From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 110 Deadline (1w)

Hokage Building, large conference room on the third floor.

The clan leaders of various tribes, who had received a series of emergency notices in the middle of the night, entered the venue one after another.

As soon as they walked in, they were stunned by the scene in front of them, and their expressions were heavy.

Less than ten minutes after the notice was issued, more than half of the clan leaders and well-known jonin of the village had already arrived at the meeting place. No one was aware of the situation. Those who might have guessed the inside story had heavy expressions and sat there silently, observing the whispered conversations of the people around them.

The remaining people are either temporarily unavailable or are most likely on the front line.

At the same time, since the war on the front line of the Land of Wind had just ended not long ago, many ninjas had just returned from the front line. The only one that was still in a state of continuous war was the Hidden Cloud Village. Most people even thought that the protracted Second Ninja World War was about to end, and they unconsciously relaxed. But now, suddenly this happened again, and everyone had an inexplicable bad premonition.

Just as everyone in the conference room was chattering in low voices, the current head of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Munenobu, walked in from the door with a stern face.

Seeing that it was him, many people took the opportunity to greet him and tentatively asked him some small questions.

However, Hyuga Munenobu seemed to really know something. Even when faced with inquiries from several of the friendliest ninja clan leaders, he remained silent. After finding his seat, he sat down quietly with a gloomy face.

It wasn't just him. When clan leader Uchiha Motoya and several clan leaders of the Ino-Shika-Cho clan entered the room, they all had similar expressions, as if they had encountered some difficulties.

After seeing that they all had the same expression, the patriarchs of each ninja clan had a general idea in their minds, and the noise in the conference room gradually subsided until no one spoke anymore.

Something big happened indeed.

Everyone was waiting for someone to come out and inform them of the result they guessed.

"Clang."

as predicted.

When the door was pushed open, everyone saw the three Hokage advisors who were supposed to follow the Third Hokage first walked in, all with gloomy faces as if they had encountered some difficulties.

Among them, Mizuto Menen's complexion was the darkest, especially the circles around his eyes, which were so dark that they even looked a little purple.

Following behind them were the three most famous ninjas in the village today, as well as a group of less familiar young ninjas.

"Oh?"

However, among the young men who were supposed to be hardcore Hokage supporters, Hyuga Munenobu spotted a somewhat familiar figure.

"That's Sahara-kun, right?"

"Oh, Master Zong Xin also remembers it?"

"That's natural."

"Haha."

The clan leader Uchiha Motoya beside him laughed softly twice, with an inexplicably proud expression on his face.

Now, the deeds of Sawara Kiri in the battlefield of Wind Country gradually began to spread to the village. Even many ordinary civilians learned that a very powerful young Konoha ninja had defeated the Sand Village Jinchuriki who was regarded as the village's treasure in a head-on confrontation.

As the chief of the great ninja clan, Uchiha Motoya naturally knew more about similar news.

For example, not long after entering the battlefield, this guy killed the rising star of the Sand Village, 'Golden Sand' Rasa, and the 'Puppet Modeler' Monzaemon;
For example, the Jinchūriki that Sawara Kiri defeated was a perfect Jinchūriki, rare in the entire ninja world. He had been working with the One-Tail Shukaku for decades.

Although Fūfuku had rarely fought in the war, they had seen the power that a perfect Jinchūriki could unleash.

Of course, none of this matters to him.

The most important thing is that this extremely powerful young man has a very good relationship with the children in his own family. People often see him and Yayoi going to the grove alone during the breaks in the war, and no one knows what shameful things they are doing.

It’s even better now. It seems that the kid Sahara Kiri is getting back together with Tsunade - he should be spotted by the Hokage and they’re planning to take him in as a disciple, right?

Naruto series → Sahara Kiri → Uchiha clan!
Isn't it connected now?
Ever since Uchiha Kagami died, Uchiha Motoya had been worrying for a long time about how to renew the relationship. Now he finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had drunk a big bowl of sour plum soup in the coldest days of winter.

What is business? This is business!

Yayoi, you did a great job, Yayoi!

It would be even better if that old man Sarutobi Hiruzen died now and let Tsunade take over directly!

Aren’t the good days coming?
Uchiha Motoya smiled smugly in his heart, but he only said so much, which made Hinata Munenobu next to him look puzzled.

Of course, it is definitely inappropriate to laugh out loud in this situation.

Uchiha Yuanya thought about it, restrained his emotions slightly, and tried his best to look as solemn as possible.

After the meeting room was quiet for a while, Mito Menen, as the chairman, raised his head, looked at the many senior ninjas in front of him, and began to report on this emergency meeting.

He first briefly described the surprise attack that Sarutobi Hiruzen encountered on the battlefield, and then talked about the process of "both sides suffered losses" between him and the Third Raikage, and finally came to the key question:

".After this fierce battle, the Third Hokage felt a little unwell and temporarily entered the Konoha Hospital for long-term recuperation."

"Due to a variety of reasons, and the fact that the war has not yet ended, the Hokage Advisory Council has voted unanimously and has made a preliminary decision to order Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya to form a village wartime administrative agreement team to take charge of the current Hokage's duties."

"Regarding this proposal, we will now solicit opinions from all the jonin in the village, and hold a jonin meeting to vote."

Almost at the moment when these words fell, the entire conference hall was suddenly filled with an uproar like the tide, and all those who were unaware of the situation turned their eyes to the people on the stage.

What does 'The Third Hokage is feeling a little unwell' mean?
Could it be that after fighting with the Third Raikage, he accidentally caught a cold on his way back to the village?
We are all thousand-year-old foxes, and we all know each other.

You said it in the mission details report, the Third Raikage, that monster who was already ridiculously strong, gave himself the label of Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, so after this battle, how can that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen be in any good shape?
You are all jonin in the village, very experienced, and have seen the Thunder Blade and Lightning Release Chakra mode of the Hidden Cloud Village.

After this round of fighting, the Third Hokage was so injured that he couldn't even come out to see people. If his current situation was not kept secret, he must have been at least seriously injured and half dead - Sarutobi Hiruzen might have been hung on the tree by the skin of his buttocks.

However, the "whole bank group" they mentioned later perked up many people present, as if they had discovered a new world, and they looked at the three people on the stage with burning eyes.

All the jonin began to think about how they and their families could gain the greatest benefits in this round of craze before the end of the war.

At the same time, although it is not very obvious.

However, many people's eyes gradually turned to the group of young ninjas who had followed the three ninjas early on - especially the young man among them who had just become famous some time ago.

At some point, a small label with the words 'Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Frontline against the Land of Lightning' was placed on the desk in front of Sawara Kiri.

Many people have sensed something different in this seemingly insignificant line of text.

However, when these upper-class people raised their heads and met Sawara Kiri's blue eyes, they would receive a gentle and polite smile from the boy who still had a bit of childishness on his face. His sunny and gentle appearance showed that he was a good child with a good temper, honest and polite.

We may get in touch when there is a chance.

On the contrary, the three ninjas on the stage, although they had obviously achieved huge improvements, all had stern faces, as if their teacher had died.

Konoha, things are going to change.

After the meeting was over, many jonin left one after another. Many of them had complicated looks on their faces, as if they were thinking deeply about something.

Among these people, the ones who slipped away the fastest were the few Shadow Guard members who had just listened to the "confrontation" between the advisory group and the three ninjas in the small conference room.

Among them, Daisuke Namikawa was almost jogging in front.

Oh my god, that meeting among the upper echelons was so scary.

Let’s not talk about the three ninjas for now.

That young man named Sahara Kiri, who looks quite shy, actually dared to grab the collar of the Hokage's advisor and curse at him?

Almost at the moment he walked out of the Hokage building, Daisuke Namikawa made up his mind - no matter who asked him, he couldn't mention a single word about what happened today!

After the meeting.

The entire Konoha Village began to operate at the fastest speed, and all organizational relationships that originally belonged to the Hokage were reallocated to the three people in the "full group".

Politics, economics, military.

The power to propose, supervise and make final decisions on various matters, as well as the numerous individuals and forces behind these powers, have also begun a major reshuffle off the stage.

No organization can be completely changed by killing one or two people or changing one or two positions. As long as the goal is not to destroy but to build, then you have to be patient with those unclean guys and slowly discuss and solve the problem within the scope of the rules.

If they want to completely change Konoha, the Sannin still have a long way to go.

However, this has nothing to do with the current Sawara Kiri.

Although he has now been recognized within the entire Jonin Conference and has independently killed the Sand Village Jinchuriki, becoming a new generation of star ninja known throughout Konoha.

However, all this only proves his ability in war, and does not mean that he can rightfully hold power.

When Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke were sixteen years old, they had already killed Uchiha Madara and even Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, saved 100,000 ninja soldiers, and became heroes who saved the entire ninja world. When they walked on the street, people would ask them for autographs everywhere. Even Uchiha Sasuke's crimes such as attacking the Five Kage Council, killing Danzo Shimura personally, and attacking the Fourth Raikage could be redeemed.

However, the Sixth Hokage was still ranked according to the seniority system, so the two of them could only continue to take the position after Hatake Kakashi had served as the Sixth Hokage for more than ten years.

This was of course due to the voluntary participation of Uzumaki Naruto and others, but there was also suppression and promotion from the old forces.

Even after Naruto came to power, the two Hokage advisors, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, were still in office and worked until they were over 90 years old.

All the intricacies here are things that cannot be told to outsiders.

But it is what it is.

As long as Sawara Kiri wants to take over a complete and prosperous Konoha Village and wants a stable and orderly environment, he must abide by some established rules - not just him, but even the once invincible Senju Hashirama is the same.

Pretending to obey while secretly disobeying is not just a tactic used by civil servants.

"It's been hard work, Lady Tsunade."

Sawara Kiri was thinking about what was going to happen next, and he sighed softly, "I guess I'll be busy until very late today, right?"

Just when he was feeling rather gloating, a masked man suddenly bumped into him from the crowd in front of him.

When Sawara Kiri subconsciously dodged, he found a thin piece of paper in his sleeve.

It seemed to be stained with a little moisture.

He turned his head and glanced in the direction of the crowd.

The figure wandered around in the alleys and soon disappeared.

The people around seemed to have noticed nothing and continued to walk slowly forward, as if it was just a common little episode on the road.

Sawara Kiri's eyes seemed to dim a little.

When he found a secluded corner, he flipped over the note and took a look. Then he seemed to suddenly realize something and raised his brows slightly.

The handwriting on the note is clear.

"After three days, abandon all missions and return to the village to report on your duties."

At the very end of the note, it was written in clearly emphasized handwriting:

"Deadline."

In the shadow of the dimly lit street, Sawara Kiri's blue eyes were full of deep gaze.

Looking at the arrogant tone and the deep meaning behind it, the corners of his mouth seemed to twitch inadvertently, revealing a smile that was quite sighing.

"Really."

"Almost forgot about these bugs."

Now that he thinks about it, it seems like it's time for him to clean up his background a little bit.

Sawara Kiri thought to himself and turned around silently.

At the entrance of the alley, in a blind spot that no one noticed, his figure disappeared silently.

next moment.

Several figures dressed in dark uniforms suddenly passed over the roof.

　Second update.
