Chapter 291 Naruto has been in power for too long
After the surgery on Orochimaru's side.
After sending Xiang Rin out, Xiang Rin left Orochimaru's laboratory and came outside.
Under a tree, Xianglin knocked on the tree twice.
An ANBU appeared.
Xianglin recalled Master Xia Mu’s explanation:
"Report to the Hokage-sama, Uchiha Fugaku does have an eye problem and is blind."
"Uchiha Itachi's eyes are also nearly blind. Both of them now need Orochimaru-sama to clone their eyes."
"Uchiha Shisui has been transferred back by Natsuki, and is now looking after Fugaku and Itachi at Lord Orochimaru."
"Understood."
The ANBU didn't say much and disappeared in a flash.
A sly smile appeared on Xianglin's little face, and she felt that the Third Hokage was like an idiot.
He has always been fooled around by Natsuki-sama and Orochimaru-sama.
…
The ANBU soon arrived at the Hokage's office.
After listening to the ANBU report.
The Third Hokage waved the ANBU down.
After receiving such news, the Third Hokage felt at ease.
Both Fugaku and Itachi are blind. Even if their eyes are cloned, they won't be the Mangekyō Sharingan anymore.
In this case, only Natsuki and Shisui are left as the top Uchiha combat power, and the possibility of a military coup is low.
As long as Uchiha cannot make a coup by force, the pressure on the third generation will not be so great, especially in this special period.
However, Natsuki was a treacherous person. The Third Hokage did not dare to underestimate Natsuki. He only wanted to see what Natsuki would do next.
Was thinking.
The ANBU from outside came in again to report.
After Natsuki came out from Orochimaru, he went to the Hyuga clan alone.
The third generation frowned again. After the peace talks with Kumogakure a few years ago, Hinata became alienated from the Hokage family.
Although the Hyuga clan stole the secret recipe of catering later, the relationship between Uchiha and Hinata did not become estranged.
Instead, Uchiha handed over the management of all the shops on Eighth Street to Hinata.
Uchiha and Hinata have a close relationship and are very passive to Naruto.
In recent years, Hinata has managed the police force very well and handled various problems well.
Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen is the third Hokage, he has no reason to blame the Hyuga clan.
This time Natsuki went to Hinata again, not knowing what Natsuki was planning to do.
The monthly high-level meeting of Konoha will be held soon, and whether Uchiha will participate this time is also a question.
I don’t know where the war between Kumogakure and Kirigakure will go.
There were many thoughts in his head, and the Third Hokage also felt particularly tired.
He sighed and stood up.
He walked to the window, looked out at the bustling lights, picked up his pipe and took a deep drag.
…
The land of the Hyuga clan.
As soon as Natsuki arrived, he was invited in by the Hyuga clan.
Natsuki has already been here once, and when she came again, she still felt that the Hinata family's clan was very elegantly decorated.
Rockeries, courtyards, green bamboos, and mountain springs are all arranged just right.
In other respects, let’s not talk about three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry.
Huge trees prevent prying eyes, and barriers to weaken perception are also fully deployed.
Even Xia Mu's Eternal Eye was greatly suppressed.
Natsuki observed as he walked, these are all areas that can be improved in the Uchiha clan.
Natsuki had an appointment a long time ago, so when he came, Hinata Hizashi was waiting in the clan.
"Hizashi, long time no see."
Natsuki came to Hizashi's study again and sat opposite Hizashi.
Hizashi poured a cup of tea for Natsuki and said.
"It's rare that Natsuki you have time to come over."
Xia Mu took a sip of tea and said, "Hizashi, you've been quite busy lately."
Ri almost nodded:
"Kumogakure and Kirigakure are going to fight. I don't know how the war will go after that. Konoha's security level has also been increased."
【
】
Xia Mu knocked lightly on the table:
"Don't worry, Kumogakure and Kirigakure won't fight for long."
Xia Mu's voice was very determined.
oh?
Hizashi looked up at Natsuki in confusion.
Natsuki gave him a meaningful smile.
Hizashi saw that Xiamu didn't talk about it, nor did he dwell on this issue, but he wrote down the information.
The Hyuga clan knew about the previous fight between Natsuki and Orochimaru.
The Third Hokage directly ordered Hinata to block nearby streets.
However, Hinata didn't know the specific situation inside the barrier.
But what is certain is that Orochimaru is on the Hokage's side.
"Did you fight Orochimaru a few days ago?"
Natsuki waved his hand nonchalantly: "I suffered a small loss and exchanged some benefits with the Third Hokage."
"The Third Hokage has given another honorary elder position."
If there are two honorary elders in a family, they have greater authority in Konoha.
Now before, Hinata was the only two honorary elders in Konoha, and now Uchiha is added.
"Hizashi, do you feel that Sarutobi Hiruzen has been sitting in the position of Hokage for too long?"
Hizashi had a meal on his hands.
It seemed that Xia Mu would suddenly say this.
Then he said slowly: "It's been a long time."
Xia Mu chuckled:
"Hizashi, who do you think is more suitable to be the Fifth Hokage?"
Hizashi wasn't sure what Xia Mu was thinking and didn't answer directly.
"Anyway, our Hyuga clan is not suitable, but the Third Hokage seems to have no intention of resigning."
Xia Mu said unconcernedly:
"That's because the elders and families are used to it. If new people can make our family develop better, someone will definitely mention it."
Generally speaking, the position of Hokage is held when the previous generation dies or the previous generation has the idea of resigning, and then the next Hokage will be voted on.
But there is another way, which is proposed by any elder above the Hokage Council.
As long as more than two-thirds of the elders agree to re-election, even the current Hokage cannot stop it.
However, this method has never appeared since it was formulated.
The reputation of the first generation and the second generation is too high, and there is no situation where two-thirds of the elders dissatisfied with him.
After this rule was established, it has not been used yet.
Xia Mu said casually: "Long-term and absolute rights will corrupt people."
"There were a lot of people who could be the fourth generation back then, but why did Rope Tree, Broken Fang, and White Fang all pass away unexpectedly, and only Minato, who had no background, came to the position."
Hizashi's hand shook and he almost knocked over the teacup.
Xia Mu laughed:
"Don't be nervous, Hizashi, this is your territory."
Hizashi smiled bitterly:
"Xiamu, don't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing without evidence."
Xia Mu shook his head disapprovingly:
"Other things require evidence. Does White Fang's matter require evidence?"
Hizashi was silent.
Indeed, other things can be said without evidence.
But what happened with White Fang doesn't make sense logically.
Complete the mission or save your companions, this is nothing more than a matter of choice.
No matter how much damage is caused, rumors should not spread in the village.
At that time, White Fang was a hero who had made great achievements for the village.
Normally, even if there are discordant sounds, they should be cut off by the ANBU as soon as possible.
It's even less likely to cause uproar in the city.
What's outrageous is that the Third Hokage was pretending to be deaf and dumb when the rumors first spread.
After White Fang died, the Third Hokage immediately jumped out to calm the turmoil, saying that White Fang was a hero and heroes should not be treated like this.
They even punished some people in disguise.
Kakashi was young at that time and had no ability to distinguish many things, and he thought that the third generation was very good.
He has been loyal to the Third Hokage for so many years.
