Chapter 518: Spies are causing trouble, and the Sarutobi clan is pushed to the forefront

The affairs of the Hyuga clan have caused a lot of buzz in the village.

Yan also took the opportunity to announce the situation of each ninja family to the outside world.

Let the villagers realize that the ninja family is not as mysterious as they imagined.

Of course, the inheritance and secrets of each family cannot be made public, and Yan will not really dig into the roots of the ninja family.

The purpose of appropriately releasing some intelligence information about the ninja family is to bring the two sides closer together.

The villagers unconsciously believe that the ninja family is not so superior and incomparable.

In fact, many families, especially some small families and ninja families with poor finances, do not live as well as some civilian families.

At this time, some sharp-eyed villagers discovered the blind spot.

"Aren't the Sarutobi clan a ninja clan? When did they become a civilian clan?"

"Who knows? I haven't heard of it either. It might have been announced a long time ago."

“That’s not right, why can commoner families develop better than big families like the Uchiha and Hyuga?

There are too many ninjas in their family."

At this time, doubts arose. The Hyuga and Uchiha ninja families were big families known to the villagers, and they had always been very mysterious.

The villagers also acknowledge the power of these big families.

But what about the Sarutobi clan?

They are known as a civilian family, but they have more ninjas than the Uchiha family, and are even almost catching up with the sum of the Uchiha and Hyuga families. This seems a bit wrong.

Even though Genin make up a large portion of them, the villagers will still focus on the key points.

What we are curious about is why there are so many ninjas in the Sarutobi clan, almost comparable to the sum of the Hyuga and Uchiha clans, rather than discussing what proportion of Genin there is in the Sarutobi clan.

Ninjas do not engage in production, so it costs a lot to support a ninja.

After all, not all ninjas can rely on missions and commissions to make ends meet and cover family expenses.

There are many ninjas who make a living on missions and commissions on the surface, but secretly take private jobs and do business to make money, and their number is huge.

So the question is, how did the Sarutobi clan support so many ninjas?

"What on earth does he want to do!!!"

When the Third Hokage learned all this, he was so angry that he trembled all over.

He just went to the Hokage's office to make some suggestions, and then revenge came as soon as he turned around.

As for?

I am just worried that the Hyuga clan's affairs will get out of hand. I didn't come here with any selfish motives. Do you really want to turn your back on me and take revenge on me?

The Third Hokage felt like he was backstabbed.

Although Yan didn't say it, he was secretly taking revenge on the Sarutobi clan.

As a result, after the basic information of each family was announced, the Sarutobi clan became the protagonist of public opinion.

Together with the Hyuga clan, they became the two most powerful people in Konoha's public opinion.

The Hyuga clan does not treat their branch families as human beings, and the Sarutobi clan is even more exaggerated. They support the ninjas of the two big families of Uchiha and Hyuga combined. How did they train them?

Can you bear it?

Following the Hyuga clan, the Sarutobi clan also became the center of public opinion, which Yan had not expected.

He just thinks that if some intelligence information is to be made public, it should be made public to everyone. There is no reason why other families can do it but the Sarutobi clan cannot?

There is no intention to target the Sarutobi clan at all.

Unfortunately, the Sarutobi clan had too many flaws, and the villagers directly exploited their pain points.

Both the Hyuga and Uchiha families have a lot of family businesses, so there is no problem in supporting these ninjas in the family.

In addition, many ninjas from the two families are focused on carrying out missions and commissions, and some of them have positions, so there are not too many ninjas who need to be supported by their families.

What about the Sarutobi clan?

The Sarutobi clan's property...

It doesn't seem like too much.

Position.......

There are quite a few ninjas working for the village.

But even so, income and expenditure are not balanced.

How to raise it?

Is it possible to earn a hundred yuan and support a large family with tens of thousands of expenses?

That would be fine, but you are still using the slogan of a commoner family. Do commoners have families?

The blind spot was discovered, and the grievances that some civilian ninjas had endured in the past were made public, which directly added fuel to the fire.

The Sarutobi clan is actually a blood-sucking worm!!

From the Sandaime Hokage to an ordinary Genin, they all suck blood from the village and use the village's money to support the ninjas of their family.

The news spread quickly.

The Third Hokage could no longer sit still and came to the Hokage's office once again. He needed Yan to give him an account, a reasonable explanation.

However, the Third Hokage himself did not expect that when he arrived at the Hokage's office, before he had the chance to question Yan, his anger was directly dissipated.

"Continue to report."

Yan glanced at the Third Hokage who ran in without knocking, ignored him, and signaled the Anbu people to continue reporting.

"Yes."

The Anbu ninja continued:

"We followed the intelligence and clues we found and eventually captured a number of spies. They deliberately released the information in order to distort the villagers' understanding, anger them, and then direct the conflict towards the Sarutobi clan."

"The Assistant-sama has published the basic information of many ninja families in the form of a notice, which has given these people an opportunity. They hope to disrupt Konoha and guide public opinion in Konoha."

"Have the interrogation results come out?"

"It has come out. This is the record scroll of the mountain clan."

The Anbu member handed over the scroll immediately.

Yan opened the scroll and took a look at it, then rolled it up and handed it to the Third Hokage:

"Look, the culprits are the Iwagakure and the Mist Village. Why they got involved requires further investigation. The Sarutobi clan's affairs have nothing to do with me, and I, Uchiha Hiko, would not bother to do such a thing."

The suspicion was dispelled without any effort, and the Third Hokage didn't even have a chance to question it before it was declared over.

"Also, this is the news I announced. This is the news spread privately by spies. Read it for yourself. Don't say that I, Uchiha Hiko, don't care about Tsunade's feelings and keep staring at you, the Sarutobi clan."

The Third Hokage read the scrolls over and over again, and his hands were shaking as he held the scrolls.

This is a fucking conspiracy!

Konoha stabbed the Iwagakure in the back by selling supplies to the Sand Village many times, and also drove away the envoys from the Mist Village, which was tantamount to offending the Mist Village.

So the spies from the two villages joined forces and used the Sarutobi clan as an excuse to dig a big hole. Their action was indeed successful, but it was not a thorough success.

Someone spotted the blind spot. Although Yan was a little surprised, he didn't delve into it. After all, you can't treat everyone as fools. There will always be some smart villagers who can grasp the key points.

Once public opinion suddenly changed direction, problems arose.

So the people in the Anbu took action immediately and actually caught a lot of big fish.
