Chapter 198: In order to protect the purity of Konoha, the Great Purge Movement!
"The positions of cabinet members are high and powerful, and the clan leaders have worked hard and made great achievements. Both their qualifications and abilities are sufficient to hold the position of cabinet members."
This sentence made everyone burst into laughter.
Qianye was showing his attitude to them.
Everyone is qualified to join the cabinet!
They continued to sit on the chairs, waiting for Qianye to say the next 'but'.
This ‘but’ represents the specific requirements for joining the cabinet!
Under the expectant gazes of all the ninjas, Qianye said calmly: "However, the cabinet seats are limited, and only those with talent will occupy them."
"And after joining the cabinet, you will need to resign from your current positions. I hope you will make your decision after careful consideration."
Who is talented and who is talentless?
This is something that is difficult to define accurately. Everyone here, except Uchiha Kaokura, is the clan leader.
Those who can become the leader of a family are all the most outstanding among their peers in the family in their time.
So what does Qianye mean by his words?
Everyone was thinking secretly in their hearts.
Are they asked to make a choice or something else?
They can't figure it out.
Qianye glanced over, taking into account the changes in everyone's expressions, and said:
"I will find Tsunade after some time. She is the last glory of the Senju clan and the Sannin of Konoha. She has a place in the cabinet."
Qianye reserved a seat first. This was to show his attitude to the outside world and to get vaccinated in advance.
You see, I can even accept the Sannin, so the statement I made to Jiraiya a few days ago was not directed at him.
But there are indeed many doubts about him.
In addition, I can accept even the Sannin. As long as there are no problems with you, you don't have to worry about being liquidated.
No one has any objection to this.
Sannin does have this qualification.
Moreover, Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, can join the cabinet. For these 'quasi-cabinet members', there are only advantages and no disadvantages.
Tsunade, the founder of medical ninjutsu, has a very high reputation in Konoha.
After Qianye said this, he took the initiative to walk out of the room, leaving room for everyone to discuss.
Uchiha Kagura asked in a low voice: "Kakashi-kun, are you ready to apply to join the cabinet?"
Kakashi hesitated again and again, and finally shook his head imperceptibly, and replied in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Hokage-sama has other plans for me."
Uchiha Huokang understood clearly that it seemed that the head of the family had only arranged for him to enter the cabinet.
But in this case, would the proportion be too small?
There is only one seat.
Forget it, why do I think so much?
The master of the house has his own considerations. What I should do is to do everything the master of the house has asked me to do.
Inuzuka Clan, the leader of the Inuzuka clan, raised his arm and put it upright on the table. He put his thumb into his mouth and bit his fingers up and down with his sharp tiger teeth. The smell of blood soon filled his mouth.
She was thinking about whether she should take the initiative to apply for cabinet membership.
Compared with other ninja clans here, the Inuzuka clan is actually very embarrassed.
There is only so much strength.
The family is not a wealthy or wealthy family.
Compared with other clan leaders, she really has nothing to offer, so the chances of Qianye choosing her to join the cabinet are slim.
But the opportunity to join the cabinet is right in front of us, and it would be a pity to give it up like this.
What if, what if the request is approved after it is submitted?
She firmly believes that as long as she can join the cabinet, the Inuzuka clan will be able to reach a higher level!
Therefore, even if the chance is very low, she will give it a try!
Moreover, even if she cannot join the cabinet, she can still express the attitude of the Inuzuka clan to Qianye.
Her beast-like intuition told her that a new storm might soon appear in Konoha.
Aburame Zhiwei, the leader of the Aburame clan, sat quietly in her seat.
He always wears a pair of sunglasses on his face, making it impossible to know what he is thinking through his eyes.
'Should we, the Aburame clan, apply to join the cabinet, or should we continue as before and remain the same?'
Power is poison.
It's beautiful, but also dangerous.
He knew that after entering the political whirlpool of the cabinet, it would be difficult for the Aburame clan to maintain their past status.
Soon, he made the same decision as Inuzuka Claw.
Apply for cabinet membership!
He could clearly see the changes in the expressions of the clan leaders. At this time, if he didn't follow the crowd and apply to join the cabinet, he might become an outlier.
Moreover, the Aburame clan really needed to show their loyalty to the Godaime on this occasion.
Needless to say, the three Zhu, Lu and Die families reached a consensus early on.
Over hundreds of years, the deep relationship between the three families has allowed them to advance and retreat together. When faced with major decisions, Lu is basically the leader.
At this time, the sunlight outside the window penetrated through the glass window, leaving light spots of different sizes.
Most of Hinata Hinashi's face was just blocked by the light spots, so that his whole person looked a little uncertain.
The temptation of being a cabinet member is too great, but if you want to join the cabinet, you must first resign from the position of clan leader.
As a wealthy family for thousands of years, the Hyuga clan has a profound foundation.
Coupled with the cruel system of clan division and family division, every clan leader of the Hyuga clan can live a life as free and easy as a god.
What about the cabinet members?
You have to resign as the clan leader, and after joining the cabinet, you have to pass an assessment every five years.
If I can no longer serve as a cabinet member, can I become the patriarch again after returning to the family?
Stop dreaming!
No mature ninja clan will tolerate the position of clan leader being vacant for five years!
How could they be willing to accept that they could not continue to serve as cabinet members and could not return to the position of clan leader?
Power is a poison that, once tasted, sinks deep into the bone marrow, making it impossible to get rid of.
However, Hinata and Hinata would be even more unwilling to become a cabinet member!
Seven years ago, the envoy from Kumoyin Village came to Konoha and tried to kidnap his biological daughter, but he was shot dead on the spot.
As a result, after the incident, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked the Hyuga clan to hand over the murderer in order to calm the anger of Kumogakure Village!
In the end, his brother died in his place.
Let’s look at the Uchiha clan again.
In every ninja war, he never backed down a step and worked hard without complaining.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What’s the result?
Due to the various schemes of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, they were gradually weakened and almost ended up being exterminated.
So, what about the head of the Hyuga clan?
Only by entering the real center of power can the Hyuga clan gain real protection!
While thinking about it, Hinata and Rizu slowly figured out Qianye's intentions.
Cabinet members are evaluated every five years and whether they can be succeeded or not is said to be based on merit.
In fact, Qianye can still decide the matter with one word.
In other words, if you want to continue to serve as a cabinet member and stay at the center of power in Konoha after joining the cabinet, you must curry favor with Qianye.
At the same time, due to term limits and system restrictions, after the original clan leader joins the cabinet, the Ninja clan will inevitably elect a new clan leader.
The old and new patriarchs might be able to get along harmoniously at first.
But over time, gaps can easily develop.
After the new patriarch has tasted the taste of power, he will not be willing to act as a puppet at the mercy of others.
The cabinet members are high and mighty, and the new clan leader is still his former subordinate.
It is absolutely impossible for them to bend the knee and flatter their former subordinates.
What's even better is that most of the cabinet members are born from major ninja clans.
As a result, Qianye can indirectly control these ninja clans through this system and quickly establish an interest system with him as the core!
To be politically incorrect, it is indeed difficult for civilian ninjas to surpass those from the ninja clan.
Because the starting lines for both sides were different from the beginning.
With the power of the ninja clan in hand, Qianye's rule can be said to be impregnable.
Of course, there are also disadvantages to the cabinet system.
The five cabinet members united and could completely sideline the Hokage.
But will Qianye feel scared because of this?
No, it won't!
He has the confidence to overthrow everything!
Half an hour later, Qianye walked in.
'This young man...' Hinata Hidashi glanced at him secretly from the corner of his eye, and was horrified in his heart: 'What a monster!'
Qianye's perception was so sharp that he turned to face Hinata and showed a peaceful smile.
Hinata Hizu's heart tightened and he quickly smiled.
Unknowingly, his attitude towards Qianye changed drastically.
From being very self-sufficient at the beginning, he has become this humble person now.
Qianye faced Hinata Hizu's smile, knowing in her heart what the other person had probably thought of.
He didn't take it seriously either.
This is an honest conspiracy.
Cabinet members are the center of power in Konoha!
Even if they figured out Qianye's plan, they still had to dive in head first.
No clan leader really treats power like dirt.
Of course, if you want to make this system stable, Qianye must also let everyone enjoy the benefits.
This is not a difficult task for Qianye.
He's a jerk.
The hanging here is not just a golden finger.
With his current status, he can completely use what he saw in his past life to achieve the purpose of harvesting wealth.
Ninjas, like other professions, run around all day just for money!
Qianye took his seat and asked, "Has everyone thought about it?"
Hinata Hizu is not a person who is procrastinating. He made up his mind and did not hesitate anymore. He was the first to stand up and express his position:
"Hokage-sama, I, Hyuga Hizashi, am willing to resign as the head of the Hyuga clan today to assist you in handling government affairs. Please approve!"
Hinata Hizu's first statement was beyond everyone's expectations.
Qianye thought the first one to stand up would be Nara Shikaku, but to his surprise, it was Hinata Hizashi.
It really surprised him that Hyuga Hizu decided to step down as the head of the Hyuga clan in such a short period of time as a request to join the cabinet.
The clan and family division system of the Hyuga clan determines that the clan is completely different from other ninja clans.
It would not be an exaggeration to describe the head of the Hyuga clan as the 'Emperor of Earth'.
But this had no impact on him.
Be it Hinata Hizashi or Nara Shikaku, as long as they don't defect from the village, they all have to serve him.
Hinata Hizatsu took the lead in the charge, and other ninja clan leaders also expressed their stance, with similar words.
Qianye listened carefully one by one, then slowed down his speaking speed and his voice became calm and powerful:
"I feel everyone's desire to serve Konoha, but this matter is very important. I made a hasty decision, which is not only irresponsible to Konoha, but also disrespectful to everyone."
"Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock sharp, I will announce the results to everyone here. At the same time, I will notify Konoha Daily to announce the results to Konoha. What do you think?"
Qianye silently praised himself in his heart.
The fact that he specifically asked for everyone's opinions is enough to show that he didn't do anything.
Hmm~~
It can be seen from this that compared to other Kage, he is the political and moral light of the ninja world!
The clan leaders such as Hinata and Hizu naturally agreed without any objection.
However, he made up his mind to secretly visit their Hokage-sama after the meeting.
There is no special purpose, just to send gifts.
This is also normal.
"Calling everyone here, in addition to forming the cabinet, there is another thing I want to tell you."
"A few days ago, on our way back, the remnants of the roots took advantage of the lack of defense power behind Konoha to sneak into Konoha.
Afterwards, he launched a frenzied attack on the ninja school, killing 9 children and injuring 58 children. After the culprit of this extremely vicious incident was arrested, he was tortured with ninjutsu and was suspected to be related to Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas.
.”
"Uchiha Huokang, will send detailed information to everyone."
Uchiha Huokang distributed the information prepared by the tribe members one by one.
What happened has happened. After reading the information, everyone felt angry and shocked.
They all thought about the purpose of Qianye's last words.
Are you going to take action against Jiraiya?
But it shouldn't be, their Hokage has just nominated Tsunade to join the cabinet.
So, what exactly does their fifth generation want to do?
I have to mention something here.
Qianye asked Konoha to make a public statement to the ninja world and asked Jiraiya to return to the village to defend himself. These ninjas who left the village to fight with him did not know.
Jiraiya's reputation is very high. Because he comes from a civilian family, many civilian ninjas regard him as their idol.
On the way back, if everyone knew about Qianye's announcement, some troubles would inevitably arise.
Qianye didn't have the heart to be a nanny, so he patiently explained.
Naturally, there was no external explanation.
Therefore, they didn't know about it until Qianye explained it to them.
"I believe it is impossible for Jiraiya-senpai to do such a thing to Konoha.
Let him return to the village to defend himself, but also to give an explanation to the dead and injured children."
"However, after the statement was issued, some ninjas in Konoha secretly gathered together, took the opportunity to cause trouble, and lashed out to smear me.
It is said that I, Uchiha Qianye, summoned Jiraiya back to massacre him and all the ninjas who had followed Sarutobi Hiruzen."
Everyone was shocked and didn't dare to breathe.
I was afraid to hear that there were ninjas from my own family among these people.
"Their whereabouts are mysterious. Due to lack of manpower, their specific identities will not be found out for a while."
Everyone's hearts pounded and they slowed down for half a beat.
Find out and they are afraid.
If it is not found out, they are even more afraid!
They were afraid that Qianye would use this as an excuse to escalate the matter.
By then, there will probably be a bloody storm in Konoha that will make people laugh!
"I believe that all the clan leaders are dedicated to the public good and have no second thoughts. However, sometimes there are many people with mixed opinions, and it is inevitable that there will be foolish and loyal elements of the Sarutobi regime."
Qianye's eyes were cold: "After I succeeded as Hokage, due to the situation, I allowed these foolish loyalists to escape."
"I thought they would get back from their lost ways and didn't want to argue with them, but I didn't expect them to be unrepentant! They actually used such a tragic incident to spread rumors and stir up trouble!"
"In order to protect the purity of Konoha, I decided to launch a purge campaign against these remaining remnants!"
