Card lottery starting from Konoha

"Teacher, I heard that you are going to be Hokage."

In a training ground in Konoha, Obito said to Namikaze Minato carelessly.

Kakashi and Harano Lin looked over at the same time, with doubts in their eyes.

Minato smiled bitterly and said: "They are all rumors. Don't take them seriously. This is false news deliberately spread by hostile forces in order to disturb the current stability of Konoha."

Rumors have troubled him for a long time. During this period, not only the research on sealing techniques had achieved little results, but even the research on Flying Thunder God had reached a bottleneck.

To Minato, the sudden rumors seemed like an inevitable disaster.

Although he dreams of becoming Hokage in the future, he is somewhat self-aware that he is not yet qualified to compete for the position of Hokage.

At the very least, he didn't have a successful record, and he didn't have a battle that could make the ninja world famous and make the world remember his name.

Now when Minato was walking in the village, villagers would pop up from time to time and ask him if he was about to inherit the position of Hokage.

It has left him with no time to concentrate on practicing.

"You three get ready, we will carry out a mission today."

"Okay, teacher."

A smile appeared on Minato's face, and there was a sudden movement in his heart, and he said: "Kakashi, is there something wrong? I see you are a little depressed."

"Teacher, Kakashi always looks like this."

"Okay Obito, you and Lin go first. I have a few words to say to Kakashi."

A smile suddenly appeared on Obito's face, his head was like a chicken pecking at rice, and he hurriedly agreed.

This was an opportunity to be alone with Lin. For Obito, it felt like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he was not interested in hearing Kakashi's gossip.

Lin glanced at Kakashi worriedly and said, "Okay teacher, Obito, let's go."

"Haha, okay, teacher, don't worry about the two of us, spend more time enlightening Kakashi."

As he spoke, Obito dragged Lin away quickly, as if he was afraid that Minato would regret it.

Minato's face was full of helplessness, and the feelings between his three disciples also gave him a headache.

Obito obviously has a soft spot for Lin, but Lin has a secret affection for Kakashi, and Kakashi is completely immersed in the various shocks of his father's death.

"Kakashi, do you have something to say?"

"No, teacher."

"Don't lie to me. You are my disciple. Something has been wrong these past few days. Is it because of the rumors?"

Now the entire Fire Country is full of dirty information about the Third Hokage and Danzo.

Among them is the one about Hatake Sakumo. It is said that Danzo teamed up with the Third Hokage to create rumors and force Hatake Sakumo to commit suicide.

Various versions are abuzz in Konohagakure, and despite the village's efforts to curb it, many can still be heard.

As the son of Hatake Sakumo, Kakashi would naturally doubt his father's suicide.

Kakashi looked at Minato in surprise and said: "Teacher, did you say that my father's death back then was really a conspiracy by Konoha's top brass? Why didn't the top brass come out to stop these rumors?"

Minato was stunned for a moment. From his current perspective, Hatake Sakumo's death was obviously a conspiracy.

A conspiracy planned by Danzo and acquiesced by the Third Hokage. It is said that everyone makes money and destroys bones. Hatake Sakumo was almost recognized as the candidate for the Fourth Hokage, even defeating the Konoha Sannin.

After thinking about it, only two words appeared in Minato's mind, power. The top management of Konoha was unwilling to hand over the power in their hands.

Although these were just his guesses, he couldn't tell Kakashi.

"Kakashi, these are just rumors, used by hostile forces to destroy the internal unity of Konoha. You are still young and have not experienced much.

The cruelty of the ninja world is beyond your imagination, and sometimes what you hear may not be true.

Moreover, your father is a strong-willed and excellent ninja, and he will not commit suicide just because of a few rumors from the villagers.

He may have some difficulties that he cannot disclose to the outside world, but I believe your father must want you to become an excellent ninja. "

Kakashi nodded, but in his heart he began to doubt what Konoha's higher-ups were doing, and his originally determined heart began to become confused.

In the Country of Yu, a hot spring hotel, Aoki's comfortable hot spring was surrounded by seven or eight women who had lost their footing.

"Mr. Kaneda, you must have seen a lot of secrets in the ninja world through your travels. Tell us about it and let us gain knowledge."

Aoki squinted his eyes and opened them, and said: "Okay, I have indeed seen a lot of dirty things in the ninja world, and I will tell you one today.

You must have heard the previous rumors about Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo's suicide. "

"I've heard of this. I heard that Danzo deliberately framed it. The Third Hokage stood by and watched, and rumors were running rampant in the village.

Hatake Sakumo couldn't stand the rumors and committed suicide, which was a pity for a powerful ninja in Konoha. "

"Haha, I do have some insight, but it's just what others say. Although these rumors are somewhat true, they don't touch the essence.

Who is White Fang of Konoha? A strong man who has experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood, overwhelming the Sannin of Konoha. Such a person would commit suicide just because of a few rumors?

The real reason was that White Fang saw through the corruption of Konoha's top management, and his faith collapsed overnight.

The Konoha he defended before was just a plaything for a few senior officials to protect their own rights.

The Will of Fire is nothing more than a brainwashing tool developed by the Third Generation to win over people's hearts.

Seeing this, Hatake Sakumo became desperate and felt that there was no hope for the future, so he chose to commit suicide.

The final reason is that the decay of Konoha's top management has reached the point where even Konoha White Fang can no longer see hope.

The third generation was jealous of talents and feared that a younger generation of ninjas would replace them, so they united with Danzo to use conspiracy and tricks to kill Konoha's genius ninjas.

It was after seeing this that White Fang chose to commit suicide, because he saw no hope in Konoha, only endless despair. "

"Mr. Kaneda is indeed very knowledgeable. These are things we never thought of before."

"Haha, I also know a lot of Konoha's secrets. Since I met you today, I will tell you about them.

It's getting late now, so I asked the hotel to prepare a seafood dinner, and we happened to chat while eating.

I heard that the seafood in Yuno Kuni is caught from the sea on the same day. "

Several people looked at each other and said with a smile on their faces: "We also want to hear the secrets of Konoha. I heard that Konoha is now vigorously refuting rumors and searching for the source. Mr. Kaneda should be careful."

"Haha, there is no need. Konoha has long been responsible for clearing the roots of these rumors. With the death of Danzo, its vitality has been severely damaged, and a large number of root elites have been killed.

You all should know Danzo, the leader of the original Konoha Roots, who was later killed in the Roots base. "

"I've heard of it, but I don't know who is so powerful that he can kill Danzo and a group of root elites."

"Let's go get something to eat first. I know some inside information, so I can tell you about it."

"Does Mr. Kaneda still know these secrets?"

"Of course, I have known for 500 years before and 500 years after. There is really nothing in the ninja world that I don't know, including all kinds of secrets.

Danzo's death is no secret to me. "
