Konoha: This ninja is suspicious by nature

Chapter 114 Konoha high-level decision
Hokage Building, high-level conference room.

After going to bed, Koharu held a pen and paper in his hand, sitting at the conference table and taking notes. Behind him, Mito Kabuto was pacing back and forth on his old legs.

"The alliance agreement with Sunagakure has been re-drafted, and it is basically the same as the original one."

Koharu said, "It's just that they require us, Konoha, to provide special assistance to their Sunagakure in the next year."

Yan stopped and asked, "What is special assistance?"

Koharu looked at the record book and replied: "Send powerful ninjas to do their bidding when they need it, and specifically assign Moonlight to pay attention."

Yan started to pace again and said angrily:
"Hey, that careful thing is really a great thing. Hiruzen is too willful to hide such an important matter from the higher-ups. You and I are also old people in Konoha. Don't we deserve their trust?"

The two were high-level advisers to Konoha. After Orochimaru attacked Konoha, they learned the ins and outs of the matter from Asma. Although they also believed that it was more appropriate for the third generation to act this way, after all, it was without high-level resolution. This kind of This approach made them feel a little uncomfortable.

Is the high-level Konoha just a decoration?no!Absolutely not!Both of them think so.

"Be careful not to act like this because of Chiao from the Sealing Department. I don't know why Ri Zhan trusts the Sealing Department so much. A small member of the Sealing Department can lead such a big event. Let them decide. We are too old."

Xiaochun put down the pen and paper, shook his head and said with emotion.

"Koharu! The second-generation master has left Konoha in our hands, and he will die with all his strength. How can he talk about being old?"

Yan said righteously.

Then analyzed: "I heard that the Fourth Kazekage was killed by Orochimaru, and there must be constant fighting within Sunagakure. The alliance with them should continue to be maintained. If they want Konoha to contribute, we will respond."

After a pause, he continued: "It's just that the one who paid attention was in the limelight. Everyone in the upper echelons of Konoha knew that he was the leader of this operation. He even defeated Orochimaru with Hiruzen. If he hadn't been young, there might be others. Let him be Hokage."

"It's exactly what I said. If a tree is as beautiful as the forest wind, it will be destroyed. For the future of Konoha, we should suppress it appropriately." Koharu agreed.The two of them concluded the matter in a few words.

"A family cannot be left without an owner for a day. The choice of Hokage is the primary issue we have to deal with at the moment."

Xiaochun introduced the topic of today’s meeting.

Then he asked tentatively: "How about Qianxu? She is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan and has a close relationship with the Senju clan."

"No, although she is very powerful and masters the secret sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan, she has status but lacks popularity and is an outsider. How can she become Hokage?"

Yan firmly opposed.

"According to her personality, even if we want her to be her, we will still be rejected, so we don't ask for trouble."

Koharu chuckled, and Chio's name was crossed out by her in the notebook.

"How is Danzo?" Koharu asked again.

Yan rolled his eyes at Koharu angrily, "He has been kicked out of the high-level advisory group, and his reputation is not as good as that of Chio. How can the Konoha ninjas be convinced?"

He pulled out a chair and sat next to Xiaochun, and said in a low voice: "People like him can only be used, not taught."

"How about Kakashi, Gai, and Asuma?" Old God Koharu continued to ask.

"Hey, you just pretend to be confused because you understand." Yan Nose said impatiently, "Jiraiya!"

"Why?" Xiaochun asked knowingly.

There was no one else in the conference room at this time, and Enya no longer kept secrets, and said frankly: "Jiraiya is strong enough to carry the Cauldron of Konoha, and has no family background. In addition, he has not been exposed to Konoha political affairs for many years, so he must rely on you and me. "But as far as I know, Jiraiya has no ambition to be Hokage. Hiruzen also gave way to him, but he refused."

Xiaochun said slowly.

Yan raised the frame of his glasses and said: "This moment is not the other moment. Now that Konoha is leaderless, it is a time of crisis and distress. We should actively persuade them."

The two thought for a while, and Koharu added: "If Jiraiya refuses to obey, what about Tsunade?"

Yan thought about it carefully and said: "That's okay. Jiraiya and Tsunade are both legitimate and in similar situations, but Tsunade has a hot temper, and you and I will suffer."

"It doesn't matter. As long as we recommend the Hokage candidate, we will have a place in the top management of Konoha. Although Tsunade is ambitious, after becoming Hokage, she cannot act alone." Koharu nodded.

The two of them were both satisfied after discussing the matter, and discussed various matters regarding Konoha in the future.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and the two looked at each other and made up their minds.

"Come in." Yan said.

The person who came was none other than Shimura Danzo. He walked in, blocked the sunlight outside the window with his hands, and sat on the backlit seat of the conference table.

"I haven't been here for a long time, come and sit for a while." Danzo said.

"Is there anything to report?" Yan asked seriously.

"No, it's just that I haven't seen my old classmate for a long time. Come and have a look."

Danzo chuckled. The three of them had been interacting with each other for a long time since childhood, and their thoughts were self-evident.

"Hiruzhan passed away suddenly. Although I am sad, I must continue his legacy. The position of Hokage of Konoha cannot remain vacant. It must be settled early to appease everyone's hearts."

Yan and Koharu cast puzzled and somewhat contemptuous looks, and Danzo immediately explained: "Haha, I am the root of Konoha, hidden underground to provide nutrients to the leaves, but once the sun shines on me, I am nothing more than a dead tree."

"The two of you should also know that my Danzo has self-knowledge." Danzo said meaningfully.

"However, you also know that the Konoha ninjas of the new era will not pay attention to the old trees of our older generation. No matter who becomes Hokage, we old trees will not be as calm as before. .”

"What do you want to say Danzo?" Koharu asked with a straight face.

"If it weren't for Hiruzen, how could you and I have always occupied a high position? If it weren't for the friendship between classmates, Hiruzen would have walked alone in Konoha long ago. Would it be your turn to point fingers?"

"But please speak clearly!" Yan increased his voice, making his old voice more majestic. Although he did not deny what Danzo said in his heart, he was very dissatisfied with his condescending attitude.

"Whether it's Jiraiya or Tsunade, they will reuse Konoha youths like Kakashi Metkai, and even Moonlight Heed. By then we will be on our deathbed and withdraw from the stage of Konoha history."

Danzo spoke slowly.

"The replacement of the old with the new is the unchanging common sense." Xiaochun said with a soft hum.

Danzo added without comment: "We summoned Chio the night before Hiruzen died, why didn't he come to us?"

He paused and glanced at the two of them.

"Qiano has won Hiruzen's trust. Even though Hiruzen died, the sealing department will definitely join the high-level group after this battle, and they will definitely follow the lead of the new Hokage. Where will the two of you go then?"
