Chapter 663

The selection of the Fifth Hokage has been finalized.

For this,

Sarutobi Sarutobi didn't raise any objections, or it could be said that Maple's current strength, achievements, and supporters have far exceeded the limits of his control.

The succession of the Fifth Hokage requires a process. First, it needs to be reported to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and then a public inauguration ceremony will be held in Konoha, but before that, Maple is already the Fifth Hokage of Konoha.

And during the time when the ceremony hasn't even officially begun, Maple has already shown his iron blood methods that are completely different from Yondaime Hokage's Minato!

The first operation.

Disband the Anbu!

The Anbu is almost a direct department of Sarutobi Sarutobi. All of Sarutobi's henchmen and ninjas who are loyal to Sarutobi Sarutobi are in the Anbu. These people need to be dealt with by Maple one by one, and it will take a long time to eliminate them, but Maple is too lazy to do so.

The order to disband the Anbu was opposed by the ninjas who are loyal to Sarutobi Sarutobi, but these objections became meaningless in the face of Maple's strength and the support of the major clans.

The power of the Anbu has always been great.

It's above all the departments.

Even the ninjas of the major clans can be directly taken away by the Anbu, there is no need to communicate with the major clans, so the major clans naturally support the disbandment of the Anbu.

In fact, the Anbu is also a way for the Hokage to control power, it's also a way for the Hokage to stabilize his position, but Maple doesn't need it at all.

A fox lying outside of Konoha watching TV.

Even the deterrent power of the entire Anbu combined can't compare to him.

The Anbu of Konoha was disbanded within a few days, and the next step was to clean up all the ninjas who are loyal to Sarutobi Sarutobi, no one was left!

In less than ten days, Sarutobi Sarutobi's forces were completely eradicated, and he became a Hokage who can live out his retirement.

A few days.

Sarutobi Sarutobi seems to have aged ten years.

Maple doesn't feel any guilt about this, because the death of his father, White Fang of Konoha, can't be separated from the responsibility of any of the higher-ups, including Koharu and Homura Homura.

While cleaning up Sarutobi Sarutobi's forces, vacancies also appeared in various positions in Konoha, and Maple was already prepared, directly selecting talents from the major families to fill the vacancies.

When Sarutobi Sarutobi was in power, he suppressed the major families.

But he doesn't need to.

His strength is above the Shinobi World, it determines that his position is unshakable, there is no such thing as making the major families of Konoha too powerful to control, any family that disobeys him can be sent to the Kyuubi to have a heart-to-heart talk.

Shikaku was appointed by Maple as the Hokage Advisor, responsible for dealing with various matters of Konoha, and Kurenai Mashiro was appointed by him as the Minister of Finance of Konoha, responsible for taking over the economic management left by Koharu and Homura Homura …

In this way, they were distributed one by one.

Before the Hokage Inauguration Ceremony was carried out in front of the people of Konoha, Maple has basically cleaned up all the previous departments of Konoha.

…

The Hyuga Clan.

Today is the day of celebration for the Hyuga Clan.

The daughter of the patriarch of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Hiashi, is one month old today, and just like Sasuke's full moon, many high-level guests of Konoha were also invited to the banquet.

In a certain room, Maple was holding a baby in his arms and said with a smile, "Well, you don't seem to be afraid of me at all, you seem to be a little shy … Have you decided on a name? Patriarch Hyuga. "

Hinata, who had just turned one month old, was nibbling on her tiny fingers while looking at Maple with a pair of cute eyes. She looked very timid, but she didn't seem to be afraid of him and didn't cry.

This is also normal.

Currently, Maple has the perfect body of a sage, and the natural energy he exudes is extremely gentle. The baby doesn't have any self-awareness, so it instinctively feels a sense of vitality and affinity.

"I've thought about it, but I haven't decided yet."

Hyuga Hiashi smiled and said, "Kaitsu-sama, which name do you think is more suitable, Hinata or Hana?"

"Well … Let's call her Hinata, it's a nice name."

Maple smiled lightly and handed the Hinata in his arms to Hyuga Hiashi.

Hyuga Hiashi carefully took it.

As a result, as soon as he took it, Hinata, who lost the natural energy, immediately started crying. For a moment, Hyuga Hiashi was flustered and hurriedly handed Hinata to his wife, then looked at Maple awkwardly and said:

"This child has been afraid of me ever since she was born, and she cries whenever I hug her. Speaking of which, Maple, you're the first person other than my wife to hug her without crying."

"It's because you look too scary."

Feng Ye chuckled and didn't bother to explain the Nature Energy as he walked away.

With the birth of Hinata, the Twelve Roaches of Konoha have all been gathered. Except for Haruno Sakura, who came from an ordinary family, and Lee and Tenzan, who were born last year, there is no news about them. The others are the sons of the heads of the major families, and he has heard about them.

There were also people who invited him to attend banquets, but he didn't have that much free time, so he used it to continue practicing his Sage Body and Hachimon Inner Tonkou.

Outside, Hyuga Hiashi went to the banquet.

Seeing Maple coming out, the guests who came to the banquet saluted him. Although Maple hasn't officially taken office yet, because the Daimyo of the Land of Fire didn't have any objections, the news about the Fifth Hokage has basically spread throughout Konoha.

After the official inauguration ceremony in ten days, Maple will officially be the Fifth Hokage, and the Hokage Rock statue of Maple is already in the process of being built.

"Maple -sama."

"Hokage-sama."

Some ninjas have already changed the way they address him to Hokage-sama.

Hyuga Hiashi stood beside Maple with a smile on his face.

The fact that Maple can attend Hinata's Full Moon Banquet shows that he attaches great importance to the Hyuga Clan, and in the previous personnel management, Konoha's Surveillance Department has been completely handed over to the Hyuga Clan.

The authority of this department is very high, it seems that it's just sending ninjas to spy on the outside world and is restricted by the intelligence department, but in fact, it is also responsible for monitoring the internal movements of Konoha.

Handing over such a responsibility to him is undoubtedly an expression of trust and importance to the Hyuga Clan, and with him attending this banquet today, the Hyuga Clan will definitely have a good development in the future.

The only regret is that.

The eldest son of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Itachi, is now Maple's disciple.

Coupled with the fact that the Uchiha Clan chose a side a long time ago, the status of the Uchiha Clan is still higher than that of the Hyuga Clan. Now, not only does the Uchiha Clan have full control over the Konoha Garrison, but they even set up a Personal Guard that is directly under the command of Uchiha Uchiha Kaede, carrying the responsibilities of the disbanded Anbu.

It is still a long and distant task for the Hyuga Clan to surpass the Uchiha Clan and become the number one clan in Konoha.
