Long Live The Hokage

February 1st.

The first Hokage's "enthronement" ceremony was held as scheduled.

The people on the stage were the patriarchs of various clans, the four newly-baked elders, and the newly formed Hokage Guard. In addition, there are the most important ones, His Excellency the daimyo of the Land of Fire, a little girl he brought with him, and six of the Eighteen Guardian Ninja Warriors.

"This little girl who is less than 10 years old can't be the daimyo's daughter, she's quite pretty, but I'm not a lolicon... besides, daimyo is 50 years old." Masahiko's mouth twitched, thinking in his heart.

There are various reasons why the daimyo was invited and why Konoha was attached to the Fire Nation.

The profession of ninja is a special profession. Since the creation of Ninja by Sage of the Six Paths, ninjas have gradually squeezed the samurai who occupy the mainstream of the world out of history.

The emergence of ninjas also means the Warring States Period that lasted for thousands of years.

It can be said that the profession of ninja means destruction, and at the same time, ninjas are not engaged in production.

During the Warring States Period, the main goal of the powerful clans was to rob and sell resources to supply the ninjas in the clan for training and daily life. The relatively weak clan, including the whirlpool clan, takes in ordinary people and maintains the needs of the clan by collecting their rent.

But after Konoha was established, all this changed. All ethnic groups are arranged in the same village, and there is no one to invade.

Therefore, the issue of resources has become the primary issue. Hashirama also thought of some ways to solve this problem.

The first is to collect commissions from civilians outside the village through tasks to ensure the expenses in the village, but this is obviously a drop in the bucket. In desperation, he could only choose to attach himself to the fire country daimyo in name and obtain funds from him.

So now, Konoha is nominally a military organization belonging to the daimyo of the country of fire, but it only enjoys autonomy.

Therefore, for Konoha Hokage to take up such a big event, it is only natural that the fire country daimyo should be present.

It was almost noon, and the ninja people in the audience were almost all there. Hashirama nodded to Tomona, and Tomona took a step forward.

"I announce that the Hokage Inauguration Ceremony has officially begun, and the first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, will give a speech!"

"Pfft..." There was silence on and off the stage, and Masahiko's laughter was particularly ear-piercing. Masahiko looked around and apologized quickly. He didn't expect that Hashirama really accepted his proposal, and that Hokage's inauguration ceremony would unfold like this. The most exaggerated, this kind of disharmonious lines was read out in a serious manner by Qianshoubeijian.

Hashirama took a few steps forward, facing all the villagers.

"Today is the first time that all the staff gathered together after we built the village. This is an exciting moment, which marks the official establishment of our village. We will bid farewell to frequent wars and live together in a beautiful village. From now on, peace will coexist with us, and we will guard this peace with our own hands!"

"I'm very happy to be chosen by everyone as the first generation of Hokage," Hashirama wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "I will do my best to maintain this hard-won peace!"

After calming down, Zhuzhi continued to speak, "Since the death of the Sixth Immortal a thousand years ago, the Ninja sect he established has split, and there have been endless wars with each other, bringing a millennium-long war to this world!"

"During this long period of time, the whole world has been devastated. Whether it is a ninja or a civilian, they are all living a precarious life."

Hashirama looked back at Madara, "Friends don't dare to give out their surnames at will, for fear that war will break out at any time."

"Children will be sent to the battlefield at any time, countless families will be separated, and countless families will be destroyed in the flames of war!"

"But I want to say that from now on, everyone will live together in the same village, and there will be no more wars, no more hatred! People can freely report their surnames when they meet, and there is no need to push their children to the flames of war!"

"A time of peace,

It's coming! "

The shout from Hashirama resounded throughout Muye Village, and there was silence on and off the stage.

After a long time, someone in the audience reacted.

"Peace, has it really come?"

Suddenly, there was an uproar at the scene, and cheers were endless.

"Long live! Long live peace!"

"No need to go to the battlefield anymore!"

"I...surprisingly lived in an age of peace!"

Looking at the cheering crowd of villagers below the stage, Hashirama showed a sincere smile.

Masahiko sat on the stage and watched the whole declaration of Hashirama, feeling in his heart: "I really didn't pay attention in my previous life. I only knew that the first generation of Hokage was a strong but funny ninja. Until now, I didn't know why everyone I am willing to call Hashirama the God of Ninja, not just because of strength."

Unlike those lengthy meetings in Masahiko's previous life, one speaker after another.

After Hashirama finished speaking, the Hokage Inauguration Conference was considered to be over. However, the excited ninjas of various races and some civilians fell into the carnival and refused to leave for a long time.

It wasn't until the evening that the ceremony was officially over. Hashirama signaled that the patriarchs of the various clans could return to the clan, and he needed to accompany the daimyo around Konoha to let daimyo know about the current situation of Konoha.

Madara is not interested in things like walking around Konoha with Daimyo, although today, he also feels that his dream has really come true, and he has a lot to say to Hashirama...

Hyuga Tennin also nodded to Hashirama, and returned to the Hyuga clan. In the end, only Masahiko, Chief Nara, and Tomama were left.

A total of four people accompanied the daimyo and his party to stroll around Konoha, and took the initiative to introduce the residences of various ethnic groups.

In the meantime, Masahiko also took the initiative to say, "Your Excellency, do you still remember me?"

The daimyo hesitated, "You are... oh, by the way, one hundred and eight generals!"

Masahiko's face darkened, this daimyo still held grudges, and no longer took the initiative to speak.

Therefore, along the way, Hashirama and Nara patriarch were explaining the daimyo, while Tobima was performing the duty of guarding.

It wasn't until it was dark that a few people sent the daimyo to the guest room specially prepared for him, and the daimyo pulled the little girl who had been following behind him, and took the initiative to say:

"Clan Chief Hashirama, oh no, it should be called Konoha Hokage now... This is my youngest daughter Aika, who is nine years old this year."

Masahiko smiled secretly, she really is a daughter, her name is really old and strong...

"I heard that Hokage has a son named Senju Kenji, who is 13 years old this year."

"We might as well get married and marry my daughter to your son. Of course, after she turns 16, make an appointment now."

Hashirama hesitated for a moment. In order to maintain the bloodline, Senju seldom married outsiders, but Daimyo offered to propose, while the Nara patriarch and Tobima were still giving him frequent winks, and they agreed after gritted their teeth.

As for Masahiko, he has no intention of caring about Hashirama now, but only has one thought in his head:

"Could this little girl be the legendary Tsunade's mother..."
