Look at Neji's smooth forehead, straight spine, and the bright light burning in the pair of Byakugan after breaking free from restraint.
Naruto showed a flamboyant smile after being briefly surprised.
What a big surprise!
Very good.
The first and most symbolic and impactful "role model" has already stood up in the most shocking way.
But, this is not enough.
Konoha's "man", or in other words, Konoha's new generation of core force who dares to face challenges and take responsibility, cannot be just one.
Naruto's eyes began to scan quickly across the seats of the younger generation in the audience.
His smile remains the same.
He did not ask any more questions to the audience, but began to call the names one by one.
"Shikamaru."
Shikamaru smiled helplessly and then stood up.
When Naruto mentioned the last topic, he knew that this guy would definitely call him.
There is no way, who told me to cooperate with him!
"Choji."
Naruto's eyes turned to the little fat man next to Shikamaru who was still a little confused, Choji Akimichi.
Choji subconsciously puffed up his chest.
We are all buddies, can Naruto still harm me?
"Shino."
Shino Aburame in Corner pushed up his sunglasses. His eyes behind the lenses remained calm, but his body slowly stood up.
I will go through fire and water for you, Naruto.
"Teeth."
Kiba Inuzuka couldn't hold it back for a long time. When he heard his name, he jumped up suddenly with an expression of excitement on his face, as if he was ready to rush out and have a big fight at any time.
"Sasuke."
Naruto's eyes fell on the figure sitting there quietly.
Sasuke slowly took off the bandage on his eyes, revealing a pair of scarlet Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Rock Lee."
Finally, Naruto looked at Rock Lee, who was still excited for Teacher Guy just now and whose tears were not completely wiped away at this moment.
Rock Lee's reaction was the most direct. The moment he heard the name, his whole body was as straight as a spring, and his eyes instantly rekindled Flames, which was stronger than before!
Naruto looked at the six people standing up, and the smiles on their faces widened a little.
"What about you?"
The subtext of this sentence could not be more obvious: Neji has already set an example. Are you, my companions and comrades-in-arms since childhood, going to stay behind?
Good brother, it is at this critical moment that you pull out and hold the "used" one!
Naruto knows this well.
Not only does he possess the current pinnacle of Konoha's personal power, but he also has to firmly unite Konoha's next-generation core who has the most potential and is closest to him.
These seven people, and the younger generation represented by them, are the future pillars of Konoha and the most solid foundation for him to implement changes.
When the force of Strongest stands together with the most united and core young force, forming an unstoppable torrent.
The remaining people, whether they are those families Elder who are accustomed to the old order and have different thoughts, or the neutrals who are still waiting and watching, hesitant, or the young people who may exist with evil intentions...
Who else dares to show their face and oppose them at this time without risking their lives?
Change heir?
Don't make me laugh.
Except for a few stubborn Elders from Hyuga who are dead, how can any Elder from other families dare to challenge the head of the family?
As for Uchiha? That's even more amazing!
If you want to object, you have to crawl out of your grave.
Seven young and tall figures, like newly born pines, stood in the center of the venue, exuding vitality and determination that could not be ignored.
This gathering power has shocked many people's hearts, as if they have seen the prototype of Konoha's future spine.
However, in this heart-pounding moment.
"There are us too!"
A clear but firm female voice, with a hint of childishness that refused to admit defeat, suddenly sounded from the back row.
Everyone looked around and saw a small hand raised high, stretching upwards with great effort.
The owner of the hand is Girl, who has a delicate face and extremely bright and sharp eyes.
Hanabi Hyuga.
Hanabi stood up in front of everyone's surprised eyes. Although she was small, she stood upright, raised her little face, and faced Naruto's gaze from behind the podium without fear. She shouted in a clear voice:
"Brother Naruto! Don't forget us! Female Ninja is not necessarily worse than male Ninja!"
"That's right!"
Ino Yamanaka flirted with Golden's Long Hair, with a confident smile on his face.
Tenten beside her also nodded vigorously, clenched his fists, and his eyes were bright.
Sakura Haruno took a deep breath, and her pink hair swayed slightly as she stood up. Her eyes were firm, looking at Naruto and her friends on the stage.
Although Hinata Hyuga had slightly red cheeks and was a little shy, under the guidance of his younger sister Hanabi and his friends Sakura, Ino, and Tenten, he mustered up the courage to stand up slowly, holding his hands nervously in front of him, but his eyes no longer dodge.
The happy smile on Hyuga Hiashi's face suddenly froze when he saw his youngest daughter Hanabi also standing up.
Then it quickly turned into a mixture of shock, headache, and gnashing of teeth!
Why is my little daughter here too?
Naruto Uzumaki, you bastard!
Hyuga Hiashi achieved a good result of 0.1 seconds in the behind-the-scenes guessing game. You can try it too.
"Very good. The Young Naruto girls in the village are all full of energy, brave enough to fight, and full of passion and ideals..."
He changed the subject and his tone suddenly became more serious:
"So, where is the backbone of our Konoha?"
"We Jonins, patriarchs, and heads of various departments who have experienced more ups and downs and shoulder the important task of connecting the past and the future..."
"Is your blood already cold?
Have your spines been bent by the compromises and humiliations of the past?!"
This unceremonious question made many middle-aged and elderly people Ninja change their faces, some were embarrassed, some were pensive, and some showed unconvinced expressions.
"I don't think it's appropriate. We don't have a valid reason..."
Third just stood up and was stared back by Naruto.
Chakra of Golden broke out, and Naruto opened Kurama Mode.
Many people's expressions changed drastically, because the previous Naruto was the Great Spiraling Ring that was lost after turning on Kurama Mode.
Jiraiya dragged the teacher back.
The old man is tired of life, he still has a lot of time to waste!
"Reason? Justification?"
Naruto's mouth curved with a hint of ridicule.
"When someone puts a knife to our necks, we don't need a reason."
"Legitimacy means nothing when our fellow citizens are being traded as objects."
"Peace is not begged, it is fought!
Dignity is not something you endure, it is something you fight!"
"Now that you have decided to change, start with the most direct action."
"The enemy can go, so can I!"
"I will lead the charge."
His voice was not loud, but it was like thunder, announcing the beginning of a completely New Era violence:
"First of all, let's remove the 'coward' who is at both ends of the spectrum, who is accustomed to opportunism in the cracks between major powers, and may even have secretly cooperated with hostile forces to harm Konoha's interests.
Kusagakure, completely destroyed!"
"Konoha's logistics troops followed closely behind, responsible for pacifying civilians, cleaning the battlefield, and establishing effective control."
He paused slightly, his eyes flashing with a cold and grand plan:
"Subsequently, when the dust of Kusagakure is settled, I will hold Five Kage Summit at Land of Iron."
"It's not about requesting, it's not about negotiating."
"But...
Declare war on the entire Shinobi World!"
"Declaring that Konoha will no longer accept any humiliating 'peace', declaring that we have the ability and determination to bring real order and tranquility to this land in our own way!"
Finally, he looked down at the people below who might still be shocked and speechless by this shocking plan, and gave an extremely simple yet overbearing arrangement:
"I am the army."
"Most of you only need to do good logistics and stabilize the rear. The construction of the rear is equally important. Let me and a few strong people take action, and the losses in the war will be smaller.
We are not going to other Shinobi Villages with war, but we are driving away war and bringing peace.
The prelude of Fourth Shinobi World War has started.
I want to stay and fight for my family, for Konoha, and for the peace of all Shinobi World!"
