Konoha dances on Zanpakutō

Chapter 189 You Forgot One Thing
"I think everyone already knows what happened in Hokage Tower yesterday. Yes, last night, the third Hokage Hiruza Sarutobi was assassinated and died. We don't know who the real murderer is. But what we can be sure of is, The person who assassinated Ri Zhan is very powerful and must not disappear."

In the spacious conference room, Danzo stood on the rostrum, looked at everyone present, and reported what happened last night.

As one of the three advisors and the root minister, the current Danzo can be regarded as the most powerful person in the village, so he is currently presiding over the entire meeting.

And the ninjas present in the meeting room are all well-connected, either rich patriarchs like Hinata Hizuru, or high-level village officials like Mitomon Yan, and even the Senju clan who is in charge of the Ministry of Education and has always been low-key also appeared. on site.

As the captain of the garrison and the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku was naturally also present.

And different from the situation where the Uchiha clan was excluded in the past, the Uchiha Fugaku is now sitting at the chief of the conference room. The seat is not far from the two consultants, Zhuanju Xiaoharu and Mitomonyan, and they are even the closest people. .

You must know that this is not a private occasion, but a formal meeting place. On such occasions, Uchiha Fugaku always sits in the second row or even the third row.

But after the third Hokage was assassinated and killed, Uchiha Fugaku sat here, which seemed very intriguing.

Therefore, not only the Senju people who have a delicate relationship with the Uchiha clan, but also other ninjas will cast their eyes on Uchiha Fugaku from time to time during the meeting, thinking about the meaning of this.

After all, they are all very clear that since the appearance of a Uchiha Madara, the whole village has been very vigilant towards the Uchiha clan, especially after the Kyuubi Rebellion, this level of vigilance has become a bit more serious.

So regarding the change of Uchiha Fugaku's ranking, they couldn't help muttering in their hearts, not knowing what happened.

But regardless of what they thought, the meeting went on as usual.

After Danzo reported the relevant information on the investigation of the assassination incident last night, Mito Menyan also took advantage of the opportunity and stood up.

"The results of the current investigation are like this, and further investigation is needed. But what I want to say is another thing," said Mito Menyan in a sad voice, as if he was mourning the death of his friend, "I know that in Japan After being beheaded to death, everyone must be very sad, because I am the same as you. But we are ninjas after all, and we cannot indulge our emotions in sadness. For the sake of the village, we must cheer up as soon as possible."

As he spoke, he paused: "I think that our top priority now is that besides finding the murderer who killed Ri Zhan as soon as possible, we must also identify the temporary leader of the village. After all, none of us knows what caused Ri Zhan's death. It’s not the conspiracy of other ninja villages. If there are really other ninja villages behind this, then our Konoha will face great danger, and if we don’t handle it properly, we may repeat the mistakes of sand hidden village back then.”

Hearing his words, the expressions of the ninjas sitting below changed, and they couldn't help but nodded, feeling heavy.

After all, Mitomonyan is telling the truth, and the entire ninja world is very clear. At first, it was because the third Kazekage of Sand Hidden Village died for no apparent reason. The first ninja war.

Moreover, the third Ninja World War was not only the longest and longest and the one with the largest number of casualties among the previous Ninja World Wars, it was also the one closest to the present time.

So when people think of the Third World War, people naturally feel deeply, and feel timid and frightened.

"Yes, we must take measures as soon as possible!"

"Yeah, it can't be like Hidden Sand Village."

"Beware of other ninja villages!"

Everyone present has been discussing, until a question appeared——

"But who is qualified to be Hokage now?"

In an instant, the entire meeting room fell silent.

Who will be Hokage, this is indeed a very difficult question.

The qualifications of the two consultants, Mitomonyan and Zhuanju Koharu, are sufficient, but first of all, they don't have a strong ninja as their backing, and their prestige is not enough to convince the public. But Hokage is not so easy to be.

As for Danzo, his qualifications, strength, and prestige are all considered good, and his subordinates even have the huge power of roots.

But now is not the time when he retired for many years in the later comics. Now his roots are expanding in Konoha, and Danzo's name can be regarded as a notorious existence, so there are not many people who support him.

Excluding these three old guys, it seems that suitable candidates for Hokage should be selected from the middle-aged generation.

Thinking of this, people naturally turned their attention to the Senshou Clan and the Sarutobi Clan subconsciously, after all, Hokage had appeared among them.

It's just that the Senju Clan has always been low-key, only responsible for the affairs of the ninja school, and did not participate in the competition of the Fourth Hokage, let alone at this time.

And the Sarutobi clan has no successors now. The eldest son of the third Hokage is not only mediocre, but also has no interest in becoming a ninja. The younger son is quite talented, but he is only in his twenties. Obviously, they are not suitable candidates. .

Among the middle-aged generation, the one who is more qualified is Nara Shikahisa. As a think tank of Hokage, he has a good prestige, but his strength is still a little bit weaker. Now he can barely reach the level of elite jonin.

Looking at it this way, the only person present who is most suitable to become Hokage is...

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help turning their eyes to the silent Uchiha Fugaku.

In the third Ninja World War, according to the duties of the garrison, Uchiha Fugaku, the team leader, had no obligation to go to the battlefield at all.

But he led his clansmen to the battlefield without hesitation, and made many achievements in the war, and won the title of 'Evil Eye Fuyue', which is sufficient in terms of qualifications and strength.

When the Third Ninja World War just ended, the third Hokage took the blame and resigned. Many people speculated that Uchiha Fugaku would be promoted as the new Hokage, but Namikaze Minato, who was only in his twenties at the time, was really It was too dazzling, which caused him to miss the position of Hokage.

But now, due to the third Ninja World War and the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Konoha's talents are withered, and the third Hokage has just died, so no matter from the perspective of seniority and strength or the forces behind it, Uchiha Fugaku is promoted as the new Hokage. is the best choice.

But these are only theoretical.

In fact, even if you don’t mention Uchiha Madara, who has influenced Konoha’s policy for so many years, the village’s hatred and rejection of Uchiha after the Kyuubi Rebellion is doomed to basically miss Uchiha’s position as Naruto.

What's more, according to the news reported by Danzo, one of the murderers who assassinated the third Hokage is likely to be Uchiha Itachi, the son of Uchiha Fugaku, so he is even further away from the Hokage throne.

Most of the people in the conference room have this view, but some people don't think so.

Looking at the position where Uchiha Fugaku was sitting, they couldn't help guessing in their hearts: "He suddenly sat in such a position. Could it be that the high-level people are really planning to support Uchiha Fugaku as Hokage?"

Just when people were thinking about the future of the village, Mitomonyan looked down at Danzo and Koharu, nodded slightly, and prepared to speak according to the original plan.

bang,

There was a loud noise, and the door of the conference room was kicked open, interrupting Mitomon Yan who was about to speak.

"who?!"

The faces of all the people present changed, and they all turned their heads to look at the door.

Two heavy doors were slammed against the wall, and a tall figure appeared in people's eyes.

"Broken Wave?!"

The faces of Danzo, Uchiha Fugaku and others changed.

Especially Uchiha Fugaku, he also checked Duanlang's situation before he came, and found that the other party had entered a deep sleep, at least a few hours before he could wake up, he did not expect to appear here suddenly, and also brought With a menacing feeling.

"Hehe, it's really lively here, but how can I miss such an important matter?"

Duanlang's cold eyes swept over the faces of the three consultants and Uchiha Togaku, scraping their faces like a sharp knife.

Seeing this, Uchiha Fugaku lowered his head slightly ashamed, not daring to look directly into Duanlang's eyes.

But Danzo's eyes contained a cold killing intent, as if he was ready to cut him into pieces at any time.

"Hey, who are you kid? Why did you break into the meeting room?"

A middle-aged man with oil paint on his face asked loudly.

However, Duanlang ignored him, and instead went straight through the crowd towards the rostrum in the meeting room.

"Didn't you hear me talking to you!"

The middle-aged man looked very angry. At the same time, several Anbu also noticed the movement here and appeared in the meeting room.

But before he got angry and asked Anbu to drive away Duanlang, Nara Shikahisa immediately stood up: "Duanlang, why are you here?"

"What? He is Uchiha Duannang?"

"It doesn't look like anything special!"

"What's so great about this kid that he managed to escape with his life last night?"

Seeing Duanlang slowly approaching, everyone couldn't help talking.

They have heard from Danzo before that Duannang of the Uchiha clan survived the assassination of Hokage yesterday, and is an important witness to investigate the truth of the assassination of the third Hokage.

It's just that they never thought that Duanlang, who was seriously injured in Danzo's mouth, looked like a normal person except for a few pieces of gauze wrapped around his body, and suddenly appeared here.

"If I don't come." In just a few seconds, Duanlang's footsteps seemed to be slow but fast, and he had already arrived at the rostrum, so he stood still and looked directly at the people in front of him. Cheng made a big mistake?"

"Duanlang, what do you mean by that?"

Danzo spoke coldly, and only glanced at him when he spoke, looking a little disdainful.

"What I mean is that you have held a meeting here rashly, but you have forgotten me. It is a very big mistake."

Duanlang confronted Danzo without giving in, which made the people around him look at him with admiration.

You must know that the root under Danzo's command is notorious in the entire ninja world, known for being cruel and cold-blooded, even the people in the village respect and fear him, and few people dare to talk to him like that.

And Danzo is obviously very uncomfortable with this, but fortunately, he has seen Duanlang's outspokenness yesterday, so he quickly adjusted his mood, and said with a cold snort: "The old man knows that you are the only one who survived yesterday's assassination Witnesses, but this is not what we are discussing now, so as an ordinary ninja, you should hurry out."

"Tsk tsk tsk," Duanlang smiled and shook his head, "I think the elderly who can't even remember important things should return to their proper positions instead of coming here to cause trouble for others?"

"Do you mean that the old man is old?"

Danzo narrowed his eyes, and people couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat for Duanlang.

According to their understanding, when Danzo showed such an expression, it meant that killing intent had already arisen in his heart.

After all, although Danzo is old, he is still ambitious, dreaming of becoming Hokage, and usually taboos others to say that he is old.

But even other people might find it hard to bear Duanlang's cynicism, which can also be seen from the pale faces of the two advisors, Mitomonyan and Zhuanju Xiaochun.

"That's right, isn't it?" However, Duanlang seemed to have no sense of danger, with a slight smile on his face, "After all, you seem to have forgotten a very important thing."

"A very important thing?" Tuanzang's lips curled up, "I don't remember anything."

"That's why I came here to remind you," Duanlang said as he took out a scroll from his arms, "You are still discussing who should lead Konoha, but you have forgotten that Hokage-sama was here yesterday. On the warrant signed by me, I have been officially appointed as the new Hokage."

Before the words were finished, there was an uproar in the conference venue.

They never thought that Duanlang who suddenly appeared came to announce that he had become Hokage.

Of course, what is even more shocking is that the third Hokage would choose Duanlang to be the new Hokage. Is he confused?
You must know that although the third Hokage was also appointed before the second Hokage died, he had already experienced the first ninja war before that, and made a great name in the war.

After that, he became the guard of the second Hokage, and followed the second Hokage to participate in the peace negotiations with Yunyin Village. He was one of the most powerful candidates for the next Hokage at that time.

And what about Duanlang?

Before his duel with Uchiha Iron Fire, he was just an unknown pawn. Except for the Uchiha clan, few people knew of his existence.

Why does such a person become Hokage?
This question instantly became the only thought in the hearts of almost everyone present!
