To restore peace to the ninja world!
As soon as the news came out, the entire ninja world was shaken again.
Cloud Village was planning to attack Konoha!
All along, Cloud Village had been the second largest ninja village with strength second only to Konoha.
This village was established by military force, and its military strength was very strong.
The Fourth Raikage himself also possessed the top strength in the ninja world, and had great prestige in the ninja world.
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, the supreme commander was the Fourth Raikage. The strength and prestige of this person could be seen.
In addition, Cloud Village also possessed the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails, two nuclear bombs, as ultimate secret weapons.
Konoha's situation really seemed very bad.
...
Konoha.
As usual, Konoha on this day was as oppressive and deserted as ever, without a trace of vitality.
Under the promotion of the Uchiha clan, all kinds of negative information about the Third Hokage were still spreading wildly throughout the village.
After several days of brewing, blackening the Third Hokage had really become the mainstream of public opinion.
The villagers' attitudes towards Kouki, and towards the Uchiha clan, had been greatly eased.
After all, although the Uchiha clan had killed so many people in the village, it was a helpless move under duress.
You couldn't say that the Third Hokage was planning to start exterminating the clan, and you wanted the Uchiha clan to stretch their necks and wait for death, right?
"The time is almost right!"
Inside the temporary base, Hizashi Hyuga, Ibiki Morino, Suzaku Nara, Koharu Utatane, and other remaining high-level officials gathered together again.
Suzaku glanced at the big figures around him, and opened his mouth with a serious face.
"Now the villagers are not so resistant to Kouki anymore. It's time to announce the news that Kouki has been nominated for the Fifth Hokage."
"Is it too fast?" Koharu Utatane frowned, "There are still many villagers who resist the Uchiha clan."
"Yeah, Suzaku, haste makes waste. If the steps are too big, I'm afraid something will go wrong." Ibiki Morino also nodded in agreement on the side.
"I know all of this, but we can't wait any longer!" Suzaku Nara said decisively, "Other villages must be eager to make a move. We must make plans as soon as possible."
"Lords, something bad has happened!"
While the few were discussing serious matters, suddenly an Anbu ninja ran in with a look of panic.
The faces of the big figures in the base couldn't help but freeze. A feeling of extreme badness faintly arose in their hearts.
Being able to make a well-trained and mature ninja so flustered, no matter what happened, it must be no small matter.
"What's wrong, tell me slowly."
Hizashi Hyuga said to the Anbu ninja.
"Cloud Village just now, declared war on Konoha!"
"According to our intelligence, Cloud Village is now beginning to assemble ninja troops, and they will attack Konoha at any time!"
The Anbu ninja said to the big figures with a face full of sweat.
"What!"
"There is such a thing!"
All the big figures in the base suddenly changed their faces, and no one could remain calm.
Everyone had long expected that after the turmoil in Konoha spread out, other villages would inevitably be eager to make a move, but they didn't expect Cloud Village to be so straightforward.
They launched a war against Konoha so quickly!
"Bang!"
Ibiki Morino slammed the table heavily, his face full of anger, "It's really outrageous, that group of bastards, they're too hateful, they're actually taking advantage of the fire to rob!"
The other high-level officials were also all furious.
"The worst thing has indeed happened." Suzaku shook his head and sighed, "But fortunately we have made the right choice!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but feel a burst of rejoicing.
Fortunately, they chose to listen to Suzaku Nara's advice at that time, enduring humiliation and bearing the huge burden of agreeing to let Kouki serve as the Fifth Hokage.
Otherwise, the village wouldn't have had time to be destroyed in the internal strife with Konoha, and it would have been destroyed by Cloud Village first.
After years of consumption during the Third Shinobi World War, Konoha was already somewhat unable to do what it wanted. Facing the powerful Cloud Village, it didn't dare to collide with it easily.
Not to mention the current situation.
If the Uchiha clan didn't take action, Konoha would have no other outcome but destruction when facing Cloud Village.
"I suggest that we immediately elect Kouki to serve as the acting Hokage!"
Suzaku Nara then said to the bigwigs with a serious face, and immediately received the unanimous approval of the bigwigs.
"Since everyone agrees, then please wait a moment, I'll go and invite Kouki over."
After Suzaku Nara greeted everyone, he went to the Uchiha clan territory himself.
He politely invited Kouki out.
Before long, Kouki's figure appeared in the temporary base with Suzaku Nara.
Just sitting there simply, without doing anything, brought an unspeakable pressure to the bigwigs at the scene.
"Kouki, there are two things we want to discuss with you this time." Suzaku Nara said to Kouki with a serious face.
"The first thing is that after our discussion, we feel that the time is almost right. We plan to let you serve as the acting Hokage first."
"During this period, we will file your acting Hokage list with the Daimyo, and at the same time, we will hold a trust vote meeting. After the vote is passed, you will officially become the Fifth Hokage of Konoha."
"You can handle this kind of thing as you see fit, what about the second thing?" Kouki asked very casually.
"We just received news that Cloud Village has declared war on Konoha and is assembling ninja troops. I'm afraid they will attack soon."
Suzaku Nara said to Kouki with incomparable heaviness and solemnity.
