MTL - The Life of a Villain Starting From Naruto-Chapter 9 Calculation against Hinata and Uchiha

 Chapter 9: Calculation against Hinata and Uchiha

What Hinata Yuuto didn't expect was that just when he returned to his clan in a leisurely manner, a meeting concerning his fate had quietly begun.

 An extremely detailed analysis report was placed in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The autopsy reports of Tetsujiro Sugisaki, Mahiro Sato, Reiro Yamagata, and Eiji Hirahara have been submitted by the ninjas of the medical class.

There is no doubt. If there is any doubt, it is Tetsujiro Sugisaki's fatal injury - the penetrating wound between the fourth lumbar vertebrae and the fifth lumbar vertebrae. It was obtained from a surprise attack from behind, and a kunai was used. .

For Kumogakure ninjas who are good at using Thunder Release Ninja Taijutsu, their fingers are the sharpest blades, so the reporter concluded at the end:

“I really can’t figure out why the final battle ended in hand-to-hand combat.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen just glanced at it and put this doubt behind his mind.

The Hokage of Konoha has always been a practical fighter who relies on military exploits and strategies. Sarutobi Hiruzen has lived to this day and has experienced more than a thousand battles, large and small. He naturally understands that ninjas will fight for their lives until the end and will treat each other like wild beasts. Bite, he had witnessed with his own eyes the way two very powerful jounin fought until they ran out of gas, desperately stabbing the frozen fish into each other's body.

The bodies of the ninjas killed in the Konoha battle were recovered, and the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen did not question the report of the only survivor. All the credit for the surprise reconnaissance team's "obtaining important information" and "killing many hostile ninjas from the ninja village" was lost. On Hinata Yuuto's body.

 Taking into account the previous accumulation, the genius of the branch family already has a very solid military exploits.

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes, and what Hinata Yuto said to him in this office yesterday came to mind involuntarily.

The door creaked open, and three people filed in.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not feel dissatisfied with the intruder and said softly:

“Danzo, Yan, and Koharu, you are here.”

"Hiruzen..." The three of them stood in front of the desk. When there were no outsiders, they would call each other by their names instead of their distinguished titles.

Every week, in this Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadoyan, and Koharu who have been transferred to the dormitory will have secret meetings. There are no records of ANBU observers, no leader of the ninja clan in the village, and not even Saru Hiruzen's proud disciples, the "Three Ninjas", will not appear.

Most of the shady and secretive conspiracies, and even the policies that affect the entire Fire Country, take shape at this time.

"Hiruzen." Shimura Danzo spoke first. He had a scar on his lower jaw and bandages on his right eye and forehead. Even if he didn't speak, he was difficult to get close to:

"Let's strike first and let Namikaze Minato sneak into Kumogakure Village and attack the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki. We will prepare a portable jutsu. Maybe we can break the sealing technique and release the Eight-Tails."

Releasing the Eight-Tails in the center of Kumogakure Village is too "anti-human" even in the world of Naruto. After all, there are still a large number of ordinary people living in the Ninja Village, and with the destructive power of the Eight-Tails, the number of casualties in the Kingdom of Thunder will definitely reach six figures. .

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. There were no outsiders here, and there was no need to maintain Wei Guangzheng's image. So he seriously thought about the feasibility of this plan:

“The Eight-Tails is a perfect Jinchuuriki, and the fit is very good. I’m afraid ordinary techniques won’t work.”

"Then let Minato Namikaze bring the Uchiha people. With the Sharingan and the forbidden technique, the probability of releasing the Eight-Tails is more than 40%!"

"Danzo, do you want the world to know that Konoha did this? Even if the plan succeeds, several major countries will attack us."

 “Then fight!” Danzo Shimura didn’t take it seriously:

“At that time, Kumogakure’s vitality was severely weakened, and the only one Iwagakure noticed was the immortal Ohnoki… As for Sunagakure and Kirigakure? Hehe, they are local chickens and dogs.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while, and finally shook his head:

"It's too risky... One against four, I am the Hokage, I can't kidnap the whole village to accompany me on the adventure."

"Hmph..." Danzo Shimura snorted, but Hiruzen Sarutobi had already called himself Hokage when he spoke, and he had obviously made up his mind. He had no choice but to give up. At this moment, Xiaochun, who had gone to bed silently, suddenly spoke:

"However, the war is about to begin. Kumogakure is already ready to make a move. Iwagakure's attacks on us are also increasing day by day. The other two powerful ninja villages are also preparing for war. Once the war starts, it will definitely not be a small fight... I think that the third time in the ninja world The war will happen in these two years."

"I understand." Hiruzen Sarutobi said calmly, blowing out a smoke ring:

"Today, I mainly want to discuss this matter. If a war sweeps the entire world and all five major ninja villages participate in the war, we will not be able to respond with conventional troops."

 He paused and then said:

"Uchiha and Hinata must be allowed to use more combat power. Sharingan and Byakugan have a great influence on the battlefield. We need these two blood successor limits."

Mito Menyan nodded in response:

"It's a very good idea, Hiruzen. In the past, although Hinata and Uchiha would send troops to help the village, their core strength was hidden. It was enough to deal with small frictions on the border, but if the Third War of Ninja World really happened, If an outbreak occurs, we really need their full help, but sending more troops means greater casualties. They..."

Shimura Danzo sneered, and there seemed to be a smell of blood in his teeth:

 “If they are rejected, we can take this opportunity to put them…”

 “Danzo.” Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head:

“We are all from the same village. In my eyes, both Hinata and Uchiha are brothers, and they both belong to the power of Konoha. There is no need to reach that level.”

 “Oh? What do you think we should do?”

"We can give them a hint." Hiruzen Sarutobi squinted his eyes and recounted his thoughts:

"It hints to them that Hinata and Uchiha will be given priority for the position of the next Hokage or the next Hokage... Well, Danzo, Monoyan, Koharu, don't worry, I know that people from powerful ninja clans like Hinata and Uchiha will do it. The Hokage is inappropriate."

“Therefore, it is just a hint. The so-called hint is a blank check that will never be realized.”

“Like blindfolding a donkey and putting a carrot in front of it, you can smell the smell, so you will work hard and give your strength, but you will never eat it.”

The other three were silent. Everyone knew Hinata and Uchiha's desire for the position of Hokage. Using this to hang them was indeed an excellent way to make the two clans work hard.

The key is whether the hint is clever or not.

Let them truly feel that "the Hokage throne is possible", and at the same time, they can easily shirk and prevaricate after the war.

 Can't make any substantial commitments, but they are substantial enough.

 Be blatant, "naked" hint.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not lie:

 “My three disciples, one Thousand Hands and two commoners.”

"The apprentice's apprentice also does not have Uchiha and Hinata. This is a very bad hint... It seems to mean that for a long time, these two ninja clan will not be at the core of Konoha's master and apprentice lineage, and they will not be able to be Hokage. position."

"I'm old and don't have the energy to train disciples anymore, so I will let my disciples select a heir of a big clan to tell the outside world that I do not reject Hinata and Uchiha, and I am even willing to consider them as the leaders of Konoha. .”
