Chapter 140 Civil War Phantom God(1/2)
Konoha Village.
Next to the Naruto office, in the high-rise conference room, four senior officials of Konoha and a group of Uchinobu gathered here.
"There is a truce in the Iron Hidden Village! But we must agree to our conditions!"
"That's it! We have such a huge price, have we let them go so easily?!"
"If you continue to fight, the village can no longer support you!"
"I won't beat Iwaki now! Sooner or later, there will be four battles!"
"I support fighting again!"
"You must defeat Iwai Hikaru!"
"Iwaki will not pay compensation, then fight!"
Everyone was talking, and the war-first faction was in full swing.
The third generation of Naruto Sarutobi Hiro's face was as deep as water and fell into silence.
Danzang, who was beside him, smiled in his heart, but on the surface he was silent.
Since Jiraiya and Naofeng defeated Iwaii's army on the front battlefield of the Northwest Front, the Naofeng Mizuno team successfully blew up the Kamibuki Bridge. The Iwaii's army suffered heavy damage and finally withdrew from the Kingdom of Grass and returned to the territory of the Kingdom of Earth.
Afterwards, facing the armistice agreement that Konoha took the initiative to hand over, Iwaikawa's third-generation Tukawa Onoki expressed his agreement to the truce, but Iwaikawa would not compensate Konoha as the defeated party.
Some ninja tribes who suffered heavy losses in the war expressed strong dissatisfaction, and many of the ninjas disagreed with Iwaii's conditions.
If it is in the early and middle stages of the war, as long as Iwai is willing to truce, most people will definitely be willing to truce, even if they give up some benefits.
After all, in the early and mid-stage stages of the Three Wars, Konoha was attacked from all sides and faced the siege of the four major ninja villages, his combat power was very tight. If Kushina and Shiraoha had not defeated the third generation of thunder shadows, I don’t know when this war would be fought.
However, since Yun Yin withdrew his troops and Orochimaru defeated Saemi again and recovered Kikyo Castle, the situation changed instantly.
Konoha is now fully capable of freeing up his hands to deal with Iwaki.
It is true that some conservatives are right. Konoha suffers heavy losses in this war. Continuing the war also delays the time for restoring energy.
But for the pro-war faction, if they have died so many of their companions and tribe members, if they cannot obtain some compensation for profit, wouldn’t their tribe members die in vain!
What is needed to cultivate ninjas is resources and money!
Is it that electricity is generated for love?
Konoha suffered heavy losses, and other villages suffered significant losses. Now if Konoha is determined to continue fighting with Iwaii, Iwaii will definitely not be the opponent. If he faces a village alone, no ninja village is Konoha's opponent.
After all, the Hinata clan and Uchiha clan on the Eastern Front have joined forces to repel the Hinata Village. It is only a matter of time before the Hinata clan completely defeats Hinata.
"I can understand everyone's ideas, but the village really can't continue to fight again, so we can only accept Iwaki's conditions." Sarutobi Hiruza looked at everyone in the field apologetically. The risk of fighting again was too great, so he chose the most stable way.
"I will not continue to consume Iwaki's troops now, and they will make a comeback sooner or later. In all the ninja wars, Satsuki and Iwaki took the lead. Some time ago, Satsuki Village proposed to form an alliance with the village. You agree not to pay compensation for the third generation. That's because Satsuki Village is too poor, so it's okay if you can't afford the money. However, Iwaki will definitely be able to take out the compensation we asked for. Just stop the fight like this, Iwaki would never agree!"
The elder of the Heiju clan said in a deep voice that he was very indignant about Sarutobi Hinashen's behavior. In this war, nearly half of the ninjas of the Heiju clan were killed or injured. In addition to the ninjas who volunteered to participate in the Wood Exit Experiment, the elites of the Heiju clan were almost completely lost.
If it weren't for the rebirth of the rope tree's broken limbs and the power of the wood escape was awakened, the Thousand Hands Clan would have died in name only.
"If I fight again, I'm willing to go to the battlefield first!" Shengshu spoke. Since he awakened the power of Wood Exit, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds and has approached the Shadow level.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed helplessly, not knowing what to do.
At this time, Naofeng Mizuno on the side spoke, "Everyone, the third generation of lords also have his own difficulties. If you continue to fight against Iwai, you must lead your army into the land of the Tu Kingdom.
The terrain is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and fight in different places, and the opponent has a favorable advantage, so our ninjas cannot gain any advantage.
Once you fall into a protracted war, logistics support is a huge problem.
If we suffer setbacks in the territory of the Land, we are likely to be unable to even protect the current results.
The war has had a great impact on the village's economy. Ending the war early is also restoring peace early, so that the village can recover its vitality as soon as possible.
In this war, we have died too many companions and sacrificed too many ninjas.
Giving up the compensation is really a helpless move!”
The words of Hatsuki Mizuno were reasonable and very pertinent, and many grass-roots Chinese natals agreed.
After all, even if they receive war compensation, the family will get the big deal, and these people will make even less profit.
Even if they exclude interests, this battle will exhaust them. Even if they are the Supreme Ninja, they will have to have a certain amount of luck to survive. They really don’t want to fight with the enemy anymore.
Dead family, friends, and companions cannot be compensated by a little money, and there will be more victims when the war continues.
It's time to end the war!
"I'm so light, without war compensation, wouldn't our tribe members die in vain?!"
As soon as Hakushimizu Gate finished speaking, someone refuted it.
The seats on the butt are different. Even if the Naoki Mizuno says it makes sense, they cannot agree.
Hakusuke Mizuno was about to argue again, but the first Sarutobi Hinako showed relief on his face and waved his hand at him, signaling him not to say anything again.
"Even if you don't have war compensation, Iwaki Village will not thank Konoha. That old fox of Onoki will still attack Konoha as long as you have the chance." Danzo, who had been silent, said lightly.
At this time, Sarutobi Hizawa stood up and said with shame: "Everyone, as a third generation of Naruto, I will take responsibility for this incident and the wrong decisions in the war."
"How do you be responsible?" Danzo asked.
Sarutobi Hinaru looked straight at Danzo and said, "I will resign from the third generation of Naruto!"
"What?!"
"Third generations of adults, you are not as good as this level!"
"Three generations, things have not reached this point, and anyone will make mistakes."
When he heard that Sarutobi Hinaze was about to resign from the Naruto position, many young ninjas were panicked. After all, during his tenure for more than 20 years, he had achieved great achievements, at least he worked diligently, and many policies implemented gave civilians a path to promotion. Many small and medium-sized families and ninjas from civilian origins supported him very much.
Unfortunately, because of the Shuomo incident, many people were heartbroken, and with strong people like Kushina and Bai Yu, the village was not retained, which caused Sarutobi Hina to lose its reputation.
Some command mistakes in this war are actually not a big problem. The most important thing is to win the war.
On the Western Front, Orochimaru took dozens of Uenin as bait in order to win less and recover Kikyo City with more than ones, and suffered heavy casualties. However, most ninjas could understand Orochimaru, because even if they were going to die, Orochimaru was facing many powerful enemies on another front and rushed to the front of the battlefield.
A series of key problems in Sarutobi Hinasen have exploded in recent years, which has greatly reduced his support in the Upper Ninja.
Of course, he still has a high level of support among the villagers because many policies have allowed the people at the bottom to gain tangible benefits.
"No need to persuade you. I will meet Lord Daming in the near future and mention this matter to him. In addition, you can elect the candidates for the fourth generation of Naruto. Those who have been recognized by everyone will succeed the fourth generation." Sarutobi Hizun continued.
Danzo narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect Hizawa to resign from the position of three generations so decisively. He originally thought Hizawa would definitely occupy this position for a few more years.
If Hitomi abdicates, Orochimaru will definitely be the most promising candidate to become the Naruto.
Today's inciting the ninja clan to attack Japan is the result of Danzo's recent efforts to do many parties. After all, in this war, many ninja clans are counting on obtaining war compensation after victory.
Danzo was afraid that Sarutobi Hinata would delay the election of the fourth generation after the war for various reasons, so he wanted to take this opportunity to pull him off the position of Naruto as soon as possible.
As it turns out, Danzo's abacus was not wrong.
......
The incident of Sarutobi Hinata being about to abdicate caused a sensation from Konoha.
Even Daming advised him to continue to be the Naruto many times. After all, for Daming, as long as Konoha is stable and able to continue to win in the war, it is enough.
Not to mention how capable and achievements Sarutobi Hinasen has, but at least three victories in the ninja world war were won in his post.
What Daming wants is the result.
At that time, he was most optimistic about the fourth generation of Naruto heir, Haki Sakumo, had committed suicide. It was not much different for anyone else to be Naruto.
The one who calls for Konoha's successor to the fourth generation of Naruto was Orochimaru. Because Jiraiya repeatedly stated that he would not compete for the fourth generation of Naruto, a considerable number of Uenin who supported him chose to support his disciple Hatsuki Mizuno.
With the amazing performance of the third Ninja World War, Mizuno made his reputation catching up with three people. The order issued by the senior management of Iwahidun Village that "can give up the task without being punished when encountering a golden flash" is enough to show his recognition of his strength.
However, what surprised everyone was that the support rate was similar to that of Mizunomiya, not Tsunade, but the leader Shimura Danzo at the root.
Since the First Ninja World War, Danzo has assisted the three generations and has performed actively in World War II and Three.
If it weren't for his cold-hearted style, perhaps his approval rating wouldn't be lower than Orochimaru.
At this time, in the headquarters of the root, Orochimaru and Dan hid in the bottom floor to talk.
"Danzang, why is the experimental subject you promised to give me missing?"
Orochimaru's face was slightly dark and he asked.
When his experiment was carried out at a critical moment, the number of experimental subjects was not enough, which made him very upset.
Not only was the curse seal experiment stagnant, but the Wood Escape experiment progressed very slowly, and now even his most important reincarnation forbidden technique is in a bottleneck.
"Don't you care about the ownership of the fourth generation of Naruto at all?" Danzo's face was slightly dark, and he was a little dissatisfied with Orochimaru's attitude.
Orochimaru said: "Don't you understand yet? No matter how many candidates are for the fourth generation of Naruto, the old man's support is the key."
This is Orochimaru's confidence. He believes that with so many years of master-apprentice relationships and mutual understanding, the Third Generation will definitely choose him. Although Orochimaru is not very interested in the Fourth Generation Naruto, if the Third Generation chooses him to become the Fourth Generation, he will still be a good Naruto, cultivate a suitable successor as soon as possible, inherit his position, and then continue the experiment.
At present, Orochimaru's most desirable person is Rose Tree. After he awakened Wood Exit, he has become a powerful man with Konoha.
"That Hokumizu Sect is a big threat. With his performance in the third battle, he will be your strong rival. Aren't you afraid that the third generation will turn to support him?"
Danzang continued.
To be continued...
