Naruto: Starting with the power of two systems

"Congratulations to Lady Tsunade on becoming the Fifth Hokage."

"Lady Tsunade looks very well. Did something happy happen?"

Tsunade was a little speechless. Had her complexion really improved?

It must be because of that man's care.

"It's probably because life is better back in the village."

She made up some excuse to brush it off; would she really tell the other person the real reason?

This is of course impossible.

Shikaku didn't believe that was the reason. How could Tsunade starve while living outside?

With the wealth of the Senju clan, even though Tsunade often loses at gambling, she should still have some money left over and her life shouldn't be too bad.

Since Lady Tsunade was unwilling to talk about it, he naturally wouldn't press her for details. On the contrary, he had an even bigger question in his mind.

"Does Lady Tsunade know why the Uchiha clan gave up the position of Fifth Hokage? Weren't they always very determined to hold onto it?"

The Uchiha are a proud clan, and naturally only the position of the Fifth Hokage is worthy of their status in the village.

The only people in the village who would be willing to give up their positions are the Senju clan.

Even their three clans of pigs, deer, and butterflies don't have such a big face.

Did Tsunade, a representative figure of the Senju clan, make some kind of deal with them?

Lu Jiu was a little puzzled.

When Tsunade heard Shikaku ask this question, she calmly placed her hands on the table and said.

"Who knows? Maybe they'll change their minds all of a sudden."

She did not want to tell Nara Shikaku about her deal with the Uchiha clan.

Initially, it was because of the need to sacrifice oneself.

But the result was the opposite, and now she is quite satisfied.

Aside from the issue of muting.

It was indeed very comfortable to have contact with a man after so long.

She didn't want to continue the conversation with Nara Shikaku on this topic and changed the subject.

"I've just returned to the village and am not very familiar with its affairs. I plan to promote you to become a formal advisor elder of Konoha Village. Are you willing?"

Nara Shikaku is a smart man, and with his assistance, managing the village should be easier for me.

Moreover, Shikaku is still in his prime and wouldn't be as foolish and arrogant as the previous advisors.

Only in this way can the village be brought into a new era.

Nara Shikaku naturally agreed, as the village now had a new generation of leaders.

Things haven't settled down yet.

He has the ability, so of course he will do his part for the village. Fortunately, the situation is not as serious as it was for the Third Hokage.

The four high-ranking officials at the time considered the Uchiha clan to be terrorists who threatened the safety of the village.

However, it turned out that the Uchiha clan had no ambition to rebel, and of course, they didn't need to rebel.

They don't even care about the Hokage position anymore.

They will definitely become the central force for stabilizing the village in the future, which is very meaningful.

This makes it easier for their top leaders to take action.

Chapter 219 The Position of Advisor Elder

In the Hokage's office, Nara Shikaku readily accepted Tsunade's invitation.

He even offered suggestions.

"Lady Tsunade, although the Uchiha clan has withdrawn from the election, we cannot neglect this clan."

"On the contrary, we should try to win them over to your side."

Tsunade began to think after hearing what Nara Shikaku said.

Although she made a promise with Ryosuke, this clan has indeed always been trying to outdo the Senju clan.

They wanted to seize the Hokage position and surpass the Senju clan.

Even if Ryosuke is able to forcibly suppress the wishes of those clansmen and make them submit, the pressure must be immense.

If I were to give them a high-level position, would that help reduce their stress?

He looked at Nara Shikaku and said.

“You’re right. Let’s give them an advisory elder position. After all, they deserve it.”

Nara Shikaku was surprised that his suggestion was immediately agreed to by Tsunade, and that Lady Tsunade even generously offered him the position of advisor elder of the Uchiha clan.

I was a little surprised.

The position of advisor elder is considered to be very powerful in Konoha Village, second only to the Hokage.

Just look at how Danzo was able to conduct human experiments in the village without any scruples, and how no one noticed, and you'll know just how powerful he was.

The other two advisor elders are also very powerful and are in charge of important village affairs.

Previously, the Uchiha clan had divided power among its three clans and the Inuzuka clan. Now, the position of advisor and elder has been handed over to the Uchiha clan, restoring their power to its original level, or even higher.

Now he's considered a high-ranking member of the village, at the center of village power; surely he wouldn't cause any trouble.

To be honest, even if they gave up the Hokage position to Lady Tsunade.

However, the Uchiha clan did indeed possess sufficient military strength to seize power.

Shikaku was still a little worried, as this might cause the new generation of Konoha's high-ranking officials to be hesitant and timid in their actions.

If the Uchiha clan is brought in, then there's no way they'll be able to do things their own way in the future.

He responded with a smile.

"Lady Tsunade, this is an excellent idea."

"Since Lady Tsunade has already won over the Uchiha clan, why not also bring the Hyuga clan into the fold?"

The Hyuga clan is also a large clan in the village. If we could bring this clan into our fold...

With the support of these two clans and herself, Tsunade's position as Hokage will be very secure.

It contributes to the peace and tranquility of the village.

Because these clans are now the strongest fighters in the village.

Tsunade began to ponder upon hearing about the Hyuga clan.

This was not because her resentment stemmed from the fact that this clan had previously supported the Uchiha clan's rise to power.

The question is whether granting the Hyuga clan too much power could lead to future problems for the village.

She naturally doesn't want her own rights to be interfered with.

As for the Uchiha clan, she could influence them by whispering in Ryosuke's ear so that they wouldn't object to her.

It can be said that she has already taken control of the Uchiha clan through Ryosuke Uchiha, which can be considered an extra benefit of taking control of Ryosuke.

However, the Hyuga clan is different.

"Let's consider this later, after the village is stable, and see if it's beneficial or harmful to the village."

Tsunade also needs to consider that the people she's trying to win over shouldn't cause her too much trouble.

Shikakumi Tsunade's considerations were naturally her own idea.

The transition between the old and new regimes must be handled with caution.

It's impossible to just randomly select advisors and elders. Otherwise, if they're found to be unsuitable later, kicking them out would only create unnecessary resentment.

This is even more detrimental to the stability of the village.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade."

"Wait a moment, I'll send someone to find Fugaku to discuss this matter. I'm sure he won't refuse."

Tsunade nodded in agreement.

"Just do it."

Shikaku was thinking about other things as well.

"Lady Tsunade, I will first prepare a document listing you as the sole candidate to become the Fifth Hokage and submit it to the Daimyo for approval. Then you will be able to officially become the Fifth Hokage. I will take my leave now."

Tsunade naturally agreed.

"Go and prepare."

This procedure was merely symbolic, giving the famous man ample face.

However, the villagers have already accepted his identity, since he was chosen openly and legitimately by everyone.

There's no need to worry about the daimyo disagreeing.
