The performance was not perfect.

From the performance point of view, Shokuhou Misaki's performance just now was not perfect.

Especially the continuous questioning of the leader of Kumogakure at the end was too aggressive, giving people a feeling of being very rash and rude.

But in fact, in the eyes of a psychologist like Shokuhou Misaki, this imperfect performance is the most perfect!

After all, Shokuhou Misaki's character at this moment is a ninja school student with a firm will of fire. Since she has a firm will of fire, Shokuhou Misaki should be angry about the question of the leader of Kumogakure. In addition, she is just a student, so Shokuhou Misaki should show the passion and impulse that she should have at this age.

If she is really calm and restrained at a young age, and speaks without leaking a drop of water, that would be the biggest abnormality.

Therefore, no one present felt unusual about Shokuhou Misaki's aggressive behavior. Although some people thought that Shokuhou Misaki's words in a diplomatic setting were a bit rude, considering her age, this was the most normal behavior.

And what Shokuhou Misaki said just now was also her counterattack against the Kumogakure conspiracy.

In the words just now, Shokuhou Misaki questioned the loyalty of the Kumogakure leader to his own ninja village by constantly asking questions. Although it sounds nothing now, when the Kumogakure leader dies in Konoha Village in the future and Kumogakure takes the opportunity to attack, Shokuhou Misaki's questioning of the Kumogakure leader today can become a powerful weapon in diplomatic occasions.

If Sarutobi Hiruzen is a qualified diplomat, he can completely prove that the Kumogakure leader is not loyal enough to his own ninja village through the communication between the Kumogakure leader and Shokuhou Misaki today. And a person who is not loyal enough, even if he dies in Konoha Village, his motives are questionable.

In short, Shokuhou Misaki's question to the leader of Kumogakure today will have a certain effect on Konoha's future diplomatic situation. At least Konoha will not be completely passive in diplomacy as in the original work.

Of course, if the Konoha high-level leaders headed by Sarutobi Hiruzen continue to make stupid mistakes in diplomacy, Shokuhou Misaki can't do anything.

In the final analysis, Shokuhou Misaki is now a somewhat famous ninja school student. She has so many cards in her hand, and the actions she can take are also very limited. Being able to express her will of fire in a conversation and lay the groundwork for future Konoha diplomacy is already the limit of what she can do.

As for the future diplomatic turmoil between Konoha and Kumogakure, and the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the Konoha high-level, even Hatake Kakashi at this time has no right to interrupt on these major issues. Her current status in Konoha is not even as good as the ninja dog raised by Hatake Kakashi, so how can she play a decisive role?

So after Sarutobi Hiruzen rescued the leader of Kumogakure, Shokuhou Misaki showed some nervousness and embarrassment appropriately, then apologized to everyone with a shy face, and went back to the kitchen to continue working.

Everyone's impression of Shokuhou Misaki was limited to this. They felt that although Shokuhou Misaki had poor physical fitness, at least her will of fire was firm enough, and she would definitely be a high-quality cannon fodder for Konoha in the future. Sarutobi Hiruzen's appreciation of Shokuhou Misaki at this time might allow Shokuhou Misaki to have a good teacher after graduation, such as an elite Chunin, but that's all.

In this way, after eating ramen, the leader of Kumogakure and a group of Konoha ninjas left Ichiraku Ramen.

After seeing everyone leave, Uncle Ichiraku was also relieved, and turned to give Shokuhou Misaki a few words. Tell her that Shokuhou Misaki's attitude was wrong today. How could she be so aggressive to the guests? Fortunately, there was Hokage to smooth things over today, otherwise it would be bad if things got out of hand.

Shokuhou Misaki knew that this was Uncle Ichiraku's good intention, so in the face of Uncle Ichiraku's teaching, she showed a look of being happy to learn. She kept nodding and bowing, saying that she was too impulsive today and would never dare to do it again in the future.

So today's work at Ichiraku Ramen Shop was over, and Shokuhou Misaki returned home. The next morning, Shokuhou Misaki got up early and rushed to the Ninja School. As soon as she entered the school classroom, her classmates swarmed in and asked her about the leader of Kumogakure. Noticing the puzzled expression on Shokuhou Misaki's face, Katsumura Yota said:

"Shokuhou classmate, you don't know yet? The leader of Kumogakure who talked to you yesterday is dead. I heard that he died in the clan land of the Uchiha clan and was killed by Uchiha Itachi."

As soon as he finished speaking, Namikaze Mai on the side said again:

"I heard that this guy was defeated by Uchiha Itachi on the battlefield, and he has been unwilling to accept it, so he was last night.

He went to cause trouble for Uchiha Itachi. But he was no match for Uchiha Itachi and was killed by him easily! "

Speaking of this, Namikaze Mai whispered:

"But according to the gossip my father got, Uchiha Itachi seemed to recognize the other party's identity, so he didn't kill him. The leader of Kumogakure seemed to choose to commit suicide after the sneak attack failed. Oh, it's really nonsense! The war is obviously over, why don't you go home and accompany your wife and children? Why do you have to seek death! "

……

As everyone was talking, Shokuhou Misaki knew the whole story.

It turned out that last night, the leader of Kumogakure also took action as in the original book. However, unlike the original book where the target was the Byakugan, this time the target of Kumogakure was the Sharingan. It was no longer the kidnapping of the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, Hinata Hyuga, but the genius of the Uchiha clan, Itachi Uchiha.

Itachi Uchiha's strength was not comparable to Hinata Hyuga. The leader of Kumogakure failed to launch a sneak attack, so he simply committed suicide on the spot and put the blame on Itachi Uchiha for his own death. The purpose was naturally to exert diplomatic pressure on Konoha and force Konoha to hand over the Sharingan. At the same time, Kumogakure also wanted to use this to intensify the contradictions in Konoha and weaken Konoha's strength.

In short, this move of Kumogakure was exquisite. In the end, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is killing two birds with one stone.

Just after the death of the leader of Kumogakure, the Kumogakure ninjas who stayed in Konoha Village immediately pointed out that Konoha lacked sincerity in peace talks and killed important diplomats of Kumogakure, making Konoha very passive in diplomacy. However, due to Shokuhou Misaki, Konoha also pointed out that there were problems with the leader of Kumogakure himself, and it was possible that he took extreme actions for personal reasons.

At the same time, Konoha also had huge problems because of Kumogakure's conspiracy. The first was the Uchiha clan, who were confusedly accused by Kumogakure of murdering Kumogakure diplomats and disrupting peace talks. The status of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village became more and more embarrassing, and the voices hostile to the Uchiha clan gradually became the mainstream of public opinion in the village.

And at this critical moment, as one of the three ninjas, the great But Orochimaru stood up. When the whole Konoha was hostile to the Uchiha clan, Orochimaru openly chose to stand on the side of the Uchiha clan, saying that the Uchiha clan was wronged in this diplomatic incident. All this is a conspiracy of Kumogakure, and everyone should not be provoked by the hostile ninja village.

Compared with the Uchiha clan, Orochimaru's prestige in Konoha is naturally incomparable. In addition, this matter is indeed a bit strange, so many ninjas began to stand on the side of Orochimaru and the Uchiha clan.

Most of these ninjas are hawks in Konoha, and they have long hated Kumogakure. They were originally dissatisfied with the peace talks between Konoha and Kumogakure, and now they just took the opportunity to attack. In contrast, another group of ninjas who longed for peace and feared war gradually gathered around the top leaders of Konoha.

So Konoha Internally, the hawk faction headed by Orochimaru and the dove faction headed by Konoha's high-ranking officials were soon divided. Fierce open and secret struggles broke out between the two sides in the village, and they almost fought several times.

Obviously, Orochimaru knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen would not appoint him as the fifth generation Hokage, so he directly chose to become the leader of Konoha's hawk faction, ready to use his own prestige to gather power, and with the strength of the Uchiha clan, force Sarutobi Hiruzen to give up the throne of Hokage.

As Konoha's internal contradictions became more and more intense, Kumogakure also saw the problem of Konoha. So in the new round of diplomatic negotiations, Konoha's high-ranking officials headed by the fourth generation Raikage proposed a condition that Konoha's dove faction was willing to accept, but Konoha's hawk faction absolutely could not accept.

That is, hand over Uchiha Itachi!

As long as Uchiha Itachi was handed over, or Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan was handed over, Kumogakure could continue to sign a ceasefire agreement with Konoha and end the outbreak of the war. In this regard, the dove faction headed by Konoha's high-ranking officials readily agreed. They thought that sacrificing a little Uchiha Itachi could bring about long-term peace, and that this deal was a big win.

Contrary to the opinions of the doves, the hawks of Konoha could not accept this at all.

Not to mention that Uchiha Itachi was the young patriarch of the Uchiha clan, a disciple of Orochimaru, and an important genius of Konoha. Such a person could not be sacrificed casually. Even on the issue of peace talks, the hawks had huge opinions.

Take this matter for example, it was originally done by Kumogakure. It was the leader of Kumogakure who assassinated Uchiha Itachi, and committed suicide after the failure. Neither the Uchiha clan nor Konoha made any mistakes. It was Kumogakure who deliberately provoked the incident and disrupted the peace talks, which led the two sides to the brink of war.

Obviously, Konoha was the party in the right, so why do we have to apologize to the party that made the mistake now?

Then

Or, even if we hand over Uchiha Itachi, can Kumogakure and Konoha really maintain peace?

Don't forget, it was Kumogakure that caused trouble before, not Konoha. It was Kumogakure, not Konoha, who wanted to restart the war. Facing the unreasonable provocation of Kumogakure, Konoha should fight for its rights. If it is too weak in diplomacy, it will make Kumogakure despise Konoha more and more, increasing the chance of war.

In short, facing the unreasonable demands of Kumogakure, the hawks with Orochimaru and the Uchiha clan's tailed beasts are the rational party. Especially combined with the previous communication between Shokuhou Misaki and the leader of Kumogakure, many people in Konoha knew that the leader of Kumogakure had bad intentions, and he deserved to die in Konoha.

So after Kumogakure proposed that Konoha hand over Uchiha Itachi, more and more ninjas in Konoha chose to stand on the side of the hawks. Although most ninjas subconsciously stood on the side of the doves because of the majesty of the Konoha high-level officials, they actually agreed with the remarks of the hawks in their hearts.

It can be said that if things continue to develop in this way, Orochimaru will soon be able to gather the popularity of Konoha, and then force Sarutobi Hiruzen to abdicate and become the fifth generation Hokage of Konoha. At that time, as long as he shows a tough attitude in the diplomatic negotiations with Kumogakure and forces Kumogakure to sign a peace agreement, Orochimaru's position as Hokage will be secure.

But, will things really go so smoothly?

Just when everyone thought that the conflict with Kumogakure would definitely break out and Orochimaru would take this opportunity to become the fifth generation Hokage, a huge scandal was exposed in Konoha, that is, Orochimaru's human experiment was exposed!

Of course, if it was just that, it would be fine. Human experiments are common in all major ninja villages. Orochimaru's human experiments are not a secret in the eyes of many ninjas in Konoha Village. What really triggered the public opinion frenzy was the things in Orochimaru's secret laboratory. After the search by the Anbu, Konoha actually found the horn of the Eight-Tails in Orochimaru's laboratory!

Orochimaru actually has the horn of the Kumogakure tailed beast. This incident broke out at the critical moment when Konoha and Kumogakure were on the verge of a war, and immediately caused a shock to the entire ninja world.

Under the manipulation of public opinion by those with ulterior motives, the attitude of the Konoha ninja towards Orochimaru gradually changed from the original recognition to suspicion. Many ninjas feel that the current conflict between Konoha and Kumogakure is likely just a transaction between Orochimaru and Kumogakure. Orochimaru has colluded with Kumogakure for a long time, otherwise where did the horn of the eight-tail in his laboratory come from?

And it's not just the Konoha ninjas, there have also been huge changes within Kumogakure.

You must know that the tailed beast is the top priority of a ninja village, and the theft of the horn of the eight-tail has always been a huge scandal within Kumogakure. Now that Konoha has found the horn of the eight-tail in Orochimaru's laboratory, combined with Orochimaru's recent actions, even an impulsive Fourth Raikage feels that there will be no one in his own ninja village colluding with Orochimaru, right?

With this idea, the Fourth Raikage immediately launched a strict investigation within Kumogakure. One after another, Kumogakure ninjas who claimed to have colluded with Orochimaru were easily dug out. At this moment, many ninjas in Konoha also took the initiative to stand up, claiming that they helped Orochimaru to collude with Kumogakure and betrayed the interests of Konoha, which was really a heinous crime.

In less than half a month, Orochimaru became one of the most conspirators in the ninja world.

The conflict between Kumogakure and Konoha was blamed on Orochimaru, and the death of the leader of Kumogakure at the hands of the Uchiha clan also became a conspiracy by Orochimaru to force the Third Hokage to abdicate. The reversal of public opinion caused the Konoha hawks headed by Orochimaru to collapse immediately, and even the Uchiha clan chose to keep their distance from Orochimaru.

Orochimaru completely lost the hope of becoming the fifth generation Hokage.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting high on the Diaoyutai, couldn't help but smile happily.

Because all of this was just his calculation, whether it was Kumogakure, the Uchiha clan, or the diplomatic incident that broke out before, all the people in this game were just his chess pieces. Only he, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was the high and mighty chess player!
