Hikaru Hokage

"it is good."

Hino Hikaru retracted his divergent sight and thoughts.

However, just when he turned around——

thump.

It's the butt...ahem, it's the sound of a female body falling to the ground.

"Mrs. Mikoto?"

What Hino Hikaru never expected was that Uchiha Mikoto in front of him would suddenly fall to the ground.

The paper umbrella in his hand also fell to the ground, and was slowly blown away by the wind.

Although the rain in the sky was not heavy, the wife who was lying on the ground wearing a dress at this moment would soon become a drowned rat.

The ground was damp and puddled.

"Hey, wake up!"

Hino Hikaru quickly helped Uchiha Mikoto who fell to the ground.

"I...I'm not...ok."

Uchiha Mikoto struggled to stand up on her own, but failed, and instead fell further into Hino Hikaru's arms.

"Feel sorry……"

After realizing that she was sticking to the young man's body even while dribbling and dribbling, a blush appeared on Uchiha Mikoto's pale face, and then she quickly distanced herself.

But even though she tried to hold on, her consciousness still couldn't get through her body.

"Hey……"

Looking at the wife who fell on his arm again, Hino Hikaru finally supported her firmly this time.

"Can a ninja still catch a cold?"

The warmth of Uchiha Mikoto's cheek coming from her arm allowed Hino Hikaru to understand more or less the other party's current state.

"It's really troublesome when it rains."

It's a bit difficult to hold an umbrella while supporting a fainted person.

Hino Hikaru thought for a while, but still hugged the wife in front of him, and then teleported back to the house not far from where he had just walked out in a few breaths.

Anyway, let's throw her to Tsunade as soon as possible.

I don’t know if medical ninjas can cure colds.

Chapter 144 Samyi: What does he think of me?

"The Third Hokage plans to sell Sister Mikoto's son, Uchiha Itachi, to Kirigakure Village?"

Shizune, who had just returned from Konoha Hospital, widened her eyes.

"You are selling the Three-Tails, but it is equivalent to selling Itachi, who is the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki."

At first, Tsunade was a little confused when she saw Hino Hikaru suddenly walking in with her arms in her arms.

And now...

Looking at Uchiha Mikoto, who was lying on the quilt and had been changed into clothes by Uchiha Akina.

There was only emotion and sympathy on Tsunade's face.

She had just given the other party a simple diagnosis and treatment.

Mental and physical exhaustion, coupled with lack of sleep and cold, seemed to have completely crushed the body of this Uchiha female ninja.

This caused the other party to faint on the road after taking only two steps.

"But how did Uchiha Mikoto know about this kind of thing? The Third Hokage shouldn't publicize this kind of thing, right?"

Hino Hikari couldn't help but be curious.

"It was Fugaku who told her and asked her to sacrifice herself for the village..."

Because of Uchiha Shisui's "defection", Uchiha Itachi was also taken away from the Uchiha clan by the Third Hokage.

Now it is supervised by people from the Sarutobi clan.

Therefore, Uchiha Mikoto asked Uchiha Fugaku about Uchiha Itachi's condition many times, and Uchiha Fugaku, who basically couldn't lie, told her all the situation.

"No wonder."

With Uchiha Fugaku's puppet consciousness after being brainwashed by other gods, it is not unusual for him to say such words.

The son is going to be sold, and the husband has to ask his wife not to resist.

Just imagining the situation that Uchiha Mikoto faced recently, Hino Hikaru felt his scalp numb.

"Sister Miqin is so miserable. Her husband cheated on her and gave birth to a child. Her son has to be...sold..."

Shizune was also very sad to hear this.

"!?"

"Cheating and having a child?"

When was this news?

Tsunade, Hino Hikaru, and Uchiha Akina, who was still changing the towel on Uchiha Mikoto's forehead, all opened their mouths to express surprise.

"Don't you know yet? The Uchiha clan leader came to the hospital today with a woman who looked very close to him. Then the woman was confirmed to be pregnant. Now everyone is talking about his cheating..."

"Is there such a thing?"

After hearing this more "heavyweight" information, Tsunade looked at Uchiha Mikoto, who was still sleeping, with more sympathy.

This is too sad.

No wonder he fell ill immediately.

Well, if something like this happened to me, I might not even have the courage to go out...

Thinking about it this way, Mikoto is really strong.

Thinking of this, Tsunade couldn't help but subconsciously hug Hino Hikaru's arm, seeking comfort.

"..."

Hino Hikaru's expression at this moment is also wonderful.

The husband became a puppet and was taken advantage of by other women to get mixed up with each other, and then the wife was alone outside crying...

If the genders were changed, this would be a standard ntr book plot... Ahem, in short, I didn't expect that Uchiha Fugaku's will had been eliminated, but he still had the ability to do that.

I thought the puppet would not have that kind of thoughts.

But it seems that Uchiha Fugaku still retains his instinct as a living creature.

However, I am afraid that even Uchiha Shisui, the instigator, never thought that such a thing would happen to Uchiha Fugaku.

"If Uchiha Itachi is really sold to Kirigakure Village in the future, I'm afraid Mikoto..."

There's absolutely no way you can withstand such a blow again, right?

Tsunade felt that she needed to be the Hokage more and more.

To save the life of an innocent woman.

"Anyway, since such a big thing happened, let her stay with us for a few more days."

Tsunade felt that it would be too cruel to send Uchiha Mikoto back to the Uchiha clan like this when she was in a coma due to fever.

Who knows what kind of mental torture this patriarch’s wife is going through every day?

-

"Hino, do you really want to take out so much money at once?"

Although the four ninja swords were sold for a lot of money on the black market, Kakashi still felt that what Hino Hikaru planned to do seemed a bit too wasteful.

"It's still too little for me, but this is almost enough."

Looking at the piles of coins that Kakashi took out, Hino Hikaru nodded, then counted about 9000 million taels and put them into his storage scroll.

"You can give the rest of the money to Kai. It was originally his father's trophy..."

"Yes."

"Wait, you should wait until the next Hokage is elected before giving him the money, otherwise it will be easy for Sarutobi Hiruzen to find out."

"Um……"

"Don't worry, the money is just for Sarutobi Hiruzen to see, he can't get it."

"I understand, but it's too difficult to stack so much money under the Hokage Building without being discovered by other ninjas... Okay, I almost forgot, you have the secret technique of invisibility. "

Kakashi nodded and thought no more.

-

"9000 million taels!? Who put it at the door of the Hokage Building? Are they spreading rumors that I am corrupt?"

Early in the morning, Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little angry.

I had previously negotiated the price of the three tails with Mizukage from Kirigakure Village. Although the process was not pleasant, the ending was pretty good.

After selling a three-tailed piece he got for free at a relatively good price, Hiruzen Sarutobi was in a really good mood.

Until he came to the Hokage Building today, and saw a group of people gathered around the door——

Stacks of banknotes were piled there like a hill.

Moreover, it was specially noted that it was the stolen money that Hiruzen Sarutobi had embezzled as Hokage in recent years.

9000 taels...

Although there are not too many, but now they are placed in a pile, the impact on people's eyes is still quite big.

However, after all, Sarutobi Hiruzen's name was written on it, and no one around here dared to touch the pile of money.

"I'm not going to commit corruption... Ahem, in short, this is probably put here by someone with ulterior motives. Move it aside first. After counting, I will directly put the money into the village and distribute it every month. In the bank account of the war pension.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to curse loudly, but he still held back.

How could he afford to spend less than [-] million taels after being the Hokage for so long?

But the money is piled here. No matter how he handles it, those onlookers will only think that this is really his embezzled money.

After all, no one would believe that someone would pay such a large amount of money just to spread rumors about something as trivial as corruption.

This was so cruel that Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't think of any way to break the situation.

Looking at the distrustful looks cast by the surrounding onlookers, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that he had nowhere to use his strength.

The 9000 million taels were like a puddle of mud falling into his crotch.

He couldn't clean it up.

"That was my money that was stolen. There must be my money in it!"

At the same time, after hearing that someone had placed 9000 million taels of banknotes at the entrance of the Hokage Building, Danzo was so angry that he almost broke his teeth.

He thought about the money that had been stolen from his safe.

Reminiscent of the previous big-character posters targeting him and Orochimaru, and this time's incident that was obviously aimed at Sarutobi Hiruzen, it was not difficult for Danzo to think that the murderer of both incidents should be the same person.

But who else in the village has this ability, or who has this motive?

And also with the help of Sharingan...

-

"Corruption is indeed just a trivial matter in normal times, and it is a trivial matter that will be quickly forgotten, but now during the general election, it is no longer a trivial matter."

"Yes, most people now hope that the Third Hokage will step down as soon as possible."

Starting from the incident with Danzo Orochimaru, the Third Hokage and Hiruzen Sarutobi had already begun to show cracks in the great golden body of Kishikashi that he had created for himself.

Using a crystal ball to peek into a bathhouse ruined his moral reputation, and corruption ruined his reputation.

Although they seem to be small things, such small things continue to add up, and eventually they can tear the cracks in Sarutobi Hiruzen's "golden body" wider and wider.
