plan.

Allowing other people to join the guard team would definitely cause a backlash from the Uchiha clan, but if he who possesses the Sharingan were allowed to join, the Uchiha clan would instead have a great sense of identity.

The Uchiha clan is very unique.

They are unwilling to get close to or integrate with other people in the village, so they act particularly arrogant, but they are united and gentle to their own people.

Therefore, they will have a great sense of identification with Wuye, or at least they will not be too repulsive to him.

"As expected of the Hokage..."

Hinata Muye thought to himself, his face expressionless, and just said: "Hokage, I can resume my pre-war duties as an emergency physician at Konoha Hospital and a medical teacher at the Ninja School."

The Sandaime nodded and said, "You can continue to do those as a part-time job when you have time, but unless you become the director of Konoha Hospital or the principal of the Ninja School, these two institutions cannot help you apply for Jonin."

Almost all the teachers in ninja schools are Chunins, and many of the doctors in Konoha Hospital are not even medical ninjas.

"It doesn't matter. I'm still young and there's no rush to apply for the Jonin exam."

Hinata Muye was determined not to get involved in this matter. Being a springboard for the Hokage to infiltrate the guard team would make him a thorn in the eyes of Uchiha.

The Sandai looked calm, his hands supporting his chin, and he said slowly: "I just said that you need this position now."

Hinata Wuye raised his head and suddenly thought of the current public opinion storm, and his brows frowned quietly.

"Could it be that the Third Hokage was the one behind all this to defame Tsunade?"

"No, it's more likely that it was Danzo. The Third Hokage wouldn't do such a thing. He was probably forced to do it..."

He simply put the blame on Danzo because he was Konoha's number one example of someone who was more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.

"The rumors about you and Tsunade have been everywhere these days, and it's obvious that someone is trying to discredit Tsunade," the Sandaime said. "The security of the village has always been entrusted to the security team, so if we want to find out who is behind this, only the security team can investigate and punish them openly."

Hinata Muye remained silent.

He is a member of the Hyuga clan, so he can't refuse the appointment as Hokage by force.

However, it is indeed more legitimate for the security force to investigate and resolve public opinion issues.

"But even if I join the guard team, I can't mobilize the Uchiha people to do anything." He looked up and said.

The Sandai smiled gently and said, "You can apply for the jonin examination. With the position of captain of the guard detachment, you have enough qualifications to apply for the jonin examination, not just your merits on the battlefield.

In this way, the overall score will be very high, and by then you should be able to obtain the title of Jonin by completing a team leading mission.

With the title of Jonin, you will automatically have the authority to command Uchiha ninjas below the rank of Jonin in the Guard."

Hinata Muye moved his mouth and said speechlessly: "Hokage, with my record, is it okay for you to grant me the title of Jonin? Is it necessary to go through the trouble of the assessment process?"

The Sandaime smiled and said, "If you only want to represent Hyuga as a jonin, then I can give you the title directly. But if you want to go higher, then the jonin examination must be rigorous and cannot leave any flaws. Only in this way can your resume be good enough. This is very important."

Hinata Muye's expression changed and he looked up.

The third generation just nodded slightly to him, as if hinting at something.

'You're actually considering me as a candidate, is it because of Kushina?'

He didn't think that his talent and performance on the battlefield would be recognized by the Third Generation. After all, Orochimaru was good in everything, and the Third Generation didn't seem to have any intention of pushing him to the top.

What's more, Wuye has both Hyuga and Uchiha blood, which theoretically makes him the worst candidate.

But the third generation is still seriously considering and preparing for this matter, so there is only one possibility...

The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki!

Nuclear weapons must be controlled by the Hokage, and now, Konoha's second generation Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is in the hands of Wuye.

Three generations are helpless.

"How about it, are you willing to join the guard team?"

The Sandai looked at him and smiled: "There are many things that you can't solve unless you stand at a higher position, because you don't have the power to use."

"Now that you are the Hokage, don't you become more cautious and constrained?"

Hinata Wuye quietly rolled his eyes.

After the Third Hokage became Hokage, he was no longer as decisive and resolute as when he answered the Second Hokage's question of who would cover his retreat. He had too many ties.

Of course, more importantly, his abilities are not that strong.

In terms of strength, he is not as strong as the first generation, and in terms of means, he is not as sophisticated as the second generation.

In the end, it could only be presented like that. Konoha, which was a good place, became worse and worse in his hands...

"I won't hide it from you. The Uchiha clique is indeed a big problem. If you can use your special identity to influence or even control the guard team, it will be a great achievement for the village." The third generation suddenly said frankly.

Hinata Muye looked up in surprise.

This was the first time that the Third Generation told him his purpose so bluntly.

Wu Ye was really tempted.

Although the Uchiha Guard has always been distant from the village, and even did nothing in the two Kumogakure kidnapping cases, their strength is unquestionable.

If we can really gather this group of arrogant and yandere people, they will be an invincible force!

Of course, if he didn't have Uchiha blood, he would never think of such a thing, because that would be wishful thinking.

"Okay, I accept." Hinata Muye said decisively.

The Sandai looked at his eyes and saw seriousness and eagerness to try.

His face relaxed and he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm not afraid that Hinata Muye will have any ideas, I'm just afraid that he will just lie down and do nothing.

Because once you are involved in Konoha's power field, you can only move forward and there is no way back...

"Dong dong."

At this time, there was another knock on the door.

Hinata Muye saw that Sandai's gentle expression gradually turned serious, and then his voice became a little deeper: "Please come in."

Uchiha Fugaku walked in: "Hokage-sama."

The Sandaime didn't even let him sit down like Hinata Muye, but raised his eyelids slightly, and said in an imposing manner: "Uchiha clan leader, what is the result of the self-inspection of the security team for what happened before?"

In the Hokage's office.

Uchiha Fugaku paused slightly when he heard the questioning tone of the Third Hokage.

Of course he knew what the Hokage was asking.

The night before, Kushina Uzumaki was kidnapped by the Hidden Cloud Ninja, but the security team not only did not notice it, they didn't even take any action to see if the other party had sneaked out of Konoha.

This is a huge dereliction of duty!

"Hokage, the guard team has already done their routine night patrol mission, but because the incident happened suddenly, and the village's defense formation allows people to exit but not enter, leaving from inside will not sound an alarm, and the guard team has no way..."

Uchiha Fugaku's explanation was interrupted by the Third Hokage waving his hand.

"Uchiha clan leader, as the Hokage, let me ask you one question, was it the guard team's fault in this matter?" he said in a deep voice.

Uchiha Fugaku looked at the Third Generation with vigilance, not sure what the other party wanted to do. Was he going to suppress the Uchiha?

Although this was a dereliction of duty on the part of the security team, the degree of responsibility they were held accountable for could be large or small, depending entirely on how severe the punishment the Hokage intended to give.

"It was the guard team's fault, but..."

He wanted to make some excuses, but Sandai shook his head and said, "Let the captain of the security team who was in charge of patrolling that night resign on his own."

Uchiha Fugaku was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little surprised.

It turns out that it means to pick it up high and put it down gently.

In the guard team, the jonin is the captain and has the authority to command a squad, while a squad leader is a special jonin, and there are at least ten of them in the guard team.

Moreover, if one is dismissed, another can be selected from within the Uchiha clan, so it will have no impact at all.

What Uchiha Fugaku was worried about was that the Third Generation would ask the Guard to give up some of its power as an explanation.

Although Uchiha still has the confidence to refuse, that undoubtedly means he does not take the Hokage seriously.

"Okay, I'll re-arrange the team leaders when I get back."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded, deliberately expressing gratitude: "Thank you, Hokage!"

"But what is Hinata Muya doing here?"

He suddenly glanced at Wu Ye, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Because Uchiha Mikoto...

The Sandai's expression relaxed and he became gentle again, saying, "Do you have any ideas about the new team leader?"

He gestured with his hand for Uchiha Fugaku to sit down, right opposite Hinata Muye.

"How is Uchiha Shinsuke?"

Uchiha Fugaku thought for a moment and said, "He has been at the Chunin level for six years. In terms of strength, it is completely enough to be promoted to Special Jonin."

The Sandaime shook his head slowly: "No, his character is too reckless and he is not suitable to be the captain."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded as expected.

He is the grandson of the great elder, so he mentioned him.

He then proposed several outstanding Chunins from the Uchiha clan, but was still rejected one by one.

Uchiha Fugaku looked up and saw the meaningful look in the Third Hokage's eyes. He finally understood: "Hokage-sama, do you have any good candidates?"

Is this what the three generations rely on?

Has someone in the tribe gained his trust?

But the Sandai smiled slightly, and to his surprise, he pointed at Hinata Muye: "How is he?"

"no!"

Uchiha Fugaku stood up almost instantly and blurted out the words of refusal.

"Ok?"

The third generation frowned.

Uchiha Fugaku paused again.

The Third Hokage has established his prestige through this Ninja World War.

To be realistic, if the Third Generation wanted to destroy the Uchiha clan, he could probably do it single-handedly.

What's more, there are ninjas like the Sannin, Hatake Sakumo, etc....

"Think again."

The three generations smoked opium calmly.

Uchiha Fugaku slowly sat back down.

He glanced at Hinata Wuye, who had a calm expression, and his expression gradually became complicated.

Putting aside his personal prejudice against Hinata Muye, and looking at this proposal from the family's perspective, it is not unacceptable.

If Hinata Muye is willing to join the Uchiha, he would be willing to be the captain.

And even if he didn't join the Uchiha, he wouldn't encounter much resistance if he joined the guard team.

What's more, the Great Elder has never given up the plan to bring Hinata Muye back to Uchiha...

Uchiha Fugaku pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Hokage, this is the first time that a non-Uchiha clan member has joined the guard team, and as a squad leader. Please allow me to go back and hold a clan meeting before making a decision."

The Sandai's expression relaxed: "Okay, go ahead."

In fact, when Uchiha Fugaku gave in, the matter was basically settled.

If he was not sure, he would find a way to refuse on the spot instead of bringing it to a family meeting to intensify the conflict.

Uchiha Fugaku took one last look at Hinata Muye, then opened the door and left.
