Naruto who made a lot of money at the beginning
39. The center of the storm
As the head of a village, the Third Hokage is very troubled now. He sat in the Hokage's office with a helpless expression and his forehead, listening to the reports from the people below. There was a pipe in his mouth, blowing out circles of smoke from time to time.
In the past few days, he had sucked off a month's worth of food, and Bipazi had already talked to him several times.
In fact, the news that Hatake Sakumo brought to him after his return two days ago was really too shocking.
The content of the S-class mission was leaked.
The S-class mission that Sakumo carried out this time was almost a narrow escape. He was completely targeted. The entire White Fang team was almost wiped out. White Fang himself was also covered in wounds and almost returned with a dying body. .
The entire White Fang team, they are all elite ninjas. Any one of them is a unique ninja, the backbone of the next generation in the village, and the most precious asset in the village. If you just say that, it will be gone. In addition, Hatake Sakumo, the top assassin ninja in the ninja world, was seriously injured.
Although the third generation was heartbroken, they couldn't help but think a lot.
The internal trends in the village were leaked, and there was a traitor in the village. This is what Sandai least wants to hear, but this is the only way to explain it. The third generation frowned deeply as he thought about this, and a few wrinkles appeared on his originally rough forehead.
The key to this task was to hand it over to Sakumo himself. Fortunately, Hatake Sakumo trusted him, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous, but after all, he also had an unshirkable responsibility.
It's just that this matter was kept closely guarded from beginning to end, and almost no third person except himself and Sakumo knew about it. How was the information leaked? The third generation really couldn’t figure it out.
The third person...the third person?
The information was given to him by him, could it be...him?
No, not possible. The Third Hokage shook his head, with more wrinkles on his forehead. Only it couldn't be him, everything he did was for Konoha. He had sacrificed so much for Konoha, and he couldn't doubt without evidence.
If even he betrays Konoha...then Konoha will really be doomed.
Hope this is all just an accident.
Anyway, talk to him first.
The top secret S-class missions have been leaked, but what about other missions? Once word spreads, what will other ninjas in the village think?
It cannot be spread out, and the news must be completely blocked.
He's the best at this.
This matter involved jinchūriki from two villages and more than three villages, and the scope involved was really too great. Even if the Third Generation knew that the Suna Ninja was involved, Konoha couldn't openly go to settle the score with the Suna Ninja.
It had only been a few years since the Second Ninja War. Although it was peaceful on the surface, in fact, all the major ninja villages were secretly holding back their anger. If it was not handled well, it could easily trigger another Ninja War. No matter what, Konoha cannot be the source of the war. Moreover, it is okay to say that it is just a Suna ninja, plus the Iwa ninja and Kumo ninja... once they enter a war and start a war with multiple ninja villages at the same time, even Konoha, which is stronger than it is now, cannot bear it.
You can only suffer a dumb loss.
The first priority now is to catch the leaker, otherwise Konoha will have no secrets in front of other ninja villages.
Compared with these incidents, the recent rumors against White Fang in the village seemed inconsequential.
When the protesters gathered at the Hokage's office, the third generation was worried about dealing with the subsequent events.
He didn't pay much attention to the arrival of the villagers. In the hope that the rumors would fade away soon, he just made some hasty assurances with the villagers to appease their emotions.
The third generation also has some careful thoughts here. He needs to conceal the fact that the S-class mission information has been leaked. Then the villagers' suspicion is the best excuse to divert attention. So he gave an ambiguous answer.
Compared with the overall interests of the village, sacrificing a little personal reputation is nothing. I believe Sakumo will understand him.
After the Third Hokage's simple reassurance, the villagers left with doubts, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Even if you are framed now, it will be fine if you clarify it after some time. The Third Hokage thought this, then ignored it and continued to suffer from a headache.
It would be nice if everything really ended here.
If only time could really dissipate the rumors.
If only everything was as envisioned by the third generation.
It would be fine if that person didn't come forward...
Somewhere in Konoha Village, there is a base buried deep underground under the leafy trees. In the darkness, accompanied by the rhythmic tapping of wooden sticks on the ground, an old voice slowly sounded.
Although the voice was old, it was very sonorous and powerful. If it didn't have the peculiar hoarseness of an old man, it wouldn't be surprising at all to be called a middle-aged man.
"Everything is ready, it's time for you to appear."
"Yes..." an indifferent voice without any emotion echoed.
"Remember, don't let me down, otherwise..."
"Yes."
With a few "swish" sounds, the owner of the indifferent voice disappeared into the darkness.
When it was determined that the man was gone, the old voice sounded again, as if talking to himself or answering someone.
"I'm doing this for the best of Konoha."
...
Repeatedly and repeatedly.
"Everything I did was for Konoha! I was right!" In the end, the firm voice indicated the other party's determination.
"Konoha needs a right leader. And Sarutobi is too weak."
"He is already old."
On the day after the villagers returned from the Third Generation, Hatake Sakumo, a former member of the White Fang Team and one of the two protagonists in the version of the failed mission that was spread by the villagers, gave up the mission just to save him - Odagiri Jean Taro. Appeared in everyone's sight!
He "righteously" stood up and accused Sakumo in front of everyone. He should not have given up the mission to save him, and should not have allowed Konoha to suffer losses because of him.
He was a ninja who had been prepared for a long time and was willing to die for Konoha.
His accusation was tantamount to a sharp knife, which penetrated deeply into Sakumo's back at the most critical moment.
The villagers completely erupted.
No one doubted the authenticity of the incident anymore.
It's like a little firewood lighting up dry wood and igniting the entire grassland. The brewing storm took complete shape at this moment, and it became out of control from this moment on.
In the end, the ambiguous comfort of the three generations did not have the slightest effect. Under the rhythm of thoughtful people, it exceeded everyone's expectations and everything developed in an uncontrollable direction.
Hatake Sakumo!
During the mission, he gave up the mission in order to save his companions, causing Konoha to suffer heavy losses.
The biggest...sinner in Konoha Village!
By the time Sandai woke up and tried to stop it, it was already too late.
The deal is done!
