Chapter 221: Truth is a Good Thing
"Arrogance!" Mito Menyan couldn't bear it anymore and scolded.
It was the first time that someone dared to speak disrespectfully on such an occasion, even the former Uchiha clan had to break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs in the face of the high-level.
A mere tailed orc pillar force, could it be more tricky than the unruly Uchiha?
The problem is, it's really trickier.
He glanced at Mito Menitis and frowned dissatisfied, coughing.
"So what? If the advisor is dissatisfied with me, he can complain to the Hokage's office after the meeting, and as the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan, I will take care of it. ”
He is the one who plays the hooligan, and he is the one who has to reason now.
"You!" Mito Menyan choked for a while, it was too damn shameless, it was just the same as the five generations.
"What patriarch? Is it just your patriarch? Zhuan Xiaochun expressed his dissatisfaction, and the other small high-level officials in the conference room did not dare to say anything at all.
When the gods fight, it's best to watch from the sidelines, and don't be reckless. After all, the five generations were silent, but their eyes swept over the crowd from time to time.
The feeling was terrifying, as if they were being watched by the Supreme God, and they trembled.
"A one-man patriarch?" Naruto shifted himself to make himself more comfortable in the soft chair, and he spoke.
"I'm not used to your tone, as if I'm sitting here like an anomaly. But I'm sure you're not used to it, after all, you can tolerate an unknown tool guy making a lot of nonsense here. ”
"You're still holding the shelf, high up. I'm also one of the high-level now, the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan, you think it's insignificant, but it's just the patriarch of one person. Do you have to do it and have a conflict with you before you admit it? ”
Koharu didn't speak, his cloudy eyes just stared at him, exuding a chill.
Naruto always remembered what Tsunade had said, that status was never gained by prestige, it was achieved by force.
And he also knew that Tsunade had tried his best to help him get a pass to the top. Now that he doesn't have the Nine-Tails, if he wants to stabilize his high-level position, he can only show real skills.
The high-level wants a person with a false name to squeeze him in the name of Konoha. Essentially, he is still regarded as a bonus to the Nine-Tails.
Compared to the Nine-Tails, the name Naruto Uzumaki has no value, and the higher-ups don't look at him squarely at all.
Releasing the name of an imaginary high-level is like throwing out a piece of candy in exchange for being honest and obedient, and this deal is probably a good deal in their opinion.
But no one expected that Naruto was no longer a nine-tailed pillar force.
All the compromises made by the higher-ups were made on the premise of acquiescing that Naruto was the Nine-Tails pillar force. And now that all the prerequisites are gone, it is impossible for the top management to give him a good face.
Naruto chose to blow himself up, which was unwise at this juncture. But if he really endures at this time, then Tsunade's order will be in vain.
What kind of thing are they, there are certainly powerful people like Tuan Zang at the top.
However, this is a world where power reigns. The advisor disdains to do things for the village, and it is impossible for Danzang to lose his mind because he is angry for a while.
In front of this group of old foxes, he must show his edge in order to sit firmly in this position. Tsunade got him a ticket to the high-level, but he didn't say that he could only be a nominal high-level.
If anything, the key to making Naruto eligible to enter this conference room before was the Nine-Tails. Now, what makes his value manifest is his own strength.
Detached from the power of the Tailed Beast, this is only the tip of the iceberg of all his powers.
in the conference room.
Most of the junior high-level officials subconsciously stood up, and only Naruto and the four high-level executives sat calmly in their chairs. Tsunade's gaze was not on him, but through him he looked at the group of small high-rises.
Today's meeting was a daily meeting, and most of the Hokage's high-ranking officials did not show up.
Everyone's eyes were on Konoha's backbone, the four adults.
The atmosphere was low and depressing, and the eyes of every small high-ranking person in the seat looking at Naruto were full of fear and jealousy. If you lose the Tailed Beast, can you still use the power of the Tailed Beast?
Has it become a monster? Fusion?
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! ”
As the tension raged, several applause rang out slowly, and the sound came from the position of the Hokage. Tuan Zang and the two advisors didn't mean to speak, and arguing and answering the phone was a loss.
It's okay to quarrel with Tsunade, even if it's to scare other junior high-level executives, but there is no win or loss in quarreling with juniors. It doesn't matter how stiff the state is, anyway, that little ghost is Tsunade's person, and Tsunade will mediate.
That's right, Tsunade will make a move.
Estimating that it was almost over, she stood up directly and clapped a few times in a fake way. The woman is very good at acting, she doesn't smile and says with a smile.
Naruto didn't look at her expression, just stared into her eyes, a little dissatisfied. Suddenly, his heart chuckled, and his heart was finished, and he should have died when the meeting was over.
"Konoha needs the power of the new generation, and the matter of the Nine-Tails is put on hold for the time being. Since Naruto Uzumaki, one of our high-ranking people, has the ability to provoke the girder, it is also a good thing for the village. ”
"I'm glad that Kakashi is also taking on the role of Captain of the Dark Force at this age, and I hope to see it."
Tsunade didn't leave the interests of the village, and every sentence tied Kakashi and Naruto together. It's about the village, and between the words, there are still three sentences that don't leave the Hokage's lineage.
The simple and spicy brushed the contradictions through, and by the way, he swiped Kasaki's sense of existence. Tsunade waved his hand and ended the meeting hastily.
The crowd dispersed, and the conference room was empty.
"Come here." Tsunade waved at Naruto, and there was silence all around.
Naruto was not as arrogant as he was, and walked over obediently. I didn't dare to look at it, and honestly stood there with my head down.
"How long have you been hiding from me?"
"It didn't take long, it looked like a few months." Naruto looked like the old king had been caught and raped by the main palace, and his face turned pale.
Even if Tsunade asked him where the Nine-Tails were going, he wouldn't be so nervous. The only thing that came was that I had been hiding from her for a long time, and it was over, and it had risen to a matter of principle.
"Not long? A few months is not long? Tsunade sat on a soft chair, thin and plump, and his jade-like hands hung down on the table.
Knock, she habitually knocked on the table twice, and Naruto's back straightened instantly.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Tsunade's face was gloomy, and he looked really angry, looking at the tall boy in front of him, and his emotions were complicated for a while.
"This. The Nine-Tails disappeared suddenly, and I don't know very well. Naruto said with some embarrassment, he couldn't talk to him.
The Nine-Tails did disappear, and as for hiding in the body of a fox dog, he could pretend not to know. Even if you accidentally wear a goof, just push it directly on the Nine-Tails.
He knew that Tsunade didn't like to beat around the bush, so he apologized honestly.
"I should have said it earlier, not until now."
Hearing this, Tsunade's brows furrowed slightly, and his posture was half-sunk in the soft chair. She wasn't very satisfied with Naruto's answer, but she suppressed her temper and said.
"Don't hide something from me, if you think you can solve it, it's okay, don't hold on if you can't deal with it."
After saying this, without waiting for Naruto to answer, Tsunade stepped on a crisp heel and left.
Suddenly, Naruto was the only one left in the huge conference room. Thinking of Tsunade's words, he raised his eyebrows, this time he played Dafa, and he was really emotional.
Fortunately, he didn't think about it so much, what should he do with a cheeky face.
With a snap, he slapped the task application at the task collection area, coughed and said.
"I'm going to plug in this mission."
The head of the mission management office, Xiao Gao, was a small old man, wearing glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, and he was so angry that he almost fell ill when he watched Naruto's arrogant and domineering behavior.
"It's a mission that starts tomorrow, and it's not in accordance with the rules." The little old man said.
Naruto frowned, staring at the little old man dressed like a royal family, and said with some dissatisfaction.
"The rules are set by people, so they can't be changed?"
"I can't change it."
"Huh?"
"No, I'm saying that this rule was set by the Fifth Hokage." The little old man had obviously participated in the meeting just now, and was obviously a little apprehensive.
The human pillar force in front of him is no longer an ordinary human pillar force, and the power can still be used without a tailed beast, in short, it has become an existence that cannot be looked at directly.
It's not terrible to have no power, it's the high-level people who are strong and stand at the top. It's like the four pillars of Konoha, looking down on everything.
Naruto is now half a foot into the ranks of the four upper echelons, why is it half a foot, because the strength is not enough prestige. Unless you save the world, you won't be a Hokage.
Fortunately, his ambition is not to be the Hokage, but only to enjoy the flowers and play with his legs.
In layman's terms, his living in this shell is a tragedy, just a symbol of justice. What was imposed on him were good qualities, but he wasn't really Naruto after all, and these good qualities overwhelmed him with extreme disgust.
Tsunade wants him to face the world positively. I want to bring him to the boulevard of people, pull more people in, and get involved with Naruto.
The higher-ups hope that he has no thoughts, is completely loyal to the village, and sweeps through the major ninja villages to become a deterrent humanoid weapon.
But what he wanted was to sweep the girls of the major ninja villages and deter the young women of the ninja world. The ideal began to be crooked from here, and it was destined that it would be difficult for Naruto to get together with the ideas of the higher-ups.
Although it was just a joke, he really didn't think about choosing to live a specific life. The path he's traveled has been almost unexpected by everyone, even Tsunade.
He has his own way of living, and he really can't get over the hurdles, so add a little dark blue!
"The rules set by the five generations are not allowed to change the task suddenly, and if you have to adjust it, you have to let her see it herself." The little old man added with some weakness.
"Wait." Naruto threw down a sentence, grabbed the task requisition, and went to procedural justice.
