Chapter 236 He said all our words!
Konoha.
The Hokage office building was still brightly lit under the night sky.
The meeting room was filled with the clan leaders of all the major families, as well as a dozen important jonin in the village.
During the war, it was clear from this meeting that even the strongest Konoha now had little power in the village.
"Everyone, the war has been going on for more than five years. It will soon be the sixth year. Konoha and even the entire ninja world have been seriously injured because of it..."
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, looked around at everyone majestically and spoke about the current situation.
Especially after he directly announced to the public that he would take all responsibilities for the Third World War, he obviously restored a lot of reputation. After all, the Kage of a ninja village may not be the strongest, but he must not be an irresponsible person.
What's more, the Third Hokage's own son went to the battlefield and ended up like this. Even if the civilians in the village still had resentment, it had dissipated a lot.
Everyone has lost their family members. Even the Hokage sent his son to the dangerous battlefield.
These actions, coupled with the emergence of a young and powerful future Hokage, gave Konoha a new direction.
It has to be said that Konoha F4 has been able to get from the First War to where they are today, and their methods are definitely not bad.
"Everyone, we in Konoha are not doing well, and the four major ninja villages have not benefited either. Especially the plan of the Hidden Mist Village, although it is extremely vicious, it has also been cracked by our ninjas..."
In the conference room, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen first spoke angrily about the conspiracy of Kirigakure, but then turned around and praised the ninja who had perfectly destroyed the Kirigakure plan.
Many ninjas have already turned their eyes to Uchiha Ye.
However, in the meeting, facing the gazes of everyone, especially the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two old guys who were about to speak, he sneered in his heart.
In front of so many people, you want to shut him up and then be a good person?
Think beautiful!
Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was looking melancholy, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu were about to speak, when Uchiha Yami spoke directly from below.
"Third Hokage! Everyone!"
As Uchiha Ye's voice echoed, everyone looked over, especially Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, who were about to speak but were interrupted, making them feel a little frustrated.
But now Uchiha Ye's identity is unusual. Just a pair of Mangekyō is enough to attract attention, not to mention that now he represents the identity of the Police Department, Uchiha, and the captain of the reserve team.
Uchiha Ye slowly stood up and looked at everyone solemnly, and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, I won't go into details about the current situation of the village. No one knows it better than us. The conspiracy of the Hidden Mist Village almost caused an irreversible incident, but it also gave us a chance to end the war!"
As Uchiha Ye's sonorous and powerful voice echoed, the patriarchs of the major families and a dozen important jonin all showed doubts and solemn expressions.
A chance to end the war?
If someone else said this, no one would take it seriously. Can the war in the entire ninja world be stopped just by you saying so?
But after saying that this person was Uchiha Ye, many people looked solemn.
With Uchiha Ye's current status and strength, he would definitely not talk nonsense, so there is definitely a real chance.
However, when Uchiha Ye opened his mouth, Mito Menen and Utane Koharu immediately had a bad feeling in their hearts.
Uchiha Ye glanced at the three old guys above, and didn't give them a chance. He slammed the table and said in a deep voice:
"This time, the Hidden Mist Village lost the most elite Seven Ninja Swordsmen on the front battlefield. The police department has already collected useful information on the bodies of six of them...
The remaining one who escaped, Biwa Juzang, according to our reliable intelligence, this person may be afraid of the punishment if he returns, or he may have defected..."
Uchiha Ya looked around at everyone and calmly shared this important information, which also proved his strength.
However, these words made Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu extremely angry and they both looked at Uchiha Ye with dissatisfaction and anger.
Defeating and killing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist is the duty of a ninja, but the bodies were left in the police department for investigation. This is simply a small Hokage organization.
"Uchiha Night Jonin! Why are you telling me such important information only now!"
Utane Koharu couldn't hold back any longer, and she slammed the table in anger, asking loudly.
However, as soon as he heard this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face changed. He knew something was wrong! As expected!
"Tell you?"
The interrupted Uchiha Ye showed a mocking expression, without giving any face in front of everyone, and sneered directly:
"Since when does the Police Department have a Hokage advisor over its head?"
Boom! After this sentence landed, everyone in the conference room was shocked.
However, Uchiha Ye glanced indifferently at the Hokage advisor who was so angry that his face turned blue. He just glanced at him as if he had never taken him seriously, and his gaze fell directly on the Third Hokage.
"Third Hokage! The Police Department was established during the Second Hokage's reign. It combines the powers of law enforcement, patrol, intelligence, interrogation, supervision, etc....
During the war, I was the captain of the reserve team, the deputy director of the police department, and the director of the medical department! And you are just a mere Hokage advisor, what can I say to you! "
Faced with the arrogant attitude of Utatane Koharu, Uchiha Ye showed a cold look and directly stepped on the Hokage advisor.
"presumptuous!"
At this moment, both Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En showed angry expressions. This time, Uchiha was too presumptuous!
"Shut up!"
However, at this time Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted coldly, obviously speaking to his two old friends, but Uchiha Ye simply smiled contemptuously.
“When the Third Hokage took the throne, due to the turmoil in the village during the war and the fact that he was appointed in times of crisis, he established the so-called Hokage Advisor.
I remember that the so-called Hokage advisor was to assist the Hokage in managing Konoha's political affairs so that the Third Hokage could better manage Konoha, but since when did a Jonin have a Hokage advisor? "
Uchiha Ye's light and sarcastic voice echoed, completely tearing off this fig leaf.
The Hokage advisor is a nominal position and does not have any real power. As a result, because he has been in a high position for a long time, some people really think that he is second only to the Hokage.
Even after so many years, the ninjas of Konoha have become accustomed to having a few old guys over their heads.
However, today, after Uchiha Ye directly tore off the fig leaf, the faces of Mitomon En and Utane Koharu, who were sitting on both sides of the Hokage, changed drastically, and they were even showing a look of shame and anger.
It has been many years since anyone provoked them!
Sarutobi Hiruzen obviously thought of this, which is why he spoke up to stop his two old friends.
The so-called Hokage advisors all have power from the Hokage. The stronger the Hokage, the more influential they will be. However, the reputation of the Third Hokage is no longer what it used to be.
"If it's Danzo, he has the right to speak as the head of the Root. As for the two Hokage advisors, if they are too old, there is a great shortage of ninjas on the front battlefield. Otherwise, they wouldn't let children of a few years old go to the battlefield."
Uchiha Ye's unbridled voice echoed in the meeting, making the heads of the major families feel scalp tingling. It was obvious that Uchiha Ye's words meant that the so-called Hokage advisor had long been more of a hindrance than a help.
Although the Hokage has an unshirkable responsibility for this war, what does the Hokage advisor want you to do?
"you!"
Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu both looked extremely unhappy. The words "advisor jonin" immediately changed the way countless people in the conference room looked at them.
Yes!
Everyone is a jonin, but you have the nominal title of Hokage advisor. "During the war, it is normal for Yan and Xiaochun to be a little emotional."
Facing the aggressive Uchiha Ye, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen showed fear in his eyes, and he was more determined in his heart that he must not let Uchiha and Senju become Hokage.
Otherwise, with such a tough momentum today, the conflict between the new and old forces in the future might even lead to a civil war.
Seeing that the Third Hokage had come forward, Uchiha Ye nodded indifferently. These two old guys were the most disgusting. Although Danzo did not do anything, everything was openly exposed.
"According to the information we have obtained from the brains of Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost, Kurishil Kushimaru, Tongcao Yebairen and others, there are now great divisions within the Hidden Mist Village, especially due to the losses in recent years...
Now that Kirigakure has not opened up to the outside world, internal opposition will only intensify. As I said before, the best opportunity to end the war is Kirigakure!"
At this time in the conference room, after not seeing Minato Namikaze, Uchiha Ye confirmed the plan of these old guys.
You may look down on these old guys, but you must never underestimate their methods.
"Now is the best opportunity to negotiate with Kirigakure, and there is also the Three-Tails!"
When Uchiha Ye said this, he turned around and looked at everyone, revealing an excited look and waving his arms.
"The Kirigakure can no longer hold on. The Three-Tails is a hot potato. If it falls on Konoha, the Three-Tails War will only expand. It will not only fail to strengthen us, but will cause more ninja villages to be wary.
But at this time, if we negotiate with Kirigakure first and use the Three-Tail as an opportunity to say that we are willing to return the Three-Tail to Kirigakure, will Kirigakure still fight?"
Uchiha Ye's voice echoed in the conference room, which made the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen look at him with an ugly expression.
The other party actually guessed his method!
"Master Ye, it's not that we don't want to, but are we going to return the Three-Tails to Kirigakure so easily? What if Kirigakure turns around and fights us again?"
One of the Konoha jonin was obviously filled with reluctance. They had captured the Three-Tails with great difficulty, and now they were going to return it to him just by talking about peace?
So what did they sacrifice so much for?
Uchiha Ye was naturally prepared for this, and he just smiled sarcasticly.
"I didn't say I would return the three-tails easily!"
When he said this, Uchiha Ye turned his head and looked at the Third Hokage. He saw him calmly stating his proposal, which also gave countless Konoha ninjas hope that the war would stop.
"The truce and peace talks with Kirigakure are matters for the Hokage's advisor. As for returning the Three-Tails... the Tailed Beast is such a powerful weapon, so we must be extremely careful in where we return it.
But if this information is accidentally known to the Cloud Ninja or the Sand Ninja, does it have anything to do with us?"
Uchiha Ye looked meaningful and directly stated his true intentions.
Use the tailed beasts to stir up internal conflicts in other ninja villages.
"Cloud and Sand Ninja!"
After hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto behind her suddenly showed a look of realization on her face, and then her gentle voice under her frown echoed in everyone's ears.
"The so-called alliance between the four major ninja villages is driven by interests. Normally, there is no greater interest, but at this time, under the temptation of the three-tailed beast, the cloud ninja has suffered heavy losses in recent years and has two tailed beasts.
The Kumo Ninja may not take the bait at this time, but the Sand Ninja are different. They suffered the most losses during the Sand Ninja War, and they only have the weakest one-tailed beast. If there is another temptation of a three-tailed beast... I'm sure no one will refuse it."
It has to be said that Uchiha Mikoto could see through the situation, let alone the other ninjas. After hearing this proposal, the other ninjas frowned and pondered over it.
The temptation of the tailed beasts is definitely great enough. If the Three-Tails is taken away by the Sand Ninja, how can the Kirigakure give up?
At that time, it will not be them who are negotiating peace with Kirigakure, but Kirigakure who are negotiating peace with them.
Once a conflict breaks out between the Kirigakure and the Sand Ninjas, how can the battle continue?
The four major ninja villages joined forces to attack Konoha, and two of them started fighting each other, so Konoha was left with only two enemies.
If even the Cloud Ninjas get involved, then the course of this war...
When they thought of this, many people in the conference room became excited. The war had reached this point and no one really wanted to continue fighting.
"That's a good idea!"
"I agree!"
"Third Hokage, it is true that if the Three-Tails were in our Konoha, it would escalate the war..."
For a moment, the wind direction in the conference room changed instantly, and Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was at the top, was both happy and surprised when he heard this proposal.
What excited him was that this plan could indeed instantly solve Konoha's predicament and could really become an opportunity to end the war.
What was surprising was that the Uchiha had such a gloomy mind. All they had thought of before was to use the Three-Tails and the Ninja Sword to negotiate with the Kirigakure, but they hadn't thought of this.
"Hiruzen!"
Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu also showed expressions of fear. They lowered their voices and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen. Fear could be seen in the eyes of the three of them.
Uchiha Ye has a very dark mind. Such a person will only bring disaster to Konoha!
However, the other jonin in the conference room looked at Uchiha Ye in secret shock, while the Hyuga, Nara, Akimichi and other major families secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The fact that Uchiha Ye could see this at least proved one thing, that he was not the arrogant Uchiha who awakened the Mangekyō as they imagined.
This kind of cool-headed Uchiha would not do anything rash even if he really got angry, which was a relief for them.
The jonin of ordinary origin looked at Uchiha Ye with complicated expressions.
If Uchiha Yai represented strength after awakening the Mangekyō before, then today people saw his qualities to be a leader.
A strong man with vision and who wants to end the war is even more lovable.
When Uchiha Ye saw the extremely hidden and fearful looks in the eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two, he thought secretly in his heart that he seemed to have overestimated the other party.
But think about it, Two Peaches Killing Three Warriors is the crystallization of our ancestors' wisdom. Under the transcendent power of this world, it is not even a little bit lacking in this aspect.
Perhaps there are many unscrupulous conspiracies and intrigues in this world, but sometimes things that seem easy are just a blind spot.
Before this layer of window paper was broken, no one thought that so many articles could be written. This is the wisdom of our predecessors.
What secretly shocked the Third Hokage and his two companions was that the only thing they thought of was to immediately order Minato Namikaze to send the Three-Tails to the battlefield in Kirigakure.
What do you mean the Three-Tails was taken away by Konoha? They, Konoha, do not admit it. On the contrary, the Three-Tails appeared in the war zone of Kirigakure and went berserk. Will Kirigakure be willing to let it go?
The momentum of the tailed beasts is so great that it is impossible to hide it, and Kirigakure will have to face the runaway tailed beasts by then.
What they thought of was to fight back with the same means and then propose peace talks.
One is that through the Three-Tails, we only saw Kirigakure, and there are means of counterattack.
The other one stood on the shoulders of his ancestors, looked at the entire ninja world, and directly proposed a plan to end the war by both fighting and defending.
