What Hiruzaru Sarutobi didn't know was that his trust would be betrayed many times.

Even Danzo, who is looking at him now, will kill him in the future.

"It's shameful not to come to the meeting at such a time."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi cursed in a low voice, but it didn't show on his face.

He scanned everyone's faces, and said in a deep voice: "Next, everyone recommend a leader who will fight Sha Yin."

The leader has supreme power in the entire battlefield, and can mobilize ninjas at will, affecting the outcome of the battle.

But at the same time, the leader must have the strength and prestige enough to deter everyone, and have the ability to change the situation of the battle.

As soon as these words came out, everyone showed a thoughtful expression, pondering carefully.

After a moment of silence, Nara Shikahisa, who was the best at strategizing and planning, opened his mouth first.

"I recommend Lord Sakumo."

His eyes shining with wisdom fell on Hatake Sakumo's body, exuding a calm and leisurely look.

"During World War II, Sakumo-sama's superb sword skills caused huge losses to Sand Yin."

"I believe everyone knows that the person Sha Yin's puppeteer fears most is Master Shuo Mao."

"I believe that if he plays the role, this battle will definitely be won."

Following Nara Shikahisa's words, everyone's eyes focused on Hatake Sakumo.

I saw him sitting upright on the chair, Gu Jing Wubo's eyes were like a deep pool, and he was very indifferent.

This is a kind of self-confidence from the inside out.

Of course, he deserves such confidence.

After all, what Nara Shikahisa said was not exaggerated at all, and they were all facts that could not be questioned.

These are all the achievements of Hatake Sakumo, so he can naturally accept all of them calmly and show corresponding confidence.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded and pondered, "Sakumo Hatake is indeed a very suitable candidate. Do you have any other recommendations?"

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't express any further opinions. They obviously recognized Sakumo Hatake very much.

But there was one person who didn't think so, and the cold and hoarse voice reached everyone's ears.

"I think Orochimaru can also take on this important task."

Everyone glanced at Danzo vaguely, bowed their heads silently, and kept silent.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at Danzo, and then said: "Oshemaru is one of the Sannin, its own strength is not inferior to Hatake Sakumo, and he has rich experience in war."

"It's also a good candidate."

His voice was flat and soft, and everyone listened to it, and didn't feel that there was anything superfluous.

The next moment, Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked again: "Are there any other candidates?"

Everyone lowered their heads, and figures flashed in their minds.

But after much deliberation, he couldn't think of another candidate.

After all, after World War II, the strength of Konoha plummeted a lot.

Jiraiya and Tsunade left one after another, resulting in two fewer Kage-level powerhouses in the village.

But they should be thankful that Hatake Sakumo didn't commit suicide because of Ye Feng.

Otherwise, they can't choose one or the other now, and can only push everything to Dashewan.

Looking at the people who bowed their heads and said nothing, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's eyes flickered with a faint light, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he said, "If that's the case, I'll make the decision on my own, old man."

Everyone raised their heads with surprise in their eyes, feeling that it was different from what they had imagined.

Shouldn't one of the two be voted on?
Isn't Konoha's policy always democratic?

As if he couldn't see the surprise in everyone's eyes, Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice, "The leader of this Kawa no Kuni campaign is"

"Orochimaru!"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and their eyes immediately focused on Sakumo Hatake.

But to everyone's disappointment, Hatake Sakumo didn't respond, and Furui Wubo's eyes never showed the slightest ripple.

Nara Shikahisa's eyes roved over Hatake Sakumo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he vaguely thought of something.

But Danzo's eyes were bright, and he was inexplicably moved.

He looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen affectionately, as if expressing silent feelings.

Did you finally understand my heart?
Orochimaru was recommended by him, and Hiruzaru Sarutobi chose Orochimaru, which seemed to show a certain attitude.

This touched Danzo's heart, after all, the gap between him and Hiruzaru Sarutobi had grown deeper and deeper over the years.

Such moments of connectedness are so rare!

But Hiruzaru Sarutobi didn't look at him, but looked at Sakumo Hatake with deep eyes.

Hatake Sakumo was also looking at him, and when they looked at each other, they nodded towards him.

Hiru Sarutobi looked back clearly, at that moment, he and Sakumo Hatake seemed to have had a heart-to-heart communication, revealing everything.

He asked everyone, "Do you have any opinions?"

Several people on the long table looked at each other without speaking.

And the elite jounin had nothing to say, the only function of them sitting here was to add momentum.

What's more, Hokage-sama made the decision himself, who would dare to say no?
The meeting ended almost without a word.

The crowd dispersed, all with serious expressions on their faces.

They all know very well that once the war starts, there is not a few years that cannot be ended.

The most worrying thing is, after the war between Konoha and Sand Yin, will other ninja villages take advantage of it.

Yun Yin, who did not participate in World War II, is the most worrying.

After decades of development, Yun Yin's strength has reached a level that is astonishing.

Even Yan Yin, who suffered heavy losses in World War II, now has a strength that cannot be underestimated.

In this situation, this war is likely to become a trigger, stirring up turmoil in the entire ninja world.

And the only thing they can do is to pray sincerely, hoping that the third ninja world war will not happen.

They really don't want to experience the pain of war.

Walking out of the Hokage Building, Uchiha Fugaku had mixed emotions in his heart.

In the meeting just now, he didn't say a word.

Of course, the same is true for Hinata Hizuru walking beside him.

Since Danzo's possession of Sharingan was exposed, the relationship between Uchiha and Hyuga's two powerful families has eased slightly.

After all, in a sense, they have a common enemy.

However, this kind of relaxation is limited to the high-level people of the two clans. For ordinary clansmen, they still loathe each other all the time.

At this moment, the two of them were walking together, wearing one black and one white attire, feeling a little strange for no reason.

But the two of them obviously didn't care about this, they were both thinking about the meeting.

As for this meeting, the two of them just felt aggrieved.

Without it, it's just because the two of them are too young, their qualifications are too shallow, and as the patriarch of the wealthy clan, they don't have the strength of shadow level.

Although the Nara Shikahisa and Ikacho clan chiefs on the long table are not Kage-level, they are members of the Sarutobi clan, and they are fundamentally different from them.
