The ancestor of the ninja of Konoha actually came to assassinate the daimyo. I think there is no need to allocate this year's funds to you!" The daimyo snorted coldly and directly put pressure on the third generation. "No!" Koharu Utatane and Mitomon En, who were in charge of Konoha's finances, exclaimed in surprise, looking ugly. Konoha had just finished the Second Ninja World War and was in need of money. If the daimyo really didn't allocate funds, such a huge Konoha would be in crisis. Although Konoha never lacked commissioned tasks due to its reputation, the task reward was just a drop in the bucket compared to the entire huge Konoha. Once the funding from the daimyo is lost, Konoha's development will definitely stagnate, or even go backwards.

The Sand Village is a vivid example.

The daimyo of the Wind Country reduced the funding of the Sand Village again and again. The Sand Village had no choice but to take the elite route and reduce the number of ninjas. Even the shadow of the village had to go to the desert to pan for gold. The strength of the entire ninja village also jumped to the bottom of the five major ninja villages, even worse than the Mist Village that had experienced the blood mist and various coups.

The daimyo's words were equivalent to hitting the snake at its seven inches, directly grasping the lifeline.

Even Danzo's gloomy expression unconsciously eased a lot, and he explained very rarely:

"They are just two rebellious ninjas, there is no need to implicate the entire Konoha, right?"

"So, the Hokage Assistant acknowledges that the Third Hokage is negligent in his duty to manage his subordinates?"

The Daimyo smiled in a weird way, but his words were particularly sharp:

"Since he is not able to manage his subordinates, I think it would be better for the Third Hokage to find a successor as soon as possible. What do you think, Assistant?"

Ye Ning was dumbfounded.

Hiss...

The cheap dad's two sentences are quite good!

It's not that this kind of nitpicking is very clever, but the last question to Danzo is a heart-piercing statement.

Moreover, there seems to be a subtext in the cheap dad's words, which is like I am optimistic about you.

The means of provocation are quite clever, but it may not be effective for Danzo.

Danzo and the Third Generation were lifelong friends. Ye Ning did not think that Danzo would follow the words of the Daimyo and criticize the Third Generation.

As expected, Danzo's face darkened and he shook his head without hesitation.

The third Hokage was afraid that Danzo would say something disrespectful in a fit of anger, so he hurried ahead of Danzo and showed a kind smile:

"Your Excellency the Daimyo is right. This matter is indeed my fault. I will put these two rebels in Konoha Prison and never release them in this life."

"In addition, I will also increase the manpower to do my best to hunt down the ninjas who defected from Konoha. Things like this will never happen again, causing trouble to Your Excellency the Daimyo. What do you think?"

The Daimyo did not answer, but shook the feather fan in his hand, smiling and saying: "What? Are you going to continue discussing with me here? Don't you want me to sit down?"

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Daimyo, this is my negligence."

The third Hokage smiled and made a gesture of invitation, and at the same time, he used his eyes to signal the patriarchs of each family and those senior ninjas in important positions to leave.

......

The Hokage's office is bigger than what Ye Ning saw in the anime. In addition to a desk filled with various documents, there are two sofas placed horizontally by the window, and there are several pots of green plants in the room.

After several people sat down in the Hokage's office, Koharu Tatene couldn't hold back her temper and spoke first:

"Dear Daimyo, do you agree with what the Third Hokage proposed?"

"Of course I agree. I feel relieved that the rebel ninja is imprisoned in your own prison."

"Then what about the allocation..."

"Allocation? What allocation?" The Daimyo looked puzzled at first, and then nodded as if he suddenly realized something, "You mean the allocation for Konoha this year..."

The Daimyo smiled, but did not give a conclusion. Instead, he changed the subject:

"I am not here to ask for accountability in Konoha this time. I only have one son, named Ye Ning."

What does this mean?

Is he introducing his successor to himself and others?

But the daimyo is the same age as them, so he wouldn't introduce the heir to them so early, right?

The three generations were unsure of the daimyo's meaning for a moment, and they all looked at Ye Ning with hesitation.

"I

This son has always wanted to be a ninja since he was a child. He even went to the Fire Temple for two and a half years. I couldn't persuade him, so I had to bring this child to the Third Hokage. "

"We came here this time just to borrow the Sealed Book. What do you think, Third Hokage?"

The Sealed Book again!

The Third Hokage looked at each other and finally understood why the Daimyo, who had always allocated funds and never interfered with Konoha, suddenly attacked them.

But the Sealed Book, after all, records the existence of forbidden techniques. If it is so easy to borrow it from others, wouldn't it be nonsense?

Danzo's expression was stern, and he said coldly:

"Dai Ming, it's not that I'm saying something unpleasant. The ninjutsu recorded in the Sealed Book are all forbidden techniques created by the Second Hokage. The reason why they are called forbidden techniques is because they are extremely difficult to practice, and if you are not careful, you may lose your life. "

"So, we will not agree to your request. Please consider the safety of His Highness and take back this unrealistic idea. "

Although Danzo has tried his best to restrain his anger, his words are still merciless and he severely refutes the Daimyo's face.

The Daimyo was not annoyed, but just smiled and picked up the tea:

"In this case, then the issue of funding should be considered more. You also know that the war has just ended, and other places in the Land of Fire also need money. It's difficult for me, the Daimyo, to do it! "

Threat!

Naked threat!

But he just happened to grasp the lifeline of the Third Generation, or the entire Konoha.

Ye Ning was very satisfied watching the whole process, and at the same time he had a new impression of his cheap father.

It seems... not as useless as he imagined? He is not a foolish idiot who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun!

At least, the power of the Daimyo was used to the fullest by him.

Sure enough, the setting of the Hokage is still unreasonable!

An ordinary person who is powerless can actually be above the Kage of a village, and even the Kage of a village has no effective means of resistance.

With a sentence of no money, the lifeline is directly strangled.

If Ye Ning's current identity is the Hokage or the Hokage's assistant, then he will angrily curse the ugliness of this system.

But now, he is the beneficiary of this system.

He can only say that this identity is really good!
