Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke with deep sincerity!
Regarding Tsunade becoming the Fifth Hokage, he was confident that he could control Tsunade in front of him. This was also a choice forced upon the Konoha F3.
There was no helping it!
Uchiha Jin's methods were too experienced, and so many ninja clans had defected to him.
They knew very well in their hearts that because of their reckless actions over the years, their reputation had long stunk.
Now, if they wanted to reverse the current decline, they could only rely on the Senju foundation on Tsunade. They were familiar with doing this kind of thing, having experimented once on Namikaze Minato before.
Controlling from behind the scenes, they were adept at it!
Actually, among the Konoha Sannin, as long as it wasn't Orochimaru taking office, they actually didn't care whether it was Tsunade or Jiraiya.
Because the two couldn't harden their hearts, they could only be led by the nose by them!
Orochimaru was different.
This guy's blood was too cold. If he really became the Hokage, then all of them would be out.
Because if they were unwilling to hand over power, Orochimaru would really dare to kill them!
"Hokage? Hehe!"
"Only fools are willing to be Hokage; I, Tsunade, won't do such a stupid thing."
"Find whoever you want for this kind of thing!"
Tsunade's face was full of disdain, speaking the words from the original story.
However.
In the original story, Tsunade spoke very obscurely, and everyone simply thought that Tsunade was because of the deaths of Nawaki and Dan Kato.
But, in reality.
She had seen through the essence of power long ago, knowing that becoming Hokage was also being a puppet.
These old guys in front of her wouldn't be willing to hand over power!
They would use bullshit like "you are still young, we will help you control it first," thereby turning you, the so-called Hokage, directly into a puppet controlled by them.
"Tsunade, presumptuous!"
"This is the village's decision; you just have to accept it!"
"Do you know that your behavior can already be considered a rogue ninja?"
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura continued to spray uncontrollably.
In response to this.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little tired and couldn't help but shout angrily: "You two shut up! Do you think things aren't messy enough?"
"Hiruzen, you..." The two were a little surprised.
But, unfortunately.
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't be bothered to argue with these two idiots, knowing that stabilizing Tsunade was the most critical thing now.
Otherwise.
Who knew what a mess the village would become next?
Immediately after.
After completely shutting up the two useless people, he looked at Tsunade with deep affection.
"Stay, Tsunade!"
"You don't want the painstaking efforts of your two grandfathers to be completely messed up by the Uchiha like this, do you?"
Tsunade was unmoved by this.
Because she knew very well in her heart that if these old guys hadn't done too much evil, they wouldn't have pushed the Uchiha to that extent.
However.
Before she could speak, Jiraiya spoke again.
"I beg you, Tsunade, agree!"
"Seeing the village torn apart like this, doesn't your heart ache?"
"The Fifth Hokage must be you!"
But, unfortunately.
Tsunade's face was full of disdain. Even though everyone tried to persuade her, her face remained expressionless.
Yes!
After all, according to her own wishes, unless Sarutobi Hiruzen died, she wouldn't be willing to step into Konoha at all.
This time, it was completely an accident!
She was just entangled by Jiraiya and had to come back.
Take over as Hokage? Don't even think about it!
However.
Just as Tsunade was about to speak, a village Jonin suddenly knocked on the door.
Everyone present was stunned.
Especially Sarutobi Hiruzen, his face was full of displeasure.
At such a critical time, why is someone always interrupting?
But before he could speak, Jiraiya opened the door: "What is it?"
"Advisor Nara Shikaku submitted an inquiry letter to the Jonin Council." The visitor's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his eyes were even filled with a trace of fear.
In response to this.
Jiraiya was startled!
He knew very well that the current Nara Shikaku had long defected to the Uchiha side.
So.
Did the other party make another move?
Jiraiya subconsciously took the inquiry letter, and then waved his hand to let the Jonin leave.
There was no helping it.
The atmosphere in the Hokage's office was wrong now, so it was not suitable for ordinary ninjas to come in and disturb.
In response to this.
The Jonin didn't waste any words and left without saying a word.
Clearly.
He also knew that the situation in the village was wrong recently. After all, so many ninja clan members resigned and chose to join the Uchiha one after another. Even if he didn't know exactly what happened, he knew to try not to get involved in such messy affairs.
Immediately after.
After the Jonin left, Jiraiya closed the door again.
Then.
Ignoring his identity, he opened it immediately and started reading, and then his face turned pale.
"Teacher Sarutobi, something big has happened!"
"Everyone take a look first. If this matter is not resolved well, it will definitely cause a big disturbance!"
"Think of a solution quickly!"
"Based on my understanding of Uchiha Jin, this bastard must have other hidden moves!"
Everyone felt Jiraiya's panic.
Understanding that it was Uchiha Jin making a move again, thinking of the previous confrontations, their scalps naturally tingled for a moment.
"This bastard Uchiha Jin is simply endless!" Mitokado Homura said fiercely.
Utatane Koharu snorted coldly: "Damn it, we should have killed him earlier!"
On the other side.
Sarutobi Hiruzen did not agree, but turned to read the inquiry letter.
Then.
His face instantly turned ashen, and his whole body trembled slightly.
Others also sensed something was wrong and quickly took the inquiry letter, and even Tsunade leaned over.
She also wanted to feel the methods of that Uchiha Jin up close.
Hiss!
After reading it, their scalps tingled!
The content of this inquiry letter was also very simple. The village's financial data for the past three years did not match, and many funds had mysteriously disappeared.
Considering that the war had ended for two or three years, and the pensions for the village's sacrificed ninjas had not been issued, the commission money for all ninjas had not been settled, and various ninja tools and materials in the village needed to be reserved and could not be delayed any longer, so all major ninja clans jointly submitted an inquiry letter...
They wanted to check the accounts!
They wanted to know who exactly embezzled the financial funds that mysteriously disappeared within three years?
An inquiry letter, well-founded!
No one could find a reason to refuse, but at the same time, it completely pushed the village higher-ups into a corner.
Yes!
Tsunade actually knew very well in her heart that these mysteriously disappeared funds were most likely digested internally by the village higher-ups.
In the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others had strong dominance, and even if the major ninja clans knew very well in their hearts, they didn't dare to find fault in such matters. But now, with their joining the Uchiha...
The situation was reversed!
