Chapter 177: Hanyu Promotion Method

This conference room was quite large, and when Hanyu came in, the Third Hokage, several advisors, the heads of the Uchiha and Hyuga families, very handsome ninjas, very ugly ninjas, and nearly thirty other people were already sitting there.

Danzo Shimura walked to the front, while Hanyu found a corner and sat down. After a while, everyone who should have arrived had arrived.

The meeting was chaired by Homura and Koharu, and was intended to discuss various post-war issues in the village.

For example, unlike the wartime system, how should the village rearrange the amount of external tasks and remuneration it undertakes in the future, how should ninjas who were injured and lost their combat effectiveness in the war find new jobs, and whether a large number of ninjas returning to the village from the front battlefield will cause any problems, etc.

After all, even among ninjas, some will have post-war psychological problems. Returning from the bloody front lines to the comfortable village, the ups and downs of this environmental change will also cause great ups and downs in people's psychology, so the village must invest more in psychological counseling and maintaining public order.

Regarding the security of the village, generally speaking, the Uchiha clan will have another chance to be criticized... Konoha's daily security is the responsibility of the Konoha Guard, and the Konoha Guard is the private domain of the Uchiha clan. They have the power to enforce the law on a daily basis, although it is mainly the power to enforce the law for "civil disputes", but using ninjas to control ninjas is an offensive job anyway.

During this discussion, Hanyu just sat quietly in the corner without saying a word. At first, it was quite interesting to listen to these people arguing. After all, it was a new experience for him to witness the village's decisions being made.

However, after two hours, four hours, and eight hours, no matter how much nonsense he talked, he could not attract Hanyu's attention.

He began to daydream, thinking about his own things, and listening attentively to the discussions around him.

But just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him, then Hanyu raised his head as if he sensed something, and found that the person looking at him was none other than the Third Hokage.

The topic that everyone is discussing now is about the promotion of ninja ranks after the war. During the Ninja World War, and even from the formation of Konohagakure Village until the end of the Ninja World War now, the promotion of Konohagakure ninjas has been based on military exploits as the main evaluation criteria. The capable are promoted and the mediocre are eliminated. This is a direct, efficient, concise and convincing way that convinces everyone.

However, this Ninja World War consumed a large amount of manpower from each ninja village, so much so that most people now believe that the bleak war will bring at least fifteen years of peace. In the absence of large-scale wars, it will no longer be appropriate to use battlefield performance as a criterion for ninja promotion in the future.

Without a battlefield, how can there be any real achievements?

Therefore, the assessment standards for ninjas must change. They must shift from bloody wars to simulated exams. Everyone agrees on this, but how the specific exams should be set up has not been determined for the time being.

"Hanyu, you always have a lot of ideas, don't you? Tell me what you think."

At this time, the Third Hokage called Hanyu's name... It turns out that when you feel the teacher's gaze in class, you must never look at him, otherwise he will start asking questions immediately.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that Hanyu had remained silent. Everyone was having a heated discussion about the future of the village, but he was as quiet as a black hole. Not only that, he even looked like he was watching a monkey show from time to time, so it was difficult for the Third Hokage not to notice him.

"Who is this? He's so young. Is he your son?"

"No, I don't know him. Isn't he your son?"

"Wait a minute, Hanyu... this name sounds familiar."

In the conference room, the two ninjas exchanged glances.

In this kind of occasion, only a few people know Hanyu after all.

The Third Hokage had already called his name, so Hanyu had to correct his attitude. He straightened up, cleared his throat, and prepared to speak.

"Although the promotion of ninja ranks generally only consists of a few stages, from graduate to genin, from genin to chunin, and from chunin to jonin, it is a matter of great importance. After all, the village has different combat capability requirements for ninjas of each level, so the method of selecting ninjas with such capabilities is crucial.

The world will be peaceful in the coming period, so it is indeed inappropriate to ask ninjas to prove themselves in actual combat. Examinations are inevitable.

But no matter what, being a ninja is a harsh combat profession, so all promotion exams must be designed to test actual combat capabilities, and it is best to simulate a battlefield environment... Without war, the strength of the ninjas must also be guaranteed, and all ninja promotion exams can actually serve as an occasion to check and judge the overall strength level of the ninjas."

What Hanyu said was very correct, but a bit empty. What everyone wanted was specific and feasible methods, rather than for him to summarize the content of the meeting. Fortunately, he had not finished speaking.

"So, I think the best way is to practice actual combat. Everything should be simple and effective. Select qualified ninjas as the basic benchmark for each level. If the tester can beat this benchmark during combat training, he can be promoted. Otherwise, he will be demoted to the original level.

For example, if a student graduating from a ninja school can defeat a Genin of average strength, he can graduate... How about Orochimaru? Any graduate who can defeat Orochimaru can become a Genin.

As for Chunin...Hatake Sakumo should still be a Chunin. Any Genin who can defeat Hatake Sakumo can be promoted to Chunin.

As for the Jonin, I am not familiar with this combat power range, so I can temporarily put myself there as a benchmark. After all, I just became a Jonin, so a newcomer like me can just serve as the threshold of the Jonin level.

The best of the best will be selected. The combat effectiveness of the ninjas selected in this way will definitely be guaranteed, and the effect will not be worse than the cruel battlefield selection effect..."

What Hanyu said really makes sense. Putting aside himself, the Genin and Chunin selected by Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo are of extremely powerful strength.

So this method is feasible, but the only problem is... maybe in the next ten years, no one in the ninja school will be able to become a Genin, and no Genin will be able to be promoted to a Chunin - even Orochimaru, will probably only be able to be a Genin forever.

Everyone first carefully pondered Hanyu's suggestion, and some people even nodded in approval from time to time, until Hanyu said that he was a newly promoted jonin. Only then did most people realize, damn, isn't this the guy who killed the jinchūriki?

The threshold for becoming a jonin seems a bit high.

So no one can become a jonin if they can't beat him? And then, isn't all this nonsense? What everyone wants is a method for judging upgrades, not a method for retaining a ninja. Who wouldn't want to keep a ninja at his original level for life?

The Third Hokage rubbed his forehead with a headache, then pointed at Hanyu, meaning that you can shut up. The Hokage had given Hanyu enough face, at least he didn't kick him out directly.

Hanyu was speechless. Why didn't everyone understand his good intentions... For every Genin Konoha retained, its combat power would become a little stronger.
