I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

"The Fourth Generation."

Nara Shikaku took out a stack of paper documents from the briefcase he carried with him and handed it out.

"This is the list of those who passed the entrance examination of Ninja School this year and the list of those who failed."

Nara Langui took the document and scanned the list from top to bottom.

"Huh? Is Chino-chan going to school this year? She is indeed old enough..."

Nara Langui put down the documents with a sigh on his face.

"If I had known this was the case, I would have gone there today."

Nara Shikaku's mouth twitched and he did not make any comment on the reaction of his family leader.

What does it mean to say this now?

The Hokage's speech is over!

Today next year, the "busy" Fourth-generation Hokage will definitely continue to find reasons to get rid of this troublesome speaking task, just like he did in previous years.

Nara Shikaku is minding his own business and reporting.

"The number of students enrolled in Ninja School this year has dropped a bit compared to previous years."

Since the Second Hokage ordered the construction of a ninja school, the students in the ninja school are often regarded as "ninja reserve forces."

In the past war years, it often happened that frontline ninja combat troops were short of personnel and ninja school students were temporarily deployed to fight on the battlefield.

It's not just about sending Ninja School students to the battlefield.

During war, it is common for genin with insufficient strength and qualifications to be temporarily promoted to serve as chunin quickly.

In the final analysis, the number of deaths in the world war was too shocking, and the Ninja Village had to exploit underage children...

But in this era, Konoha's overall strength is too strong, and there is no need to retain as many ninja troops as before.

Cultivating a ninja army is extremely resource intensive!

Since taking office, Nara Langui has been ordering the Executive Deputy Hokage to carry out the task of "small-scale disarmament".

Regarding the Konoha Ninja School, Nara Langui naturally also made corresponding restrictions.

Reduce the number of students enrolled in Ninja School, raise the admission threshold for Ninja School students, and increase the difficulty of graduation from Ninja School...

In the future, Konoha will not need so many fighting ninja troops.

Take the four wars that have not yet broken out as an example.

The so-called "80,000 Ninja Allied Forces" - no matter how this number was come up - did so many people really play an important role in the four battles that lasted only about three days?

According to Nara's philosophy, future ninjas should be more talented than too many.

"It's okay, just go down."

Nara Langui said noncommittally.

"Perhaps in a few years, there will be only nine genin graduates in a class of ninja school students."

As we all know, there will actually be three "senior students" among the twelve Konoha heroes in the future.

In the class of Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, a total of 27 people passed the graduation exam, but the leading teacher would reject two-thirds of the graduates.

In other words, in Uzumaki Naruto's generation, only the "Nine Little Strong" became genin.

However, after several months of training, these nine genin were all recommended to take the chuunin exams. In a sense, they can be regarded as "elite genin".

"How could there be only nine graduates..."

Nara Shikaku said speechlessly.

"The Ninja School only trained three ninja teams in one year. Isn't this too few?"

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Nara Langui shook his head.

"What's more, the demand for ninjas is different in war years and peace times."

That's true!

Nara Shikaku thought for a while and did not continue to argue, but brought up another matter.

"Among the list of failed candidates for this year's entrance exam, there are three more children who want to join the 'Physical Training Force'."

The so-called "Taijutsu Training Force" is actually the "Eight Gate Dungeon Team" established under the order of Nara Langui.

As Nara Langui continues to raise the admission threshold for ninja schools.

Every child who is qualified to enter the ninja school has the ability to steadily refine chakra and release E-level ninjutsu.

And those children who were rejected from the entrance examination may not necessarily be completely unqualified as ninjas. It can only be said that their level does not meet the requirements of the ninja school.

For these children who cannot enter the ninja school but want to become ninjas, the village gives them a new path option - the physical training force.

The road to Ninjutsu is dead.

Then just do taijutsu!

But if you don’t have any talent in physical skills...

It's better to just be a commoner!

Nara Langui gave an order casually.

"Follow the past rules."

Although there are no barriers to entry for the physical training force.

But this unit is the reserve unit of the "Eight Gate Dunjia Squadron".

It is not easy to "graduate" from this force and obtain admission to the "Eight Gate Dunjia Team".

[Eight Gate Armor Formation], its cultivation also requires a lot of physical talent!

"yes."

Nara Shikaku nodded, and then took out a new document from his briefcase.

"This is the urban planning document for Konoha New Town."

Nara Langui sighed, took the document, and flipped through it.

"Any questions?"

"There's no big problem, it's just that the new city is developing too fast and needs to be expanded."

Nara Shikaku replied.

"Resources in all aspects, human, material, financial...all need to be reorganized and planned."

"If there are not enough earth escape ninjas, go to the Thousand Hands clan and let the wood escape troops take action!"

Nara Langui gathered the documents and suggested proactively.

“As for professional issues, you can consult Wedge Real Estate Co., Ltd.

"Oyashiroyan has been working with our village for many years."

Wedge Real Estate Co., Ltd. is the personal construction company of Oya Shiroi. The professional level of the company is among the best in the Land of Fire.

It can only be said that Oyajoyan's economic career is still developing quite well!

"yes."

Nara Shikaku finished the mission report neatly and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute, Brother Shikaku."

Nara Langui stopped him.

"Is there any new news coming from Sunagakure Village recently?"

"Sunagakure?"

Nara Shikaku raised his head and glanced at Lord Hokage strangely.

I never expected that Hokage-sama, who had been idle for several years, would actually take the initiative to talk about official matters...

"I didn't hear anything."

Nara Shikaku reports carefully.

"The trade between our village and Sunagakure Village is going very smoothly, and there have never been any unexpected incidents."

"There may be some minor changes in Sunagakure Village recently."

Nara Langui warned.

"If the village plans to entrust ninjas to go to Sunagakure Village recently, then let them wait for a few days before going."

Nara Shikaku was stunned.

"Yondaime-sama, Sunagakure Village won't want to take action against our village, right?"

How long did it take for the Third War to end?

Sunagakure Village wants to start a war again?

"That's not true."

Nara Langui shook his head.

"According to my information, the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village plans to kill the jinchūriki of their village."

Clam?

Nara Shikaku was dumbfounded and doubted his ears.

"Kazekage... Jinchuuriki..."

Although according to legend, beings like Jinchuuriki are indeed difficult to cultivate, and if you are not careful, you will encounter problems such as losing control and going berserk;

Although Konoha has never encountered such a problem, even the most ferocious and powerful Kyuubi is well controlled by the Uzumaki Sealing Technique;

Although Sunagakure Village is very poor and backward, Kazekage still needs to take the initiative to serve as a gold miner for the village to mine for survival;

But in the history of Ninja Village, are there any cases of people taking the initiative to attack their own Jinchuuriki?

Not "seal", not "imprisonment", not "protection", but "kill"?

"The Fourth Generation."

Nara Shikaku swallowed with some difficulty.

"If I remember correctly, the current one-tail jinchuriki of Sunagakure Village should be the child of the Fourth Kazekage, right?"

Due to the existence of a special spy, Konoha has a very comprehensive and thorough grasp of the internal information of Sunagakure Village.

The information related to the One-Tail Jinchuuriki is naturally within Konoha's grasp.

As the Executive Deputy Hokage, Nara Shikaku also knows the relevant information about Gaara.

"That's right."

Nara Langui shook his head and said something strange.

"Rasa has given the order to send someone to assassinate his third son - Gaara!"

Nara Langui originally thought that Luo Sha would not send anyone to carry out this order plan.

There is no such thing as "a tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds".

After all, there are many perverts among ninjas.

There are even beasts that kill their fathers and mothers, let alone kill a son...

It’s just that the world’s routes have shifted so much.

The difference in "comprehensive village power" between the current Sunagakure Village and Konoha is like a thousand miles.

Instead of thinking about how to increase the strength of his village, the Fourth Kazekage-sama made up his mind and committed suicide...

What is he planning?

Nara Langui really couldn't understand Luo Sha's brain circuit.

"I have a question."

After Nara Shikaku took several breaths of air conditioning, he suddenly realized something and raised his hand to signal.

"Yondaime-sama, why are you so aware of Kazekage's plan?"

"Oh, because the extremely intelligent Fourth Kazekage-sama gave my people the task of assassinating his own son."

Nara Langui said expressionlessly.

"And my people are completely unable to understand the lunatic behavior of the Kazekage-sama of their village, and plan to re-elect a Fifth Kazekage."

Nara Shikaku's mouth twitched.

"Yondaime-sama, what do you mean by 're-election'?"

"Of course the fourth generation dies and the fifth generation takes over!"

Nara Langui replied readily.

"I can't help the Third Kazekage up, can I?"

Second update.
