I established Kua Kua Cult in Naruto.

Chapter 631 Some people are tolerant to outsiders but harsh to their own people. This is called taboo within and leniency outside.
  “The torch in your hand will be extinguished, but the fire in your heart cannot be burned out. No matter how heavy snow seals the mountains and hides birds and beasts, as long as there is fire in your heart, you can drive away the severe cold and bring light and warmth.

In the past three years, more than half of Konoha's ninjas have died on the battlefield. This is the most difficult moment in Konoha's history, but I have never seen the fire in anyone's eyes go out.

This is an ordinary stone tablet, but it carries the glory of countless sacrifices. In my eyes, it is the source of fire, the source of fire that makes Konoha reborn. They are not the owners of each name on it. Die, but become a light that lights our way. "

On the roof of the Hokage Building, Tatsuma looked at the commemorative monument that was about to be transported to Konoha Cemetery and said: "The flint burned into ashes, but there are still fires waiting to be rekindled, the autumn wind drops cold dew, and there are also seeds that breed life.

I don't believe that the long night is coming, because they are shining brightly, and we will take over the torch and become the new lamp bearers, until the light of dawn shines on the entire ninja world. "

After saying this, Tatsuma raised the Hokage hat high as if taking off his hat to salute. Amidst the cheers of countless Konoha ninjas and Konoha villagers around him, Tatsuma threw out the hat he had just received from Sarutobi Hiruzen. .

Countless people rushed towards the spot where the bamboo hat fell, as if the bamboo hat was a bouquet at a wedding, scrambling to grab the spot. Chenma smiled and clasped his hands together.

"Boom~"

The loud noise attracted the attention of countless people. The memorial tablet that originally stood on the ground was grabbed by a wooden hand and lifted up. A huge wooden man also rose from the ground, holding the memorial tablet high and facing the wooden hand. Leave to Ye Lingyuan.

The sun was just right, shining on the memorial tablet as if it were a torch. Under the gaze of countless people, this beam of light gradually faded away.

Tatsuma also left the stage at this time and came to the entrance of the rooftop. Sarutobi Hiruzen was also there. Sarutobi Hiruzen said half-jokingly: "You just gave the hat that I gave you to others?"

"To be honest, the smell of your hair oil is a bit strong, maybe it's the legendary old age smell."

After Tatsuma finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and patted his shoulder, but the force was a bit heavy, and the sound from the slap on Tatsuma was like the beating of a dusk drum.

But to Tatsuma, this was like the service of a bath master. He accepted it with a smile and looked at the others.

Minato, Kushina, Tianfeng, Sento, Naoki, Nonou, Sannin, Inogacho, etc. also gathered towards him. Tatsuma nodded towards them and said:
  "From now on, I'll leave it to you all."

Today is not only the day that Tatsuma takes over as the fourth generation Hokage, but also the day when these people complete the transfer of power.

Minato serves as Hokage's assistant, Ino Shikacho inherits his father's position, Tianfeng, Sento, and Naoki are the new Hokage advisory team, Kushina serves as the sealing squad leader, and Nonou serves as the director of the medical department.

Of course, Koharu Koharu, Mito Kabuto and Akimichi Toutou have not resigned from their posts. Akimichi Toutou has made great contributions to Konoha's education and continues to produce value.

Koharu and Mito Kaden are transferred to another dormitory. Although their style of conduct does not match Tatsuma's, they have rich experience in handling internal affairs, which is something that Tianfeng and Sento cannot do.

The positions of the two old consultants remain unchanged, but the weight of their voices has been reduced a lot. Tianfeng, Qiandou and Shengshu have more symbolic meanings.

They respectively represent the three major ninja clans of Uchiha, Hyuga, and Senju, and have entered the new generation of Konoha's leadership team. The areas they are responsible for are also external armed forces, which is what they are good at.

There are also many departments that have not transferred power, such as the Konoha Security Department and the Konoha Defense Team. Uchiha Fugaku and Hatake Sakumo are still in charge. After all, they are actually a new generation team, but they took office earlier than Tatsuma took over as the first Hokage. Just a job.

As for the ANBU whose ministerial position has been vacant for many years, Tatsuma is also willing to give Sarutobi Hiruzen a face and wait for Shinnosuke to grow up. Anyway, Shinnosuke is already a minister in name only, just like Tatsuma back then.

It's just that Tatsuma was unwilling to be the ANBU minister back then, and Shinnosuke lacked strength and prestige, but as long as the ANBU could run as usual, it didn't really matter whether he had a minister or not.

Everyone walked down the stairs. Those who had exclusive offices returned to their own offices, and those who did not have offices also went to the jounin class gathering place to wait.

Sarutobi Hiruzen followed Tatsuma into the Hokage's office. The decoration of the Hokage's office has been completed bit by bit over the past year, and it now looks like Tatsuma requested.

Tatsuma sat in the main seat behind the desk, and Sarutobi Hiruzen sat in the guest seat in front of the desk. Without Tatsuma opening his mouth, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Tatsuma, Danzo is back too, you Do you want to meet him?"

Tatsuma nodded. In fact, he had already guessed Sarutobi Hiruzen's intention of following Danzo back. Tatsuma did not resist when he saw Danzo. After all, his relationship with Danzo was really good now.

It's just that Danzo is no longer walking as a Konoha ninja, so meeting him will have some impact.

Seeing that Tatsuma agreed, Sarutobi Hiruzen also gave instructions to the ANBU waiting in the office. After a while, Danzo opened the door, and an unfamiliar smile appeared on his stern face.

"Tatsuma, congratulations on becoming the Fourth Hokage."

Danzo sincerely congratulated him, and Tatsuma nodded and politely motioned for Danzo to sit down. However, there was obviously no common topic between Tatsuma and Danzo, and the office fell into a brief silence.

It was Sarutobi Hiruzen who said, "Tatsuma, now that you have taken office, I have a request."

"You say."

"I would like to know how you would judge Danzo and me's past actions from the perspective of the fourth generation Hokage. There is no need for flattery."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, Danzo also looked at Tatsuma seriously. Perhaps when people reach a certain age, they will start to want to be recognized by young people, as if this can prove that their past life has enough value.

Tatsuma was silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer. If he wanted to praise, he had a lot of phrases to use, but now that his status was equal to Sarutobi Hiruzen, he no longer needed to praise him. And those words may make the two of them happy for a while, but when they think about it, they may also blame Tatsuma in their hearts for perfunctory them, so it is better to let them feel harsh at the beginning.

Seeing that Tatsuma didn't reply for a long time, the two of them couldn't help but become nervous. Finally, Tatsuma looked at Danzo and said, "It's taboo."

Then he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "It's as wide as the outside."

Danzo is a person who cannot see good things in others, not even his own people. Hiruzen Sarutobi is a tolerant person, even tolerant to outsiders. This is Tatsuma's evaluation.

Even if Danzo didn't have a so-called "taboo" for him, it was just for him, or it wasn't there at the time, but an isolated case cannot cover up the whole.

Even though he knew that such an evaluation was close to criticism, Chenma chose to evaluate it from the heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo looked at each other and fell silent, pondering Tatsuma's evaluation. To be honest, their first reaction was definitely a little dissatisfied.

After all, both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo were very kind to Tatsuma. Such a junior who had received a lot of help from them was judging them almost harshly at this moment. No one believed them even if they said they were not uncomfortable.

It was only their love for Tatsuma that kept them from falling out, and because of this, they had the patience to ponder Tatsuma's comments.

In fact, one of the reasons why many people don't listen to advice is that the person who advises "talks lightly but talks deeply". The person being advised will completely deny the advice as soon as they hear it, so how can they think about it carefully?

If it was not Tatsuma who made this comment at this moment, then maybe Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo would not think about whether what they said was reasonable, but just felt that they were scolded.

But Tatsuma deserved them to think about what he meant. After a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said: "Indeed, this is my shortcoming. I always think that enough is enough, but I never thought that this will only increase the enemy's arrogance. .

If it hadn't been for you in the past few years, I'm afraid Konoha wouldn't have had a complete victory. Instead, it would have been patchwork to save Konoha. That's it. I admit it. "

Tatsuma nodded and said with relief: "Sandaime, without your tolerance, the young people in the village, including me and Minato, might not be able to grow as they have today."

Sarutobi Hiruzen forced a smile and nodded. Indeed, this comforted him a lot. At least during the years he was in power, Konoha has not lost its reputation as the cradle of geniuses. The geniuses who have risen from generation to generation also have his contribution.

Danzo also spoke at this time: "Perhaps leaving Konoha is the most correct choice I have ever made. Internal jealousy is indeed my character. Even if it is you, I have been jealous and angry.

If it weren't for the monkey's enlightenment and the teachings of the second generation, I might have continued like this until I seriously harmed this village.

Maybe there will be no chance again. Here, I would like you to convey my apology to Sakumo and to every Konoha ninja I have hurt. "

Just when Tatsuma wanted to comfort Danzo like he comforted Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo said: "But it's okay, now that I am away from Konoha and acting outside, no matter how careful I am, it will not affect Konoha.

Just like Monkey, now that he is resigning, he will never forgive Konoha's enemies no matter how lenient he is. Perhaps this is the best arrangement. "

Seeing Danzo comforting himself, Tatsuma nodded and said: "Senior Danzo, in fact, there were times in the past when I admired you because most people like to stand in the sun.

However, few people work in the darkness and serve the light. You have the side that a real ninja should have, but sometimes the darkness covers the fire in your heart.

But now, the fire in your heart is burning brightly and will not let you sink and get lost in the darkness. You will always be a member of Konoha, and your dedication to Konoha will always be engraved on the giant tree of Konoha. No one can erase it. "

Hearing this, Danzo smiled. Tatsuma could always see the light in people, even him, a person in darkness.

To work in the darkness and serve the light was what he wanted when he became the Darkness of the Shinobi World, sneaked into the ground and became the root of Konoha. At this moment, he finally found it.

Seeing Danzo like this, Tatsuma also turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said: "Sandaime-sama, don't think that you can throw away all your burdens when you resign.

Fire can bring light, but it can also destroy everything. Only a fire preacher like you can teach young people how to hold the torch high and light the way forward instead of burning themselves. "

"Haha~ If there is anything I can do to help, just make arrangements."

This feeling of not being abandoned by the new era also makes Sarutobi Hiruzen extremely satisfied. He is an old man, but he has great ambitions. His best friend is still working hard in the darkness. How can he lie down easily while enjoying the sunshine?

Seeing that the two seniors had regained their fighting spirit, Tatsuma showed an infectious smile and said, "I'll have to thank you both for your hard work from now on."

The two left with satisfaction. Tatsuma sat in his seat. There was no official business to deal with today because it had been dealt with in advance. As for the diplomatic letters that would definitely be sent by the shinobi villages from various countries, Shikaku could just deal with them. .

What Tatsuma needs to do now is take out Orochimaru's notes, which are still at the level of essays, and sense the time and space trajectory anchored to himself.

"Lord Orochimaru, you really did not disappoint me. Brother Dai's life is in your hands."
