The inauguration ceremony of the first Hokage was held as scheduled.
The people attending the ceremony were patriarchs of various clans, four elders, and the newly formed Hokage guard troops. And also Daimyo himself and a little girl he carried, and his 6 bodyguards of 18 ninja guards.
“This girl must not be even 10 years old, I think she is not the daughter of Daimyo, although quite cute.. I am not Lolicon, but maybe Daimyo who is 50 years old.”.
There are various reasons why Daimyo came and decided to attach the Land of Fire to Konoha.
Shinobi is an unusual job here. From the very beginning of Ninjutsu, created by the Sage of the Six Path (RikudoSennin), Shinobi began to squeeze its way into the warrior community in this world and also began to open its own history.
The rise of the Shinobi also gave birth to a period of warring states that lasted for centuries.
It can be said that up until now, the Shinobi was a harbinger of destruction and rarely took part in creation.
In the warring states period, the main policy of many clans was to cultivate and train themselves to produce the strongest Shinobi in the entire continent. The weak must bow to the strong. And relatively weak clans like the Uzumaki clan had to pay tribute to the strong.
But after the birth of Konohagakure, all this changed. Everyone gets the same rights. They share the same fundamentals and dreams, and there is no aggression between each other.
Therefore in order to ensure lasting prosperity, resource issues had to be resolved, Masahiko also thought of some ways to solve them.
The first thing is to take on the mission of the people outside the village, to ensure a minimum supply of cash for the maintenance of the village. But this was clearly just a drop in the bucket. In a desperate situation, Konoha could only rely on Daimyo and get funding from him.
So now, Konoha is partly a military partner owned by the Fire Nation, but it still has its own autonomy.
Therefore, Daimyo's presence in the Hokage inauguration is to ensure that this cooperation continues to run smoothly for the benefit of both parties.
It was almost noon, and almost all the spectators had come, Masahiko nodded to Tobirama, and the latter walked to the front of the stage.
“I officially announce the beginning of the inauguration with the words of the man himself, Hokage!”
“Pfft...” Silent for a moment, but Masahiko laughed, he laughed loudly, so he felt very embarrassed. He looked around after that and immediately apologized. He did not expect that they would accept his proposal. As he looked at Hashirama's nervous expression, he couldn't help but laugh.
Hashirama took a deep breath, then he stepped forward and started his honest speech,
“Today we are gathered here for the first time to officially announce the establishment of Konoha, this is truly a glorious moment. We will finally say goodbye to our previous lives, where there was only war and welcome our new life of peace and harmony. To ensure this peace, let us join hands to protect the future of our village!”
“I am very honored to be chosen as the First Hokage,” Hashirama wiped the tears from his eyes, “I will use all my strength to ensure the peace and prosperity of our village!”
Hashirama then took a breath of a few seconds, then he continued, “Thousands of years ago, after the death of Rikudou Sennin, this world has sunk into an endless period of war, no end, we fight each other for Bijuu which he left for us, seeking power..”
“In this long period of war, the world was left torn apart and destroyed. Ninjas or civilians alike are victims of this war.”
Hashirama looks back at Madara, “Even friends can't tell each other their surnames for fear war could break out at any time.”
“Kids will be sent to the battlefield to fight at any time, many people lost their families in the war.”
“But I must say, with our strength, everyone can live harmoniously away from the war in this village. No more war! No more hatred! People can tell their surnames without fear, and no more children will die in vain.”.
“Era Peaceful... Will Come!”
With that shout, Hashirama ended his speech. Hashirama's words shook the entire village and made it quiet.
“Peace... Does it really come?”
Suddenly they screamed and shouted in excitement.
“Life Hokage! Live peacefully!”
“No need to fight anymore!”
“I... Actually, live to see today!”
“Hokage Salam!”
Watching this scene really warms Hashirama's heart.
Masahiko, who had been sitting on the stage all this time, hearing Hashirama's speech, inevitably thought, “I didn't realize it in the past, this man known as the first Hokage is very strong, he said, but it's still funny. He is also kind and warm-hearted. Now I understand why people call him a ninja god, it's not because of his strength alone.”
This was unlike the long meeting Masahiko attended in his past life, talking to representatives repeatedly.
After the Hokage's speech, the inauguration was officially over, but the people had not disbanded, the ninjas and civilians alike enjoyed the moment, and the village was caught up in an unplanned festival.
The ceremony was not completed until the night. The patriarchs of several clans bid farewell and began to leave one after another, while Hashirama took the initiative to take Daimyo on a walk around the village. And show him the harmony of Konoha.
Madara doesn't seem interested in spending time with Daimyo. Although, she felt she had to talk to Hashirama about something, now that their dream had come true…
Tenjin said goodbye to Hashirama. Now only Masahiko, Shikaryu, Madara, and Hashirama remain.
All became tour guides and introduced the village to Daimyo.
Masahiko then took the initiative to speak, “Daimyo-Sama, do you remember me?”
“Are you .. Oh yes, 108 Stars of Destiny!”
Masahiko's face darkened, it seemed like Daimyo still held a grudge against him, and he felt he shouldn't have taken the initiative.
Therefore, Hashirama and Shikaryu were busy explaining to Daimyo, and Masahiko and Madara were doing guard duty.
Then the sky started to darken as the sun started to set. Hashirama takes Daimyo to a room, which is specially made for him. Daimyo's hand was held by a girl who had followed him ever since.
“Patriark Senju.. Oh no, I must call you Hokage. She will be nine years old this year.”
Masahiko smiled, he finally got the answer, Daimyo is not Lolicon, she is really his daughter.
“I heard Hokage has a child named Senju Kenji, who will be 13 years old this year.”
“We'd better arrange their marriage and give my daughter to your son. Of course, after he turned 16. What do you think?”
Hashirama. In order to maintain the purity of blood, noble families rarely marry off their descendants to outsiders. However, after noticing some of the signals and blinks Shikaryu and Tobirama gave him, Hashirama agreed.
As for Masahiko, he no longer had any intention for anything. She only thought of one thing, this little “Girl will be the mother of one of the three Legendary Sannin Tsunade.?”.
