Konoha: Start with omniscience and omnipotence
Chapter 22 [022] Community of interests
Chapter 22 [022] Community of Interests
A few days later.
Hokage building, conference room.
Dozens of ninja family heads, jounin class members, and elders council members gathered together and sat in a circle around the long table.
The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn and you could hear a needle drop.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a round figure and sharp eyes slapped his big hand on the table and yelled:
"A Yan! You must give us an explanation for this matter."
"No matter what, it's too much."
"Does it mean that as an elder, you can do this?"
The middle-aged man's name is Akimichi Tifeng, and he used to be a second-generation disciple with Sarutobi Hiruzen and others.
However, after his brother died in the Second Ninja War, Akimichi Tofou, who was also an elder of Konoha, had to resign from this position and return to the clan as the clan leader.
Akimichi Teiza is his nephew.
However, in the process of his retirement from the elder position, there were actually some other people who exerted some influence.
At this time, facing his former best friend, Qiudao Qifeng spoke rudely and cursed: "This kid has spent so much effort to come up with a good thing, and you just return it to the village with just one sentence?"
"Research that is beneficial to people's livelihood only has a research title? Isn't that insulting?"
"Do you know how delicious that fish meat is?"
There was a hint of sadness in the dissatisfied voice.
And when he started like this, many people around the long table also sneered and ridiculed, talking non-stop.
"Some people are accustomed to eating alone and don't want others to get a share of the pie."
The old patriarch of the Hyuga family put his hands in his sleeves and spoke coldly.
"Ha, as expected of Tobirama's disciple."
"In terms of being hopeless, you guys are pretty much in agreement."
Sitting opposite the Hyuga clan leader is the current Uchiha clan clan leader. He is an old man who has taken over the clan since Uchiha Madara left. He is the senior one among the people present.
With just one sentence, he scolded all the elders including the Hokage.
Unfortunately, no one can talk back.
"Indeed, the remuneration does not match the labor, which is not what it should be."
The leader of the Moonlight clan is a serious and old-fashioned middle-aged man, who nodded in approval.
Some of the ninja clan leaders who were a little confused saw the two largest ninja clans in Konoha taking the lead. Even though they were intimidated by the majesty of the Sandaime Hokage, many people spoke out, and most of them spoke neither salty nor cool.
The entire conference room showed a one-sided public opinion trend.
It is now the 39th year of Konoha. There are too many elders of the previous generation of ninja who have not died yet. They are far greater than the Hokage line in terms of seniority and achievements. Many of them have defeated the world with the first generation.
Even if the Sandaime has secured his position and will not be overthrown by the united ninja clan, he is still far from being able to stick to his word like later generations.
Not to mention claiming to be the 'strongest Hokage'.
That would really make other elderly people laugh their teeth out.
Even if occasionally some respected elders pointed at his nose and cursed, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to stay close to him.
Let alone an elder.
Mito Monoyan was sitting in his seat, his face turning blue and white.
He doesn't understand.
It was such a small matter, why did it suddenly become such a big deal?
How did these people get together inexplicably?
You know, when people from different families meet each other occasionally, they can't help but fight and curse a few times.
What's going on now?
Danzo Shimura also watched the scene in front of him silently, with a cold expression.
Inadvertently, he suddenly glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was as steady as a rock beside him.
He remembered what Hiruzen said to him a few days ago.
'Everyone is watching.'
As a member of the Jonin class, Orochimaru, who was sitting next to Hatake Sakumo, had no interest in this boring meeting.
But when someone suddenly mentioned this matter, a faint light of surprise appeared in those golden eyes.
Only Sakumo Hatake, the leader of the Jonin class, sat aside, squinting his eyes slightly, waiting for the meeting to end as if he hadn't heard anything.
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, remained silent, quietly waiting for everyone on the conference table to make loud noises. His eyes swept over the faces of each Jonin without even a trace of emotion rising on his face.
It wasn't until the sound of the crusade gradually faded that I heard him say in a deep voice:
"What kind of behavior do you have?"
With just one sound, all the sounds that had started to decay were suppressed.
The majestic cornerstone created by going through two ninja wars and leading Konoha to victory was vividly reflected in this moment.
If the forty-six-year-old Hiruzen Sarutobi was really a good and easy-to-handle person, he would have been eaten up by everyone present at the moment when he succeeded him as the third generation, and not even a single bone would be left.
The reason why he can still sit here firmly is because of the hundreds and thousands of human lives in his hands.
Some of them are enemies, and some are our own people.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who lived in Konoha for 39 years, was still the decisive and ruthless Konoha ‘Ninjao’ who led everyone to victory.
Rather than some formal, kind and kind 'Doctor of the Ninja World'.
He, Sarutobi Hiruzen, could afford it.
"The Hokage Building is not for you to quarrel with."
“Ask a question, explain your request, and then solve it.”
"Like a ninja!"
"Whoever is responsible shall bear it. As long as I am here, no one can escape."
"So, what's there to fuss about?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was calm, and his usually kind and kind eyes were now as sharp as knives, piercing across everyone's faces.
Only Mito Monohan, who was sitting next to him, had a dull expression.
The conference table suddenly fell into silence.
"...Then let's solve it."
However, the atmosphere had been silent for less than a few seconds before the oldest Uchiha clan leader spoke in a lazy voice.
With this little scene, who are you, a junior, trying to scare?
As he spoke, he pushed a contract that had already been concluded on the table:
"Here, take it and take a look."
"Elder Mitomon is so powerful that he wants to take away so many projects invested by the family in just one sentence?"
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and had an ominous premonition in his heart.
The next second, on this long table, there were more than a dozen family heads pushing a standard contract onto the table at the same time.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyebrows couldn't help but narrow slightly.
Community of interests?
Mito Monoyan couldn't sit still anymore. He took out a contract and subconsciously read the words on it:
"Xiang, Aida Fisheries Co., Ltd."
"Investment contract?"
"What does share mean?"
The Uchiha clan leader's voice was sarcastic. Although he looked very old, his logic was very clear:
"Isn't it difficult to understand? Even an outdated old man like me can understand it."
"That boy from the Aida family has a very promising trading company based on chakra fisheries, so we all invest together and divide the shares according to percentages."
"Including the Uchiha family, Akimichi family, Hinata, Kurama, and Moonlight. There are fourteen families in total. The initial investment budget totals twelve million taels, which is used for renting venues, experimental research, etc."
At the end of the sentence, the Uchiha clan leader suddenly sneered:
"Mitomon-sama, are you going to take away all the business worth twelve million taels with just one sentence?"
"It's not appropriate."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kaden, Shimura Danzo, and even the surrounding leaders of the small ninja clan who had just followed the trend and waved flags and shouted were all stunned.
Why didn't anyone notify me about this?
Orochimaru's eyes lit up with astonishing light.
He saw a brand new way of cooperation based on interests.
However, when Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the expressionless clan leaders in front of him, a thick gloom could not help but rise in his eyes.
"impossible!"
Mito Monoyan frowned: "Aida Masaki never said such a thing at that time."
"What do you think those children were doing when they went to Lake Torii?"
The Hyuga clan leader's voice became even colder, and there was no emotion at all in his snow-white pupils.
"But."
"Enough!"
Mito Katoyan was still a little anxious to say something more, but was interrupted by Sarutobi Hiruzen's flat voice.
The Third Hokage took the contract and calmly read it over, and said calmly:
"This is because Elder Mito Kadeni, the manager of the Finance Department, has deprived the important research results of Konoha Special Jounin Aida Masaki for no reason and harmed the property interests of all clans in the village,"
"He is now dismissed from his post and temporarily replaced as the deputy manager of the Konoha Anbu Training Division."
When it came time to make decisions and sacrifices, Sarutobi Hiruzen was more decisive than anyone else.
Hearing this, Mito Monoyan was stunned.
No more words were spoken.
Greed kills people.
However, Shimura Danzo, who had looked calm just now, instead looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a confused expression.
That guy Yan did something wrong, why the hell did you give me my power?
Konoha Anbu Training Base, also known as Roots.
Upon hearing this result, many people at the table nodded slightly, thinking that this punishment was relatively appropriate.
"Oh."
The Uchiha clan leader took advantage of his age and chuckled unceremoniously.
However, there was no more substantive speech.
Unlike his indecisive successor, the old patriarch, who had been scheming with Tobirama and the others since the establishment of Konoha Village, knew exactly how to advance and retreat.
However, just as the last command was completed, Hiruzen Sarutobi continued:
"Because the Finance Department is so busy that there is no vacancy, I hereby order the leader of the Akimichi Clan, Akimichi Tofeng, to return to his post and be responsible for all matters of the Finance Department without any mistakes."
The clan leaders who had nodded just now had expressions on their faces.
Akimichi Tofeng, who was busy taking the contract into his arms, was also stunned.
Just because of these few words, the first crack appeared in the community of interests that had just been united in the form of interests.
"This is against the rules."
The Hyuga clan leader frowned slightly.
Under normal circumstances, the elder's seat should be elected and succeeded by the jounin class and all members.
However, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not leave him any room:
"The Finance Department is a big deal and cannot be left vacant."
"So it's just a temporary replacement."
"As for the rules."
As he said that, the Third Hokage looked at him calmly and said calmly:
"Hyuuga Takuya-sama."
"I am the Hokage."
There was no emotional ups and downs in this calm tone, it was just stating an ordinary fact.
In this day and age, no one doubts this.
"If nothing happens, let's break up the meeting."
I may have to update late in the past two days. The electric car broke down the day before yesterday. I have to get up early for work these days. I don’t have enough time to write in the morning, so I can only make up for it during my break.
But I try my best to get out on time at night.
