As a Hokage, I don't dare to be a loyal minister of Konoha!

In Chapter 93, he started to go crazy and beat the third generation's face to pieces.

Ninja world.

In the Kingdom of Thunder, outside the stronghold where the Tsuchikage and Raikage are located.

Danzo walked out with a confused look on his face.

The outcome of things was somewhat different from what he imagined.

He came here to check the situation and see if he could be given less compensation.

Because Konoha was the defeated party by default, Danzo was prepared to be ridiculed even before he came.

There was no way, judging from the results, Ohnoki was indeed the one who lured the wolf into the village. Even if Danzo's original intention was to find help for Konoha, he deserved to take the blame for not doing the job well.

So he had already mentally prepared himself. As long as Onoki's words were not too extreme, he would just think that the Tsuchikage was farting, and he would tolerate it as long as he could.

But the strange thing is that this meeting to confirm the truce between the three major powers will go unexpectedly smoothly.

Even regarding the issue of compensation, the Tsuchikage and Raikage have always believed that this can be discussed. Now that the war is over, everyone should put aside their hatred and even form an alliance. The so-called compensation is just a formality. Looking back on the specific details, they will send a professional team and The Hokage contacted him and said that the compensation would not embarrass the Hokage.

For Konoha, this is simply pie in the sky!

"Sure enough, my face is quite useful."

After thinking for a long time, Danzo couldn't think of a reason and smiled slightly, with a proud look on his face again.

A simple mission can save a huge amount of compensation for the village. Only Danzo Shimura in Konoha can do this!
No matter how you look at it, this is a great achievement!
In a sense, this can be regarded as making up for one's mistakes and making a great contribution!
Maybe when the time comes, the fifth Hokage will be elected, and that person, considering his contribution this time, may re-appoint himself as a high-level executive!
While thinking about it, Danzo left the stronghold with cheerful steps.

He planned to go back quickly and tell his old buddy Sarutobi Hiruzen the good news.

But Lord Danzo, who had just made a great contribution, obviously didn't know.

The moment he stepped away from the stronghold, Onoki and Ai looked at each other, and then couldn't help laughing. The mocking laughter made the guards standing guard at the door stand on guard.

After a long time, Lei Ying coughed and finally stopped smiling.

"I really looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a high regard. What does this mean to him? Is he showing off to us in disguise?"

Konoha actually acquiesced that he was the defeated party. From his perspective, it gave the Land of Thunder enough face. Even if it was only a nominal victor, it would also increase the influence of Kumogakure Village in the ninja world.

And this time, the stance of the Hokage of the First Ninja Village was low enough.

Not only did he acknowledge the victory of Kumogakure and Iwagakure, in addition to reputation, he also planned to provide financial compensation. To be honest, he didn't care how much money he could get, but through this incident, he and the Tsuchikage seemed to understand the character of the Third Hokage better. .

"I thought he was very courageous before, but it seems that I am blind."

Onoki sighed slightly, after all, he still overestimated Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Judging from the Hokage's attitude on this matter, if nothing else happens, we will definitely be able to take the lead in negotiating with Konoha this time."

"By the time."

Going to negotiate as a victorious country is different from the defeated country discussed before.

Defeat, our previous negotiations were a sign of sincerity, showing that we really wanted to cease the war.

But if it is the victorious side, and we go there in person, it will give you Konoha face, and you Konoha must show an attitude! Even if there is a conflict, it will be better to use the topic as an excuse.

Moreover, they agreed to Danzo's request, but on the other hand, we asked for less money, so should you also provide convenience?

"It seems that the current situation in Konoha is worse than we imagined."

Ohnoki was so scheming that he could analyze many things just by relying on Danzo's unconfident and tentative tone.

"They want to stop the war more than we do!"

Once people are afraid, they become weak.

Konoha is close to running out of oil and gas, and they can even threaten to start another war. In short, there is an extremely huge space for them to use.

"I am also a little surprised."

Raikage frowned,

"Based on the friction I arranged at the border of the Land of Fire, as well as many tests, it is clear that the Hyuga clan is not injured."

"Also, although the Uchiha clan, who are members of the Konoha Guards, suffered heavy losses in the war, Mangekyo Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui, who may be able to influence the situation of the war, are still alive. With their suppression of tailed beasts, I mean, I’m not very afraid of the Jinchuuriki of our village.”

"If we continue to fight, we will probably lose!"

"But Naruto is so lacking in confidence."

There's something wrong here!

It seems that the village is not united and there must be internal conflicts.

Ohnoki and Ai looked at each other and seemed to have discovered a blind spot.

In the end, the two re-formulated the plan from the perspective of the victorious country.

The plan contents are as follows.

First, send an envoy group to inquire about information within Konoha, and then further test the relationship between the Hyuga clan, the Uchiha clan and Konoha's senior officials to obtain first-hand information.

Second, contact the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder and the Daimyo of the Earth at the same time, and ask the Daimyo of the Fire Country to go to Konoha in person to serve as a witness for the peace talks. It is best to let the Daimyo of the Fire Country personally preside over the peace talks.

Third, secretly contact the Hokage to test Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude and find out whether he resists the leakage of blood inheritance limits and whether there is the possibility of cooperation. If the other party relents, it is not impossible to make concessions on compensation.

After many studies, the Tsuchikage and Raikage finally determined the three main directions, and then began to arrange the issue of sending the envoys.

As their actions became larger and larger, news about the impending truce between the Kingdom of Thunder, the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Fire began to spread in the ninja world.

This is not good news for some people.

Among them was the Sunagakure Village, which had no energy left to participate in the war, but was happy to see them break their heads.

According to rumors, the fourth generation Kazekage Rasa was furious in the Kazekage office after hearing the news of the peace talks between the three major countries, and secretly summoned the elders. It seemed that there was an arrangement.

However, it is unknown whether it is authentic.

Fire Nation.

Konoha.

This time, Danzo-sama, who came back as a hero, did not let the third generation lead everyone to wait for him at the entrance of the village. Instead, he hurried straight to the Hokage Building and reported all his gains in one breath.

At this point, his mission was successfully completed, and Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief.

Danzo returned to the village safely, which means that the peace between the three great ninja villages is not just a verbal agreement in a letter, but an actual contact, which is authoritative and authentic!
Now, it’s time to inform the following about this news!

Danzo even brought back more favorable news. It seemed that Iwagakure and Kumogakure had made great concessions on the issue of compensation.

This is a real achievement!
Although it will not stabilize his position as Hokage, as long as he does this well, safe retirement is not a problem at all.

It can also greatly improve your voice in arranging the next Hokage!
Now in the village, there are different opinions on the choice of the fifth generation Hokage. If possible, Sarutobi Hiruzen would like to choose an obedient Hokage similar to the fourth generation.

And with luck, what if a miracle really happens?

"Everyone, peace has come!"

Finally getting a chance to show off, Sarutobi seemed a little eager.

After urgently convening a group of senior officials and the clan leaders of Konoha, the old Hokage in the conference room announced the news of the arrival of peace.

Below, representatives of various ethnic groups were speechless one after another.

Silence began to spread.

The expected cheers did not come, but instead the atmosphere was a bit cold.

People's eyes were not filled with joy, but in their numb emotions there was only the joy of surviving the disaster, and the fear of war that had not subsided.

In the corner of the conference room, Tsunade next to Hyuga Richeng leaned against him silently. She closed her eyes in slight pain. What appeared in her mind were the faces that she had not saved this time. The Richeng clan leader did not He spoke, just held her hand and gave her silent comfort.

In fact, a few minutes ago, they suddenly got the news that Sarutobi summoned them for a meeting. Their nerves were tense for a moment. Many people even thought that because of the recent news about peace, they became angry after hearing it. Being slack will give the enemy another opportunity to take advantage of.

After all, the Tsuchikage and Raikage had done this before, deliberately releasing news of peace talks, and then increasing their efforts to catch them off guard.

But now, Sarutobi Hiruzen really announced the arrival of peace. They seemed to be in a dream, and they couldn't recover for a while.

Many people who were emotionally tense suddenly relaxed, and a touch of bitterness appeared on their numb faces. Many people shed tears secretly, thinking of their brothers and sisters who died yesterday.

Even Brother Fugaku rarely pretended to be pretentious. He just leaned on his chair and sighed. Their only attitude towards the war now is awe.

Evenly matched battles always turn out to be so brutal.

Only one-sided crushing can make people enjoy it.

Hinata Hicheng looked at all this, and his grip on Tsunade couldn't help but become much stronger.

Fortunately, compared to a year ago, he has completely mastered the power of the reincarnated eye, and his connection with the golden wheel reincarnated eye is much closer, and he is not far away from complete mastery.

He is one of the few people who is qualified to lead his people to enjoy war, and in this era there is no one like Senju Hashirama to stand up and stop him.

After a long time, the tense atmosphere in the conference room slowly recovered, and the numbness was gradually replaced by joy. Remembering the deceased can be done later.

Now, it's time to enjoy the joy of the aftermath.

At least they are still alive!

As long as you live, life will continue.

"In short, thanks to my unremitting efforts, the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Earth have agreed to a truce. A delegation of envoys will be sent to Konoha soon to discuss peace and alliance matters."

Seeing everyone's mood changes, Sarutobi smiled slightly and habitually gave himself a credit.

Without him.

Anyway, no one knew that the other party proposed the peace talks first, so why did he directly change the concept and focus his own efforts?
"There's also good news."

The Third Hokage waved to the door and called in his old buddy, the great hero who had been kicked out of the high-level meeting.

Danzo Shimura!

When they saw him appear, everyone's expressions became unsightly.

No one doesn't know why Konoha is fighting so hard in this war!

If Danzo hadn't taken action, how could Yunyin Village alone have allowed so many people to die in this war?

But Danzo is Danzo after all.

Even though everyone was looking at him with resentful eyes, he still stood there without blushing and his heart not beating. He even adjusted his makeup.

"After I worked tirelessly and personally went to the Kingdom of Thunder, I got the exact news. The Raikage and Tsuchikage agreed to reduce the war compensation related to this peace negotiation to a level that is enough for Konoha to bear."

"And they promised that after the peace talks, Konoha, Kumogakure Village, and Iwagakure Village will become an alliance, and they will not refuse the Chunin Exam invited by Konoha in the future."

This is basically giving away all the face!
It was Danzo who fought for it back!
As we all know, every village has its own pride, just like in the original book. It doesn’t mean that if you hold the Chunin Exam in Konoha, they will definitely come to participate. They are here to give you face and recognize the authority of this exam. He himself didn't expect that the Tsuchikage and Raikage would be so generous.

Once the alliance is reached and the three parties jointly hold the Chuunin Exam, the scale will probably be unprecedentedly large. When everyone discusses it, won't the prestige of the person who facilitated it come about?
"Thank you for your hard work. You have done a great job this time, Danzo, so..."

Sarutobi took over the conversation and was obviously very satisfied with Danzo's performance.

But just when he was about to move on to the next topic, discussing how to receive the envoys in order to show the courage of Konoha's No. 1 Ninja Village, an inappropriate voice came.

"My subordinate has a question that I would like to ask Hokage-sama."

Following everyone's gaze, people saw the person who spoke.

Hyuga Hicheng, the current patriarch of the Hyuga clan!
This is a magical clan. In the early days of the war, they were able to resist Yunyin Village with their own strength. It is even said that the gap that still exists today was just a casual blow from him. They are truly strong.

What surprised them was that in the subsequent war, the Hyuga clan performed quite well, and the Hyuga clan was rarely seen active in the village. Each of them became reclusive, completely different from the high-profile Uchiha clan.

"Clan Chief Richeng, please speak."

Sarutobi narrowed his eyes and stared at the other person calmly. As the Hokage, he was quite dissatisfied with this kind of subordinate who interrupted his speech, but he couldn't do anything about the other person.

He swore that once he found an opportunity to target the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan who liked to show off, he would never hold back!

But what he thinks is one thing, and what he does is another matter. For now, he must play the role of a respected Hokage.

"Now that the war is over, I want to know who is the victor and who is the loser?"

Hinata and Hinata tactically fell back.

"I just heard what you and Danzo-sama said. Does this mean that Konoha is the loser? Are you actually planning to pay compensation to the other party?"

Yup!

Why should you pay compensation to the other party?

The tragic war killed many of them here. If they admit defeat now, wouldn't their brothers and sisters die in vain?
They hate war and do not want to continue the war. They also want to seize this opportunity for peace talks.

But he became the loser for no reason and had to compensate the other party. This is so frustrating.

"There is no winner in this war. Everyone is a loser. I am just promoting peace talks. I don't think there is anything wrong with paying some price to quell the war."

Sarutobi's face darkened, and he came up with the words he had prepared from the beginning.

And that's what he thinks, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

"According to Patriarch Richeng's intention, I should not promote peace talks and continue the war? A winner must be determined? Who will be responsible for those who die then? Or is it that Patriarch Richeng intends to use himself to take action? Lead the Hyuga clan to fight for Konoha to the end?"

The third generation is worthy of being the third generation. In terms of internal affairs, his sharpness of words has skyrocketed. He can turn an army against him in an instant, and even gained recognition from many people with his words.

The war cannot continue. If you think about it carefully, what the Hokage said seems right.

but.
"sure."

The patriarch directly agreed, but if I agree, do you dare to go crazy with the patriarch?

If his third generation had that courage, sows could climb trees!

Clan leader Richeng nodded calmly, "As long as everyone here does not object, I can lead the Hyuuga clan to fight to the end at any time and determine the outcome completely."

"Brother! Don't be impulsive!"

Brother Fugaku, who thought that Hinata and Isei was on top, quickly shook his head at him, and he couldn't help but lament that the leader of the Risei clan was more extreme than him, an Uchiha.

"Forget it, Chief Richeng, the war is finally over."

"Yes, Chief Richeng, we know that the Hyuga clan is unparalleled in bravery, but there is no need to continue to sacrifice ourselves."

"It's just some compensation, no need to get angry."

"The village can no longer withstand the hardships. Chief Richeng must put the overall situation first."

"."

Sure enough.

There were voices of persuasion all around, but Sandai's face was livid. He really wanted to agree in public and let Hinata die on his own, but the problem was not that simple. He had to consider whether doing so would anger Iwagakure and Kumogakure again. village.

It is impossible for him to rekindle the war that was almost extinguished unless he clearly told the Tsuchikage and Raikage that this was Hinata's own decision and Konoha would not provide support. You should kill them quickly.

There is even a possibility of facing a worse outcome. What if after he agrees, the Hyuga clan directly surrenders to the enemy and attacks Konoha? The Hyuga clan is on the outermost side, and it will be too late to control their families. And if they hook up with Uchiha, how can we fight this war? Now Konoha still has some confidence in negotiations, isn't it because these two clans still have some strength?

To put it simply, the third generation felt that Hinata Issei stood up to show off knowing this. What was uncomfortable was that he had no points to refute, so he felt aggrieved.

Come on, Hinata is pretending, he will bear the grievances and scapegoats for three generations! He really belongs to others in terms of face and face!
There were constant voices of persuasion all around.

And Hyuga Hicheng was looking at this former No. 1 Ninja Village like this, the conscience of heaven and earth. He really didn't have as many dramas in his mind as the third generation described to him. He was just burying Sarutobi and repeatedly hitting him in the face. It’s just everyone’s reaction.

But the fact is.
The war has left them with a psychological shadow. Even if they default to defeat, they don't want to go through that cruel hell anymore.

This has something to do with the fact that one soldier is a raging beast, and a raging den is a den. Most people who have experienced wars are like this, but in fact, Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village can hardly afford to fight, but in the end, Konoha still has one less person who dares to fight. Have the courage to fight.

In fact, Hyuga and Isei knew this, and he also knew that if he mentioned this matter, he would be opposed by others.

It's not like Brother Fugaku said that he has lost his mind or become extreme.

Just related to the future time in the original work, and an opportunity not long after, he had to say something in advance to tell everyone that the Hyuga clan has the courage to challenge a village!

He is no longer who he was a year ago, and Hinata is not who she was a year ago. When he has the capital to flip the table, he doesn't mind behaving in a high-profile manner.

"In this case, Hinata will not share a single cent of the compensation."

Standing up, Chief Richeng walked towards the door step by step. When he was about to leave, he turned a corner and came to the old village chief.

Stretching out his hand, he helped the old village chief straighten his collar, flicked the dust on his shoulders, and then expressed his attitude.

"Konoha lost, but I, Hinata, didn't lose. Is it okay for me to understand this?"

The performance of everyone in the conference room today also made Hyuga Hicheng completely understand something. They had long lost the courage of the so-called No. 1 Ninja Village. They would rather choose the way of failure to survive. This is a village that is heading for the end.

At this moment, Hyuga Hicheng was actually a little disappointed, but the world was still uncertain, so there was no need to rush.

The number one ninja village became like this, and the people in front of it played a huge role in it.

and so.

"If you don't speak for three generations, your subordinates will take it as your acquiescence."

There was a pause.

"In addition, Hokage-sama, please take care of yourself. As the strongest Hokage, the future of Konoha depends entirely on you."

Patting Sandai's old face, not paying any attention to his face that was twisted with anger, the Richeng clan leader chuckled and turned around to leave.
Live well, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Konoha is truly blessed to have you.
