Doesn't anyone really think that Koharu and Mito Kabuto, who are so old that they can hardly walk anymore, still stick to their posts because they have a heart to serve Konoha?

The most important thing is that for the sake of balance of power, the Hokage will basically not appoint the head of the ninja clan as an elder.

At this time, because according to Konoha's current system, elders can be regarded as lifelong!

The leader of the ninja clan, the elder of Konoha, once these two are combined, the template will come out——

Danzo Shimura.

Danzo dared to directly usurp the throne after Tsunade was unconscious. One of the very important factors was that he had the support of the Shimura clan behind him!

The Shimura clan and the Sarutobi clan are inseparable from each other, so it can be seen that there are many twists and turns inside.

Now that Qianye wants to break the old rules and set a precedent, how can he not make the heads of these ninja clans excited?

As long as they become elders, they will work hard for the future of Konoha until the day they die of old age and lie in a coffin!

Hokage-sama really does keep his word!

From now on, they will be the absolute support of Lord Hokage. Have you seen my loyalty?

Hokage-sama, choose me, choose me!

If there weren't other ninja clan leaders nearby, they would have started to kneel down and lick him right now.

Uchiha Kagura felt a little uneasy.

The combination of elder and clan leader can certainly solve many trivial matters easily and allow the Hokage to get out of trouble.

However, everything has two sides.

In the process of taking office one after another, it is easy for the person in charge to form his own team, which quickly expands and is difficult to check and balance.

Is it too risky for the owner to do this?

However, such an important matter cannot be finalized in a few words. The position is limited, so these clan leaders will inevitably have to argue.

After the meeting, even if the head of the family doesn't like it, he will remind the head of the family of the dangers of this approach.

At this moment, Kakashi sitting nearby suddenly spoke, and his words immediately interrupted the harmonious atmosphere in the conference room.

"Hokage-sama, please forgive my offence. I don't think the elders can appoint the leader of the ninja clan at will."

"Chief Hatake Kakashi, what do you mean by this? Are you saying that we are secretly harming Konoha? Or are you mocking our incompetence?" Hinata Hinashi said coldly.

"Head of the Hyuga Hizashi Clan, I never meant this. It's just that Danzo Shimura has set a precedent. For the future of Konoha, Lord Hokage should consider it carefully."

Kakashi is using his body to block the spotlight.

They thought they were about to become elders, but Kakashi suddenly popped up, made an issue with Danzo Shimura, and tried to remind the Hokage of it.

After what he said, the Hokage might think carefully.

Real bastard, if you don’t want to go up, don’t block everyone’s way!

Uchiha Kagura's heart relaxed.

Kakashi is indeed a confidant who is trusted by the family master and is very loyal.

If the head of the family punishes Kakashi for this, I will definitely give him a nice word.

"Kakashi-kun is determined," Qianye said bluntly with a gentle attitude: "The newly established department has nothing to do with the original elder system."

"I named it the Cabinet."

"cabinet?"

The heads of the ninja clan frowned slightly and read the word carefully.

only......

Due to the short history of the ninja world, everyone will not be able to appreciate anything for a while.

Qianye did not show off and said directly: "The members of the cabinet are collectively called cabinet members. There are five permanent cabinet members on duty in the Hokage's office to assist me in handling daily affairs.

Using history as a mirror, we can know the ups and downs.

In view of the many shortcomings left by the Sarutobi regime, the newly established cabinet will not be lifelong.

Cabinet members are appointed by the Hokage and are only responsible to the Hokage.

The term of each cabinet member is five years. After five years, a performance evaluation will be conducted, and the weak will step down to make way for the better."

"The scope of the cabinet's functions includes the handling of Konoha's daily government affairs and the dispatch of tasks. It does not have the power to appoint personnel.

Cabinet members cannot be held by ministers of various departments, and after becoming cabinet members, they cannot hold other positions, including the position of clan leader.

The Ministry of Administration, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education, the Police Ministry, Prisons and other departments are responsible to the cabinet, but the ministers of these departments are on the same administrative level as the cabinet members.

In addition, the Anbu, Analysis Team, and Interrogation Department are under my direct control.

For tasks of A level and below, cabinet members can make their own decisions.

However, tasks involving B level must be jointly signed by at least two or more cabinet members.

A-level tasks require at least three or more cabinet members to jointly sign and take responsibility."

"If there is a dispute during the period, a vote can be held, and the result of the vote will follow the principle of majority submission.

If the outcome of the vote is difficult to determine, I will make the decision myself, and the Hokage has the right to veto."

“When encountering major or extremely important matters, you need to report to me as soon as possible, and I will convene a cabinet meeting to discuss it together.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Likewise, no matter what the outcome is, the Hokage also has the right to veto!"

Qianye did not form the cabinet just to hinder himself.

The power of veto and the power of personnel appointment are two powers that Qianye firmly holds in his hands.

The three special functional departments of the Anbu, Analysis Team, and Interrogation Department are only responsible to Qianye.

The cabinet has no power to intervene.

The Anbu can be understood as the Central Army, and the Interrogation Department and Analysis Team are somewhat similar to the Jin Yiwei, but the scope of functions of the two parties is far different.

They don't have as much power as Jin Yiwei.

Therefore, Qianye will reorganize and rebuild these departments in the future.

"The above are my arrangements for the establishment of the cabinet. If you have any better suggestions, please feel free to speak up as a supplement."

The clan chiefs looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

After listening to Qianye's words, they found that the newly established cabinet had many restrictions and was not as good as they imagined.

There is a five-year term. Once the term is up, Qianye can decide whether he can continue to serve as a cabinet member or not.

Gone are the good days of being carefree and happy just lying in this position and fishing in troubled waters.

But equally, the power of cabinet members is much greater than that of the elder system in the past!

In the past, the Hokage was the leader of all departments.

Elders only have the right to make suggestions, not execution.

Qianye delegates power generously, and they all have the right to decide on A-level tasks.

The major departments of education, medical care, administration, police, and prisons are also within their jurisdiction.

For these clan leaders, this is enough to easily cover up the many restrictions set by Qianye!

After Kakashi listened to the whole thing, he realized that he really worried too much.

'As expected of Hokage-sama, this is a genius arrangement, which can not only mobilize these clan leaders to the maximum extent, but also effectively prevent them from expanding their power and forming new threats.'

Kakashi did not hesitate and spoke first, blocking the other clan leaders' opportunity to 'make suggestions'.

"Lord Hokage, on behalf of myself, I completely abide by your will without any objection!"

Other clan leaders, you look at me and I look at you, secretly hating you.

It's Kakashi that little brat again!

They originally wanted to make a wise speech to see if they could get Hokage-sama to slightly relax the restrictions on cabinet members.

Now I'm fine, I can't say anything anymore.

By saying this, he is clearly stating that he believes that the system proposed by Hokage-sama is not perfect, and if it is not fully maintained, he will lose his position as a cabinet member.

He could only respond dryly, and then said that he had no objections.

It should be noted that there are only five cabinet seats.

They don’t think that everyone here can become a cabinet member!

Everyone knows that the Hokage will definitely place his cronies in the cabinet.

Uchiha Kagura is most likely one of them.

Hatake Kakashi responded so positively, I'm sure he got wind of it in advance, and he might be one of them.

After such a calculation, it seems that two of the five cabinet seats have been removed, leaving only three.

The competition is fierce!
