Chapter Forty-Eight: The Land of Earth Invades
In the Hokage's office, the third Hokage said in disbelief: "Uchiha is quitting the Konoha Garrison Department?"
"Yes. Fugaku put down the seal letter and took two steps back, "After deep reflection, we believe that the Uchiha clan can no longer take on this heavy responsibility, so we have decided to withdraw from the security department. ”
The three generations of Hokage subconsciously thought that this was the strategy of the Uchiha clan to retreat into advance, and persuaded: "The entire Konoha, only you Uchiha are qualified to lead the security department, Konoha needs you, and you can't quit the security department." ”
"Three generations of Hokage, we're not joking. Fu Yue shook his head and said firmly, "This is the result of discussions between our clan, and everyone has unanimously decided that they will no longer serve in the Ministry of Garrison from now on. ”
When the three generations found out that the Uchiha was playing for real, they were mixed in their hearts for a while, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it really irretrievable?"
"We've decided, please three generations of Mu Yucheng!"
The three generations sat for a while, and then said slowly: "Since you have made up your mind, then I can't force it anymore, don't worry, after your family leaves office, we will not treat it badly." Also, in the future, if your clansmen want to serve in the garrison department, they don't need to take exams, just say hello, which can be regarded as a small compensation. ”
"Thank you for three generations. Fuyue nodded and left with Xiuyuki and Mingyu.
The third generation suddenly shouted: "Mingyu, you stay, I have something to tell you." ”
Mingyu hesitated for a moment and stayed.
After the door was closed, the three generations of Hokage hesitated for a moment, and said guiltily: "The previous incident was my fault first, and it hurt your heart......
"No," Mingyu interrupted, "you didn't do anything, don't feel guilty, if it were me, I would do the same." ”
The third generation raised his head and said with a smile: "I am very relieved that you can understand me." ”
Just seeing Mingyu's indifferent face, his smile was a little far-fetched, he knew that the rift had been caused, and the relationship between the two, the relationship between Uchiha and Konoha would only gradually drift away, and he would never be able to return to his original appearance.
Some things, if they are wrong, they are wrong, and they can never be undone.
There was an embarrassing silence in the office, and after a long time, the three generations asked, "You family, what are your plans for this time?"
He was still a little unsure of Uchiha's thoughts, Uchiha actually took the initiative to quit as usual, it was really not their style, could it be that they were planning something?
"Leading the Garrison Department is Konoha's trust in us, and it is also the glory of our clan. It's just that since our clan took up the post of the Garrison Department, we have always had mixed reputations, are highly suspicious, and our relationship with the people has become more and more stiff. After this incident, we thoroughly figured out that if we want to live a peaceful and stable life, we must leave the security department. Mingyu said lightly, "We don't plan to do anything, we just hope to live a peaceful life like Hinata." ”
The third generation looked ashamed, and said in a deep voice: "In this case, you can rest assured, as long as Uchiha has no dissent, we Konoha will never treat Uchiha badly." The reputation of the No. 1 wealthy family in Konoha will not fall like this. ”
"With your commitment, we have peace of mind. ”
Mingyu said goodbye to him and left the Hokage's office.
The three generations of Hokage looked at the closed door and sighed slowly, in the past, Mingyu left directly from the window, but now he walked through the main door, which means that the relationship between the two is the same as everyone else, it is all business.
The morning sun of early summer shone into the room, and the huge room was silent, only the soft sigh of the old man.
……
After leaving the Hokage's office, Mingyu did not forget the agreement with Itachi, and made an appointment with Sunset, and the two took Itachi and Shisui to the orphanage in the suburbs to play.
At this time, Konoha behind them was stunned by the sudden explosive news.
The Uchiha actually took the initiative to bow his head and show weakness and hand over the power of the security department!,
This is the Uchiha, the Uchiha of the first wealthy family, the self-proclaimed noble Uchiha, the arrogant and rude Uchiha, and the domineering Uchiha!
The whole Konoha is a sensation!
At first, people thought it was nonsense, but after the news was confirmed, everyone's eyes fell out.
Then there was a lot of talk and speculation.
Some say that the Uchiha is retreating as an attempt to blackmail the upper echelons of the village.
Some say that the Uchiha was frightened by the formation a few days ago, after all, he is just a ninja, and he still has to bow his head obediently in front of the strength of the village.
Some also say that the Uchiha must have an ulterior secret, secretly plotting something, and with their unruly character, it is impossible to give in.
Some just sneered with disdain, and then laughed at the prestige of the first wealthy family, which is not in line with the truth.
There were even people who cheered and celebrated, shouting that this was a victory for the civilian population.
Anyway, there is a market for all kinds of theories, and in the midst of the loud and noisy discussions, in the strange eyes of everyone, the Uchiha clan handed over the task and all the members withdrew from the garrison department.
This was a historical event that meant the end of the Uchiha era of the Ministry of Garrison.
The three generations of Hokage did not treat the Uchiha badly, and after consulting with the two advisor elders, he made an exception and handed over a large number of war assets (including weapons, displaced people, land, etc.) to the Uchiha to manage, and the village only took a cut of 20% of the proceeds.
You must know that this is Konoha's state-owned assets, and this time Konoha is really generous, of course, there are no factors that make up for it and win it over.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately detonated Konoha's Sake House Teahouse, which was still singing about the decline of the Uchiha yesterday, and suddenly lamented that a wealthy family is a wealthy family, and yesterday it was still praising the village, and today it immediately scolded.
But soon, the scolding and discussion disappeared.
The border is in an emergency, and the soldiers of the Land Country are divided into three routes, using the Land of Grass, the Land of Taki, and the Land of Frost to attack the northwest border of the Land of Fire!
The war, before it had completely subsided, sounded the whistle again.
At noon that day, Mingyu was urgently summoned by the three generations of Hokage and came to the wartime office.
The three generations of Hokage didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "The land of the earth sent three major forces of nearly 10,000 people to attack the northwest border from three directions, and the border is in an emergency, I have ordered Orochimaru and Mizumon to go north quickly and preside over the battle." ”
"Am I also going to the Northwest Battlefield immediately?" Mingyu said.
"No, I guess that the Land of Earth is just a test of the vanguard this time, they have to pass through three countries, the material supply line is not that long, and with Orochimaru and Water Gate in charge, they will not be able to attack for a while. The three Hokages shook their heads and said, "On the contrary, what I'm going to send you to is the battlefield of Kawanokuni. ”
"The battlefield of the country of Sichuan?" Mingyu said in surprise.
"That's right, on the battlefield of the country of Sichuan, we already have an absolute advantage, and now that the Great Snake Pill and the Water Gate have been transferred, the country of the wind will definitely attack again. The third Hokage said in a deep voice, "I want you to use this opportunity to cooperate with Jiraiya to behead the other party's leader, Yanluo Yayoi!"
"I see. Mingyu nodded, the country of wind used the terrain of the country of the river to maneuver with Konoha, originally with the addition of Orochimaru, Konoha had already occupied an overwhelming advantage, and the territory of the sand hidden in the country of the river was rapidly encroached, and the front line had advanced from the Kikyo Peak to the middle of the country of the river.
Seeing that the country of earth was defeated, it actually intervened, and Konoha was suddenly short of manpower in the country of Sichuan, especially Orochimaru and Mizumon went north, so that Konoha, who originally had an advantage in high-end combat power, was immediately overstretched.
This is a crisis, and the battle may enter a tug-of-war again, and it is indeed a great wonder that the three generations actually thought of using this opportunity to decapitate the enemy's leader ninja.
Mingyu took the order, went home to say goodbye, and embarked on the journey again.
This time, he wants to completely shine his light to the entire ninja world.
