Is the Hyuga clan strong?
It is very strong. There are nearly ten thousand people in the clan, and there are more than a thousand Jōnin. There are dozens of elite Jōnin who can take action. In addition, their family is a strategic ninja, so their status in the Konoha Ninja Village is very high. It was quite transcendent, especially since they had just cooperated with the fourth generation to overthrow the Thunder Ninja Village, making their family vaguely the direct descendants of the fourth generation.
Although the Uchiha clan and the Hatake clan are both direct descendants of the fourth generation, Hinata is different because everyone knows that Hinata is a big bargaining chip that poses no threat. As long as they fall to one side, the situation in Konoha will be determined. Came down.
Just like in the fourth generation election, they, along with the Hatake clan and over 10,000 civilian ninjas, stood aside for the fourth generation and defeated Orochimaru introduced by Shimura Danzo, as well as Uchiha Fugaku who stood up on his own. Namikaze Minato called the fourth generation Hokage.
After Namikaze Minato came to power, he quickly showed his political skills. First, he asked his wife Uzumaki Kushina to play with his best friend Uchiha Mikoto, the wife of the Uchiha clan leader, and she was still in the Uchiha clan. Inside, this is an absolute trust for the Uchiha clan who possesses the Sharingan. With his wife's diplomatic methods, he has made most of the Uchiha clan become his supporters. It can be said that in this At that time, Uchiha had the best relationship with Konoha.
The reason why Namikaze Minato did this is because he knew that the Uchiha clan is actually the clan that knows how to love best. It is a love-hungry clan that will not betray its trust. As long as they are treated equally, they will be able to show their heart to you. lung.
The Uchiha clan without the Mangekyō Sharingan cannot pose any threat to the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki. Of course, this is because Minato Namikaze didn't know that Uchiha Fugaku had the Mangekyō, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care. , will even trust the Uchiha clan more.
Namikaze Minato used his wife to win over the Uchiha clan, and he himself passed through Akimichi Hall and went to the Inokacho family. He recalled their original friendship on the battlefield and said that these are the four iron pillars of life. The friendship he will never forget.
At the same time, he also said that he had just taken over as Hokage and did not know much about many things, so he needed someone to help him bear some of the pressure. The jounin class needed a mature and prudent person to control it, so he hoped that Akimichi Choza could take over the jounin class. The position of monitor.
And Akimichi Tingza immediately said that he did not have this ability and should find someone else. For example, Nara Shikaku is very good, both in terms of ability and experience.
Namikaze Minato naturally agreed to Akimichi Choza's suggestion, and said that he came to Akimichi Choza to be the leader of the Jonin class, not just casually, but because of Akimichi Tofu-senpai. This senior of the Akimichi clan was not only the squad leader of the jounin class but also Konoha's chief adviser. He had contributed greatly during several ninja battles. However, he retired due to some things. Otherwise, during the three ninja battles, There won't be so many things happening in Konoha.
As for Akimichi Dontou, he has no dissatisfaction. He also knows that this position cannot be given to him, and he is also older and has a lot of injuries. He is preparing to retire and open a barbecue restaurant, and he Namikaze Minato's invitation to Akimichi Kaifeng to take over is 100% welcome, because it means that their family is about to make another leap.
So he wanted to let Akimichi Tifeng take over the position of chief staff officer again. After all, this is the man who commanded two ninja wars. He also built the Konoha defense system for the third generation and is the most clever among all ninjas now. One of them, that’s why he came.
Once this is said, everyone will understand.
Why did Namikaze Minato come to Akimichi Tingzao to become the Jonin squad leader? This was not because he had a good relationship with Akimichi Tingzao, but to get the support of Akimichi Tifeng.
After knowing the purpose of Minato Namikaze's visit, Akimichi Choza also expressed the words of his seniors, that is, Akimichi Takafou will not come out again. He only hopes that the fourth generation can live a good life for a few more years, and at the same time send someone to take care of him. Replace the existing defense system. Each generation of Hokage must have its own defense system. There is also the issue of power. When you should be soft on some people and certain things, you should be soft on them and be ruthless on them. When using your hands, you must be quick, accurate and ruthless in order to cut through the mess quickly. Things from the old era should not appear in the new era.
What Akimichi Torifu said was very cryptic, but it was also obvious that everyone who really knew the top management of Konoha knew it, and Minato Namikaze also knew it clearly. However, he, Namikaze Minato, knew these things very clearly. There is nothing the door can do now.
Because these things all require manpower and support, and Namikaze Minato is the one who lacks the most, just these two things.
When the third generation came to power, even with the second generation's will and the support of the Sarutobi family, the Shimura family, the Inokacho family, as well as the Uzumaki Mito and Uchiha clans, he could barely hold on to the position of Hokage, and even because of his own His prestige was not enough to openly attack those who opposed him, and he was forced to divide some of his rights to create a monster with a big tail that could not be removed.
However, the Sandaime has secured his position.
The Yondaime was in trouble. He was born as a commoner. Even if he did not count the three generations of his ancestors, he had no bloodline to split up the Senju family. But in this period when the descendants of the Senju gave up their names and merged into Konoha, even the little street boy Businessmen and vendors are all qualified to say that they are descendants of Senju. Not only them, but also the current daimyo of the Land of Fire have the blood of Senju in their bodies, but is this useful?
These people could not bring him any help at all. After losing the support of his family, Namikaze Minato's backers, Jiraiya and Tsunade, also left the Konoha Ninja Village one after another, making him a political figure. Orphans on.
Although Namikaze Minato used various means to bring some families to his side, he still had no direct descendants. The Hatake clan was strong, but they only had three or two big cats and kittens, so they really couldn't help. He was busy, and his family was notoriously naive when it came to politics. Namikaze Minato would be thankful if he could not hold him back.
As for the civilian geniuses he has trained himself, even if he trains them with all his strength, he will not be able to count on them within three to five years. After all, he is not rich in resources. As for ninjutsu and the book of seals, they have been used by the third generation. The Feng Shui gate was young as an excuse.
This made Namikaze Minato want to teach ninjutsu, but he had nothing to show for it. In the end, he could only turn his Flying Thunder God Jutsu into the Flying Thunder God Formation and handed it over to Naizashiri, Shiranui Genma and Moonlight Blast, these three personal guards.
The current Namikaze Minato can be said to be an empty-headed Hokage, a famous but powerless Hokage.
Just when he was about to go to the Hyuga clan, which he thought was least likely to fall to him, to gain support.
Two brothers from the Hyuga clan came with a dozen elders.
To be honest, these elders didn't actually want to come. In their opinion, they, the first family in Konoha, pushed Namikaze Minato who had no support at the critical moment (to be honest, they felt that no one supported them, because in the big family It seems that there is no support without the support of the extended family.).
So Namikaze Minato was a member of their family, so they thought they just needed to say hello when something happened.
But this time, things are a bit big.
It was so big that it was not enough to bury the Hinata family.
So the Hinata family got scared and prepared to recruit more people to help them carry the thunder.
Everyone knows that the Hyuga family, the largest family in Konoha, is just as cowardly as Konoha, and their family's number one is entirely due to the fact that the Hyuga family has too many people, it is too easy to open eyes, and it is too effective on the battlefield. , so there are many special jounin.
Seeing more than a dozen members of the Hyuga family entering the Hokage's office, they immediately stood up and stood in front of the Hyuga clan with weapons in hand.
"When I came to the Hokage's office before, there were at least a hundred people guarding the area. Most of them were members of the Sarutobi clan. The lowest ones were elite chuunin. When they entered the office building, there were at least twenty people. The jounin is guarding here, but now, there is no one here, there are only three elite chuunin who are reasonably talented, it seems that the life of the fourth generation is very difficult. "
After Hinata Hizashi came in, he ignored Minami and the others and sat directly opposite Namikaze Minato.
"Did the Rizu Clan leader come to see my joke? You should know that the previous generation of Anbu... have all retired. Have new people been trained? And a large number of elites are outside, so I don't have many manpower here at the moment. It’s available, and it’s understandable.”
Namikaze Minato showed his little sun smile and looked at Hinata Hinashi and said.
"I'm not here as a clan leader, but as your comrade, your eldest brother. As your comrade and the eldest brother with whom we have a life-long friendship, I can't see you looking so shabby."
Hinata Hizashi said with a serious face: "You are a Kage now. Your strength is strong, but your protection is indispensable. This is a matter of face for our Konoha Ninja Village, so, As your elder brother, I have brought you some people for your use."
After saying this, Hinata Hiashi came to the window and opened the window, "Come, Yondaime-sama, please see the sincerity of our Hinata family."
Namikaze Minato looked at Hinata and Hinashi and came to the window, and then he felt a little stupid.
"Fifty Jonin, one hundred and fifty Chuunin, these people are at your disposal. This is the sincerity of our Hyuga family to the Yondaime-sama. These people are all the elites of my Hyuga family."
Hinata Hiashi stretched out his hand and waved to those people. The two hundred ninjas immediately knelt down on one knee and made a gesture of a pale master, and then shouted in unison, "I will pay homage to the Yondaime-sama."
After shouting, these people stopped making any sound, did not get up and just knelt there.
Namikaze Minato looked at these people and felt that his heart was burning. Ninjas above the two hundred chunin were a considerable force, especially now, when there were not many ninjas stationed in Konoha Village during the war, it was even more important. .
To be honest, it is not that Namikaze Minato has no subordinates, but now his subordinates above the chunin level are either at the border of the Land of Thunder or the border of the Land of Earth. On both sides, Konoha has deployed three to five thousand people on each side. Yes, many of these people are his.
There are also people from his teacher, Jiraiya, and those from Tsunade, his wife's only relative. Counting it all together, he actually has a lot of people from Namikaze Minato.
It's just that they can't come back outside. If there is no Nine-Tails Rebellion, Namikaze Minato can definitely take these people back in the next few years. At the same time, he can rely on the three ninjas to defeat Orochimaru's people. He can do all these things if he eats it.
If he completed these things, he would be sure to take back the power of Konoha without losing any of it, but all this was shattered a year later during the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
And twelve years after the plot begins, his power as Namikaze Minato is gone. Not only are his people gone, but none of the Sannin's subordinates can be seen either.
Because these people became a thorn in the side of the third generation after the death of the fourth generation, and they were dealt with one by one. This is also the reason why Konoha was so weak during the plot period, because in the third war, those ninjas who fought against the four countries were not dead. , that is, completely alienated from Konoha.
None of these things have happened now, but at this time, there is no problem in saying that Namikaze Minato is the least powerful person in Konoha.
"Brother Hizu, why am I embarrassed to help you like this? Don't worry, as long as I am here, nothing will happen to the Hinata family. No matter what happens to the Hinata family, I, Namikaze Minato, have protected you, and no one can touch you. From your family."
At this time, Namikaze Minato was no longer talking about the Hyuuga clan leader, but just said "Hyuuga big brother", and he also used honorifics, and at the same time he gave a guarantee without any words. In his opinion, this I just farted casually and asked about the taste. Forget the rest, no one would take it seriously.
But what he didn't know was that he didn't take it seriously, but the Hyuga family did.
"As long as you say this, it will be fine. Our Hyuga family has a big problem now and needs your help, Lord Yondaime."
Hinata Hiashi shook his head when he said this, "It might be a big trouble for the entire ninja world."
This matter is really not only a trouble for the Hinata family, it is probably a big trouble for the entire ninja world.
When Minato Namikaze heard this, his expression froze. He just politely thanked the other party for their help, and then expressed his gratitude to them. He thought that at most Shimura Danzo would be killed because the Hyuga clan turned to him. Oppressing the other party, so he expressed that he would support their family.
But he had no intention of helping them carry the pot. It was still a big pot at the ninja level, and his small shoulders couldn't carry it.
