Konoha Steady King

Hayama has only spoken twice in jounin meetings so far. The last time was to express his grievances for Hatake Sakumo, but this time it was to defend himself. Each time it involved a big deal.

Looking at the scarred Chinatsu Ide out of the corner of his eye, the anger in Hayama's heart rose to a critical point.Ninjas are also human beings, and they also have their own emotions and desires. Chinatsu Ide helped him a lot in the past, but now he is reduced to a prisoner. How can Hayama not be angry?

"Ignoring other things, I strongly doubt Chinatsu Ide's identity as a spy. She has no motive for becoming a spy."

Ye Shan spoke word by word, and his aura continued to show off, and it soon reached a frightening level.

"As far as I know, Chinatsu Ide is not a ninja in the village. She has absolutely no access to confidential matters. I would like to ask everyone here, what is the value of such a person becoming a spy?"

"Moreover, Totaka Ogata died on the battlefield as a hero who sacrificed his life for the village. Now the village is treating his orphan like this indiscriminately. Isn't it chilling?"

The words were sonorous and powerful, and many ninjas who had an old relationship with Totaka Ogata kept nodding their heads, agreeing with Hayama's words.

Although it is said that everything ends when a person dies, but Ogata Totaka died for the village. His orphan was actually judged as a spy just a few years ago, which caused a lot of sighs and emotions.

Danzo Shimura had anticipated this and said calmly: "The Anbu's arrests are naturally justified. Anyone who does something harmful to the village will be treated equally regardless of their identity."

"Besides, according to ANBU investigation, this person is not the so-called orphan of Todaka Ogata at all, but a genuine ninja from outside the village."

"Otherwise I wouldn't arrest you in such a formal occasion."

Hayama sneered in his heart. The Torture Department of Konoha Anbu is a completely dark organization. It can turn black into white and white into black. Danzo said these words as if he didn't say them. Anyway, he is one word. Don't believe it.

The other party was just using this as an excuse to ruin Baiyun Yeshan's reputation and cut off his idea of ​​getting involved in the power of the village.

I really don’t know what the second generation Hokage would look like if he saw with his own eyes that the high-level officials he held in his hands have now become moths.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and his group did this not once or twice. Back then, Hatake Sakumo just made some mistakes in executing the mission, and suddenly rumors spread in the village, forcing him to resign as the head of the ANBU. Suicide at home!

Others might forget these things, but Ye Shan kept them firmly in his heart and never dared to forget them for a moment!

"Clear rewards and punishments are a necessary means for the village to maintain unity and rule. If Danzo-sama can provide convincing evidence, I have nothing to say."

Ye Shan's words caused an uproar in the conference room. Many people's eyes flickered, thinking that Ye Shan had said the wrong thing.

Shimura Danzo is a man of great foresight. If he doesn't take action, he will do it. Once he takes action, it will be like thunder, link after link, leaving no room for turning.

Uchiha Fugaku was very worried and kept winking at Hayama, mistakenly thinking that Hayama said the wrong thing in agitated mood.

As everyone knows, Hayama has his own plans. He is not a person who is used to sitting back and waiting for death. If Danzo Shimura wants to throw dirty water on him, he must be prepared for the backlash.

Danzo Shimura was waiting for Hayama's words. After hearing this, he felt happy. He took out a document from his arms indifferently, threw it on the table, and said in a cold voice: "The evidence is here, do you want to come forward?" come and see?"

At this moment, Uchiha Fugaku stood up and said: "These evidences are just one-sided words from the Anbu, and it is difficult to guarantee their authenticity. Moreover, the matter involves jounin in the village. I think it should be investigated jointly by multiple parties. People are convinced.”

"There are several ninjas in the Uchiha clan who specialize in torture. I wonder what Danzo-sama wants?"

Of course, the Uchiha clan must protect Hayama to the death. Since Hayama joined Uchiha's chariot, the entire family has taken on a different kind of vitality, and it is impossible to sit back and watch the other party suffer.

As long as Danzo Shimura nods and agrees, the Uchiha clan has a hundred ways to make the witness disappear from the world. When the time comes, there will be no evidence, and the matter will be over.

But something surprising happened to everyone. Before Danzo Shimura could speak, the person involved, Hayama, rejected Uchiha Fugaku's proposal.

"No, how about just letting me take a look at this evidence?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shan's body flashed with lightning and turned into a thunder. He came to the rostrum like a ghost and grabbed the document.

Many elderly ninjas have red eyes. Hayama's grenade escape technique is the secret technique that Hatake Sakumo has been powerful in the ninja world for more than ten years. I didn't expect to see it here again today, and I was deeply moved.

Danzo Shimura's hands hidden in his sleeves were secretly pinching the seals, but his face had a calm expression, wary of Hayama's sudden outburst.

Hayama grabbed the file, but did not open it immediately. Instead, he turned his eyes to Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been silent.

"Lord Hokage, clear rewards and punishments are necessary to maintain the rule of the village. Do you agree?"

A trace of hesitation appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face. He couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Hayama's gourd, and he didn't dare to speak rashly.

Uchiha Fugaku turned around and faced the ninjas in the conference room and said: "Clear rewards and punishments are absolutely the first factor in safeguarding the interests of the village. In fact, not only the village must do this, but all of our colleagues must also do this."

"Let's not talk about it far, let's just talk about the Uchiha clan. Since the Warring States Period, there have been clear regulations in the clan. Those who have merit must be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes must be punished. For this reason, the policy of three rewards and five punishments has been implemented in the clan to this day. , this is also the secret of Uchiha’s everlasting prosperity.”

"You are all well-known figures, in charge of various departments in the village. In your daily work, you are naturally very aware of the importance of clear rewards and punishments. Only by truly clearing rewards and punishments can the ninjas under your command be able to Stay motivated while staying true to your limits.”

"Furthermore, Hokage-sama has always done a very good job in this matter since he came here. Hokage-sama is a Hokage who knows rewards and punishments, don't you think so?"

All the ninjas in the conference room, whether sincerely or not, all nodded in agreement, and there was a chorus of agreement.

Although he didn't know Hayama's plan, Uchiha Fugaku chose to support him without hesitation.

The Third Hokage was dissatisfied with Uchiha Fugaku's method of inciting everyone's emotions, but on the surface he said righteously: "Reward for meritorious deeds and punishment for delinquency has always been a strictly implemented policy in the village. Everyone is treated equally. Please forgive me for this." rest assured."

Hayama showed a sly smile, threw the document in his hand on the table, and said, "I won't read this evidence. I wonder what crime Danzo-sama wants to sentence me to?"

There was silence in the conference room of Noda. Everyone looked at Ye Shan with wide eyes and disbelief, wondering why he would plead guilty.

Danzo Shimura had a sullen face, and he was also confused about the other party's plan, but he had to shoot: "According to regulations, the crime of harboring will be punished by a fine of one million and three months in prison!"

Hayama smiled slightly, took off the forehead protector he wore on his forehead, placed it on the table, hunched over and allowed the two ANBU to hold him.

Just when the ninjas thought the matter was over, the words in Hayama's mouth exploded like thunder.

"Danzo-sama punished me for my fault. I wonder how the village will reward Hatake Sakumo-sama for his merits?"

Uchiha Fugaku reacted very quickly. When everyone was in a daze, he did not care about his dignity. He came to the rostrum in a flash and raised his arms with an angry expression: "Yes, Lord Sakumo has made great achievements in fighting for the village through life and death. The village must How to reward him?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was ashen, he never expected that Hayama's trap was also waiting for him.What the village did about Sakumo Hatake was indeed unethical, but speaking out so blatantly was a complete loss of face, and there was no room for turning around.

Shimura Danzo said with a cold face: "Hatake Sakumo's matter has long since passed. Right and wrong should be determined by people's hearts. If you bring it up now, you are just trying to provoke people's feelings!"

"Humph!"

Hayama snorted coldly, the majestic chakra in his body began to circulate, and dazzling lightning bloomed in the conference room, making the weak ninja's legs weaken slightly.

"Hatake Sakumo is my mentor and has shown me the kindness to rebuild. I, Baiyun Yeshan, cannot repay this kindness even if I am shattered to pieces!"

"Now that things have happened, Danzo-sama is still saying that I am stirring up people's hearts. Can I think that the master-student relationship is not worth mentioning in the village?"

"Hatake Sakumo-sama will take the lead when encountering a battle and climb to capture the flag; when retreating, he will set an example and take the overall situation into consideration. He has worked hard for the development of the village throughout his life and has made astonishing military exploits. Do you want me to list these military exploits?"

Many ninjas sitting below heard Hayama's words and saw the familiar thunder escape technique on his body, and the past could not help but come to mind, thinking of the man who was as thin as a mountain but as majestic as a mountain.Some of the ninjas who had been favored by Hatake Sakumo stood up and supported Hayama's approach.

The friendship that went through life and death together on the battlefield is stronger than gold, harder than iron, and can withstand the test of time. Even if Hatake Sakumo died several years ago, it still remains in the hearts of the ninjas.

Danzo Shimura's face alternated between blue and red, and he was furious in his heart.Hayama's move was simply a stroke of genius. Regardless of whether he would be imprisoned for three months, he would still be invincible.

A ninja who has outstanding strength and knows how to repay his master is simply a role model among ninjas. Who wouldn't want to have such a disciple?

Moreover, Ye Shan has not opened the evidence at all. Whether his crime of covering up is really intriguing is intriguing.

This is also the cleverness of Ye Shan. He accepted the punishment from the village and would rather bear the crime that could never be washed away for the rest of his life to overturn the case of his late mentor. No matter what the outcome, a character who knows how to repay kindness has been established.

In fact, since Yamashiro Tatsu's death, Hayama has completely broken with Konoha in his heart, and he will no longer think about gaining power through legitimate means.As long as these four people don't die, he, Baiyun Yeshan, would rather see the gate than join in with them.

The matter of Hatake Sakumo will always be a thorn in Hayama's heart, a pain point that makes him tossing and turning at night and unable to fall asleep. Today he will take it back with interest!

Even if Chinatsu Ide wasn't involved today, Hayama would have launched an attack in the near future, not for anything else but to give Hatake Sakumo a good name after his death!

The meeting room was noisy, with some indifferent, some with angry expressions, and some with red faces arguing. It was like a vegetable market.

At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a pale and bloodless ninja walked in. It was Orochimaru, the fourth Hokage appointed by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hey, what's going on? Everyone seems happy?"

The voices in the conference room were stagnant, and the fear of this person was palpable.

Others were afraid of Orochimaru, but Hayama was not. After glancing at him, he said, "Get out."

Orochimaru laughed evilly, swung his body to Hayama's side, and was about to slap him with one hand.Hayama snorted coldly and disappeared in a flash of lightning. When he reappeared behind Orochimaru, a cold and bloodthirsty voice followed.

"Those who are late to the meeting are not eligible to participate in the meeting again. You don't know that, right?"

A hand filled with lightning pressed on Orochimaru's body, and a crackling sound resounded throughout the conference room.

"Don't be angry, Hayama-kun."

A voice came from behind Ye Shan, and the person he was holding down was a clone.

Ye Shan retracted his hand indifferently, as if he was not the one who attacked just now, and said: "You know why you still don't go out?"

"Haha, I just came to inform Mr. Hokage that a distinguished guest has arrived in the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and was about to stand up and leave this place of right and wrong, but he didn't want Hayama's words to interrupt him.

"Nothing is more important than what we are discussing at the moment. Even if the Daimyo comes, we have to wait patiently!"

Changes will happen later. Once things are pushed back, it will be impossible to have such a good opportunity.

Today, Hayama will pull out the thorn in his heart and clear Hatake Sakumo's name.
