Chapter 83 The Third Hokage’s Scales Are Offset

Inside the Hokage's office.

There was a pungent smell of smoke in the air. Although Nara Shikaku was afraid of trouble, his clever mind immediately figured out the reasons.

He was afraid of trouble, but the Inar, Deer, and Butterflies clan had made it clear that they belonged to the Hokage clan, especially his clan, which was known as the Hokage's think tank and would never get rid of it.

Seeing the Nara deer not making a sound for a long time, the Sandaime Hokage slowly put down the pipe in his hand and said hoarsely: "The ANBU minister visited the Nara clan three days ago, although you were on duty at the time."

The Third Hokage's gentle words instantly made Nara Shikaku's face become serious, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. This was the Third Hokage beating him.

"Lord Hokage, I didn't learn about this until I got back."

Although Nara Shikaku is from the Hokage line, he is smart and doesn't want to get involved. After all, no one from above has expressed his opinion. Today's Third Hokage has not yet reached the age of Chuunin Exams, but his combat power is still barely maintained.

Peak state.

Listening to Nara Shikaku's explanation, the Sandaime Hokage slowly shook his head and sighed: "Although Shinnosuke's strength is good at his age, it is still difficult to convince the public."

After saying these words, Nara Shikaku's mind started to spin crazily. He raised his head and looked at the silent expression of the Third Hokage, as if he was trying to figure out the Third Hokage's thoughts.

"Hokage-sama, the ANBU minister promised to be the captain of the Jonin squad." In an instant, he analyzed that the third generation of Hokage was tilting the scales, and Nara Shikaku said this respectfully.

The verbal dialogue between the two seems to be inconsistent, but it is full of obscure discussions.

Now that the Third Hokage has spoken out about Shinnosuke, it proves that his heart has been diverted. From a selfish point of view, this is his son, a double Hokage. This is enough to spread the names of his father and son to future generations.

Yu Gong, Konoha has experienced three wars and has yet to take a breath. Another disaster is the Nine-Tails, and it has lost the Fourth Hokage. This is simply a heavy blow, and it is adding insult to injury. Konoha cannot withstand the turmoil, or the Third Hokage's.

His political philosophy has always been to seek stability, so he chose the most stable candidate for the transfer of power.

However, Nara Shikaku tentatively mentioned this position. The current candidate for this position is Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who came out of the ANBU and is now stationed at the border.

When Shikaku Nara took up the position of captain of the Jonin class, the original Sarutobi Shinnosuke could only move up.

Nara Shikaku swallowed nervously when he thought of this. His mind was one thing. This was the Hokage, who held the power of life and death in Konoha, the strongest of the five countries.

Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly filled the pipe again, and with his near-perfect control over chakra properties, he could easily light the tobacco through the ordinary wooden pipe.

Smoke filled the office again. Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly lowered his Hokage hat and said in a deep voice: "The village cannot withstand the turmoil now. Orochimaru's character sitting in this position will bring uncontrollable changes to Konoha."

, If it were the village’s heyday, Orochimaru would be the best candidate.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen has always strived for victory in a stable manner. After all, as a village shadow, he is not allowed to take risks, and his character is destined to end.

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned his head and looked through the window in the direction of the Hokage Rock. His cloudy eyes were a little confused, and he murmured to himself: "Teacher, I am doing this for Konoha."

Was Sarutobi Hiruzen wrong? Nara Shikaku also sighed quietly when he thought of this. There is never right or wrong in politics.

If you want stability, choose the safest way to transfer power. The next Hokage will inherit his idea of ​​running the village, and the village will become strong again in at most ten years.

If Orochimaru becomes the fifth generation, Sarutobi Hiruzen also knows that it may lead Konoha to a new height, but it may also lead Konoha into an abyss of collapse.

Orochimaru faced two major political crises when he came to power, which Sarutobi Hiruzen could not accept. One was the turmoil in the village due to the change of political power.

The second is that Orochimaru's political philosophy is completely in conflict with him. I am afraid that the village will fall into war. At that time, the village will only have two situations. One is that under the leadership of Orochimaru, Konoha will become powerful again.

In the ninja world, the other is that Konoha's vitality will wither again.

"Hokage-sama, the Nara clan requested to go to the border to assist Shinnosuke-sama."

Nara Shikaku is definitely a smart man. After the Third Hokage expressed his stance, he already knew that Orochimaru had given up on the uncertainty. I am afraid that big things will happen in the village soon. He did not want to get involved and wanted to take sides.

The best way is to go to the front lines.

Looking at Nara Shikaku's respectful look, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not reveal his inner thoughts. Instead, he sighed melancholy: "The frontline really needs people like you, Shikaku, to assist Shinnosuke."

These words of the Third Hokage immediately put a smile on Nara Shikaku's face, which almost promised him to become the captain of the Jonin class in the future.

Although this is a position without much real power, his status is completely at the same level as the six major ministers of Konoha. During wars and special periods, he can command an army.

"If you go to the front line, please file a complaint against Shinnosuke and tell him to put more effort into his cultivation. Although I can help him for a while, I may not be able to help him for the rest of his life."

Strength! Sarutobi Shinnosuke meets the requirements in every aspect, except for strength. As for reputation? When they have all their high-level platforms, there is no such thing as insufficient reputation.

If the strength of one village shadow fails to meet the standards, Konoha will be disgraced and become a joke in the ninja world.

Nara Shikaku secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He was far away from the center of the village's struggle, and he could be on the lap of the future Hokage. It was a win-win situation.

Unfortunately, no one expected that Orochimaru defected, and the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law of the Sandaime Hokage were sacrificed. The three generations were mixed up without getting anything, and Konoha was plunged into turmoil.

It seems that the only winner is Nara Shikaku, who became the captain of Konoha's jounin class.

…

A black shadow appeared behind him like a flea, and Nara Shikaku, who had just come out of the Hokage's office building, had a wry smile on his face.

"Minister, the Third Hokage has asked me to go to the border to assist Shinnosuke-sama."

Looking at Nara Shikaku's wry smile, clearly not wanting to get too involved in the political struggle, the ANBU minister chuckled lightly, and the only eyes exposed under the mask were filled with a confident smile.

"Captain Shikakujounin squad, don't worry, I never wanted to hide any of this from the Hokage."

Looking at this ANBU minister, who is also the eldest daughter-in-law of the Third Hokage, Nara Shikaku's face was fine, but he was filled with fear in his heart.

This woman is not simple, she is all scheming, she has completely figured out the third generation's thoughts, nothing is hidden, everything is completely exposed under the eyes of the Hokage.

Very smart, if the Third Hokage had not acquiesced, he would have stopped it long ago. It is obvious that this Hokage acquiesced.

This person has grasped the political philosophy of the Third Hokage, seeking stability, so he contacted all the top brass in Konoha so unscrupulously.

Please support.
