Jonin Conference.

It is usually a routine matter, and every year the Konoha high-level officials above the jonin level hold a meeting.

However, this Jonin Conference is a little different, because the war is becoming more and more obvious. Many people have already predicted that the battle will be fully launched by the middle of next year at the latest, and the flames of war can no longer be contained.

At the conference, Shinzo, an unknown Chunin, rarely appeared at the table, and many people looked at him with strange eyes.

But no one said anything. As the saying goes, a new emperor appoints new ministers. After Sarutobi Hiruzen came to power, he made a lot of adjustments at the top level. Promoting a Chunin was just a big deal.

At the upper level of the conference, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat in the middle Hokage seat.

'Sitting next to him was Danzo, but one body length behind him.

Next are Mitomon En and Utane Koharu.

"Everyone should be aware of this conference. Konoha needs to unite to face the external enemy."

Hiruzen came up and dispersed the pressure, then spoke slowly.

"First, let's talk about the internal affairs."

"Danzo has been restructured and appointed as the leader of the Root. His specific duties include training ninjas in the Anbu, but the Root has the right to act on its own."

This was a briefing, not a discussion. Everyone knew that they had no right to make suggestions regarding Danzo and Hiruzen, at least not now.

"Next are Mitokado En and Utane Koharu, who serve as advisors to the Hokage and also as members of the Konoha Elders Council."

Hiruzen looked down at the manuscript in his hand. It contained some of what Utatane Koharu had written for him, as well as some content he had added himself.

"Akimichi Tofu, you are the temporary leader of the jonin squad, a member of the elders council, and in charge of all jonin reporting matters."

In this way, the five former members of the second-generation guard team all had the highest status.

Fortunately, Uchiha Kagami died, otherwise he would be even more embarrassed, because no matter what, Uchiha Kagami would never join the Elders Council, even the Uchiha clan would not agree.

For the Uchiha clan, the Uchiha clan can join the Elders Council, but Uchiha Kagami cannot!

But for other families, it’s just three words, why!

Is it because of your strength, experience, or noble status? Or is it just because you have the Uchiha last name? Stop kidding!

"The Anbu Experimental Department has been adjusted and temporarily placed under the Root. The Anbu's authority has been slightly changed. They still report directly to the Hokage, but the experiments have been transferred."

"At the same time, Orochimaru has been temporarily transferred to the Root with the Experimental Department to assist Danzo."

These were all planned in advance, and now they have just been announced and finalized by the charter. Before that, everyone present already basically knew the contents.

Hiruzen put down the manuscript, took out his old pipe and took a puff.

As he watched the smoke curl up, Hiruzen couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.

Now, he also sits in this position.

"Okay, if there are no objections, then next we will appoint some of the jonin."

"Mitarai Toumaru, temporarily appointed as Special Jonin."

"Kato Dan, promoted to elite jonin."

"Kumekoto, draw and rise to jonin."

"Uchiha Fugaku, promoted to Jonin."

"Inuzuka Jaw, temporarily appointed as Special Jonin."

"Akido Hall East..."

......

"Shinzo, promoted to jonin."

Most of the people on Hiruzen's list are well-known ninjas in Konoha. Basically, they all have their own network of relationships, and there are very few people that everyone doesn't know or understand.

However, there are two strange points in this list.

First, as Hiruzen's three disciples, Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade have not made any progress.

It is obvious that all three of them can be promoted to elite jonin, especially Tsunade, whose contribution to Konoha Hospital is obvious to all. Although Orochimaru is low-key, is the laboratory a place where anyone can stay for years?

As for Jiraiya, he is relatively rare in the village, but all the ninjas who have returned from the front lines admire the white-haired guy.

Second, there is a name at the end of the list that no one knows.

"Shinzo? Which lucky guy?"

A Hyuga ninja sitting next to Gu Zang curled his lips and muttered.

The same noise occasionally echoed elsewhere.

"Quiet!"

Mitomon Yan took the initiative to come out and preside over the discipline of the meeting.

"Shinzo is a teacher at Konoha School. He has made great contributions and has saved Konoha. He has made great contributions to the development of the village. His contribution to the anti-undercover cause cannot be ignored."

Hiruzen read the manuscript which even Kozo himself would blush upon hearing.

"In view of Shinzo's unwavering will of fire and his great contributions to the village, the elders have decided to promote him to the rank of Jonin as a reward!"

slam-la-

Sparse applause broke out, and it was obvious that not everyone agreed with Hiruzen's words "contribution". You said contribution, how come I don't know about it?

Especially Qiu Dao Qufeng, he was sitting in the first row below, eating snacks in a depressed mood. Did the elders decide this? I’m also a member of the elders, and I’ve never even seen this person named Xinzang!

At the end, Gu Zang covered his face. He originally wanted to introduce himself to the Hyuga ninja next to him, "I am Shinzo."

But after Sarutobi Hiruzen finished reading the script, he had no face left at all, so what was the point of introducing himself?

You said you are the Third Hokage, so it would be normal for you to mention anyone at random. Why do you have to add such a long list of people who sacrificed and dedicated themselves?

You did a great job on the paper article, but can you promise me you won’t do it again next time?

Of course, this was actually just a small matter, and everyone just quarreled about it and then forgot about it. After all, no one cared about the extra Jonin, they were just a little annoyed by Hiruzen's manuscript.

The highlight comes later.

Comments.

"The appointment and adjustment of the Jonin have been completed. Next, all the clan leaders, Jonin squads, and elders, please feel free to express your opinions on the development of the village."

In an instant, the Jonin Conference turned into a vegetable market. It was so chaotic that everyone wanted to speak louder to drown out the others, making it even noisier.

"Quiet!"

Mitomon En had no choice but to slam the table and stand up again.

"Speak freely, in order! Instead of one person speaking at a time, and then another, with all this noise, when will we ever be able to resolve all the problems?"

"You are all well-known ninjas, so here is the basic order! This is a meeting of Konoha's top leaders!"

"Alright Yan, everyone is also anxious about the construction of Konoha~"

Hiruzen patted Mitomon En, pulled him back and sat him down, playing the good guy.

"But everyone, let's proceed in order. First up is the Jounin class, Takefu."

Hiruzen nodded towards Akimichi Tofu.

Qiu Dao Qufeng threw the snacks in his hand into the arms of the tribesman next to him and stood up, which made the Qiu Dao tribesman next to him very happy.

He didn't know that it was okay to eat snacks on such a solemn occasion.

"I do have a comment."

"Kakaka~"

"It's actually about the Elders Council."

"Chew~Crack~"

Snapped--

Qiu Dao Qufeng slapped the snacks out of the hands of the tribesman next to him and knocked them to the ground.

He ate my snacks and interrupted me while I was speaking. This guy is so tactless. I won’t bring this guy to the next meeting!

Qiu Dao Qu Feng continued gloomily, "I believe many people have a question: what kind of organization is the Elders' Council? What are its responsibilities and powers? How are its members determined? And how are they appointed and dismissed?"

After Qiu Dao Qu Feng said this, the whole place fell silent.

Hiruzen and Akimichi Tofu stared at each other.

Qiu Dao Qu Feng: Go ahead and tell me, you asked me to ask, isn’t this something that everyone is wondering about?

Sarutobi Hiruzen: Are you one of us, the fuck?! I've already put you on the Elders' Council, and you're questioning them?! You're so rebellious!
