Chapter 422: Dispute (8)
"The reason why the four generations of Thunder Shadow suspect that Kotaro Tanaka's sneak attack did not cause much damage to Tsunade, according to my estimate, there should be two reasons - first, Tsunade who was supposed to be in a poisoned state did not show the slightest sign of poisoning, and second, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow thought that his series of attacks could not be taken by the injured person!"
"Seeing that the four generations of Thunder Shadow gradually weakened their attack strength, Tsunade's mind turned, and he understood why the four generations of Thunder Shadow weakened their attack strength!"
"So, in the next battle, Tsunade, whose injuries in his body were rebounding, not only did not reduce his attack strength, but intentionally strengthened his own attack strength!"
"After feeling the strength of Tsunade's attack, and seeing that the other ninjas of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village did not break through the defense line of Konoha and Takihide Ninja Village, the four generations of Thunder Shadow had to order a retreat again - this retreat of the four generations of Thunder Shadow took away Kotaro Tanaka, who had been exposed!"
"After it was confirmed that the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow would lead the team away, Tsunade, who was relieved, immediately fell unconscious!"
"After Tsunade fell into a coma, the injuries in Tsunade's body could no longer be suppressed - the next second Tsunade passed out, the injuries that broke out made Tsunade's seven orifices bleed!"
"Thankfully, the slugs who helped Tsunade remove the neurotoxin have not yet returned to the Wet Bone Forest, so our ninjas on the Konoha side immediately sent Tsunade to the slug's eyes - the slug's treatment of Tsunade allowed Tsunade's life to extend until you returned to Konoha from Yingzhou Island!"
(The shinobi sent by Konoha to the Takikushi Ninja Village to protect the Seven Tails Pillar Force knew that slugs had the ability to heal.) )
Seeing that the three generations of Hokage finished speaking, Hinata Ichiro asked, "Hokage-sama, after the second retreat of the four generations of Thunder Shadows, did our ninjas on the Konoha side immediately escort the seriously injured and dying Tsunade Sensei back to Konoha?"
"Yes!" said the third Hokage, "Ichiro, since the Takikushi Ninja Village is helpless against Tsunade's injury, therefore, the Takikushi Ninja Village has no choice but to let the ninjas on our Konoha side send someone to escort Tsunade back to Konoha!"
"Of course, escorting Tsunade from Takikushi Ninja Village back to Konoha was done without the help of Yunyin Ninja Village!"
"Hokage-sama, didn't the Takikushi Ninja Village send someone to escort Tsunade-sensei back to Konoha?" Hinata Ichiro asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Yes!" Hokage-sama, "Ichiro, the Takikushi Ninja Village has sent several elite shinobi to join the team escorting Tsunade back to Konoha!"
"Nakashinobi !!" Hinata Ichiro sarcastically said, "Hokage-sama, the Takikure Ninja Village really uses Konoha as an ally!"
"Ichiro, don't say anything that is not conducive to unity!" the third generation Hokage waved his hand and said, "Besides, the Takikushi Ninja Village still needs to concentrate its forces to resist the plundering of the Seven Tails of the Takikushi Ninja Village by the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
Hearing the three generations of Hokage say this, Hinata Ichiro no longer dwelled on the fact that Takikushi Ninja Village only sent Nakashinobi to escort Tsunade back to Konoha.
"Hokage-sama, Nanao of Takikure Ninja Village has been saved?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Ichiro, the plundering team of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is still staying in the Takihide Ninja Village, so it can't be said that the Nanao of the Takihide Ninja Village has been saved yet!" said the third Hokage.
"Alright!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Now that I know the cause and effect of Tsunade-sensei's injury, I won't say anything superfluous—now, I want to ask Hokage-sama something!"
"Ichiro, you say!" said the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, what are you going to do about Tsunade-sensei being plotted and attacked by our Konoha own people?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Ichiro, after learning about Kotaro Tanaka's betrayal, I immediately ordered the Dark Department to investigate Kotaro Tanaka's network in Konoha!" The third Hokage said, "After confirming that Tanakataro has no problem with Konotaro's network in Konoha, I will announce the news of Tanakaro's betrayal of Konoha!"
"Hokage-sama, is Konotaro Tanaka a native of Konoha or an orphan taken in by Konoha on the battlefield?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Ichiro, Kotaro Tanaka is a native of Konoha!" said the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, since Kotaro Tanaka is a native of Konoha, why did Konotaro betray Konoha?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Ichiro, based on what has been investigated, I believe that Kotaro Tanaka's rebellion was influenced by the Nine-Tails attack on the village!" replied the third Hokage.
"The impact of the Nine-Tails Attack on the Village?" Hinata Ichiro asked with a puzzled expression, "Hokage-sama, why is Kotaro Tanaka's rebellion related to the Nine-Tails Attack on the Village?"
"Ichiro, in the Nine-Tails attack on the village, Kotaro Tanaka's relatives were all killed by the Nine-Tails!" said the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, since the Nine-Tails attack on the village, the Konoha higher-ups have not noticed Kotaro Tanaka's abnormality?" After listening to the words of the three generations of Hokage, Hinata Ichiro frowned and asked.
"Ichiro, of course we noticed the strangeness of Kotaro Tanaka!" said the third Hokage, "It's just that we attributed Kotaro Tanaka's strangeness to the pain of losing a loved one and didn't think much about it!"
"Hokage-sama, what are you going to do with Kotaro Tanaka's rebellion after the news of Kotaro Tanaka's rebellion is announced?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Ichiro, when the news of Kotaro Tanaka's rebellion is announced, I will issue a hunt and kill order to Kotaro Tanaka through the Shadows - if the timing is right, the Shadows can kill Tankotaro on the spot!" said the third Hokage.
"What about the responsibility of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village?" Hinata Ichiro asked, "Hokage-sama, is the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village not responsible for the serious injury and dying of Tsunade-sensei?"
"Ichiro, of course the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is responsible!" said the third generation Hokage, "It's just that Konoha at this time should not conflict with the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
"Hokage-sama, according to you, Konoha plans to do nothing other than give a hunt and kill order to Kotaro Tanaka through the shadows?" asked Hinata Ichiro.
"Yes!" said the third Hokage, "Ichiro, Konoha at this time should focus his main energy on post-war construction!"
"Hokage-sama, I'm disappointed by your decision!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Ichiro, the reality of Konoha doesn't allow us to mess around!" said the third Hokage.
"Hehe!" Hinata Ichiro first sneered twice, and then sarcastically said, "For Kotaro Tanaka, who is chasing and killing the mutiny, Konoha needs the right timing, and for the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village that lured Kotaro Tanaka to rebel, Konoha needs to calm down - Hokage-sama, please tell me what Konoha can do!"
"Ichiro, you can't say that!" Hearing Hinata Ichiro's sarcastic words, the three generations of Hokage's face sank, and said, "Konoha today's peace is not easy to come by, so we must know how to cherish it!"
"If you seek peace through struggle, you will live in peace, and if you retreat, you will make peace, and if you retreat, you will die peacefully!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, blindly retreating will not make Konoha peaceful!"
"Besides, even if Konoha gains peace from retreat, such a peace is false and short-lived!"
"Ichiro, then you're just thinking!" said the third Hokage.
"Alas-" Hearing the three generations of Hokage say this, Hinata Ichiro sighed first, and then spoke: "Dao, different, don't conspire with each other - Hokage-sama, it seems that the differences between us are difficult to reconcile!"
"......" Regarding Hinata Ichiro's words, the three generations of Hokage were silent.
"Hokage-sama, please also approve my resignation from all my official status in Konoha!" Looking at the silent three generations of Hokage, Hinata Ichiro spoke.
"Ichiro, what do you mean by that?" asked the three Hokages in surprise.
"Hokage-sama, for some things, since you don't want to do them, then let me do them!" Hinata Ichiro said, "So, since Konoha doesn't want to cause more trouble, then please approve me to resign from all my official status in Konoha!"
"Ichiro, do you really want to do this?" asked the third Hokage in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, I'm really going to do this!"
Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro remembered that he was an active ninja of Konoha and spoke again: "In addition, I also ask Hokage-sama to approve my retirement from the ninja army!"
"Ichiro, whether you resign from all your official status in Konoha or you retire from the ninja army, what if I don't agree?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, if you don't agree, then I'll have to announce my personal decision to the outside world privately!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Of course, I hope you agree to my personal decision - if I announce my personal decision privately, it will make the official face look bad!"
"Ichiro, isn't there room for manoeuvre!" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, since you can't give me what I want, there is no room for manoeuvre at all!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Ichiro, since I can't persuade you, then I'll let Hinata persuade you!" Looking at Hinata Ichiro, the third Hokage spoke.
(Since the three Hokage thought that Tsunade was still in a coma, the three Hokage did not offer to ask Tsunade to persuade Hinata Ichiro.) )
"Hokage-sama, if you want your father-in-law to persuade me, then I don't think you have to!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Why?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, because I will give up my identity as the heir of the Hyuga family!" Hinata Ichiro said.
"Ichiro, it seems that you are going to go your own way!" Hearing that Ichiro Hinata would give up his identity as the heir of the Hyuga family, the third generation Hokage said.
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, you have things that you value, and I have things that I value, so, once again, I beg you to approve my personal decision!"
"Ichiro, what would you do if I approved your personal decision?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, on the premise that you have approved my personal decision, I will go to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village in a month to seek justice!" Hinata Ichiro said, "If the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is willing to give me a satisfactory explanation, then I will be fine with the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro paused and said in a cold voice: "If the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village is not willing to give me a satisfactory explanation, then I will erase the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the map!"
Hearing Hinata's chilling words, the three Hokages remembered yesterday when Hinata Ichiro easily bulldozed an uninhabited barren mountain.
"Ichiro, it seems that what you said yesterday about 'blood debt and blood payment' is not a casual remark!" said the third Hokage.
"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, in my eyes, a thousand dollars are hard to make a promise—since I have spoken my words, I must match my words with deeds!"
"Ichiro, do you really have the ability to wipe the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village off the map?" the three Hokage questioned.
"Hokage-sama, I really have a way to wipe the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village off the map!" Hinata Ichiro replied with a confident expression.
For the confidence on Hinata Ichiro's face, the three generations of Hokage don't know if it's true or not.
However, although it is impossible to tell whether Hinata Ichiro's confidence is true or false, the three generations of Hokage still have to say what should be said.
"Ichiro, if you really erase the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the map, then Konoha won't be able to tolerate you!" said the third Hokage, "Because once you erase the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village from the map, then Konoha will have to give an explanation to the Land of Thunder!"
"Hokage-sama, what if Konoha can't tolerate me!" Hinata Ichiro said, "It's a big deal that I won't enter Konoha again for the rest of my life!"
"Ichiro, let me think about it first!" said the third Hokage, "I'll give you an answer in a few days!"
"Three days!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, after three days, if you don't approve my personal decision, then I will announce my personal decision to the public in private!"
"Ichiro, why are you so stubborn!" said the third Hokage.
"......" heard the three generations of Hokage say that he was stubborn, and Hinata Ichiro was silent.
"Ichiro, you go back first!" Seeing Hinata Ichiro's silence, the third Hokage said, "In three days, I will give you an answer!"
"Good!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Hokage-sama, in three days, I will wait for your reply!"
With that, Hinata Ichiro turned around and walked out of the Hokage's office.
Seeing Hinata Ichiro leaving, the three generations of Hokage immediately asked one of the dark ninjas guarding the gate to notify Mito Menyan, Zhuankou Koharu and Shimura Danzo to come over - for the matter of Hinata Ichiro, the three generations of Hokage need to negotiate with Mito Menyan, Zhuan Koharu, and Shimura Danzo.
……
——————————
The Hyuga family.
When he returned to the Hyuga family, Hinata Ichiro learned from others that Jiraiya came to visit Tsunade.
After learning that Jiraiya, who was visiting Tsunade, had not left yet, Hinata Ichiro changed his decision - before, Hinata Ichiro had planned to meet Tsunade who had woken up first, and then go to Hinata's study to discuss things.
As soon as he turned around, Hinata Ichiro walked towards Hinata Hinata's study.
……
Den.
In the study, Hinata Hinata and Hinata Ichiro sit opposite each other.
In front of Hinata, Hinata Ichiro told Hinata about the personal decision he made in the Hokage's office - of course, Hinata Ichiro also told Hinata Hinata why he would make such a decision.
"Ichiro, I don't think you need to do this at all!" After listening to Hinata Ichiro's narration, Hinata Hinata said with a complicated face.
