Chapter 412 Utatane Koharu: I am the new first generation Nabekage?

If it were someone else, they would probably grit their teeth and take the blame, because once these words got out, it would have a certain impact and blow to the reputation of the Third Hokage.

But Jingyi will not take the blame for the Third Hokage.

It's true that I brought the news back, but I warned you!

The Cloud Village seems suitable, but it is actually risky. Although the Iwagakure is poor and needs Konoha's help, Ohnoki of the Iwagakure is more tolerant.

Being able to endure means being able to develop stably, and stable development is also what Konoha needs.

But you, the Third Hokage, didn't believe in evil and directly chose the Cloud Village. Can you blame me for that?

Is there such a thing?

Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and looked at each other in strange ways. They thought that this was Jingyi's fault, but they didn't expect that it was the Third Hokage's fault.

"By the way, the Hokage also consulted with the two advisory elders, and the final result was that the Kumogakure Village became Konoha's ally. Two elders, do you want to say a few words?"

Utatane Koharu: “............”

What? I have to take the blame too?

The corner of Mizuto Menen's mouth twitched. His thoughts at that time were actually quite similar to Jingyi's.

Although he didn't think highly of the Iwagakure, he was optimistic about Shizuka. But... it was all because of Koharu Utsune.

If it wasn't for this old woman's chattering to convince the Third Hokage, the Third Hokage would not have completely turned to the Cloud Village.

Realizing that he would also be blamed, Mitomon Yan said aggrievedly: "It was Elder Xiaochun who suggested it. It has nothing to do with me."

"Men Yan, you........"

Utatane Koharu couldn't believe that Mito Kado En had sold herself out.

The Third Hokage also looked at him in shock.

You, Mizutomon En with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you didn't agree at that time, but you didn't object either. Why are you putting all the blame on Nekoharu now?

and many more!

Someone is taking the blame.

This is a good thing.

It's better for Utane Koharu to take the blame than for him, the Hokage.

Then the Third Hokage's expression changed and he sighed:

"Perhaps I shouldn't have listened to some unreliable remarks at that time."

"I..." Utane Koharu was dumbfounded.

This is completely putting the blame on someone.

No, you play like this?

As for Mitomon En, he chose to remain neutral and not cause any trouble, and he certainly doesn't want to take the blame. This is understandable, after all, he really disagrees.

But Rizen, do you have the nerve to do that?

You'd better take the blame for this.

Mizutomon En gave Utane Koharu a suggestive look.

He was able to pass the buck successfully because he was able to and he was qualified to do so. The Third Hokage passed the buck because carrying this blame on him would affect the reputation of the Hokage and even bring a certain blow to his reputation.

After all, the village had just ended the war and was still recuperating, and there were too many people in the village who opposed the war.

If the villagers knew that the village was going to be plunged into war again because of the Third Hokage, they would definitely be in an uproar.

Therefore, it is most appropriate for Koharu to bear this blame.

As for Danzo Shimura...who the hell is he?

Is he qualified to take the blame?

OK, you guys are ruthless!!

Mitomon En hinted to Utane Koharu to take the blame and stop making trouble. The Third Hokage also looked very regretful. Utane Koharu could only grit his teeth and said word by word:

"It's my fault, old woman, for not being able to see through the Kumogakure's plan!"

Xiaochun is a good comrade.

The Third Hokage secretly gave him a look of gratitude, but unfortunately Utane Koharu didn't buy it.

gratitude?

Forget it. Once the news gets out, I wonder how many people in the village will scold her.

This gratitude was too heavy for Xiaochun to bear.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, if you don't compensate me afterwards, I will never let you go!!!

Utatane Koharu decided that she must be compensated by the Third Hokage, otherwise it would be too unfair for her to be blamed. Although she and Danzo Shimura both voted in favor and persuaded the Third Hokage, the problem was that the Third Hokage himself was also inclined to form an alliance with the Kumogakure.

What happened? Danzo Shimura turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside, and the Third Hokage couldn't take the blame, so it was she, Koharu Tenne, who suffered.

What kind of truth is this?

"Alas." The Third Hokage sighed, "When Jingyi gave me advice, I also thought about it carefully. Later, under the persuasion of Elder Xiaochun, I chose the Cloud Village. This is my problem, and I will reflect on it."

Utatane Koharu: “............”

Just say it once, don't keep nagging me over and over again, or I'll expose your true colors!!!

Fortunately, the Third Hokage was a sensible person and did not continue to harp on about Utane Koharu and complain about her sympathy.

"Everyone, the Cloud Village's intention is very clear. That is, the war between the Cloud Village and the Mist Village may break out at any time."

After a pause, the Third Hokage continued: "The war between the two villages broke out on the sea. The village has not developed its maritime power. We can't help in such a war."

"But as an ally, we have the duty to assist our allies. How can we delay the Iwagakure and prevent it from getting involved in the war?"

As long as the Iwagakure does not participate, there is no possibility that Konoha will go to war. At this moment, Konoha will not take the initiative to provoke a war, let alone fight a fierce battle for the Kumogakure and Iwagakure.

Konoha cannot bear the consequences of that.

Everyone in the conference room understood what the Third Hokage meant. The war between the Cloud Village and the Mist Village was basically inevitable. Even if a war did not start, long-term confrontation and friction were inevitable.

Fortunately, Konoha does not need to get involved here anymore, because Konoha has not developed its maritime power and does not have enough warships. Who the hell would participate in a naval war?

Although Konoha does not have to worry about the war at sea, there is still a big trouble waiting for it in the north.

"The relationship between the Iwagakure and the Kumogakure is very bad. This is something known to the ninja world. Once the Iwagakure thinks that the right opportunity has been found, I think Ohnoki will not mind taking the opportunity to start a war against the Kumogakure."

It can be said that as arrogant as the Cloud Ninja Village was in the past, it is as embarrassed at this moment.

The Iwagakure, which has always been bullied by them, will not hesitate to start a war if it gets the chance.

Even if the Cloud Village and the Mist Village did not actually fight.

In such a chaotic situation, the Iwagakure declared war on the Kumogakure. Once the war broke out, the Mist Village would certainly not be able to hold back and would turn the confrontation into a declaration of war.

Two against one, and the Iwagakure Village is leading the way, is there any need to hesitate?

Just do it and it's done.

"Huruzen, the relationship between the Iwagakure and the Kumogakure is too bad. You and I both know who Ōnoki is. I'm afraid Ōnoki will not miss this opportunity."

Akimichi Toukou, who rarely attended a meeting and sat on a chair for two people, said worriedly, "It may be difficult for the Iwagakure to keep its troops in place."
