Chapter 146 The extreme tug of war for interests!

In addition, Jingyi had already played a trick of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys before taking action, so these people in the dark department were even more unwilling to bring bad luck to Jingyi.

"Do you have an arrest warrant?"

Tiger and Eagle both shook their heads.

The order they received was to surround the Shimura clan's territory and not allow anyone to enter or leave. As for arresting people, Jingyi did not say anything.

They don't know whether there will be any next steps.

Fortunately, it was just a siege mission, not an arrest, and the Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief.

He signaled the Hokage's guards to come forward:

"Go forward and inform the people of the Shimura clan, tell them not to panic, I will come forward to handle this matter, and the Anbu people will not harass them again in the future."

The people from the Anbu were caught in the middle and were in a difficult position, and the Third Hokage didn't want to target them.

It was just asking the Hokage's guards to shout a few times across the encirclement, and it didn't count as touching the bottom line of their mission.

The Third Hokage left decisively after handing the matter over to the Hokage Guard. He needed to go to the Anbu headquarters to find Shizuoka. He needed to sit down and have a good talk with Shizuoka.

The village is at war with the Sand Village in River Country, so the village needs stability and can't allow any more unrest.

If Jingyi continues to make such a fuss, God knows what kind of trouble he will get into.

What a shitty pharmaceutical department, what a shitty Anbu privileges, the Third Hokage couldn’t care less about these, he needed the village to stabilize.

As for what the F4 group wants, they can only plan slowly after the war is over.

I can’t move now, and I dare not move.

After leaving the Shimura clan's territory, the Third Hokage headed straight for the Anbu headquarters.

Jingyi has not yet left the headquarters and is in the minister's office, looking over the documents selected by Nara Shikashin.

Nara Shikashin will help him deal with some trivial matters directly.

However, for documents and scrolls that needed to be handled personally by the minister, Nara Shikashin would pick them out and put them aside, waiting for Jingyi to deal with them himself.

He could handle it, but he couldn't replace Jingyi.

Not to mention the rules and regulations, even if Jingyi gave up power, Nara Shikakoshi would not want this power.

Dealing with all kinds of trivial matters is tiring enough. If he, Nara Shikashin, has to take on all these big things, forget about living a peaceful life and just settle down at the headquarters.

If I don't go home for a long time, it will be difficult to explain to the tigress at home.

The Nara clan is well-known in the ninja world for their intelligence, and similarly, they are also well-known for being afraid of their wives.

It seems that no matter how good-tempered or gentle a girl is before marriage, after marrying into the Nara clan, she will become irritable over time.

As the Third Hokage approached, the puppet stationed at the door raised its head and opened its tightly closed eyes, with a green light that was particularly conspicuous in the darkness.

Several pairs of emotionless eyes locked onto him, and the Third Hokage's face darkened:

"I want to see Hinata Shizuka!"

Jingyi, who was sitting in the office, asked the puppets to move aside and let the Third Hokage in.

"Humph!!"

Looking at these retreating puppets, the Third Hokage snorted in dissatisfaction and strode into the Anbu base.

Without the obstruction of the puppets, the Third Hokage reached the minister's office unimpeded. However, the Third Hokage was very unhappy because he found that Jingyi's puppets were guarding every location in the headquarters.

In other words, Jingyi can firmly control the entire headquarters just by sitting in the office.

No one could enter or leave without his order.

Walking into the office, the Third Hokage said bluntly: "Jingyi, we need to sit down and have a good talk."

"Hokage-sama, please take a seat."

Jingyi pulled over the chair made by Nara Shikashin and invited the Third Hokage to sit down.

Very good, you didn’t give me a direct warning.

The Third Hokage, with a bad look on his face, sat down and turned his body: "Jingyi, the Anbu is making too much noise. The village needs a stable situation. The war on the front line is going on. During this period of time, there can be no problems with the stability of the village."

"Hokage-sama wants the village to be stable?"

Jing Yi showed a surprised expression: "But weren't you the one making the noise?"

"Today, the materials of the pharmaceutical department are blocked. Tomorrow, the privileges of the Anbu will be taken back. People in the Anbu will be wooed overtly or covertly. Whenever there is a little movement in the Anbu, these people will run to the Hokage's office to report the news. They are not as excited to see me, the minister, as they are to see the Hokage."

You were the one who started the incident, but now you tell me that the Anbu are causing a big fuss and the village needs stability.

Where is your face?

"........"

The Third Hokage's face turned pale and blue: "The materials for the pharmaceutical department were not blocked by me, and I never said that I would take back the privileges of the Anbu!"

"Are those the two elder advisors?"

Is this an attempt to shirk responsibility?

Well, then I will go directly to Utane Koharu and Mitokado En and see if they will shift the blame to you, the Hokage.

When there are common interests, even hostile relations can become allies.

On the contrary, when interests come into question, not to mention the cooperative relationship, even brothers will fall out.

Are the interests of the Hokage and the Elders secure?

The Third Hokage was choked and speechless on the spot. Anyone else would definitely not go to the two elders for advisors, but be quiet for a while.

Once they get into trouble with those two, given their behavior, they will definitely push it to the Third Hokage first.

The F4 group has become accustomed to this mode of shifting responsibility, except for the unlucky and miserable guy Danzo Shimura, who is destined to always take the blame because he cannot push it away.

"Jingyi, how can you let go of your prejudice against the Shimura clan?"

Peace talks are the most important thing right now.

The Third Hokage did not respond to Shizue's question.

Because this question will put people in an awkward situation.

"I have no prejudice against the Shimura clan, but they have a lot of complaints against me."

Jingyi smiled and spread his hands, leaning back in his chair, and said lazily: "Hokage, have you forgotten? The old man from the Shimura clan actually attacked me at the meeting. I am very curious, when did I, Hyuga Jingyi, offend him."

"I will teach him a lesson, and this will never happen again." The Third Hokage promised.

"Shimura, Sarutobi, and the families behind the two elders will not cause you any more trouble."

"Five hundred sets of equipment, the complete kind."

Jingyi raised her hand and shook it.

Since we are looking at interests, let's make a deal. I have a lot of puppets, so the number of people in the Anbu will increase dramatically, and a lot of equipment will be needed.

"impossible!!!"

The Third Hokage's eyelids twitched a few times, and he decisively refused:

"Five hundred sets are too many. As a member of the Anbu, I think you know very well how expensive a full set of Anbu equipment is. The village cannot afford five hundred sets. After all, we are fighting the Sand Village. A hundred sets at most."

"Four hundred!"

"one hundred!"

"Four hundred!"

"One hundred and five!"

After a struggle between the two, the number of Anbu equipment was finally fixed at 260 sets, and the Third Hokage refused to increase it any further.

"Okay, two hundred and sixty sets of equipment. Send the equipment over. The Anbu people will retreat."
