Chapter 225: Akihara Kagura, I'm the Hokage! Tsunade-sama, you'll regret it!
Hokage.
Akihara Kagura and the two Hokage advisors are still in a meeting.
Tsunade pushed open the door to the office with silence, her eyes swept slightly over everyone present, and her gaze fell on Akihara Kagura, who was the only one she was unfamiliar with.
"You little... It's called Akihara Kagura, right? ”
Tsunade walked slowly in front of Akihara Kagura, and reached out to grab his collar: "Is it you who sent people everywhere to kill my creditor?" Ruin my reputation everywhere! ”
"I killed it."
Akihara Kagura nodded, stretched out and took out a stack of documents and put them in front of Tsunade, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You're Tsunade-sama, right?" It's a coincidence, my subordinates also reported to me that Tsunade-sama wants to protect his creditors, do you want to come and see, what kind of scum does Konoha's new fifth Hokage want to protect? ”
"What is this?"
Tsunade frowned in displeasure.
However, when Tsunade picked up the stack of documents and saw the familiar names, his face couldn't help but change color slightly, because the contents of these documents were the guilt of the group of creditors.
These ninja people who open casinos or loan sharks will inevitably have some blood on their hands, their purpose is to make money, and they can do anything to make money, who will think they are innocent, who will think that they are throwing money to do charity?
On these documents, those creditors lured ordinary villagers into gambling casinos, and finally through high interest rates, these innocent villagers were completely unable to pay off their debts, forcing them to sell their wives and daughters, and killing and abusing them have become the norm.
This is normal.
Because some of the industries in the ninja world are legal.
Almost every casino is surrounded by a corresponding trick, and these creditors have gradually turned the ordinary people around them into slaves they control.
Because the system of the ninja world is still feudal, the behavior of these casino owners is also legal here, but no one can single out their illegality.
However...
Tsunade, however, could see in the documents how harmful their crimes were.
“……”
Tsunade's face is a little gloomy and complicated.
"Tsunade-sama."
Akihara Kagura stood up, pressed his palm on the table, and looked directly at the incoming Hokage: "As the Hokage, it is the villagers of Konoha who need to be protected, not these scumbags of the ninja world, I killed them for the sake of your reputation..."
In fact.
Akihara Kagura is stealing the concept.
Because Tsunade never wanted to protect those creditors, but to protect his own reputation, it was only because of the debt problem that those creditors were connected to her reputation, causing Tsunade to face Akihara Kagura's frontal attack, and there was no way to refute it at all.
"Do you want these things to get out there?"
Akihara Kagura's eyes were a little cold, and he looked more like a superior than Tsunade: "Do you let everyone in the ninja world know that Konoha's five generations of Hokage have interests in collusion with these villains, and connive at their careless human life..."
"So..."
"What's Konoha's reputation?"
Akihara Kagura stared at Tsunade, who looked a little ugly, and asked with great righteousness: "Tsunade-sama, the first Hokage founded Konoha to protect the peace of the ninja world, not to let you protect these scum who brutalized civilians!" ”
"Tsunade-sama is not that kind of person..."
Shizune hugged a little pig next to her and shivered with fright.
"I see..."
Tsunade sighed faintly in his heart.
Even though she knew from Jiraiya's mouth that she might have a disagreement with Akihara Kagura and Akihara Kagura when she returned to Konoha and cause infighting, she didn't expect this future political opponent to be so difficult and directly gave her a dismount.
These documents...
It was prepared in advance by Akihara Kagura.
This means that this guy has long thought that he will blame him for the murder of the creditor, so he prepared these documents in advance, just to take the opportunity to fight back.
Strife within Konoha ...
It's really endless!
Tsunade's heart couldn't help but sigh at the reincarnation of fate, it was Sarutobi-sensei and Shimura Danzou at the beginning, and now it's her turn and Akihara Kagura...
But...
I'm the Hokage!
"Don't give me a change of concept!"
Tsunade put down the paper in his hand and raised his head to meet Akihara Kagura's gaze: "I'm just here to protect my reputation, not to protect them, even if I want to kill them, then I have to wait until I pay off my debts!" ”
"And the fifth generation Hokage of Konoha owes money to the creditor, but he let the ninja in the village kill the creditor, this behavior is more obviously damaging the credibility of the village, right?"
Tsunade looked at Akihara Kagura and asked in a deep voice, "In this case, will anyone dare to come to Konoha to give a commission?" If I succeed as the fifth Hokage, but still pay back, more people will trust Konoha's credibility..."
"You have a point."
As if persuaded by Tsunade, Akihara Kagura sat down on his own, took out a piece of paper and a pen and handed it to Tsunade: "Then ask Tsunade-sama to write a list of his creditors, and I will send people from the root to pay off the debt, and then kill them after paying back the money..."
“……”
Tsunade's forehead jumped.
On the way back to Konoha, Tsunade heard Jiraiya mention that his disciple Akibara Kagura is a very extreme, but very persuasive person...
Right now...
Tsunade really saw it.
It's true that this little guy named Akihara Kagura is acting extremely, and he really listens to persuasion, but after listening to persuasion, his means of acting become more extreme!
The ninjas of Konoha directly pay off their debts first and then kill people, and they are clearly going to use killing methods to warn other people in the ninja world not to take money that they shouldn't touch?
This means...
It's better not to pay back anything and kill the creditor directly!
Tsunade glanced at Akihara Kagura with strange eyes, sighed and said, "This is my private matter, I will solve it myself, and I won't have to worry about the people in the village to interfere..."
"Tsunade-sama."
Akihara Kagura shook his head and said very sincerely, "When you are appointed to succeed the Hokage, it already means that your private affairs will not be your private affairs..."
"Because you represent Konoha, you must not make a mistake by half a step, every mistake will bring huge losses to Konoha..."
"Then I'll quit!"
Tsunade simply stacks the picks and flips the table!
"I'll let you be the Hokage!"
Tsunade patted Akihara Kagura on the shoulder, as if he was unofficial and light, and made Akihara Kagura a move: "You are so responsible, let you be the Hokage, lest you have anything unconvinced..."
"Calm down, Tsunade!"
Mito Menyan hurriedly opened his mouth and persuaded him: "The matter of your succession to the fifth generation Hokage has been notified to the Daimyo, and I will soon accept the appointment of the Daimyo..."
"We're also going to give the order to prepare for the succession ceremony..."
Koharu also opened his mouth to persuade him, not wanting to allow Tsunade to refuse.
Akihara Kagura served as the Hokage's assistant, and neither of them could stop Akihara Kagura from acting, and once Akihara Kagura became the Hokage, they would definitely have no way to stop Akihara Kagura from doing something wrong!
"This is a collective decision of the village higher-ups..."
Akihara Kagura quickly shook his head, Tsunade had to succeed the Hokage, as Tsunade's successor Hokage might be able to bring powerful medical properties.
And...
It's really a chess opponent!
Tsunade, the future boss, even flips the table!
At this time...
I'm sure I'm going to kick off all the tables and stools!
Akihara Kagura spoke aggressively, but in his words, he expressed his support for Tsunade's successor Hokage: "Tsunade-sama, please don't lose your temper, if you still think that you are a ninja in the village, if you still want to take on the responsibility of protecting Konoha, don't use this way to avoid the appointment of the village high-ups..."
“……”
Tsunade looked at Akihara Kagura's expression, and he actually felt a little trance.
Is this guy buttoning his hat, or is it really to protect Konoha?
If Akihara Kagura doesn't want her to be Hokage, shouldn't she take the opportunity to find a way to kick herself out? Why do you still have to firmly support yourself as Hokage?
After all, if you don't become the fifth Hokage, you don't recognize yourself as a ninja of Konoha and don't want to take on the responsibility of protecting Konoha...
It seems like...
Isn't this little guy that bad?
Is it really all about Konoha? It's just that the personality is a little too extreme?
"Tsunade-sama."
Akihara Kagura said in a deep voice about his sacrifice: "In order for you to succeed the Hokage, all the ninjas in the root are dispatched to clean up any scum that may hinder your reputation, and I am still here to discuss with the two Hokage advisors, when to clean up those nobles who do not approve of your succession to the Hokage, and even if the Fire Nation Daimyo does not approve, we can also assassinate him..."
“……”
Tsunade's fingers trembled.
Kill the Daimyo!
Nothing like this has ever happened in all ages!
Tsunade has already seen a lot of big scenes, and at this time he was also a little scared by Kagura's words!
Has this guy named Kagura done anything to get her to succeed the Hokage? Normal people wouldn't want to kill the daimyo right?
"Ahem, ahem, ahem..."
Mito Menyan coughed violently, and said in a loud voice, "Kagura, if you kill the daimyo, it will seem a little too much..."
Koharu also frowned, and opened his mouth to persuade: "If the real nobles don't agree to Tsunade's succession, we agree that you can clean up those nobles and kill the Daimyo, not to mention that the Daimyo himself is also in favor of Tsunade succeeding the Hokage..."
"Okay, okay, I know, the trouble is dead!"
Tsunade sighed, and waved his hand again and again to show that he understood what they meant: "I will succeed the five generations of Hokage, those nobles who oppose me, I will talk to them personally, and the upper echelons of the village don't have to use such extreme means against them..."
"There is no harm in killing them."
Akihara Kagura shook her head quickly and continued, "Their opposition to Tsunade-sama's succession to Hokage this time means that any proposal made by Tsunade-sama in the future in the political situation of the Fire Nation is likely to be rejected by them..."
Akihara Kagura talked about the harm that these nobles did to Konoha, and did not mention that these nobles refused to succeed Tsunade as Hokage, mostly because the Konoha ninja cleaned up the casinos secretly set up by those nobles, harmed their interests, and cut off their channels for plundering wealth.
Tsunade was able to see it all.
"I'll convince them."
Tsunade frowned and rejected Akibara Kagura's proposal, and continued, "All this was originally our people who killed their people, which caused their interests to be damaged..."
"Wrong!"
Akihara Kagura interrupted Tsunade and coldly continued, "The origin of all this is because they secretly supported others to open casinos, making Tsunade-sama owe too many gambling debts..."
"Actually, it's me..."
Tsunade waved his hand, blaming himself for the mistake and not wanting to blame it on his hobbies.
"It's good that Tsunade-sama can recognize his mistakes."
Akihara Kagura immediately nodded and continued, "From today onwards, I hope that Tsunade-sama will not go further and further down the wrong path, and will not let people know after succeeding the Hokage, what inappropriate behavior you have committed..."
"When you become a Hokage, can't you gamble?"
Tsunade was a little dissatisfied, and looked at Akihara Kagura angrily.
"The Hokage can have his own hobbies."
Akihara Kagura nodded and agreed, but added another condition: "However, in order to pay attention to the image of the Hokage, I can't let people know that Konoha's fifth Hokage-sama is still a gambler, and the shadows and roots will clean up some insiders..."
“!!!”
Tsunade glanced at Akibara Kagura in disbelief.
After gambling, the shadows and roots kill people directly in the casino, how dare they gamble with others? What casino would dare to let her in?
Albeit...
No casino would dare to let her in now.
"Tsunade, it's all for Konoha."
Koharu and Mito Menyan agreed with Akihara Kagura, and they didn't want Konoha's Hokage to be a gambler, which would indeed affect Konoha's image.
Sarutobi Hizashi has been in power for nearly forty years, leaving behind a loving and gentle Hokage image in Konoha, and the will of fire that has only been handed down must not be ruined by Tsunade's hobby to ruin the village's common people's perception of Hokage.
"Trouble is dead..."
Tsunade muttered impatiently, walked over to the Hokage's desk and sat down, and continued nonchalantly, "Okay, don't mention whether I will gamble in the future, don't worry about the nobles who oppose my succession to the Hokage, I'll deal with it myself!" ”
After Tsunade finished speaking, he looked directly at the people present, and his eyes stopped at Akihara Kagura: "This is the first order I gave when I came back, just follow my orders, Akihara Kagura, I am the Hokage..."
"Tsunade-sama, you'll regret it."
Akihara Kagura looked back firmly at Tsunade's eyes.
This moment...
The atmosphere in the office was a little eerie.
"This..."
"This..."
Koharu and Mito Menyan frowned and glanced at each other, and the two advisors felt that this scene was faintly familiar.
How is this...
Doesn't seem to have changed?
The two Hokage advisors had seen this scene a lot during the reign of Sarutobi Hizashi and Shimura Danzo, and now they saw it again as soon as Tsunade returned...
There's nothing new in this office...
No.
There's still something new.
Because Akihara Kagura and Shimura Danzo are still different.
"I want to propose one thing here."
Akihara Kagura looked at Tsunade and offered her opinion: "Tsunade-sama, as the Hokage's assistant in the village, you can't allow a Hokage to act arbitrarily on the wrong path..."
"Tell me what you think."
It's impossible for Tsunade to not allow the Hokage assistant to make a proposal at this time, nor can he disagree and replace a Hokage assistant, especially since this Hokage assistant is powerful and is the pillar that supports Konoha's strength.
"I ask for the resurrection of the Hokage!"
Akihara Kagura looked at the two advisors next to him and took the opportunity to bring up his thoughts: "Please allow me to use the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique to resurrect the Hokage of the past generations in the village!" ”
"On the one hand, this is to prevent Orochimaru from preemptively resurrecting the Hokage of the past dynasties, causing us to be controlled by others when facing Orochimaru's invasion in the future..."
Akihara Kagura looked at Tsunade, aiming directly at the incoming fifth Hokage: "On the other hand, the successive Hokages have governed Konoha for many years, and they will work together to help govern Konoha and avoid the mistakes of the five generations of Hokage in the village!" ”
First update!
Low-level struggles often adopt high-level methods of struggle!
