Chapter 62: The Turmoil of the Orochimaru Incident (Ask for Follow-up!) )
Zongju didn't stay long in the Snow Country.
His time was precious now, so he only briefly inspected the progress of the arsenal.
And, I took a look at the recovery of the Snow Country ninja army.
I learned about the internal affairs of the snow.
I have a general understanding of the current situation in the snow country.
And then he left.
The daimyo Fenghua Xiaoxue was very reluctant to leave Zongju.
Because if Zongju is in the country of snow, the third wife of Asama will not be able to control her.
And once Zong Ju leaves, the annoying old man has to come to her to learn all kinds of things.
That stuff is just boring.
There is no interest in the slightest.
But regardless of her attitude, Zong Ju left quickly.
He travels to the Land of Birds to join up with the three Kakashi.
Because Zongju blocked Shayin's pursuers, the migration of the Loulan people was very smooth.
Along the way, there were basically no more problems.
We've also negotiated everything with the Bird Country.
The other party provided a piece of land for the Loulan people to live in.
And the price is that the Loulan people need to provide a large amount of taxes to the country of birds every year.
In addition, the official government of Loulan was also stuffed with many nobles of the Bird Country.
This is the price you have to pay to move to the land of birds.
After settling these matters, the Zong Ju team immediately withdrew.
Returned to Konoha.
As soon as they arrived in Konoha, everyone immediately heard a big news:
Orochimaru has defected!
Zong Ju really didn't really kill Orochimaru.
He came back to life on Konoha's side.
Then, after receiving a message from Kakashi, after learning that Orochimaru had attacked their team, he immediately went to find Miyome.
When Miyome learned about this, he was immediately angry, and personally took the dark part to Orochimaru's base in the root.
Then, there they saw the resurrected Orochimaru.
In the end, for some reason, the three generations didn't catch Orochimaru and were run away by the other party.
In this matter, Watergate watched the whole process from the wall and did not make a move.
However, after Orochimaru fled, a wave of public opinion was immediately set off in Konoha.
All the incidents he had done were exposed.
What kind of human experiments, killing ninjas in the same village, experimenting with the corpses of their companions, etc.
As soon as these things broke out, Orochimaru's reputation immediately stinked.
In Konoha, he suddenly became a character that everyone shouted at.
And as the teacher of Orochimaru, and the person who let Orochimaru go, the three generations need to bear an unshirkable responsibility.
As a result, under the angry protests of the villagers, the three generations had to give up more power in their hands.
He stepped back into the background and relinquished power over Watergate.
For example, in the past, when Mizumon assigned tasks to the ninjas in the village, the three generations had to sit aside and act as advisors.
said that he was an adviser, but in fact he listened to the government, and how he arranged the task, Watergate had to listen to it.
But now, the power to arrange tasks has completely fallen into the hands of Watergate, and the three generations no longer appear.
And that's just one aspect.
For example, Watergate has made quite a major breakthrough in financial power and personnel power.
A few months after taking office as Hokage, he finally made a breakthrough and gained a degree of autonomy.
If this trend continues, it seems that it will not be a few years before Watergate will become a real Hokage.
The three generations and those advisors will no longer be able to hinder him in any way.
When Zong Ju saw Watergate in the office, he was working on the documents in high spirits.
"Zongju, thank you for your hard work!" After receiving the mission report submitted by Zong Ju, Shuimen said gently.
Waving his hand, Zong Ju said: "This mission went well, I didn't encounter any trouble, and it wasn't hard." ”
"It's Watergate, you seem to have been busy lately!"
"yes!" Watergate smiled.
"Recently, there have been a lot of files, and a lot of things are very troublesome to deal with, and I have to spend more time on processing documents!"
"The fact that Lord Miyome has entrusted these things to you also shows that he trusts you very much!" Zong Ju said.
The outside world is not very clear about the power struggle between the three generations of Konoha and the four generations of Hokage.
The popular theory of Konoha folk about this incident is that the three generations found that their bodies had seriously aged because they were in the process of capturing Orochimaru.
Because his body was no longer able to support it, he couldn't give the new Hokage more help, so he took the initiative to retreat.
In this version of the story circulated among the people, two features are highlighted.
First, the three generations of adults care about the younger generations, worry about the future development of Konoha and work hard, dragging a handful of old bones to contribute to Konoha until the body can no longer hold on, and then has to quit in many fields.
Second, the fourth generation of the Lord respects the old and loves the young, is humble and kind, and because of his lack of experience, he took the initiative to ask the previous generation Hokage to help him deal with government affairs. And when the previous generation of Hokage's body was really unable to support it, he had to take the lead alone.
In short, the two generations of Hokage of Konoha are both excellent ninjas, and they are both good Hokages who are dedicated to the development of Konoha.
Having them is a blessing for the people of Konoha for a lifetime.
Although the third generation is now retired, the fourth generation will bring us Konoha to a better future.
As a naïve and hot-blooded ninja who doesn't know anything about politics, Zong Ju naturally won't know what twists and turns there are.
What bullshit political struggle?
Inexistent!
The two generations of Hokage must have loved each other.
After hearing Zong Ju's words, which were very in line with his personality, Shuimen smiled bitterly in his heart.
It would be great if things were that simple.
After thinking about it, Shuimen decided to talk to Zong Ju and care about the other party's spiritual life.
"Zongju, you have been to many countries on this mission, how do you feel?" Watergate asked.
"Do you feel it...... What a point! ”
"The ninja world is really chaotic, full of wandering ninjas and war refugees!" Zong Ju sighed.
"Yes, when I participated in the war, I also met a lot of refugees, people from various countries, and life was really difficult!" Watergate also made such a feeling.
Seeing the appearance of Shuimen, Zong Ju suddenly felt that this was just an opportunity to test the other party's ideals and beliefs.
See if you can follow the same path as yourself.
