Things had escalated, making their reputation even worse, and the villagers wouldn’t let them or the families backing them off easily.
They were even more afraid that Tsunade would demand money.
"All ninjas have to rotate assignnts?"
"Yes."
Tsunade gritted her teeth and said.
"Everyone, except a few of you. Even those in critical village positions won’t escape this, including Shinnosuke. I’ve already had him resign; ANBU work just doesn’t suit him."
Sarutobi Shinnosuke, the eldest son of the Third Hokage, was a quiet presence.
The Third Hokage had two sons, but most people were only familiar with Asuma, the younger one.
As for Shinnosuke, many hadn’t even heard his na.
No one would have guessed that Shinnosuke had entered the ANBU very early on and had been working there ever since.
He held a rather high position in ANBU.
He was also one of the Third Hokage’s trusted aides in ANBU. Unfortunately, his temperant was sowhat similar to the Third Hokage’s, as he also had a tendency to complicate things unnecessarily.
Kicking Shinnosuke out was a small act of revenge for Tsunade against the Third Hokage.
"You’ve ssed up the village and committed such horrendous acts. I’m sure you won’t mind if I kick your son out of ANBU, right?"
Besides, you know your son’s temperant.
Most people can be warned and restrained with confidentiality agreents, but not Shinnosuke.
To prevent potential risks, Tsunade simply removed him.
"Uh..."
Koharu and Homura instinctively looked at the Third Hokage.
They hadn’t expected Tsunade to give them a piece of candy, only for her to smack the Third Hokage with a stick before it had even lted in their mouths.
The Third Hokage’s expression remained unchanged, and he just gave a slight nod.
"Shinnosuke has always wanted to investigate Asuma’s case. Now that he’s left ANBU, I feel comfortable letting him go to the Daimyo’s residence."
Sidestepping the topic of his son being kicked out of ANBU.
The Third Hokage then asked.
"Tsunade, many ninja from these families hold important positions in the village. Are these individuals..."
"Nobody gets to escape. Everyone will take on border patrol duties. For those in key positions, I’ll stagger their rotations and won’t send them all out at once. Satisfied, old man?"
So positions will be reclaid too.
Tsunade added this ntally.
In Konoha, the Sarutobi clan and the clans aligned with them held many critical positions.
So of these individuals had earned their positions through rit, but many had gotten there due to their family’s influence.
For these individuals, Tsunade would gradually filter them out.
"Fine. The Sarutobi clan will cooperate with your arrangents, and so will the Shimura clan."
"...."
With the Third Hokage’s agreent, the two elder advisors couldn’t resist. They had no choice but to nod in acceptance, agreeing to this plan. Losing so people was better than losing everyone.
Border patrol? Border patrol it is, then.
Once the patrols are done, and the village is stabilized, there will be no worries about old accounts being brought up.
"Also, support for civilian ninjas will continue, though it will take a different approach. I plan to place more emphasis on the ninja academy and on nurturing the village’s next generation..."
After explaining Kazuki’s proposal in general, Tsunade had decided to carry it out and to do it well.
Of course, she’d also demand funds from the Daimyo.
As the saying goes, "A crying child gets the candy!"
This saying held a lot of truth. Plus, given her relationship with the Daimyo, she believed the Daimyo would provide the funds, especially if she made the situation sound severe enough.
As for whether the Third Hokage and the others would face more criticism, Tsunade didn’t care.
If you dare to act, don’t fear the backlash.
Once it was all over, the Third Hokage left the Hokage’s office as if nothing had happened.
Koharu and Homura exchanged a look, realizing they could no longer be on the sa page as the Third Hokage.
The support for the academy’s developnt received the Third Hokage’s endorsent, and the two elder advisors had no choice but to grudgingly admit that it was a sound idea.
With repeated confirmations and the resolution of two major problems, Tsunade’s mood brightened considerably.
"Shizune, don’t you think it’s a waste to have Kazuki stationed in the Police Force? Why do I feel like that kid’s mind is even sharper than Shikaku Nara’s?"
The Nara clan was renowned for their intelligence, but intelligence didn’t guarantee the sa perspective or approach to issues, nor did it ensure the ability to handle all kinds of problems effectively.
At the very least, Shikaku Nara would get a headache from these matters.
He didn’t even want to get involved, fearing it would drag the Nara clan into it.
"Ah?!"
Shizune, who was organizing docunts, looked up with a surprised, innocent expression, staring at Tsunade. "What did you just say?"
Tsunade. "....."
Forget it. Asking you is pointless.
You’re only fit to be an assistant, Shizune. No wonder Kurenai Yuhi, whom Kazuki just t, stole him right out from under you. With how you are, you’d miss any opportunity given to you.
"Never mind."
With an exasperated wave, Tsunade slumped into her chair.
"Have soone bring the clan heads of Inuzuka and Nara to see ."
Since all of Kazuki’s other proposals were feasible, maybe even this dairy farming idea...
Thinking of dairy farming, Tsunade subconsciously looked down, gritting her teeth and muttering.
"That damn kid, mocking in such a roundabout way."
"Yes, ma’am."
Shizune wiped sweat from her forehead and quickly opened the door.
"Please inform the Nara clan head and the Inuzuka clan head to co to the Hokage’s office."
"Yes."
The ANBU ninja at the door took his orders and left.
Kazuki had no idea that his random suggestion had been taken seriously by Tsunade.
In fact, Konoha’s environnt was indeed suitable for livestock farming, and it would certainly rival the Land of Lightning, whose premium beef was famous. If Konoha offered more affordable options, it would be viable.
With resources this rich, why leave them unused?
No need to worry about a lack of people or potential losses. With the Nara clan’s help, the livestock would definitely thrive.
If the Nara clan could beco wealthy from raising deer, there was no reason they couldn’t help the village raise cattle and sheep.
Resources should be used efficiently.
The Ino-Shika-Cho trio had always been loyal supporters of the Hokage. Surely it wasn’t too much to ask their clans to contribute a few mbers for so livestock farming, right?
The Nara clan could handle the livestock managent, and the Inuzuka clan could oversee safety and herding. With both clans cooperating, there was no reason they couldn’t establish successful livestock operations in the village.
If they couldn’t, Kazuki would seriously question whether they were sabotaging things behind the scenes.
Back at his clan, Fugaku seed restless, realizing he wouldn’t be able to return for so ti.
Shouldering the bla and criticism, Fugaku chose to shield Kazuki and bear it alone.
Kurenai was away on a mission, with no clear return date.
Suddenly, Kazuki found himself a bit aimless, not sure where to go.
"Never mind, I’ll just grab a al, soak in a hot spring, and then go keep Danzo company. Wouldn’t want him to feel too lonely without anyone to talk to."
With his mind made up, Kazuki headed into a barbecue restaurant.
