Naruto: The Strongest Young Master of Thousand Hands

After returning to Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen convened an emergency meeting and requested Konoha's top leaders to attend the meeting to discuss the candidates for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and Konoha's countermeasures when the tailed beasts are transferred.

Among them were Danzo who had returned from his injuries, Orochimaru, Sarutobi Hiruzen's most proud disciple, Jiraiya, who was also Sarutobi Hiruzen's disciple, and Utatane Koharu, who had been acting on Konoha's affairs while the top leaders had gone to the battlefield. Finally, there were the patriarchs of some large families such as: Hyuga, Ino-Shika-cho, Uchiha, etc.

As for Tsunade, she did not come to the scene because she was in a hurry to visit Uzumaki Mizumuro, and was represented by an elder of the Senju clan.

In the high-level meeting room of the Hokage Building, all the senior executives were in place, so after Sarutobi Hiruzen was the last to enter, the meeting officially began.

"Sarutobi, Mizumuro-sensei can't hold on any longer. Which one of the two Uzumaki clan members are you going to choose as the Jinchūriki for the transfer of the Nine-Tails?"

As the assistant of the Hokage, Danzo sat beside Sarutobi Hiruzen. Seeing that he had already sat down, he couldn't wait to ask.

At this time, he was wrapped in bandages from the right half of his face to half of his body.

In the war with the Land of Earth not long ago, Danzo lost an eye and his right hand was seriously injured because he was not as strong as the second generation Tsuchikage in the battle.

"Who do you think is more suitable to be the Jinchūriki, Uzumaki Kushina or Uzumaki Reina?"

Without directly answering Danzo's question, Sarutobi Hiruzen rested his chin on his head and looked at the senior executives sitting there. He had not yet decided who to let be the Jinchūriki, and wanted to hear other people's opinions.

""Teacher, do I have to choose between two little girls around ten years old?" Jiraiya asked in confusion.

After all, he was still very kind, not to mention that he knew both girls, one was Ling Du's girlfriend, and the other had a close relationship with his apprentice Minato Namikaze.

As for the replacement of the tailed beast Jinchūriki, it can be said that even a Kage-level strongman would not dare to be 100% sure that it can be successful, let alone two children around ten years old. If you are not careful, they may die together.

"I know you don't understand, but it is inevitable to choose the next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki between the two of them. No one in Konoha is more suitable to be the carrier of the tailed beast except the two of them."Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya who was acting emotionally and shook his head helplessly.

Jiraiya is too kind, and he is not suitable to be a high-level official in Konoha in the future.

"I think it is better to replace the Jinchūriki with Kushina, who is more powerful, and the success rate is higher."

At this time, Orochimaru's voice came out.

Orochimaru was not as kind-hearted as Jiraiya. In his opinion, as long as it was good for Konoha, sacrificing one or two ninjas was acceptable.

As soon as he spoke, more than half of the senior leaders nodded secretly, obviously agreeing with Orochimaru's words.

"Orochimaru……"

"I don't agree!" Danzo stood up suddenly and said loudly.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him, waiting for his departure.

"The stronger party does have an advantage in replacing the Jinchūriki, but the Nine-Tails is an evil being after all, and as its Jinchūriki, it is obvious that her character needs to be good. I don't think Uzumaki Kushina can take on this responsibility."

"At the same time, the controllability of the Jinchūriki is also extremely important. Instead of choosing a Jinchūriki with strong strength but low controllability, it is better to choose a more obedient Jinchūriki."

"Finally, the most important point is that one of Uzumaki Kushina's teammates has the Mangekyō Sharingan, which controls the evil eye of the tailed beasts. The combination of the two is not something that we Konoha can easily deal with."

Danzo listed all the reasons for his opposition. This special targeting of the Uchiha clan made everyone present fall into deep thought.

In fact, there was one thing he didn't say. Although Ling Yu's wood escape and strength can restrain the tailed beasts and Sharingan, according to the relationship between the three of them, they are very likely to...

At that time, he didn't want Ling Yu to have more helpers.

"I agree with Danzo-sama."

"I also agree with Danzo's choice."

"I agree……"

The Senju clan is already strong enough. With two more powerful helpers, their voice in Konoha will gradually increase. At that time, Konoha will be dominated by the Senju clan. Their current big families may become small families, and their voice in Konoha will become smaller and smaller.

After all, as the patriarchs of the big families in Konoha, no one wants to have another overlord sharing the spoils of their family.

"The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is chosen to be Uzumaki Reina. Next, we will start discussing the military deployment of replacing the Jinchuriki.……"

………………

While the Konoha high-level officials were holding a meeting, Tsunade, Kushina and Ling Yu went to the Senju clan's territory together to visit Uzumaki Mizumuro, who was running out of time.

As for Mikoto, she was invited back by the Uchiha clan as soon as she returned to Konoha because she exposed her Mangekyō Sharingan on the battlefield.

However, nothing could happen to her, after all, even the patriarch of the Uchiha clan at this time, Uchiha Toyama, was already Ling Du's puppet.

Under Ling Yu's absolute control, the Uchiha clan would not attack Mikoto, but would worship her as an ancestor.

The younger Xiaonan fell asleep early on the long journey, and Ling Yu didn't want Xiaonan to think of sad things because of seeing the scene of life and death.

So as soon as he entered Konoha, Ling Du took her back to his home and let her sleep well first, and then went back to take care of her after he and others visited Uzumaki Mizumuro.

With a heavy heart, Ling Yu and others came to Uzumaki Mizumuro's room

""Well... Grandma, I can't bear to leave..."

Looking at Uzumaki Mizumuro lying on the bed due to the approaching age, Tsunade, the strong woman, couldn't help but shed tears. She ran to the bedside, tightly grasped her hand, and her voice was a little choked.

She didn't have many relatives left. Senju Hashirama died in the last battle with Uchiha Madara, and Senju Tobirama also died in a battle to cover his subordinates' retreat.

Now Tsunade's only elder relative is Uzumaki Mizumuro. If Uzumaki Mizumuro leaves, then there will only be her and Ling Yu left in the Senju clan.

"Little Tsuna, grandma can't bear to let you go, but my old bones have lived long enough, and the seal in my body is getting looser. If we don't hurry up and move the Nine-Tails, Konoha will be in danger."

After struggling to stand up, Uzumaki Mizumuro hugged Tsunade in his arms, with a relieved expression on his face, and stroked Tsunade's hair to comfort her:

"You don't have to worry about me. Grandma is already satisfied to see you and little Lingyu grow up safely. It's time for me to go find your grandfather."

After saying that, she smiled lovingly at Lingyu standing at the door, with a look of relief in her eyes.

Lingyu shined on the battlefield, and she also knew that the wood escape whirlpool water room awakened the Senju Hashirama. Before she died, she could see the hope of the Senju clan's rise, and she died without regrets.

"Mizumuro Granny……"

Hearing this, Kushina could no longer hold back her sadness and threw herself into Uzumaki Mizumuro's arms.

"Kushina Don't Cry……"Gently patting Kushina's back, Uzumaki Mizumuro whispered in comfort.

Looking at this scene, Ling Yu felt very upset. Although his soul was not from this world, he had lived in Konoha for so long and he had gradually gotten used to having such a caring grandmother.

Now seeing that her life was about to end, she would rather overdraw her own life to stabilize the seal in her body, and hold on until Sarutobi Hiruzen and others came back to prevent the Nine-Tails from coming out to harm Konoha.

With a depressed mood, Ling Yu left Uzumaki Mizumuro's room, intending to go outside to relax and eliminate his inner unrest.

As soon as Ling Yu walked to the courtyard, a ninja from the Anbu rushed out from the dark.

"Master Lingyu, this is the decision made by Master Hokage regarding Jinchūriki. Please review it with Master Tsunade.

Half-kneeling on the ground, the Anbu ninja handed the envelope to Lingchen before turning around and leaving.

"Hmm? I see."Putting away the envelope in front of him, Ling Yu silently opened it.

"The Jinchūriki will be replaced in three days, but the Jinchūriki turned out to be Uzumaki Reina?"

After glancing at the contents of the letter, Ling Yu was somewhat confused.

He thought that the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki this time was still Kushina, just like in the original novel, but he didn't expect the development of the matter to be different from the original plot. It seems that it should be the butterfly effect caused by his appearance.

No wonder he didn't see Reina at Uzumaki Mizumuro's house. Now it seems that she should have been protected a long time ago.
