Kakashi left, not far behind him, but just unnoticed, Makoto in red was standing there, watching the interaction between the students, he frowned slightly, as if he was a little troubled by something. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wail.

A crow suddenly startled, and its dark wings swept across the sky where several teenagers had left.

Makoto glanced up at the annoying bird, and a bit of cyan flame spawned out of thin air, burning its flesh and feathers in the blink of an eye.

Here, the bird seems to be a mascot? Makoto shook his head slightly, his gaze swept over a spot on the side of the street, said hello to the people there, and then disappeared in an instant.

The man in the shadows stayed a little longer, chasing Kakashi's direction.

Watergate came out of the tavern a little drunk, the weather was just right, and the golden sunlight was a little dazzling.

It was a lazy afternoon, and I drank a little more wine, and although my friend was very considerate enough to let him order it, the invading alcohol still made Watergate suddenly lazy, and instead of being in the village all the time, as in recent years, he kept walking slowly along the street.

Many people knew him, and they liked this new gentle-tempered technical minister from a civilian background, and if some of the village leaders were to see the scene at this moment, it would probably surprise and terrify many.

"Lord Watergate."

Watergate naturally got rid of the crowd, and heard a small voice in his ear say:

“…… The adult said, "Let you hurry over." ”

I'm really anxious.

Or maybe it's really because of the alcohol that makes Watergate a little wanton, and he thinks aimlessly, although there is no sarcasm in his heart, but there is also no respect.

So he restrained his smile, nodded slightly, and turned away in an instant.

“…… Watergate. ”

The man with long white hair and oil paint on his face has a complicated expression.

"Jiraiya-sensei, is that you?" Shuimen was slightly taken aback, and his expression became soothed, from this point of view, the purpose of the high-level officials to send Zilai to negotiate can be regarded as achieved.

"It's me." Zi Lai didn't dodge his gaze, he looked at the disciple in front of him, and his expression was serious: "Sincere...... What was his reply? ”

As the de facto controller of Uchiha now, Makoto has not appeared in the council of the Konoha high-level for a long time, and the second-qualified Uchiha princess, the Uchiha world, may be to show the unanimity of the entire Uchiha, living in seclusion, and never showing up outside the family, so now the spokesperson of the Uchiha family at the Konoha level is the young patriarch Uchiha Fugaku, and the vice-captain of the dark department, Uchiha Shisui.

With the support of the two sub-bases of the new rain country and the cat ninja, the ancient Uchiha family has the confidence to take a more active and energetic approach in the confrontation and compromise with the village, specifically the Konoha garrison and prison that have been held in their hands all the year round, the Uchiha semi-actively and semi-passively gave up a lot of positions to Hinata, Inuzuka and other ninja clans, and in exchange, the village also gave Uchiha an important position in the dark department, not only that, but in more aspects, the efforts of the two sides to eliminate the opposition together have become more and more effective.

Things are going in a good direction, as it was.

"Makoto said, yes, but he has a request."

Mizuto took a deep breath and avoided Jiraiya's gaze.

"What is it?"

"He can accept this task, but he wants full authority."

"Of course, the village will appoint him as the supreme governor of this task-"

"No, Mr. Jiraiya," Shuimen's blue eyes were calm, the drunkenness that had been foggy a moment ago had long since disappeared, and he said seriously: "I think, Cheng means that he wants all the rights and responsibilities of this task to attack the land of water." ”

Jiraiya's expression changed, and he looked at his disciple: "This is impossible, what do you think the village is?" ”

Shuimen was silent, and he still couldn't have too many antagonistic emotions towards his mentor, so he smiled bitterly: "This is the condition proposed by Cheng......"

Seeing that the water gate avoided his own opinion, and he said helplessly: "Even if Sarutobi-sensei agrees, it is impossible for the Hyuga family who are on a mission together to agree, and the relationship between Uchiha and Hinata, you don't know." ”

"And what if Hinata agrees?" Watergate is closing in.

Jilai also frowned and smiled, and slapped on Shuimen's arm: "You kid, are you colluding with that kid Cheng?" ”

Thinking of the wordless and embarrassing exchange in the tavern before, Mizuto sighed, still dutifully playing the role of being a person inside and out: "Anyway, it's not that there is a precedent for the supreme governor to have full powers, but the opinion of the Hyuga family is not easy to solve, right?" Then leave this matter to Makoto and let him solve it himself. ”

Seeing the disciple's casual appearance, Zilai was helpless again.

Most of the precedents for the supreme governor to have full power were in the early days of Konoha establishment, when Konoha Village was just a federation of various clans, and wars were often waged in the form of family troops, and it was natural that each clan chief had the absolute power and responsibility of his own family.

And since the establishment of the prototype of the modern ninja village system between the second generation of Hokage Thousand Hands, power has been concentrated in the structure of the village, especially in recent years, the formal classification of professional combat ninjas, it has pushed military centralization to a new height, in this classification, no matter what family of ninjas, as long as they wear Konoha ninja forehead guards, there is only one unified name - Shadows!

In other words, the Konoha Shadow Division is equivalent to Makoto's army in his previous life, and the ninja force like the garrison force is only equivalent to the police.

How could he not know that this more advanced system was proposed by Watergate himself?

However, the reason why there are precedents and special cases is because there are special circumstances.

From the "early days of the establishment of Konoha to the present", it is still impossible to integrate with this village, and can only be regarded as a family united with each other - Uchiha, isn't this exactly such a special situation?

"It's really difficult to get this guy Makoto to give up the dominance." Jilai also muttered to himself.

Mizumon smiled wryly when he heard this, which was the root of the struggle between him and Makoto between the two routes.

The common goal of developing the productive forces and striving for peace in the whole world has never changed, but Mizumoni believes that this is also the common desire of the ninjas, so it can be achieved with the help of Konoha - his country, while Makoto has never given up the leadership of the revolution.

Thinking of the many struggles between the village and the Uchiha in the history of Konoha, even though he was never prejudiced against the surname "Uchiha", Mizuto couldn't help but think:

Could it be that the Uchiha clan can't trust others completely?
