Kapitel 57: 57
T/N - Everyone made an escape… Kushina woe up at the end.
-----------------------------
Tatsumi and a group of Academy students were enjoying a peaceful time at this moment.
Most of them had not realized that the pace before war is coming, and no one can escape it.
At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked into the Hokage Residence.
Hokage Residence was established on the eve of the establishment of Konoha. It was arguably the oldest building in Konoha.
This is where the missions are usually distributed.
Third Hokage was a little nervous as he walked on the passage leading to the main gate of his office.
Even if he is Hokage of Hidden Leaf Village, there is some time to compromise.
'It was confirmed a few years ago. Today, it happened again.'
The Third Hokage said with a slight smile to Anbu who had been guarding the corridor: "How about it, are you not tired?"
The ANBU immediately straightened up and said, "Lord Hokage, thank you for your concern, I am not tired!"
Hiruzen patted his shoulders: "Relax a little, don't be so nervous."
"Has our consultant arrived?" Hiruzen asked.
The ninja replied. "He is already in the office."
Hiruzen nodded, waved friendly to the guard.
Hiruzzen walked slowly. He did not know what Konoha would face this time.
Based on the intuition he has cultivated over the years, he thinks that this time, it was different from the previous small frictions.
His childhood was spent during the late stages of the Warring States.
He experienced the First Shinobi War.
After the death of Second Hokage in the Kumo ambush, he was temporarily designated as the Hokage.
At that time, Konoha's situation was very bad. Each clan had great numbers, Konoha's internal trouble and outside aggression.
Those who had not completely grown old and came out of the Warring States fought for the Hokage's position.
However, he immediately assumed the important task assigned to him by the Second Hokage.
He matured faster than anyone could imagine.
To this day, he is still as trusted as he was in the past.
However, now the entire Ninja World is surging with conflicts again. A war may break out in a moment.
Third Hokage pushed the door open in front of him. He saw his friends, Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu and his customer, Shimura Danzo already inside.
"You are here." Hiruzen walked into his office and sat down in Hokage's seat.
"Homura, how is the situation with Land-of-Grass?" Hiruzen asked.
"According to the news, both sides are restraining for now, but there are occasional frictions."
Mitokado Homura immediately took out a set of papers and handed them over to Hiruzen.
"That's good." Hiruzen quickly glanced at the information.
He breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the situation does not continue to escalate, it would be the best for everyone.
"It's just that Hanzo has claimed that Ninja Villages have captured their Rain Ninja. Now they are asking Ninja Villages to hand over the captured ninja." Mitokado Homura said.
"The group of ninjas in Ninja Village are like grass waving in the wind. Such a group of rats who please other countries everywhere. How can they have the courage to provoke Hanzo." Danzo said with disdain.
"Then what exactly does Hanzo want to do? He has the guts to dare to challenge the Five Great Countries and start a war?" Utatane Koharu wondered.
"That is something he dares not do. Hanzo has a high self-esteem. He has always felt that his strength is comparable to or even stronger than the Five Great Countries."
"He has long felt that the little Hidden Rain Village is no longer worthy of his strength. He has been looking for the opportunity to make Land-of-Rain the sixth Great Country." Danzo sneered.
"Yes. Moreover, the reason he used this time, we have no part in it."
"Although we are in a Great Country, we take everybody together. Peace is hard to come by. We cannot provoke disputes at will." Hiruzen sighed.
"Hiruzen, you are too kind for the good. Hanzo pointed the finger at the Land-of-Grass. They are our vassals! Our Konoha is the strongest village. It is easy to be underestimated by other countries if we do nothing." Danzo retorted.
Hiruzen was silent.
'It has been many years since the First Shinobi War. Countries have been recuperating for many years and they have plenty of troops.'
'What Danzo said is not unreasonable. The countries have long coveted the prosperous land of the Land of Fire.'
"Okay. That's it. Homura, you continue to send ninjas to the Land-of-Rain to get Hanzo to negotiate, put some pressure on him..." Hiruzen said.
"Koharu, you go and contact Kazekage. Just tell him that I want to talk to him about the alliance."
"Danzo, you continue to send Root's ninja to the border."
Hiruzen rubbed his temple after giving out the orders.
The office was silent for a while.
"Hiruzen, what about the old fox, Uchiha Fuzami? Why did you..." Shimura Danzo asked suddenly, narrowing his eyes.
"Nothing, it was about Tatsumi." Hiruzen answered faintly.
"Son of Kagami! What happened?" Utatane Koharu stood up and looked at Hiruzen.
"It's okay, it's okay. That little kid is very talented. He just talked about who his Jonin sensei would be after graduation." (If someone does not remember why, read chapter 31 again)
"It was decided not a long time ago that Tsunade will lead his team." Koharu's eyes narrowed.
"Fuzami wants to let Tatsumi graduate, let a Jonin of Uchiha Clan be his Jonin Teacher." Hiruzen said.
"hmph, wishful thinking. How could the son of Kagami be given to the Uchiha Clan? All these years, he has been kept out of the Uchiha Clan."
"Now he finds his talent so now he wants to bring Tatsumi in the clan? How can there be such a ba*****?" Utatane Koharu shook head and said.
"However, Fuzami's attitude is very firm! Tatsumi's surname is Uchiha anyway, we cannot control it too much. He said Uchiha Clan's Sharingan is only known to Uchiha people."
"Uchiha's Jonin is better for Tatsumi's growth. I can't refute this reason at all." Hiruzen helplessly said.
"No! I don't agree to it. Tsunade's Medical-Ninjutsu is excellent. If something goes wrong with Tatsumi's mission, he can get treatment in time." Utatane Koharu said.
"No. For his safety, I think he should be put in Root. If he stays in front of my eyes, I will be able to take care of him. When required, I can personally train him." Danzo looked at Utatane Koharu expressionlessly.
Utatane Koharu broke the table in front of her.
The people present were suddenly startled.
After all, they had been teammates with Koharu for several decades.
In their impression, Koharu has always been a quiet and intelligent female ninja.
She has always been the joint of their team of six.
She is the only one who inherits the rationality of Second Hokage among these people.
So, they rarely see Utatane Koharu angry.
"Danzo! Don't think I don't know what you are thinking! We are friends and teammates, so I don't want to care about what you do in Root. But, you want to Kagami's son? I won't let it happen."
Danzo became silent. He pulled his neckline. He felt an angry.
"Kagami is dead. He has been dead for many years. I know you treated him back then..." Danzo suddenly broke out.
Utatane Koharu grabbed Danzo by his neckline.
"Shut up! I don't want to hear these words anymore. My business with him has nothing to do with you! If I hear these words again, I will kill you. You know, I can actually do it"
......
T/N- Woah, I don't remember Koharu being like this. Anyways, I am busy tomorrow so, no chap.
