Sage Body From Konoha

Chapter 189: Toughness and Ignorance (4K)

The daimyo heard Danzo’s plan.

During this period, his frowning brows gradually stretched, until finally, he finally smiled and clapped his hands in applause:

“Very well, this matter is left to you.”

“I will definitely not disappoint the adult’s trust.” Danzo bowed again, his eyes gleaming.

“Dame-sama, what about me.” Kimura Xin was anxious seeing this scene.

“Um… you’ll be there to assist Danzo, give him a shot.”

The daimyo thought for a moment, and said casually. Upon hearing this, Kimura’s body suddenly stiffened and his complexion was extremely ugly.

“what……”

At this time, the daimyo yawned and looked sleepy, “I haven’t been so worried for a long time. Now I have to take a rest and play mahjong in the afternoon.”

When the voice fell, he stood up with the help of his servant, turned and left.

Watching the daimyo leave, an imperceptible chill flashed in Danzo’s eyes.

Once, as a ninja, he was also in awe of the natural and noble daimyo, but after witnessing Uchiha Madara’s almost godlike power, Danzo discovered—

Da Ming is a fart.

In the eyes of Danzo today, Da Ming is an incompetent idiot. It won’t be long before he can control the Daming Mansion through various means and make the Daming Country of Fire become his own puppet.

At this time, a provocative voice came from the side, interrupting Danzo’s thoughts.

“Danzo, don’t think that if you give the order, I will obediently listen to your instructions.” Kimura Shinobi sneered.

“act recklessly.”

Danzo was expressionless and stretched out a hand to Kimura Shinobu. He only heard a “shoo” sound, and a Wood Style cane shot out of his hand, and it entangled Kimura Shinobu’s neck tightly.

“Uh…” Kimura Shin’s eyes widened, his face turned black, and he was almost choked to death. Finally, when Danzo took back the cane, he fell to the ground with a bang like a dead dog.

“My lord, please spare your life!” Kimura Shin, who had recovered his life, surrendered to Danzo in extreme fear.

“Humph.”

Danzo snorted coldly, strode out, and couldn’t wait to execute the plan.

Two days later.

A news came from the Daming Mansion to Konoha Village——

Daimyo announced that the military funding for Konoha will be resumed immediately, and the first batch of funds has reached a staggering 300 million taels, a record high in history.

Then, the Daimyo Prefecture praised Konoha Village’s “summer miracle” and said that it would send people to Konoha to learn the reform experience and apply it to the governance of the country of fire.

In addition, the Daimyo Prefecture also hopes to further strengthen economic exchanges with Konoha Village, including the acquisition of “Konoha No. 1” rice at a high price, and investment in Konoha’s real estate and infrastructure construction.

From the outside world.

Through this series of actions, the Daming Mansion took the initiative to lower his posture, showing Konoha’s attitude of submissiveness. Under such circumstances, Konoha’s attitude towards the Daimyo Prefecture has also been greatly eased, and the relationship between the two parties has picked up again.

Soon after this.From the big name mansion, another heavy news came out, shocking the entire Konoha Village. That is:

The Daimyo Prefecture will select the new 12 guardian ninjas. Out of absolute trust in Konoha, there are a total of eight ninja candidates in Konoha Village, including Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hiashi, Hatake Sakumo, Orochimaru, Tsunade , Furuhoshi, Might Dai, and a Jōnin from the Shimura clan.

The Daming Mansion hopes that these eight elite ninjas can go to the Daming Mansion as soon as possible to perform their duties.

Around this news, a wide range of discussions arose in Konoha Village.

Guard the Twelve Ninjamen.

This title refers to the twelve elite ninjas who are responsible for protecting the Daimyo of Fire Country. They are Daimyo’s private independent direct troops, usually composed of the best ninjas recruited from all over the country.

For every ninja in the country of fire, joining the guardian ninja is a dream thing.

Because this means great honor and fame, and it is the only way for the elite ninjas of the country of fire to leap over the dragon gate and rise to the top.

In the previous recruitment process of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, Konoha usually had only one or two ninjas, but this time it jumped to as many as eight, occupying two-thirds of the quota.

Many Konoha Village residents are very happy about this, because it means that Konoha Village’s influence in the country of fire has reached an unprecedented peak.

All of this is undoubtedly the result of Konoha’s efforts to achieve reforms, which made the Daming Mansion look at him with admiration.

However, in this festive atmosphere, some people felt something was wrong.

Hokage office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly as he looked at the list sent by the Da Mingfu in his hand. Opposite his desk, all the eight people on the list, except Tsunade, were already there.

“What are your respective opinions?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the list and asked everyone.

“Tell Hokage-sama that I need a few days to transfer Anbu’s work, and then I can leave.”

Hatake Sakumo was the first to speak and replied.

Although he was reluctant to leave Konoha and the companions and family he had been with day and night, he still showed no complaints when facing the recruitment of the Daming Mansion. Not for fame and honor, but for fulfilling the responsibilities of a ninja.

In Shumao’s view, after he went to Daming Mansion with other colleagues who were recruited this time, he could play a role as a bond and maintain a good relationship between Daming Mansion and Konoha for a long time.

After he expressed his opinion, Maru Hoshi Kosuke and Might Dai also spoke one after another, which was consistent with Shumo’s attitude.

Although the two of them don’t like daimyo very much, after all, the daimyo government has just allocated 300 million taels to Konoha, and the attitude is very low and friendly. At this time, if you are looking for an excuse to refuse to work in the famous mansion, it would be a bit unreasonable.

In addition, Jōnin from the Shimura clan even stated that he should set off to the Daming Mansion immediately, and don’t let the Daming wait for a long time, otherwise it would be too rude.

So far, half of the eight people on the list have made a statement that they are willing to become the guardian of the twelve ninjas.

“Sorry, I don’t want to go.”

Hyuga Hiashi said coldly. He had long seen the daimyo not pleasing to his eyes, and asked him to protect the daimyo. For Hiashi, this was unacceptable.

“Me too.” Fugaku agreed. Like Hiashi, he was dissatisfied with the daimyo. Moreover, he is about to succeed the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, and it is impossible to leave the clan at this time.

“I still have a lot of research to do.”

Orochimaru hesitated, and frowned, saying that he had no interest in this position.

After listening to everyone’s comments, Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into deep thought.

He clearly knew that some of the people on this list were the mainstays of the current village. If they went to the Daming Mansion at this time, Konoha’s reforms would not be able to deepen further.

Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that the purpose of the Daimyofu was to recruit the guardian ninja as an excuse to interfere with Konoha’s reforms. Talents like Orochimaru and Tsunade will not be able to return for at least a few years after going to the Daimyo Prefecture, which is equivalent to being under house arrest in disguise.

Faced with this situation, Konoha couldn’t find an excuse to refuse.

Because the Daming Mansion had taken the initiative to ease the relationship with Konoha in order to cut off the latter’s chance of turning his face.

After all, the daimyo is still the ruler of the fire country, and Konoha Village is the territory of the fire country. If you refuse the recruitment of the daimyo mansion, it is equivalent to blatantly defying the daimyo’s order.

At that time, the daimyo will have a legitimate reason to send Konoha troops, and millions of troops will be crushed, which will cause a devastating blow to Konoha Village.

This is the arrogance of the Daming Mansion.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen furrowed his brows even tighter, almost forming a “chuan” character.

At this moment, an Anbu ninja hurried into the office and reported to him:

“Master Hokage, Master Hahiko, and Master Tsunade have returned to the village and are waiting in the lobby on the first floor.”

“Hurry up and let them come to my office.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this and said immediately. He urgently needs to consult Yu Yan. After all, the people on this list, except for the Shimura Jōnin, have a lot of friendship with Yu Yan.

The Daming Mansion came for Yu Yan.

Crunch.

The door opened, and Yuhiko and Tsunade walked in side by side.

After leaving Loulan Kingdom, they heard about it on the road, so they separated from the Loulan clan in advance and rushed back to Konoha as quickly as possible.

“Daming Fu’s move is to interfere with Konoha’s reforms and to weaken the strength of Hokage’s line. We can’t get caught.”

Yu Yan said straightforwardly, clarifying the nature of the problem as soon as he came up.

“Then, how do you respond?” Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

“It’s very simple, just refuse.” Yu Yan said categorically. As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the office showed a surprised look.

“Master Yuhiko, what if the Daimyo Mansion asks Konoha for this?” Hatake Sakumo couldn’t help asking.

“Then just ignore it, be tough to the end, and see how Daming Mansion can take Konoha.”

Yuhiko replied without hesitation.

In his opinion, facing the Da Ming Mansion’s arrogance, he must be simple and rude, and not follow the other party’s routine, so as not to be led by the nose.

“I support Hahiko.” Tsunade was the first to stand up.

“So are we.” Fugaku, Hiashi, and Orochimaru followed suit, and once again declared that they were not interested in the name of the so-called Guardian Ninja Twelve.

“And us.” Maru Hoshi Kosuke and Might Dai also changed their pervert degrees, because they trust Hahiko 100%.

Only Hatake Shumo was still hesitating.

“Captain Shumo, Konoha needs you, and Anbu needs you too. Please listen to me and stay with Konoha.”

Upon seeing this, Yuhiko looked at Hatake Sakumo with sincere eyes, and said.

He remembered that in the original time and space, the daimyo of the land of fire was very familiar with “Konoha’s White Fangfang” Hatake Shumo, which shows that Shumo may have joined the guardian ninja.

As a ninja, caught between Konoha Village and Daimyofu, you will inevitably become involuntary, similar to the role played by Uchiha Itachi.

Yuhiko believes that Hatake Sakumo Hatake was forced to commit suicide because he was involved in the political struggle between Konoha and the daimyo.In order to avoid this tragedy, Yu Yan decided to give advice.

“…I understand, I listen to Master Yuhiko.”

Hatake Sakumo took a deep breath and replied. He also knew that when six people on his side refused to go to the Daming Mansion for employment, his idea of ​​turning into a “bond” was meaningless.

“You guys, are you all crazy?”

At this time, Jōnin from the Shimura clan suddenly shouted at Yuhiko and the others, “Uzumaki Yuhiko, you incited everyone to defy the daimyo’s order, so what is the face of the daimyo? Have you ever thought about the daimyo’s anger? , Send an army to attack Konoha, how will it end?!”

Yuyan glanced at the other person and realized that this person was the Shimura Jōnin who had taken the lead in attacking him during the Jōnin meeting.

“If the daimyo wants to send an army, it would have been sent a long time ago. Why do so many twists and turns. After all, it is not because of the fear of Konoha’s power? Besides, who said that we collectively disobeyed the order, and you are not left. Do you express your position? I think you must be very happy to serve as the guardian of the Twelve Ninjas. We strongly support your decision and will never obstruct it.”

He stared at each other and said lightly, with a smile on his face.

The rest of the office also looked at the Shimura Jōnin meaningfully, as if they were looking at an outsider.

“you……”

The Shimura Jōnin looked ugly and walked straight out.

“Then… how to deal with the grant from the Daming Mansion? Yu Yan, do you think we should return the money?”

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked again.

“Why retreat? Da Ming is so generous, of course we are going to laugh at it, everyone thinks?”

Yuhiko spoke of course, and looked at Tsunade, Fugaku, Hiashi and others, each showing a knowing smile.

Everyone in the office felt Yu Yan’s toughness. In their perception, before Yu Yan, even First Hokage Senju Hashirama did not dare to treat daimyofu with this attitude.

However, they will support Yu Yan without hesitation and believe in Yu Yan.

Because the facts have proved that this man always becomes the hero of the village again and again.

after one day.

Konoha Village sent a notice to the Daimyo Prefecture, thanking the Daimyo Prefecture for selecting and guarding the twelve ninjas in Konoha. However, due to personal reasons, the eight ninjas on the recruitment list, except for the Shimura Jōnin, are not available. It is convenient to go to the daimyo mansion and is willing to give this precious opportunity to other ninjas in the land of fire.

After the news spread, there was an uproar in the land of fire.

Because, Konoha’s signal almost indicated to the outside world that the confrontation between Konoha Village and Daming Palace has been put on the surface without any disguise.

From this day on, the relationship between Konoha and the Daming Mansion will never go back to the past.

Inside the Daming Mansion.

“Danzo! You messed things up and let the Da Ming Mansion sweep the floor with majesty, you’re done!”

Shin Kimura came to Danzo’s room and yelled at the latter.

“shut up!”

Danzo’s complexion was sullen, and he directly lifted the bandage on his right eye, and Three Tomoe Sharingan released the illusion. Under the impact of the strong pupil power, Kimura Xin turned into a dementia on the spot.

“Swirl, vortex, feather, and Yan.”

Danzo said the name word by word, gritted his teeth, his expression was extremely gloomy, and his eyes were full of hatred and murder.

“Crack!”

In extreme anger, he slapped the table in front of him to pieces.
