Which One Were They Supposed to Kill?

After Tsunade was confirmed as the Fifth Hokage in the Hokage election, other ninja villages also learned of the news thanks to the announcement by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

The Land of Lightning, Cloud Village.

Upon receiving the news, the Lightning Shadow's decision-making team, including the Elders, held a meeting to discuss countermeasures.

"Tsunade disappeared for so many years, has actually gone back to be Hokage."

"Tsunade is the granddaughter of the God of Shinobi, and with her title as one of the legendary Sannin, it's no wonder she became Hokage."

"We also need to choose a candidate for the Lightning Shadow position as soon as possible."

At this point, the Lightning Shadow's decision-makers all turned their attention to Darui and Xi.

The position of Lightning Shadow has always been headed by the Lightning Shadow Yotsuki Clan, who also inherit the name A.

However, the Fourth Raikage did not have a son, so who will become the Lightning Shadow is now a problem.

Darui and Shi were the right-hand men of the Fourth Raikage when he was alive, and they are fully qualified to take on the role of Lightning Shadow and become the Fifth Raikage.

Darui scratched his head. "Why don't you be the Lightning Shadow, Hiei?"

hope chuckled awkwardly, "I'm not suitable."

After some discussion, Darui Lightning Shadow.

hope's fair skin caused her to fail the political background check.

The Land of Earth, Iwagakure.

Tsuchikage's Office.

Ōnoki rubbed his aching back while reading the document he was holding.

"The granddaughter of the God of Shinobi became the Fifth Hokage?"

Ōnoki's gaze sharpened, and he instinctively thought of another man.

The sense of pressure it brought him when he was young still makes him a little scared now.

However, there is another matter that is currently on his mind, which he only learned about not long ago.

The Fourth Raikage died in battle.

Both major ninja villages have suffered heavy losses, while Iwagakure remains unscathed!

However, after careful consideration, Ōnoki shook his head.

Although the Fourth Raikage died in battle, there are still two Tailed Beast left. If pushed to the limit, they will definitely use the power of the Tailed Beast.

Of the two Tailed Beast from Iwagakure, only one remains in the village; the other, Roshi, left under the guise of continuing his training.

"Akatsuchi, go and call Han here."

"Yes."

Sound Village.

The room was dimly lit by torches.

"Go and bring Sasuke here!"

Orochimaru, his hands trembling uncontrollably and his face beaded with cold sweat, said, "Also, if you find a Red-haired Kid in Konoha, kill him!"

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru." Kidomaru and the other three nodded.

"You want to take my daughter to seek Senjutsu? Do you want to ascend to heaven?"

Hyuga Hiashi abruptly stood up from his seat.

"I'm serious," Kanami said.

Having calmed down, Hyuga Hiashi asked solemnly, "Why? Why do you still want to become stronger?"

As the Hyuga Clan Leader, he had some knowledge of Senjutsu.

But in his opinion, Kanami was already very strong, and the other party's serious expression didn't seem like he was joking.

"Because there are many enemies that are not yet visible, and they are very strong, the closest of whom is the Akatsuki Organization."

Kanami didn't actually want to say these things; it would be too troublesome to explain.

"The Akatsuki Organization? How did you know that? I just found out."

Um?

Kanami was still wondering whether he should tell Hyuga Hiashi about the Akatsuki Organization from the Hyuga Hiashi, but he didn't expect that Hiashi already knew.

Curious, he asked, "How did my father-in-law know about Xiao?"

"I learned this from an important meeting held in Konoha yesterday. How did you find out about such a secret?" Hyuga Hiashi replied.

"The elephant told me," Kanami blurted out, "How did you manage to sneak into the Konoha meeting?"

Upon hearing Kanami's words, Hyuga Hiashi into a smile.

Well, that's a long story.

"Then you'd better not say anything."

Kanami pulled Hinata and turned to leave.

"Don't go!"

Hiashi Hyuga Hiashi grabbed Kanami.

He had been keeping this matter to himself, and was wondering who to brag to. He was about to burst with pent-up frustration when Kanami asked him about it. He immediately thought of how he could impress his son-in-law and daughter!

How could we let them get away?

Kanami chuckled and turned around, "Then get to the point."

"I used your name to extort 50 million ryo from Utatane Koharu! At the same time Hyuga Clan became one of the major clans in Konoha's decision-making body!"

Hyuga Hiashi his nose pointing to the sky, looking quite arrogant.

However, all the gazes directed at him were filled with disdain, including Hinata's.

Kanami: "???"

So you, old Deng, were trying to murder me?

"You didn't cast my vote, did you?"

"Uh, yes, I cast the votes, but not all of them. I can only decide on a dozen or so votes at most," Hyuga Hiashi said awkwardly.

He also realized that his behavior was somewhat inappropriate, after all, he hadn't informed Kanami beforehand.

Kanami nodded. "Then it seems there are others who have voted for me."

As for Hyuga Hiashi's ability to easily become a member of Konoha's decision-making body and participate in meetings, Kanami wasn't surprised at all.

With this connection, even if I don't get this opportunity now, I'll get another one.

Those old foxes are just conservative, not truly stupid.

It's understandable that they want to keep him in the village and elevate the status of the Hyuga Clan.

What he cared more about was who else besides Old Deng had voted for him, which was nearly half the votes.

"You know a thing or two about the Akatsuki Organization, so I won't explain. Their leader is very strong. With my current strength, I can protect myself, but what about you?"

He didn't intend to tell Old Deng about the conspiracies within the Akatsuki Organization, at least not now.

Hyuga Hiashi glanced at him sideways.

For me? It's obvious who it's for!

However, upon hearing Kanami's words, a slight smile still appeared on his lips.

"I won't say much more, I just have one request..."

Kanami interrupted, "Take good care of Hinata. Don't worry, I'll definitely bring you back a Big White Chubby Boy."

Hinata blushed and hung her head.

"You dare!" Hyuga Hiashi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Haha, just kidding."

With a whoosh, the two disappeared from the spot.

On a rooftop somewhere in Konoha Village.

"Ah, they got in so easily. Konoha is really neglecting us."

Kidomaru tilted his head.

"Should we go find Sasuke first or kill that Red-haired Kid?" Jirobo asked.

"Find Sasuke first. Sasuke is more important to Lord Orochimaru. As for the Red-haired Kid, just kill him when you encounter him."

"Hey, look over there, Red-haired Kid." Sakon pointed to the street Alley below.

"Heh, what a coincidence? Since we've run into him, let's kill him. This kid's just unlucky!" Kidomaru sneered, preparing to make his move.

At that moment, Tayuya, stopped him.

"Wait, Kidomaru."

"What's wrong? Why won't you let me finish the mission quickly? Do you have your eye on that brat?" Kidomaru teased.

Tayuya cursed, "Idiot! Look over here, there are two more Red-haired Kid."

The other three Sound Four followed the gaze and were immediately dumbfounded.

"What happened? Who should we kill?"

"Just kill them all and that will solve everything!"

Just then, they suddenly saw another patch of red in the distance.

"... Should we still kill them?"

"Find Sasuke; Lord Orochimaru's vessel is more important."

"That's what I think too."

The Sound Four decided to search for Uchiha Sasuke. As for the Red-haired Kid, they would kill him if they saw him, but they didn't see him.
