Chapter 37 I will be the Hokage! Never be so weak!

Using the body of Hizashi, Hyuuga's younger brother, in exchange for Raikage's satisfaction was a choice he and Hiruzen agreed on.

As a branch, Hyuga Hizashi is labeled as a caged bird, and will activate the Destruction Byakugan once he dies.

Don't worry about rolling your eyes.

Moreover, as Hizashi has the same appearance as Hizu, it is enough to pass it off as real and send it to Raikage as Hizu's corpse.

This portion should be enough to satisfy Raikage.

This is the perfect choice.

But something they didn't expect happened. Hinata and Hizu could tell the results of their private discussions so easily.

Still in this meeting that was specifically designed to put pressure on Namikaze Mirai.

How can such a thing be brought to light?

There was a trace of anger in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

What's going on with this guy Rizu?

Hadn't he been reminded not to mention this matter in the meeting?

As Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hizu angrily, shocked discussions rang out in the conference room.

"Exchanging Hizu's younger brother for the Raikage's satisfaction? When did we, Konoha, become so weak?"

"Hinata is the largest ninja clan in Konoha. If this happens to our clan..."

"Is it wrong for a father to protect his daughter?"

Amidst the noisy and shocked voices, Hinata Hinata did not avoid it and directly met the angry gaze of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Eyes calm.

Hokage-sama, please forgive me for going against you this time.

His memory went back to the day before this meeting.

…

"No!"

"How can I let Hizashi die in my place? Neji is only four years old!"

"This is the result of discussions between our elders. The Hokage has already agreed. As a branch, isn't it just at times like this that it comes into play?"

"How could I agree to such a thing and let my own brother die on my behalf..."

Hinata Hinata slumped on the bun, never expecting that things would develop into this situation.

"Brother, I have agreed."

Hinata Hizashi, who had almost the same appearance, with a bandage on his forehead, was kneeling on the tuft in front of him, his eyes gentle.

"As a branch family, isn't it just to protect the clan?"

"Being able to die protecting my brother is the best outcome for me as a younger brother."

Hinata Hinashi clenched his fists unwillingly.

"Damn it! How could it become like this?"

How could they accept this kind of thing!

"So, you want to change that?"

The closed door slowly slid open, and a calm but heavy voice sounded outside the room.

Hinata Hiashi raised his head and looked at the blond figure that suddenly appeared.

His eyes were shocked.

"Future, why are you here?"

This is Hinata's meeting hall. How could Namikaze Mirai come here?

So he heard all the conversation just now?

"Can you really accept letting your own brother die on your behalf?"

Namikaze Mirai looked down at Hinata Hinashi.

His biomagnetic field perception enveloped the entire Hinata, and what happened here could not be hidden from his eyes.

Hinata Hizu had tears in his eyes and clenched his hands unwillingly.

"If possible, I would never make this choice. It's just the Hokage's side..."

"Just leave it to me, Hokage. From now on, please do exactly what I say."

After listening to Namikaze Mirai's words, Hinata Hinashi's eyes went from confusion to surprise to shock.

"Why are you helping me?"

"I'm not helping you, I'm helping your brother."

"I?"

Hizashi, who was ready to die, did not expect that things would change like this, and looked at Namikaze Mirai in astonishment.

I want to find the answer to the matter from his face.

There was a hint of sadness in Namikaze Mirai's blue eyes.

That was a completely different emotion from his hard appearance.

"Perhaps it's because we are both younger brothers and want to protect him, right?"

Hinata Hizashi looked at Namikaze Mirai who was in despair, and his body suddenly trembled.

He suddenly remembered.

When that night happened, Namikaze Mirai was not in the village and could only watch Minato die.

Nothing can be done.

…

Rizu! Why!

Why do this?

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hinata and Hinashi with fire burning in his eyes, and his heavy and angry eyes seemed to be questioning him repeatedly.

Hasn’t the matter of day difference been decided?

How could such a thing be brought to light!

Put it under the eyes of all Konoha high-level officials!

Is it possible that you want them to see that your Hokage used your brother's death in exchange for the Raikage's appeasement?

"Hokage-dono, I would like to ask, is what Hinata Hizashi said true?"

The question was asked by the leader of the Inuzuka clan.

If even Hinata was treated like this, what would happen to a small clan like them?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his sweaty palms, his eyes changed from struggling, to hesitating, to finally tired...

"Yes."

Uproar!

There was an uproar!

Konoha actually had to sacrifice the life of the Hyuga clan leader's younger brother in order to calm down the Raikage?

The most ridiculous thing in the world!

Konoha is the strongest ninja village!

To be so tolerant, it is almost shameful to sacrifice the interests of the ninja clan in the village!

Besides, Yunyin Village was obviously at fault in this matter, right?

Rizu was just trying to protect his daughter!

Namikaze Mirai was still leaning back casually on the chair, and his sitting posture had not changed since he came in until now.

It seems that this result has been expected.

"My Hokage-sama, when did Konoha become so weak? Do you want to use the life of the brother of the clan leader in exchange for the forgiveness of a mere Kumogakure village?"

Namikaze Mirai's seemingly casual words fell into Sarutobi Hiruzen's ears, and they seemed to be an invisible fire, burning his spirit and body.

The heads of the various ninja clans around him were also filled with dissatisfaction.

Frustrated!

So damn frustrating!

"This is for Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked unbearable and sighed.

"Hizashi is a ninja who truly implements the will of fire. He chose this path for the sake of his beliefs."

As soon as his voice fell, hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe laughter suddenly sounded, first a sneer, then a laugh, and finally an uncontrollable laughter!

"Hahahahahaha!!! What a fucking Will of Fire!"

Namikaze Mirai threw his head back and laughed wildly, his shoulders shaking violently uncontrollably.

This wild laughter fell into the eyes of the Uchiha Setsuna people nearby, and their eyes suddenly lit up!

Namikaze Mirai's wild laughter was even more standard than theirs!

"You can express cowardice in such a refreshing and refined way, Sarutobi Hiruzen, you are thicker-skinned than I thought!"

"The peace agreement signed by Kumoyin Village was a pretense from the beginning. The purpose was to plot the blood succession of Konoha! As the Hokage, you clearly know this, but you also want to sacrifice the life of the unrelated Hizashi to pray for the Raikage's death. forgive!"

"Sandaime, you are too weak! Where is the character of Shinobu?"

"If I were the Hokage, I would never be so weak!"

As soon as he said this, Danzo next to him couldn't bear it anymore and glared at him.

"Future, do you know what you are talking about?"
