Chapter 76: Dare to hand over the Anbu?

Ever since Akimichi Norifuze was pushed up and Ino-Shika-Chou was marked with Tsunade, Akimichi Norifuze has been fighting wits and courage with them, opposing this today and that tomorrow.

Koharu Utane is already very dissatisfied with the weakening of her power.

Now a rival pops up and starts to give orders. It would be strange if she could endure it.

Still the same as before, still with such a bad temper.

Qiu Daoqufeng sighed:

"What I mean is that the village needs to respond, but we can wait and see what happens in the Sand Village and the Rock Village first."

"The Sand Village took the initiative to provoke a war, but chose not to declare it, which means they don't want to bear the blame. Now that the opportunity has come, they will definitely not be able to resist. There is no need for the Rock Village to take the lead, but Ōnoki has a bad temper."

Akimichi Tofu said it very clearly, the Sand Village just didn't want to bear the blame and be the first to stand out.

That doesn't mean they don't need opportunities.

Now the opportunity has come, because the Rain Village has become the first to speak out. No matter how the war is fought, as long as there is no declaration of war openly, they will not be criticized too much.

Instead, the Rain Village jumped out and declared war on the three major ninja villages, which caused an uproar in the ninja world.

Someone took the lead and the opportunity they had been longing for finally came to them. The Sand Village certainly couldn't resist.

Compared to the urgency of the Sand Village, Konoha does not need to rush forward so quickly. It can just wait and see what happens.

After saying that, Akimichi Tofu secretly glanced at Utane Koharu and sighed helplessly in his heart.

Ever since he was pushed up and took the position of assistant to the Hokage, Utane Koharu's temper has become more and more irritable.

But if you think about it, it's understandable. Originally, the village's medical system was in the hands of someone else, but he came up and forcibly took the medical system away. How could you not be angry?

Without being affected too much, Mitomon Yan, who is still managing the logistics department, remains the same as before.

Although he really wanted to drive Akimichi Norifuze away, he was not as hostile to Akimichi Norifuze as Utatane Koharu was.

It’s not that Mitomon En has a good temper, but because his rights have not been divided.

If Akimichi Norifuge caught the logistics department instead of the medical department, the one who would be furious would not be Utane Koharu, but him, Mito Kado En.

"Humph, Fatty, you're getting weaker and weaker."

Utatane Koharu admitted that what Akimichi Norifuge said made sense, but she just refused to accept it.

Mizuto Menyan smiled and said nothing.

"Koharu."

The Third Hokage could only remind Utatane Koharu that it was okay to lose your temper, but you couldn't bring your personal emotions into work:

"I think Fatty's suggestion is very good. Since the Sand Village can't wait, let's just wait and see what happens. Besides, Ohnoki is indeed not a good-tempered person."

As long as the Sand Village declares war directly, it will definitely irritate Ōnoki.

The meeting ended and Akimichi Tofu left first.

Utatane Koharu said dissatisfiedly: "Huruzen, can Danzo really not be released? The fat man is now Tsunade's man. With him around, many obstacles have appeared among the top management."

"No."

The Third Hokage shook his head and sighed, "Tsunade has confessed that she will not allow Danzo to come out, even if he changes his identity. The fact that Danzo used intelligence to win over Hanzo of the Salamander to assassinate Shizuichi gave her a great stimulus."

"But........"

Utane Koharu still refused to give in.

She didn't care whether Danzo Shimura could be released or not. What she cared about was whether the various departments within the medical system could get them back.

"That's all for now. I'll talk to Tsunade in person after a while."

Konoha has many system departments, but few departments can compare with the importance of the medical department. Even if the Third Hokage wanted to compensate Utane Koharu, he couldn't come up with anything good.

It is impossible to let Tsunade give up the medical department unless other departments that are comparable to the medical department are transferred to Tsunade's control.

The only departments that can be compared to the medical department are the logistics department, the finance department, and the secret department.

Mitomon Yan is in charge of the logistics department. Does it make sense to take him out and exchange him for the medical department?

No.

As for the Ministry of Finance and the Anbu, they cannot be touched.

The Anbu was okay, as Tsunade could control it, but the Treasury was really not okay.

Once Tsunade takes control of the Ministry of Finance, many shady things in the Ministry of Finance will be exposed.

By then, Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation will be truly ruined.

Maybe ask Tsunade for a change?

There are many departments under the medical system. Tsunade can transfer some of them and give them to Utane Koharu as her compensation. Then Utane Koharu can take over the management of the logistics department. In this way, the situation at the top level can be stabilized.

The Ministry of Finance cannot be touched, so he can transfer half of the power of the Anbu to Tsunade.

The Anbu is a department directly controlled by the Hokage. Even if Tsunade controls half of it, it will not have much impact on him.

On the fifth day after the Rain Village declared war on the three major ninja villages, the Sand Village also took the opportunity to rise up and declared war on the Rain Village, Konoha, and the Iwagakure at the same time.

The stimulated Iwagakure also jumped out and declared war on Sand Village, Konoha, and Rain Village at the same time.

Konoha, which had held out until the end, also chose to declare war on several forces, and none of the Sand Village, the Iwagakure, and the Rain Village escaped.

As the three major ninja villages and the Rain Village declared war on several forces, the prelude to the Second Ninja World War was opened.

Konoha, Sand Village, and Iwagakure continue to send reinforcements to the Rain Country, and the battle becomes more and more intense.

The village entered a state of war, and the shadow of war enveloped the entire ninja world. Countries and villages everywhere were directly or indirectly affected.

A large number of reinforcements rushed to the front line, and the three major ninja villages deployed more than two thousand troops in the battlefield of Rain Country!

Don't underestimate the number of two thousand ninjas. Two thousand ninjas gathered together are enough to fight a ninja war of considerable scale.

After a busy day, Tsunade came to the tavern where she usually had dinner with Orochimaru and Jiraiya.

The Third Hokage has been waiting here for a long time.

The table was filled with food and Tsunade's favorite wine.

Tsunade sat across from the Third Hokage, picked up a bottle of wine and poured herself a glass. After drinking it all, her tense nerves relaxed a little, and then she said, "Did that old woman bother you again?"

Tsunade knew that Koharu Utatane had always wanted to take back various departments of the medical system, but she ignored her.

The Third Hokage smiled faintly, took a sip of wine, and said, "Tsunade, the village's medical system covers many departments. I think we can let some of them out."

"Oh?"

Tsunade asked curiously, "How are you going to compensate me, old man? Logistics Department or Finance Department?"

"Cough cough!!!"

The Third Hokage was choked. Although the medical system had many departments, their importance was on the same level as the Logistics Department and the Finance Department. He could only take out these two departments, so what compensation could he talk about?

This is just a waste of time.

"It will allow you to master half of the Anbu."

After calming down, the three Hokage stated their terms of exchange.

"Anbu?"

Old man, you don’t have a fever, do you?

Dare you hand over the Anbu?

Although it is only half, this half means that Tsunade can intervene in many things, and it is possible that she can turn the Anbu into her own exclusive department.
