Chapter 310: Prosperity

Country of Fire.

Daimyo Mansion.

In a solemn hall, the Daimyo of the Fire Country was sitting at the end of a long table, looking a bit apprehensive and vulnerable at the moment.

There were nobles, generals and other high-ranking officials of the Fire Country sitting at the table, but at this moment, none of them dared to act arrogant, all of them were clearly very cautious and reserved.

"... So that's the general situation," Yeruashi sat down at the other end of the long table in front of the Daimyo. He rested his elbows on the table, interlocked his fingers and said calmly, then looked at the Daimyo, "What do you think about this?"

"Hokage-sama, you make the decision...", The daimyo replied cautiously.

Although nominally the shinobi obey the Daimyo and are a shield protecting him, the current Hokage is completely different. After the unification of the ninja world, Yeruashi gained incredible fame and prestige not only among the shinobi, but also among the civilian population.

It is safe to say that as long as Yeruashi wishes, it will be easy to change the ruling system. Yeruashi without any problem can become not only a Hokage, above all the Shinobi, but also a Daimyo, above all the civilian population.

"Alright, then do it," Yeruashi nodded and said calmly.

He has no desire to change the current system.

Handling shinobi is already troublesome, Yeruashi is too lazy to take care of civilian affairs as well.

But due to the unification of the Shinobi world, the system still needs to be revised. Yeruashi held a meeting with Tsunade, Mei, Shikaku and the others, during which, although still quite rough, the future management structure of the shinobi world was already roughly deduced.

Nominally, this matter should be submitted to the Daimyo for review and approval, but in fact, it was more like a notification, because everyone understands that now in the Fire Country, the greatest power is not the Daimyo, but the Fifth Hokage.

"Does Hokage-sama have anything else?" The daimyo looked at Yeruashi carefully and asked.

As the only Daimyo in the unified world, he had accumulated a great deal of power in his hands, but with Yeruashi, he dared not communicate even on equal footing, let alone with an exalted demeanor.

"Nothing else," Yeruashi shook his head and smiled, "Ah, there's one little thing, build me a decent mansion in the capital, I'll stop by sometimes."

Konoha was much smaller compared to the capital of the Fire Country. The amount of civilians was much larger than the amount of Shinobi, so it made no sense to compare the size of a city where civilians were concentrated and a city where Shinobi were concentrated.

"Alright, I'll give the order right away," The daimyo visibly relaxed when Yeruashi smiled and made a personal request.

Yeruashi stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave."

The daimyo was about to stand up as well, but Yeruashi waved his hand, interrupting him, and entered the newly formed black space passage.

Seeing that the Fifth Hokage was gone, the Daimyo was finally relieved.

Even just sitting in front of Yeruashi, he already felt the pressure stronger, because this person can easily take away his status and power.

The daimyo looked up at the ceiling and sighed a little helplessly.

The shinobi world was unified.

He rules over a territory five times the size of the former Fire Country, and the Daimyos of other great countries have become his subordinates, but there is also a person also rises above him.

The generals and nobles sitting at the table were silent, they also felt a great pressure in front of Yeruashi, although he will not intentionally show any aura.

"You may leave now," The daimyo shook his head and said calmly.

He didn't think about it anymore, after all, he was now the only Daimyo in the world, and the Fifth Hokage didn't seem to want to take away his power.

By the way...

They say that Yeruashi hasn't married yet, and his youngest daughter just turned sixteen, if that's even possible.... Well, that doesn't seem so bad, does it?

Yeruashi, who had already left, certainly didn't know what the Daimyo was thinking.

All he knew was that about ten days later, a letter from the Daimyo of the Fire Country was torn up by Rin with a smile and thrown in the trash.

...

Konoha.

Somewhere above the roof, a black space passage appeared from which Yeruashi emerged.

It was the tallest building in Konoha, with a beautiful view of the entire village.

At this point, Konoha had become even larger.

It had once again expanded significantly due to the admission of women and children from Iwagakure and Kirigakure.

Today's Konoha had become at least three times larger, compared to the original size.

It could be seen that the Hokage Monument was under construction.

Yeruashi initially did not want to do this because it seemed too excessive and embarrassing, but Shikaku, Hiashi and the others insisted on changing the Hokage Monument. The four previous Hokages will still remain in their places, but the Hokage Monument will be enlarged and Yeruashi's head will be carved above them.

In fact, Tsunade even suggested changing the name of Konoha and the title of Hokage, to make it similar to how Hashirama and Madara founded Konoha, because now there are even more drastic changes.

But Yeruashi thought everything was fine as it was.

He was completely satisfied with the title of Hokage, so it was decided not to make any changes.

The Hokage building was rebuilt again, this time several surrounding buildings were demolished for expansion.

The new Hokage building has seven floors.

The top two floors serve as the Hokage's personal residence, and the remaining five are the sealing room, the conference room, the offices of the Hokage, Shikaku, Tsunade and the department heads, the mission receiving and issuing department, etc.

Yeruashi was very happy with the new Hokage building, because it was not very spacious before, now there was only one problem, after the reconstruction of the Hokage building, many people constantly come to play Mahjong.

Yeruashi looked at Konoha.

He saw Might Duy running around Konoha, children studying at the Shinobi Academy and Hinata listening attentively to the Chuunin master....

He saw Shikaku going through a stack of documents, Mei bathing in the bathroom, Kurenai cleaning the room, Orochimaru studying Otsutsuki Urashiki's cells and Kurama playing in a clearing outside Konoha....

Looking at Konoha, where life was bustling, Yeruashi smiled involuntarily, feeling a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

After all, it was he who had created this prosperous world.

Silence.

Yeruashi's figure disappeared from the roof of the building.
