Tsunade was slightly startled and turned his head sharply.
"Old man, you?"
Mitokado and Utatane Koharu were shocked.
What a joke!
Hiruzen Sarutobi This Hokage left the village, these consultants who were so old that they were about to be buried, had to be eaten away by a group of young people who were like wolves and tigers?!
"Hiruzen! No!"
"No! How can Hokage leave the village without authorization? He should be at the base camp of the village to stabilize the morale of the army!"
Shimura Danzō has fallen.
Now Sarutobi is leaving the village, if something unexpected happens...
The two of them glanced at Shinji Uchiha involuntarily.
Obviously, they are very worried that Shinji Uchiha will attack the old man!
Hiruzen Sarutobi seemed to have completely lost his fighting spirit, and he waved his hand with a look of boredom.
"Okay! I have decided! No need to say more."
"..."
"..."
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu looked at each other.
The two of them suddenly looked like they had aged more than ten years, completely slumped on Chair...
It's over!
All is lost!
I saw everyone giving me looks of surprise, surprise, and disbelief.
Hiruzen Sarutobi Scan them one by one.
Eyes met with Shinji.
"I have stayed in the village for too long... I want to go out for a walk and see if Shinji can answer the prayer of an old man like me?"
He looked serious.
Hiruzen Sarutobi understands.
From this moment on, his Hokage Position has existed in name only...
This scene is so similar to that of the past!
So.
Why stay in the village and be a "Puppet"? Presumably the combat information will appear directly in the hands of Shinji Uchiha, right?
"Kumogakure's Raikage brothers cannot be handled by Tsunade alone. Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B is called Perfect Jinchuriki, Two-Tails Jinchūriki The same is true for Yugito. Moreover, Tsunade's current situation is very dangerous on the battlefield... Furthermore, I also want to ask Raikage for an explanation regarding the Hinata kidnapping incident back then!"
Shinji remained silent.
Hyuga Hiashi has a serious expression and his eyes are not squinting.
He didn't show any extra emotion towards Hiruzen Sarutobi's words.
Everyone looked at Shinji, waiting for his answer.
"Okay."
Shinji smiled, "Of course. As for the village, senior Shikaku will take care of it for the time being, in the capacity of Acting Hokage's consultant?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi thought for a while.
nodded.
"Okay."
Shinji smiled and said, "In that case, let's adjourn the meeting. Everyone, the fighting chance is fleeting. Please rush to the front line today to fight against the enemy!"
"Yes--!!!"
--
"Uchiha Clan Head!"
As soon as Shinji walked out of Hokage Building, Hyuga Hiashi followed him.
Shinji looked back at Tsunade who was also stopping behind him, as if he wanted to say something.
He looked helplessly at Hyuga Hiashi.
"Do you have anything?"
"Let's find a place."
"... Okay."
Shinji could only smile apologetically at Tsunade, and then left with Hyuga Hiashi.
After a while.
Hyuga Hiashi poured a cup of tea for Shinji and pushed it over, "Does Uchiha Clan Head think I am a fool, a bloodless Clan Head?"
"..."
Shinji glanced at the tea cup and shook his head.
Hyuga Hiashi sat upright, every movement seemed to be carved out of a mold, and was precise.
"I would like to take the liberty of asking, why doesn't Shimura Danzō die?"
Shinji raised his eyebrows, "Hyuga Clan Head What do you mean?"
"He should have died!"
Hyuga Hiashi stared at Shinji, veins popping out on his temples, "I can see with these eyes!"
"But why did he die?" Shinji asked in return.
"Because he killed your parents!"
Hyuga Hiashi dispersed Byakugan, "Isn't this enough?!"
Shinji smiled.
"But... wouldn't it be more interesting to keep him awake and in a state of death? In fact, anything that happens in the outside world... he can clearly detect. Life is worse than death... It is more interesting than death."
"Hyuga Clan Head think death can solve any problem? No, it is a means of punishing people. You should really go to Interrogation Room and learn from those guys at the Yamanaka Clan."
Hyuga Hiashi,"No, you are not this kind of person..."
"?"
Shinji tilted his head, "Do you know what kind of person I am?"
Hyuga Hiashi did not answer, but looked at Shinji and changed the topic.
He said seriously, "Uchiha Clan Head, the day you fought Shimura Danzō, do you know how much I wanted you to kill him?"
"If you had done that, on that day, at that time, Hyuga Clan could have stood with Uchiha and impeached Hiruzen Sarutobi!"
Shinji nodded, took a sip of tea, "Impeachment... heh, you continue."
"It was Hiruzen Sarutobi who decided to let Hyuga Clan sacrifice his people to avoid war with Kumogakure!"
Hyuga Hiashi squeezed the cup tightly, "I'm fed up with his hypocrisy! When he came to the clan in person, he didn't say anything on the surface, but I knew exactly what he wanted to say and what his purpose was!"
"So...Shimura Danzō who covets Kekkei Genkai should be damned, but what's even more damnable is Hiruzen Sarutobi!"
Hyuga Hiashi is getting more and more excited.
"He is no longer the Shinobi Hero he used to be! He tolerated his anger in the face of enemies outside the village, but tirelessly suppressed and restricted his friends and family in the village!"
"His poor performance of generosity just now made me sick even more!"
Shinji lowered his head and drank tea, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Hyuga Hiashi leaned forward and bowed, "I used to be timid, but now... I don't want to continue!"
Said.
Hyuga Hiashi raised his head and stared at Shinji, his white eyes full of sadness.
His expression was unusually solemn, "Hizashi's death is a mistake that I can never make up for in my life! I chose to sacrifice him for the sake of my family. I pushed my biological brother to death. I cannot shirk the sin."
"But... Hiruzen Sarutobi also needs to bear his responsibility!"
"I bear half of Hizashi's death, but the other half is on Hiruzen Sarutobi's body!"
Hyuga Hiashi Byakugan erupted, with a terrifying amount of Chakra that made him lose control. He crushed the cup in his hand and blood flowed down...
"So, you found me?"
"That's right!"
Hyuga Hiashi said in a deep voice, "Now it is no longer a matter of Hiruzen Sarutobi abdicating or not. In fact, he has lost his power as Hokage."
"Now... only blood can wash away sins!"
Shinji picked up the teacup, groped for the patterns on the teacup with his index finger and thumb, narrowed his eyes, and was not in a hurry to give a clear answer.
This conflicts with his plan...
in his imagination.
In the future, there will be a young man who will turn the tide and save Konoha, make a huge contribution, and sit on Hokage Position amidst the cheers of everyone.
And through the influence of this generation of "civilians" Hokage, the past "hereditary" bad habits have been eradicated, and at the same time, hope has been given to a large number of civilian ninjas.
But look at what Hyuga Hiashi means.
He felt that the time had come... and couldn't wait any longer.
Still want to push him to the top?
"Hyuga Clan Head, then who do you think is more suitable to sit on Hokage Position in the future?"
"Princess Tsunade! Or Jiraiya!"
Huh?
Shinji looked at Hyuga Hiashi in confusion.
Hyuga Hiashi shook his head, "Uchiha Clan Head, it is impossible for either of us to sit in the position of Hokage after Hiruzen Sarutobi. There are a large number of civilian ninjas in the village. They will not want to see you and me owning Kekkei Genkai, and people from a huge family sitting on Hokage Position."
"If we do it forcefully, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble."
Shinji laughed out loud, "Senior Hiashi, the two of us have always been Clan Head Clan Head, we are so different, just call me Shinji..."
