Chapter 421: If you make a mistake, you must admit it; if you are beaten, you must stand upright

“During the Nidaime period, this pattern has continued, but by the time you were the Sandaime, it had changed. There were no good Uchiha people, so the Uchiha’s advice was not important, and they could not speak carelessly.

The Hyuga clan is powerful and does not cooperate with the village on various reforms, so they have no say."

"There are other families or individuals who always become silent for various reasons."

"At this point, the high-level advisory power is in the hands of the Hokage faction, but Hokage-sama said that the high-level meeting has turned into high-level silence. Isn't this ridiculous?"

Never mind, I didn't hear anything.

Nara Shikashin put on a mask of pain, rubbed his face hard, lowered his head, and stared at the teacup in front of him.

Mizuto Menyan's mouth twitched and he lowered his head decisively.

Utane Koharu seemed to want to say something but stopped herself. When she was about to speak, she seemed to remember something and shut up decisively.

Looking at the Third Hokage whose old face had completely darkened, Jingyi continued: "In addition to the right to make suggestions, people in high-level seats also have the right to make decisions, as well as some of the village's unique rights. I am very curious, where have these rights gone?"

"This is not what I meant........."

The Third Hokage tried to defend himself.

There was nothing wrong in what he did, but he cannot take the blame. It will affect his personal reputation.

"Danzo Shimura did it?"

Jingyi laughed again.

The Third Hokage was simply silenced.

You've become accustomed to this excuse after using it for so long, right?

Putting away the smile on his face, Shizue said to the Third Hokage in a meaningful tone:

"Everyone has selfish desires. If I were in your shoes, I would also like to make the top group my own, but since I have done it, I have to take responsibility for whatever happens, instead of having the final say when nothing happens and expecting everyone to contribute when something happens."

"This kind of behavior is unacceptable and shameful, really."

"Just like today's meeting, since the Rock Village has declared war on the Cloud Village, as allies we have no other choice but to fight!"

"Since we can't avoid it, we should plan ahead and stop holding high-level meetings that people will see and feel. No one dares to speak casually because they may be blamed if they speak out."

After saying that, Jingyi did not forget to raise his eyebrows at Kutsumi Koharu, which made Kutsumi Koharu so angry that his old face turned red.

It is me, the new generation scapegoat.

Mizuto Menen also lowered his head tacitly to avoid becoming the third generation to take the scapegoat.

The Third Hokage: "........."

Did I really do something wrong?

At this point he couldn't help but begin to doubt whether his actions over the years were wrong.

Seeing that the Third Hokage was still confused, Jingyi couldn't help but began to shake his head: "It's a good thing to cherish your reputation, but cherishing it too much will be a bad thing. Looking at the ninja world, Ohnoki is a stubborn old man. His reputation is not good, but does it prevent him from becoming the Tsuchikage and leading the Iwagakure?"

"No."

"Does the Third Raikage have a good reputation? I'm afraid nine out of ten people would say he's a troublemaker from the highlands, but does this reputation hinder him?"

"The Third Mizukage of the Mist Village appears to be a gentle man, but secretly he is a bloodthirsty butcher. His apprentice, the newly appointed Fourth Mizukage Yagura, is even more bloodthirsty than him, but they still became Mizukages."

"Does the Third Kazekage need to say more?"

Can’t you become the leader of a village if you have a bad reputation?

That's absolute bullshit. What the villagers care about is what benefits you bring to the village, how you lead the village's development, and whether you protect everyone.

If their reputation was a little worse, the Third Raikage and his men would have been driven out long ago.

The Third Hokage was very careful about his reputation and always wanted to gain a good reputation. Protecting reputation is a good thing, but going overboard is wrong.

Whenever something happens, the first thing they think of is to pass on the blame. The blame that Shimura Danzo once took was probably enough to be blamed by every household in Konoha.

Danzo Shimura can no longer take the blame, so the blame now falls on Koharu Utane and En Mito.

With Mito Kado En remaining neutral, eh, Utane Koharu has become the scapegoat for the second generation, so where is the third generation?

If this continues, who will dare to speak nonsense, who will dare to do anything?

"The facts have proven that reputation is not the deciding factor. Even if your reputation is a little bad, as long as you don't do anything that harms the interests of the village, you are still a hero in the eyes of the villagers."

"So I suggest that we don't hold any high-level meetings in the future. This will make everyone uncomfortable. People who come here can only watch, and even if they have ideas in their hearts, they dare not speak them out. What is the point of these high-level meetings?"

"Hokage-sama, please close the door of the Hokage's office and slowly negotiate."

"Also, don't come to me about the war. There are a lot of things to do in the Anbu, and I don't have time. If you come to me, I will recommend the Shimura clan to the front line."

After saying that, Jing waved to the Third Hokage and said, "Goodbye, go and have your headache."

Ha ha ha ha........

He scolded the Third Hokage in disguise and walked out of the meeting room refreshed.

Why hold a meeting when there is nothing to do?

What a waste of time.

As for whether the Third Hokage would be angry to death, it has nothing to do with Jingyi.

What is there to say?

If you make a mistake, you must admit it; if you are beaten, you must stand at attention!

How great it was when we had absolute power in the past, how uncomfortable it is now that we are at a loss.

Monopoly is not the key. As long as you have ability and talent, everyone will obey you. What we should be afraid of is that you don’t have much ability but still want to monopolize power. You hold all the power in your hands, but still fuss about everything and scratch your head.

After the incident, some people still blame others. Who wouldn’t be afraid if they encounter such a situation?

The blame was thrown at him without any clue.

After leaving the Hokage's office building, when Shizue returned home, she saw Kushina lying dead on the couch.

Make sure it is the real person, not a shadow clone.

"Jingyi!!!"

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Kushina jumped up from the sofa and did a standing long jump from a long distance.

"........"

Raising his hand habitually, Jingyi hugged Kushina who had jumped over from a distance, and said speechlessly: "Aren't you afraid of falling? When will you get home?"

"Hehe, I just came back not long ago. I ate something outside before coming back."

Kushina hugged Jingyi's neck and twisted her body, unwilling to get down.

After being away for a while, she missed Jingyi very much and just wanted to stay with Jingyi for a while.

It’s a pity that Jingyi didn’t spoil her.

As soon as he loosened his grip, he threw Kushina on the sofa, opened the refrigerator, took out two bottles of water, unscrewed the lid and handed one over: "Tell me, what did you do after you went out."

Although Jing's puppets are collecting intelligence information everywhere.

However, Kushina likes to hide in Jin Ya's mouth and dive and run around everywhere, so the information collected is not comprehensive, so she needs to tell it in person.
