However, it’s just a sign.

As time goes by, even if Hanzo is still alive, he is already an old man.

Nara Shikaku had reason to believe that the so-called policy of closing the country and the village was a helpless decision made when Hanzo’s strength declined and there was no one to succeed him.

Yuyin has completely declined.

But because of the title of “Demi-God”, it is most appropriate to use the declining Amegakure and Hanzo to establish his authority.

In addition, the geographical location of the Rain Village is of strategic significance. It can attack the Hidden Rain Village or defend Konoha. It is a strategic buffer zone.

“What do you think, Yondaime?”

Nara Shikaku’s eyes were burning, and he thought this was the best choice for Konoha. The knife that Advisor Gojo had exchanged for “life and death” was put to good use.

As long as the Fourth Hokage nods, he, as the representative of the Great Ninja Clan, will naturally fully support the work and strive for the greatest benefits for Konoha.

Anyway, the corpse can’t speak, no matter who the information obtained from the other party after being tortured is, or who is the mastermind behind the assassination.

Konoha should not let personal emotions affect the best choice.

In Nara Shikaku’s eyes, Yuyin is the best target for establishing his authority.

Unexpectedly…

Namikaze Minato shook his head: “No, this assassination was not done by the people from the Hidden Rain Village. The information I obtained through torture is not like this.”

“what?”

“That is……”

Nara Shikaku was a little hesitant. He couldn’t say that it was Kumogakure who did it.

Please, Yondaime, wake up!

Even if we have to take action against Kumogakure and Iwagakure sooner or later, now is not the time to reveal our cards.

Even if the intelligence is true, for the sake of the overall situation we can’t…

“It’s Kusagakure Village and Yugakure Village!”

Namikaze Minato said calmly without blushing or panting. He has been the Hokage for a long time, so he can still save face.

It was this case of calling a horse a zebra…that made the usually gentle Minato feel a little guilty.

But the career of a ninja has come to an end, and I don’t need to care about the guilt of carrying the name of Hokage.

“Oh, grass…ah?”

There was an uproar.

The voices of discussion were even louder than the response when a tough response was announced.

“That’s not right, Yondaime.” Shikaku said subconsciously, “The Kusagakure Village has always been a friendly neighbor to us, and the Yugakure Village is also a peace-loving village. They have also promised to assist in the construction and protection of the [Musha Trade Road].”

“How can it be possible… How could they be the murderers who planned this assassination?”

“It’s hard to believe, but it’s true.”

“This was the last information that Advisor Gojo revealed to me before he passed out. He witnessed with his own eyes the message the masked man delivered to his employer and is the only person who knows the truth about the attack.”

“The masked man is a killer ninja who received a commission from the underground gold exchange!”

“And the one who issued the commission… is suspected to be the Yugakure ninja named [Hidan] and [Uzumaki Momohime] (Karin’s mother) from Kusagakure Village!”

“Konoha will issue a stern statement to the two villages, demanding that they hand over the two suspects and bring them back to Konoha for investigation. If the two villages refuse…” Minato paused, his expression becoming more serious: “We will launch the first real special military operation since the end of World War III!”

[Hidan], [Uzumaki Momohime], this is the list given by Gojo Kegetsu.

Although he was a minor character whose name had never been heard of, Minato still obeyed Gojo Kegetsu’s will.

If you want someone, then arrest him! If you don’t want to give him, then rob him!

“Hidan? Uzumaki Momohime?”

Two unfamiliar names entered the vision of the carnivores of Konoha, and even a smart man like Nara Shikaku was a little confused for a moment.

Who are these two?

Uzumaki Momohime could understand the remnants of the Whirlpool Country who were stranded outside.

What is the flying section?

It is just like the children in the ninja school who often report the names of their unknown classmates when comparing their fighting strength, and then answer themselves by saying “It’s normal not to know him, he is my deskmate”. It is just as ridiculous.

But now that things have come to this, Nara Shikaku can’t say anything in rebuttal.

I could only sit back in my seat quietly.

Such is the right of a Hokage.

Discussions are normal and voting is normal.

When it comes to village-level decision-making, the Hokage always has the final say. The violent organization called the village will act from top to bottom to implement the will of the Hokage.

Now, the Hokage of Konoha has announced a special military operation.

Then Konoha will only have one voice – launch a special military operation!

“Yes, Lord Hokage!” Nara Shikaku chose to obey the will of fire.

Fugaku also stood up and put his right fist on his heart: “心懓をささげよう!!”

Hinata Hizashi also stood up: “心懓をささげよう!!”

“心懓をささげよう!”

More and more ninja representatives stood up, until finally, everyone stood up!

Although some people still prefer to be conservative and embrace peace, under the collective will, they have to choose to offer their hearts together.

Speaking of offering your heart…it was Advisor Gojo who first proposed this etiquette.

Designed to express loyalty to Konoha.

Hey, really don’t say it.

Even the Konoha ninjas, who had experienced the cruelty of the ninja world and were accustomed to life and death, could not help but feel excited when they heard this uniform slogan.

It’s true, even though the person’s life or death is unknown and he is no longer in the Hokage Building, the political influence he left behind has profoundly affected the carnivores of Konoha.

No one spoke up for the so-called “friendly neighboring village.”

The ninja world is like this, either you become a meal on the plate, or you sit at the table and become a meat eater.

As the largest ninja village in the ninja world, if it still has to consider the thoughts and dignity of smaller villages, wouldn’t it be a waste of being a large ninja village?

Perhaps, Konoha’s initial war-weariness was very high.

But now that Konoha’s economy is booming and its army is strong, a considerable number of left-wing ninjas can’t wait to exercise the tyranny of “Umura”.

Volume 110: Fugaku~Will the dominance come to you by itself?

[Breaking news! A mysterious ninja assassinated the elder of the Hidden Leaf Village, Gojo Kegetsu! ]

[Gojo Kegetsu’s life or death is uncertain! The Fourth Hokage is furious! ]

[Intelligence interrogation! The employer who issued the assassination commission actually came from ▆▆▆]

……

……

The news that the elder of Konoha had been assassinated and his life or death was in danger spread quickly throughout the ninja world like thunder out of the blue, becoming the most important event in the ninja world in recent times.

The publicity was so great that it even overshadowed the official announcement by Kumogakure that it accepted exchange students from Kirigakure and Sunagakure.

The shadow of war seemed to have once again loomed over the ninja world.

The atmosphere in Konoha Village gradually became weird.

It’s not worry or disgust about war, but only anger due to a common hatred of the enemy!

Among them, the Uchiha clan had the strongest reaction.

Advisor Gojo is a great benefactor to whom their clan can never repay!

As soon as the news came out, the entire Uchiha clan was in an uproar.

The one with the strongest reaction even gained an extra magatama due to the stimulation of this emotion.

Even though he didn’t even know who the enemy was, he kept shouting “Tap, tap, open!” and “Keep touching, tap, tap, open!” and was about to go and fight the enemy.

Belligerence is contagious.

The extreme reaction of the Uchiha clan gradually affected other ninjas in Konoha Village.

Among them were students of Gojo Kegetsu when he taught at the ninja school, and civilian ninjas who enjoyed the benefits of low-priced ninja tools… They took to the streets spontaneously, holding up banners, demanding that the village step in to punish the murderer who issued the assassination mission.

Although it has not been explicitly stated, there have been rumors, driven by people with ulterior motives, that it was the Hidden Cloud Village that sent people to do the deed.

This time, there was no “secret police” arresting ninjas who spread war ideas and putting them in jail, nor was there any private contact and appeasement of the fifth-generation candidate.

To put it simply, a buff of [Common Hatred and Common Enemy] will appear above your head.

Samui was uneasy, looking at the banners on the street demanding an attack on Kumogakure, she was terrified and quickly reported the war mood in Konoha Village back to the village.

That night, Gojo Jieyue left and never came back.

By the time the news came back, it was already an extremely ambiguous message: “Life or death is uncertain.”

Even when he wanted to visit Gojo Kegetsu in the name of “a member of the Gojo clan”, he was rejected by the Fourth Hokage.

I didn’t see him in the Konoha Hospital, so I really don’t know where he is being treated now.

“What an idiot… You are just a Chunin, why would you chase after a ninja who looks like a bad guy?”

“Does he have no sense of crisis at all? Is he used to the comfort of Konoha Village and thinks that the ninja world outside is also peaceful?”

“Does Gojo Jieyue know what he is shouldering?”

‘If he died at this time, how much of a stir would it cause?’

Sam was very upset.

On the one hand, if Konoha continues to be in such a highly united and belligerent mood, a war with the Hidden Cloud Village may really break out. The current Hidden Cloud Village needs to seize the opportunity for peaceful development.

This is the ninja world.

You are in me, I am in you, one move affects the whole body. Once the two villages start fighting, the other three villages will definitely not stand by and watch.

The conflict between Konoha and Kumogakure will only disrupt each other’s layout and plans, and benefit the other three major ninja villages for nothing.

On the other hand, as time goes by, love grows. Samui also has some thoughts about Gojo Jieyue beyond the mission objectives.

……

……

Deep in an underground laboratory where even the Byakugan could not see, Gojo Jieyue also revealed his evil smile.

He patted Fugaku’s shoulder to show his comfort.

Fugaku just felt a little uneasy. Although he understood Gojo Kegetsu’s love for life, it was impossible for him to die in the assassination.

But he didn’t expect that Gojo Jieyue was not only fine, but also enthusiastically dragged him to this mysterious basement, and no one knew what he was going to do.

Looking at the various sophisticated-looking instruments around him, Fugaku felt vaguely uneasy.

“Gojo-kun, what are you doing…?”

“Fugaku, don’t worry. This is a laboratory that I have spent a lot of money to build a long time ago. It is very secretive. The researchers inside have signed a confidentiality agreement with me and will not disclose what happens here.”

“That’s not what I asked.”

“But what I’m going to say next is related to this.”

“?”

Fugaku felt even more uneasy.
