Konoha. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the Hokage's office.
The three generations of Hokage were still sitting in their office chairs with their pipes in their mouths, busy sorting out the scattered documents on the desk, but their eyes were fixed on the Uchiha Matsuri and Ha Feng Mizumon, with a kind look on their faces.
"You two did a very good job on this mission. The third Hokage said with a kind smile on his face, "After blowing up the Kannabi Bridge and blocking the rear supply line of the Iwa Shinobi army, Onoki and Iwa Shinobi will naturally be defeated without a fight." ”
It can be said that the withdrawal of Iwa Shinobi is entirely due to the Uchiha Matsuri team and the Bo Feng Shuimen squad, among which, the Uchiha Matsuri who successfully blocked (actually killed) the loess and 5,000 Iwa Shinobi is no less credit than the three Maitkai who blew up the Kannabi Bridge with their own hands
It's just that, as usual, the three generations of Hokage did not hype up the merits of the Uchiha Festival, but seized on the fact that the three of Sarufei Asma blew up the Kannabi Bridge, and packaged the three of Sarufei Asma, Maitkai and Sunset Red as the heroes of Konoha in public opinion.
As for the Bo Feng Shuimen team and the Uchiha Festival, they naturally became the green leaves that accompanied the three of Ape Fei Asma.
For this result, the Uchiha Festival actually expected it a long time ago. It's just that, unlike in the past, this time, "involved" by the Uchiha Festival, Bo Feng Shuimen did not become the protagonist in the stories that people passed on by word of mouth.
The real protagonists are the three Maitkai who grew up in the war as juniors, and the Kakashi trio who paid the price of casualties for the victory of the war.
"That's it for the debriefing of the mission, Watergate, you can go back and rest. The third Hokage spat out a circle of green smoke and said to Bo Feng Shuimen.
"Hmm. Bo Feng Mizumon glanced at the Uchiha Matsuri before turning around and leaving the Hokage's office.
With the sound of the door closing, there were only two people left in the huge office, the three generations of Hokage and the Uchiha Festival.
"Hokage-sama, is there something wrong with leaving me here alone?" the Uchiha Matsuri asked first, noticing the subtle change in the expressions on the faces of the three generations of Hokage.
"I do have something to talk to you about. The third Hokage tapped his pipe and said with a smile to the Uchiha Matsuri, "Matsuri, do you remember the task I gave you three years ago?"
"Yes. The Uchiha nodded and continued, "Three years ago, you entrusted the Asma trio to me to personally supervise and train them......
Three years ago, in order to get the Uchiha Festival to agree to be the leader of the Sarutobi Asma trio, the three generations of Hokage deliberately ordered the Uchiha Festival in the form of a mission, so that he reluctantly agreed to his own arrangement.
For three years, in order not to distract the Uchiha Festival, the three generations of Hokage even promised the Uchiha Festival that for three years, they would not have to do the tasks assigned by the "root" department.
In a flash, three years have passed, and the three of them have grown from three ignorant graduates to three Optimus Pillars that can support the operation of Konoha .
It can be said that the Uchiha Festival has perfectly completed the tasks assigned to him by the three generations of Hokage.
"Three years have passed, and Asma and they have all become shinobi who can take charge of themselves. Moreover, in the just-concluded Battle of Kannabi Bridge, the three of them also personally blew up the Kannabi Bridge, changing the direction of the entire war......" said the three generations of Hokage to himself, his face full of pride and satisfaction.
"So, the three-year covenant will expire even if it starts today?" Uchiha Matsuri followed the words of the three generations of Hokage, and secretly pondered.
As disciples of the Uchiha Festival, the three of Sarutobi Asma can already break away from the Uchiha Festival and carry out the mission alone.
From this point of view, the Uchiha festival has no meaning for the teacher.
"That's right. The three generations of Hokage picked up his pipe and said gently, "Under your tutelage, Asma and the three of them have become three excellent shinobi. And you, you have successfully completed the task I assigned to you. ”
The excellent performance of the three Maitkai in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, as the actual commander of the Konoha army, the three generations of Hokage saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts.
It is precisely because the performance of the three Maitkai is already outstanding, therefore, taking advantage of the expiration of the three-year contract, the three generations of Hokage plan to remove the Uchiha Festival from the position of leading the team Shinobi.
"So, shouldn't I return to the 'roots' now?" said the Uchiha Matsuri chuckled and sat down on the couch with his hands folded.
"No, you still have a mission. The third Hokage put his hands flat on his desk and said slowly, "This task is the last task I have assigned you. As soon as you complete this task, you can go back to the 'roots', and I will not give you any more tasks in the days to come. ”
After hearing the words of the three generations of Hokage, the Uchiha priest hurriedly waved his hand, half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Don't, Hokage-sama, you should send me more tasks in the future, I'm still very happy to make sacrifices for the Hokage and Konoha ......"
To tell the truth, although he has been pitted by the three generations of Hokage many times before, in his heart, the Uchiha Festival is still very happy to do things for the three generations of Hokage.
Compared with the "roots" of Shimura Danzo, the three generations of Hokage undoubtedly have a bigger stage by their side.
Entering the "root" department, the Uchiha Festival is like being locked in a cage by Shimura Danzo, losing the freedom he once had, and losing his own personality and development space.
Therefore, after realizing the fact that he was "assigned" to the "root" department, in secret, the Uchiha festival was still very eager to break away from the "root" department and return to the front desk of Konoha .
It's just that the Uchiha Festival is not stupid. It can be seen that the people who "assigned" themselves to the "root" department were not Shimura Danzou and Orochimaru, but the three generations of Hokage who secretly controlled everything and wanted to lock him firmly.
Now, in terms of strength, the Uchiha Festival has reached the pinnacle of elite shinobi. However, according to the rules of "Root", even if he has shadow-level strength, as a member of the "Root" department, the Uchiha Festival still has to serve the leader of Shimura Danzo unconditionally.
This kind of hard and fast rule, for the aspiring person of the Uchiha Festival, is like a shackle, firmly locking his present and future, so that he will serve Konoha unconditionally for the rest of his life.
"After that, it's not up to me to say......" The three Hokages smiled mysteriously, and then shifted the topic to the content of the mission, "...... Let's talk about the mission!"
"According to the information provided by the informant, the Fog Hidden Village is planning an attack on the Daimyo of the Fire Nation......" The third Hokage looked at the Uchiha Matsuri with a sad face, "So, I need your strength." ”
