Konoha: The Strong Man Who Walked Out of the Grave

Chapter 76 The Temptation of Returning to the Village

"Oh, oh, how long until we get to Konoha?"

Toyoda Hideyoshi, the retainer of the Fire Nation Daimyo, asked Sarutobi Asuma on the side with an impatient look on his face.

Originally, at this time, he should be enjoying being fanned by beautiful women and eating ice-cold watermelon at home, but instead he was appointed by the Daimyo to go to Konoha as a representative of the Land of Fire.

The reason is simply that Asuma Sarutobi, one of the twelve guardian ninjas, said something bad about the Uchiha clan in front of the daimyo, and specifically named a person named Uchiha Yusuke.

He didn't know what was wrong with the daimyo, but he actually asked him to go to Konoha on behalf of the Fire Country to beat up the Uchiha clan and Uchiha Yusuke because of Sarutobi Asuma's words.

In his opinion, it would be enough to just send any official to do this kind of thing, and it was not necessary for him to do it, but he felt it was useless, and it would only be useful if the daimyo thought it was useful.

Therefore, Toyoda Hideyoshi reluctantly followed Sarutobi Asuma from the capital on the road to Konoha.

"We're almost there, there should be half a day left, Hideyoshi-sama."

Sarutobi Asuma said with a forced smile.

If you hadn't been procrastinating, we would have been here long ago, idiot!

Although Asuma Sarutobi had scolded Hideyoshi Toyoda countless times in his heart, on the surface Asuma Sarutobi was quite good at kung fu.

"Half a day? It's really troublesome. I'll take a nap first and call me when you get there."

Toyoda Hideyoshi complained and dozed off directly on the sedan chair.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Asuma endured his discomfort, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a long puff before adjusting his mood and continued on his way.

After being reprimanded by his father, he ran to the capital of Fire Country to meet the Daimyo in anger. After a lot of nonsense with the Daimyo, the Daimyo finally agreed to send a representative back to the village with him to punish the Uchiha clan.

As the son of the Hokage, he has a thorough understanding of the relationship between the Fire Country and Konoha.

Although he didn't know the reason, the relationship between all ninja villages and the countries they were affiliated to was never equal.

The shadow of the hidden village and the daimyo of the great country are not the same status at all.

He had heard from his father that the Daimyo of the Fire Country had the ability to influence the position of the Hokage. Take Konoha as an example. To the Fire Country, Konoha is like one of their barracks, although there is a Hokage. Manage all matters in Konoha, but Konoha is so big, how many resources can be used?If there was no assistance from the Fire Nation, it might not be long before Konoha wouldn't even be able to get the iron to make kunai.

If the Fire Country Daimyo really insists on changing Konoha's Hokage, he doesn't need to do anything else. He only needs to cut off all supplies to Konoha, and Konoha's Hokage will not be able to withstand the pressure from the village and abdicate on his own.

Of course, doing so is not without risks, and it is likely to provoke resistance from Konoha.Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, the Daimyo of the Fire Country would not take the risk and ask Konoha to change the Hokage.

Sarutobi Asuma had no other ideas. He just wanted Uchiha Yusuke to die. It would be best to destroy the Uchiha clan as well.Anyway, he knew that his father had always had this plan, so he just regarded it as a gift from his son to his father.

Along the way, he thought of no less than ten ways for Uchiha Yusuke to die. Every time he thought that after he returned to the village, the arrogant Uchiha Yusuke would be plotted to death by him, he couldn't wait to return to the village as soon as possible.

Stop and go, half a day passes in the blink of an eye.

By the time Sarutobi Asuma and the others arrived in front of the gate of Konoha, it was already evening.

As soon as he arrived at the gate, Sarutobi Asuma was stunned.

When did Konoha have so many decorations on its walls?They are all heads!

"Is it there?"

Feeling that the sedan below him was no longer moving, Toyoda Hideyoshi opened his eyes sleepily. It was better not to open his eyes. When he opened his eyes at an upward angle, he could just see the human head hanging on the wall of Konoha. .

"Mom!"

He had never seen such a scene before, and he was so frightened that he fell off the sedan.

"Lord Hideyoshi, are you okay?"

Sarutobi Asuma quickly helped Toyoda Hideyoshi up from the ground.

"Then, what are those? Has Konoha gone to war with other villages again? Why didn't I receive any news?"

Toyoda Hideyoshi asked three times in succession, but how could Sarutobi Asuma know? He was also curious.

"Hey, you two look strange. What's up with those heads hanging on the city wall?"

Sarutobi Asuma asked the two ninjas guarding the gate.

"who are you?"

The two of them did not know Sarutobi Asuma. Although they saw Sarutobi Asma wearing a Konoha forehead protector, who said that the person wearing a Konoha forehead protector must be a Konoha ninja?

"I am Sarutobi Asuma, and this is Toyoda Hideyoshi, who represents the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."

Sarutobi Asuma announced his identity, and also mentioned Toyota Hideyoshi.

"Sarutobi Asuma? Sarutobi Hiruzen's son?"

When one person heard this, he blurted out that it was Sarutobi Hiruzen's real name.

"You bastard!"

Although he and his father are usually very difficult to deal with, after all, his father is the Hokage of Konoha. When did the two ninjas who were guarding the door have to call him by his first name?

"Haha, you dare to come back, I really belong to you."

One person laughed sarcastically.

"What do you mean?!"

Sarutobi Asuma immediately became popular!

"What do you mean? Haha, wouldn't you know it if you entered the village yourself?"

After the man finished speaking, he stopped talking to Sarutobi Asuma and continued to stand aside like a piece of wood as a doorman.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Asuma didn't bother to say anything more to the "miscellaneous fish" in front of him.

"Lord Hideyoshi, I'm sorry for making you laugh."

"Huh, what a rude person."

Hideyoshi Toyoda flicked his sleeves and entered Konoha with a displeased look on his face, followed closely by Sarutobi Asuma.

After Sarutobi Asuma apologized, Toyoda Hideyoshi's face looked better.

"Hideyoshi-sama, that's the Konoha Building. My father works there on weekdays. Please come with me."

Sarutobi Asuma pointed at Konoha's landmark building and said.

"Are you still working at this hour? The Third Hokage is still working so hard at such an old age. It's really admirable."

On the surface, Toyoda Hideyoshi praised Sarutobi Hiruzen, but in his heart he was scolding Sarutobi Hiruzen for being evil. If those in power don't enjoy themselves, then what are they doing in power?It is better to go home and farm.

"Haha, Hideyoshi-sama is so complimentary."

Sarutobi Asuma showed humility and led the way, leading Hideyoshi Toyoda straight to the Konoha Building.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and Asuma Sarutobi finally brought Hideyoshi Toyoda to the front of the Konoha Building.With just a few more steps, they would be able to enter the Konoha Building.

Just when they reached the door of Konoha Building, Sarutobi Asuma discovered that two iron cages had appeared at the door of Konoha Building at some point.

Just when he wanted to ask the two people next to him what was going on, Sarutobi Asuma's pupils suddenly dilated, and he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

In that cage was his father Hiruzen Sarutobi!
