Chapter 267 Internal Troubles

"If a war breaks out, Konoha's military expenses will be covered by our two major families, and the pension costs will be doubled."

"I personally went to the scene and, as a pure ninja, followed the commander's orders and strangled the Kumogakure ninja until the end of the war."

"Hokage-sama, are these promises enough?"

He didn't believe that Kumogakure dared to start a large-scale battlefield. Wouldn't that mean giving up the superior military strength he had finally accumulated and giving Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure a chance to catch up from behind?

The Fourth Raikage may seem rough and rash, but he is actually rough and subtle, shrewd and restrained. Even if he is impulsive, the other senior officials of Kumogakure will not let the Fourth Raikage mess around.

If small-scale wars continued to break out, that would be exactly what he wanted, and he would be able to collect souls on the battlefield.

Once the beating hurts Yunyin, Yunyin himself will stop.

As for the lost money, it doesn't matter to him at all. The rich people in this world are his mobile vaults.

If the funds in the Uchiha clan's public treasury are insufficient, just go and get them. If you do well, you can use them directly without using family funds.

Konoha F4 and Raizo were shocked when they heard this. This guy is so brave. He really dares to take big risks and make promises. It's very difficult to bluff.

"Chief of the Hizu Clan, what do you say?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked in his heart and said expressionlessly.

Hinata Hizumi has not opened his mind like Uchiha Gen and Orochimaru, so he feels reluctant, distressed, and hesitant about the military expenditures and pension expenses...

But now, Hyuga Hizashi also understands that it is impossible to retreat in the face of the battle, otherwise he will offend both the high-level officials of Konoha and Uchiha Gen, and end up being a double-faced person.

At that time, the Hyuga clan will definitely be in a difficult situation and it will be very difficult to get along...

Therefore, Hyuga Hichizu hesitated for a moment and then gritted his teeth and said: "If a war breaks out, the Hyuga clan is willing to bear half of the military expenses and pension expenses!"

Uchiha Gen heard this and glanced at Hinata Hinashi with admiration, resisting the pressure, it was not bad.

"Your Excellency Lei Zang, you have also seen the situation."

"The matter has come to this, and I, the Hokage, can't say anything more."

"It's up to you to figure out what your village wants to do."

After that, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and left with a sullen face, and Danzo and the other three also stood up and left.

They all left, and Lei Zang had no interest in staying around. After saying a harsh word, he stood up and walked out.

"Just wait until the family goes bankrupt and dies on the battlefield."

Genko Uchiha was not one to suffer, so he immediately counterattacked.

"Bah, a bunch of chickens and dogs who don't know the heights of the sky. What do they call dogs?"

Raizo paused, his eyes seemed to spit fire, but thinking that he was no match and this was someone else's territory, he suppressed his anger and left.

After the Kumogakure delegation left, Hinata Hiashi said worriedly: "Isn't this a little too arrogant?"

"Yunyin is a tough guy and not soft. The more arrogant he is, the more afraid they will be."

"Look at this."

Uchiha Gen handed the summary transcript of the Kumogakure mission to Hinata and Hinashi.

Hinata Hizu read it carefully after taking it, his face became increasingly ugly, and finally he couldn't control his emotions and threw the transcript on the table angrily.

"Although there is no evidence and only some clues, there is a high probability that Konoha high-level officials are cooperating with the Kumogakure mission."

"Hmph, it's really too much to join forces with outsiders to plot against one of our own people. Such unscrupulous means are too much." Hinata Hinatsu said with a dissatisfied face.

"Just get used to it. Suppressing dissenters is always done by any means necessary."

"Anyway, the matter has finally come to an end. The final outcome depends on the reaction of Kumogakure headquarters."

"But no matter what, the probability of a large-scale war is extremely small, so don't worry too much."

After saying that, Uchiha Gen got up and walked to his desk. Today's documents have not been processed yet.

"Well, I'll go back to my family to report. I'll take my leave."

Seeing this, Hinata said goodbye knowingly.

"good."

…

The Hokage Building, Hokage Office, and Konoha F4 gathered together, and the atmosphere was quite solemn.

"Hiruzen, this Uchiha Gen is an ambitious scourge. He leads the police department to cause trouble, and now he has ruined our plan."

"You should have been put to death at the beginning, but now it has become a serious problem. You are still too soft-hearted."

Danzo's face was heavy, but there was a burst of joy in his heart. His vision was indeed excellent.

You didn't listen to me at first, do you regret it now?

Sarutobi Hiruzen really regretted it in his heart, but it was impossible to admit it. He said expressionlessly: "He is a double-edged sword. It depends on how to use it. We just haven't found a way to control him yet."

"I think it's too difficult to control him. It's better to destroy him cleanly."

"It's not that easy. Do you have a good idea?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe, lit it in his mouth, and exhaled a strong stream of smoke from his mouth and nose. His usually amiable face was expressionless and looked a bit sinister.

"With Gen Uchiha's character, the public opinion we are accustomed to should be of no use to him. Physical destruction is the most direct and effective way."

"But he is very powerful and can fly the thunder god technique. The success rate of frontal siege is too low, so he can only use secret calculations."

"I think we can start from the people around him." Danzo said with a sinister smile.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said, "Taiyin damage is a bit despicable."

"Hiruzhan, this is for the good of Konoha. With Gen Uchiha here, there will be endless fighting within Konoha and there will never be peace." Mito Kadoen said.

"Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. Konoha can only have one voice. Only in this way can we unite and recreate glory." Koharu said after going to bed.

The two of them didn't have any good impressions of Uchiha Gennaturally, so when they saw this, they added fuel to the flames and fanned the flames.

Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's just this once, it won't be the same next time."

In the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen's senses for Uchiha Gen were not excellent, but they were pretty good, but this year, his impression took a turn for the worse and was already negative.

But the main reason is that Uchiha Gen has threatened Sarutobi Hiruzen and others' rule of Konoha.

After this incident, Konoha F4's patience has been exhausted and they can no longer bear it.

"Danzo, what are your plans?" Mito Kadobu asked with anticipation.

"There are no specific plans yet, it's just a temporary idea, just a vague idea."

"I plan to slowly penetrate and brainwash Uchiha Itachi."

"This person seems to be polite, but in fact he is arrogant and restrained. He thinks very highly of himself. His relationship with Gen Uchiha is complicated and he is easy to provoke."

"The most important thing is that I am young and my thoughts are not yet mature."

"Of course, other people can't give up completely. They should be exposed to temptation slowly. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises."

Mito Menyan turned to bed and Koharu nodded slightly, expressing his agreement with his idea.

Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment, then took off his pipe and said: "Uchiha Shisui can also be included in the main target."

"He is a descendant of Kagami, and was adopted as a disciple by the fourth generation. He is a ninja with the will of fire."

"knew."

"By the way, do you want to kill the Kumogakure mission and start a war?" Danzo said with a twinkle in his eye.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glared and said decisively: "Of course not!"

"Konoha needs to recuperate. Gen Uchiha is not worth paying such a price to deal with. Just let nature take its course."

"Remember, don't do any tricks, otherwise I will kill you!"

At the end of the sentence, Hiruzen Sarutobi sounded fierce and murderous.

Danzo felt a chill in his heart and said, "I know, I won't do it."

At the same time, Raizo wrote a report on what happened in Konoha and sent it back to Kumogakure Village through Kumogakure's intelligence channels...
