Chapter 20 020. I am Hokage

After a busy night, the Third Hokage held a high-level meeting in the Hokage Building overnight.

Soon, the elder advisors, Koharu, Mitomon Yan, and the root organization leader Danzo came to the conference room.

In the structure of Konoha Ninja Village, there are many high-level ninjas, such as the ministers of various departments and the patriarchs of big families who hold important positions.

But right now, there are only these four people who can really decide Konoha's fate. .

It's just that the combined age of these people is over two hundred years old, and they don't see any young faces at all, which inevitably makes people worry about Konoha's future.

After being woken up to attend the meeting, Koharu looked at the Third Hokage with a little displeasure, and asked, "Is there any major event that Hokage called us old fellows over?"

"There are indeed major incidents that require you to improve your reference."

The Third Hokage showed a wry smile, and then briefly explained the two things that happened last night.

After the two consultants listened, their expressions became extremely serious. After exchanging eyes with each other, they said slowly:

"The killing of the leader of the Yunyin Mission Group and the attack on Injuriki are indeed very difficult things, but the top priority is to find the murderer of these two incidents. Does Hokage have any information?"

"The ninja who attacked Jinchuriki has already been killed by Jinchuriki, and his body is so fragmented that it is impossible to check his memory. As for the murderer who killed the head of the Yunyin envoy, he has been found, but things are even more difficult."

After pondering for a while, Sandai Hokage continued: "Because it was the head of the Nichizu clan who killed the head of the envoy, and the head of the Nishizu clan also had a legitimate reason. It was the head of the envoy who broke into the camp first and took people from the Hyuga clan hostage."

Turning to the bed Xiaochun frowned: "It seems that Yunyin provoked the incident first. Their target was Baiyan, but they were killed by the Hyuga clan during the kidnapping. There is nothing wrong with the Hyuga clan."

The Third Hokage nodded, and then said: "But now the embassy group uses the killing of the leader as an excuse to ask us to hand over the murderer, otherwise we will tear up all the results of the previous peace talks and continue the war."

Turning bed Xiaochun asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

The Third Hokage did not answer, but looked at Mitomon Yan, and asked, "Yan, how many supplies are there in the village, and whether they can support the consumption of the battlefield."

Mito Menyan, who was in charge of money and food, after some calculations, said:

"It's not impossible to continue fighting, but the supplies and money are a bit stretched, so we can only increase the percentage of mission rewards and reduce pensions and expenditures of various departments."

After a pause, Mitomon Yan quietly glanced at Danzo and Sandai Hokage, and then said: "However, the reduction of funds has already caused complaints from the guard. If the reduction continues, the Uchiha clan will be even more dissatisfied, and there may be trouble."

"Also, Yan Yin seems to be restless, and may end at any time."

"That's it..."

The third Hokage's face was as gloomy as water, and he was caught in a dilemma.

Judging from the current situation, if the battlefield continues, it will be missed by Yan Yin, and the contradictions within the village will further accumulate.

But let the Hyuga Clan hand over the patriarch, and the Hyuga Clan and the Hokage Building may be at odds.

At this time, Danzo, who remained silent, took a deep look at the Third Hokage, and said abruptly: "Hiizhan, you seem to have forgotten something, such as those cloud ninjas who appeared near Renzhu Riki's house last night..."

"The goal of Yunyin's bastards is not just to roll their eyes, but also their strength."

Hearing this, Sandai Hokage glared at Danzo, but Danzo said disapprovingly: "Kunin had attacked his predecessor Jinchuriki more than ten years ago, and they have always had thoughts about Konoha's Kyuubi."

The Third Hokage coughed and reminded, "Danzo, Kushina was not Jinchuriki back then."

Danzo said unceremoniously: "There is no difference between the two, and Yunyin dares to let us hand over the murderer today, and dares to tear up the treaty directly tomorrow. Blindly giving in will only make them press harder and harder."

"Hizhan, don't forget Hokage's duty, give Yunyin some color."

With these words, the face of the third Hokage who said it became more and more ugly, and he snorted coldly: "Yes, why don't you let your subordinates go to the front line to stop Yun Ninja, just to see the achievements of the roots over the years."

"The root is the assassination of special forces, and it is a waste to use it on the front line."

After the third Hokage mentioned the root, Danzo quickly changed the subject. For him, the root is the real weapon that belongs to him, and it is also one of the capitals for him to become Hokage in the future.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing."

Turning to bed, Xiaochun couldn't see it anymore, and took the initiative to say: "Let's think about how to solve these troubles. There is no point in arguing at the meeting. Just vote directly. My opinion is to compromise with Yunyin."

Mitomonyan adjusted his glasses and said, "Qianliang does not support war, and I also oppose the continuation of war."

Seeing that the two advisors were opposed to continuing the war, Danzo's face was cloudy and uncertain, and finally said: "I abstain, neither against nor in favor."

The remaining three generations of Hokage do not need to continue to vote, they will all oppose the continuation of the war.

After the vote, Zhuanzhu Xiaochun was a little worried and said: "Everyone is against continuing the war, so what should the diplomatic mission do? Who will make the Hyuga clan hand over the murderer? This is not easy to appease."

Mitomonyan remained silent, and Danzo had a sarcastic expression on his face, and he had no intention of volunteering.

The Third Hokage said helplessly: "Let me go, I will go to the Hyuga clan, explain the pros and cons to them, and let them sacrifice for the overall situation, everything is for the village."

After dealing with the incident of the missions, the high-level meeting is almost over.

Compared with the envoy incident, the attack on Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is not worth mentioning at all. Although Jinchuriki is important, nothing happened after all, and everything is under control.

...

After the meeting, Sandai Hokage called Danzo to the Hokage office.

Danzo looked at Sandai Hokage with doubts on his face, as if he didn't understand the other party's intention to call him over.

The Third Hokage stared into Danzo's eyes, took out a document from the drawer, and said:

"Last night, in addition to the attack on Jinchuriki, there was also a Chunin named Amakaze who disappeared, and the time of his disappearance was the same as the time when Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was attacked, and his Konoha forehead guard was also found at the scene. "

"Is there anything you want to explain about this?"

Danzo frowned, and said with displeasure: "He is not my subordinate, and I don't need to take action against Jinjuriki. I didn't take any action at my root last night."

"Of course I know that he is not the root of your subordinates, but he is the old department of Minato!"

Having said this, the Third Hokage got a little impatient, stood up and said sharply: "Please explain to me, why the old Minato department attacked Naruto? Why?!"

Danzang's face changed: "This matter has nothing to do with me, it may be his own fault."

After venting, Sandai Hokage regained his demeanor, and looked at Danzo with falcon-like eyes: "This is the last time, I don't care what you think in private, but you have to remember."

"I am Hokage!"
