The three generations of Hokage died in battle.

"The Third Hokage was killed?"

Looking at the information sent back from the front line, Ye Ning's eyes showed a little disbelief.

Ye Ning had never thought that Sarutobi Hiruzen would die on the battlefield.

This was completely inconsistent with his previous style of doing things, but Sarutobi Hiruzen made such a decision before he died.

Rubbing the intelligence scroll in his hand, Ye Ning's eyes were thoughtful.

Of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of this generation, only Xiguashan Pufferfish and Biwa Juzo were left...

Unexpectedly, the Third Hokage dealt such a heavy blow to Kirigakure before he died.

Over a hundred elites of Kirigakure plus five members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen...

Although a hundred elites may not seem impressive to a ninja army with thousands of soldiers, such a loss is enough to determine the true outcome of a war.

What's more, Kirigakure's morale has been severely damaged.

Moreover, this generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen...

Ye Ning smacked her lips and suddenly felt a little sorry for these guys.

As the absolute elite ninjas of Kirigakure, the ace team that emerged from the blood mist policy, the ending was so bleak.

If I remember correctly, in the Battle of Kikyoyama in the original book, these guys were ordered to occupy a fortress and surrounded Might Guy's team. As a result, they encountered Might Guy with the Eight Gates open——

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were kicked into the Three Lucky Treasures.

And now, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen did not meet Might Guy, but faced the Third Hokage, and the ending was not much different.

The remaining two people just formed a pair of Hengha duo or Haier brothers.

The two elders, Utane Koharu and Mitomon En, who were invited by Ye Ning, frowned and asked for Ye Ning's opinion:

"What do you think, Your Highness Ye Ning, should we do now?"

In Konoha today, the third generation went to the front and died on the battlefield, and Danzo was stripped of his position and imprisoned. Only the two elders can make a decision.

Although he already had a general idea in his mind, Utane Koharu still asked for Ye Ning's opinion first.

Ye Ning shrugged:

"You ask me about Konoha's battlefield decision? Forget it, just make your own decision."

Hearing this, Utatane Koharu and Mito Kado En looked at each other, and Mito Kado En spoke:

"Danzo defected from Konoha some time ago and is now missing. Sarutobi died in the ruins of the Whirlpool Country. The most urgent task is to find Tsunade and succeed her as the Fourth Hokage to stabilize the situation and the people's hearts."

"As for the subsequent battlefield arrangements... I think we should wait until Tsunade comes back before making arrangements."

Glancing at Ye Ning's expression, Mito Kado En was very wise and did not interfere.

Everyone knows that Tsunade is the Hokage supported by the Daimyo himself. If he comes out to arrange this and that at this time, isn't it going to make things difficult for himself?

What's more, the two elders can't bear such a responsibility in this situation.

Ye Ning had no reason to refuse Mizutomon Yan's proposal.

He was eager for Tsunade to come back soon, so how could he refuse?

However, in addition to arranging for Tsunade to come back to succeed the throne of Hokage, there was another thing to do.

"I will explain to my father and put pressure on the daimyo of the Land of Water to ask for the remains of the Third Hokage."

When these words came out, Utatane Koharu and Mizutomon Yan were stunned.

They had never thought that Ye Ning would take the initiative to bring up this matter.

They were still worrying about how to talk to Ye Ning!

In fact, Ye Ning did not hate the Third Hokage that much.

What he hated was just the Third Hokage who was full of greed for the position of Hokage, reluctant to give up the power in his hands, increasingly eroded by power, and finally lost all his courage and had no heroic style.

Since the last time the Third Hokage took the initiative to propose to resign as the Third Hokage and went to the battlefield in person, Ye Ning gradually let go of his prejudice.

Moreover, the end of the Third Hokage is indeed worthy of his title of Ninja Hero.

According to common sense, the matter of hating the Third Hokage's body should be a matter for Konoha to consider, and there is no need for the name.

But considering the current situation of Konoha's three-front enemy, it is difficult to pay enough to exchange the Third Hokage from the hands of Kirigakure.

But if the Third Hokage's body is left in the hands of Kirigakure, it will definitely be a disadvantage for Konoha.

Not only will the morale of the frontline ninja army be hit, but even Tsunade, the newly succeeded Fourth Hokage, will also be hurt.

, will also be criticized.

Therefore, even for Tsunade, Ye Ning is also happy to do such a thing.

Ye Ning retracted his gaze, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said softly:

"You should implement the relevant matters of Tsunade's succession, and make sure it is watertight. The Hokage Rock, the Hokage God Robe, and the ceremony, all the necessary procedures must not be missing, and absolutely no carelessness is allowed. Remember to write a letter and report it to the Daimyo Mansion."

Ye Ning specifically reminded him.

It's just that he is afraid of an emergency, so everything will be kept simple.

He finally pushed Tsunade to the position of Hokage bit by bit, isn't it just to see her high-spirited look?

If the succession ceremony is really made like Kakashi's...

What a thing!

The Hokage Rock is half carved, and there is no time to make the God Robe, so I can only pick up the ones that others have worn...

It looks shabby.

No matter how long Tsunade can be the fourth generation, the cards that should be there are still necessary.

Koharu Utatane was slightly startled, but soon after she reacted, she patted her chest and promised:

"Don't worry, Your Highness Ye Ning, we will take care of the necessary ceremonies."

As early as when the Third Hokage took the initiative to resign as Hokage, the carving of the Hokage Rock and the divine robe were already in production.

Although such a thing happened suddenly, it was just a little expedited at most.

......

"The old man...died?"

Tsunade, who was at the front line, listened to Orochimaru's words and instantly showed a look of astonishment on her face.

At this moment, her mood was mixed.

Although she had always had some complaints and even some hatred towards the Third Hokage, when she really heard the news, her mood was inevitably a little complicated.

In any case, the Third Hokage had been her teacher.

She would always remember the teachings and care when she was young.

Orochimaru looked very calm, but he was also feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart. He was silent for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice:

"With his own strength, he destroyed nearly a hundred Kirigakure, killed five Ninja Swordsmen Seven, and turned the tide of the war. I think he must have been full of satisfaction when he died."

Orochimaru was surprisingly not sad, but thought that the Third Hokage died a worthy death.

He deserved the name of a ninja hero.

"The village will probably call you back to succeed the Hokage soon. Congratulations in advance, Tsunade."

Orochimaru's face soon showed that signature evil smile again, and he licked the corner of his mouth unconsciously.

Noticing the fatigue in Orochimaru's eyes, Tsunade was a little worried:

"Can you hold on by yourself?"

"The Sand Village will soon reach the border of the Land of Earth. The one who should be worried now is not me, but that old man Ohnoki. With the Sand Village involved, I think the battlefield of the Rock Village should be able to allocate some troops to support me."
