One month later,
Konoha Hokage Office,
This time Hokage Office is no longer filled with smoke, but with fresh air.
A small swaying red flower is planted on the window sill, representing that new personnel have moved into this Konoha highest power center.
At this time, Hokage's desk became brand new. On it were placed not only information from Ninja World from various places, but also various internal measures and decisions of Konoha.
Nara Dan closed a copy of Konoha's internal reform plan for the Ninja Academy, and couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.
As soon as he took office, Nara Dan actually had not experienced the running-in period of Hokage Position at all, so he was familiar with government affairs, as well as the various new plans put forward by the people below in order to win the attention of the new Hokage when he took office.
This has made Nara Dan so busy this month that he doesn't even have time to practice.
So when you become Hokage, it is almost inevitable that your strength will stand still and regress.
"I finally understand why those Hokages don't use Shadow Clones to do their work."
At this time, Nara Dan suddenly understood.
"My physical recovery is tolerable."
"But mental wear and tear is not so easy to recover from."
Most of the training is physically exhausting. With the ninja's recovery power, as long as he doesn't overdo it, he can basically get better after a sleep.
And Hokage's work is mostly mental wear and tear, which is more difficult to recover than physical strength.
And once multiple Shadow Clone are working at the same time, a large amount of memory and fatigue will be returned, enough to make a person faint or even brain-dead.
"This is not a problem that you can solve if you are physically fit."
"Of course, except for perverts like Uzumaki Naruto Ashura reincarnation."
"So this is why Hokages all need Elder Council decentralization."
"Even if it is a 'village' government affairs, it is difficult for one person to sustain it."
"What's more, the scope of Konoha's rule is not only one village, but basically the entire military and economic activities of Land of Fire are within the scope of Konoha's power."
The political system of this world is very strange. Ninja Village directly controls the country's military and economy. Except for agriculture, which belongs to Daimyo, basically all other business areas are managed by Ninja Village.
Nara Dan couldn't help but think of Tobirama Senju,
"On the contrary, Second Hokage is truly gifted."
"Not only did Konoha grasp the power and government affairs, but he also researched so many Forbidden Technique Secret Technique."
"Compared to the Hashirama Senju who left things alone and the decentralized Hiruzen Sarutobi, his diligence is more like that of the founding emperor."
"But fortunately, I am neither a politician who is willing to decentralize power, nor an emperor who grasps everything."
"But he wants to be a lazy person who takes care of himself."
"Bang bang bang"
There was a knock on the door, and then a mature and intellectual figure walked in.
It's Yakushi Nonō!
It turns out that Yakushi Nonō was imprisoned by Third due to the influence of Nara Dan's mission to Sand Ninja.
But later, whether it was Third or Nara Dan, because things developed too fast, what Nara Dan did was too shocking, and they all forgot the existence of Yakushi Nonō.
It wasn't until Nara Dan became Hokage that the people below released Yakushi Nonō. Because Nara Dan became politically correct at this time, imprisoning Yakushi Nonō on the pretext of a wrong mission was naturally untenable.
Of course, it is precisely because of this reason that Yakushi Nonō no longer suffers any hardship in prison.
But after all, she suffered because of Nara Dan, and she was considered one of her own. Then she was recruited by Nara Dan and became Hokage's secretary.
Just according to Hokage's workload, although Yakushi Nonō's ability is not bad, Nara Dan cannot live a life like a busy secretary.
"Lord Hokage."
"Cabinet's elders are here."
Yakushi Nonō wears glasses on his delicate face and has a gentle smile. The once sad look on his face has disappeared.
Although the process was a little tortuous, she was still very satisfied working under Nara Dan. Not only was there no danger, but she could also help visit Orphanage's children from time to time.
"Yeah."
"Then prepare for the Cabinet meeting"
Nara Dan stood up and said.
Yes, this is the method Nara Dan borrowed from his previous life.
As the oldest centralized country in my previous life, my hometown has really tried its best to find a balance between centralization and laziness.
In the past month, apart from being familiar with the government affairs of Konoha, the only change Nara Dan has made is to disband Elder Council and create Hokage Cabinet.
Different from the complete decentralization of power of ordinary Elder Council things, Nara Dan draws on the Cabinet system of previous lives.
Distribute the daily government work, except the most important military and confidential information, to the hands of elder Cabinet, and let him propose ways to deal with it.
Finally, Nara Dan decides how to deal with it.
This not only greatly improves the efficiency of government affairs, but also distributes the intensity of government affairs evenly to other people, but the final decision-making power is still in the hands of Nara Dan.
Of course, despite this, the work intensity in Nara Dan's hands is still high, but fortunately, God-Seeing Indestructibility's brain development level is also far beyond that of ordinary people, so it can still handle the intensity of the work easily.
Cabinet holds small meetings every day to handle government affairs together, and Nara Dan and Cabinet hold meetings every seven days to resolve key issues.
But this Cabinet meeting is different.
conference room,
The sound of the door opening immediately attracted the attention of all the elders.
Under the gaze of everyone, Nara Dan slowly walked to the seat belonging to Hokage.
A row of people glanced over,
They are Nara Clan Head, Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hiashi, Minato Namikaze and Tsunade.
These are the members of Cabinet organized by Nara Dan, including representatives of various family forces and various types of ninjas.
Nara Clan Head Undoubtedly, as Nara Dan is a member of the Nara Clan, Nara Clan is naturally the direct beneficiary of Nara Dan becoming Hokage.
Uchiha Fugaku and Hyuga Hiashi are also families that have taken refuge in the political power of Nara Dan early on, so they will naturally have a place.
Finally, Minato Namikaze was invited by Nara Dan. As a member of the Third family, Minato Namikaze naturally does not have much favorable impressions of Nara Dan.
But after all, Nara Dan, as Hokage, holds the righteousness of Konoha. Although the process is somewhat displeasing to Minato Namikaze, after all, Nara Dan is also Hokage recognized by Third, and there is no problem with the process.
So Minato Namikaze also has to listen to Nara Dan's command,
Of course, the more important reason is that Nara Dan promised Minato Namikaze Fifth Hokage's position, and Hokage's dream Minato is naturally uneasy.
Tsunade is the Fifth Hokage in the original plot, and his ability is beyond doubt, so Nara Dan captured him to make him a young man.
Of course, Tsunade is actually the most difficult to deal with among them. With her special prestige and status, even Hokage can't force her to do something she doesn't want to do.
But Nara Dan finally used the family member he cared about the most as a breakthrough and showed her the information about Danzo's conspiracy against the Senju Clan, and then promised her that she would resurrect her brother in the future.
And Nara Dan, who has Rinnegan, does have the ability to resurrect the dead, but Nara Dan is definitely not willing to sacrifice his own life to help others to use Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique.
But this is not without a solution. When the time comes, just find a substitute and use Rinnegan.
In the end, Tsunade agreed to Nara Dan's appointment as Cabinet out of many considerations.
"Lord Hokage!"
Except for Tsunade who snorted coldly, the other Cabinet elders all addressed Nara Dan with honorifics.
In this political environment, except for Tsunade, who has a transcendent status as the granddaughter of First, all other elders have to succumb to the power of Hokage.
"Hmm"
Nara Dan nodded and glanced at the faces of the people present, feeling somewhat satisfied with the Cabinet he had formed.
Needless to say, Nara Clan Head belongs directly to his family's power, while Uchiha and Hyuga also tend to his family's power, but they are at odds with each other.
Minato Namikaze represents the interests and circles of civilian ninjas, while Tsunade is aloof and generally does not participate in interest struggles and takes a neutral stance.
In this way, basically all the forces in the village are taken care of.
Nara Dan took out a stack of information and asked Yakushi Nonō to distribute it.
Cabinet members basically know in their hearts that their Lord Hokage is a person with great ideas. This can be seen from this unheard-of Cabinet system that improves Konoha's operating efficiency to a new level.
The high probability of this meeting is that Nara Dan will make major changes to various systems of Konoha.
With Nara Dan's absolute prestige and strength, Hokage's will will undoubtedly be implemented without reservation.
Several Cabinet elders frowned as soon as they opened the information, and then they all focused on their own part of the reform content.
The most excited one is Uchiha Fugaku, because one of the plans proposed by Nara Dan is directly related to the Uchiha Clan.
That is to remove the provisions of Police Force that are exclusive to Uchiha, and mix other family ninjas or civilian ninjas into Police Force.
But this is not the most important thing. What Fugaku is most concerned about is another item.
<The improvement of Konoha Legal System and the establishment of the Criminal Justice Department>
The establishment of the Criminal Justice Department mainly improves the legal system of Konoha and conducts legal trials and enforcement.
Police Force was assigned to the name Criminal Justice Department and became a subordinate organization.
Although there is no concept of rule of man or rule of law, Uchiha Fugaku is undoubtedly aware that this is an extremely important department, pointing directly to the core of Konoha's power.
And the first Criminal Justice Department minister stipulated by Nara Dan is Uchiha Fugaku,
From the perspective of Uchiha Fugaku, this is an opportunity for Uchiha to get rid of its previous status.
"It will pay off after all."
"So much invested"
Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but start to rejoice at his choice,
There is meat to eat if you hold your thighs!
Of course, this department can be joined by any ninja and is not exclusive to a certain family.
In Nara Dan's view, this kind of rule that exclusively assigns the power of a certain department to a certain family is very stupid.
The final result is that either this family will be squeezed out and destroyed, or this family will gain dominance and rule over Konoha.
There will be no third outcome.
