Mixed in the Hokage cultivation road

Chapter 97: Hypocritical Sarutobi Hiruzen

The shadows of the five major ninja villages are very angry about the threat from the Dark Ninja Village!
Because Hinata Shin not only sent them a document, he also specifically publicized the matter in the ninja world through the black market.

It can even be said that this is the time for them to demonstrate their role as shadows and highlight the village's propaganda will.

Just roast these five shadows over the fire!

He also wants them to recognize the Ninja Village as the sixth largest ninja village in the ninja world.

It's simply too much!

If it weren't for the powerful strength displayed by the Ninja Village, or if it weren't for the real fear of Hinata.

If the Dark Ninja Village dared to do this, it would have been crushed to the ground by the five major ninja villages long ago.

Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was also having a headache about how to deal with this matter.

Although a gag order was issued, the matter still spread quietly in the village.

If he didn't give up on redeeming the person, he didn't know how the ninjas in the village would look upon him, the Hokage.

After all, he had just started to establish himself as the strongest Hokage.

The will of fire also began to spread in Konoha, and his plan as the Hokage was at the most critical moment.

No one expected Hinata Makoto would actually do this. In Sarutobi Hiruzen's opinion, it would be better to just kill the assassination team directly.

Just as Hinata Shin expected, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not dare to take any risks easily.

He didn't want to meet that old bastard Hinata Makoto from the bottom of his heart.

Who the hell can hide for more than thirty years and still be so powerful at the end.

Sarutobi Hiruzen suspected that Hinata must have practiced some kind of extremely powerful forbidden technique and must have some great plans.

But now I'm under the fire, and not responding is not a solution.

Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to gather his old friends and disciples to think of a solution.

Danzo Shimura, Koharu Utane, Uchiha Kagami, Akimichi Tofu, Mito Kado En, Jiraiya and Princess Tsunade are all here.

Only Orochimaru was absent, citing important research as an excuse.

"You guys also know the news that's been going viral recently."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and exhaled deeply.

"You mean going to the Dark Ninja Village to redeem the captives?"

"The entire ninja world is now laughing at our five major ninja villages! How can we make concessions to the Dark Ninja Village?"

As a good friend of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo Shimura knew his thoughts well.

"What about you? What do you think?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not surprised at all after hearing what Danzo said, and then looked at others for their opinions.

"The Hokage is the leader of a village and should not take risks lightly. Besides, there is too little information about the Ninja Village right now. I don't agree with taking risks."

Mitomon En also came out to express his opposition.

"I mean the same thing." Utane Koharu also expressed her support for Mitomon En's statement.

"I don't have any suggestions. I fully support the decision of Hokage-sama."

Qiu Dao Qu Feng is a veteran who has an expert guiding him behind the scenes. He just plays tricks and says nothing.

"I agree with Toukou. I support your decision, Sarutobi."

Regarding this matter, Uchiha Kagami actually supports redeeming the captives in his heart, which is in line with his understanding of the position of Hokage.

But seeing that other teammates had no such intention, I knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen probably didn't want to go.

Then he followed the opinion of supporting Qiu Daoqufeng. There are smart people behind this guy, and there will be no harm in following his side.

"Old man, I don't recommend you go. The Great Toad Sage said that Hinata Shin is very dangerous!"

Jiraiya refused with a serious face, he believed in Toadhead's words without a doubt.

He always holds a strong hostility towards Hinata Makoto.

"I'm going to make dinner for Rope Tree. Don't inform me about this kind of thing in the future."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tsunade, she did not express anything. She just said that she was going to make dinner for her brother and didn't care about such things, so she left.

"Grandpa Shin, I don't believe you are the kind of person the rumors say you are!" Although she had received warnings from the slippery ancient forest slug sage, she still believed in Hinata Shin.

Princess Tsunade basically doesn't believe in anything the village preaches, she only believes in her own feelings.

Princess Tsunade was also a little worried about the problem between the village and Hinata Shin, so she simply chose not to help either side and let them deal with it on their own.

In the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not too angry about Tsunade's rude behavior. This was Tsunade's character.

Not breaking through the wall was considered a courtesy to him as the Hokage.

"But if I don't go, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the major ninja clans."

"The Aburame, Inuzuka, Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Chou clans, and the Uchiha clan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Akimichi Toukaze and Uchiha Kagami meaningfully.

His purpose is self-evident. He needs Akimichi Torikatsu and Uchiha Kagami to take the lead. If the major captured ninja clans take the initiative to persuade them, Sarutobi Hiruzen will not have to take the risk to rescue them.

Then he, as the Hokage, can shut up everyone and stay out of it.

After all, he was a master of conspiracy and soon thought of a way to break the deadlock.

"Jing, Qufeng, I'm afraid this matter still requires the efforts of both of you."

Mito Kado En took the initiative to take over Sarutobi Hiruzen's words and expressed what he was thinking.

Utane Koharu and Shimura Danzo were also looking at them.

Although Jiraiya felt that this was not a good idea, he had no objection considering the overall situation.

"I'll go back and discuss it with them. I can't make the decision on this matter."

Akimichi Norifu naturally understood their purpose. Although he was very unhappy, he did not directly answer Mitomon En's question.

"I also need to go back to the clan to discuss it." Uchiha Jing was not too stupid after all. This time he did not make the decision directly for the clan.

He also discovered that there had been a lot of resentment within the clan recently about his closeness to Sarutobi Hiruzen and the damage to the family's interests.

"Well, I'll give you two days. After two days, I will gather all the ninja clans and jonin to hold a jonin council to discuss this matter. I hope you can take the lead."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the two of them sincerely, but he didn't say how to take the lead.

I believe Akimichi Tofu and Uchiha Kagami can understand this.

A master of manipulating power like Sarutobi Hiruzen would never leave himself any room for criticism.

Akimichi Tofu and Uchiha Kagami nodded but said nothing.

"Jiraiya, I need you to go to Myoboku Mountain and ask the Great Toad Sage if he has more detailed information about the Ninja Village and Hinata Shin."

"What the Dark Ninja Village is doing now is equivalent to declaring war on the five major ninja villages!"

"It even intends to become the sixth largest ninja village, which will inevitably cause great damage to the balance of the ninja world."

"Now the Dark Ninja Village is being run like an iron barrel by Hinata Shin. If it is really as predicted, our five major ninja villages must take measures."

"The more information we have at that time, the fewer casualties there will be. You know that."

Sarutobi Hiruzen instructed Jiraiya.

"Got it, old man! I'll be there in a minute."

Jiraiya agreed readily. This was a task only he could do and no one else could do it instead.

"That's it for now. The Jonin Council will be held in two days. Everyone remember not to be late."

Sarutobi Hiruzen hypocritically reminded everyone.

On the other side, the Kages from the other four major ninja villages were also having headaches.

Hinata's move was really mean!
If it is not publicized, then whether to save it or not is up to them.

Now, they are spreading the message directly to the entire ninja world, and using the ideas promoted in their respective villages to completely kidnap them.

The gossip in the village could not be stopped, and the gag order had little effect.

The propaganda ideology that had been used as a knife to achieve success in the past had now become chains that bound their hands and feet.

After all, the lower-level ninjas in the village have been brainwashed by these things and are easily led by public opinion.

Longing for their shadows, they can practice the ideological will promoted by the village.
