Just as Aoba had guessed, the purpose of Kumogakure's envoy coming to Konoha this time was not just for Byakugan.
Their zero sub-mission was to get rid of the mysterious Wood Release Ninja at all costs!
Even if they had to start a war again, they would not hesitate!
It could be seen how serious Kumogakure was afraid of Wood Release Ninja.
Next was to get Byakugan and Sharingan and bring them back to the village.
Even Byakugan was more important than Sharingan. It was not that Kumogakure did not know what was good for him, but they had suffered too much in the war with Konoha!
The sneak attack had not been successful for many times, and it was discovered early every time.
Most of their arrangements were seen through by Byakugan of the Hyuga Clan with a light glance.
It was a terrible thing to lose the initiative in every battle. If he had not experienced it, he really did not understand the pain of Kumogakure!
If not for the fact that the commander of the frontline, Dodai, had spared no effort to encircle and kill Konoha's reconnaissance unit, and at the cost of giving up the front line in exchange for a large number of casualties from Konoha's reconnaissance unit, this war might have ended long ago.
This was also the important reason why when Mikawa was on the front line, Hyuga's clansmen were so scarce, and the reconnaissance unit had so little manpower.
Therefore, Kumogakure was no longer drooling over Byakugan of Hyuga Clan, but a kind of obsession!
He had to get it!
This could be seen from the five times that Kumogakure had attacked Hinata in the original work.
As for why Hinata was always the one who got injured.
Don't ask!
The question was that Hinata looked weak and easy to bully.
And Sharingan's question was because of Shisui.
As the only member of the Uchiha Clan in this war, the strength displayed by Shisui completely shocked Kumogakure.
Especially that giant condensed from chakra, it was actually able to directly confront Bijuu, this was amazing!
Therefore, Kumogakure, who hadn't paid much attention to him before, had also included Sharingan into the target this time.
As for the last Shinomiya Aoba.
Kumogakure's people didn't covet his body at all. They simply wanted to kill him!
The little bit of love and hatred between the two sides no longer spoke. In any case, they understood everything.
......
The night of 'peace' passed just like that, and the calm before the storm immediately ended.
In the conference room, a 'nobody' took the position of the original leader of the envoy group and took the lead to question the Hokage.
"Hokag-sama, the time you wanted to know the truth has already passed. Now, you should give us an explanation, right? Don't die so mysteriously in Konoha's hands, don't you think so?" He asked.
Although his words made people unable to find fault with him, this aggressive tone was not as respectful as he said.
"I said that your leader took advantage of the night to kidnap the daughter of the head of our Hyuga Clan. After being discovered, he still did not surrender. In the process of resisting the arrest, he was killed by the head of the Hyuga Clan. How is it? Are you satisfied?"
Sarutobi's calm attitude made Kumogakure a little shocked and unexpected.
They had been sending people to calm their emotions last night, but how could it be that after one night, they seemed to have changed.
Could it be that Konoha really had the courage to start a war with Kumogakure?
The real leader of the envoy was also the current leader. He eased his tone and said, "Obviously, we are not satisfied. As far as I know, our leader has always had a good reputation. It is impossible for him to do such a thing. Moreover, our leader's bones are still cold, and we do not know what the truth is. Do you want to believe what a murderer said?"
"If the Hokage can't give us Kumogakure a satisfactory explanation, then this peace agreement is not worth signing!"
Hearing this guy's threat, the two high-level consultants first showed anger, and then they became worried.
However, Sarutobi seemed to have expected this and calmly asked, "Then what kind of explanation will satisfy you?"
Was he going to compromise?
The current leader was delighted and thought to himself, "That was close. I was almost fooled by the other party."
That was true. Since Konoha was able to continuously give in when he had the advantage, it was normal for him to continue to give in now.
It had to be said that Sarutobi was indeed nothing in the eyes of Kumogakure.
In any case, if they were in the same position, they would definitely not be able to compromise!
Even the two high-level consultants thought that Sarutobi was thinking about the big picture and was ready to meet Kumogakure's request. This made them very 'gratified', and at the same time, they were also very aggrieved. In short, their expressions were complicated.
"Our request is to ask the Hokage-sama to hand over the murderer and let us take him back to the village. It can also be considered an explanation."
When the current leader confidently said this 'insignificant' request, Sarutobi also smiled.
"If you don't hand it over, Kumogakure will continue to fight with our Konoha, right? Can you be the lord?"
The current leader's confident smile instantly froze on his face, but at this time, he had no choice but to pretend to be confident and nod, "We, Kumogakure, must seek justice for the dead. If the Hokage is like this to protect the murderer, then there is no need to talk about it anymore. We will immediately return to the village and bring the letter of challenge from the Hokage!"
"Hiruzen!"
The two high-level consultants looked at each other in confusion.
But this time, Sarutobi did not retreat. Instead, he stared at the other party coldly. After making the other party unable to sit still, he suddenly smiled and said, "It's just a joke. However, I have prepared another gift here as a 'deal'. I believe that you will be very' satisfied 'after reading it."
As he spoke, Sarutobi took out a stack of photos and threw them directly at the other party's confused face!
To be honest, this action was quite humiliating.
However, Kumogakure and the others in the conference room did not have the time to be angry over such a small matter.
Because, their cold sweat was flowing down!
"This is impossible! Fake, all of them are fake!"
After the current leader hurriedly finished reading the 'high and clear sets' in front of him, he immediately lost his composure and shouted.
He had secretly arranged this matter, so how could someone be squatting there in advance to take photos?
Who leaked the news?
But if the other party already knew, why would he kill their leader?
This simply did not make sense!
Was it a coincidence?
That was too much of a coincidence!
Seeing the other party lose his composure because of a stack of photos, Sarutobi was secretly pleased. It must be known that when Aoba sent these photos last night, he was also furious!
If there was no evidence, for the sake of the overall situation, he might choose to sacrifice Hyuga Hiashi.
But the evidence was right in front of his eyes. If he was led by the nose by Kumogakure's people again and sacrificed himself in exchange for temporary peace, how could he convince the public?
Hyuga Clan probably wouldn't agree to the first one!
