Chapter 108 Rock Hidden

With his newly acquired abilities, Shinichi went to ask Kushina for advice.

But in the next month, as Shinichi continued to learn from Kushina, the entire ninja world was awakened by something.

Iwagakure's rebuke to Konoha has arrived.

Sure enough, the death of the four Iwagakure ninjas was ultimately attributed to the Minato squad. Iwagakure was furious about this. They actually had quite a few jounin, but no matter how many they had, they would not die like this. They died just a while ago. Six, and now four more are dead. If this rate continues, all Iwagakure jounin will be dead within a few years.

Therefore, Iwagakure was furious about the death of Jonin in a short period of time.

This time, Iwagakure obviously didn't intend to argue with Konoha, and just got serious.

To put it bluntly, Iwagakure knew that Konoha would not hand over an elite jounin like Namikaze Minato, and Iwagakure was willing to step back. However, the three genin of Minato's class must be handed over to Iwagakure for execution.

This means everyone takes a step back. Iwagakure no longer demands that all Minato squad be handed over, and Konoha no longer refuses to hand over anyone.

Just sacrificing three genin can effectively avoid the collision between the two great powers.

Politics is nothing but compromise.

When things developed to this point, other big countries that were watching the situation became disappointed and looked away.

Because Iwagakure's skills are so beautiful, or in other words, Iwagakure has compromised too much. If you don't want the lives of the elite jounin, but only the lives of the three genin, I won't have any trouble with you.

This condition, in the eyes of many politicians, is almost equivalent to Iwagakure bowing his head to Konoha.

After all, what do the lives of three genin count?Nothing!

It’s just a fart!Worse than anything!

The Raikage from the east even mocked Iwagakure because of this incident and said, "We Kumogakure is sending three genin to Iwagakure. I wonder if Iwagakure is willing to send ten jonin to us?".

It can be seen that in the eyes of many people, Iwagakure has indeed bowed to Konoha. The lives of ten jounin have been lost. I only want you to take the lives of three genin as compensation. Is this humble enough? !

Under such superior conditions that could not be more superior, it is naturally the best for Konoha to agree.

Regarding this matter, Danzo voted in favor without hesitation at the high-level meeting in Konoha.

Again, what are three genin?None of that!

dead, also dead!

Even if you feel sorry for him, Danzo will lose.

Koharu Koharu and Mito Monobu, who were present because of disputes between the two major powers, also voted in favor.

Everyone was talking about how to calm down Iwagakure's anger. As for the lives of the three genin and their thoughts, sorry, not a word was mentioned.

Among the entire top management of Konoha, the third generation was the only one who did not express his position. He did not want to send his people out, but he also did not want to get into trouble with Iwagakure, which would lead to the consequences of the war.

Danzo, seeing this situation, silently exited the meeting.

It has become a common practice that when the third generation cannot make a clear decision on something that is beneficial to Konoha, Danzo will do it for the third generation if possible.

Roots, take action!

This time, the balance between the Third Generation and Danzo was not broken. On the contrary, this time, it was proof that the Third Generation and Danzo still had the ability to reconcile each other.

If you are not the person involved, then just imagine, is it cost-effective to exchange the lives of three genin for ten jounin?

What a deal!Couldn't be a better deal!It’s a huge profit!

Danzo's actions were absolutely correct.

Genbu quickly encountered Shinichi who was practicing in the training ground.

They wanted to take Shinichi away, but no matter what, Shinichi still had Kushina by his side. He had no choice but to be beaten back by Kushina.

The next day, Konoha's top management held a meeting again. This time, one more person attended the meeting.

——Hatake Sakumo.

Is Sakumo qualified to participate in Konoha's high-level meetings?That’s so qualified!

In this era, Konoha White Fang and the Ninjutsu Professor are the two strongest people on the surface in Konoha!

He is the undoubted pillar of Konoha!

In this meeting, Danzo, Koharu, and Men Yan still believed that Shinichi, Obito, and Lin could be handed over to Iwagakure to calm Iwagakure's anger.

But Hatake Sakumo voted against handing over Shinichi and the three of them.

After Hatake Sakumo finished speaking, Danzo immediately spoke with a gloomy face.

"Sakumo! I know you are on good terms with that Uzumaki Shinichi, but right now, we are considering the interests of Konoha! Everything is for Konoha! Don't let your personal feelings affect your decision!"

Hatake Sakumo shook his head and spoke.

"I admit that my decision is indeed influenced by personal feelings, but some of the reasons do exist. Master Danzo, please listen to me. If ten jonins die in Konoha, you will only Are you asking for the lives of three genin?"

Danzo was slightly startled, thought of something, and answered forcefully.

"Of course it's impossible! Ten jounin exchanged the lives of three genin. What a joke! But, Sakumo, you have to consider the differences between countries. From our standpoint, if we lose ten jounin, Of course, it is impossible to just ask Iwagakure for three genin and end it, but from Iwagakure's perspective, it is possible, because although we Konoha and Iwagakure do not dare to start a war, there are reasons why we do not dare to start a war. But it's different.

We in Konoha don't dare to go to war because we are afraid that other countries will raid our Konoha, but they Iwagakure don't dare to go to war because they are purely afraid of us in Konoha!They can't beat us Konoha, that's all!The two positions are different, and it is possible for them to bow to us! "

Hatake Sakumo nodded. Danzo was right. Although Konoha and Iwagakure did not dare to start a war, generally speaking, Konoha is the stronger side and Iwagakure is the weak side. This is not wrong after all. of.

It is unlikely that the strong side will bow to the weak side, but it is very possible for the weak side to bow to the strong side.

But Hatake Sakumo didn't agree with this either. He smiled slightly and spoke.

"Danzo-sama, I have been performing missions outside before. However, you must not know what my mission is. In fact, my mission is to explore the recent movements of Iwagakure. After the Second Ninja War, , Iwagakure is the most united, so they recover the fastest, and they are the first to regain their combat effectiveness. If their Iwagakure hadn't been blocked by our Konoha in the west and couldn't get through, they would have expanded a lot."

Iwagakure's position was actually quite bad. If he wanted to fight, he could only attack from two directions, one was Konoha in the east, and the other was Sunagakure in the southeast.

Of these two directions, Konoha is the strongest among the five major countries. Unless there is a ninja war and everyone fights against Konoha together, Iwagakure will not dare to fight against Konoha at all.

As for Sunagakure, they are not strong, but the problem is that geographically, Sunagakure is absolutely easy to defend and difficult to attack. They are surrounded by desert. If you attack him, you won't know it before you get in front of him. How many people will die? Therefore, attacking Sunagakure requires a lot of manpower and material resources. But the problem is, if you spend a lot of manpower and material resources, then Konoha is vegetarian?You are almost dying of illness, Konoha will definitely be willing to give you a patch of wounds so that you can die in peace.

Therefore, Iwagakure was unable to defeat Konoha, and it was too expensive to defeat Sunagakure. He was afraid of being killed by Konoha's surprise attack. This resulted in Iwagakure being completely trapped in the west, unable to move or expand.

Hatake Sakumo continued.

"Danzo-sama, things you can't get are sometimes the most tempting. Among the five great ninja villages, the one with the greatest desire for expansion is naturally Kumogakure, but the one who came down from Kumogakure is undoubtedly Iwagakure. Kumogakure There are some larger small countries between us, and there is Kirikage next to it, so don’t worry too much, but Iwagakure is different. Between us and Iwagakure, except for the demigod and half-hidden Amegakure, there is no other country. They are all small and weak countries. Once Iwagakure wants to expand, its first target must be our Konoha!

In order to be on guard against Iwagakure, Lord Hokage ordered me to go and investigate Iwagakure's recent movements. I have not completely completed this task, but I have more or less detected some things, such as - Iwagakure, which has been preparing its military recently. They definitely intend to start a war!So, if we negotiate peace with them at this time, will we give them time to develop?You have to think carefully about this. "

After Hatake Sakumo finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.

They knew that Hatake Sakumo's character was modest, cautious, and would not lie.
