Escape From Konoha - Vol 2 Chapter 130

“That really doesn’t look like something Hokage-sama would say.”

Although all the ninjas and villagers standing on the stage heard Hiizaki’s declaration, it was certain that there would be some commotion among the crowd.

But there are still some ninjas who don’t believe this kind of words, it’s from Naruto’s original intention.

Red is one of them.

As a Shangnin, she is also the mentor of this year’s graduates. She has been in contact with Naruto not too many times. She dare not say that she fully understands it, but she never believes that the old man will reveal himself at such a time. ‘s mistakes.

“Asma, don’t you know what happened?”

Red doesn’t know what prompted Hokage to make such a decision, but the smell of the conspiracy inside has been clearly smelled.

With a lit cigarette in his mouth, Asma took off the cigarette butt, spit out a smoke ring, and said, “No, I haven’t seen the old man much recently. The old man’s behavior is indeed a little strange.”

“The rest of the people are also in disbelief.”

“Of course, as Hokage, how can you do such a disqualified thing. It’s really indecent.”

It was not Asma who said this, but Ebisu who was standing on Asma’s right hand. His voice sounded very low and depressed.

Even during the end of the Third Ninja World War, many ninjas in the village were dissatisfied due to the appeasement policy implemented by Naruto himself, but the subsequent resignation was only decided through an internal Shangnin meeting. A public meeting like this is simply impossible.

“I didn’t expect you to come. How about Naruto?”

Red asked.

“There is Kai there to protect him secretly, and there is no problem for the time being. But Kakashi’s whereabouts are still unknown, even Mr. Shikahisa. When we don’t know, something must have happened above.”

Ebisu stared at Hizan above, feeling a little uneasy.

Just as they were communicating, standing on the roof of the Hokage Building, looking down at the sun slash of the crowd below, he said again at this moment:

“…One of my faults, on the day of arresting Orochimaru, I failed to do my best, and the incident that led to Orochimaru’s successful escape and release… This is absolutely true. At that time, I did have the strength to arrest Orochimaru. capture…”

The tone of voice changed from calm to sad, and what Hizan said made the atmosphere of the scene suddenly tense.

Many people looked at Xiang Ri Zhan in disbelief.

Because of Orochimaru’s defection, Konoha’s original reputation suffered a huge blow.

Not only that, the crime of Orochimaru’s defection was to use the ninjas and villagers in the village recklessly for taboo human experiments.

Today, the families of the victims still live in the village of Konoha, and they detest defectors like Orochimaru.

And things are far more than that. In order to ensure that Konoha’s confidential information will not be leaked, Konoha has set up the Joinin and Anbu teams to pursue Orochimaru many times over the years, but because Orochimaru is too cunning, the pursuit team is futile every time. He returned and suffered many casualties due to the pursuit of Orochimaru.

These old and new hatreds should have ended in the beginning.

As a result, because Hokage himself did not do his best on the day of the incident, more people died, and he failed to give justice to the families of the victims…

Therefore, the family members of the victims who appeared below because of Orochimaru looked at the Hokage Hizan in shock, as if they thought they had heard it wrong.

“What does it mean?”

“Lord Hokage, please give us an explanation!”

“What happened in the original Orochimaru negotiation?”

Such voices continued to be heard in the crowd, and they ignored the pain and guilt on Ri Zhan’s face, and questioned them one after another.

Not only civilians, but even ninjas couldn’t sit still.

Many of them were former supporters of Rijian.

They can’t believe this kind of thing is real.

Of course, there are more instigators of the militant faction.

They have long been dissatisfied with Hirokage, who likes to implement the policy of appeasement, and such dissatisfaction was buried during the Second Ninja World War before the Third Ninja World War.

At this time, they saw that Ri Zhan was on the verge of falling, and naturally they were reluctant to let go of such a great opportunity.

After all, if Nippon Zhan himself didn’t stand up and make a statement, they could only whisper in secret.

“…Second…”

Rizhan continued to speak with a sad expression on his face.

The voice below became smaller again, and the eyes looking at Xiang Ri Zhan were full of complexity and doubts.

The things that Hokage admits by himself can never be false.

It is for this reason that those who had believed in Rijian had such a low mood.

“I have to clarify one thing, that is, regarding the Kuo attack on Konoha twelve years ago, I did not deliberately delay the rescue time, causing the fourth generation to die in the battle with Kuo…”

He denied the untrue rumors that he framed the fourth generation.

Such words reassure many people.

However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, Hizan said again: “However, the genteel in the village… Naruto Uzumaki is indeed the son of the fourth Hokage. I also concealed the identity of the hero’s son of Naruto Uzumaki with my own hands…”

stunned.

The people below stared blankly at Hizaki.

I didn’t expect that there would be a reversal at this time.

The things that Naruto himself confirmed are naturally very convincing.

That is to say, Naruto, whom they have hated and despised for so many years, is indeed the son of a real hero, not a fiction.

The villagers and ninjas who once cursed Naruto were at a loss for a while, staring at their hands in a daze, as if saying, “What stupid things have you done?”

“Why is that?”

“Lord Hokage, why are you hiding such a thing?”

“Could it be that you really want to regain power…”

“If that’s the case, isn’t the testimony that you never framed the fourth generation of adults full of lies?”

“…”

Doubt, anger, bewilderment, puzzlement, questioning… In short, all kinds of voices came out, making everything here in a noisy and noisy atmosphere, making people feel extremely harsh.

Next, no matter how the working ninjas on the scene mediate, the emotions of the crowd below can no longer be suppressed.

Even some places went out of control directly, causing stampede incidents. Fortunately, ninjas were quick-witted to prevent such a thing, otherwise there would be a lot of tragedies today.

Facing the commotion below, Ri Zhan didn’t say a word, just bent down and bowed, like a gesture of apology, and didn’t look up for a long time.

“Sun Cut…”

In the back, watching Mito Kazuo and Koharu, who were watching Hizan, wanted to step forward to stop him, but he couldn’t bear to suffer such humiliation for his old friend, but he felt the coldness coming from the side, so he put his palm down and closed it. Eyes sighed.

“Danzo, your goal has been achieved, don’t torture Rizao anymore!”

Mito Menyan knew that the next public meeting could not be held at all.

The mood of the crowd was so turbulent that it was almost on the verge of getting out of control.

Whether it’s Orochimaru or the disclosure of the four generations of Hokage’s son, each of them is enough to make Hiyori unable to come to the stage.

And now the two broke out together, the consequences can be imagined.

Konoha’s day has changed.

“Of course, I didn’t intend to take his life. I can enjoy my old age in peace in the future, and I won’t waste my colleagues.”

Danzo looked calm.

He declined to comment at all on the cacophony surrounding him.

In fact, it’s enough to reveal here.

Because, only these two things were indeed done by Rijian.

Although the cause of the matter has more complex constitutions, such as the intervention of the roots, etc., the angry crowd has already begun infinite associations.

And this kind of association will turn false things into reality, and all kinds of mistakes that are not mentioned, or even that Ri Zhan has not committed, will be pressed towards Ri Zhan.

Even if it is not true, it will become true.

Remove the root completely from it.

After all, if some things are said in too much detail, there may be loopholes.

“I hope you do what you say.”

Mito Kazuya couldn’t tell if Danzo’s words were true or not, but he could only trust him at this time.

Then, he turned to Anbu not far away, and ordered: “Stop this public meeting and evacuate the crowd.”

“Yes.”

Anbu, who received the order, took action one after another, staring at the pressure of the crowd as if to eat people, and began to evacuate the crowd.

“It turns out to be true… I am…”

With his back against the wall, Naruto was shrouded in the shadow of the wall, looking at the lines on his palm, his face was filled with indescribable loss.

Before coming, he had imagined that Grandpa Hokage, whom he respected, could clarify these untrue rumors and give him justice.

However, this time it really turned into a ‘justice’ for him.

Although this kind of ‘fairness’ was not what he hoped for.

“Naruto, you are here.”

Shikamaru’s voice came out from the side, and judging from the anxious look on his face, it was running over.

“It’s Shikamaru… I’m sorry, I have something to do.”

Naruto turned his head and glanced at Shikamaru, then turned around and headed back towards his apartment. He was very lonely, as if he had suffered a very serious blow.

“Naruto, wait-”

Shikamaru wanted to catch up.

“Don’t worry about it, Naruto is not so fragile. It’s best to let him calm down by himself now. If you go there now, it will only backfire.”

Sasuke appeared behind Shikamaru and said with his back against the wall.

Shikamaru looked back at Sasuke, rubbed his brows in distress, and said, “It seems to be the case, but I didn’t expect it to be true. Now things seem to be a little troublesome.”

“It’s not a hassle, but Naruto sometimes likes to get into the horns. After he calms down, he will naturally reply. Next, what are you going to do? Judging from the public speech of Hokage-sama just now, I’m afraid…”

Sasuke’s words were interrupted here, as if he had predicted something.

“Ah, even if you say that, I don’t know what to do.”

Shikamaru spread his hands, as if giving up thinking.

Not only Orochimaru, but also Naruto’s heavy blow, it can be said that their Hokage-sama, it can be said that Hokage’s position, has already achieved his head.

“Next, it’s not hard to see that there will be huge changes at the top, and thus decide the candidate of the fifth Hokage. This is not a trivial matter. I don’t know who the person called Danzo is, but he gave it to me. It feels very bad. It would feel very bad for him to be Hokage.”

Shikamaru started to analyze the existing information and expressed his views on Danzo.

“Having said that, I don’t know what to do at all. We are still the educated party, and it is impossible to intervene in high-level meetings.”

Shikamaru continued to talk about his thoughts, full of pessimism.

Sasuke fell silent without saying a word.

His thoughts are similar to Shikamaru.

Although I am very sorry for what happened today, but this kind of thing is force majeure, even if I have become a Chunin, the right to speak in the village is still insignificant.

And the identity of the orphan of the Uchiha family, at this time, there is absolutely no way to use it.

“It feels like a natural disaster, making people irresistible…”

Shikamaru smiled helplessly.

“Even if it is a natural disaster, there is a way to resist it. The reason why we can’t resist it is because we are too weak, and we are still children.”

Sasuke retorted.

“I’m really confident. If that’s the case, then I’m going back. Be careful, no one knows what’s going to happen until the dust settles.”

Sasuke put his hands in his trouser pockets, shook his flowing black hair, turned his back to Shikamaru and left.

“Ah, I will.”

“…In view of the many faults of Hokage himself, which have brought a huge negative impact on the village, after a high-level decision, the current position of the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Rizan will be suspended.”

After the public meeting that was interrupted, came the jounin meeting that the jounin must attend.

There were five people sitting at the front of the conference room.

In addition to the four high-level executives who attended the public meeting before, Lu Jiu, who disappeared for many days, also joined the decision-making level as the squad leader of the above ninja.

When Xiaochun read these remarks in bed, Lu Jiu sat silently by the side, and judging from his complexion, he was not abused. Seeing this, Ding Zuo and Hai Yi, who were sitting in the front seats, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had found the backbone.

“Therefore, the next election about the fifth Hokage must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.”

Seeing the discussion among the Shangin, Xiaochun turned to bed without realizing it, and continued to deliver his lines in calm words:

“In view of the Daimyo and Hokage, only two candidate lists have been given. Therefore, in the next election of the Five Hokage, the selection will be made between Shimura Danzo and Tsunade. The election meeting of the Five Hokage will be held in It will be held at 9:00 in the morning three days later. At that time, both candidates will need to be present. The above is the content of this Shangnin meeting. Do you have any questions about the Shangin?”

Turning to bed, Xiaochun turned to look at the hundreds of cadres sitting in front of him.

The Shangnin were not surprised by this decision.

Based on what Sun Zhan had done before, he had given up the ability and qualifications to continue to hold the position of Hokage, and he had to give up this position.

And the new Hokage, of course, was elected from among Konoha’s many jōnin.

Fame, character, and strength are all within the scope of the key investigation.

After such remarks, a jounin raised his hand, stood up, and asked, “I want to ask, where is Tsunade-sama?”

“Currently, Jiraiya, who is also a Sannin, is being dispatched to find it.”

Turning to bed, Koharu replied.

“Then what if Tsunade-sama doesn’t have time to participate in this vote?”

The name Junin continued to ask, seemingly unwilling.

Obviously, he believed in Tsunade’s ability more than Danzo.

It’s hard to compare in terms of strength, but whether it’s fame or character, Tsunade is more worthy of his trust.

Before Xiaochun turned to bed, Lu Jiu, who was the squad leader of Shangnin, took the lead and said, “If Tsunade-sama fails to arrive in time, it can only be treated as a waiver.”

“Abstain from voting? Wouldn’t it be too unfair to do so? Why don’t you find Tsunade-sama first, and then hold this voting meeting.”

Kamijin continued.

Many people are also nodding, agreeing with this approach.

Lu Jiu’s voice was slightly lowered, and he responded to these people in a calm tone: “No. After these days of nonsense, the management system of the village has already appeared at the source of chaos, and the rest of the villages have almost learned about the situation here. Look at the jokes on our side. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the candidate of the fifth Hokage as soon as possible, concentrate everyone’s strength, get through this crisis, and regain trust. Right now, what we lack is time. If Tsunade-sama can’t arrive in time by then , that can only say sorry…”

“how so……”

“This is something that can’t be helped. Konoha cannot lack Hokage. The sooner Hokage is decided now, the sooner the crisis in the village will be resolved. If the delay in deciding on Hokage causes other villages and countries to take advantage of it, I will wait. It’s Konoha’s sinner.”

Lu Jiu’s attitude was very firm.

Although he didn’t like Danzo, but at this point, it was difficult for him to ride a tiger.

Otherwise, Danzo would not have released him at this time.

As for Tsunade’s whereabouts, I’m afraid… only Danzo knows where it is.

With Danzo’s shrewdness, she won’t kill Tsunade ruthlessly and waste such an excellent medical ninja… But she will definitely control Tsunade so that she can’t have any contact with the outside world, and thus miss this election. .

When the dust settles, even if Tsunade returns, nothing can be changed.

Now, whether from the family’s point of view or the village’s point of view, it is the best way for Shikaku to make Danzo the top five Hokage as soon as possible.

“Any questions?”

Mitomon Yan opened his mouth.

Some Junin looked at each other and wanted to say something, but in the end, because of scruples, they sat down and didn’t speak.

“If that’s the case, then, disband. The election of the five generations of Hokage will also be conducted among the villagers. The public security in the village will be temporarily controlled by everyone.”

Compared with Chunin and Genin, the management and combat experience of the Shangnin, as well as their calm attitude in times of crisis, are better than those of Chunin and Genin.

With the help of all the Jounin, the work of the guards and Anbu will be much smoother and easier, and there will be no rush at that time.

And once the Hokage candidate is confirmed, the village will regain its past stability.

◎

Iron country.

The empty forest was covered with snow, the temperature was very low, and there was an icy pallor everywhere.

In the midst of ice and snow, a root ninja wearing a colorful animal mask stood in front of Tsunade and confronted her.

“How about it, Tsunade-sama, have you thought it through? If we agree, we will immediately return the silicon to Miss Mute without hurting a single hair on her.”

“Shut up! You look like this, are you still Konoha’s ninjas? You actually take hostages and endanger people in your village!”

Tsunade gritted his teeth and clenched his fists at the root ninja. He really wanted to punch the root ninja in front of him, but in the end he was worried about something, and finally restrained the urge to do it himself.

You can see the anger and helplessness in her heart.

In the face of Tsunade’s murderous attitude, the nerves in the root ninja’s body were all tense.

Although there is no fear in his eyes, the instinct of his body still makes him vigilant in his heart.

In any case, facing a ninja of the level of Sannin alone, he has no chance of winning.

In particular, Tsunade in front of her was a terrifying woman with unparalleled power.

To this day, Konoha’s bathhouse still spreads the myths and legends of her immortality when she was young.

For example, Jiraiya, who is also a three-ninja, is dying with one punch… It shows the horror of this strange power, and it is definitely not a powerful attack that ordinary people can withstand.

“Our research on tailed beast drugs has reached a bottleneck. We need better ninjas to break the deadlock and create more effective tailed beast drugs. This is inseparable from Tsunade-sama’s help.”

“I said, I won’t do this kind of human experiment for your roots! If you are sensible, hand over the mute to me quickly!”

Tsunade angrily flashed in front of the root ninja, grabbed his collar tightly with the palm of his hand, and picked him up with one hand effortlessly.

“This is for the future of the village… We must rely on this drug to balance the country of ghosts… Tsunade-sama’s medical ninjutsu is an indispensable and important part.”

The root ninja didn’t seem to feel the murderous aura on Tsunade, and said without emotion.

“How many times do you have to tell me before you understand?”

“Please join Master Tsunade in the research. It is the supreme task given to us by Master Danzo. Even if we die, we must complete it.”

The root ninja responded mechanically, as if he had no emotions of his own.

“You are really like puppets without souls. Then I will tell you, no matter how many times you threaten, I will not cooperate with your roots!”

Tsunade frowned in disgust, left the root ninja roughly on the snow, turned his head and left.

“Cough cough.” The root ninja coughed and spat out the snow in his mouth, looked at Tsunade’s back and said, “Is this really good? Miss Mute is Kato Kunein’s niece, and Tsunade-sama, you are the most important. people…”

However, his threat only made Tsunade stay on the snow for a few seconds, and then left more firmly, as if he didn’t care about the threat.

The root ninja stood up from the ground and slapped the snowflakes on his clothes.

“Thanks a lot.”

The voice came from behind. It was a ninja without a mask at the root~www.mtlnovel.com~ with an orange ponytail and a ninja sword behind him.

He stared in the direction where Tsunade was gone, expressionless.

It is Danzo’s trusted guard Joinin – Yamanakakaze.

“It seems that she has no doubts. She still thinks that we are forcing her to participate in the research of tail animal drugs, and I don’t think that there is a problem in the village.”

The root ninja whispered.

“Just hang her here, so that she can’t detect our real movements. There is no one here, and she can’t get any information from the outside world.”

“Then Jiraiya is over there…”

The corner of Shan Zhongfeng’s mouth twitched, confident.

“In the name of the three generations of Hokage, through Anbu, he was ordered to be transferred back to the village. Next, we just need to wait for Danzo-sama to become Hokage. Our long-cherished wish for many years, soon…”
