Hokage's office

Qu Zhen had heard that the people who came and went were all big shots, and he didn't have a chance to enter here at all, but today, when he came in, it was still the kind that everyone was looking forward to.

"Qu Zhen" Ape Fei Ri said with a kind face: "You are so old in a blink of an eye. ”

"Hokage-sama."

Qu Zhen was a little moved, he didn't expect Hokage-sama to be so busy and still remember himself.

"Good boy, I see in you that the will of fire is burning, and you are the pride of Konoha."

Sarutobi paused: "Hoshino Mu didn't let you suffer, did he?" ”

"No, Hoshino-sama to me..."Qu Zhen seemed to think of something, and hesitated: "It's okay." ”

When Ape Fei saw it, his heart was settled, he stepped forward and patted Qu Zhen on the shoulder, and comforted: "I know that you have suffered a lot in the sand ninja, don't be afraid, now you go back to the village, I will be the master for you, come, tell me all the grievances you suffered in the sand ninja." ”

Qu Zhen scratched his head: "I—I haven't suffered any grievances, it's just that Hoshino-sama's style of acting is comparative... Compare the imagination. ”

"It's okay, then tell us what Hoshino Mu said and what he did."

Qu Zhen nodded, after all, he was a ninja of Konoha, so naturally he would not hide it from Hokage-sama.

After listening to Qu Zhen finish telling the 1510 he knew, the Hokage's office was silent for a long time.

Now most of Konoha troops are not in the village, and most of the middle and upper echelons are gone, and only those few advisers can make decisions.

"It's simply an insult to Konoha! Lu Jiu, you still want to give this kind of scum 1.2 billion?! ”

Zhuan Koharu can't control the anger in his heart, when will it be Konoha's turn to give money to others?!

The second generation and Yun Ren's negotiation and peace is still criticized by some people, you must know that it was Yun Ren who took the initiative to propose, Lord Kaoma just accepted it and was nagged for a lifetime, and now let Konoha take the initiative to pay compensation, that's right, Xiaochun thinks that it is compensation, she will never agree!

Mito Menyan, Danzo, and Sarutobi Hizashi were all silent.

The second generation is a candidate elected by the whole village in a referendum, and when the ape flies to the sun, it becomes the king, and it is also the king's appointment that crosses the daimyo of the country of fire, how can it be convincing to the public?

In order to sit firmly in this position, they don't know how much painstaking efforts were wasted, repaired the rift with the daimyo, and coordinated the interests of the major families, and it took several years for Ape Fei Ri to sit in this position.

One of the many objections listed by the opposition at the time was that 'the second generation is guilty of the village, and the guilty person designates that his disciples should be invalidated'.

Hearing Qu Zhen's words brought back their bad memories, and they didn't even want to open the scroll.

This is the difference between them and Shikaku, Shikaku didn't experience that time, he considered this matter from the perspective of the village, but he didn't consider that if he accepted this condition, Hokage-sama would most likely step down!

After all, their power was weak at the beginning, and they did not dare to adopt tough measures even in the face of the opposition, and when they completely took power, Konoha experienced World War II, and the opposition took the opportunity to expand its power in the village, and now it is too big to lose.

Although the relationship between the two sides gradually warmed up in peacetime, and the industry was very close, no one dared to guarantee that they would not carry the banner of 'anti-ape' again.

Sarutobi felt out of his pipe at some point, and the fire-like sparks flashed in the pipe, and no one could see his expression under the Hokage's hat.

"Let's take a look at the content first, Hoshino Maki asked Qu Zhen to come back with the scroll, there must be ulterior motives."

In the silence, Tuan Zang opened his mouth a little abruptly, but no one would accuse him of this.

Because those old people were not the stunned kind of Shikaku, they understood why the Hokage was silent, and at this time, only the members of the advisory group could easily speak.

Everyone looked at the Hokage, and Sarutobi took a hard puff of his cigarette and said in a dry old voice, "Let's go." ”

The dark part beside him stepped forward to open the scroll, he didn't mean to look at it, but he trembled when he didn't catch a glimpse.

"Adult"

He didn't dare to look at it anymore, and respectfully handed it to Hokage-sama, and Sarutobi took it, and when he saw half of it, his eyes narrowed into a line, his teeth clenched his pipe, and the momentum of the whole person became extremely terrifying.

Smack——!

Ape Fei Ri directly threw the scroll to the ground, and Qu Zhen, who was standing not far away, shuddered in fright.

"Hoshino Maki really damn it!"

His dry palms couldn't help but tremble, and his whole body fluctuated slightly, obviously choking with anger.

Lu Jiu picked up the scroll on the ground, and Danzang said, "Lu Jiu read it." ”

Lu Jiu nodded, but he was stunned when he saw the first one, he finally understood why the other party felt that he was insincere.

But this person's request has nothing to do with sincerity, if he dares to agree, the Nara clan is afraid that the Uchiha clan will rebel first, otherwise there is no possibility of meeting the other party's demand.

"The land of fire, the western forests are all ceded to the land of wind..."

"No way!"

"Hoshino Maki is crazy?!"

"Go to war! I'm going to hang Hoshino Maki's head on Kikyo Castle in one day! ”

“...”

Lu Jiu hadn't finished reading the first article yet, and there was no one present who didn't scold, even Tuan Zang scolded twice.

He knew that this kid was bold, but he didn't expect him to be so bold.

Do you want to make a Chinese New Year movie with a whole shot to the end?

This matter is also directly passed, and there is no need to discuss it at all, but then there is a question to consider, how to deal with Hoshino Maki?

Everyone was advocating war, and Shikaku glanced at everyone and asked a question calmly: "Who can face Raksha, Hoshino Mu, and those elite shinobi in Yokura?" Don't forget, there are at least 2,000 sand ninjas in Kikyo City now, and they can already pose a threat to the village, even..."

This question is like a group silence that makes the scene cool down suddenly, and you can say it, but when it comes to the real guy, it will wither.

Suddenly, one of them spoke, "Aren't Tsunade and Orochimaru-sama in the village?" With them here, it should be enough for the village to get together again, right? ”

Without waiting for the others to speak, Ape Fei shook his head and said, "Tsunade is on a secret mission, and Orochimaru can do it, but the village can't muster so many troops." ”

Normally, the siege of the city is several times the number of troops, even in the ninja world, it is difficult to do without a few excellent earth escape ninjas.

However, most of Konoha's excellent earth ninjas are in the southeast to guard against the Fog Hidden Village, and it will take time to call them back.

Besides, the other party is not a fool and will watch you release ninjutsu blankly.

The situation fell into a dilemma for a while, fighting, and it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice; If you don't fight, will it be possible to agree to the other party's extremely greedy conditions?

No one wants to bear this infamy.

The meeting lasted for three hours without results, and after everyone dispersed, Qu Zhen was also arranged in a separate room.

Although Yamanaka Haiichi personally confirmed that Qu Zhen was not affected by any ninjutsu, and that what he said was the truth.

But his behavior did help the sand ninja, and the fact that he was not sent to the cell was completely due to the fact that the other party was sent by Hoshino Mu on his own initiative, and he was half a messenger, and he had nothing to do with the so-called will of fire on the other party.

"Hey, it's time to eat."

A plate of rice was thrown in through the narrow notch under the door panel, and a large piece of rice was spilled after colliding with the ground.

Qu Zhen stepped forward and found that there were only a few swarthy greens on the plate, and the rice also had patches of yellow spots, exuding an obvious rancid taste.

Qu Zhen hadn't seen such a meal in Konoha for so many years, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to see it today.

He angrily slapped the door panel: "I'm not a prisoner!" You can't do that to me! ”

There was a contemptuous laugh outside the door: "You traitor has a good place to eat, what are you screaming!" If it weren't for the above, I would have stabbed you in the stomach! ”

"Trash! When the front line returns, you will wait to be judged! ”

Qu Zhen sat slumped on the ground, pulling his hair with both hands.

Why?

Why do they treat themselves like this when they are doing their best for the village?

Although Hoshino-sama's request is a bit rude, as long as it can be exchanged for time, when the next batch of ninjas grows up, these can be taken back, after all, how can ninjas have integrity at all, Hokage-sama, advisor elders, why don't they understand?!

Just when he fell into great hesitation, Hoshino Maki's voice rose from his heart, and he remembered what Hoshino Maki had said: Truth is always in the hands of a few.

He muttered silently, muttering, his eyes becoming more and more determined.

He stood up and shouted at the door: "I know you have a misunderstanding of me, but listen to me: save people and lose land, and people and land will survive; If you lose your land, you lose your land..."

————

Late at night, the Hokage's office was brightly lit.

Yamanaka Haiichi was sorting out the information, and Shikaku's body finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he was forced to recuperate at home by Tsunade-sama, and now he and Danzo-sama handle the affairs, and select important information and hand it over to Hokage-sama to deal with.

Yamanaka Haiichi yawned, the deployment of third-line military affairs and the management of internal affairs in the village, he felt that his head was big after only one day of work, and he really didn't know how Lu Jiu survived.

He looked up and casually glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, and suddenly struck a thrill.

"It's over, Rino is going to be angry!"

Although his wife looks dignified and noble, she is a fierce woman in her bones, and if she comes home too late and doesn't report to her, she will make herself look good.

He was just about to beckon the ninja outside to come in and deliver the message, when he saw a ninja from the intelligence department knock on the door hurriedly and push the door in:

"Hai Daren!"

As he spoke, he handed over a superstitious letter.

As soon as he opened it, his face changed greatly: "Gather everyone!" ”

After saying that, as if he had thought of something, he walked to the corner of the room and placed the scroll that everyone had spurned in the center of the conference table...
