Naruto: Can't learn ninjutsu? I'll just practice immortality!

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen was actually a little tangled in his heart.

Such a big thing happened in Konoha Village, and as the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally couldn't be unaware of it.

Even Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that it must be his good friend Shimura Danzo who did it.

Just like the last time with Tsunade, although Danzo would definitely not admit it, it was probably him who did it.

This time was a little different from the Tsunade incident.

Last time Danzo discredited Tsunade, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't let the Anbu investigate because he was afraid that if the truth was really found out, it would easily split Konoha.

This time, Hatake Sakumo took the initiative to give up the mission, although Sarutobi Hiruzen said that he didn't blame him and let him have a good rest.

But there was still some meaning of warning in his heart.

So when Danzo used public opinion, Sarutobi Hiruzen neither supported nor opposed it.

According to Sarutobi Hiruzen's thinking, Hatake Sakumo, as a ninja, especially with the identity of the head of the Anbu, took the initiative to give up the mission for the lives of his teammates, which did discredit Konoha.

If this behavior is not criticized, more and more ninjas will imitate it, and those wealthy employers will see this irresponsible behavior.

In the future, I am afraid that employers will not give priority to Konoha, but other ninja villages that are more willing to work hard to complete the task.

In this way, the ninja village will not receive the employment task, the ninjas will not be able to perform the task to accumulate experience, and the ninja village will not be able to extract the handling fee for development.

If both the ninja and the village cannot develop, Konoha will gradually degenerate.

This is unacceptable to Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Therefore, when Danzo manipulated public opinion, he did not support or oppose it, which was actually a disguised acquiescence.

As a kind and good Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen certainly could not criticize Hatake Sakumo directly.

And Danzo saw through Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts and took the opportunity to vigorously suppress Hatake Sakumo's reputation.

After this public opinion storm, if there are still Konoha ninjas who dare to give up the task for their companions, Hatake Sakumo will be their precedent.

Now, the only problem that bothers Sarutobi Hiruzen is that public opinion is useful, but as it ferments for too long, he can no longer control the situation.

As of today, the public opinion storm about Hatake Sakumo giving up the mission has not only not stopped, but has intensified, with people saying that Hatake Sakumo will be expelled from the Anbu Minister and even expelled from the ninja.

For Sarutobi Hiruzen, he does want to give Hatake Sakumo a beating, but it does not mean that he really wants to kill Hatake Sakumo.

After all, Hatake Sakumo's strength is really good, and he is a very sharp blade.

For Konoha, one Hatake Sakumo can at least match a dozen or even dozens of jonin.

If this sharp blade is really broken, he will also feel distressed.

But with the public opinion of Konoha now, Sarutobi Hiruzen has no idea how to end it.

If he suppresses the public opinion now when it is in the limelight, it may damage the reputation of the Hokage.

Public opinion is like this. If you don't suppress it when it is small, it will backfire.

Now, even if Danzo, the instigator of all this, comes to suppress it personally, it is difficult to eliminate the side effects of this public opinion storm.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who cherishes his reputation, can only wait until the storm gradually subsides before eliminating it.

"Calculating the time, it's time for the Jonin meeting today." Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up from his seat and then came to the large conference room of Konoha.

The Jonin meeting is very important in every ninja village. Generally, it will only be held when the ninja village encounters a crisis. The Jonin in the ninja village will be called to vote to unify opinions and concentrate strength.

However, as time goes by, the Jonin meeting has gradually become a written rule.

Even if the ninja village does not encounter a crisis, it will be held once every month or several months, and the Hokage and many Jonin will work together to formulate the next development plan for the ninja village.

Because the war was over, and if nothing major happened, Konoha's jonin meetings usually followed a procedure, basically Sarutobi Hiruzen would say a few words on stage, and the jonin sitting below would vote to agree.

But for some reason, as more and more jonins rushed to the meeting room, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a little uneasy.

"It's just an ordinary jonin meeting, could there be any changes?"

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was alert. If someone attacked Konoha, they probably wouldn't choose the jonin meeting at this time.

At this moment, the meeting room was full of Konoha's top combat power.

Shaking his head, Sarutobi Hiruzen still threw away all his thoughts.

Next to Sarutobi Hiruzen, two consultants, Utatane Koharu and Mito Kado En, sat together, and on the other side was the ninja world'sAn Shimura Danzo.

At this moment, Shimura Danzo's eyes were focused on a corner of the conference room.

There, Hatake Sakumo was somewhat lonely with his head down. No jonin dared to sit next to him, and many people even looked at him coldly and complained.

You know, before this, every time there was a jonin meeting, Hatake Sakumo, the powerful ANBU Minister, almost sat in the most conspicuous position in the conference room, and his side was almost full of jonin who wanted to get closer.

It can only be said that the world is cold and human feelings are cold and warm, that's it.

Hatake Sakumo was very disappointed, but Shimura Danzo was very happy in his heart, because all this was his masterpiece!

It's almost done, just keep going, let Hatake Sakumo take the initiative to resign from the position of ANBU Minister, and he will no longer be a threat to Danzo's position of Hokage!

Even if Danzo may not be able to get his hands on the position of ANBU Minister, at least he can pull Hatake Sakumo, a strong competitor, into the water.

It can be said that Danzo may not be able to improve himself, but he is a professional at slandering others!

"The number of people is almost here." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked around at the hundreds of jonins in the meeting room.

These jonins are far from the limit of Konoha. In addition to those jonins who are doing tasks outside, there are actually many jonins who did not attend the meeting.

Some of them are hiding their strength. For example, the jonins of the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan must be more than the dozen who came to the meeting.

Another part is that some jonins don't like this formalism. Unless Konoha is in crisis, they will attend the jonin meeting, otherwise they are generally too lazy to attend.

Jonin not only represents strong strength, but also has great power, and can even decide the candidate for Hokage through a vote of confidence.

So for those who don't want to attend the meeting, Sarutobi Hiruzen can only let it go.

"Then let's start the jonin..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was interrupted by a figure who just walked into the meeting room before he finished speaking.

"Sorry, I'm almost late." Asakawa Naoki's voice came slowly from the door.
