I have a bunch of relatives who want to be Hokage

"It's not that easy..." Nara Shikaku just sighed.

Chapter 3 Conversation

Sigh, sigh, I still have to go to class.

After Namikaze Minato became Hokage, Nara Shikaku saw a series of changes in the village. There were naturally many good things, but also many accumulated risks.

Regardless of the political philosophy of the Third Generation, he did put a lot of effort into maintaining stability.

In Nara Shikaku's view, stability must be the first thing.

The Nara clan did not need to take sides in Konoha. As long as they were stable, the Nara clan could live well by relying on family secrets and medicine business.

If it's not stable, it's hard to say.

The Uchiha Shingen in front of him, on the contrary, was the "unstable" beneficiary.

It is also one of the driving elements of this instability.

Nara Shikaku actually wanted to express something to this young man indirectly - can the intensity be less intense?

But judging from Uchiha Shingen's response to him, he either didn't understand what he meant, or deliberately pretended not to hear it.

No matter which one it is, it's very Uchiha.

As for Uchiha Shingen's statement that he didn't know, Nara Shikaku certainly wouldn't believe a word of it.

All decisions of the ninja clan are finalized at the clan meeting, and require a collective vote by the clan's jounin to take effect. This is the procedure for all ninja clans.

The decision-making mechanism of Konoha Hidden Village was also slowly developed based on this process.

Even if a Jonin like Uchiha Shingen leaves the village, he will have full right to know.

"Shingen, would you like to come to the school with me?" Nara Shikaku invited Uchiha Shingen.

Perhaps, we should communicate in a place where it is easier to distance ourselves.

"Okay." Uchiha Shingen nodded.

The two left the Jonin class office and headed to the Ninja School building.

In December, Konoha Hidden Village was at the peak of the cold wave. It had snowed a few days ago, but this did not affect the school's classes.

Villagers can be afraid of the cold and stay at home without going out, but ninjas can't.

What ninjas can't do, ninja school students can't do either.

When Nara Shikaku and Uchiha Shingen walked to the edge of the playground, the students were conducting a team mock battle under the leadership of their teacher.

They all saw the children of their own families.

The children fully reflected the position of their adults in the Konoha Ninja Army.

The Uchiha children always rush to the front, while the Nara children like to walk sideways.

Just like the adults of the two races behaved on the battlefield.

"Shingen, speaking of which, your student has graduated." Nara Shikaku looked at his child. His teammates were from Yamanaka and Akimichi, just like the tradition of the three clans.

"Itachi is not my student, I just worked as a tutor for a while." Uchiha Shingen said.

To be honest, he had never taught Uchiha Itachi ninjutsu.

There is no time at all.

The one who has been teaching Uchiha Itachi is Uchiha Shisui.

"That's a genius. He graduated in just one year."

"Here's the process."

Nara Shikaku was so speechless that he couldn't answer it for a while.

But he also knew that Uchiha Shingen was telling the truth.

There will be people like this in every ninja clan. In the ninja school, it is actually a matter of going through the process.

Taking Uchiha Itachi as an example, he definitely doesn't need to learn the Three Body Technique, he just needs to take those elective courses according to the direction of development he wants.

The significance of the ninja school to the ninja children lies more in getting to know their companions.

But graduating in one year, even if you go through the process, you can go very quickly.

"Monitor, have the children of your three tribes been working in groups since childhood? They cooperate very well." Uchiha Shingen was observing the trio of Ino, Deer and Butterflies.

The Sarutobi, Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans are known to advance and retreat together in Konoha Hidden Village. It is easy to give people the impression that Ino, Deer and Butterfly are all die-hard vassals of the Sarutobi clan.

But in fact, Nara and Yamanaka were forced to do so.

Because these two clans had no friendship with Sarutobi originally, the fat guys from the Akimichi clan were Sarutobi's allies, and they were very close ones. The two clans had an oath, and the Akimichi clan took the oath very seriously. Heavy, so he has been advancing and retreating together with Sarutobi.

In this way, Nara and Yamanaka would have to advance and retreat with Sarutobi. They and Akimichi would no longer be called allies, but would be brothers. If Akimichi went up, they would go up too.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen originally loved Nara and Yamanaka, and the two tribes gradually got used to it.

But it's just a habit.

When fighting Shimura Danzo, Akimichi was concerned about Sarutobi Hiruzen's feelings and did not take any action, but the two clans showed no mercy at all.

They had long disliked Shimura Danzo.

"Yes, our three tribes have been working hand in hand since the Warring States Period. It is not easy to get to where we are today." Nara Shikaku sighed.

He glanced at Uchiha Shingen, who looked at it with great interest and had already turned his attention to the children of the Uchiha clan.

Nara Shikaku decided to speak more clearly.

Uchiha Shingen is young, and because of this, he cannot be underestimated.

In the minds of all ninjas, Uchiha's most notable characteristics are his radicalness and unruly nature.

"Shingen, it's not easy for the village today." Nara Shikaku said, "Can you please advise Fugaku not to rush to run for the position of Hokage's assistant? You know, many people still have opinions about Uchiha. That's great. The situation can easily be ruined."

"A great situation?" Uchiha Shingen withdrew his gaze, "Squad leader, are you being deceived? You shouldn't be."

He persuaded Uchiha Fugaku to give up the establishment of the police department, not just to become a bad guy.

The struggle of ninjas is always about progress and never retreat.

The game of the ninja clan also emphasizes everyone getting what they need.

Giving benefits in exchange for an illusory friendship is something that the Ninja clan will not do. All those who have ever done this have died.

"Xingen, if you act like this, the village will be in chaos..."

"Monitor, look over there." Uchiha Shingen pointed to the playground.

Nara Shikaku looked in the direction he pointed.

He was a child of the Uchiha clan. His teammates were two civilian ninjas. He served as the sharp knife of his team. He was full of energy and yelled at the front.

However, the cooperation of his team was far inferior to that of the opposite team, Ino Shikacho. As a result, the Uchiha children suppressed the Akimichi children, but their teammates were played around by the Nara and Yamanaka children.

That is to say, he is really good at singing a one-man show with sharp swords, otherwise their team would have lost.

No, you just lost.

The teacher next to me has already started grading. This is a small team competition, and grades are based on overall performance.

"Monitor, our family is different from your three families. We don't have the help of brothers and families." Uchiha Shingen knew something, "Everything is done by oneself, and one's face is earned by oneself. Now in this 'great situation', No one rewarded it."

"Shingen, that's too much to say." Nara Shikaku said with worry in his eyes.

Uchiha Shingen confessed to him, but the attitude in which he confessed was more troublesome than he expected.

"Before Sarutobi entered the village, Uchiha and Senju joined hands to protect the village until now. I won't mention those bad things before. What do you mean by telling me these things now?" Uchiha Shingen asked. .

"Shingen, don't think too much, this is just my personal opinion." Nara Shikaku said.

"Monitor, I'm not stupid, and you're not Danzo, so why bother taking the blame?" Uchiha Shingen sighed and stopped talking.

He decided to go back to Uchiha Fugaku and start a wave of public opinion in the clan, so that this old Goubi could run for the position of Hokage's assistant.

I almost forgot about this, but luckily someone reminded me.

Chapter 4 Uchiha Fugaku’s decision

Uchiha Fugaku, as the leader of the Uchiha clan, actually doesn't have many hobbies in life.

First of all, he is not interested in power, he is interested in gaining reputation.

Serving as the leader of the Uchiha clan is the result of his interest.

After all, this position does not represent power, but reputation.

Even if the leader of the Uchiha clan wants to build more WCs in the clan area, he still has to go to the clan meeting and everyone will vote.

Then the clan leader has to be the first person responsible. Whenever the WC cultivator does something wrong, he has to take the blame.

Uchiha Fugaku originally ran for clan leader purely because he personally wanted to do something for the family and enjoy the admiration of the clan members. Because at that time, the family was really in a bad situation, and the previous clan leader's operations made him Wisdom fades.

But after becoming the clan leader, he realized that the reputation of being the clan leader of the Uchiha clan was really hard to earn.

So he regretted it long ago.

It's a pity that those grandsons are all ghosts. Every time he reveals his voice, a large number of people will jump out and shout that Uchiha cannot live without the Fugaku clan leader.

What a bastard!

But they were not the most assholes. The most assholes directly deprived him of his greatest hobby in life.

My handwriting is ugly, just say it! Why did you run outside and say that? ?

And are you so afraid that I will play with the brush again? You've only been back for a few days! ? Now everyone in the streets of Konoha knows that the leader of the Uchiha clan is both good and fun-loving!

God knows what price he paid to fight this "rumor"!

On this day, Uchiha Fugaku felt that the time was ripe, because that little bastard had been practicing and going to the jounin class diligently recently. It had been going on for several days and was very stable. Based on his careful observation these days, he determined , the little bastard will not suddenly come to his house.

Uchiha Mikoto also went out, carrying Sasuke to a party with her best friends.

He decided to code secretly, as his hands were itching for a long time.

The only uncertain factor is the eldest son who took a vacation by himself without permission.

Sorry, Itachi, daddy loves you!

After training the confused Uchiha Itachi out of the house, Uchiha Fugaku walked briskly into the study.

After entering this place, Uchiha Fugaku looked at the table that was slightly stained with dust with affectionate eyes. He first went to get a basin of water and wiped the table well.

Then he took out his Four Treasures of the Study.

Unable to bear it any longer, he sighed.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting!"

After setting up his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, at this moment, Uchiha Fugaku felt that his pupils were about to move.

He slowly reached out, held the brush, and took a deep breath of air.

ah! This rich ink smell!

right! That’s it!

"Eh? Chief, are you practicing calligraphy today?"

Uchiha Fugaku's hand that was about to write stopped.

A drop of ink fell on the rice paper, and a mass of ink stains quickly expanded on the white paper, which was shocking to see.

Uchiha Fugaku looked at the ink stain silently.

Sure enough, the abyss can still be peered into, but the human heart cannot be measured.

"Why are you here? Why don't you knock on the door?"

"I knocked on the door, Patriarch, but no one opened the door, but I sensed that your chakra is here." Uchiha Shingen looked at the paralyzed patriarch who remained motionless with doubtful eyes, "Chief, what are you doing? Why don't you write? The ink is dripping..."

"What are you writing?" Uchiha Fugaku put down the brush with a calm expression, "I stopped practicing calligraphy a long time ago. I just wanted to see if this paper can still be used. It's such a waste to keep it lying around."

Seeing Uchiha Shingen in front of him with an expression of "So this is the move", Uchiha Fugaku suddenly felt that his hands were very itchy!

Would it be bad to use Susanoo at home? It's better to be patient, otherwise you will have to hold a clan meeting again to renovate the house, because it will require land for construction.
