Especially in Konoha, this is even more difficult.

The ninja clan within Konoha is very powerful and has always been the leader of the village.

Since the Hokage, all high-level officials who can participate in Konoha's decision-making are from the Ninja clan and have a family share behind them.

The establishment of the ninja school took a lot of effort. Although the ninja clan recognized the ninja school, they did not make the family's ninjutsu information available to the public, but continued to choose "family" education.

What civilians accept will always be the basics.

The teachings of the Ninja clan extend the basic teachings to make the children of the family stronger.

One step ahead, one step ahead.

Therefore, there are only a handful of civilians who can stand out from the tens of thousands of Konoha ninjas, and most of them are backed by the ninja clan.

Hiruzen understands this, and Shikaku also understands this.

Even Chiba Shiraishi in the Kingdom of Demons relied on the power of the Uchiha clan to get started.

In the ranking of the ninja clan, the Uchiha clan has always been ranked first after the decline of the Senju clan.

The connections, resources, and ninjutsu this family controls are all due to individual civilians, and it will be difficult to surpass them in their lifetime.

The wealth accumulated through thousands of years of accumulation is not something that can only be calculated by pure money.

That is the bloodline limited ninja clan with a longer history than the five major nations.

The Ninja Village was established, and the Ninja clan occupied the most power in it. This kind of thing cannot be changed and cannot be changed.

They have all put in a lot of effort to form the village, so naturally they must be given the status and benefits they deserve, otherwise the Ninja Village will lose the loyalty of the Ninja clan.

Without the ninja forces joining in, Konoha would not have been able to defeat powerful enemies again and again in the past.

Therefore, the power of the ninja clan is the cornerstone of the ninja village. To put it more broadly, it is also one of the foundations for the implementation of the one-country-one-village system.

If this part of the interests were leveraged, neither Hiruzen nor Shikaku could imagine what the consequences would be.

"Reform is not appropriate now. Today's international environment does not allow us to do so."

Lu Jiu thought for a moment and gave his own suggestion.

It's not that he doesn't want Konoha to reform, but he can't change it now.

Unstable diplomacy in the world. At the same time, Daming Mansion is mired in the quagmire of the Rain Kingdom war. The Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Ghosts are eyeing each other. These external environmental problems have not yet been improved. If reforms are carried out rashly, these external forces will attack the Land of Fire.

Country, Konoha will collapse on its own.

This kind of reform is not as simple as health care reform, and it will not touch most interest groups.

If Konoha does not have a safe international environment and continues to implement this kind of reform, it will soon die.

The proposal was good, but the timing was wrong.

Konoha doesn't have time.

The most important thing is that there are too many uncertain factors.

Any reform can only be a reference, not an imitation.

The reform of the Kingdom of Ghosts has high reference value, but it has no practical significance.

Unless... all class barriers are broken down and a new order is established.

But how is this possible?

Even the country of ghosts would probably not dare to do this.

Doing this would be tantamount to offending the daimyo and nobles of all countries except the Demon Country, as well as the Ninja Village forces.

"Reject Tsunade's proposal?"

Hiruzen asked.

"It's just that it's not the right time now. As for the future, no one knows what will happen. Maybe this is also a kind of temptation for Tsunade-sama."

Shikaku said meaningfully.

Hiruzen understood.

He had already conveyed his intention to Tsunade through Jiraiya to let her serve as the fifth Hokage.

If Tsunade becomes dissatisfied with Konoha because of this kind of thing, then the gain outweighs the loss.

Moreover, he also saw the benefits of reform to Konoha. From a long-term perspective, it would be beneficial to Konoha.

But what is good for Konoha is not necessarily good for the Fire Nation.

The two powerful political powers of Damingfu and Konoha cannot get along.

Therefore, specific situations can only be analyzed concretely.

He believed that there was no shortage of such talents in Konoha.

On the basis of the one-country-one-village system, this method may not only satisfy the common people, but also reassure the daimyo and nobles, as well as the ninja clan.

"Shikaku, this matter will be left to your Nara clan to handle. I will dispatch all the documentation you need."

Hiruzen said.

"Yes. I didn't expect that one day I would also make up for the history of the ninja world."

Lu Jiu said with a wry smile.

The reforms proposed by Tsunade did involve his blind spots in knowledge.

No matter how smart he is, most of what he has learned since childhood is how to manage the village, how to command the ninja troops, and assist the Hokage to balance the situation within the ninja village.
