Infinite war begins with Cao thief.

Chapter 393 Hiruzen, I am the Hokage
Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two did not go outside to greet Dong Huang and the others directly, but entered the meeting room from the back door and sat down first.

If I go out to greet them, it will only weaken their momentum. It would be better to sit on the podium in the venue and wait for Tsunade and others to greet me from a high position.

There were four people who came at that time, but there were only three seats. This was just a good opportunity to give Dong Huang, who had no seat, a warning and thus give Tsunade a hard slap in the face.

Before the seating issue is resolved, the opponent will not be able to get straight to the point, thus further disrupting the opponent's offensive rhythm.

To this day, Sarutobi Hiruzen still believes that everything is mainly due to Tsunade's planning, and Dong Huang is just Tsunade's pawn or collaborator.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has made up his mind to have a big fight with Tsunade and others.

I still say that, you can only take what I give you, and you can’t snatch what I don’t give you!

Peaceful giving up and being forced to abdicate are two different concepts.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen actually regretted not negotiating terms with Tsunade before. He also realized that he had completely fallen into Tsunade's trap. The most important thing was that he did not expect Tsunade to be able to reconcile with the Uchiha clan, but at this time Sarutobi Hiruzen could only hold on.

The reconciliation between the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan was mainly due to Dong Huang and Konoha F4.

Dong Huang's previous blatant visit to Konoha had already reached a tacit understanding with Hyuga Hiashi. After Tsunade secretly appeared in the Hyuga clan and expressed her willingness to accept Hyuga Hinata as her apprentice, Hyuga Hiashi realized that the opportunity had come.

In fact, if there had not been the pressure from the Konoha F4 before, Hyuga Hiashi might not have made the bet so easily, but now the Konoha F4 is in a state of overwhelming power, and Tsunade's identity determines that she is the only candidate for the next Hokage who can convince the public before Jiraiya returns alone without his own power, so Hyuga Hiashi has a very obvious tendency.

Afterwards, when Tsunade sent Hinata Hyuga back, she also brought Uchiha Mikoto and Hyuga Hiashi for a three-party meeting.

This made Hyuga Hiashi realize that Tsunade had reached a very close alliance with the Uchiha clan.

It goes without saying what the renewed alliance between the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan, the two founding families of Konoha, means. Uchiha Mikoto's Mangekyō Sharingan makes Hyuga Hiashi realize that Konoha's F3, which has lost Shimura Danzo, is now at an absolute disadvantage.

At this time, the situation was almost obvious to Hyuga Hiashi, but Konoha F3 was still kept in the dark.

So what are you hesitating about?
It's done!

This time, Hyuga Hiashi has made up his mind and has even gathered the ninjas of the Hyuga clan, ready to follow Tsunade in a military remonstrance!
[I hope that Uchiha Itachi was just used by Uchiha Mikoto, and not turned against him! ]

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen had not yet realized the true undercurrent of this incident. Instead, he was praying that Uchiha Itachi had not betrayed him, but was just being used by Uchiha Mikoto and others.

In his opinion, if Uchiha Itachi was also turned against him, he would be too passive.

However, because Dong Huang, Tsunade and others arrived too quickly, he didn't even dare to drive away Uchiha Itachi, who had been incorporated into today's security team and was now performing security work in the conference room.

Because if he drove them away at this time, it would be considered as showing cowardice in the eyes of other clan leaders and others who would have supported him.

To show weakness at such a crucial moment would be fatal.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two sat down, they heard scolding coming from outside.

"This is a very important meeting place, no outsiders are allowed to enter!"

The Anbu outside the venue faithfully performed their duties.

They were speaking to Dong Huang and his men.

Strictly speaking, among Dong Huang's group, only Tsunade, Uchiha Mikoto, and Hyuga Hiashi could enter.

Under the system of the Ninja Clan, Dong Huang, the Emperor of the Land of Fire, is merely a subordinate of the Ninja Clan. The Anbu of Konoha, especially those around the Third Hokage, are indeed qualified to act arrogantly, not to mention that this is indeed their duty.

However, Dong Huang and his men were here to cause trouble.

Ye Cang, who had no chance to show his ability, took the initiative to attack, and his Scorch Release instantly severely injured two Anbu who were blocking his way.

This is another battle of information asymmetry.

The Anbu did not expect that Dong Huang's men would dare to attack Konoha's Anbu, and they did not expect that Dong Huang's men would be Ye Cang, who uses the Scorch Release.

Konoha actually had information about Ye Cang, but who could have thought that a strong contender for the position of Kazekage would become Dong Huang's plaything?

As long as Ye Cang put on a little makeup, no one would think that. When Dong Huang came to Konoha last time, everyone in Konoha just regarded Ye Cang as a concubine like Himiko.

brush brush --

More Anbu stepped forward, drawing their swords and entering quasi-combat form.

If they hadn't considered that Tsunade, Hyuga Hiashi and Uchiha Mikoto were on the opposite side, they would have taken action, but the identities of these three people were too sensitive. No matter how powerful the Anbu were, they would not dare to easily intensify the conflict without instructions from their superiors.

"Go back!"

Just when all the Anbu were in a dilemma, Tsunade suddenly gave an order with domineering power.

Naturally, the Anbu did not dare to obey Tsunade's orders because their boss was the Third Hokage.

Not to mention that Tsunade is only a possible prince. Even if she is the real prince, she cannot command the emperor's guards, right?

At this scene, Tsunade just sneered: "Don't you want their lives anymore?"

The two Anbu were seriously injured and dying, and only Tsunade had the ability to save their lives.

The ANBU hesitated.

At this time, someone stood up.

The leader of Konoha's Anbu, and the eldest son of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Shinnosuke.

"Thank you for your help, Lady Tsunade, but we suspect that this Scorch-style ninja who dared to attack the Anbu is a spy from the Sand Village. Please hand him over to us for investigation!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke directly set a trap for Tsunade.

What Sarutobi Shinnosuke meant was that Tsunade, you must help save the people, and we will also take your people away.

With the endorsement of Sarutobi Shinnosuke, other Anbu further narrowed the encirclement.

The Anbu ninjas who were able to come here to participate in the defense were all Sarutobi Hiruzen's confidants. Many of them were members of the Sarutobi clan themselves, and their loyalty was quite high.

Tsunade just folded her arms and sneered.

Hinata Hiashi just sneered.

Uchiha Mikoto wanted to take action, but was blocked by Dong Huang.

The show has just begun, why rush?

After all, Dong Huang is a man who has truly seen big scenes. In his eyes, Konoha's internal strife is nothing more than a child's game.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

The Anbu in Konoha gathered more and more.

Ye Cang, who was regarded as a target that must be captured, just smiled and summoned a dozen molten fireballs.

Whether it is Ye Cang or Tsunade, they all have a very high affinity for the Amaterasu Temple. After using sleeping gold to pay war points to exchange for appropriate skills and techniques, their own strength has also improved.

For example, Ye Cang, who should have been a quasi-Kage level before, is now a real Kage level powerhouse. Tsunade's ability has not made a qualitative breakthrough, but she is already very proficient in Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Even Uchiha Kotori, Hinata Ayari and others have seen significant improvements in their strength.

So even if Ye Cang has no backup, she is not afraid of a dozen or twenty Anbu, not to mention that Ye Cang has her strongest backup.

Of course, the other ninja clan leaders in the conference room heard the unusual things outside, and the smart ones even realized that something was wrong when Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two sat down early. But at this moment, no one dared to speak first.

[It’s a pity that Danzo is no longer here! ]

The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who seemed calm and composed, was actually not calm at all.

At this time, the ones who were blocking the door outside and fighting Tsunade should have been Shimura Danzo and his Root. Sarutobi Hiruzen could at most send a few thousand Anbu to provide support. By then, regardless of success or failure, Sarutobi Hiruzen behind would be able to advance or retreat in an emergency.

But now, Sarutobi Hiruzen can only let his son take over.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was helpless.

He was very clear that his son was not as good as Shimura Danzo. If he really had the qualifications and abilities of Shimura Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen would not have made him a shameful ANBU, but would have made him the successor to Hokage.

The situation outside the meeting room was becoming increasingly tense.

But Sarutobi Shinnosuke knew that he could not retreat.

He knew very well that as long as he could hold off Tsunade and the others for a while and kill their arrogance, he would be successful.

In fact, Ye Cang's move gave him a good reason to attack.

However, he did not have to wait long before one of his men came to him anxiously and whispered in his ear a piece of news that shocked him greatly.

"Minister, about 20,000 fully-armed ninjas from the Senju clan, about 5,000 from the Uchiha clan, and about 8,000 from the Hyuga clan are advancing at full speed towards the Hokage building!"

The subordinate's voice was trembling.

There is nothing wrong with my subordinates' intelligence.

The Senju clan actually does not have 20,000 ninjas. Konoha can only gather more than a thousand people. The rest are members of the Bai Ze Di Ting organization who were secretly summoned to the Senju clan's territory by Tsunade using summoning techniques and other means.

The Uchiha clan had suffered heavy losses before, and for those who stayed behind to guard the house, five thousand was already the limit they could gather.

However, the morale of the Uchiha clan was extremely high. When they heard that Uchiha Mikoto was going to lead them to besiege the Hokage Building and launch a coup, they were all like they had married a new bride.

The Hyuga clan was more cunning and kept observing with their Byakugan until they saw the Senju and Uchiha clans moving out in large numbers, and then they took action.

It is worth mentioning that they also found that a large number of ninjas from the Senju clan had no chakra in their bodies, but their powerful life energy and speed of climbing over walls and ridges as fast as that of Chunin made the Hyuga clan know that these people were not cannon fodder. With this information, the Hyuga clan decided not to go out, but once they went out, they assembled the most powerful forces with a thunderous momentum.

Ordinary ninjas certainly didn't dare to stop the three major families from taking action.

In addition, with the advantage that the Uchiha clan is in charge of the Konoha Guard and the Hyuga clan is in charge of reconnaissance, they can easily control key positions.

The Konoha Anbu Root, who were originally responsible for guarding the Uchiha clan, did not dare to attack first without orders, and could only stand guard beside the Uchiha clan's army. With the arrival of some reinforcements from the Senju and Hyuga clans, those Anbu members who were not Sarutobi Hiruzen's diehard followers immediately and cleverly protected everyone in front of them, and some even went straight back to their families to report the situation.

And with the ninja armies of the three major families joining together, naturally no one would dare to stop them at this time.

Even if there are occasional obstructions, the three major families will not be polite.

"what!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was shocked when he received the information.

He looked at Tsunade hatefully, then immediately turned around, opened the door and wanted to report to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

However, the moment he opened the door, Tsunade suddenly used Wood Release.

The moment the door of the conference room was opened, Sarutobi Shinnosuke and many Anbu ninjas were suddenly entangled by extremely resilient vines.

Wood escape!

The Sarutobi Hiruzen trio who were facing the gate and the other ninja clan leaders who turned around after hearing the sound were all stunned.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly.

"Tsunade, very good!"

For the first time, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt like gritting his teeth.

"Lord Hokage!"

Tsunade smiled, and a group of people surrounded Dong Huang and walked into the venue.

The position centered on Dong Huang made everyone confused about the situation.

The trapped Sarutobi Shinnosuke actually released the seal with one hand, performed the substitution technique to get rid of the restraints, and teleported to Sarutobi Hiruzen's side.

"Hokage-sama, about 20,000 fully-armed ninjas from the Senju clan, about 6,000 from the Uchiha clan, and about 8,000 from the Hyuga clan are marching towards the Hokage building at a very fast speed!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke conveyed the information sent by his subordinates to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Tsunade!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was extremely angry this time.

This is no longer a palace coup, but a naked armed coup.

Mitomon En and Utane Koharu, who heard the news vaguely, could no longer sit still.

"Hiruzen!"

The two of them actually entered into combat mode.

The only solution now is to take advantage of the large number of Hokage ninjas in the Hokage Building and capture Tsunade and others first, so that we will have the capital for negotiation.

However, as soon as the two stood up, they fell down and fainted.

Uchiha Mikoto and Uchiha Itachi simultaneously displayed their Mangekyō Sharingan and fired two Moon Blades, instantly killing the two old and ugly Hokage assistants.

At this point, with the addition of combat experience, these two people can actually exert a strength above quasi-shadow, but their physical fitness is ultimately not as good as that of Kakashi Hatake when he first fought against Uchiha Itachi in the plot. And the Moon Drain used by Uchiha Itachi when fighting against Kakashi Hatake was most likely a way to let Kakashi Hatake leak information on purpose. These two old guys are not so lucky.

"Tsunade!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked and angry.

He never imagined that Tsunade could use Wood Release, and that the Uchiha clan actually had two pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan.

What's even more terrifying is that Tsunade actually reached an agreement with the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan was actually willing to be Tsunade's pawns!

Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his hand tightly, then slowly loosened it.

At this moment, he had a fierce ideological struggle.

He couldn't help but cast his gaze on the patriarchs of the Ino, Shika and Chou clans, including Nara Shikaku.

These three families have always been vassal families of the Sarutobi clan.

But the patriarchs of the three tribes did not dare to stand up.

Firstly, Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation is really well-known, secondly, the Mangekyō Sharingan technique that instantly killed two Hokage assistants is really too terrifying, and thirdly, Tsunade actually awakened Wood Release!!!
What's more, they have the support of the Hyuga clan!

In this situation, even if there is a civil war, I am afraid that few families will take the side of Sarutobi Hiruzen. On the contrary, if it is to prevent Konoha from being destroyed and for everyone to be able to suck blood from the big tree of Konoha, they will attack the Sarutobi clan together.

Akimichi Choza and Yamanaka Inoichi both looked at the backbone Nara Shikaku secretly.

Nara Shikaku shook his head imperceptibly at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

This shake of the head made Sarutobi Hiruzen realize that the game was over.

"Tsunade, there will be a Jonin meeting tomorrow, and I will pass the position of Hokage to you!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

Tsunade, however, just looked at this ninja who seemed to have aged ten years in an instant with some complexity.

If he had died on the battlefield or in the Nine-Tailed Fox Rebellion, he would still be considered a hero. It's a pity... power corrupts the soul.

You can't say that he doesn't love Konoha, but for the sake of his family and power, he has done too many things that have harmed Konoha. Sarutobi Hiruzen has definitely played a great role in Konoha's fall to this point.

Tsunade couldn't help but look at Dong Huang.

Dong Huang, who had been silent from the beginning, finally spoke: "I will appoint who will be the Hokage, and I will grant the power to him!"

"What did you say!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help it.

Dong Huang is digging up the roots of the Ninja Clan.

"Only those who are recognized by everyone can become Hokage. You are so brave."

Sarutobi Hiruzen accused angrily.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio, several other clan leaders, and even Hyuga Hizashi couldn't help but look at Dong Huang and Tsunade.

Dong Huang was too lazy to speak.

Tsunade, however, looked as if it was a matter of course, and even Uchiha Mikoto and Uchiha Itachi, the mother and son with the Mangekyō Sharingan, looked as if it was a matter of course.

Hinata Hizashi wisely shut up.

He had not known before that Tsunade knew Wood Release and that the Uchiha clan had a second pair of Sharingan. Now he could only keep a low profile and hold on to their support.

The other clan leaders didn't dare to say a word.

During this time when everyone was having a friendly conversation, the first batch of the three-tribe coalition forces had already arrived outside the Hokage Building.

"The Senju clan actually still has 20,000 ninjas? This is your Majesty's credit, right? Your Majesty is truly a hidden talent! The Uchiha clan actually has two pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan. Can you control them, Tsunade?"

Even though Sarutobi Hiruzen was trying to sow discord at this moment, he was also expressing his concerns.

He knew that his abdication was inevitable, so he began to worry about the future of Konoha.

He couldn't figure out where Dong Huang came from, and he couldn't understand how Dong Huang could have such strong power right under his nose, which made him feel deeply frightened.

What frightened him even more was the naturally evil Uchiha.

After careful calculation, in the past five or six years, the Uchiha clan has produced five pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan! Fortunately, the brain circuits of the Uchiha clan are all problematic, otherwise if these people could unite, Konoha would have belonged to the Uchiha long ago!
But now, it's too late to think about these things.

"Don't worry about it!"

Tsunade has regained her former high-spirited self, because from today on she is the new Hokage.

"Tsunade, you're going to regret this!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was like a burden on his life, couldn't help but say.

"Sarutobi, I am the Hokage!"

Tsunade imitated the way Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke before and retorted to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nearly fell.

"Humph!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around and was about to leave, but he felt dazed.

Uchiha Mikoto and Uchiha Itachi's double Moon Blasphemy set was successfully performed.

In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been on guard against the illusions of the Uchiha clan before, and didn't dare to look them in the eye, but when he was angry just now, he couldn't help but raise his head, and was glared at by Uchiha Mikoto and her son...
