Chapter 195

Nara Tomokazu looked at the third generation, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised an arc that was not noticeable.

"Zhen Jun first let us create chaos in the Mist Village, and then... there was a loud roar by the lake, and then there were human screams, and then the whole Mist Village turned bloody. In the end, it was too dangerous, so we ran away first."

The third generation Hokage frowned, and listened to a lonely voice, as if he had said it, but it seemed that he had not said it.

After Nara Tomokazu left, the third generation Hokage summoned all the clan leaders to start collecting family taxes. The fact that the Hokage did not send food to the torture department had already caused dissatisfaction among all the families, and now they were still collecting taxes here blatantly.

As the most stingy Hyuga, Hiashi began to pretend to be poor, and he didn't eat tea, rice, oil, and salt. Anyway, it was okay to give a little alms, but there was no more.

The third generation Hokage looked at Uchiha Fugaku. They were the big heads squeezed out of Uchiha. Even if they didn't have it, they would do tasks day and night to earn it to prevent losing face and suppress the Hyuga.

"Hokage, I'm sorry. Some Uchiha suffered lifelong disability due to the incident with Hyuga last time. We have to pay a lot of compensation every month. Now my family is so poor that we have been wearing long pants for three years."

He had discussed with Uchiha Makoto before, and he just needed to learn from Hyuga when it comes to asking for money. If they are poor, they should be poorer than they act.

Uchiha Fugaku pondered for several days and mastered the essence. This is why the Uchiha cried poor at the meeting of the major families in the Hokage office building.

After communicating with Nara Tomokazu, Nara Shikaku, the brain of the Hokage, knew the whole story and was somewhat dissatisfied with the Hokage's collection of family taxes this time.

If this money is spent on the ninja village, it's nothing. The problem is that the interrogation department does not pay wages and mission rewards, and they have to collect taxes from them. Their ninjas are not given supplies when they go to the front line. No one can accept it.

Even Uchiha has learned to pretend to be poor.

Of course, there are also some small families who want to take the opportunity to show their presence, and at the same time, they do not forget to despise the Hyuga and Uchiha. Little do they know that they are such a long-standing family, how can they be compared with the families that appeared after you built the village.

After a meeting, the major families symbolically helped the village to overcome the difficulties, but they felt a little uncomfortable, especially the torture department.

Since Nara Tomokazu came back and talked about this problem, they began to complain that they were bullied by motherless children.

"Okay, everyone, I applied for a few days of vacation for everyone, I hope you can spend it happily."

Since the people in the torture department have been working with Uchiha Makoto, some words don't need to be said too directly, just say it to the point.

Minato, who was also on vacation, was also confused.

Did the Hatake clan disappear? Did they really disappear?

He was struggling whether to report it.

What would Jiraiya do if he was here?

When Minato was extremely distressed, Kushina who suddenly appeared hit his head.

"Minato, have you been hiding something from me these days!"

Kushina was holding a frying pan in her hand, and she would definitely knock it down if Minato didn't agree with her.

"Kushina, there is indeed something very important that has troubled me for many days."

"Tell me about it." Kushina felt a little distressed. In her eyes, Minato was omnipotent.

"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else," Minato narrowed his eyes and whispered in her ear, "The entire Hatake clan disappeared. Kakashi asked me for help, but I don't know what to do."

Kushina was about to scream, but Minato covered her mouth with a slap to prevent the Anbu from hearing.

"How is it possible? They are from the same clan!" Kushina couldn't believe it, and also lowered her voice, "Do you want to go to the interrogation department to ask what to do? They investigate things very quickly."

Minato was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

"I want to, but this matter cannot be publicized too much. Besides, now that Zhenjun is not here, there is no guarantee that anyone will really help Kakashi."

"So, you go tell Jiraiya-sensei and ask him to go find Hokage-sama."

Minato's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt so good. Jiraiya-sensei went to the Hatake clan to collect materials, but found that there was no one there. He went to find the Hokage...

"Kukina, you are my lucky star."

After that, Minato disappeared from the room.

Jiraiya's face showed a gloomy look that did not match his temperament after he learned about the situation.

"Minato, who else knows about this?"

Minato was stunned and replied, "Kakashi, I didn't let him tell anyone."

"Very good, let me handle this matter!"

Jiraiya rarely takes it so seriously. First, it was the Hyuga team, followed by the troops evacuating from the border. Now the Hatake clan has also disappeared. Strange things happen one after another.

"The border troops are now handed over to the interrogation department. They found the deputy captain Baimao on the way," Minato paused.Pause, said: "But the man has gone crazy, the Yamanaka clan did not extract any information from him, according to the torture department, they found him in the alley."

"It should be...something unspeakable happened, and now he is locked up in the Anbu."

Jiraiya touched his chin, always felt something was wrong.

"Why is he not locked up in the torture department? This is the person they brought back!"

"Originally, it was, but when Tomokazu applied for the mission reward, Hokage-sama seemed to refuse, so... Tomokazu applied for a few days of vacation for everyone."

Jiraiya heard it, what the old man was doing, he didn't pay people back from the front line?

"By the way, Jiraiya, have you heard about the news that Zhenjun wiped out half of the Mist Village by himself?"

Jiraiya took a deep breath and changed to a cynical attitude, "I heard about it. I wanted to brag to Orochimaru, but I didn't expect that their little guy wiped out half of the Mist Village in a blink of an eye. The young are really formidable."

"Yes, the Mist Village announced that as long as you meet Zhenjun, you can give up the mission to save your life. Those who survive will get compensation when they go back," Minato sighed, looking a little depressed, "Compared with Zhenjun, I am far behind. He is in the growth stage now, and I am almost at my peak."

"Minato, don't be discouraged, there is one thing you are better than him," Jiraiya patted Minato's shoulder, and comforted him with a wretched face: "You have inherited the teacher's true teachings and have a girlfriend. That bastard followed Orochimaru and will never find a girlfriend in his life, hehehe~"

Minato was a little embarrassed and felt that his teacher thought too much.

"Uh... you're exaggerating, Jiraiya-sensei. The men and women who want to marry Zhenjun can line up from the Uchiha gate to the border of the Fire Country! Many nobles in the Fire Country are asking about Zhenjun's preferences!"

Jiraiya raised a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth, stretched out a finger, and waved it back and forth, with an expression that you don't understand.

"Minato, you are still too naive. Orochimaru likes to explore the prey in his hand by himself, and he will never allow anyone to touch it."
