Chapter 493 Aftermath
The Konoha collapse plan has ended.
The sand ninja and sound ninja were completely defeated.
Shayin Village also surrendered unconditionally and was forced to sign an alliance under the city.
But fortunately, Konoha also needs to cultivate and recuperate now, and also needs the help of allies, so the lion does not ask for much compensation immediately, but looks far ahead and signs some long-term benefit regulations.
The Fourth Kazekage signed everything without any objection.
The reason why he signed so readily was almost a traitor.
The main reason is not that Konoha saved him, nor that Konoha spared the remaining sand ninjas, but simply because of the terrifying strength Konoha showed!
At present, it is the best ending for Shayin Village. What else is he dissatisfied with?
The large-scale battle that broke out directly in the village was even more destructive than the original Kyuubi attack.
That time with the help of Xu Yue, Konoha's losses were not that big. But this time, also under the influence of Xu Yue, Konoha's early all-out battle with the reincarnations was even better than in the original work. The impact on the village is even greater!
There are collapsed houses and broken walls and eaves everywhere.
The residents of Konoha, who had been at peace for a long time, were at a loss after the war and could only busyly follow the instructions to rebuild their homes.
The top management of Konoha also held an emergency temporary meeting at this time.
Ninja clan chiefs such as the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kaden, Koharu Koharu, Shimura Danzo, Jiraiya, Zhang Zuolin, Xu Yue and Hinata Hizatsu gathered together.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who looked weak and old, covered his chest and coughed dryly for a while before regaining his composure and spoke.
"Although Consultant Yue pulled me back, I'm afraid I won't be able to exercise strenuously anymore after suffering such an injury at my age."
After Sarutobi said this, he breathed heavily twice again, seemingly out of breath.
His age has already been shown here, and he was severely overdrawn during the battle, and was even penetrated through the chest. Being able to be rescued was already extremely powerful, and naturally left behind sequelae.
After hearing what Sarutobi said, most people present felt a sense of heaviness and sadness.
No matter what, the Third Hokage's reign and the orderly management of the entire village were seen. This time, it was because of Konoha that he was so seriously injured.
Only Danzo Shimura's single eye showed some excitement.
He probably guessed what Sarutobi was about to say. This was about to be the moment he was most looking forward to. Thinking of this, he did not forget to nod in the direction of Xu Yue, who was wearing a mask, and Xu Yue also wore a mask. Mask nodded in response.
After receiving the response, Danzo Shimura felt more stable.
It’s hard to remove my own blindfold, so it’s best to use uninjured photos of my youth as a reference for the statue. I heard that the youngest son of the Fire Country’s daimyo has an excellent sculptor, and he should ask for it if he gets the chance. I will give myself this face...
Sure enough, Sarutobi said what moved him the most next.
"In view of this situation, I am afraid that the position of Hokage is no longer suitable for me. Now let's gather everyone together to discuss the candidates for the Fifth Hokage. When the time comes, we will submit it to the daimyo to complete the replacement."
"I think Consultant Yue is a good choice, both in terms of strength and age."
Jiraiya was the first to express his opinion, but no matter how you look at it, he seems to want to pass the blame.
As for Xu Yue's identity, even many of the ninja clan leaders present were not sure!
The affairs of the Uchiha clan are of great importance, that is, Hyuga and Hizashi are fully aware of the special aspects of the Hyuga family.
But the person who initiated the recommendation was Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and he must have had his reasons.
"I agree with this. As for the solution to the problem of Yue Consultant's identity, I think the old man and I can still use some of my spare energy to shoulder the responsibility alone."
Sarutobi obviously agreed with Jiraiya's proposal and directly stood up to endorse it.
He had concerns before,
They were afraid of affecting Konoha, but this time Konoha suffered such a major trauma, they simply took this opportunity to rise from the ashes.
The third generation's statement even surprised some ninja clan leaders who didn't know the truth.
"I object! That matter is of great importance and must not be so hasty!"
Unable to bear it at all, Danzo Shimura jumped out to object, and the thing he was talking about was definitely not referring to the position of Hokage, but the genocide of the Uchiha clan.
"I also agree with what Elder Danzo said. In addition, I recommend Elder Danzo to become Hokage. Not only does he have qualifications, strength, and rich experience, he will definitely become a good Hokage."
Xu Yue himself followed closely and slowly.
Originally, it would have been okay to take the Hokage's position conveniently, but since the space left a pitiful task for him, he could wait a little longer.
Compared to the Hokage's position, there is no doubt that he must find a way to complete the mission in this space first, but it is a pity that he has to come in next time to complete the subsequent activation, so he is not in a hurry.
After hearing that Xu Yue had indeed stood up to support him, Danzo was a little excited.
As long as this biggest enemy is dealt with...
"I object!"
"be opposed to!"
"Danzo is very old."
"Elder Danzo also suffered from old wounds."
"The fifth generation still has to be selected from the younger generation."
But as soon as Xu Yue's proposal was put forward, it was immediately met with rebuttal.
None of the ninja clan leaders agreed to Danzo's appointment.
It has to be said that when Danzo was in charge of the Roots, he did completely sacrifice his reputation. He specialized in doing shady things and could easily arouse people's jealousy and hatred.
Even Danzo himself did not expect that he would suddenly encounter so much opposition.
I have worked hard and diligently for Konoha for decades, and you treat me like this?
Are there still laws or laws?
If there were one or two families, they could still think of ways to retaliate, but now they are almost all opposed to it.
What have I done? Why do you do this to me?
As for old? I have the first-generation cells, so I haven’t lost much in combat power!
As for the old injuries, the string of eyeballs I saw when I took off the bandage can scare you to death. I have become stronger!
It's a pity that he can only roar in his heart for these rebuttals, neither the first-generation cells nor the Sharingan can see the light of day.
Especially for these ninjas.
Stealing other clan's secret techniques and blood inheritance is the most unbearable thing for the ninja clan.
Danzo was almost going crazy with this suffocating feeling that he couldn't exhale.
But even Uchiha Yue had already opened his mouth to support his rejection, and he could no longer find anyone else who could speak out at this meeting.
He had planned it all. If there was no opposition from the ninja clan, the other old guys might have accepted him. But with such fierce opposition from the ninja clan, those old cunning people would definitely not speak again!
Damn it, this is the best opportunity!
Why did you call all the ninja clan leaders here...
Mito Kado and Koharu looked at each other and nodded. The previous proposals had been rejected, so it was only the two of them who made the final decision, which would also increase their prestige.
"I recommend Jiraiya."
"Me too."
But as soon as the two people proposed it, Jiraiya immediately shook his head and rejected it.
"I can't. My personality is not suitable for becoming Hokage, but I think there is someone else who will be fine."
After Jiraiya said it, everyone else nodded thoughtfully. Yes, the reputation of the Senju clan can completely suppress the opposition.
It is indeed the most suitable time to become a spiritual leader now.
But what about her...
"I can find her."
Feeling that he would be chased ashore if he didn't speak, Jiraiya still showed his 'enlightenment'.
"Okay, as long as you can bring Tsunade back and successfully convince her to become Hokage, I have no problem, but if you can't, you have to become Hokage."
"Seconded."
"agree."
"Seconded."
"No comment."
After making compromises in all aspects, we still followed the expected trajectory...
"You're so spicy, I can actually be Hokage."
Zhang Zuolin sat depressed and cursed in his heart, but it was a pity that the mother-in-law above his head had spoken, so what else could he do.
I am also desperate...
