Chapter Twelve: The Dissatisfaction of the Hokage Building
Paper cannot contain the fire, let alone the loudmouths of the Uchiha clan.
Especially this time, the Uchiha Clan Conference mobilized a lot of effort and gathered nearly one-fifth of the Jounin in Konoha Ninja Village. The clan area was also heavily guarded. Anbu who came to observe closely were beaten to the ground and thrown into the police department's jail.
Get up... No one can guess what these lunatics like Uchiha want to do.
And this also made everyone who paid attention to Uchiha feel restless, especially F4 in the Hokage Building.
As the contemporary leadership team of Konoha that inherits the legacy of the second generation, headed by Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, assisted by Danzo Shimura, and assisted by Mito Kaden and Koharu Tennana, they together form the core of the ruling of the third generation. On the contrary, it is the original same
He took the wind for Uchiha Kagami and Akimichi of the Hokage Tobirama class, died and retired, and no longer had the chance to gain power in the Ninja Village.
…
The atmosphere in the Hokage's office was solemn at this time. The F4 of Konoha all had straight faces. The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, kept blowing out thick clouds of smoke with his pipe in his mouth. The other three people had no time to care, and just kept quiet.
Waiting for news from ANBU spies.
The rule of the Third Hokage is not stable.
The root cause is that the basis for his ascension to the throne of Hokage was only the will of the second generation, and there was no witness from other third-party forces. Therefore, not to mention the Uchiha clan, even the old Senju clan were dissatisfied, and the various ninja clans were also dissatisfied.
, but at least the first ninja war under his command was over. With the momentum of victory, the opposition, except for the stubborn Uchiha clan, could not say anything, but secretly planned. Faced with such a situation, the third generation
Several key measures were taken.
The first is to strengthen the importance of Konoha Ninja School, expand the enrollment scale and train civilian ninjas to check and balance the power of the ninja clan.
The second is the expansion of the Anbu, strengthening the number and equipment of the departments directly under the Hokage. As the trump card and direct force organization of the Hokage, it is placed supreme over all departments in Konoha. However, this also ushered in the strong dissatisfaction of the old-school ninjas who established the village and controlled each department.
Among them, the Uchiha clan, which controls the police department, is the most prominent.
With a two-pronged approach, the power of the Hokage faction was strengthened, and the old faction's power, especially the Senju's old faction, was contained. At least the opponents on the surface no longer existed.
With a "--bang" sound, a cloud of smoke rose in the Hokage's office, and an ANBU kneeled on one knee and appeared in front of Konoha F4.
"Lord Hokage, my subordinates will investigate and report."
"Send it over quickly!" Sandai didn't waste any words. After all, he was tired of waiting and directly asked the ANBU to report the information.
Looking at the contents of the information scroll, the Third Hokage's expression was gloomy and uncertain, which made the other three people feel even more uneasy.
What the hell is the crazy red-eyed Uchiha clan doing?
The three of them felt unsure.
Sandai read the information several times, and was so angry at the content that his chest felt tight. He slumped down on the seat and sighed.
The three of them became even more worried.
Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Sandai casually threw the information scroll to Shimura Danzo.
"Let's take a look." After saying that, he closed his eyes and rested his mind, but the pipe he held in his mouth smoked more and more urgently, which showed that his heart was not as calm as it appeared on the outside.
Danzo Shimura hurriedly scanned the contents of the intelligence and was shocked. Then he handed the scroll to Mito Kadobu and Koharu Koharu, then turned to the third generation and said.
"Hiruzhan! What do you think!"
Sandai still closed his eyes to rest and paid no attention.
"What about you? What do you think it should be?"
Seeing that the third generation ignored him, Danzo Shimura turned to Mito Kaden and Koharu Koharu.
"Uchiha is trying to rebel against the village! Severe sanctions must be imposed! Otherwise, those ninjas will turn upside down one by one!" Danzo became more and more angry as he spoke. He turned around and shouted to the third generation, "Hiruzhan, at this time, we must use Defeat Uchiha's delusions with an iron fist! The village can no longer let them do whatever they want!"
The more Danzo talked, the more excited he became, and gradually he could no longer hold his tongue.
"Or, you give me the command of the ANBU, and I personally lead people to kill old people like Uchiha. As long as I break the backbone of such a lunatic, they will not dare to continue to be arrogant!"
"Shut up!"
The third generation opened his eyes suddenly and roared at Danzo like a furious lion.
"...Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
"Would you like to arrest that old guy Setsuna for questioning?" Koharu suggested as he moved to bed.
"Are you going to catch it or who is going to catch it?"
The third generation glared at Koharu who was sleeping, how could the elder of the radical Uchiha faction be so easy to control.
"What about this brat? Uchiha Nakagen's son." Koharu turned to bed and pointed at the name of the proposer Uchiha Tokimitsu on the information.
"A six-year-old brat, who knows if it was a smoke bomb released by Uchiha." Mito Kadoyan also felt that it was a bit nonsensical and couldn't help but say something.
"Besides, maybe that crazy guy with red eyes has already laid a trap waiting for him." Danzo on the side said sneerly. After all, he has tricked many people, so naturally he always feels that others are always trying to trick him.
"But this matter must be nipped in the bud! Uchiha must not set up a ninja school on his own. This is splitting the village! It is a naked act of rebellion!"
Several people discussed for a long time, but they couldn't find any good way. It was really impossible to use force. Although the direct power of Hokage and the family power of F4 were slightly superior in high-end combat power, they were still not enough to defeat the Uchiha jounin. ; As for the text, Uchiha claims to have opened a "Police Department Preparatory Training School", which is not a serious ninja school. It is only a training institution for police officers in name. Even the admissions are so-called police officers. Reserve trainees are theoretically of the same nature as the Anbu Training Department, which is the root commanded by Danzo, and the Police Department, as the traditional sphere of influence of the Uchiha clan, is made up of Uchiha clan members from top to bottom, and even the Hokage cannot influence it. When it comes to its operation, based on this calculation, there are very few checks and balances available to the Hokage.
"We must not sit back and watch the Uchiha ninja school open." Danzo gritted his teeth.
"Hiruzen, what are your plans? Or do you have any good ideas?" Seeing that several people couldn't come up with a solution, Mito Kadoren directly asked the Third Hokage for his specific opinions.
Sandai straightened his body slowly, took out another bag of tobacco from the drawer, slowly pressed it into the pipe, then picked it up, touched the two fingers of his right hand, and a small flame came out and lit the tobacco deeply. He took a sip.
"call……"
The third generation stood out in a thick cloud of smoke.
"Have you finished speaking?" asked the third generation, who was gulping at the clouds. "Since there is nothing you can do, just listen to me."
When the three heard the words, they couldn't help but straighten up and listen.
"Make an appointment with the leader of the Uchiha clan. Tell him that ANBU will give quotas to the Uchiha clan and ask him to select people from the clan to join. The quota... is tentatively set at three. At the same time, if the police department needs training, ANBU can also do it for them. , stop wasting public funds.”
When Danzo heard this, he jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and was about to express his objection.
"As for the Uchiha kid who is claimed to be the proposer in the intelligence...well, his name is Uchiha Tokimitsu, I will accept him as my disciple."
After saying that, Sandai continued to sit on the chair, waved his hand, "Go and do it!"
"yes!"
There was a response from the corner of the Hokage's office, and then it turned into a shadow and flashed out of the window.
"Hiruzen...you will regret it!"
Danzo, who wanted to object but had no other alternative, gritted his teeth and said, then slammed the door and left.
Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who had gone to bed, looked at each other and found an excuse to leave.
In the office, the Third Hokage continued to smoke his pipe silently.
Ball after ball of thick smoke kept spewing out, making the huge office look hazy.
