Chapter 37 Jonin Meeting

After Kumogakure and Konoha shook hands and made peace, only Kirigakure was left in the ninja world still entangled with Konoha.

Not long ago, one of Konoha's 10,000-year-old genin, Matt Dai, suddenly exploded on the battlefield.

One man not only blocked Kirigakure's seven ninja swordsmen, but also killed four of them on the spot, and the remaining three were seriously injured and escaped!

It can be said that this battle shocked the entire ninja world and completely wiped out the shock caused by the root department.

Although the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are the first generation, they have been formed for a long time. The second generation Mizukage has been deliberately cultivating the Ninja Swordsmen during his time.

As a result, the reputation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen has already spread, especially those legendary Ninja Swordsmen with their own characteristics.

The result was a group of people called Mist Ninja Monsters, but more than half of them were destroyed by a Konoha Ten Thousand Year Genin in just one battle.

It's shocking, but also a little scary at the same time.

How many such genin are there in Konoha?

Fortunately, after the Konoha genin defeated the seven ninja swordsmen, he himself died of exhaustion, allowing the Kirigakure village to breathe a little.

But by this time, Kirigakure Village was actually in dire straits.

Originally, it was not as good as Konoha in all aspects, and the village still had a lot of troubles to deal with.

As a result, four of the seven ninja swordsmen, who were the only ones capable of wielding them, were crushed to pieces by a Konoha genin.

The strategic ally Kumogakure Village has entered into peace talks with Konoha in advance, which makes Kirigakure Village a bit Muggle-like.

I gritted my teeth and held on for another half month, but finally I couldn't hold on any longer, so I chose to withdraw from the front and slipped away without saying a word.

Konoha couldn't catch up yet because the boat couldn't move.

I could only watch helplessly as the Kirigakure ninjas from the Kingdom of Water left one by one.

At this point, the Third Ninja War finally came to an end.

The five major countries began to close their doors silently and lick their wounds.

…

Konoha Ninja Village held a Jonin meeting today.

The topic of the discussion was to nominate candidates for the fourth generation of Hokage.

Before the war, there were nearly four hundred jounin in Konoha Village. However, after a whole ninja war, the number of jounin dropped sharply to less than two hundred.

Among them, there are dozens of jounin who are disabled and retired, so that at this stage, there are only a hundred or so jounin left in Konoha. This shows how tragic the situation is.

More than half of the most elite jounin troops were lost, and there were countless chuunin and genin victims on the battlefield.

It can even be said that every family wears mourning cloth, and those with white hair send gifts to those with black hair.

Under such circumstances, Sarutobi Hiruzen's life was naturally not easy.

Shortly after the war ended, Hiruzen Sarutobi took the initiative to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy, and announced that he had officially begun to elect a new fourth generation to take over.

The election of the Hokage is of course not decided by a single vote of the villagers, but depends on the top.

On the one hand, the daimyo of the Fire Country holds the power of decision-making, and on the other hand, the jounin, elders, and advisors in the village hold the power of recommendation.

The village decides on the candidates, and the daimyo selects a suitable candidate from the list of candidates to serve as Hokage.

…

A total of ninety-seven Konoha jonins came to this jounin meeting.

There were more than 40 people who were absent for various reasons, or entrusted friends or family members to vote on their behalf, or because family power was concentrated together.

In the huge conference room, nearly a hundred Konoha jounin sat in a circle.

Deer Man wears a mask at the base and enters the venue with Danzo.

Danzo's aura as a boss is still very strong, especially since there has been such a big hot spot recently and his reputation has spread widely.

As soon as they entered the conference room, the noisy discussions in the entire conference room suddenly became quiet.

Including Danzo and Shikato, a total of six Jonin were present.

There is no way, the roots were established late, most of them are still in the training period, and they are still a bit young.

However, there were originally about ten people, but after the war, four people were lost.

Although it is not a true step into the frontline battlefield, the espionage and assassination missions behind the scenes are equally dangerous.

Danzo took the lead and sat at the elders' table, with the root members lined up beside him.

After sitting down, Danzo turned his head and looked at Shikato, who stood up again: "Where are you going?"

Shikato: "Danzo-sama, I'll sit down with my brother and help you get votes."

Danzo glanced at him and didn't answer, so he acquiesced.

The seats present have been basically divided.

The jounin huddled together to keep warm, each sitting next to or not far from the candidate they supported.

However, there are also many Jonin who remain neutral. The Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan are the most obvious examples. People from the two clans gather together.

They not only remain neutral, but also have their own little thoughts.

The deer man passed through the crowd and came to the seats of the three families of Zhu, Lu and Die.

The three families sat together around Minato Namikaze and his wife.

I noticed a root person walking over, and I was more or less curious.

"Hey, long time no see, bro."

The deer man raised his hand and said hello.

Nara Shikaku made a seat for him, "I knew it was you, Danzo-sama, was he willing to let you come over?"

"Ah, Danzo, he is quite easy to talk to."

"You're probably the only one who describes him that way."

After Shikato sat down, Akimichi Choza and Yamanaka Haiichi who were beside him were also acquaintances and said hello to him.

Namikaze Minato, who was in the middle, also turned around and said, "Long time no see, Shikato."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The deer man nodded to him, and then asked: "How is it, senior, are you confident?"

Namikaze Minato scratched his head: "Confidence, this kind of thing is quite troublesome, I can only try my best to strive for it.

As for you, is it really okay to sit here? Danzo seems to be watching you all the time."

Shikato looked up, Danzo was indeed staring here, especially when he was talking to Minato, he stared even more closely.

So the deer man raised his hand and gestured V.

Danzo closed his eyes with a dark face: "..."

Phew~hahaha!

On the side, Kushina couldn't help laughing, and she greeted Shikato through the Minato: "You are Shikaku's younger brother, this is the first time we meet, I am Uzumaki Kushina.

He's just so awesome, he even dares to tease Danzo, obviously I'm quite scared every time I see him."

Namikaze Minato glanced at his wife: "It's time for you to change your title."

Namikaze Kushina sounds so good.

Kushina waved her fiery red ponytail, "Oh, it's been more than twenty years, you're used to it."

Namikaze Minato smiled lovingly at her.

Deer Man: "I'd better go back."

Shikaku: "What's wrong?"

"Someone here is handing out dog food, so I'm full."

"...Be more serious, Deer Man..."

While chatting, the third generation Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, came in with his two friends, Koharu and Mito Monobu.

The Konoha Jonin present all stood up in an instant.

You still have to show respect to the Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved for everyone to sit down, and then he also took a seat, sitting next to Danzo: "Gen really helped a lot this time."

Danzo snorted: "Sarutobi, Konoha is not yours alone. I am also the village elder after all."

Sarutobi nodded happily: "Yes, I know. You have been putting a lot of effort into this. Thank you for your hard work."

Danzo was a little unaccustomed to Sarutobi's sudden tone of relief. The two of them usually said three or two words to each other, and finally added that you will regret it, and then slammed the door and left. This was the correct rhythm.

What happened to Sarutobi today?

Danzo frowned and fell silent.

Sarutobi sincerely thanked his old friend. This time he forced Kumogakure to withdraw from the war in advance, which really helped him a lot.
