"Asakawa Naoki."

In the conference room, hundreds of Konoha jonin looked towards the entrance.

There, a slender figure stepped halfway into the doorway, with a harmless smile on his face.

"Asakawa jonin, come in quickly." A ninja urged:

"The jonin meeting is about to begin."

Although Asakawa Naoki often missed the jonin meetings because he was often on missions and didn't want to waste time attending meaningless meetings.

But his presence in Konoha was not low.

The identity of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki alone was enough to attract attention, not to mention the many difficult tasks he completed.

Asakawa Naoki and Namikaze Minato were almost the strongest genius ninjas of the younger generation of Konoha.

Even the ninja geniuses of this generation of Konoha, such as Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hiashi, Aburame Shiwei, Akimichi Choza, etc., had to avoid their edge.

Therefore, although he is still young and has just become an adult, no one in Konoha can underestimate Naoki Asakawa.

"Come in, Naoki." Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded.

For some reason, he always felt that Naoki Asakawa had some bad intentions this time.

"Okay, Hokage-sama."

Naoki Asakawa walked into the conference room. In addition to him, there were teammates such as Uchiha Mikoto, Uzumaki Kushina, Nawaki and Masamura Oki.

In these years, in addition to Mikoto and Kushina who were promoted early based on their strength, Nawaki and Masamura Oki also accumulated a lot of mission experience and were promoted to jonin, and naturally had the qualifications to participate in the jonin meeting.

Except for Namikaze Minato who was still doing tasks outside, all the disciples of the three ninjas who were promoted to jonin were here.

As everyone entered one after another, although it was a bit unexpected, it did not surprise the jonin present.

At most, I just sighed that the three ninjas of Konoha were not only powerful, but also taught well. More than half of the nine disciples became jonin.

But as the next three people entered the meeting room, even Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo couldn't help shrinking their pupils.

Because the three people following Asakawa Naoki and others were the three ninjas of Konoha!

"Old man, I'm back!" Jiraiya greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen from a distance and laughed:

"Haha, we should be able to attend the jonin meeting, right?"

In fact, the three ninjas of Konoha left Konoha without the consent of the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, nor did they leave because of a mission.

In a sense, the three ninjas can be regarded as defecting from Konoha.

But if it is really announced that the three ninjas of Konoha defected from Konoha, I'm afraid Konoha will become a joke in the ninja world the next day.

So regarding the three ninjas of Konoha leaving Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen claimed that they were carrying out a secret mission and might return at any time.

Since the ninja identity has not been stripped, he is naturally qualified to participate in the jonin meeting of Konoha.

"Ahem!" Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, and then said:

"Of course, sit down first."

After that, Jiraiya took Orochimaru and Tsunade, who were silent, and Asakawa Naoki and his party to sit in the corner of the conference room where Hatake Sakumo was.

"Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade, you are back." Hatake Sakumo greeted the three of them, but his tone was weak because of his not very good mental state.

"Well, Naoki told us about your situation, so we came." Orochimaru nodded and said.

During this period, Orochimaru was still busy studying the difference between natural energy and chakra. If it weren't for Asakawa Naoki's invitation, he might not know what happened in Konoha.

After receiving Asakawa Naoki's invitation, Orochimaru had to come back, whether as a disciple's request or as a former colleague.

"Lord Sakumo should have a good rest recently." Tsunade advised.

Seeing Hatake Sakumo's haggard appearance, Tsunade, as a doctor, understood his condition at first sight.

I'm afraid that the pressure Hatake Sakumo has been under during this period is far beyond others' imagination, causing him to be decadent both mentally and physically.

If she hadn't left Konoha in time, Hatake Sakumo would probably be what she was at the beginning. This is the power of public opinion.

"Fortunately, I listened to Naoki's advice at the time." Tsunade sighed in her heart.

"I didn't expect that when we left, such a big thing happened in the village, and we had to come back." Jiraiya said helplessly.

He left Konoha because he didn't want to be bound by the village and wanted to find the child of prophecy in the ninja world.

Jiraiya didn't expect that Konoha would change so much after he left.

Some time ago, someone slandered Tsunade and forced her out of Konoha, and Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't care.

Unexpectedly, this time he scored twice. When it was obvious that someone wanted to use public opinion to deal with Hatake Sakumo, the old man didn't care.

Hatake Sakumo didn'tTsunade is so upright and straightforward, and under the attack of public opinion, he might really get into trouble.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, are you going to destroy Konoha!

So, Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade are all back.

Not only to support Hatake Sakumo, but also for the future of Konoha!

"Thank you." Hatake Sakumo said gratefully:

"But you don't have to be like this, this matter is indeed my fault..."

"No, we are not just for Lord Sakumo, but also for the future of Konoha." Jiraiya interrupted him.

"Okay." Hatake Sakumo nodded, and then cast a grateful look at Asakawa Naoki who was sitting behind him.

"Thank you."

He knew that the return of the three ninjas certainly wanted to change Konoha's ideas, but on the other hand, if it weren't for Asakawa Naoki, they would not have come back together at this critical time.

Looking at the three ninjas sitting with Hatake Sakumo, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't hold his composure, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En's faces turned black, and Shimura Danzo's face was as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

No wonder the three ninjas returned to Konoha at this time, it turned out that they came for Hatake Sakumo.

Then today's Jonin meeting might be a little difficult.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was originally happy to see the three disciples return to Konoha, now had a headache.

However, even if he had a headache, the Jonin meeting had to be held.

"Since everyone is here, now, this Jonin meeting officially begins." Sarutobi Hiruzen said slowly:

"The first resolution of this meeting is about the ninja budget..."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen proposed, almost all the ninjas present chose to agree.

This is why Asakawa Naoki felt that the ordinary Konoha Jonin meeting was meaningless formalism.

Unless it is a resolution involving the interests of the entire ninja clan, these jonin will not object, and it is almost the Hokage who has the final say.

But if it really involves the interests of the entire ninja clan, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has lost his ambition after old age, dare not propose it.

As the scene remained calm after one resolution was passed, Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart became more and more uneasy.

He knew that his three disciples could not return to Konoha together for no reason.

As the last resolution was passed, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that something big was coming!

"If all the jonin have no objection, today's jonin meeting will end..."

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, he was interrupted by a crisp voice.

"Hokage, I have an objection!"
