After a hard night's work, the Hokage's third generation, Sarutobi Hichi, sat in the office of the Hokage's house, which was a little gray and yellow by the thick smoke, smoking his pipe and listening to the reports of his subordinates.

"The explosion that spread over most of the village has been confirmed to have been planted in the main buildings a long time ago, and the main messenger is one of the large and small forces that were destroyed by our Konoha Village, but it didn't come in handy later. The executor is an old man named Xuanneng, who is proficient in construction, and has been caught. ”

Nara Shikahisa closed the folder in his hand and stood aside respectfully, recounting the information that had just arrived.

"That's it...... Xuan Neng, let us lose a lot? ”

"Not really, three generations. Because the organization behind him was eliminated early, he did not get a plan to activate the trap, and he himself actually gave up the senseless killing. Judging by the remnants that were not detonated and the results of the mind reading of the Yamanaka clan, it proves that he is not lying......"

"That said, the trail is broken."

The frowning ape couldn't help but sigh.

Obviously, someone sensed the danger hidden in Konoha Village, and played a big game last night, taking advantage of the Uchiha family and the dark tribe to fight, directly blowing up most of the entire village.

Fortunately, because of the timely evacuation, there were very few casualties caused directly, and some of the injured were properly rescued.

"There is no way to justify our incompetence and causing the village to suffer heavy losses."

The proud Nara Shikahisa lowered his head, and his tone revealed a sad look,

"This time, the loss is not small."

Ape Feiri waved his hand and persuaded with relief:

"It's the negligence of the dark department, and for decades, no clues have been found, and there is a suspicion of dereliction of duty......"

The direct leader of the shadows is the Hokage, in other words, the three generations have taken the responsibility on their heads.

The boss takes the initiative to take the blame, and the subordinates naturally can't take it seriously. After clearing his throat, Nara Shikahisa continued:

"Regarding the suspects, it is unlikely that Yun Ren and Sand Shinobi are likely, judging from the information sent back by their own spies, they are also confused and don't know what happened; Kiri Shinobi has no motive and no strength to make waves in Konoha Village; Yanyin Village has not dealt with us much over the years, and it is far away in the northwest plateau, so there is no main envoy to visit in person, so we can't seize the opportunity to play micro-exercises......"

In short, there is strength, there is no chance, although the suspicion cannot be completely ruled out, the possibility is already very small.

As for the Rain Ninja, Grass Ninja and Tang Ninja, if they had the ability to find the trap before the shadows of Konoha Village, and blew up Konoha Village, they would not have fallen to the point where they are now.

With so many possibilities ruled out, there are not many goals left.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the Furusugi family, the Uchiha family who are still fighting trapped beasts, etc., and even it cannot be ruled out that a certain ninja clan who is dissatisfied with the village is fishing in troubled waters, such as the Hyuga family who has been swimming outside the core of Konoha Village, the oil girl clan who jumps left and right between Shimura Danzou and Sarutobi Hiza, and even the pig deer butterfly who has the heart to go to the next level.

In the end, it cannot be ruled out that in order to solve the troublesome problem once and for all, Shimura Danzou took the opportunity of exterminating the Uchiha family to carry out a major internal reshuffle, expand the area of attack, and take advantage of the situation to cut off the majesty of the three generations of purposes, and lay the foundation for seizing power in the future.

"Which side is the most suspicious?"

"Uchiha, Elder Danzo, Ancient Sugi Busui. The Uchiha had the motivation and ability, and when he replaced the clan land, he built a lot of construction, and it is possible that they discovered the anomaly, and it was not caused until last night. Elder Tuanzang supervised various fields, and although the old man Xuanneng was secretive, it was difficult for him to evade the pervasive inspection of the 'root' organization......

"Just because of the ability? I really can't think of his motives, just because I don't approve him to graduate and become a ninja? ”

Because he couldn't get a diploma, he blew up the school, although it was exaggerated, it was difficult to keep the people who would repay him to do it, and raze the whole town to the ground, what is the picture?

"That's all there are suspects?"

"This is only a relatively suspicious target, and there are many second-class targets......

If that's the case, then you really can't find out.

The Uchiha family is gone, and Elder Shimura Tunzo is unconscious, and there is no evidence, and it is not easy to catch the young governor of the Gusugi family to torture and read the mind.

If the scope of the investigation is expanded, it will really be endless.

"The matter of chasing the murderer, let it go first, and resettle the villagers first."

Konoha Village seems to have suffered a lot of losses, but in fact, it is a bit painful for the Uchiha family to be uprooted, as long as the main personnel are still there, they can make a comeback, and the building can be burned down and it can be restarted, and it will be all over when people die.

"Understood, then I'll go down first."

As the head of the ninja class, Nara Shikahisa is not a bastard who can't do anything but drink, and several veteran consultants below the elders, he is the most effective, if it weren't for his lack of prestige, he would also have a chance to compete for the position of Hokage.

Later, Asma, the apue who had passed by Nara Shikahisa, snuffed out his cigarette and walked in.

"Three generations of ......"

"Hmm!"

Not long after coming back, the father and son didn't have time to catch up, and the troubles were one after another, and only when they were on business could they have the opportunity to say a few words.

"Last night's incident, well done. Fighting and killing is not all there is to ninjas, we are also flesh and blood people, and it is also important to protect our compatriots. ”

"Uh......"

The original white-faced young man has gradually become a sign of a beard in the future, and his son, who is a little ashamed, is always not able to say bluntly that he is chasing his daughter, borrowing wine in an izakaya to drown his sorrows, getting drunk, and saving many people by mistake.

Seeing the ape flying Asma smirking, the old man was also a little annoyed.

"Since you are ready to come back and develop, you have to prepare well, with your strength, the promotion to Shangnin is just around the corner. In the future, we should pay more attention to our words and deeds, and each shinobi will be the pillar of the village, and we must become an example to inspire future generations. There must have been a lot of trouble in the village recently, and the burden on your shoulders is very heavy, and when you survive the disaster, I will give you a promotion assessment task......"

"So fast?"

Strength improvement, status improvement, respect, of course this is a good thing, but recently the relationship has not been smooth, I always feel that I have to be more concerned about the sunset, so as not to be really hated, if I am tied up by the task, many plans will not be implemented.

"Are you unwilling to take your share of responsibility?"

"Never so, but on command."

The old man rolled his eyes, and Asma couldn't help but feel weak. It's not that I'm afraid, but I don't want to spread any bad rumors anymore, so that Sunset Red will become more and more alienated from herself.

From a general point of view, it is true that now is not the time for children to grow up.

"That's fine."

The three generations of old men who are about to have seizures nodded imperceptibly,

"There's something you can do right now. Your peer Gu Shanbu Shui is stranded in the village. It just so happens that we also need the help of Daimyo and Furusugi to rebuild Konoha Village, so you can talk to him......"

"He? If I don't go, wouldn't it be good for you to go out in person? ”

"Idiot! It is impossible for a character like us to talk about such things directly face-to-face, and once we don't speak well, we are prone to take unnecessary communication risks. Privately, when there is a clear intention and the main framework is further negotiated, the leaders will meet directly to finalize cooperation. ”

Everyone is a figure with a head and a face, meet at will, or discuss major events in the world, and if there is a big turmoil, you can't retreat if you want to.

"Okay."

Ape Fei Asma nodded helplessly,

"My personal relationship with him is actually very ordinary, don't expect too much."

The so-called "very ordinary" is actually a modest statement, Gu Shanbushui and Ape Fei Asma actually have no friendship, and there are even some contradictions.

Don't mention it in the past, now that Sunset Red still has no feelings for that embroidered pillow, Ape Fei Asma is not convinced, and he said something sour in private, and sued in front of Sunset Red, not once or twice.

As a result, it's not clear whether the relationship between the two is effective or not, but Sunset Red has a bit of a prejudice against Asma, the ape who said bad things about people behind his back.

At this time, he was sent to pull the relationship, and Asma Ape Fei was a little reluctant.

However, this time it is a business matter, and it is not easy to excuse it.

Most of the students of Gushan Bushui and Sarufei Asma have only just begun to emerge, and they are still a little far from being alone, except for Kakashi Hachiki, there is really no talent who can talk to the young governor of the Gushan family face-to-face about serious matters.

Fortunately, Asma Sarutobi bears the name of the son of the incumbent Hokage, and his words barely carry a little weight.

……

After going out for a circle, helping the surrounding residents, and doing some small things within his ability, Gu Shanbushui returned home, instructed Xiang Lian to practice, and was practicing chakra control ability in the small courtyard, and the guests came to the door.

After inviting Asma to the reception room and instructing the servants to serve tea, Gu Shanbushui asked with a smile:

"At this time, shouldn't you be busy, why do you have time to come to my door?"

In fact, Gu Shanbushui never thought that there would be a chance to negotiate alone with Ape Fei Asma, not to mention that the relationship was not good, he was always dumped in the face, even if Gu Shanbushui was not very interested in Sunset, he was too lazy to put a hot face on his cold ass.

The son of the Hokage is amazing?

The heir of the Gushan family is not bad!

Sarufei Asma may not be able to be the Hokage in the future, but Furusugi Bushui will definitely become the head of the family, and there is even a slight possibility that he will become the Daimyo of the Fire Country.

Thinking about it this way, there is no relationship between the two of them, and Gu Shanbu Shui can completely ignore most of the Konoha ninjas in private.

"The old man commanded that he had to come."

Ape Fei Asma didn't go around in circles, and there really wasn't much gossip between the two.

"The village's losses this time are too great, and it will definitely not be able to slow down for a while, so ......"

"Want to borrow money?"

"Hmm...... That's how it should be. ”

In the end, he is still young, and he asks for help, especially borrowing money from people who don't interact much on weekdays, and Ape Fei Asma is still a little unaccustomed to it.

"It's not a big problem, I have money, and your Konoha ninja's ability to pay debts is also trustworthy, but it's ......"

Gu Shanbu Shui said leisurely,

"You also know that our Gushan family, the others may not be guaranteed, and the richest man in the ninja world should not be wrong. No matter how much money there is, to us, it's just a number, not worth mentioning. What this person wants most is what he doesn't have. As long as you can buy it with money, it's not rare, so I'm interested in treasures that can't be bought with money......"

"What are you...... Want to take advantage of the fire? ”

"Don't say it so badly. You and I are both people with status, don't look like you haven't seen the world. You've also been a guardian for a while, so you won't make a fuss, right? ”

Gu Shanbu Shui said nonchalantly to the unswerving face of the ape Fei Asma,

"The best treasures in the world are always grabbed; Only garbage that is rare will be actively distributed to those who do not work hard. Under normal circumstances, I want to make conditions with you Konoha Village, but it is too difficult. I've been a grandson in Konoha Village for nearly ten years, and I can't even get a ninja license, although I don't have any bad thoughts about you now, but since I was a child, I have suffered a big loss here, and I always feel a little unwilling. ”

"Small-bellied chicken intestines."

"Come on, in life, you always have to pay attention to a happy grudge, the second half of my life, there is really not much to work towards. The ideals that you have worked hard to achieve all your life, I was born to achieve them, what a boring life? It's hard to have some fun, but you can't cooperate? ”

The young governor of Gushan, who shrugged his shoulders and responded casually, took a sip of hot tea arrogantly, and said slowly:

"Even if I do nothing, my wealth has increased at a rate far greater than you can imagine, and for more than a year, I have been worried about the gold, silver and jewels that have piled up in the treasury. It's a real nuisance to be a loser, and if I don't find a way to spend money, I'm going to give a thousand taels of silver to everyone in the Fire Country, and I think it's a blessing for the child who is about to be born. ”

Regardless of whether these words are true or not, there is only one meaning in the words, the eldest young master of the Gushan family has too much money and burns in a panic, borrowing money is not a problem, and the interest cannot be sent away with a little profit, and he has to get some dry goods.

"Since you're worried about money, we're short of money, why don't you give it to us?"

"Why? Even if I throw it into the sea, I can still hear it, and you don't pay anything, just want to spend my money in vain? ”

"If you say that, I can't decide."

"Then let those who can call the shots come."

Originally, Gu Shanbushui didn't think that he could negotiate with Ape Fei Asma to achieve any results, and it would be good to have a cooperation intention in the initial contact, and the next thing was to show each other's chips and negotiate conditions.

……

Konoha Hospital, on the top floor of the special care ward, a group of medical ninjas used various means, but they could not save Shimura Danzou from a coma, and they were helpless, so they had to ask the Hokage Sandaime Sarutobi for help.

"It's so troublesome, do you need to ask Tsunade to come back to have hope?"

Originally, Ape Fei Ri Chop thought that he was only seriously injured and unconscious, but as the injury improved, he would be able to wake up, but the result was far worse than he imagined.
