"Yes! Lord Fifth, I guarantee I will complete the mission!!"
Hiashi quickly patted his chest and promised!!
"Not only do you have to complete the mission, but you also have to be fast!! After you've dealt with the bandits, take these rogue ninja to deal with those feudal lords and nobles!!"
"The progress of purging those feudal lords and nobles is still too slow. We need to speed things up!"
Uchiha Shin said, glancing at Shikaku.
"Yes!!!"
Shikaku nodded!
"Kakashi, continue to recruit rogue ninja!"
Uchiha Shin said.
"Yes!"
Kakashi said.
"Does Kakashi have anything to report?"
Uchiha Shin glanced at everyone, his gaze finally resting on Kakashi.
"No!!"
Kakashi said decisively.
"Alright!"
Uchiha Shin was a bit speechless.
They were all advisors, yet the other three had more to report than the last, and Kakashi didn't even say a word!
He was something else.
"In that case, let me say a few more words!"
Uchiha Shin said.
The four of them focused their attention and listened carefully!
"I have decided to add another advisor!"
With a whoosh, the gazes of all four of them turned to Tsunade!
"That's right, it's Tsunade! Do you have any objections to this?"
Uchiha Shin asked.
"None!!"
Shikaku, Hiashi, and Kakashi quickly responded.
But Uchiha Setsuna hesitated.
"Elder Setsuna, do you have any problem?"
Uchiha Shin asked.
"No!"
After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Setsuna ultimately did not voice his concerns in public.
"Since no one has any objections, then it's settled!"
Uchiha Shin said.
The reason he chose to make Tsunade the fifth advisor, besides her absolute loyalty to him, was actually to ease the atmosphere within Konoha.
Although Uchiha Shin had won a series of battles and firmly established his position as Hokage, and his prestige had surpassed that of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, in a short period of time, the villagers' fear of him was greater than their respect.
In addition, some people were afraid that Uchiha Shin would still settle scores with those who had opposed him in the past.
Now, by making Tsunade an advisor, he was sending a signal that the past was in the past!
In the future, as long as everyone didn't cause trouble and didn't oppose him as the Hokage, if you had the ability, even if you wanted to be an official and rise in rank, it wasn't impossible!
"Seeing you all, I suddenly have an idea!"
Uchiha Shin smiled faintly.
"What idea??"
Shikaku and the others looked bewildered.
"There are exactly five of you!! In the future, you will be called the Five Elder Stars, the Five Elder Stars under the King!"
Uchiha Shin suddenly joked.
"The Five Elder Stars? That name sounds quite impressive!!"
Hiashi muttered to himself!!
"Lord Fifth gave us this name in the hope that we can become the pillars that can solve the king's worries?!!"
Shikaku said with a grin.
"That's about it!!"
Uchiha Shin smiled!
"I like this name. In the future, we will be the Five Elder Stars!"
Hiashi said with a satisfied smile.
"In that case, let's officially assign the work of you Five Elder Stars!"
"Shikaku, from now on, you will be one of the Five Elder Stars, the Minister of Political Affairs!"
"Elder Setsuna, from now on, you will be one of the Five Elder Stars, the Minister of Finance!"
"Kakashi, from now on, you will be the Minister of Logistics and Support among the Five Elder Stars!"
"Hiashi, from now on, you will be one of the Five Elder Stars, the Minister of Public Security and Defense!"
"Tsunade, from now on, you will be the Minister of Legal Affairs among the Five Elder Stars!"
Uchiha Shin said with a smile!!
"Yes!"
The five of them responded in unison.
"Um, I have a question!!"
Tsunade suddenly raised her hand and asked.
"What question?"
Uchiha Shin asked.
"What is the Minister of Legal Affairs mainly responsible for??"
Tsunade asked.
Hearing Tsunade's words, the other four were also intrigued.
Uchiha Shin glanced at Tsunade, then at the other four, and said with a faint smile: "Everyone, times are different now. Before, we only had Konoha and didn't need to spend much effort. Now, the entire Land of Fire is under our jurisdiction, and we have a lot to do!!"
"Among them, supervising officials, investigating official malfeasance and crimes, and maintaining the integrity of officials are very important!!"
"It's not an exaggeration to say that it concerns the rise and fall, the life and death of the country."
"Tsunade, after you take office as the Minister of Legal Affairs! You will select a group of elites to form the Ministry of Supervision! Supervise the conduct of all officials in the country!"
"Any problems!!"
Uchiha Shin said with a smile.
"In addition, you will also be my secretary. In the future, if there is anything, you will relay it to me!"
"No problem!"
Tsunade had a look of realization.
The four advisors beside her, however, gasped.
The Minister of Legal Affairs also being the Hokage's secretary.
Tsunade had come from behind and jumped right over their heads!!
She might even be in charge of them.
"Um, Lord Fifth."
At this time, Hiashi spoke up.
"What is it?!"
Uchiha Shin asked.
"Can Lady Tsunade's Ministry of Legal Affairs supervise us, the Five Elder Stars??"
Hiashi asked.
This question was very crucial.
If she could, then in the future, they would really have to act according to Tsunade's mood!
The other few also looked at Uchiha Shin.
"In terms of status, the five of you are equal! The Ministry of Legal Affairs naturally has no authority over you."
"In fact, the Ministry of Legal Affairs will not even manage the affairs of ninja, unless those ninja are serving in the local government! As for you, if you commit a crime!"
"It will only be the Anbu who come to your door!"
Uchiha Shin said with a faint smile!
"I see, that's good!!"
The few of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief!
As for the Anbu, they were not afraid of the Anbu.
As long as they were not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Legal Affairs, it was fine.
The Anbu's power was indeed great, but the Anbu was a knife in Uchiha Shin's hand and would generally not be used against them.
Because the Anbu coming to their door meant that Uchiha Shin was going to take action against them!
"Any other questions?"
Uchiha Shin asked.
"Lord Fifth, I have one more question!!"
At this time, Hiashi said.
"What question??"
"As the Minister of Public Security and Defense, do I directly manage all the ninja of Konoha?"
