Escape From Konoha

Hokage Building, conference room.

A group of people sat down around a round conference table, and everyone's expression was more or less serious.

Three generations of Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruza.

Koharu and Mitomonyan, the advisors' sleep-overs.

Root Minister Shimura Danzo.

In addition to these four, there are Hyuga Hinata, the patriarch of the Hyuga Clan, Nara Shikahisa, the patriarch of the Nara Clan, and other ninja leaders who can participate in decision-making. Even among the very few jonin, they are all elites with real power in Konoha.

"Let's talk about your own opinions, how should we deal with this matter..."

The first to speak was the third generation of Hokage Sun Zhan. He was holding a piece of simple talisman paper, and a warm power was continuously transmitted from the talisman paper. This kind of chakra that makes people feel warm is Yang with healing ability. Attribute Chakra.

It's just that because the talisman paper is too rough, the chakra of the yang attribute is flowing out bit by bit, and it cannot be preserved for a long time.

But even so, it couldn't resist the light in the depths of everyone's eyes.

Because everyone here knows that once this seemingly crude talisman is thrown into the ninja world's commercial market, it can cause an uproar, and Konoha's power will become more stable.

Even the strategic level can be further improved, greatly reducing the sacrifice rate of Konoha Ninja.

At the same time, for each ninja, it is also an opportunity to make huge profits.

This kind of opportunity, any political group represented by the ninja, is not willing to miss it.

This is why Hirizhan didn't want to hide it after Kakashi reported the medical talisman.

Because I can't hide it.

With the power and resources in his hands, it is impossible to monopolize the medical talisman.

And if this kind of thing is concealed, it will only make the relationship between many ninjas and Hokage start to be divorced, making the political environment inside Konoha even worse.

Rather than doing some thankless things, Hirazan hopes that through this matter, he can win more power and pave the way for the next five generations of Hokage.

"This matter is of great importance. For this little girl named Haruno Sakura, she should be protected by special personnel, and all channels that may leak information should be blocked at the same time."

The bed-turning Xiaochun of the advisory group speaks out his suggestion.

"So, who will be mainly responsible for this matter?"

Sun Zhan asked.

Turning to bed Xiaochun did not respond.

Although she really wanted to say that this matter could be handled by the advisory group as a neutral representative, but in this way, it would be too ugly to eat.

What's more, so many ninja forces are also eyeing, just how to distribute the benefits is enough to give them a headache.

"I have a different opinion on this matter."

A voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone's gazes vaguely swept towards the position of the Hyuga Clan, and the person who spoke was Hyuga Hyuzu, the patriarch of the Hyuga Clan.

Not to mention the strength of the elite ninja, the power of the blood-successful ninja clan is more deterrent than the pure secret technique ninja clan in all aspects.

Ri Zhan didn't respond, but his eyes were already signaling Ri Zu to continue talking.

Rizu was not polite, and under the gaze of everyone, he said in a calm tone: "We have already seen the medical talisman. Although the value has not been determined yet, it will not be disappointing after it is made into a finished product. Then , the only question is...does this little girl named Haruno Sakura have the ability to perfect this medical talisman?"

His words also resonated with Shikahisa Nara, he took a deep breath and said: "Yes, I agree with the patriarch Nitsuzu's point of view, we are still not sure whether Haruno Sakura has the ability to further improve the medical talisman. We have already seen the current medical talisman, which is rough and simple, and has no way to pass the market test, let alone make a profit. On the contrary, we have to inject research funds for this, and mobilize a large number of medical ninjas and people who are good at sealing ninja."

In fact, Lu Jiu also had his own considerations about this matter.

He said that just to divert the attention of the others.

Because the specific benefits of the medical talisman have not yet been determined, it would be too nonsense to divide it here.

Although Lu Jiu was not a businessman, his family is also rich in medicinal materials, and he also knows some business concepts.

The prospect of the medical talisman is indeed broad, but it is only a prospect after all.

As long as it has not been confirmed as a fact, the only way to invest in the early stage is to wait for time to test.

Just like the so-called genius, an immature genius is just a genius, and a grown-up genius is a truly powerful person who is awe-inspiring.

"The problem of capital injection, there should be some reserve funds for this year."

Mitomon said.

"It was deliberately stored for emergency, and it must not be used unless it is in an emergency."

Hirushi rejected this suggestion.

Although the Daming Mansion has given Konoha a lot of support over the past few years, there is still an upper limit for development funds.

As long as the threat of the ghost country is not lifted, the general direction of Konoha will still focus on the development of military power, instead of shifting the development center and devoting energy to the medical industry.

Because even if it is Sun Zhan, it is not sure how long it will take for the medical talisman to appear.

Is it one year, or three years, or ten years.

The formation of a technology and the affirmation of the market are far from being resolved in a few words.

Time, talent, capital, equipment, all require a lot of investment.

The current Konoha lacks not only military strength, but also technical talents.

In addition, the industrial reserves have to keep up, so the establishment of a special research project for medical talismans will once again hollow out Konoha's heritage.

Sun Zhan needs to weigh the pros and cons.

Most importantly, because Haruno Sakura is Kakashi's student, and Kakashi's report to him is very detailed, the medical talisman is just a product of Haruno Sakura's accidental invention. Whether Haruno Sakura can continue to further improve the defects of the medical talisman and make it a finished product is full of uncertainties, as Nizuzu and Shikahisa said.

In order to pay attention to the enhancement of military power, Konoha has already been short of development funds. To invest Konoha's capital in a twelve-year-old girl, success is good, and if it fails... then it's not a joke. Konoha's development is likely to be temporarily stalled for this.

The current international situation is at a critical moment when every second is being raced against. Every stoppage may cause a huge gap in national strength, putting Konoha in a disadvantageous position.

Even if you want to give it a go on Haruno Sakura, you need to carefully consider how much to invest, and you can't put all your hopes on a twelve-year-old ninja.

"If this is the case, you can ask the patriarchs to allocate some funds from their own family business. This is also for the future of the village. Afterwards, according to the funds provided by each family, the annual resource allocation will be adjusted accordingly. .”

Turning to bed Xiaochun said.

But her eyes were focused on Hizuki.

As a ninja clan with the same long history as Uchiha and Senju, even if some ninjas of the family were split off, the strength of the family was only damaged, but the family heritage was still there.

Especially the family business controlled by the Hyuga clan, the wealth accumulated by the family, even the alliance of ninja clans such as Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi, may not be comparable in wealth.

This is the essential difference between the Blood Successor Limit Family and ordinary ninjas.

Although the Hyuga clan is relatively low-key among the Konohas, in many cases, there is no way to ignore the crucial vote of the Hyuga clan.

"Sorry, I can't trust the ability of a girl who is only twelve years old. If Master Tsunade is in charge of this project, I believe that my clan and I will agree, but we must pin such hopes on a little girl. It would be too risky."

Rizu didn't continue, but closed his eyes, the meaning was self-evident.

If you want to gamble on a twelve-year-old girl with a huge amount of money from the Hyuga clan, even the Hyuga clan will not agree with it.

"But she was the first to make the medical talisman. Her idea is very important. We cannot deny this. Besides, we can set up another special project team to carry out both sides at the same time."

Turning to bed Xiaochun continued.

"Then divide into two project teams, and the Hyuga Clan's funds can only be allocated to the second dedicated project team. In short, each of the Hyuga Clan's funds is hard-won, and now the village is in short supply of supplies in all aspects. It’s better to develop in a safe way.”

Seeking stability in everything is in line with the Hyuga clan's policy-making strategy.

The Hyuga Clan is betting that Haruno Sakura's production of the medical talisman is just a flash of inspiration, and it is impossible to achieve anything afterwards.

Because things like product research are full of uncertainties.

Although Haruno Sakura's uncertainty may lead to the release of the medical talisman earlier, it is more likely that it will disappear afterward.

The risks involved are too great, and the international environment is extremely tense today. Not only the village, but even the Hyuga Clan who are attached to Ninja Village must take protective measures and use every sum of money wisely.

The patriarchs of each family also kept silent after listening to Nizuzu's views, and no one expressed their views.

They are also thinking about the gains and losses.

The creator of the product is hard to ignore anyway, because the idea of ​​​​genius is always different. Often a whimsical idea can solve the problems that have troubled others for a long time.

But whether Haruno Sakura has this potential, after listening to Nizuzu's words, they are not sure now.

Because the Hyuga Clan is so cautious, the weaker family should naturally be more cautious and not bet at will.

It is true that befriending a genius may benefit the family, but if this 'genius' is mixed with a lot of water, it may also cause the family to suffer huge losses.

"In this case, continue to pay attention to that ninja called Haruno Sakura for a while, and then start to think about how to arrange her. See if her ability is worth our investment." Mitomonyan said, then turned to look at Hizhan, and asked : "In this case, there will be no problem for the time being, right?"

Turning to bed Xiaochun seemed to want to say something more, but Mitomonyan shook his head slightly at her.

The advisory group is a member of the high-level, but compared to Hokage and Genbu, the real power in their hands is not enough to issue orders to the ninja.

Even if it is the smallest ninja, if the advisory group wants to instruct them to act, they need to think twice.

In the past, I went to the Hyuga Clan to collect information about Baiyan, and they were all under the name of the Third Hokage, so they were able to run amok among the Hyuga Clan.

Otherwise, just relying on the power of the Hyuga clan, even if it is an advisory group, the clan might not be able to heed any so-called requests for instructions.

Over the past few years, the relationship between the Advisory Group and Hokage has become relatively indifferent. Naturally, the attitude of the Hyuga Clan towards the Advisory Group is not as important as before.

The weakness of the Hyuga clan in the village is only relative.

When the critical moment came, no one dared to underestimate the heritage of this ancient family.

What's more, because there is another Hyuga clan in the kingdom of ghosts, Konoha's Hyuga clan should be protected and appeased, not persecuted.

"Then first mobilize some medical ninjas and ninjas who are proficient in sealing techniques, and each ninja will inject funds to set up a special research project team. For Haruno Sakura... I will let Kakashi see the effect. As for Haruno Sakura's personal research For the time being, the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans will be in charge of financial aid."

Hizuki paused and made a decision.

◎

"What is the purpose of Hokage-sama's arrangement?"

In the courtyard of the Nara clan, Choza Akimichi and Kaiichi Yamanaka were sitting in a quiet room, facing Shikahisa Nara. It seemed that both of them were a little confused about the meeting just now.

"What else can we do? To recruit the geniuses of the new generation to serve the next generation of Hokage. By the way, use the power of our three clans to provide protection for them and prevent some people from jumping over the wall. After all, investing in personal research does not require the three of us to work together. "

Nara Shikahisa shook the teacup in his hand boredly, showing a helpless smile.

"Shikaku, you mean Tsunade-sama..."

Haiyi's expression changed.

"Although the medical talisman is not even a semi-finished product, the visible benefits make it difficult for even a person like me to maintain absolute composure. Now I am a real poor ghost."

Lu Jiu said half-jokingly.

Haiyi and Ding Zuo knew that Lu Jiu was joking.

Now Lu Jiu is really short of money. In order to develop Konoha, Lu Jiu has worked hard and put in a lot of hard work these years.

Many areas of Konoha need capital injection for development.

Once the medical talisman market is formed, in the long run, the advantages will definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

However, Konoha's current predicament is not suitable for saving military expenses with great fanfare and injecting large sums of money into the medical field.

To be precise, it is not Lu Jiu who is short of money, but Muye Village.

"Master Hokage is so convinced that the little girl named Haruno Sakura will succeed?"

Ding Zuo was a little suspicious.

"It's not a firm belief, it's just a test. Anyway, the three of us have collected some research funds, and it's not a serious injury. And if the other party really relies on his own strength to provide a more complete idea for the completion of the medical talisman, That is not only our three families, but also an opportunity for Konoha to reborn. Konoha... No, the national strength of the Fire Kingdom is no longer what it used to be. The future needs young people to lead. So why not believe in young people once? "

For today's third-generation Hokage, Lu Jiu is quite satisfied. Although in terms of personality, he is still somewhat indecisive, but at least he is not relying too much on the power of the roots and the advisory group as before, and has begun to pay attention to the cultivation of the new generation and build a bridge of trust with the new generation.

But Lu Jiu also knew that the idea of ​​the third Hokage awakening was too late.

Too many opportunities were wasted in the past, and Konoha also consumed a lot of internal strength due to various interests.

After that, the Uchiha clan disappeared, which caused Konoha a lot of losses, and its deterrent effect on the outside world became worse every year.

It is even rumored in the world that the Uchiha clan of the ghost country is the orthodox Uchiha. Konoha's Uchiha is just a fake family.

"Is that so? I thought it was the Hyuga Clan who played a balancing role."

Haiyi was surprised.

"The balance of the Hyuga Clan is indeed very important, but it is the Elder Danzo who did not say a word at the meeting that really made Hokage-sama calm down. Otherwise, no matter how good the talent is, as long as the roots disagree It’s hard to be kind. After all, it’s easy to hide from open spears, but it’s hard to guard against hidden arrows.”

Lu Jiu drank his tea and said meaningfully.

Both Hai Yi and Ding Zuo had solemn expressions.

roots!

At this time, the two of them noticed that in the meeting just now, Shimura Danzo, who was the leader of the root, did not say a word, and his sense of existence was almost zero.

If Lu Jiu hadn't mentioned it at this time, they would have even ignored the existence of this person.

"You mean, the roots will take action next?"

Haiyi asked.

"Probably not. Elder Danzang also focused on balance. Otherwise, at the meeting just now, he wouldn't have sat there silent. Silence is to support Hokage-sama's proposal. At least in terms of selection, The root is not unscrupulous. Is it worthy of the darkness of ninja?"

Lu Jiu smiled wryly.

Danzo is an unprincipled ninja.

This point is clear to many Konoha Jominin who know the existence of roots.

But in many cases, Danzo's behavior is full of principles.

For example, a ninja who enters the root must meet certain conditions.

Otherwise, no matter how good a ninja is, the root will not open the door for him.

And this kind of Danzo makes Lu Jiu feel even more terrifying.

Because it is impossible for Danzo to show any clues according to this principle of handling things, and the power in Konoha is also more entrenched.

Compared with the advisory group whose positions are always vacillating, Danzo's approach is undoubtedly much more mature and smart.

Roots are like a double-edged sword.

External in times of war, internal in times of peace.

"No matter what, the ultimate decision-maker in the village is Hokage-sama."

Haiyi and Ding Zuo comforted Lu Jiu like this.

Lu Jiu nodded, but the worry in his eyes did not dissipate.

That's right, Hokage can only be the final decision-maker in the village.

But that was what he was afraid of.

— Danzo wants to seek the position of Hokage.

And Danzo and the third Hokage are ninjas of the same age. At the age of the other party, it is too late to wait for the fifth Hokage to abdicate and fight for the position of the sixth Hokage.

Then, Danzo can only use some extraordinary means if he wants to be the top Hokage.

For example... a coup d'état!

In the eyes of Lu Jiu, the armed forces possessed by Roots have always been a mystery.

When the dark system is infiltrated by foreign spies, only the root causes those foreign spies to return without success.

Such a radical group coveting the position of Hokage and possessing a powerful armed force, just thinking about it makes Lu Jiu shudder.

The competition for the position of the fifth generation of Hokage may be the beginning of Konoha's next stage of internal friction.

Lu Jiu must guard against this kind of thing, prepare for the worst, and not give the root any opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Okay, you two go back first. I will discuss the arrangement with Kakashi on Haruno Sakura's side. There is no need to let the kid in the family get in touch deliberately. Young people's affairs, just let nature take its course. It's too deliberate Otherwise, it will arouse the other party’s resentment.”

Compared with Haruno Sakura, Shikajiu is more worried about the root problem.

At least the current Haruno Sakura is only in its infancy, whether it has higher cultivation value is still uncertain, and it will take some time to observe.

But the threat to the roots is obvious.

◎

"Thank you, Kakashi. You did a great job."

In the dark woods, the old man showed a slightly gloomy face, which looked quite scary in the dark environment.

It is Danzo.

Behind him, followed by Shan Zhongfeng and You Nv Qugen, two Genbu Jonin guards.

There are also a large number of root ninjas scattered around, hiding in the dark.

Kakashi noticed those Genbu ninjas who were secretly staring at him, and he didn't care. He just replied as usual: "It's nothing, Danzo-sama, I'm just doing what I should do."

Danzo nodded slightly, and a little relief appeared on his slightly gloomy face.

"The value of Haruno Sakura is up to you to judge. What she needs, try to satisfy her as much as possible. If there are not enough research materials and funds, some will be allocated here at the root."

As a long-term collaborator with Orochimaru, Danzo knows the importance of talent.

Since Haruno Sakura can inadvertently develop something like a medical talisman, it means that the other party's talent is no longer limited to the level of ordinary ninjas.

Calling it a genius may be too much in the current situation, but if the other party continues to study on the medical talisman, maybe it can really provide a different idea from others, and can speed up the completion of the medical talisman. Even if it is a little faster, the investment in the roots is meaningful.

"Yes~www.readwn.com~ As for the safety aspect, let Anbu take over temporarily, it is inconvenient for the old man to intervene. In addition, I have ordered Feng to raise your position level in the root to A-level. I hope you don't Disappointed old man."

Danzo turned and left without waiting for Kakashi's response.

Yamanakakaze and Yume Takegen nodded slightly to Kakashi, which can be regarded as agreeing with the other party's position in the root, and their attitudes seemed friendly.

"Then, let's talk again when we have time, Kakashi. I hope you can be worthy of Danzo-sama's trust. When Danzo-sama succeeds Hokage in the future, you will still be the supreme commander of Anbu."

After finishing speaking, Shanzhongfeng and Younv Togen followed Danzo and left.

Kakashi stood still, watching Danzo and the others leave.

Slowly, the soil around his feet bulges slightly, and a mud head pops out with dim eyes.
