Konoha begins with genocide

Konoha.

It was just dawn.

Konoha's conference room was already full of people, and the high-level officials in Konoha Village and the heads of some families all gathered here.

There were two documents on Sarutobi's desk.

One was the autopsy report, and the photo printed on the report was the Hyuga branch ninja who had been spying on Aya Hyuga before. According to the autopsy report, although the other party had several fatal wounds from sharp weapons, The real fatal injury was the brain, or in other words, the fatal injury caused by those sharp weapons was just to cover up, and the fatal injury to the brain was the caged bird of the Hyuga family.

The other is a document about the movement of villages such as Sagakure and Wuyin. It records some important secrets, and the general content is the movement of each ninja village.

"Hizuru, I want to know why Hinata Yuhito's body appeared outside the Hokage Building?"

After putting down the document in his hand, Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at Higashi Higashi who was sitting there.

Sitting beside Hiruzaru Sarutobi, Koharu Mitomon, Danzo Shimura, Danzo Orochimaru and others also looked at Higashi Hinata.

The meeting room was dead silent.

Hinata Hizuru was notified here by Anbu early in the morning. He thought he was planning to discuss something, but he didn't expect to hear the news that Hinata Yuhito had died outside the Hokage Building, and he died after the news of the cursed bird in the cage. , Hyuga Ryuzu has been immersed in indescribable shock.

The ninja from Hyuga's branch family has also been in contact with Hyuga Nichizu. He treats people kindly at Hyuga's house on weekdays, and gets along very harmoniously with the main family, and has won the trust of the main family.

But he died in front of the Hokage Building! ?He even died from the curse mark of the caged bird!

You must know that there has never been such a scandal in the Hyuga family for so many years.

"I am not sure."

After Hyuga Hyuzu finished speaking, he fell into silence, and at the same time, he began to think about what happened.

"Hehe, using the seal to control people of the same family, this kind of thing can only be done by you Hinata, maybe the other party intends to use this kind of action to express protest."

Uchiha Fugaku said coldly, you must know that in Konoha, the Hyuga clan has always claimed to be the second largest clan in Konoha, but in the eyes of the Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan is just touching porcelain Uchiha, I Uchiha Claiming to be the No. [-] family in Konoha is entirely because of the strength of his own family, and even one of the two founders of Konoha is Uchiha.

What is the Hyuga Clan?

"Oh, this is a matter of the Hyuga clan, don't bother Mr. Fuyue."

Hinata Hinata said lightly.

"Is the other party really planning to use his own death to coerce public opinion?"

Mito Menyan said lightly, as a ninja, in their opinion, strength is the most important thing, as long as there is strength, public opinion is nothing but something that can be manipulated at will.

"Don't forget that public opinion is a knife that kills without blood. Konoha Baiya was strong enough back then, isn't he still dead?"

Orochimaru said calmly, and at the same time looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura who was sitting there. Ordinary villagers didn't know what happened to Bai Fang's death, but Konoha's senior management knew it very well.

Back then, Hatake Sakumo was strong enough to rank among the top three in Konoha, but such a person died under the rumors, and as a Konoha executive, how could he not know the spread of rumors in Konoha Village?

If it's an ordinary ninja, maybe it's just some psychological pressure at most, but don't forget that the Hatake family is not only a ninja family, but also a samurai family, and naturally attaches great importance to the glory of the samurai.

Hearing Orochimaru's words, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face was a little unnatural, while Danzo Shimura remained expressionless, as if Shirato's death had nothing to do with him.

"Okay, now we are discussing the cause of Hyuga Yuhito's death, not other things."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth and brought the meeting back.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the meeting room.

"Come in."

As Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice fell, an Anbu pushed the door in.

"Master Hokage, according to the information from the border, the missions of Sand Hidden, Kiwi Hidden, and Rock Hidden have entered the territory of the Land of Fire. As for Yun Hidden, there is no information yet."

"Understood, let's go down."

Hearing this, Hiruzaru Sarutobi waved his hand to show that he understood.

"The delegations of Sagakure, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure are about to arrive at Konoha, what do you think?"

After Anbu left, Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at the crowd and asked.

Compared with the fact that the Kirigakure Sahiro Iwahito delegation came to Konoha for peace talks, Hyuga Yuhito's death is nothing more than a trivial matter.

"Since Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Sandgakure are about to reach Konoha, shouldn't it be time to confirm the Fourth Hokage?"

Shimura Danzo said lightly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

The expressions of the people in the meeting room couldn't help but change. Mitomon Yan and Zhuanzhu Koharu looked at each other and stopped talking. They just picked up the teacup and took a few sips, while Uchiha Fugaku's face was a little cloudy, after all. Konoha has always adopted a precautionary policy against Uchiha since the second generation of Naruto, and even Uchiha's ability to set up the Konoha Guard is completely the result of mutual compromise between the two parties.

As for Hyuga Hyuzu, when he heard that he planned to decide the candidate for the Fourth Hokage at this time, his eyes flashed.

At the same time, his gaze swept across the faces of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Orochimaru, Uchiha Fugaku and others.

Obviously, in his opinion, the death of Hyuga Yuhito should be a conspiracy against the Hyuga family. If such a thing happened at this time, the Hyuga family would naturally not be qualified to compete for the position of the Fourth Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "The matter of the fourth Hokage is not in a hurry, we should first make peace talks with Saken, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure, especially Yunyin, who currently has no Said, we have to guard against."

"Not urgent?"

Orochimaru's calm voice sounded: "Three generations, after this ninja world war, our Konoha has suffered heavy losses. Now the meeting is imminent. If Konoha does not show a new look, I am afraid it will leave a mark in the hearts of the other three major ninja villages." Make a bad impression."

"Three generations of adults! Orochimaru is right."

"Master Hokage! Think twice."

Someone couldn't help but speak, obviously they had received a hint of news in advance.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen was completely indifferent to this.

Uchiha Fugaku also seemed to understand that the position of Hokage could not be related to Uchiha, but he didn't mind muddying the pool of water, so he also said, "That's right, Sandaimu, you are already old, and you should also be responsible for the young people who will come later." Make way."

So I'm already old?

Hiruzaru Sarutobi couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart, and then the image of Minato couldn't help flashing through his mind.

Watergate……

Watergate! ?

Hiruzaru Sarutobi reacted abruptly, and he finally noticed something was wrong.

Minato is not in the village now!

Not only is Minato not there, but the master of Minato, Zilai, is also not in the village!

The power of Naruto seems to be weakened to the extreme at this moment.

Thinking of this, his eyes glanced at everyone present again, Shimura Danzo, Orochimaru, Mitomon Yan, Zanju Koharu, Hinata Hizuru, Uchiha Fugaku...

Shimura Danzo opened the eye that had been closed all the time, and said calmly: "I recommend Orochimaru to be the fourth generation, do you have any suitable candidates?"

As soon as this remark came out, there were constant voices of second opinion in the conference room.

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned his gaze to Mitomon Yan and Zhuanju Koharu, but the two kept their heads down and remained silent.

For this situation, the corners of Orochimaru's mouth were slightly raised.

"This matter, I said there is no rush!"

In the noisy conference room, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was full of no doubts.

"Sun Cut..."

Danzo still wanted to say a few words but was interrupted roughly by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Shut up, Danzo! Didn't you hear me when I told the fourth generation that it's not urgent!?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Shimura Danzo, and at this moment Danzo vaguely saw Ninuo's spirit.

I also understand that this time the selection of the fourth generation may be the end of the matter.
