Chapter 169: Ren Xiong is trapped in public opinion

Inside the Hokage's office.

"Sir, Third Generation, the Rain Ninja Village declared to the outside world that the last war was our Konoha conspiracy."

"The Kingdom of Sichuan and the Kingdom of Wind formed an alliance to jointly attack the border."

"The Kusanagi Village responded to the call of Iwagakure Village and severed diplomatic relations with Konoha..."

"Sandaime-sama, under various rumors in the ninja world, the conflicts of the war are all pointed at us in Konoha, and there are also spies from all the major ninja villages in the village..."

The ninjas from the Anbu and Intelligence Department kept reporting one after another, but since the Suna Ninja and Kumogakure declared war, there has been no good news.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in the position of the Hokage, had never let go of his frown after the sudden war broke out, and his old face was full of exhaustion and anger.

"Destroy the Kazekage first, then the Raikage. The ninja world will be dominated by only I, Sarutobi!"

At this moment, after Danzo Shimura said these words spread in the ninja world with an ugly expression on his face, he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a strange look.

Seeing the look in Shimura Danzo's eyes, Sarutobi Hiruzen slapped the table angrily and shouted coldly: "Danzo, this is not what I did!"

He was wronged!

But these words, which are arrogant and have the power to swallow up the mountains and rivers of the ninja world, are all words that show his heroic spirit.

This made Danzo Shimura a little suspicious. He was so imposing. Damn it, Danzo would admit it even if he started a war. At least his reputation would rise and he would have a chance to compete with the Hokage.

"Hiruzhan, although this was not done by you, could it be done by your Sarutobi clan?"

Shimura Danzo hesitated for a moment, still a little doubtful in his heart, and then said in a solemn voice:

"The black and white conflict in Cloud Hidden Village and the tailed beast rampage plan are all part of our plan, but the disappearance of the third Kazekage in Sunagakure Village and the sudden appearance of the Copper Horn are not in our plan!"

Shimura Danzo couldn't help but suspect this. It was such a coincidence and perfect coordination.

Seeing Shimura Danzo's suspicious eyes, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt even more aggrieved. The enemy was really too cruel this time.

It was completely a conspiracy tailored to his title of Ninja Hero.

"Danzo! Orochimaru has returned. The two-tails rampage and the Copper Horn incident were all planned by Orochimaru."

Tongjiao was fabricating it out of thin air, especially when Orochimaru came back and proved it, but they couldn't claim it to the outside world.

No matter what Kumogakure and Suna Ninja say, Konoha cannot admit it directly, otherwise it will really start a war in the shinobi world.

"But the third Kazekage disappeared or even was killed. This is the shadow of the five great ninja villages. Even if a jounin was killed, there should be information. Are all the people in the Suna Ninja Village useless!"

He, Sarutobi Hiruzen, recognized all the blame, except for the third Kazekage, who was responsible for the assassination of the five great shinobi villages.

"Hiruzhan, since it's not us, then who else in the ninja world has this ability!"

Under Shimura Danzo's solemn look, Mito Kadoyan and Koharu who were sleeping next to him also frowned a little.

"Hiruzhan, what Danzo said makes sense. Could it be that someone within the Sarutobi clan didn't want to see you lose the power of the Hokage, so they secretly used ANBU's information..."

It's not that they want to be suspicious, but the missing person is a Kage from one of the five great ninja villages, not a cat or a dog, and the Sunagakure Village will not talk nonsense about such an embarrassing thing.

The three old friends were suddenly suspicious, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more frustrated.

“Danzo, Yan, and Koharu, we originally developed our families because we were facing pressure from major wealthy families, so we needed to develop our own families to be able to compete.

Although the Sarutobi clan has developed a bit fast in recent years, it is only because of the large number of people in the Sarutobi clan that this convenience comes. I admit that I have been a little indulgent in the Sarutobi clan in recent years, but this is all to compete with Uchiha and Hinata! "

This was their original intention to develop their family together. After all, facing so many big families at the same time, only they could understand the pressure.

When it comes to developing the family, only Danzo Shimura looks a little embarrassed. Among the four, he is the only one who secretly invests the resources used to develop the family at the root.

Not to mention developing the family, he even secretly absorbed the family's blood to strengthen the roots. Otherwise, how could the roots have developed into an existence that is not inferior to the ANBU in just over twenty years?

"Hiruzen, we understand you, but what about the other ninjas in the village? They won't understand."

Mito Kadoyan sighed and said helplessly, while Koharu, who was sleeping next to him, also shook his head and said: "Usually Hiruzen, you indulge the Sarutobi clan too much, but this time you took the opportunity. Now, There are not only spies from the major ninja villages in the village, but also these wealthy families who will not miss this opportunity.

After all, the jonins of the Sarutobi clan have entered and exited the Hokage building at will over the years, and it is even now rumored that your son can enter the Hokage archives at will..."

Koharu wasn't talking nonsense when he said this. In the original work, the three generations of Hokage had changed dynasties after their death, Konohamaru could easily enter, and even the ANBU was blind throughout the whole process. You can imagine how outrageous this indulgence is.

What's even more outrageous is that the entire Leaf Village and ANBU have become so accustomed to it that they consider it normal.

Normally, these are trivial matters to those in power, but at a critical moment, they can have a decisive effect.

"Although the mobilization of Suna Ninja's army of five thousand ninjas was very fast, we found it in time. Reinforcements have been continuously dispatched to the border of Kawanoguni, and Jiraiya happened to be performing a mission nearby.

There are three thousand ninja legions, and Jiraiya is also there. With the continuous arrival of ninja reinforcements, we are not at a big disadvantage in terms of the number of ninjas. "

Mito Kadoyan shook his head and slowly told the situation on the front line.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned with a sad face, staring at the defense map of the Fire Country, while nodding and saying solemnly: "Although Kumogakure Village has declared war on us, it has even joined forces with Sunagakure Village. The slogan, but the quarrel between the major ninja villages is obviously trying to use Suna ninja to consume us, so Kumogakure Village seems to be menacing, but it is more of a bluff..."

"What we should be most worried about now is Iwagakure Village and the Kirigakure Village behind it. Kirigakure Village, the two major ninja villages, has not expressed anything, but Onoki of Iwagakure Village will never let go of this opportunity."

You don’t know if you don’t look at the situation, but you will be shocked when you look at the situation.

The previous third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, looked indifferent and had the aura of a ninja hero, but at this moment he felt that it was difficult to move forward. The entire border of the ninja world was full of wars that might break out.

Shimura Danzo, who was usually taciturn, became rarely solemn after seeing the situation that the village was facing now. He looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said a word of concern in a deep voice.

"Hiruzen, this is how we came to the First Ninja World War, but now there are rumors in the village. The most important thing to deal with is your prestige as Hokage, Hiruzen!"

If you want to talk about how high Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation was after winning World War II, then how chaotic it is now.

Especially the previous White Fang incident, in order to stop these people's mouths, they themselves loudly preached that if he, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was really greedy for the position of Hokage, he would just start a war, and there would be no need to frame and exclude the ninjas from the same village.

As a result, less than half a year later, he was slapped in the face!
The Ninja World War has begun, and the spearhead of the entire Ninja World is pointed at the Ninja Hero of Konoha.

Previously, Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation in Konoha was at its peak, and everyone knew the power of the Ninja hero. He even had the slogan of being the strongest Hokage.

As a result, his original prestige turned into a boomerang, and he is now in a desperate situation.

"Hiruzen!"

Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who was transferred to the dormitory, also showed solemn expressions. It was such an eventful year. Externally, the Ninja World War broke out, and they had to face two major Ninja Villages as soon as they entered the field.

Internally, public opinion kills people, and the reputation of the Sarutobi clan and the image of Sarutobi Hiruzen's conspiracy and ambition seem to have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"beat!"

Taking a deep breath, Sarutobi Hiruzen faced internal and external pressure, and a surge of fighting spirit erupted in his eyes. He even looked at Mito Kadoyan, Koharu who had transferred to his dormitory, and Danzo Shimura in shock.

Under such strong pressure, Sarutobi Hiruzen was worthy of the title of Ninja, especially when he was at his peak, he was not the Ninja who suffered from cowardice later.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was full of momentum, calmly pointed to the border defense map on the table and shouted coldly: "Since war is unavoidable, let's fight! With the four major ninja villages fighting openly and secretly, everyone wants it. If we use others to consume us first, then this will also give us an opportunity.

There is a Jonin meeting tonight, and I am determined that Konoha will directly dispatch the strongest combat force, focus first, and defeat pain, fear, and defeat a ninja village. Even if other ninja villages join forces in turn, so what! "

Sarutobi Hiruzen's extremely courageous decision made Mito Kaden and Koharu show their fighting spirit, and they even nodded and said:

"That's right! What Hiruzen said makes sense. If we want to fight anyway, let's knock one out first. While frightening the other ninja villages, we can also reduce one enemy."

"But..." At this time, Xiaochun turned to bed, but hesitation appeared under his frown.

"Hiruzen, the major families had grudges about White Fang before, and after the Great Ninja World War more than 20 years ago, the promises we made with the major families were not fulfilled. I'm afraid this time!"

During the Great Ninja World War, major families rushed to the war one after another, and they also reached some kind of agreement at that time.

As a result, after the victory of the war, the major families suffered heavy losses. They released some goodwill at the beginning and continued to strengthen themselves at the same time.

The final agreement was not fully fulfilled, which deeply dissatisfied the major families, and this led to the joint recommendation of White Fang.

The major families were obviously jealous again about White Fang's incident some time ago.

Faced with Koharu's worries as he moved to bed, Shimura Danzo became angry and slapped the table angrily:

"This group of greedy families are lying on Konoha to suck blood!"

The reason why they are angry is because they are doing all this for the development of Konoha and from their own perspective.

Among the F4 people in Konoha, only Shimura Danzo can say this openly, because he is the only one who really has not strengthened his family.

Even for the sake of the roots, the Shimura clan was unlucky to have such a clan leader suck the family's blood to nourish the roots.

It can be said that Danzo Shimura is the only outlier in Konoha.

Faced with Danzo Shimura's anger, Mito Kadeni and Koharu Koharu were a little embarrassed. They secretly took advantage of the terms they had negotiated with the big family.

As for Sarutobi Hiruzen, he was indeed worthy of becoming the Third Hokage. His expression showed no emotion, but he said in a solemn voice:

"Don't worry about the major families. All they want is profit. What we are facing now is to win this war!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, may have many contradictions, but one thing is undeniable. He only believes in his own will of fire for Konoha.

Mito Kado and Koharu Koharu may still be worried that they will lose power when the third generation steps down, but Shimura Danzo simply believes that after the monkey comes down, he will be the only one in Konoha worthy of being the Hokage.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was already anxious under various public opinions in the ninja world. He had enjoyed a lifetime of glory. He would never allow his reputation to be ruined at the last moment, let alone allow Konoha to fall into the sky in his eyes. altar.

Therefore, whether Sarutobi Hiruzen can sit firmly in the position of Hokage is closely related to them.

"Now Sunagakure and Leiyin Village have declared war on us. If we choose one of the two, Cloud Hidden Village will now have the greatest internal conflict..."

Under Danzo Shimura's sinister cold light, Mito Kaden and Koharu also nodded solemnly.

"Yes, relatively speaking, we have the most complete intelligence in Cloud Hidden Village, and Cloud Hidden Village seems to be stronger than Sunagakure Village, but internal conflicts can only be resolved by the fall of one party."

Surprisingly, they all chose Yunyin Village, which seemed to be more powerful.

Because the conflict within Kumogakure Village is an unsolvable conspiracy, the Kingdom of Thunder, from top to bottom, no matter whether it is nobles, the number of jounin or the shadows, is all black.

How do you resolve this conflict? It can only be resolved if one party falls completely.

When Uchiha Ye and his party returned to Konoha, they saw a depressing atmosphere in the village.

When they left on their mission, the village was still full of vitality, but when they came back, the whole village felt depressing with the arrival of war.

Even countless ninjas are being mobilized.

"Damn it, how could the Third Hokage start a war!"

"Shut up. Think about how many ninjas there are in the Sarutobi clan in various departments. Even Shinobu will change for the sake of Hokage's position."

"Just for the position of Hokage, you are willing to start a war!?"

"No! I don't believe it! I don't believe that the Third Generation would do this."

Along the way, the entire Konoha was filled with an atmosphere of suspicion. This scene was very similar to the rumors that suddenly broke out in the village when White Fang failed in his mission.

The difference is that this time it broke out in the entire ninja world. First, Suna Ninja and Kumogakure started a war against Konoha at the same time, even under the banner of revenge.

Immediately afterwards, Iwagakure Village was not to be outdone, and directly blocked the border with three thousand ninja troops, saying that they had also discovered Konoha's conspiracy and were now stopping it.

There is only one Kirigakure village far away overseas. Almost all the great ninja villages in the ninja world send a signal to the ninja world for their release.

That is, Konoha is plotting to persecute the major ninja villages, and the entire ninja world seems to be caught up in the conspiracy woven by Konoha.

There was no chance before, but now that the opportunity has been seized, all the major ninja villages are ruthlessly beating the shit out of them.

Why did Hiruzen Sarutobi covet the power of the Hokage? Why did the Sarutobi clan already have three thousand ninja troops? All kinds of rumors have been flying all over the sky, especially the number of spies in Konoha Village.

In one sentence, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was suddenly branded as an ambitious and a black-handed conspirator in the ninja world, which he could not wash away.

"Minister Night, there is a Jonin meeting in the Hokage's office building in the evening."

When Uchiha Yakuza just came back, ANBU came to inform him, and the same was true for the whole of Konoha.

The sudden war disrupted the development of Konoha, especially Hiruzen Sarutobi in the Hokage's office. He was caught off guard and had no time to react. Wave after wave kept coming.

Thank you all for your support.
