Naruto: Konoha's Kanpu

Chapter 183: The Successor Candidate Orochimaru

Three days later.

Land of Fire, Konoha.

Hyga Clan.

Hyga Clans Clan Head, Hyga Hirofumi looked gloomily at the information in his hand.

This information came from a small branch along the southeast coast:

Three days ago, Hyga Kiku lost contact with the branch, two days ago, seven clansmen lost contact, and yesterday, the number of missing clan members reached 36 people

After reading the information, Hirofumi realized that the situation was not good, and was about to go to Great Elder, his father Hyga Nobuyuki, to discuss this matter. But unexpectedly, people from Anbu suddenly appeared!

Hyga Hirofumi had to go to Hokage Tower, and when he arrived at Hiruzens office, he found that Uchiha Clans Clan Head, Uchiha Tengoku had arrived.

In addition, there are three Hokages advisors: Shimura Danz, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.

The atmosphere in the office is somewhat depressing.

Hiruzen was smoking from his pipe, and his expression behind the smoke is gloomy and uncertain.

Everyone is here. Tengoku lowered his eyes and said. I believed that Kirigakure is not just a small trouble this time, Sandaime-sama, what is the village going to do?

Tengoku, defending the coastal area and scaring Kirigakure, this is the mission that the village has entrusted to you, Uchiha Clan and Hyga Clan!

Koharu said with a black face So, the village should be the one asking you about this, now that Kirigakures Shinobi is attacking, what are you two clans going to do?!

Tengokus expression remained unchanged, and his head slightly looked towards Hirofumi.

Hirofumi then said after pondering: Hokage-sama, three advisors, I just received information that thirty-six members of my Hyga Clans Branch House are missing, but strangely, there is no mention in the information about Kirigakures Shinobis information, so I concluded this time, Kirigakures Shinobi is definitely using their full force, and there must be a very powerful Shinobi among the attacker! How can we resist those Shinobi with our two clans alone?

Its already difficult for the village to get more Shinobi. The two Clan Heads should already know this.

Danz said in a condensed voice, The war with Sunagakure will not be over in a short time, and we cant transfer Shinobi from the defensive lines of Iwagakure and Kumogakure, so I ask the two Clan Heads to understand the difficulties of the village.

Recently, a large number of scattered Kirigakures Shinobi have been lurking in various places to create chaos, and the village has dispatched a lot of Shinobi to deal with these guys

Hirofumi then said slowly, the meaning is self-evident.

Most of these ninjas are Genin and Chunin. For your two clans, they shouldnt be able to help, right?

Danz squinted his one eye, then suddenly turned to look at Hiruzen, and said with a smile, But since you have spoken, I dont think Sandaime will refuse, right, Hiruzen?

Yes, I can assign these people to you two clans.

Hiruzen put down his pipe and said slowly, Moreover, the village will do its best to protect your logistics and supplies, and it will never affect the frontline!

Then, Im relieved. Hirofumi slowly nodded.

Then, do you have any more requests? Uchihas Clan Head! Homura was sitting calmly, but his eyes squinted at Tengoku. Please just say it!

Tengokus expressionless face suddenly showed a faint smile, and he said softly but firmly: No, our Uchiha Clan has no requirements!

Hiruzen, Koharu, Homuras faces changed slightly when they heard this.

As for Danz, a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

No requirement is the biggest requirement!

When this war is over, if the Uchiha Clan seeks more power and voice by relying on their contribution on the battlefield, what will Hiruzen do?

If he denied them, he will definitely receive a huge backlash.

For example, public opinion!

All civilians in the village will think that the Uchiha Clan participated on the battlefield without any requirements, and sacrifices so many clansmen to protect the village. But the result, they didnt even get the power and voice after doing all that. For Sandaime to stop them by rejecting them and guarding against them, this doesnt make sense, right?

But if he didnt stop it, it is not in line with Hiruzens character.

Its just that all of this would only happen after the war, and the most urgent matter now is to resist the Kirigakures Shinobi!

Then, Ill leave the Kirigakures Shinobi to you!

Hiruzen took a deep breath and said, Please protect this country and this village!

Hirofumi and Tengoku solemnly responded, and then left Hokage Tpower.

Hiruzen, now you have seen the Uchiha Clans ambitions, you have to be more careful about this matter!

Koharu left a word and left with Homura.

As for Danz, he sat at the end with a smile, then he stood up, shook his head and left with a sigh.

Hiruzen stared at Danzs back with a smile that was not a smile.

Soon, Hiruzen is the only one left in the huge office.

He was sitting behind his desk, the smoke filled the air, and his thoughts fluttered.

He is not thinking about how to deal with the situation in the Shinobi World, but about the situation Konoha will face after the war is over!

The Hyga Clan does not have the cohesion of competing with the Hokages line!

Tengoku is already old. So, if I guessed correctly, the one called Uchiha Fugaku should be his successor, and he will also be the candidate for the Yondaime Hokages position right?

As for Danz, this guy who I grew up together since childhood, is coveting the Hokages Position, but with his current situation, the biggest possibility is to push someone out to compete for the Hokages Position, attracting the attention of the others. That other person who is it?

Hiruzen slowly put down his pipe: It seems that I also have to choose a successor!

Tsunade?

As the granddaughter of Shodaime-sama, whether it is reputation, prestige, or strength, she is enough to serve as Yondaime Hokage!

Unfortunately, with her blood phobia, and gambling addict I cant afford it.

Jiraiya?

Hiruzen suddenly got a headache.

This guy is actually pretty good, but in terms of character Hiruzen then imagined Jiraiya wearing the Yondaime Hokages robe, hiding in the womens bathroom, standing on tiptoes, and peeping at the scenes of women taking a bath.

Rejected

Orochimaru

Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction when he recalled this figure.

"

"

Among the Sannin, his favorite is Orochimaru. After all, he is powerful enough to suppress the noble clan, he has calm and persistent character, love for companions and the villages, plus his civilian background, there is no intricate interest relationship behind him. He is well-deserved best successor!

The most important thing is that Orochimaru was taught by Hiruzen himself, and has definitely understood and inherited the Will of Fire from his teacher!

The more Hiruzen thought about it, the more satisfied he became, and he wished that Orochimaru would directly inherit the Yondaime Hokages position, but at this moment, Jiraiyas voice suddenly came from outside the office.

Hiruzen frowned, and called him in in dissatisfaction.

Then, after the door opened, he discovered that Minato was also coming.

Jiraiya, Minato, why are you here together? Hiruzen stood up and opened the window to let the fresh air blow away the choking smoke in the room.

This time, I came here for the Flying Thunder God Techniques notes left by Nidaime-sama!

Jiraiya said proudly, Old man, just cut the chit-chat, and give me all the Flying Thunder God Techniques notes left by Nidaime-samas research.

Hiruzen glanced at Jiraiya, then set his eyes on Minato.

Minato, havent you already mastered Flying Thunder God Technique, why do you still

Upon saying that, Hiruzens pupils suddenly shrank, Dont tell me. Are you planning to

Further develop the Flying Thunder God Technique?!

"

"

Even if the others are given one hundred years to learn, they still cant learn Flying Thunder God Technique, but now, you want to develop it further?
