Konoha: This Uchiha is very stubborn

The next morning.

After finishing his morning classes, Toshiro Uchiha was shopping at a food store in his family.

Yesterday I also enjoyed a sumptuous meal at Sister Meixiang's house.

But today I am preparing for lunch and dinner. It reminded him of the good old days when he was being fed. Sure enough, it makes sense that people who were taken care of in their previous lives, had their laps cuddled, and so on, are so popular.

"Aunt Yuriko! Your pork is not very fresh! Change it to beef. Yes! This is the beef rib, weighing 10 pounds."

"Toshiro, I'm not bragging to you! Today's beef was just slaughtered and delivered in less than two hours. If you miss today, you won't have such fresh ingredients next time!"

"Oh! Then let's get 20 pounds!"

"You are really discerning, so I will give you this spinach for free! Chenghui is 3,000 taels, and you will get rid of the change!"

When it comes to prices in the ninja world, they are quite expensive. 20 kilograms of beef costs nearly 3,000 taels. You know, in the ninja supplies store, the price of a bitter object is only 800 taels, and the shuriken only costs 200 taels.

"Aunt Yuriko is the one who knows how to do business. Business will definitely be more prosperous in the future!"

"Hahaha! You're so good at talking! I'm giving you this spring onion for free!"

"thank you!"

While chatting with Aunt Yuriko, the proprietress of the food store. While listening with open ears, the adults were talking on the street outside.

"Have you heard? I heard that a ninja violated the village's rules, causing the mission to fail and causing great losses to the Fire Country?"

A woman who got up early to buy groceries said mysteriously to her companions.

"Really? If something like this happens, Master Hokage will definitely punish him!"

"I heard it too! I heard it too! But I heard that the ninja is Hatake Sakumo, the White Fang!"

Before the woman who spoke first could comment. After hearing this, a housewife nearby who was buying fish quickly interjected.

"White Fang! That's impossible! Everyone says he is the hero of the village and has saved many companions!"

"It's true! I heard a lot of people talking about this here today."

At this time, the owner of the vegetable shop couldn't help but interject. He also heard a lot of discussions this morning, all discussing this matter. The accounts are all very similar. The hero of Konoha is known as the 'White Fang of Konoha', Sakumo Hatake failed in his mission and caused great losses to the Land of Fire.

[Is it time for this to happen? But the people behind the scenes are really...]

Toshiro complained secretly.

That is, in the world of Naruto, these natives have not been bombarded with information. Having been influenced by the Internet world in my previous life, such a simple method of controlling public opinion is simply unsightly.

For a ninja of Hatake Sakumo's caliber, the tasks he performed would be revealed casually, which is simply hilarious. Toshiro, who had studied in a ninja school for two years and was familiar with the ninja's confidentiality system, knew how tricky this was.

At this time, in the Hokage Building in Konoha, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had just arrived at work. Received a report from a subordinate.

After reading this document at a glance. The Sandaime Hokage frowned deeply, thought for a moment, and called his ANBU.

"Go to the roots! Assist the Hokage to Shimura Danzo. Please come here!"

After giving the order calmly, he ignored his subordinates who left instantly. Instead, he took a deep breath of cigarette and thought quietly.

The report just now was sent by the department in the Hokage's office that monitors public opinion trends in the village.

Early in the morning, they noticed this unusual direction of public opinion. Although he didn't know who was secretly guiding him, his subordinates who were somewhat aware of the sensitivity of such matters did not dare to be careless. He quickly wrote a report and submitted it to the Hokage for inspection.

The Sandaime Hokage was not kept waiting for too long. In less than 20 minutes, the door to the Hokage's office was pushed open from the outside.

The person who walked in was a middle-aged man in his late fifties.

A hedgehog with messy hair and a white bandage on his forehead. The bandage went down diagonally, covering his injured right eye. Only the left eye was exposed, an eye as sharp as a vulture, staring at the Sandaime Hokage and where he sat.

"Danzo! What do you want to do? To mobilize public opinion without authorization and attack the meritorious Jonin in the village?"

Without waiting for the man to speak, the Sandaime Hokage took the lead and sternly questioned the visitor.

"Do you know what a bad impact this will have on the heroes in the village?"

"Taking unauthorized action! Do you still have eyes for me, the Hokage?"

Before anyone could take a seat, the Sandaime Hokage's barrage of questions came out. As if he wanted to express the anger in his heart in this way.

"Is he the hero of the village? Does the damage he caused to the village and the Fire Country this time deserve the title of hero?"

"The real heroes of the village are those who sacrifice everything in secret to protect peace and protect the village! Not him, Sakumo Hatake!"

The leader of the root, Hokage, assists Danzo Shimura, who claims to be the secret guardian of Konoha Village, without any stage fright. The answer was stiff and the Sandaime Hokage was speechless for a moment.

[Don’t you understand yet? Garlic Mountain! Peace in Konoha cannot be maintained by just saying nice things. The peace in Konoha has always been maintained by 'our' silent sacrifices. 】

He looked in front of him, sitting behind the Hokage's desk, Sarutobi Hiruzen wearing a Hokage hat.

Shimura Danzo thought with ups and downs of thoughts.

"That's not the reason why you sent people to secretly slander him. You should know that the reason why he failed in this mission was to save the lives of his companions!"

"It's ridiculous to save the lives of your companions! As a ninja, it is your duty to complete the mission! But he abandoned his duty and went to rescue his so-called companions! Isn't it inevitable for a ninja to make sacrifices in the process of completing his mission? "

"If everyone learns from him, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"The task completion rate in the village will plummet! If things go on like this, the village will receive fewer and fewer commissions! Can you accept such consequences?"

I never expected that my former companion would tell such a great truth. For a moment, the Sandaime Hokage was also in a dilemma. Which is more important, tasks or companions? The Sandaime Hokage was also hesitant for a moment.

"Hiruzen, Hatake Sakumoge is a ninja who saves his companions. His reputation has grown over the years, and even the three ninjas have to avoid his reputation!"
