Naruto : Minato back to the past

"The current Uchiha?"

A sarcastic smile gradually emerged on Danzo's face. He stared at Minato and said in a deep voice: "You who have not experienced that era have no way of understanding the ambitions of that clan."

"No matter what, the elders will never agree to Uchiha Yoruki serving as the captain of the new Anbu!"

He was putting pressure on Minato since the latter had just become Hokage.

In fact, in the eyes of these elders, the real ruler of Konoha is still Hiruzen.

Minato was just a puppet he chose when he wanted to retreat behind the scenes.

"Is this a joint decision made by the three elders?"

Minato's expression gradually became gloomy, and his blue eyes stared at the three people in front of him.

Seeing this, Koharu and Homura were speechless for a moment.

From their eyes, it can be seen that they still support Danzo's statement, but at the same time, they dare not completely offend Minato.

Putting aside Minato's position as Hokage, he is the strongest in the ninja world today.

They were afraid that the former was young and full of energy, and if they suppressed him too hard, it would cause Minato to backlash.

Although there is no danger to their lives, there is no guarantee that Minato will not make them suffer.

Although Minato doesn't have much power at his disposal now, he is enough to prevent anyone from underestimating him.

Minato noticed this and continued, "Whether this is a joint decision of the three elders or not, I am still the Fourth Hokage, so if you doubt me, just report it to the Daimyo."

He knew very well that his actions would make the village elders even more dissatisfied with him, but this was the price he had to pay to change the current situation in the village.

If he gave in to these three elders today, he would probably face a lot of doubts when making decisions as Hokage in the future.

Moreover, Minato has already made his attitude clear to Fugaku and Uchiha Yoruki. Retreating here will only make the Uchiha clan more resentful of the village.

Then all his efforts would be in vain.

Danzo and the other two obviously did not expect that Minato, the newly appointed Hokage, would be so tough.

As their eyes flickered, Minato said again: "I know it is difficult for the elders to understand my decision now, but please believe me, I have my own reasons for doing this."

"Although the captain of the Anbu is a member of the Uchiha clan, I will be in charge in the end."

"I will definitely do what needs to be done."

"I will not let go of any behavior or person that wants to harm the village!" Minato's voice softened a lot, but the determination in his expression remained unchanged.

The eyes of several senior executives who were previously frightened by Minato's attitude flickered when they heard this.

"Yondaime, I hope you remember your words!"

After pondering for a while, although Koharu and Homura were still unable to change their inner thoughts, they also knew that it was impossible to change Minato's decision.

"We will still perform our duties, you should be able to understand!"

Mizuto Menen spoke again, and his meaning was very clear, that is, he was worried about Uchiha Yoruki, so he would use the power in his hands to take some measures.

"I know."

Minato said, in fact, the attitude of these two people already surprised him a little.

"Goodbye."

Having said this, Koharu and Homura said goodbye to Minato on the surface and walked out of the Hokage's office.

As for the remaining Danzo, he naturally firmly opposed Minato's decision.

But if he alone relied on himself, it would be impossible for him to shake the decision of Minato, the Hokage.

"I'll go find Hiruzen and ask for clarification." Danzo glanced at Minato with a gloomy look, then turned and left.

"Elder Danzo, I hope you can control yourself and your subordinates and don't do anything out of line."

Behind Danzo, Minato's voice came slowly and heavily.

Hearing this, Danzo paused for a moment, his eyes flickering at this moment.

After a few breaths, he replied: "Everything I do is for the village!"

After saying that, he closed the door to the Hokage's office.

Minato stood there, his eyes fluctuating.

After a long while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Politics"

He murmured softly. As a ninja, Minato was already strong enough, but he felt that he was not good enough in handling the complicated relationships in Konoha.

This is politics, and no matter how talented a person is, it doesn't mean they can handle it perfectly.

Even before his rebirth, he had been the Hokage for more than a year.

With a long sigh of relief, Minato returned to his seat again and began to deal with the documents on the desk.

Three days later.

Konoha's seventh training ground.

Dozens of ninjas dressed in ANBU uniforms gathered here, and Uchiha Yoruki, the captain, stood in front of the crowd with a serious expression.

Everyone had the same expression. Just as they were waiting, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them without any warning.

The first one to react was Uchiha Yoruki. He immediately leaned in front of Minato and said respectfully, "Hokage-sama!"

"Hokage-sama!"

The newly formed Anbu member, who had just recovered from his shock, made the same move as him.

Seeing Uchiha Yoruki like this, Minato couldn't help but feel a little upset.

He knew Uchiha Yoruki's personality best.

But he has become the captain of the Anbu who reports directly to Minato. Although such etiquette between superiors and subordinates is not the most important thing, it definitely cannot be omitted.

What's more, this is the newly formed Anbu.

"Actually, I believe Anya [Dark Night] has already explained what needs to be said to everyone."

Minato said that Anya was Uchiha Yoruki's code name in the Anbu.

"There is only one thing I want to tell you today."

"That is, whether you are in the Anbu or in other positions, even if I am the Hokage, our identities are the same, that is, the ninja of Konoha."

"So, there is only one thing we have to do, and that is to protect the village and our companions!"

"Sir yes sir!"

As soon as the words fell, dozens of Anbu in front of Minato responded in unison.

After dealing with the matters concerning the establishment of the new Anbu, Minato returned to the Hokage's office.

He continued to work on the documents at hand until the evening when the Third Hokage arrived.

It wasn't just Hiruzen who came to see Minato, besides him there was also Hatake Sakumo.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Minato immediately asked.

"Have things in the Land of Rain come to a head?"
