Chapter 204 The End of Hiruzen Sarutobi

I have to say that with more chakra, a ninja’s upper limit of strength can indeed be increased.

After becoming the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Namikaze Minato, although he is not yet at the level of Uzumaki Naruto in later generations, he is still very close.

The Eight-Tailed Ushiuki is indeed not on the same level as the Kyuubi, but after all, it is also the second most powerful tailed beast. Its chakra is so strong that the other seven tailed beasts can only hold it back.

With the help of Namikaze Minato’s many shadow clones, the two of them arranged the fan-shaped flying thunder god barrier so fast that it took off

at the same time

While the two were working hard to set up a defensive line, the meeting hosted by Sarutobi Hiruzen also came to an end.

“What do you think of Namikaze Minato stripping off the Eight-Tails without authorization and making himself the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki?”

“This……”

The high-level officials of Konoha in the conference room looked at each other, and they were all a little unsure.

Namikaze Minato is the undisputed king of rookies in Konoha.

His record, strength, and achievements have crushed all the ninjas in Konoha

Although Hatake Akira and Kakashi are not bad, their age is a flaw, and there is no possibility of competing with Namikaze Minato.

But what is certain is that in Konoha ten years from now, the two brothers of the Hatake family will become the absolute mainstay.

“Just speak freely, there’s nothing you can’t say”

Seeing that the senior officials were silent, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only urge them.

“Sandaime Hokage-sama, I think we should wait until Namikaze Minato returns to Konoha to discuss this issue.”

The first person to speak up was Hatake Sakumo

His body is now stable, and the power of blood elimination has basically been integrated into his blood.

Perhaps it will only take one to two years before the new Konoha White Fang will be back online

And Hatake Sakumo’s physical condition once shocked the top management of Konoha.

However, after searching for the cause to no avail, the senior officials of Konoha gradually extinguished some of their small thoughts.

Hatake Sakumo’s political influence is still there, and his health is getting better and better. Coupled with his two sons’ success, only someone who has lost his mind would pick something at this juncture.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi is different. He is still the Hokage of Konoha. No matter who he is, Hiruzen Sarutobi has absolute political repression.

“Sakumo, you are not in good health, please sit down first.”

Finding a reason, Sarutobi Hiruzen automatically ignored Hatake Sakumo’s opinion,”Is there anyone else who wants to say something?”

“This……”

The senior executives looked at each other again, and they already understood to some extent Sarutobi Hiruzen’s plan.

But understanding is one thing, whether you want to do it or not is another

“Sandaime Hokage-sama, I agree with Sakumo.”

“Sandaime Hokage-sama, I also agree with Sakumo.”

“I also agree”

“Me too”

Listening to the statements of the Konoha executives in the audience, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly felt his hands and feet feel cold, and a fear beyond his control filled his heart.

Konoha is no longer the one-word hall of Sarutobi Hiruzen!

It’s just that Sarutobi Hiruzen still hasn’t figured out why the high-level officials of Konoha have such a strong backlash regarding Namikaze Minato.

However, Hatake Sakumo, who was sitting in the audience with the old god, looked up at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was standing on the stage.

Sighing secretly, Hatake Sakumo showed sympathy in his eyes

Sarutobi Hiruzen is old after all, he doesn’t know how powerful Konoha’s back wave is!

And anyone with a discerning eye can see that the lion of Sarutobi Hiruzen is already in his twilight years, while the new star of Namikaze Minato is in full swing.

Who should be chosen? Konoha’s senior officials have a clear idea of who to choose.

Of course, Hatake Sakumo’s contribution is indispensable for this. He has been running among the high-level officials of Konoha for the matter of Namikaze Minato.

Due to Sakumo Hatake’s own political influence and fear of the huge potential of the two Hatake brothers, all the senior officials in Konoha voted with their feet and knew which side to stand on.

“Sandaime Hokage-sama, we can talk about Namikaze Minato later.” Hatake Sakumo, who had just sat down, stood up again.

“Sakumo, what do you mean?”

“There are also problems with your previous topic”

“Huh?” Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyebrows,”Sakumo, what do you mean?……”

“We should not accept the peace proposal from Yunyin Village or the Country of Thunder, what we need is their peace proposal!”

Hatake Sakumo said eloquently,”Hokage-sama, we are the winners in this war, while the Kingdom of Thunder or Kumogakure Village are the real losers!”

“We have no reason or qualification to say forgiveness for those Konoha ninjas who died on the front lines!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not expect that Hatake Sakumo would suddenly become tough, and the results that had just been voted on would be overturned by him in the blink of an eye.

Sarutobi Hiruzen remembers……

It seems that Hatake Sakumo voted”no”!

But so what?

“Sakumo, I know you feel uncomfortable in your heart, but you have read the peace documents of Yunyin Village before with everyone. They may really fight us to the death.””

“And because Kirabi died in Minato’s hands, Minato even sealed the Eight-Tails without authorization, making himself the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki.”

“I don’t want to agree to Yunyin Village’s peace negotiation, but because of Minato’s recklessness, we completely lost the initiative in negotiations.……”

“This is something that can’t be helped. I hope you can understand it.””

“And the results of the vote just now also prove that my decision to agree to peace talks in Yunyin Village is right, so……”

“So what?!”

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could finish speaking, a feminine voice with a superior tone came out. Sarutobi Hiruzen’s face changed greatly, and at the same time, he subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the source of the sound.

“Daimyo… why are you… here?”

“Sarutobi Hiruzen, can’t I come?”

The Daimyo of the Fire Country glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen,”Did you get my consent for negotiating peace with the Country of Thunder?”

“I……”

“Although you are the Sandaime Hokage of Konoha, you are not qualified to make decisions for me about such a thing that is humiliating the country and losing power!””

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was very tough. His words made Sarutobi Hiruzen speechless and hemming and hawing, unable to explain why.

“Sarutobi Hiruzen, you disappoint me!”

The Daimyo of the Country of Fire walked to Hiruzen Sarutobi and said,”You are old and have lost the energy you had before. The matter of peacemaking in the Country of Thunder should be left to younger ninjas.”

“I heard that a very outstanding ninja appeared in the village. In terms of strength and prestige, he surpassed all ninjas of his generation.”

“Hmm…his name…um…is Minato Namikaze, right?””

“Yes……”

Sarutobi Hiruzen never thought that the Fire Country Daimyo would suddenly appear, but when the Fire Country Daimyo appeared, everything was no longer under Sarutobi Hiruzen’s control.

Regret, endless regret!

Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously glanced at Hatake Sakumo who was sitting under the stage, and a thought suddenly came to his mind.

Could it be……

Did Hatake Sakumo do all this secretly?!

To be honest, Sarutobi Hiruzen guessed correctly, but only half of it.

Sakumo Hatake is only the executor, and the maker of the plan is Akira Hatake who is far away on the front line!

Everything is in Hatake Akira’s calculations……

Although there are some flaws, the final result is still pretty much the same, very much in line with Hatake Akira’s expectations.

Combined with a series of foolish things done by Sarutobi Hiruzen in the original timeline, and Hatake Akira’s grasp of the current situation, he predicted that there would be a trick in the Hidden Cloud Village.

Although Hatake Akira is not very sure, based on his understanding of Yunyin Village, he believes that Yunyin Village can do such a thing

As for whether Sarutobi Hiruzen would agree to Kumoyin Village’s outrageous peace terms, Hatake Akira had no idea.

There is no bottom, but that doesn’t mean that Hatake Akira won’t take matters into his own hands and dig a hole for Sarutobi Hiruzen!

This pit is the eight tails!

In the original work, the fundamental reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen unilaterally rejected Orochimaru and chose Namikaze Minato as the Fourth Hokage was not because of Orochimaru’s secret research, but because Orochimaru was difficult to control!

Looking back at Minato Namikaze in the original timeline, he seems to have too much control.……

But with Akira Hatake’s intervention, the power behind Namikaze Minato has doubled and is no longer the same as in the original work.

This resulted in Hiruzen Sarutobi testing Namikaze Minato frequently.

However, because Namikaze Minato has been coping well, Sarutobi Hiruzen has been hesitating.

It is precisely because of this that Akira Hatake encouraged Namikaze to become the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki and forcibly made the decision for Sarutobi Hiruzen!

That’s it, Hatake Akira used his foresight and some small changes to push Sarutobi Hiruzen to where he is today step by step!

As for the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, it was Akira Hatake who asked Sakumo Hatake to come over just in case, just in case.

It has to be said that although the Daimyo of the Land of Fire is not very strong, his identity is very useful and became the last straw that completely overwhelmed Sarutobi Hiruzen!

“As long as I remember correctly”

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen nod, the Fire Country Daimyo smiled and continued,”Although I shouldn’t interfere in the selection of the next Hokage, in view of your confused decision, I decided to intervene.”

“But there is another problem. It is during the war, and there are some risks in changing the Hokage rashly.……”

“How about this.” The Fire Country Daimyo glanced at Hatake Sakumo,”For now, Hatake Sakumo will replace Sarutobi Hiruzen to exercise the power of Hokage. What do you think?”

“This……”

The reversals came one after another, making all the high-level officials of Konoha look at each other.

But then they realized that this was a fatal problem, and if they were not careful, it would bring them endless trouble.

But soon, they had a decision in their hearts

“Agree!”

“Agree!”

“Agree!”

All Konoha high-level officials voted in favor of the proposal of the Fire Country Daimyo, which indicated that Sarutobi Hiruzen would step down in a very humiliating way.

“Okay, that’s it”

The Fire Country Daimyo was about to leave, but before leaving, he did not forget to glance at Hatake Sakumo,”Remember the agreement between you and me?”

“If…hehe”

After leaving a meaningful smile, the Fire Country Daimyo left the conference room, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also suddenly lost his energy at the next moment.

As if he had aged dozens of years all of a sudden, Sarutobi Hiruzen was now a dying old man, with frighteningly cloudy eyes.

“Sakumo, you really hide your secrets.……”

“No”

Hatake Sakumo shook his head, not wanting to say more to Sarutobi Hiruzen,”Sandaime, the war is still going on on the front line, I think we should hand over the hand.”
