Konoha I, Uchiha, lie flat!

Chapter 202 Mitokado Homura: Forget it Koharu, we are the scapegoats!

Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, a row of black lines instantly appeared on their foreheads.

They do have opinions, but do they dare to raise them?

So, no doubt.

The two looked at each other immediately, and then shook it like a rattle.

"Ah, very good!"

"It seems that we have reached an agreement, so let's follow this tomorrow.

"I'm very tired now, so I'll go back and rest first."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, smiled and nodded.

Subsequently.

He directly picked up the Hokage hat, put it on his head, and then left the office and headed home.

He needs to rest.

He encountered too many bad things today, and he could be said to be physically and mentally exhausted.

He doesn't want to think about anything now. He just wants to go back and have a cup of tea, and then completely relax and sleep.

It's just a pity.

His wishes were good, but God seemed to be working against him.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to his tea room and was about to make himself a cup of tea and relax for a while, he found that it didn't taste right no matter how he drank it.

Then, he woke up instantly.

My favorite tea set and my favorite new tea jade top were all taken away by that bastard Uchiha Jin.

Paralyzed.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that he smashed the tea cup in his hand.

"U! Chi! Bo! Jhin!"

"Why are you everywhere? Are you going to end it?"

"Even if I pay a huge price, I will definitely kill you bastard completely."

"I'm so angry, go to sleep!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, yelling.

Subsequently.

He was not in the mood for tea anymore, so he got up angrily and went back to sleep.

And, the other side.

Hokage Building.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen has returned, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura cannot simply give up their picks.

after all.

Tomorrow they will sign a peace agreement with Rock Shinobi, and they need to stay up late to settle a lot of things.

Otherwise, tomorrow.

But it was completely too late.

"Yan, you said..." Utatane Koharu couldn't help but say: "Do we really follow what Hiruzen said and don't have to pay Rock Shinobi for any benefits?"

"I'm afraid that if this gets out, the ninjas in our village won't be willing to accept it!"

"After all, in the war with Rock Shinobi, the village sacrificed so many ninjas. If we sign such an agreement, we will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history!"

"Do you think we should discuss it with Hiruzen after he calms down?"

Yes.

Utatane Koharu was very hesitant about this.

As she said, this agreement is a bit too disadvantageous.

If word spread like this, the reputation of these high-level officials in Konoha would fall to the bottom in an instant.

She is also a shameless person!

As an elder of Konoha, she was really reluctant to sign such a humiliating agreement.

But, he is riding a horse.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't listen to anything she said, which gave her a headache.

so.

Looking at her old friend in front of her, she couldn't help but start to complain.

And, the other side.

Mitokado Homura, who was sitting at his desk and busy working on foreshadowing, was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

Then, there was a long sigh.

yes!

How could he not think of things that Utatane Koharu could think of?

Once such a humiliating agreement is signed, the reputation of the entire Konoha hierarchy will directly suffer a cliff-like blow.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, is quite smart.

They had long been prepared to wait until the war was completely over to abdicate and support the puppet Namikaze Minato to take over as the Fourth Hokage.

By the time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation may have lost a bit, but with the move of abdicating the throne and taking into account his previous contributions to the village, most Konoha Village residents should not be too picky.

After all, everyone just abdicated, right?

But, same thing.

For Sarutobi Hiruzen, the acoustic impact has been forgotten.

The real power has not been affected much.

After all, although he no longer works as Hokage, he is still Hokage's assistant!

And he still holds great power, even going to Hokage makes him feel cold.

Except for the lack of the name Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen lacks nothing.

But, what about them?

Sarutobi Hiruzen can take a step back to open up the world, but elders like them can't!

If they abdicate, they will really have no choice but to go back and retire.

This is absolutely impossible for them to endure!

But if he does not abdicate, Sarutobi Hiruzen's trouble will be thrown away again.

what to do?

If you want to protect the power in your hands, you can only be the last person to take the blame, and then be despised by the whole village.

Utatane Koharu's anger, isn't this what it is?

after all.

In fact, they, the elders, don't care much about whether the village can benefit.

Because if they want to get money and resources, the annual allocation from the daimyo is enough for them to make a living!

"Koharu, don't even think about it."

"We will both take the blame this time."

"After all, this is the price we have to pay in order to be in power, isn't it?"

"In the early days, when Sarutobi Hiruzen took over, he needed all-round support from us, but this is no longer the case."

"Don't talk about brotherhood, this thing is simply dispensable to people like us.

"Mirror, can you help Master Hiruzen?"

"But after Hiruzen takes over the Hokage, we won't get rid of him secretly!"

"If the reason for getting rid of the mirror is that he is an Uchiha, what about the Akamichi Feng?"

"Ino-Shika-Chō, but Hokage Japanese style."

"But, what then?"

"Although Tifeng has the title of elder, he can only stay in the family for a long time. How many times have you seen Tifeng come out in these years?"

"He, come out?"

"If he really dares to come out to seize power, I believe he will die inexplicably on a battlefield somewhere.

"Among our group of senior brothers, the only ones who can hold power are the two of us and Danzo."

"And Danzo can fight with Hiruzen, and Hiruzen won't punish Danzo severely. Is it really because of the friendship between senior brothers?"

"No, it's not!"

“It’s because Danzo’s roots are doing evil things for Sarutobi Hiruzen and secretly eliminating all hostile forces.

"But, what about us?"

"The reason why the two of us can become the powerful elders is because our two clans are weak. Apart from the two of us, there are no top-notch strong men in the family?"

"We are in power because we are weak and more easily controlled by Hiruzen."

"Our very existence is the fault of Hiruzen."

"Now we need to take the blame, and if we are not willing, then the value of use will be lost.

"And since we have no use value, Koharu, do you think Hiruzen can accommodate us?"

"So, explained!"

"There's no need to worry so much, just take the blame for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"As long as we can continue to hold the power of the village, continue to bring more benefits to the family, and then train the next generation of the family as much as possible, this is the most important thing for us to do as elders."

"It's just a little bit of fame, if it's gone, it's gone!".
