In the battle with Tabako, although Kanpū used Sage Mode, but in fact, he was far from using his full strength. Otherwise, he could create 30 Ssadow clones, and then used Sage-Ryumyaku-Kyubi Chakra Mode, and by using Ninjutsu with all that, it is estimated that the entire settlement of the Hyuga Clan would be destroyed by him.
But this is not a life and death battle, so there is no need to do all that.
After defeating Tabako, Hoshino, Inoue and Matsushita announced on the spot that Kanpū officially became the Clan Head of the Gekko Clan!
More than forty clansmen saw the battle with their own eyes and recognized Kanpū's strength, so naturally, no one jumped out to complain.
Then came the important speech of the new Clan Head, Gekko Kanpū!
Putting away the Kusanagi Sword and turning off the Sage Mode, under the gaze of more than forty clansmen, Kanpū walked to the center of the training ground proudly. He looked around, and his chest was inexplicably burning. For a moment, he was full of ambition, aspiration, desire, intent, and determination…
"Speak quickly if you have something to say, don't waste everyone's time." Hoshino didn't give the Clan Head Kanpū any face, and urged him with the breath of alcohol.
Kanpū coughed dryly, and said: "There are thousands of words I want to speak, but everyone wanted to go home to sleep, so I will make a long story short. I, Gekko Kanpū, have the honor to be the new Clan Head of Gekko Clan. Thank you for your support. In order to repay everyone's support, I decided…"
Kanpū breathes deeply, and said, "I decided to make Sister Tabako as the Deputy Clan Head!"
"Cough cough!" Hoshino choked on the alcohol he drank.
"What did you say?" Inoue and Matsushita were dumbfounded.
"What does the Deputy Clan Head mean?" The other clansmen also look at each other, completely confused.
Tabako also looked at Kanpū with a puzzled face.
Kanpū thoughtfully explained: "As the name suggests, the Deputy Clan Head is the Deputy Clan Head, and its main responsibility is to assist me, the Clan Head, in dealing with the big and small matters of the clan! Of course, if I leave the village for a mission, the Deputy Clan Head has the final say on the clan's affairs."
Tabako frowned when she heard this. She vaguely noticed Kanpū's sinister intentions, so she took a step forward and was about to refuse, but Kanpū did not give her a chance to speak.
"Of course, the Deputy Clan Head may not be competent enough, so I decided to set up eighteen more…"
'Will eighteen be too many?'
'There are only a little more than forty people here.'
Kanpū's thoughts revolve, and he immediately changed his words, "Eight more Clan Elders. These eight Elders will assist the Deputy Clan Head in handling the clan's affairs. The Elders are responsible for the Deputy Clan Head, and the Deputy Clan Head is responsible for me, the Clan Head. Do any of you have any opinions?"
'Of course there are opinions!'
Tabako was about to speak, but was interrupted again.
But the one who interrupted her this time is Kanpū's father, Hoshino.
At first, Hoshino at first thinks Kanpū was playing around, after all, the great clans in Konoha only had Clan Head. How can there be any Deputy Clan Head?
After that, he felt that because Kanpū didn't want to fall out with Tabako, he gave her the Deputy Clan Head's position.
Afterwards, he feels that since Kanpū is 18 years old now, he wants to take the opportunity to get close to Tabako and wait for the opportunity to pick her up.
Thinking about it this way, Hoshino couldn't sit still!
"Kanpū, your proposal is very good!"
Hoshino said solemnly, "To be honest, I am still a little worried about giving you the Clan Head's position. After all, you are just a young adult and lack experience. It may be difficult for you to directly manage the clan's affairs, and you might even make mistakes, but with the Deputy Clan Head and eight Elders, with their collective wisdom, I think you will be able to manage the clan well!"
When Inoue and Matsushita heard this, they suddenly realized.
"So that's how it is, Kanpū, didn't expect you to be quite flexible."
"I have no reason to stop you."
The two old men looked Kanpū with satisfaction.
Kanpū showed an awkward and shy smile: 'I just want to be lazy, you guys really think too much.'
"Grandpa, I think you are wrong, Kanpū, he…"
Tabako couldn't bear it any longer. She took Matsushita's hand and wanted to say something, but Matsushita refused. He glared at Tabako, and said, "Alright, Tabako-chan, let's not talk about it, it's already settled, but but the candidates for the eight Clan Elders…"
Hoshino said with a breath of alcohol: "Considering that Kanpū and Tabako are both young and inexperienced, I think at least half of the eight Elders must be experienced clansmen. Considering the future of clan, the remaining four Elders' positions will be given to the younger generation."
"It makes sense."
"It is indeed a good way!"
When the clansman next to him heard it, they all agreed. With the experienced older generation Elders leading them, Kanpū, Tabako and the remaining four young Elders can grow quickly!
"Wait a minute, I…"
Tabako said impatiently, but with the eight Elders' quotas, half of them are for the older generation and half are given to the younger generation, they would definitely try to get it, so who is still in the mood to listen to Tabako's speech.
"Brother, I want to be an Elder!"
Hayate couldn't help but shouted, "I wrote homework for you, I am very capable of handling things!"
After Hayate finished recommending himself, the rest of clansmen couldn't help but followed.
"Cough cough, although I am just an ordinary Chunin, my management skills are still great!"
"I think, I…"
Looked at this 'ugly' scene, Tabako felt very stuffy.
Half an hour later, the eight Elders were selected.
With years of experience as the Clan Head, Hoshino becomes one of the Elders without any dispute.
As Kanpū's little brother, also became an elder through the back door.
The remaining six elders were also elected by everyone, and they all have corresponding management abilities or talents.
"Well, that's it."
Kanpū looked at the eight Elders. He tried his best to remember their names. Unfortunately, he only remembered two of them in the end: Hoshino and Hayate.
'If I knew this, I would not have said eight.'
Kanpū secretly blames himself.
After it was finished, all the clansmen dispersed.
Tabako walked last, her expression is solemn.
"Sister Tabako, please take care of me from now on." Kanpū said with a smile.
"Hmph, you just want to be lazy, don't think I don't know." Tabako looked at him helplessly and dissatisfiedly.
Kanpū sighed and said: "I can't help it. As Anbu, I am too busy with my usual work, so I can only trouble Sister Tabako, but don't worry, I specially arranged the eight elders for you. Just leave the things needed to be done to them."
Tabako looked at Kanpū's expression of 'I was doing it for your own good' and was so angry that she wanted to hit someone.
After sending all the clansmen away, only Kanpū's family are left in the mansion.
"Brother, this is the money you won."
When Hoshino and Keiko left, Hayate hurriedly handed a stack of banknotes to Kanpū, and said excitedly, "I will also be the elder of the clan from now on, Brother, am I particularly majestic now?"
"My stupid younger brother."
Kanpū shook his head and said, "Gekko Clan is just a small clan in the village, what are you happy about being an Elder?"
"I, I…" Hayate was taken aback by Kanpū's words.
Kanpū continued earnestly: "Only by carrying forward our Gekko Clan forward and become the best clan in the Shinobi World, will you, an elder, be majestic."
After thinking about it, Hayate felt that what Kanpū said makes sense, and immediately cheered up: "Brother, I understand, I will manage the clan with all my heart, and will strive to make clan the best as soon as possible…"
"You're wrong about something."
Kanpū interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said, "If you want Gekko Clan to become the best clan in the Shinobi World, you can't do it by management."
"Then, what do we need?" Hayate asked.
"Let me ask you, why is our village known as the strongest in the Shinobi World?" Kanpū did not answer the question and asked instead.
"Of course it's because there are many Shinobi in the village and we have strong…"
Hayate's eyes lit up, he was enlightened instantly, and clapped his hands, "I see, Brother, I'm going to train now!"
Kanpū looked at Hayate's back with relief and said: "Remember to stay up all night."
'Now that Hayate has grown up, his physical fitness has stabilized, and with Body Revival Technique, occasionally training all night will not damage his body.'
Thinking of this, Kanpū yawned and was about to go to sleep.
But at this moment, a wind suddenly came from behind.
Kanpū tilted his head, and the muscles all over his body tensed instantly.
"Gekko Kanpū, Hokage-sama invites you." The person who came is Anbu, and she is also an old friend of Kanpū.
"Wild Cat?" Kanpū put down his vigilance, and said with a smile, "You are still working until so late?"
Wild Cat snorted and said: "I don't want to answer that. Hurry up, Hokage-sama is waiting for you at the Headquarters."
"Understood." Kanpū nodded with a smile.
'But why is Minato looking for me at such a late hour?'
With doubts, Kanpū followed Wild Cat to the Anbu's Headquarters, and then walked to the deepest part of the headquarters. Here is a deep corridor with dim rays of light, and on both sides of the corridor are closed rooms of different sizes.
Here is Anbu's medical laboratory.
Important medical operations, preparation of poisons, antidote, and dissections are all carried out here. In addition, some messy research is also done here.
Kanpū has been here several times before, and at one point, he suspected that this was the laboratory where Hiruzen and Danzo worked together to do the transplant operations of Hashirama's cells, but he has no way to confirm it.
When they got here, Wild Cat stopped. She turned to Kanpū and said, "Go in by yourself. Hokage-sama is waiting for you in the fourth laboratory."
"Okay."
Kanpū nodded, and then walked into the corridor.
Walking through the door of the three laboratories, Kanpū saw two Anbu guarding the door of the fourth laboratory. When they saw Kanpū, they immediately opened the door of the laboratory.
Suddenly, a glaring light shines from the laboratory.
Kanpū squinted his eyes and found that there were quite a few people in the laboratory. Including Minato, Anbu Commander, Eagle, Shikaku, and Hiruzen, there are also many masked Anbu.
Besides these living people, there is also a dead person lying on the operating table: Biwa Juzo!
'Is it related to Akatsuki?'
Kanpū immediately became alert.
Entering the laboratory, Anbu behind him immediately closed the door.
"Hokage-sama, Sandaime-sama, Commander Eagle, Shikaku-sama." Kanpū bowed slightly.
"Kanpū, you are here."
Minato then asked with a smile, "How's your birthday?"
"So-so." Kanpū said.
Although it was his adult birthday, Kanpū only received one birthday gift, which is Rasengan from Minato.
Neither Hoshino nor Keiko prepared gifts for him, although they didn't do so too in the previous years.
There is also his little brother, 'That heartless guy. I used to give him bracelets before!'
Kanpū is depressed.
"Who is the next Clan Head of Gekko Clan?" Hiruzen asked, smoking his pipe.
Although Hoshino's resignation is not a major event, it is not a trivial matter either. It must be reported to Hokage Tower in advance. And as an Advisor, Hiruzen naturally knows a thing or two.
"It's me." Kanpū didn't hide it.
Hiruzen nodded, and said with a smile: "From now on, you will be the Clan Head, Kanpū, the burden on your shoulders will also be heavier. Good luck."
Kanpū nodded.
"Everyone, let's get back to business first, otherwise, we will be here all night." Shikaku lazily interrupted their chat.
Kanpū glanced at Juzo on the operating table and asked: "Could it be that there are any secrets on Juzo's corpse discovered?"
Minato shook his head, and said with a smile: "To be precise, it's not on Juzo's body, but the ring on his hand."
