"Let's get Tsunade back next."

When Jiraiya first entered the Hokage's office, Hizaku directly said what he was thinking, and suppressed Jiraiya, who wanted to say something.

Compared to Kakashi and the others, he actually returned to the territory of the Fire Country earlier, but for some reason, he did not enter Konoha directly. It wasn't until Kakashi and the others returned to Konoha for about half a day that they could return to Konoha, and they still looked like they were hanging and idle, which made Hinata feel a headache and helplessness when he saw it.

The three most important students in their own right, Tsunade went away, Orochimaru betrayed Konoha, and the only one left was Jiraiya, although he maintained a certain connection with the village, but when he encountered real things, he only knew how to shirk responsibility, which made Hizaku sigh more than once.

"Please, so serious, aren't you going to die, old man?"

Looking at the day as if he was making a will, he couldn't help but make a joke, destroying the original serious atmosphere.

Hinata coughed violently twice, glaring fiercely at Jiraiya, although his physical function did decline to a certain extent, but not to the extent of completely stepping into the coffin board.

According to his own estimates, if he takes good care of his body in the future, there will be no problem if he continues to survive for more than ten years.

When necessary, he can even contribute his last remnants to the village like the Hokage of the previous generations.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I can hold on for another ten years."

"Who believes this kind of thing, maybe it will go directly to the coffin next year."

"So it's imperative to bring Tsunade back and pass on the Hokage throne to her. Recently, my health has been getting worse and worse, and every day when I deal with government affairs, I get distracted from time to time. “

Hizai wasn't joking, he looked at Jiraiya with serious eyes and pleaded with him.

Jiraiya was silent for a moment and said, "In the past few years, I have revealed the meaning of the village to Tsunade more than once, but the effect is minimal. And, don't forget, Tsunade is as young as I am, already fifty years old. “

In other words, even if Tsunade is really invited back to Konoha and let her serve as the fifth Hokage, she may not be able to rule for more than ten years, or even less.

Considering this situation, be mentally prepared to change two Hokage in a row within ten years.

But there is no consensus on the selection of the next generation of Hokage.

Although he was also very willing for Tsunade to come back and take over the position of the fifth Hokage, there were still some things that needed to be said, lest the village should be overwhelmed and waste time and energy on this kind of thing, so that Konoha would stagnate.

Sanren is no longer a young man, and at their young stage, there is not much room for growth in strength, and it can basically be said that he has reached the peak of his life.

After hearing this, Ri Chop also pondered slightly and asked, "Do you have any good candidates?" “

There are indeed many powerful ninjas in Konoha, and from a comprehensive point of view, Tsunade is also the most suitable candidate to succeed the position of the fifth generation Hokage, but it is related to the future development of Konoha, Tsunade will not be in power for too long, and Jiraiya's concerns about the day are understandable.

"How's Kakashi?"

Jiraiya looked at Hizai and asked.

His behavior is more like a temptation.

Sure enough, Hizai, who heard this, did not speak immediately, but sat there and stared at Jiraiya with a strange look.

Zilai was not afraid to look at him.

"That incident is in the past, there's no need to hold on to it, whether it's for compensation or Kakashi's own ability, he's good enough to be the Hokage after Tsunade. Don't forget, his teacher is the fourth Hokage. “

I don't like politics either.,I don't know much about political struggles.,But Richo is his mentor.,He can feel it faintly,

Hisashi was always a little wary of Kakashi.

And the source of this vigilance can also be guessed from the beginning.

It is likely to be related to the suicide of Konoha White Fang in the past.

But these things are in the past, and Kakashi is also growing, letting go of this past and becoming an indispensable part of Konoha.

As the Hokage's Hizai, he shouldn't be thinking about this kind of thing all the time.

"Do you think so? At that time, I didn't expect Shuo Mao to make that choice. “

"None of us want to see that happen. To be honest, I'm not 100% sure that Tsunade will return to Konoha to take over as the fifth Hokage, and if things turn out like that, Kakashi will be the best replacement. “

Zilai also spoke his heart.

With Kakashi as the second choice, in this way, whether Tsunade agrees to return to Konoha or not and take over the position of the fifth Hokage, Konoha has room to turn around.

Hinata carefully considered Jiraiya's words.

Since he regained the power of the Hokage, there have indeed been many problems within Konoha that have not appeared before, and it has become inevitable that the root tail will not be lost, and the voice of the martial arts faction is getting louder and louder, and the power of the group has become so strong that even the Hokage cannot be uprooted.

Faced with such a predicament, Rizai couldn't help but worry in his heart.

It doesn't make sense to say that the roots should be bigger, the matter is a foregone conclusion, and now what we have to think about is to decide where the next Hokage belongs.

"I'll wait until Tsunade comes back."

Hearing Hizaki's answer, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment in his heart.

But he quickly perked up and said, "Assign me two groups of dark parts, I have suddenly broken off contact with Tsunade recently, and I need the assistance of the dark department." ”

The loss of contact with Tsunade has also happened from time to time in the past few years.

Tsunade sometimes finds his harassment so tired that she will secretly change her face, cut off contact with anyone, and go to a place that no one knows about to continue her path to the fat sheep.

Every time contact is restored, it takes half a month or even a month to prepare.

If it's usual, you can also find it slowly, but now that the task has been officially issued here, then, naturally, you have to restore contact with Tsunade as quickly as possible, find her location, and convey the will of the Japanese slash.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you, no matter what, this time it can't be Tsunade's temperament.

In the face of the righteous and strict words of the sun, Zilai also smiled slightly bitterly.

is already humble enough to beg others to be the Hokage, how can it not be the other party's temperament.

That's why he wanted Kakashi to be included in the list of alternate Hokage, in order to give Konoha a back path to choose from.

"Really, I wanted to rest in the village for two days, I was born to work hard. Then Naruto's side please, the signs of that organization's recent activity are becoming more and more obvious. “

"Hanabi, when did you come back?

In a mansion full of ancient charm in the Hyuga clan, Hinata met her sister Hanabi walking in the corridor and showed a surprised face.

After the Shinobi exam, she thought that Hanabi would stay in the country of ghosts for a while, so she didn't expect Hanabi to return to the village so soon.

"Why are you so surprised? Originally, the meeting with the Hyuga clan over there was just a target for others to be used as a prestige. Because I can't make adults lose face, I have to let a little child go over and bear these pressures. “

Hanabi's mind is clear, and she naturally knows what the intention of the family is to let her go to the country of ghosts as a child to visit the Zhongnin exam competition.

Because if she, a child, doesn't appear, it's the adults who will lose face.

"Yes, yes?"

Hinata was a little confused, didn't understand the meaning of Hanabi's words, and always felt that she was venting her dissatisfaction.

"And when did you come back?"

"I came back two days earlier than you, and at that time, you had always set your eyes on your Naruto-kun, so I didn't bother you.

Hanabi's eyelids were raised, as if she was looking at her sister Hinata.

Hinata, who was hit by the fireworks, suddenly turned red.

"No, there is no such thing!"

"Oops, even the voice of defense is so small... This must be a lie, right? It's really not like something that the eldest lady can do. “

"Really, why is there a sister like you?"

Hinata had also fantasized that it would be nice if she had a sister who wasn't so strong and didn't like to play tricks.

Is it so fun to tease an older sister?

"What's wrong with me?"

Hanabi has a strange complexion.

"You're not cute at all as a sister."

"Sister, shouldn't you secretly go behind your father's back and read some idle books?"

Hinata was speechless.

"No, have you really done it?"

Hanabi became interested, took a step forward, walked directly in front of Hinata, raised his head and stared at Hinata, pressing her, her small body was full of a sense of oppression that could not be ignored.

"I ...... I'm my sister.

Hinata who said this sentence seemed to have used all the courage she had accumulated in her life to determine her status as an older sister.

As a result, it still sounds so unconfident, and his face is completely saying things like 'stop bullying me'.

But in the eyes of Huahuo, on the face of his sister, there has always been a 'I'm a good bully, come and bully my obvious words, it's hard to ignore.'

"Then hurry up and confess."

"Huh?"

"Otherwise, that yellow hair is going to elope with someone else, and then it will be you, the eldest lady, who will be ridiculed. Alas, why am I not a boy, it's really cheap. “

"Yi?"

Hinata looked at the fireworks in a daze, she understood the previous sentence, but how to understand the latter words?

Did Hanabi say something terrible?

"What are you talking about?"

"It's the latest buzzword, and even a kid like me understands it. However, sister, you are really innocent, if you continue like this, it will end in a fiasco, obviously you have such a good body advantage, it's a pity not to take advantage of it. “

Hanabi stared at Hinata's body.

"Wait, Naruto-kun won't..."

I couldn't understand Hanabi's intentions, so I blushed and hugged my chest and stepped back, as if I was guarding against Hanabi as if I was guarding against hooligans.

"You really like him."

Halfway through the conversation, he was interrupted again by fireworks.

"I'm going to ignore you anymore!"

Sure enough, my sister is something.,It's not cute at all.。

Hinata fled in a depressed mood, and in front of the fireworks, she felt as if she was naked, and she didn't even have clothes to cover her body, and she was completely seen through.

Such a sister both scared her and made her helpless.

"There's an important clan meeting later, don't forget to attend."

Looking at her sister's embarrassed posture of escaping like a ruined dog, Hanabi didn't know why her mood was suddenly full of joy.

Whether it's because she's shy in love, she doesn't dare to express it, but she's innocent, like the sister of a puppy and Bawang's crush, or her sister who is teased by her younger sister and constantly falls into a tangled dilemma, these postures make Hanabi feel very funny.

If there is no annoying clan meeting in the future, today is undoubtedly a good day, and you can leisurely give yourself a half-day off.

Hanabi has never been very fond of formality.

But in a wealthy family full of ancient atmosphere, it is inevitable that you often have to look up and see these ancestral systems.

Since she was a child, the word she heard most often was the word rules.

Everything is clearly hierarchical, including the people who live here.

And if you violate this will, you will be punished by the rules, and you will try to disturb the judgment of the lower class people who have committed the crime.

Regardless of the reason, right and wrong, and no explanation from the parties, the words and deeds of the sect are authoritative and cannot be questioned.

But this kind of authority, in the face of a more powerful authority, will inevitably humbly bend the torso.

Especially in today's situation of strong external persecution, Huahuo can imagine how unwilling and angry the clan elders of these clans are in their hearts.

One of the manifestations of incompetent rage is to hold a clan council to punish the losers as a way to demonstrate their infallibility.

In the majestic and solemn conference room, there is no such thing as a modern conference table, and the tradition of the past is still retained, with a soft cushion on the ground, and the elders of the clan and the branch of the clan who participate in the clan meeting sit on the floor, and everyone looks at each other.

Before deciding on the next generation of clan heirs, whether it is Hinata or Hanabi, they are all members of the clan at this moment.

The two sat next to the patriarch Hizu, only a fist in between.

But compared to being calm and calm, and having seen all kinds of fireworks in the world, Hinata is very unaccustomed to such a scene, and his eyes show a little nervousness.

If it weren't for this clan meeting, participation would be mandatory. Even if it wasn't mandatory, she didn't necessarily have the courage to refuse.

Compared with Hanabi's ability to adapt independently, she is more like a delicate doll that only expresses absolute obedience to orders, even if she has an independent mind.

Her nature was also overwhelmed by the family's short rules.

The number of meetings is increasing every year, and they are becoming more and more frequent. The fireworks swept over the crowd present, and this kind of question was thought of in their hearts.

Compared with the previous year, the number of clan meetings held this year has exceeded the total number of the previous year.

Before Hinata didn't come back, she held three meetings in a row of unknown meanings, and she wanted to take a nap at the meeting.

But in line with the identity of the second daughter of the Zong family, she must always maintain the elegance and dignity of the daughter of the Zong family, otherwise, she should have a rare stroll on the street at this time, buy some of her favorite puppet toys, and if there is still time left, maybe she will continue to cultivate.

It's all worth more than participating in such a meaningless clan meeting.

Even after the middle ninja exam, she returned to the village immediately, which was ordered by this group of sect elders, for fear that she would have some accidents outside.

Hanabi has always believed that too many meetings with unclear core values have always been a bad performance of an organization, a family, and even a country.

Unfortunately, she is now about to undergo the terrible baptism of this unclear clan meeting.

"Regarding the matter of losing the game, Ning Ci, do you have anything to explain?"

Hinazu asked.

There was not the slightest hint of joy or anger in his majestic expression, and it seemed that he was just asking if he had eaten breakfast in such a mundane way.

"Nope."

Ning Ci replied simply.

His mental state was not very good, and although he had a half-day rest in the morning, he still felt a little sleep-deprived.

But at such times, you can't show your desire to sleep.

He looked at his father's position, and then looked away, no matter what, his failure could not be on his father's side.

"We are not people who do not distinguish between right and wrong, although we have lost a lot of face to the family for your failure, we have also seen the lack of preparation on our side from the side."

A patriarch spoke.

Hua Huo unexpectedly glanced at the patriarch of the sect, and did not expect that he would exonerate Ning Ci.

Are these old guys modified?

"Next, we will send the upper ninja within the clan to conduct one-on-one counseling and cultivation for you, so that you have the confidence to catch up with the person who defeated you?"

The patriarch asked again, staring at Ning Ci's eyes.

Ning Ci still cherished the words like gold and shook his head: "No." “

Ning Ci didn't like to lie, and it was pointless to send Shangren to guide him in his cultivation.

Unless the clan is willing to open up those more advanced jutsu techniques that cannot be taught to the clan, otherwise, the help of the clan Shangnin may not be as great as the help brought to him by his own guidance.

Therefore, it is completely pointless to lie and deceive the favor of the sect.

He had watched the video of the final afterwards and knew that the white-eyed ninja named Aya Ganba was far superior to him.

If he wants to catch up with the opponent's current level, under the premise that the Zong family is fully open to him, he will need at least three years of cultivation.

But let's not say that the sect family will not do this, and the other party will not stay in place all the time.

Three years will only widen the gap between the two sides.

The next time they meet, he may be defeated by the other party more cleanly.

Sure enough, Ning Ci's words aroused the dissatisfaction of many clan elders.

"As an excellent ninja cultivated by the family, he actually said such words to boost the morale of the enemy."

"Maybe it's because I'm dissatisfied with the Zong family and don't want to do my best."

"Obviously, I have dumped more resources than the rest of the ninjas."

"Sure enough, is it better to start with the younger generation of the Zong family?"

"After all, it's a split family, and it's not a good thing to give too much trust, otherwise it will be the next one...

Speaking of this, the patriarch seemed to be afraid of something, and did not finish his words.

For him, that name was the taboo of the Hyuga clan, and it was also the strongest enemy that the Hyuga clan feared the most.

"yes, there's no more she."

The rest of the sect elders nodded their heads one after another, and almost wrote the word fear directly on their faces.

An enemy who fully understands all the details of the Hyuga clan, and even surpasses the limits of the Hyuga clan, is the most deadly to the Konoha Hyuga clan.

It's hard not that they don't worry that something like this will happen again.

Therefore, it is necessary to make good use of the power of separation, but also to suppress their growth.

Ning Ci's progress made them panic, and they couldn't let him grow up quickly, otherwise it would not be conducive to maintaining the relationship between the clan and the split family.

The patriarch whispered, without causing any fluctuations in Ning Ci's expression.

He had expected this situation, and if he wanted to say that there would be disappointment, but he would not seek death or life.

Hanabi was not surprised by this situation, sure enough, the Zong family was still the same Zong family, and the Zong family, which was completely killed by the traitors, has not changed at all.

Normally, they don't behave so badly, but when it comes to cultivating split ninjas, they will be extra careful.

In the past, they were not polite about investing resources in the ninjas, but in the end, they cultivated a monster that made the Konoha Hyuga clan fearful.

Therefore, whenever a talented ninja appears in the branch, they are always worried about the next Hinata Ayane.

In fact, the appearance of the next Hinata Ayane is inevitable.

It's just that it's not the Hyuga clan in Konoha, but the Chiba Aya in the country of ghosts.

Through the video of the opponent's game, it was only a matter of time before he showed such a strong strength at the age of twelve, and it was only a matter of time before he became the next Hinata Ayane.

This is also the reason why many of the Konoha Hyuga clan are dissatisfied, even if Hyuga Ayane defects, it is also inheriting the bloodline of the Hyuga clan, but his own son, with the surname of a commoner as the surname, and the separation of Chiba Aya from the family tree of the Hyuga clan, is undoubtedly weakening the overall strength of the Hyuga clan, but this kind of thing They obviously don't dare to make it clear in front of the other party, they can only live a mouth in their hearts.

Looking at the elders of the Zong family, you said everything as if you were interrogating Ning Ci as a prisoner, Hinata couldn't sit still a little and wanted to say something,

As a result, the clothes were ripped off.

Hanabi put her index finger in front of her mouth and shushed out.

"Don't talk here, you're going to kill him."

Looking at Ning Ci's attitude, he was already planning to take the responsibility down Although this is not his responsibility, but in the case that the patriarch of the sect is in urgent need of an outlet, if he shoulders all the responsibilities and allows the patriarch of the patriarch to have a psychological comfort of self-deception, then even if he is punished, the punishment will not be too heavy.

The premise is that the patriarchs of the clan should have a step down.

If Hinata intercedes now, it will not be that she will not give the patriarch a step, but will directly push those patriarch elders who shirk their responsibilities to the stove to roast, and then she, the patriarch's daughter, may be fine, but Ning Ci will definitely end up miserable.

"But..."

"Look who's talking over there."

Huahuo pointed at the calm and calm members of the family on the other side, as if he had long been accustomed to the fact that the Zong family shirked their responsibilities, except for a few who were fanatical and respectful of the Zong family, and also looked at Ning Ci with dissatisfied eyes, the rest were all calm and abnormal.

After living under the rule of the Zong family for so many years, they have long understood that speaking for Ning Ci at this time will only make things self-defeating.

Ning Ci was so sincere in admitting his mistakes, but he didn't have the elders behind his back.

Sure enough, all the nutrients for the brain are stretched to this point? casually glanced at Hinata's breasts, which were already larger than those of girls of the same age, and besides that, Hanabi couldn't imagine that the clan would last for an hour and a half and finally end.

Ning Ci was ordered by the Zong family to be punished.

But in view of Ning Ci's good attitude of admitting mistakes, the so-called punishment is only to the extent that it is not painful.

"That's not Brother Ningci's fault at all.

After the clan meeting, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes, and Hinata found Hanabi, the only sister who could confide in her heart, and felt aggrieved for Ningji.

"It's not okay to tell right from wrong with adults, they just want to vent the pressure in their hearts."

"Pressure?"

Hinata tilted her head, puzzled.

It's obviously that I'm older, why is my younger sister always saying something she doesn't understand at all.

"I've been oppressed for a long time, so I naturally need a breakthrough, and Brother Ning Ci just happened to hit the muzzle of the gun."

"But I can't..."

"Are you trying to say why adults can't afford it?"

Hinata blinked, that's what she meant.

"They are not adults in the ordinary sense of the word, but the embodiment of the family rules, and the family rules of the Hyuga clan are that the clan does not allow the clan to make mistakes."

Even if it's a child, they can't make mistakes.

Even if those elders of the Zong family knew that this was the problem of the Zong family itself, and it had nothing to do with Ning Ci.

The corners of Hinata's mouth moved, and she realized that she couldn't do anything.

"It's a quibble."

"That's right, it's quibble. The Zong family can't make mistakes, they can't make mistakes, and they can't make mistakes. So..."

"So?"

"Don't patronize the development of your chest, remember to eat more walnuts to replenish your brain."

Hanabi narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.

Hinata clutched her chest again and fled, and when Hinata fled, Hanabi's gaze turned to the other side of the hallway.

"Hanabi-sama."

Hinata Tokuma walked over and said respectfully

"It's you, Tokuma."

You're teasing Hinata again. “

"It's an intimate interaction between sisters."

"I'm sure Hinata-sama will be very distressed."

"I just don't want her mood to be so dull."

"Then you should be called ...... Beautiful, generous and empathetic Hanabi adults? “

Thank you. “

Hanabi took it in stride.

Then she thought of something, looked at Tokuma and asked:

"I'll leave the rest to you, have you found a suitable candidate in the branch?"

"Well, through screening, there are a lot of chess pieces that can be used, and even if there is a mistake, it will not be found on the side of Hanabi-sama."

Tokuma assured.

"That's great, I really want to turn Brother Ningci into my stuff quickly. In the future, if I say in front of Uncle Richa that Brother Ningci is already my person, wouldn't it be fun? I feel like I'm going to see a very funny face. ”

“?”

Tokuma looked at the fireworks with a bad smile on his face, did this adult say something very remarkable just now?

He couldn't have imagined that the strict education of the Hyuga clan would result in such a perfect look, but the heart was extremely willful and liked to play tricks on others.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party had pure white eyes, Tokuma was very suspicious of whether the other party was disguised by an outsider.

"So whether or not I can get a fun toy this time is up to you, Tokuma."

Looking at the fireworks tied to the pink puppet kunai in his hand, Tokuma sighed sadly.

"Your will, Hanabi-sama."

Tokuma suddenly felt that he was committing the evil of human trafficking.
