Escape From Konoha

Latest website: Hokage Building, Conference Room.

A group of people sat around a round conference table, each with a more or less grim expression.

Three generations of Hokage, Sarutobi Hidden.

Koharu and Mitomon Kazuki, the transition of the advisory group.

The root minister is Shimura Danzo.

In addition to these four people, there are also leaders of the ninja clan who can participate in decision-making, such as the head of the Hinata clan, Hinata Hizu, and the head of the Nara clan, Nara Shikahisa. Even among the very few Jōnin, they are all elites with real power in Konoha.

"Let's talk about your own views, how should we deal with this matter."

The first to speak was the third generation of Hokage Sun Zhan. He was holding a simple talisman paper in his hand, and a warm power was constantly conveyed on the talisman paper. This kind of warm chakra is a yang yang with healing power. Attribute Chakra.

It's just that because the talisman paper is too rough, the positive attribute chakra is flowing outward, and it cannot be preserved for a long time.

But even so, it couldn't resist the light in the depths of everyone's eyes.

Because everyone here knows that this seemingly simple talisman paper, once thrown into the commercial market of the ninja world, can cause an uproar, and the power of Konoha will become more stable.

Even the strategic level can be further improved, greatly reducing the sacrificial rate of Konoha ninjas.

At the same time, for each ninja, it is also an opportunity to obtain huge profits.

No political group represented by the Ninja tribe would like to miss such an opportunity.

This is also the reason Kakashi didn't want to hide it after reporting the medical talisman.

Because I can't hide it.

With the strength and resources in his hands, it is impossible to swallow the medical talisman alone.

And if this kind of thing is concealed, it will only make the relationship between many ninjas and Hokage begin to diverge from virtue, making the political environment inside Konoha even worse.

Rather than doing some thankless things, Niizhan hopes that through this incident, he will draw more power and pave the way for the next five generations of Hokage.

"This matter is of great importance. For this little girl named Haruno Sakura, it should be protected by special personnel, and all channels that may leak information should be blocked."

Xiaochun, who was the transition of the advisory group, opened his mouth to express his suggestion.

"So, who will be in charge of this?"

Sun Zhan asked.

Turning to bed, Xiaochun did not respond.

Although she would like to say that this matter can be handled by the advisory group as a neutral representative, but in this way, it is too ugly to eat.

Moreover, so many ninja forces are also eyeing, just how to distribute the benefits is enough to give them a headache.

"I have a different opinion on this matter."

A voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone's eyes swept to the position of the Hyuga clan vaguely, and the person who spoke was the head of the Hyuga clan's clan, Hyuga Hizu.

Not to mention the strength of the elite Jōnin, the power of the blood-based ninja clan is more deterrent than the pure ninja ninja clan in all aspects.

Ri Zhan did not respond, but his eyes were already signaling Rizu to continue.

Sunzu was not polite. Under everyone's attention, he said calmly: "We have already seen the medical talisman, although the value has not been determined, but after making it into a finished product, I think it will not disappoint. Then. , the only question is... Does this little girl called Haruno Sakura have the ability to perfect this medical amulet?"

Hizu's words also resonated with Nara Shikahisa, he took a deep breath and said: "Yes, I agree with the view of the Hizu patriarch, at present we are not sure whether Haruno Sakura has the ability to further improve the medical talisman. As we have seen, the current medical amulet is rough and rudimentary, and it is completely impossible to pass the test of the market, let alone make a profit. On the contrary, we have to inject research funds for this, mobilize a large number of medical ninjas and experts who are good at sealing. Ninja."

In fact, Lu Jiu also has his own considerations about this matter.

He said that just to divert the attention of the rest.

Because the specific interests of the medical talisman have not yet been determined, it is too much to divide it here.

Although Lu Jiu is not a businessman, his family is also rich in medicinal materials, and he also understands some operational concepts.

The prospects for medical talismans are indeed vast, but they are only prospects after all.

As long as it has not been determined to become a fact, then you can only invest in the early stage and wait for time to test.

Just like the so-called genius, a genius without maturity is just a genius, and a genius who grows up is the truly feared powerhouse.

"The issue of capital injection, there should be some reserve funds for this year."

Mitomon Yan said.

"It was deliberately stored for emergencies, and it must not be used unless it is in a critical situation."

Hidden rejected this suggestion.

Although the Daimyo Prefecture has given a lot of support to Konoha in recent years, there is still an upper limit on development funds.

As long as the threat of the country of ghosts is not lifted, the general direction of Konoha will still focus on the development of military power, rather than shifting the development center and devoting energy to the medical industry.

Because even if it is Sun Slash, it is uncertain how long it will take for the Medical Talisman to appear.

One year, three years, or ten years.

The formation of a technology, and then through the affirmation of the market, is far from being solved in a few words.

Time, talent, capital, equipment, all require a lot of investment.

The current Konoha lacks not only military strength, but also technical talents.

In addition, the industrial reserves must also keep up. Then, the establishment of a special research project for medical talismans will once again hollow out the roots of Konoha.

Japanese chop needs to weigh the pros and cons of these.

The most important thing is, because Haruno Sakura is Kakashi's student, and Kakashi's report to him is very detailed, the medical talisman is just a product that Haruno Sakura accidentally invented. Whether Haruno Sakura can continue to further improve the defects of the medical charm and make it a finished product, as Hizu and Shikahisa said, is full of uncertainty.

In order to attach importance to the enhancement of military power, Konoha was already tight for development funds, and he had to invest Konoha's blood on a twelve-year-old girl. Success is good, but in case of failure... it's not a joke. Konoha's development is likely to stall temporarily for this.

The current international situation is a critical moment in a race against time. Every time the next step is stopped, it may cause a huge gap in national strength, putting Konoha in a disadvantageous situation.

Even if you want to give it a shot at Haruno Sakura, the amount of capital to be injected needs to be carefully considered, and you can't put all your hopes on a twelve-year-old Genin.

"If this is the case, you can let the patriarchs allocate some funds from their own family industries. This is also for the future of the village. Afterwards, according to the funds provided by each family, the annual resource allocation will be tilted accordingly. ."

Turning to bed, Xiaochun said.

But her eyes were focused on Hizu.

As a ninja with the same long history as Uchiha and Qianshou, even if some of the ninjas of the family split off, their strength is only damaged, but the family heritage is still there.

Especially the family industry controlled by the Hinata clan, the wealth accumulated by their family, even the ninja alliance such as Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi, may not be comparable in wealth.

This is the essence of the difference between the Xueji Bianjie family and the general ninja family.

Although the Hyuga Clan is relatively low-key among Konoha, in many cases, they cannot ignore the extremely crucial vote of the Hyuga Clan.

"Sorry, I can't trust the ability of a little girl who is only twelve years old. If Tsunade-sama is in charge of this project, I believe that my clan and I will agree, but we must pin this hope on a little girl, Too risky."

Rizu did not continue, but closed his eyes, the meaning is self-evident.

If you want to gamble with the huge funds of the Hinata family on the body of a twelve-year-old girl, even the Hinata family will not agree with this.

"But the medical amulet was made by her first, and her idea is very important. We can't deny this. Besides, we can set up another special project team to carry out both sides at the same time."

Turning to bed, Xiaochun continued.

"Then it will be divided into two project teams, and the funds of the Hyuga family can only be allocated to the second dedicated project team. In short, the funds of the Hyuga family are hard-won, and now the materials in all aspects of the village are in short supply. It’s a little better to develop in a sound way.”

Seeking stability in everything is in line with the ruling strategy of the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan was betting on Haruno Sakura to make a medical talisman, but it was just a flash of inspiration, and it was impossible to achieve anything afterwards.

Because product research is such a thing, it's full of uncertainty.

Although the uncertainty of Haruno Sakura may lead to the early release of the medical charm, it is more likely that it will disappear in the future.

The risks are too great, and the current international environment is extremely tense. Not only the village, but also the Hinata clan who are attached to Ninja Village must take protective measures and spend every money on the edge.

After listening to Sunzu's views, the patriarchs of each family also kept silent, and no one opened their mouths to express their views.

They are also considering the pros and cons.

The creator of the product is hard to ignore anyway, because genius ideas are always different. Often a whimsical idea may solve a problem that has been troubled by others for a long time.

But whether Haruno Sakura has this potential or not, after listening to Hizu's words, they are a little unsure now.

Because the Hyuga clan is so cautious, the weaker clan should naturally be more cautious and not bet at will.

Although it is possible to make friends with a genius, the family may benefit, but if this 'genius' is mixed with a lot of water, it may also cause the family to suffer huge losses.

"In that case, continue to pay attention to that Shimonin called Haruno Sakura for a while, and then start thinking about how to arrange her. Let's see if her ability is worth our investment." : "In this case, there is no problem for the time being, right, Rijian?"

Koharu seemed to want to say something else when she turned to bed, but Mito Menyan shook her head slightly at her.

The advisory group is a member of the high-level, but compared to Naruto and Genbu, the real power in their hands is not enough to issue orders to the ninja.

Even the smallest ninja, the advisory group needs to think twice if they want to instruct them to act.

In the past, I went to the Hyuga clan to collect intelligence information about Baiyan, and it was only in the name of the three generations of Hokage that they were able to run wild in the Hyuga clan.

Otherwise, just relying on the power of the Hyuga clan, even the advisory group, this clan would not necessarily pay attention to the so-called request for instructions.

In the past few years, the relationship between the advisory group and Hokage has become relatively indifferent. Naturally, the attitude of the Hinata clan towards the advisory group is not as important as before.

The weakness of the Hyuga clan in the village is only relative.

At the critical moment, no one dared to underestimate the heritage of this ancient family.

What's more, because there is another Hinata clan in the country of ghosts, Konoha's Hinata clan should be more protected and appeased, rather than persecuted.

"Then first mobilize some medical ninjas and ninjas who are proficient in sealing techniques, and funded by various ninja tribes to set up a special research project team. Haruno Sakura... I will let Kakashi see the aftermath. As for Haruno Sakura's personal For research funding, the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans will be responsible for the time being."

Rizu paused and made a decision.

◎

"What is the purpose of Hokage-sama's arrangement?"

In the courtyard of the Nara family, Akito Dingza and Yamanaka Kaiichi were sitting in a quiet room, opposite Nara Shikahisa. It seemed that both of them were a little confused about the meeting just now.

"What else can it be, attract the geniuses of the new generation to serve the next five generations of Hokage. By the way, use the power of our three clans to provide them with protection and prevent some people from jumping over the wall. After all, investing in personal research does not require the three of us together. "

Nara Shikahisa shook the teacup in his hand bored, showing a helpless smile.

"Luhisa, you mean Tsunade-sama..."

Hai Yi's expression changed.

"Although the medical talisman is not even a half-finished product, the visible benefits, even for a person like me, it is difficult to maintain absolute composure. Now I am a real poor ghost."

Kakashi said half-jokingly.

Haiyi and Dingza knew that Lujiu was joking.

Now Lu Jiu is indeed very short of money. In order to develop Konoha, Lu Jiu can be said to be conscientious and dedicated over the years.

Many areas of Konoha need capital injection and development.

Once the medical symbol market is formed, from a long-term perspective, the advantages will definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

However, Konoha's current predicament is not suitable for saving military expenses in a big way and injecting large sums of funds into the medical field.

To be precise, it was not Lu Jiu who was short of money, but Konoha Village.

"Lord Hokage is so convinced that the little girl named Haruno Sakura will succeed?"

Ding Zuo was a little suspicious.

"It's not a firm belief, it's just a test. Anyway, the three of us each put together some research funds, it's not a broken one. And if the other party really relies on his personal strength to provide a more complete idea for the completion of the medical talisman, It's not just the three of us, it's also an opportunity for Konoha to be reborn. Konoha... No, the national strength of the country of fire is no longer what it used to be. After all, the future needs young people to lead. Believe in young people once, why not? ?"

For today's third-generation Hokage, Shikaku is quite satisfied. Although in terms of personality, he is still somewhat indecisive, but at least he does not rely too much on the strength of the roots and the advisory group as before, and begins to focus on the cultivation of the new generation and build a bridge of trust with the new generation.

However, Lu Jiu also knows that the idea of ​​​​three generations of Hokage awakening is too late.

In the past, too much time was wasted, and Konoha also spent a lot of internal power because of various interests.

After that, the disappearance of the Uchiha family caused Konoha to lose a lot, and the deterrent force to the outside world was not as good as a year.

It is even said internationally that the Uchiha family of the country of ghosts is the orthodox Uchiha. Konoha's Uchiha is just a fake family.

"Is that so? I thought it was the Hinata clan that played a balancing role."

Hai Yi was surprised.

"The balance of the Hyuga clan is indeed very important, but the one who really made Hokage-sama settle down is the Danzo elder who didn't say a word at the meeting. Otherwise, no matter how outstanding a talent is, as long as the root side disagrees, the matter will be over. It’s hard to be kind. After all, it’s easy to hide with a bright gun, but hard to defend against a dark arrow.”

Lu Jiu was drinking tea and said meaningfully.

Hai Yi and Ding Zuo's expressions were a little solemn.

root!

At this time, the two of them noticed that at the meeting just now, Shimura Danzo, the leader of the root group, didn't say a word, and his presence was almost zero.

If Lu Jiu hadn't mentioned it at this time, they would have even ignored the existence of this person.

"You mean, the root will act next?"

Haiyi asked.

"Probably not. Elder Danzo also focuses on balance. Otherwise, at the meeting just now, he would not have sat there without saying a word. Silence means supporting Hokage-sama's proposal. At least in terms of selection, The root is not so unscrupulous. Should it be said that it is the darkness of tolerance?"

Kakashi smiled slightly.

Danzo is an unprincipled ninja.

Many Konoha Junin who know the existence of the roots are aware of this.

But in many cases, Danzo's behavior is full of principles.

For example, a ninja who enters the root must meet certain conditions.

Otherwise, no matter how good the ninja is, the root will not open the door for it.

And this kind of Danzo made Lu Jiu even more terrifying.

Because Danzo, who follows the principle of doing things like this, can no longer reveal any handle, and the power in Konoha is more deeply rooted.

Compared with the advisory group whose position is always wavering, Danzo's approach is undoubtedly much more mature and smart.

The roots are like a double-edged sword.

External in times of war, internal in times of peace.

"No matter what, the person who ultimately decides the village is Hokage-sama."

Haiyi and Dingzu comforted Lujiu like this.

Lu Jiu nodded, but the worry in his eyes did not dissipate.

That's right, in the end the village can only call the shots of Hokage.

But that's what he's afraid of.

- Danzo wants to gain the position of Hokage.

Danzo and the third Naruto are ninjas of the same generation. With the age of the other party, it is time to wait for the fifth Naruto to abdicate and fight for the sixth Naruto position.

Then, Danzo can only use some extraordinary means if he wants to be a high-ranking Hokage.

Like... a coup!

The armed force possessed by the root has always been a mystery in the eyes of Lu Jiu.

When the Anbu system was infiltrated by foreign spies, only the roots let those foreign spies return without success.

Such a radical group with powerful armed forces coveting the position of Hokage, Shikahisa shuddered just thinking about it.

The battle for the position of the fifth Hokage may be the beginning of Konoha's next stage of internal friction.

Lu Jiu must guard against this kind of thing, prepare for the worst, and not give the roots any opportunity to take advantage.

"Okay, you two go back first, I will discuss arrangements with Kakashi over Haruno Sakura. There is no need to let the boys in the family deliberately touch anything, young people's affairs, just let the flow take its course. It's too deliberate. If you do, it will cause the other party's resentment.”

Compared with Haruno Sakura, Shikaku is more worried about the root problem.

At least the current Haruno Sakura is just emerging. Whether it has higher cultivation value is still uncertain, and it will take some time to observe.

The threat to the roots is obvious.

"Thank you for your hard work, Kakashi. You did a great job on this."

In the dark woods, the old man showed a slightly gloomy face, which looked quite scary in the dark environment.

It is the group.

Behind him, followed by Yamanaka Kaze and Oil Maid Togene, two genojo ninja guards.

There are also a large number of root ninja scattered around, hiding in the dark.

Kakashi noticed the root ninjas who were staring at him secretly, and he didn't care. He just replied as usual: "It's nothing, Danzo-sama, I'm just doing what I should do."

Danzo nodded lightly, and a slight relief appeared on his slightly gloomy face.

"The value of Haruno Sakura is up to you to judge. What she needs, try to satisfy her as much as possible. If there are not enough research materials and funds, some of the roots will be allocated here."

As a long-term collaborator with Orochimaru, Danzo knows the importance of talent.

Since Haruno Sakura was able to unintentionally develop something like a medical talisman, it meant that the opponent's talents were no longer limited to the level of ordinary ninjas.

Calling it a genius, given the current situation, it may be too much, but if the other party continues to study on the medical talisman, maybe it can really provide ideas that are different from others, which can speed up the completion of the medical talisman. Even if it is accelerated a little, the investment in the root is meaningful~www.readwn.com~ Yes. "

"As for security, let Anbu take over temporarily. It is not convenient for this old man to intervene. In addition, I have ordered Feng to raise your position level at the root to A-level. I hope you will not disappoint this old man."

Danzo turned away without waiting for Kakashi's response.

The mountain stroke and the oil girl Fukugen nodded slightly to Kakashi, and it was considered that they agreed with the other party's position in the root, and their attitude seemed more friendly.

"Then, let's talk when we have time, Kakashi. I hope you can live up to the trust of Danzo-sama. When Danzo-sama succeeds Hokage in the future, you will still be the supreme commander of Anbu."

After finishing speaking, Shan Zhongfeng and Oil Girl Tougen followed Danzo and left.

Kakashi stood still, watching Danzo and the others leave.

Slowly, the mud at his feet bulged slightly, and a mud head emerged with a faint gaze.
