Impeaching the Third Hokage

The Third Hokage surveyed the Meeting Hall and confirmed that the Jonin who supported him Jonin from the Sarutobi Clan, the Mitokado Clan, the Utatane Clan, and the Shimura Clan.

In the past two years, in order to make up for the loss of Jonin in the Uchiha Clan, the Third Hokage urgently promoted 30...

Several civilian Jonin) must also support him.

Aside from these staunch supporters, Hiruzen Sarutobi could only trust seven Jonin: Might Guy, Genma Shiranui Gekko Hayate, Mitarashi Anko, Ibiki Morino, Namiashi Raidō Aoba Yamashiro.

When they saw Hiruzen Sarutobi, they not only bowed respectfully, but also expressed their deepest respect.

The other Konoha Jonin didn't have much goodwill towards the Third Hokage.

Most of the Konoha Jonin's eyes were filled with regret, dissatisfaction, and disappointment, as well as the relief they felt after a long period of disappointment.

The same applies to members of the Ninja Clans such as Shikaku Nara, Inoichi Yamanaka, Choza Akimichi, and Shibi Aburame.

A few Konoha Ninja remained expressionless, but their eyes burned with hatred, such as Hyuga Hiashi and Kakashi Hatake.

The Third Hokage silently calculated and realized that he could only gain the support of a maximum of one-quarter of the Jonin.

When did he, the Third Hokage, become so unpopular?

Shisui Uchiha stood up and said loudly, "I think many of you here don't know that this Konoha Jonin Assembly was not convened by the Third Hokage, but by me on behalf of Shazo."

"With the support and assistance of the Ninja Clans Clan Leader, and after seven days of coordination, all the Jonin of Konoha were finally gathered in the village for this Jonin Conference."

"According to the rules established by the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, when all Konoha Jonin participate, the Jonin Tournament automatically becomes the highest authority in Konoha."

"At this moment, as Hokage, Lord Hiruzen Sarutobi only possesses the privilege of two votes; all other powers are exercised by the Konoha Jonin Assembly."

"The sole purpose of this meeting is to impeach the Third Hokage!"

Boom-!

All the Konoha Ninja felt as if they heard an incredibly powerful explosion. The explosion was actually the screams of the Konoha Jonin, which made everyone's ears ring.

Impeach the Hokage!

This is the first time in nearly 58 years since the founding of Konoha that such an outrageous situation has occurred.

The invincibility of the First Hokage, the wisdom of the Second Hokage, the fierceness of the Fourth Hokage, and the longevity of the Third Hokage have created a fixed mindset among the Konoha Ninja.

That means the Hokage can die in battle, die of illness, or voluntarily relinquish the position, but cannot be overthrown.

For many Konoha Ninja, this is not just a mindset, but even a belief.

For example, the deceased Shimura Danzō firmly believed that the Hokage was supreme, and that as long as he became the Hokage, he could do whatever he wanted and solve all problems and troubles.

If Shimura Danzō were still alive, he would have jumped up and attacked Shisui Uchiha Konoha Jonin Assembly and using violence to stop the tournament from continuing.

Unfortunately, Danzo is already dead.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, though willing, only dared to stand up and rebuke Shisui Uchiha.

"This is outrageous! How can Konoha impeach the Hokage?"

"Jonin must obey the Hokage's orders; they are the Hokage's subordinates. How can they, as subordinates, dare to disobey their superiors and impeach the Hokage?"

"Shazo is just a Chunin, what qualifications does he have?"

The Konoha Ninja were very dissatisfied with the Third Hokage, but they also could not accept the Hokage being impeached.

Upon hearing Mitokado Homura's and Utatane Koharu's words, a considerable commotion arose among the Konoha Ninja.

In fact, Shisui Uchiha also found it difficult to accept the impeachment of the Hokage.

But his obedience was ridiculously strong. Once Shazo gave an order, he would go against his own will and follow Shazo's instructions, forcing himself to continue.

"Since the Fourth Hokage's death in battle, the Third Hokage has been the Hokage again for 9 years and 7 months."

"Over such a long period, Konoha has faced repeated provocations and crises, but the Third Hokage's performance has been disappointing."

" In the Year 55 of Konoha, the Uchiha Clan was attacked by traitors, Root, and enemies in Konoha, and the once-great clan was almost completely wiped out."

"So much so that the 14-year-old Lord Shazo Zuo had to step forward and use the Wood Release Secret Technique to prevent the annihilation of the Uchiha Clan and drive away the traitors and enemies of Konoha."

"The decline of the Uchiha Clan has attracted the covetous eyes of the Fourth Raikage, who has once again threatened war against Konoha and sent out his despicable Envoy Delegation once more—just like when Hizashi Hyuga was forced to commit suicide."

At this point, Shisui Uchiha couldn't help but look at Hyuga Hiashi.

Hyuga Hiashi closed his eyes, and he thought of his younger brother.

The younger brother who was forced by the Third Hokage to die in his place.

Shisui Uchiha continued, "As you all already know, Lord Shazo Zuo killed most of the Cloud Ninja, expressing our unwavering stance."

Ultimately, the Third Hokage changed his attitude and forcefully forced the Kumogakure army to retreat.

"But this year, the Cloud Ninja have come again, led by the Fourth Raikage himself. They've entered the Land of Fire directly and are even closing in on Konoha every day."

"But our Hokage did nothing, just watched as the Cloud Village ninja army stationed themselves in the Land of Fire, and watched them approach Konoha Village—"

Hearing this, Utatane Koharu, felt extremely wronged and couldn't help but protest, "You're talking nonsense! We did do things!"

"The Third Hokage sent a total of 15 waves of messengers to the Cloud Village ninja army, trying various methods to make them retreat, but the Fourth Raikage of Cloud Village refused to even see the messengers!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi clenched his fists, wishing he could strangle his classmate. His words were practically saying: The Third Hokage was a coward.

Even though the enemy had entered the house, the Hokage only dared to send messengers to request an audience with the enemy, but dared not send Ninja to drive away the invaders, nor did he himself confront the enemy.

Shisui Uchiha's pupils contracted slightly, but he ignored Utatane Koharu and said to himself, "So many days have passed, Cloud Ninja Army has advanced 200 kilometers. We can no longer remain indifferent."

"Therefore, Lord Shazo Zuo asked me to convene a Ninja conference to discuss the impeachment of the Third Hokage."

"I hereby formally propose that Konoha Chunin Lord Shazo enter the Konoha Jonin Assembly to question the Third Hokage."

Mitokado Homura stood up and said loudly, "This is the Konoha Jonin Assembly! How can a Chunin be allowed to participate, let alone question the Lord Hokage Chunin? This is simply—inconceivable!"

Shisui Uchiha expressionless, but his pupils had shrunk to the size of pinpoints, and his inner world was in turmoil.

[My goodness, Lord Shazo Zuo guessed right about Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura's reactions! He's truly amazing.]

[No, Lord Shazo Zuo said I can't show any excitement!]

[Hold on! Shisui Uchiha! You can do it!]
