Naruto : Minato back to the past

One day later.

"These are the candidates I have chosen for the new Anbu, but they still need to be reviewed by you."

In the Hokage's office, Minato handed a stack of forms to Uchiha Yoruki.

Although he is the Hokage, he can directly issue orders to Uchiha Yoruki and the ninjas he has chosen.

But after all, these newly selected Anbu will all work under Uchiha Yoruki in the future.

Therefore, the latter also has the right of review, and this is also how Minato handles things as Hokage.

In his opinion, the Hokage is not the person who sits in the highest position and decides everything, but the person who gathers the wishes of everyone in the village and finally makes the right decision.

Uchiha Yoruki borrowed the form, glanced at it, and after a pause, he looked at Minato and said, "For these people, I think they will be observed one by one. It shouldn't take too long, three days will be enough."

"Good."

Minato said that although he needed this power very urgently, he would rather waste some time to ensure the quality of the Anbu personnel he selected.

In this respect, Uchiha Yoruki and Minato are the same.

After saying that, Uchiha Yoruki turned around and was about to leave the office. Just as he opened the door, there were three people outside the door. They seemed to have come together.

The three elders in Konoha now are Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado and Shimura Danzo.

The four of them looked at each other, and the three elder looked at Uchiha Yoruki with gloomy eyes.

With Uchiha Yoruki's keen eyesight, he naturally saw everything, but he didn't care. Instead, he looked back at Minato with a little worry.

Obviously, these three people already knew that Minato chose him as the captain of the Anbu, and they came to hold him accountable together.

"Just finish what you are doing." Minato said calmly.

Uchiha Yoruki nodded, and then his figure suddenly disappeared in front of the three people.

It seemed that these three elders wanted to stop Uchiha Yoruki, but the latter also knew this and did not give them such an opportunity.

Although Uchiha Yoruki's speed is not as fast as Minato's, he can still be ranked among the top shinobi in the entire ninja world.

Although these three elders were all powerful ninjas in the past, but now they were unable to stop Uchiha Yoruki.

They immediately turned their eyes to Minato.

"Yondaime, you are kidding me!"

Danzo was the first to speak up, and said in a solemn voice: "You actually let someone from the Uchiha clan serve as the captain of the new Anbu?"

Hearing this, Minato replied calmly: "So what?"

"You should know the relationship between the village and the Uchiha!"

Koharu also frowned and said that she didn't believe that Minato didn't know about this special relationship.

"The village and the Uchiha?"

Minato asked in return, "The Uchiha clan and its members are also part of Konoha Village. Why should they be differentiated?"

"Humph, as a Hokage, you don't even understand these things."

Danzo snorted coldly. He even dared to question the orders of the Third Hokage. Naturally, he would not have much respect for Minato, the newly appointed Fourth Hokage.

"I really don't understand why the elders want to exclude the Uchiha clan. They are also Konoha ninjas like us." Minato said.

"Since you don't understand, I will teach you today!"

Danzo said in a strong voice: "The people of the Uchiha clan, starting from Uchiha Madara, did not agree with the first Hokage Senju Hashirama's leadership of the village. For this reason, Madara rebelled against Konoha and attacked the village."

"The members of the Uchiha clan have always wanted to regain control of the village. The Second Hokage realized this, so he established a police force and gave the Uchiha clan members full responsibility."

"As the Hokage, you don't even realize these problems. Sarutobi is still wrong by nominating you as the Fourth Hokage."

"As a Hokage, You actually handled your personal affairs during the Hokage inauguration ceremony."

"What you've done is just nonsense, you have discredit the Hokage name!"

Danzo himself was dissatisfied with Minato's appointment as the Fourth Hokage, so he took this opportunity to critic the latter even more.

Even though Minato is the Hokage, if most people in the village have doubts about him, he may not be able to hold on to the position of Hokage.

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado were also looking at Danzo in surprise. The latter's words were a bit too direct.

But thinking back, what Danzo said was indeed true.

As a ninja, Minato led the village to final victory in the Third Ninja World War and made great achievements.

But as the Hokage, what Minato did in just two days was indeed too presumptuous.

"First of all, I did not handle my personal affairs properly. I would like to apologize to the three elder."

Minato said respectfully, "But I don't think my actions have caused any loss to the village."

"As for letting Uchiha Yoruki serve as the captain of the newly established Anbu, I don't think there is any problem at all."

"Because what the elders said before is all past history and is not applicable to the current situation of the village."

The three advisors in front of him all grew up in the early days of Konoha and witnessed what happened at that time with their own eyes, so it is understandable that they have such stubborn ideas.

But that doesn't mean they are right.

"Before becoming Hokage, what I saw was that the head of the Uchiha clan, as a ninja of Konoha, fought bloody battles in the previous war. On the monument commemorating the heroes who died in the war, there was the name of the Uchiha clan!"

At this point, Minato's mood couldn't help but be a little upset. Although he ended the war with his own hands, if possible, he wanted there to be no more fighting in the ninja world.

Because the so-called winner is just a title.

Whether winner or loser, a large number of civilians and ninjas will die.

"And even in history, if there hadn't been a collaboration between the Senju and Uchiha clans, there wouldn't have been this Konoha Ninja Village."

Upon hearing this, both advisors Koharu and Homura fell silent. It wasn't that they directly agreed with Minato's point of view, but they couldn't refute it either.

Danzo frowned, he pondered for a moment, stared at Minato and said: "The policy against the Uchiha clan was set by the previous Hokage, are you questioning the decision of the predecessors?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a faint smile appeared on Minato's face, and his blue eyes stared at Danzo, saying.

"Elder Danzo, are you a little confused? The decision made by the previous Hokage was of course the most appropriate approach for the village's situation at the time."

"But what the previous Hokage saw was the former Uchiha."

"But in the eyes of me, the Fourth Hokage, this is the current Uchiha!"
