Konoha’s Light Chapter 482: Absolute power corrupts absolutely

With Soseki's current prestige, no one would dare to refute even the most absurd decision, and the proposal he made was tantamount to the final decision.

So, everyone listened intently with bated breath, not daring to be distracted for a moment.

After hearing Soseki's decision, the ninjas in Xiaonin Village all felt a big stone in their hearts.

Five of the ten elders belong to Wuying, which is normal, otherwise they would feel strange!

The key point is that each ninja village can only have at most one elder, which gives them the opportunity to compete for power.

Except for Konoha, the senior executives of the four major ninja villages are also very calm. Although they can only occupy one position, they did not say that they cannot support their spokespersons!

Those commoner Jonin are also happy in their hearts. If they are elected, their right to speak will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced!

Seeing that no one objected, Soseki continued, "In the future, the position of leader will be selected from among the ten elders. Therefore, I will also step down as Hokage and transfer it to Minato Jonin!"

After the voice fell, there was a small uproar in the venue.

Of course, the people in Konoha were the ones who shocked the most.

As Konoha's proudest leader, he was about to step down as Hokage, and they immediately wanted to dissuade them.

However, the person who succeeds Hokage is Namikaze Minato, and they are a little embarrassed to say it!

The confrontation between Obito and the two advisers has already spread, and almost everyone knows that Minato protected Konoha during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, but was framed and lost the position of Hokage, and he was still silent Accept unwarranted criticism.

They felt guilty about Minato, so naturally they couldn't speak out.

Tutai sighed in a low voice, "As expected of the leader, considering our concerns, he offered to resign from the position of Hokage!"

It's not that Soseki has nothing to do with Konoha after resigning from Hokage, everyone knows that such a thing is impossible.

But in the eyes of others, Soseki's resignation from Hokage can at least give them a lot of peace of mind.

When everyone was shocked, Soseki threw out another depth charge.

"Absolute power will bring absolute corruption. In order to ensure that power will not deteriorate, I hereby make an agreement that the leader will be elected every four years, and the consecutive term shall not exceed two!"

Compared with the previous shocks, the shock brought by this decision can be said to be unprecedented!

Many of them have thought about the second generation, but most of them will be decades later.

At Soseki's age, it is not difficult to rule the ninja world for another sixty years, but according to him, he will abdicate in eight years at most!

What kind of spirit is this?

This is the spirit of never being greedy for power and serving the people wholeheartedly!

After the shock, some people shouted "heart-piercing".

"My lord, don't abandon us!"

"The ninja world is inseparable from your leadership!"

"Do you have the heart to plunge the Ninja World into darkness again?"

"This world cannot live without light!"

These words are so embarrassing that many people are so embarrassed that they want to dig a hole in the ground with their toes!

"These people in Xiaonin Village are really shameless!" Luo Sha slandered in his heart, and suddenly recalled, "Wait, why are these voices so familiar?"

Luo Sha turned around stiffly and looked back.

Those who exaggerate the most, almost crying, are their shinin.

Luo Sha looked confused, I didn't seem to ask you to surpass yourself, did I?

Although these voices are a bit exaggerated, there are still many people who make sincere requests.

"Master Leader, this proposal should take effect in the second generation after you!"

"Yes! Anyone in this world can be corrupted, but only you will never be corrupted!"

On the one hand, Soseki is so perfect, perfect to the point of impeccable!

On the other hand, they were also worried that this was Soseki's temptation.

Soseki's tone was firm, "Needless to say, if even I, the pioneer, can't do it, why should I ask the latecomers to do it?"

"Moreover, this is also an urging for me. If I can't perform my duties well, someone else will take over!"

Seeing Soseki's decisive words, they no longer doubted, and all of them became active.

"The second leader is of course Soseki, but the third leader must be me!" Ai smiled confidently.

"I will only be seventy-eight years old in eight years, so it may not be impossible for me to work for one term!" Ohnoki also had an idea.

"In terms of strength, I'm not as good as Raikage Dokage, but the leader doesn't just have to be whoever is stronger!" Luo Sha said heartily.

Seeing everyone in the audience beaming with joy, Soseki couldn't help sighing in his heart, "Sure enough, they all have ideas!"

The process of merging villages into an alliance is actually somewhat similar to the process of Senshou Zhujian merging families into a village.

The Senshou Zhujian took the initiative to disband the Senshou Clan back then. Apart from the plan to de-family, it may not have the idea of ​​reassuring others.

After all, the Senju Clan is too powerful, plus the fact that the first two Hokages are both from the Senju Clan, it is hard to guarantee that other people will not have the idea that "Konoha is Senju's Konoha".

As far as Soseki is concerned, of course he will not disband Konoha just to make others feel at ease, but there are still corresponding means.

For example, agree on the term of office of the leader!

In this way, at least it can ensure that the alliance develops in a very fierce manner in the early stage, and collect as much wisdom and inspiration as possible before the arrival of Otsuki.

Besides, he also intends to gain Liu Dao's favor in doing so.

He is too ostentatious now, there is no guarantee that Liu Dao will not pay attention to him secretly.

As for his voluntary relinquishment of power and the promotion of democracy, it should suit Liudao's taste.

After all, that mother was corrupted by absolute power!

Thinking of this, the smile on Soseki's face became even more holy, "Of course I will take the initiative to abdicate in eight years, but you can't blame me for breaking my promise when you beg me to come back as the leader!"

Soseki coughed, "Let's stop discussing this topic for the time being, and the next question is about education!"

"I plan to establish a university. After graduating from the ninja school, students can choose to apply for university for further study!"

"Study in the future is not only about fighting, but also culture, agriculture, machinery..."

"Sorry, I have a question." A ninja from a small ninja village raised his hand weakly.

Soseki said, "Please speak!"

Junin who raised his hand took a deep breath, "Since peace has been achieved, is it necessary to keep the army? Is it necessary for the children to learn to fight?"

It's not just him, this is actually the voice of many people.

War will only bring pain and hatred, since we will be one family in the future, is it necessary to keep these terrible things?

However, Soseki said very firmly, "No, it is necessary, and it is very necessary! Do you think that the crisis has been completely resolved?"
