Konoha's Thief Hand

Chapter 656

The early morning breeze blew across Konoha Village, and people started a new day as usual. The situation of last night seemed to remain last night, and it did not affect the new beginning of the day.

Perhaps only part of the staff at the State Guest House could feel some changes. As for the Uchiha clan’s questions… outsiders didn’t care, and Natsuki, who needed an answer, didn’t care.

Or to be more precise, what he will give is not an answer, but a way to solve the problem.

In a secret room not far from the Hokage building, several Cloud Shinobi were firmly tied up. Faced with the constant voices of questions, they lowered their heads and said nothing, trying to respond with silence.

Seeing this, Hyuga Hiashi stood up and said: “Master Hokage, these Cloud Shinobi schemes no longer need to be asked. In contrast, whether they have other plans or not is what should be focused on at this moment.”

Hearing what he said, Mitokado Homura nodded, looked at Tsunade and said, “Hiashi is reasonable, Hokage-sama.”

Utatane Koharu glanced at him speechlessly, and then said to Tsunade: “No matter what other plans Cloud Shinobi has, adding ninjas to guard the main road and conduct a carpet search will bring everything to the surface. As for these. Guy, since you don’t say anything, just leave it to the interrogation room. Anyway, there is the Yamanaka clan, and there are no secrets that can be kept forever.”

Hearing the name of the Yamanaka clan, the silent Cloud Shinobi was slightly moved, but being able to be entrusted with the important task by Raikage, naturally all have undergone rigorous training, and they then bowed their heads again.

Maybe Konoha could dig out the secrets they kept, but it would never come from their mouths.

They prayed in their hearts that the sealing technique of the brain could resist the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan.

Anbu Ninja took Cloud Shinobi away, and Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn’t help but sigh.

At this time, a few pairs of eyes were already looking at him, Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura, Tsunade, and Natsuki as a bystander.

As for Danzo, although he was notified about this, he didn’t seem to be interested in it.

It’s hard to imagine that when it comes to Uchiha, Danzo, who claims to have inherited the will of Second Generation, will be absent.

If it were at other times, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely think about it deeply based on the old friend’s past style, and guess whether Danzo was hiding anything, but at the moment he really has no such interest.

“The truce agreement between Konoha and Cloud Shinobi is over.” Tsunade looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a nonchalant tone. “Not only did they not have the slightest sincerity, they also did this kind of thing in Konoha. Cloud Shinobi must pay anyway. cost!”

“Tsunade!” Utatane Koharu immediately scolded, “This is not what you should say. As Hokage, your duty is to protect the village and people, not to incite hatred and start war!”

“What Cloud Shinobi does will inevitably have a proper way to resolve it, but if conflicts and conflicts grow and spread, the Ninja World that has been calm for a few years may reignite the flames of war. Yeah, it’s harmful and useless.” Mitokado Homura persuaded softly.

Hearing these words, Hyuga Hiashi hurriedly interjected: “Master Hokage, Cloud Shinobi’s behavior can no longer be said to be provocative, but a real violation of Konoha’s safety. Just imagine that Cloud Shinobi dared to steal Konoha’s blood. If there are no more radicals, it may not be impossible to assassinate!”

Hearing this, Natsuki, who was on the sidelines, looked at Hyuga Hiashi with interest with his slightly narrowed eyes, and said in his heart: As the leader of the clan, he looked like he was crushing everything on him last night. At this moment, he is already fighting for the initiative. Right now.

“Don’t be alarmist!” Hearing Hyuga Hiashi’s words, Utatane Koharu frowned and reprimanded: “Do you want Konoha to endure the pressing experience of the previous war? Don’t forget the price the Hyuga family paid in the previous war!”

The biggest price that the Hyuga clan paid during the war was a Byakugan of the clan family. It was the only Byakugan that the Hyuga clan had outflowed since ancient times. It is a shame that will be remembered in history books.

Utatane Koharu mentioned this shame as if it was unhealed scars, which not only caused Hyuga Hiashi’s pain, but also became unstoppably angry.

But at this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen pressed his shoulder.

“Hiashi, you go back first.” Sarutobi Hiruzen patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t tell the story of what happened last night. The village will give Hyuga an answer.”

Hearing these words, Xia Shu raised her eyebrows.

Just like Uchiha is waiting for him to give an answer, Hyuga Hiashi can only wait for Sarutobi Hiruzen to give him an answer.

“Yes, Third Generation.” Hyuga Hiashi said helplessly.

“There is no need to stay here anymore, let’s talk about anything in the meeting room.” Tsunade waved his hand in annoyance, and left the place right away.

“Indeed.” Mitokado Homura nodded in response.

Xia Shu followed the back of the two advisor elders, and at this moment Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly stopped him.

“Wait a minute, Natsuki.” Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the stopped young man and smiled kindly: “Let’s go with me, an old man.”

“Yeah.” Natsuki shrugged, and walked to the Hokage building not far away with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

“Have you seen Danzo recently? What is he doing?” Sarutobi Hiruzen asked in a casual tone of chat.

“I’ve been busy recently. When I went to see Lord Danzo, he was practicing the tea ceremony.” Natsuki said with a smile, “The taste is not bad, it is Konoha first.”

“He claims Konoha is number one, right?” Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled.

Xia Shu also smiled.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with emotion: “Danzo was the most powerful of us at the time. Whether it was ninjutsu or anything else, he was strong, decisive, brave, and responsible, but no one would have thought that he would die alone. ”

“Haha.” Hearing this, Xia Shu smiled awkwardly, thinking that maybe Third Generation was really just sighing, and there was no other deep meaning such as temptation.

Listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen’s words, he confirmed this more and more, and when he finished speaking, he said in a respectful tone: “Master Danzo has dedicated his life for the village.”

“Yes.” Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed. “As he always said, Konoha, a lush tree bathed in sunlight, needs his deep underground root to bear the darkness. He has done a good job now. It’s your turn, Xia Shu.”

Xia Shu’s eyes flickered when he heard this, and wondered if Sarutobi Hiruzen was really pointing at him?

“I can’t do it on par with Master Danzo.” He said modestly.

“Don’t belittle yourself, Natsuki.” Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head. “You didn’t do worse than Danzo last night.”
