The two of them were very worried.

"Brother, the daimyo has gone there in person, the Uchiha clan is afraid..."

Hinata Hizashi showed a worried look on his face.

With the support of the daimyo, the Uchiha clan is afraid that the Hyuga clan will soon be left behind!

How can the two of them, who have been determined to carry forward the Hyuga clan since childhood, accept this?

Hyuga Hiashi gritted his teeth and whispered:

"It's not just the Uchiha clan that can get the support of the daimyo! If they can do it, our Hyuga clan can do it too!"

"But... how can we do it?"

"I heard that His Highness Ye Ning seems to have not married yet..."

Hearing this, Hyuga Hiashi was shocked:

"Brother, you are not planning to..."

Before he finished speaking, Hyuga Hiashi glared at Hyuga Hiashi and interrupted what he wanted to say:

"What are you thinking! Even a fool can see that His Highness Ye Ning and Lady Tsunade have a special relationship. If I dare to do this, am I not courting death?"

Hyuga Hiashi was confused.

Since he was not planning to marry His Highness Ye Ning, what did his brother mean by mentioning that His Highness Ye Ning had not married yet?

"You just don't think enough."

Hinata Hiashi had a plan in mind, and the whole person was much calmer. Instead, he patiently taught his younger brother:

"His Highness Ye Ning and Lady Tsunade have a special relationship, and His Highness Ye Ning has not married yet, what does it mean?"

"Does it mean...His Highness Ye Ning will marry Lady Tsunade?"

Hinata Hiashi hesitated for a moment and looked at his brother uncertainly.

"That's right! So, we don't need to please His Highness Ye Ning directly, just please Lady Tsunade."

Hinata Hiashi still didn't quite understand.

Please Tsunade... and how to please her?

I heard that Lady Tsunade is addicted to gambling and drinking. Could it be that the Hyuga clan should deliberately lose some money to Lady Tsunade and give her some good wine?

Isn't this too cheap?

Seeing that Hyuga Hiashi still didn't understand, Hyuga Hiashi sighed a little, not understanding why his brother, who was always smart, was so slow today:

"Who do you think the fourth generation will be?"

"Is it...Tsunade-sama? So, brother, are you going to support Tsunade-sama to become Hokage?"

"Humph, not only should we support Tsunade-sama to become Hokage, but we should also be the first family to support, or even the first to mention this matter! Even if other families react and support Tsunade-sama together, His Highness Ye Ning will only remember that my Hyuga clan is the first!"

Looking at Uchiha Fugaku, who greeted the daimyo with a flattering face, Hyuga Hiashi chuckled and strode into the clan land.

Hokage Building, Hokage Office.

Taking off the Hokage robe, Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing a combat uniform, quietly stared at the sunlight outside the window.

Today is the succession ceremony of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan.

As the Third Hokage, he naturally received an invitation.

But he was not going to go.

Recently, the direction of Konoha has completely changed.

The major families seem to have tacitly accepted that he, the Third Hokage, has become a thing of the past.

He has completely lost his power.

Even if he can lead Konoha to a quick victory over the enemy in the war against the Hidden Mist Village, it is difficult to recover the lost power.

The Third Hokage knew that he, the Third Hokage, might have really reached the end of his career.

The door of the Hokage's office was pushed open from the outside, and Utane Koharu and Mitomon En walked in. They did not speak to disturb the Third Hokage, but their faces were full of worry.

They were not worried about whether he would resign as Hokage, after all, this matter had become a foregone conclusion, but they were worried about whether he could withstand this gap.

A few days ago, he was still the Third Hokage who controlled the entire Konoha.

But in just a few days, he became a completely powerless lonely man.

There was a long silence in the room.

It was Utane Koharu who broke the silence first:

"Sarutobi, are you okay?"

Looking at the empty streets due to the Uchiha clan's grand event, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled carefreely:

"It's nothing good or bad. I believe that Tsunade can be a good fourth generation and will lead Konoha to better and better."

"Sarutobi!"

Utane Koharu shouted in surprise, as if she didn't expect Sarutobi Hiruzen to say that.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen just shook his head gently:

"Instead of being forced to leave,

I think I should take the initiative to propose the abdication as I have to abdicate the position of Hokage. It just so happens that the Daimyo is also in Konoha. If the candidate for the fourth generation is decided as soon as possible, I can go to the battlefield with peace of mind. "

"......"

"Since you are not going to use a victory to stabilize the position of Hokage, why do you still want to go to the battlefield? Sarutobi, Orochimaru and others are enough on the front line."

"Koharu, Menen, do you know?"

"Know...what?"

"You, Danzo, and we are all wrong." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, with some annoyance on his face: "Do you remember our original ideals? We once swore together to make Konoha the strongest in the ninja world."

"We did it, Sarutobi. We won the Second Shinobi World War."

"We won, but we have also changed."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"The matter of Sakumo...we did something wrong. Now that I think about it, I was really blinded by power. If I let the rumors continue to spread, Sakumo would probably be devastated, right? "

As the shadow of a village, he allowed Danzo to suppress the hero on the battlefield.

Although he didn't do it, he has to take a lot of responsibility for it.

They almost destroyed a powerful ninja, and almost destroyed the big tree that could protect Konoha and the growth of new leaves.

Utatane Koharu and Mito Kado En were stunned and looked at each other.

Sarutobi...

Sarutobi Hiruzen ignored the reactions of the two and said to himself:

"Danzo has changed, but I haven't noticed it yet, or I have changed too. "

"But fortunately, I woke up in time and didn't make any more mistakes. As for the war against the Hidden Mist Village... let me go. As the third generation of Konoha, I don't want to resign in such an embarrassing way. ”

“In my last term as the Sandaime, I must do something spectacular, bear the name of Hokage, and bring a hearty victory to Konoha.”

“My bones have not moved for a long time, and they are almost rusty. Just think of this as my last dance before retirement. When I return from the victory, I will step down as Hokage and recommend Tsunade to become the Fourth Hokage.”

“Under Tsunade’s leadership, and with the full support of the Daimyo, I think Konoha will usher in a brand new era, right?”

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen had made up his mind, even if Utatane Koharu and Mito Kado En had ten thousand words to say in their hearts, in the end they could only turn them into the two words “take care”.
