Chapter 217
"Next, everyone can start voting."

At the first Jōnin meeting restarted after the New Year, Sarutobi Hiruzai analyzed the pros and cons of the project, as well as the plan briefing, before opening his mouth and motioning to the opposing Jōnin to vote.

The list of participants has not been adjusted for the restarted Ninja Conference this time. Although there are several differences in the participants, the votes formed by these ninjas will not change.

In other words, what was the vote type last time, it should be what it is this time. Although there was no vote last time, everyone knows that the project of rebuilding the wooden escape ninja is about to be aborted.

And after Sarutobi Hiruzen's announcement, all the jounin in the conference room also turned their attention to Tsunade, as if waiting for Tsunade's objection, they would follow up one after another.

Kato looked at Tsunade who lowered his eyebrows and nodded, with unexplained concern and pity in his eyes, he wanted to raise his hand several times to express his opposition, but when he thought that he was just an unrelated person, he could only Stop your hands.

Under everyone's attention, Tsunade also slowly raised her head, although she and Chenma have been doing psychological work for her these few days.

But at the moment of voting, Tsunade was still extremely angry and ashamed. Using his grandfather's body in exchange for his own reputation and status in the future, this should not be something a granddaughter should do.

Ke Chenma has explained various possibilities for her, no matter what she chooses, her grandfather's body will be donated as a research material, even if Tsunade betrays the village.
This was an idea proposed by Tsunade, but it was rejected by Chenma in an instant, because she could not betray the village through "conventional" methods.

Raid Hokage?It will be covered up by Sarutobi Hiruza with a master-student exchange.Take action against colleagues?Has Tsunade attacked his colleagues less often in recent years?Unless Tsunade dares to really kill his colleagues, it will be useless.

And pass the secret to the enemy village?If Tsunade dares to do it, the village dares to give secrets and channels for Tsunade to leak the secrets. Anyway, her identity is destined to make it impossible for the enemy village to trust her information.

The only possible option for rebelling against the village is to declare loudly and verbally that you are rebelling against the village in public, but this just gives the village more peace of mind.

Because the village can use this as an excuse to let another Qianshou ethnic representative who is qualified to represent Qianshou and agree with the village's proposal emerge from among Qianshou.

Moreover, doing so will greatly reduce Senju's prestige and reputation. Originally, the village and villagers may still have objections, but if Tsunade does this, then everyone will agree that the village will use Senju Hashima's body as a research material.

As Tatsuma said, this is a game that Tsunade cannot "win", and only with support can he bring more benefits to himself while the result remains unchanged.

Looking at his teacher, Tsunade took a deep breath and said, "I agree."

The words fell to the ground, and the meeting room was completely silent. Everyone's inquiring eyes turned into shock in an instant. No one expected Tsunade's answer.

Some even turned their attention to Uchiha's Jonin, Yuhi Mako, and other ninjas who are good at using illusion. Although they didn't say it, their performance faintly said
"Did you control Tsunade?!"

When Hiruzaru Sarutobi heard that Tsunade supported the proposal, his emotions were also very complicated. He felt relieved and at the same time felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

But soon, Sarutobi Hiruzen adjusted his emotions, and before the other ninjas came back to their senses, he said: "Okay, you are indeed the granddaughter of the first generation, Tsunade, you really have a thorough understanding of the will of fire.

Where the leaves dance, the fire is also alive.The firelight will continue to illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout.Even if it has withered and fallen off, it will provide nutrients for new branches and leaves.

If the first Daime-sama knew about your decision at this moment, he would be extremely pleased. Tsunade, thank you Naruto for his righteousness. He is willing to sacrifice his personal honor and disgrace for the sake of the village, so as to fulfill the future of the village.

This old man is here, on behalf of Konoha, to say thank you for you and for the first Hokage-sama. "

Saying that, Hiruzaru Sarutobi disregarded his own status, stood up, and bowed deeply to Tsunade. This is what he, the teacher, owed to his disciples, and also owed to Mr. Konoha as a junior.

Looking at the teacher who spoke beautiful words, Tsunade's other hand under the table was clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white, but he still said in a blunt tone, almost gnashing his teeth:

"No need, Third Generation, I just made the choice that every Konoha person would make."

Hearing that Tsunade didn't call him teacher, and refused to even call Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who bowed and lowered his head, also had a bitter look on his face, but he soon recovered his smile and straightened up.

The two of them sang and harmonized, although they didn't cooperate very well, but all Konoha Kamijino in the conference room looked at each other, knowing that it was impossible to disagree.

After all, if you disagree, you are not a Konoha person.

The next vote went very smoothly, no one voted against, only Uchiha abstained from voting, Uchiha's current patriarch, Uchiha Fugaku's father Uchiha Taku, looked at Tsunade, and sighed inexplicably , shook his head and stopped talking.

Beside him, Uchiha Fugaku, who was promoted to Jonin after the war, looked at his father. For some reason, he heard regret and sorrow from his father's sigh.

When the voting results came out, Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded. According to the normal procedure, the next proposal should have been discussed, but Hiruzaru Sarutobi said:
"Now that this proposal has been passed, the old man proposes that Orochimaru be the lead researcher of this project. Do you have any other candidates to recommend?"

Hearing Sarutobi's words, Tsunade, who had managed to suppress his anger, raised his head again, and stared at his teacher in disbelief. At this time, she finally understood.

Why didn't her teammates come to the meeting twice in a row.

In one incident, he was backstabbed by his teacher, his disciples, and his own teammates. At this moment, Tsunade felt confused and hesitant like never before.

"boom!"

Tsunade stood up suddenly and walked towards the door. Her sudden gaffe stunned everyone in the conference room. Kato was stunned for a second, then stood up and said:

"Master Hokage, Tsunade should be feeling unwell, I'll go see her."

"ASAP."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi waved his hand, and Kato Dan immediately stood up and chased in the direction Tsunade left.

When the two walked out of the meeting room, Kato Kan saw Tsunade just standing in the corridor outside the door. Kato Kan immediately closed the meeting room door and looked at Tsunade not far away.

"come out!"

Tsunade said suddenly irritably, Kato had a puzzled look on his face, and pointed at himself, but Tsunade didn't look at him, and didn't seem to be talking to him.

Just when Kato was puzzled, another figure suddenly appeared in the corridor, short and thin, wearing Anbe costumes, Kato went through the members of Anbe he knew in his mind, and none of them were worthy of the name.

And soon, he saw the blue and white curly hair of this Anbu ninja, and then he understood the identity of this Anbu.

Tatsuma appeared, looked at Tsunade, and looked at Katou who was not far away with a surprised face, and reached out to remove the Yasha mask that would unconsciously give people a funny look on his face.

"teacher."

Looking at Tatsuma, Tsunade held back his breath and asked, "Oshemaru is the lead researcher of the project, do you know about it or not?"

"guessed."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"No need."

Perhaps because he was still wearing Anbu's uniform, Tatsuma's answer was still unconsciously overly concise. Of course, there may be another reason, that is, talking to Tsunade with a normal mentality, he would always be angry at Tsunade's stupidity .

And when he gets angry, Tsunade will get angrier, and then he will be beaten up again.

Hearing Tatsuma's answer, Tsunade's anger was somewhat stagnant, and another emotion called incomprehension arose, and she asked instinctively, "Why?"

"Because he is the best researcher, even if he doesn't participate now, and the research fails in the future, the daimyo will ask why the best researcher, Orochimaru, is not allowed to lead the research.

Then the village will continue to invite Mr. Oshemaru to lead this research project, and he also lacks the confidence to really refuse. He will eventually become the lead researcher. With his personality, he may get a good bargaining chip and join readily. "

Tatsuma's answer made Tsunade nod instinctively again. It sounded like his teammates would make the wrong choice!How long has this kid known Orochimaru, how can he know better than himself?

But at this time, the anger in Tsunade's heart has disappeared a lot, and she even felt a kind of sympathy for Orochimaru, and asked: "Then what do you think is the bargaining chip for the village to let Orochimaru take action?"

Hearing this, Chen Ma also frowned slightly, and couldn't help thinking about what kind of bargaining chip could impress Orochimaru. After thinking about it, Chen Ma said, "Maybe it's the research funding of other projects."

Seeing that Tatsuma didn't know too well, Tsunade stopped thinking about it, and was planning to go home and be sulked all by herself. After all, she has no money now, can't go to pubs or casinos, and since she is not here, she can't let her beat her up. Take a break.

But as soon as he turned his head, he saw Kato Dan who was stunned. Seeing this secret investigation of himself, he might be a potential enemy who wanted to attack him. Tsunade's face suddenly collapsed, and he asked dissatisfiedly:

"You eavesdropped on our conversation?!"

Hearing that, Kato Dan was really embarrassed. After all, when Tsunade and Tatsuma master and apprentice talked, he did not avoid it. Strictly speaking, he was indeed eavesdropping.

"Feel sorry."

Kato Dan admitted his mistake generously, and then said: "I invite you to go to the Yakitori restaurant. I recently found a restaurant with good grilled chicken and wine. You should like it very much."

Tsunade narrowed his eyes, and said with a sneer, "Will it be easier for you to attack me after I'm drunk?"

Tsunade's naked words made Kato blush, and in line with the principle of honesty, he nodded involuntarily.

Seeing that the enemy hiding in the village was so bold, Tsunade's face turned darker, but the dissatisfaction in his bones also surged up, and he said, "Okay, then drink! Anyway, your drinking capacity is so bad.

Just see when I get drunk first, you attack me, or you get drunk first, I attack you! "

"This"

Kato Duan's face turned even redder, and Chen Ma slapped his forehead, feeling that the two of them could not be saved.
