Chapter 298: Candidates

In order to gather this army, most of the troops of Konoha have been withdrawn, and many places in the Fire Country have been left unguarded, and the bandits that were almost extinct have reappeared in the Fire Country, causing the people to mourn.

Konoha naturally understood the drawbacks of doing this, but in order to keep the momentum of the sand shinobi down, they could only choose to close their fists and work together.

It can be said that they are betting on the future of the village in this war.

Although Jiraiya led only the vanguard army, it actually accounted for half of the reserve force of Konoha, plus the strength of Yun Shinobi, if even they were defeated, there was a question mark on how much of a role the remaining half could play.

At the very least, the villagers of Konoha don't think they have a chance of turning the tables right now.

In this oppressive atmosphere, Jiraiya silently bowed his head through the crowd and walked in the direction of the Hokage Building.

He didn't dare to look up at the eyes of the people around him, and he was even afraid that someone would ask where his son or father had gone, and he had no way to explain it, and he didn't have the face to explain.

Fortunately, the Hokage Building quickly got the news and took Jiraiya to the building in a horse-drawn carriage in the face of possible embarrassment.

"This is how it happened, as a commander-in-chief, I have an unshirkable responsibility and am willing to accept all punishments."

Jiraiya bowed deeply to the people at the conference table and said in a lonely tone.

No one blames Jiraiya this time.

It's not that Jiraiya's guilt is not serious, but now is not the time to discuss this, especially now that Jiraiya's strength is needed, and it is impossible to punish him.

"Now, what do we do?"

After a long silence, Danzang struggled to open his lips that were somewhat sticky.

He couldn't understand why even the Hokage, who was so mediocre and even incompetent, could enjoy a period of peace for a while, why did he do his duty, pay so much for the village, and bear so much infamy, but in the end he didn't enjoy a good day?

He is extremely tired now, this is not the same as he imagined, internal fighting, external war, has tormented this ninja who is not young and exhausted, but now is not the time to rest, he can't let the era of Konoha end in his hands.

"What did Yun Ren say over there?"

Mito Menyan said.

"They shouldn't know the news yet."

Jiraiya shook his head, he didn't think that any of the remaining people would be able to escape from Hoshino Makaki.

"Go and send someone to inform Yun Ren."

After Danzou finished speaking, he looked at Nara Shikaku, who had been frowning since the beginning.

"Lu Jiu, tell me what you think."

Nara Lujiu pursed his lips, it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and he didn't have a good way.

He hadn't seen the reincarnation eye in Jiraiya's mouth at all, and he couldn't grasp accurate information just by dictating, not to mention that he sounded like Hoshino Maki might still have hole cards that he hadn't used.

Let him have an idea in this case, what good idea can he have?

But he had to open his mouth again, he couldn't give the question of Konoha's safety to Tuan Zang, right?

"Or. Drag it out. ”

Under the gaze of everyone, Nara Shikahisa felt his scalp tingle, he swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said a little vaguely.

"Now that the sand ninja is strong, it will be very difficult for Konoha to compete with him. In this case, I can only leave everything to time, and I believe that one day in the future, Konoha will definitely give birth to a ninja who is even more powerful than Hoshino Maki. ”

Nara Shikahisa tried his best to be tactful, but the core meaning was understood by everyone present.

"I'm afraid, Hoshino Maki won't agree~"

Hinata Hinata, with her arms around her chest, shook her head slightly.

Now that the situation is tilting towards Hoshino Maki, will the other party give up?

Hinata's words made everyone present angry and helpless, but they had to admit that what Hinata Hinata said was not only reasonable, but also very likely to be true.

"Perhaps. Things are still turning around. ”

Jiraiya hesitated for a moment and spoke.

Facing everyone's eyes, Jiraiya took out the immortal talisman from his chest and gently pushed it to the center of the conference table.

"This is the immortal talisman given to me by the Great Toad Immortal, and with it, I can give a chance to resurrect."

The breath of the people was stagnant.

"W-Is there any limit to this?"

Nara Shikahisa's eyes flashed, and he asked urgently.

This matter is not suitable for discussion on this occasion, and Zilai is also dizzy, let them discuss how to use the immortal talisman to discuss what results can be discussed?

It is estimated that by the time they discussed and came to a satisfactory conclusion, Hoshino Maki was already sitting on the Hokage's seat and yawning.

But Jirai, who was already exhausted, didn't understand Nara Shikahisa's intentions, and instinctively said: "There are no restrictions, as long as the body is relatively intact." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Nara Shikaku and Sarutobi were pale, and the others were bright.

"Resurrect my grandfather, he was one of the best white-eyed masters in the village, and he will definitely protect the village from Hoshino Makim!"

"Hinata-sama! How can such a precious qualification be given to Hinatagen, I know his strength too well, and it is impossible to compete with Hoshino Maki. Besides, such an opportunity for protection naturally has to be handed over to a really powerful person, and it is too conservative to only protect the village. I suggest resurrecting Lord Kasama, whose determination and wisdom will surely lead us back to the top of the ninja world! ”

"It's true that Kashima-sama is a wise Hokage, but I'm afraid that my strength is not enough to compete with Hoshino Maki who has the eye of reincarnation, and we should choose a ninja who is strong enough to sweep everything. Like what. Tsuruma-sama. ”

"White teeth are more reliable"

Everyone was gossiping, but Nara Shikahisa and Sarutobi Hizashi and Danzo didn't say a word.

"I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it."

Tuan Zang paused and continued: "The two adults' venerable bodies were taken away by Orochimaru, and their whereabouts are still unknown. ”

Although this matter was done by Orochimaru, he was actually involved, and he didn't want to mention it, but as the discussion progressed, the two names were mentioned more and more frequently, and if the final resurrection of one of the two became a long-awaited thing, then he would only be more embarrassed.

Therefore, when he said this, his face was a little unpleasant.

Everyone looked at each other, and the news was obviously beyond their expectations.

"The body is not."

As soon as someone spoke, he immediately stopped talking, and looked at the silent three people with a vague gaze, and there was silence in the conference room.

If this matter is investigated deeply, Ape Fei Ri is also responsible.

When the leaders of both factions in the village are responsible, neither is responsible.

"Resurrect Watergate."

After a long silence, Sarutobi said his first words since the discussion began.

This time, no one objected, even Tuan Zang only frowned and didn't say much.
