Chapter 33 - Meeting with the Daimyo part 2

The council room was pretty much packed with all the clan heads sitting on the right side with the hyuga , aburame,inzuka ,akimichi, yamanaka,,nara ,kurama,shimura ,sarutobi respectively. On the left side the civilian council was seated with two new elders who were Kousuke the eternal genin and another elder was a veteran from the second shinobi war.

The tension could be felt within the room and suddenly the door opened and in came the Daimyo along with his guards and a teenage boy around twelve years old along with him.

I was behind the Daimyo as we walked through the door. My heart was beating like drums as i saw all of the figures looking at me. The Daimyo coughed lightly and sat down . I stood behind him . All were Guessing my identity and looking at me like a animal in zoo. The Daimyo started talking about the happenings of the village and it's consequences.

After talking for sometime he turned serious and a copy of a file was given to everyone present within the room including the anbu commander. All were confused but upon insisting of the Daimyo everyone opened their file and started reading.

Shock,silence and then shouting and then curses were all heard and then all hell broke loose. Hiruzen froze upon reading the file and was pretty much fidgeting only years of experience of shinobi kept his composure.

The Daimyo looked at him and asked for an explanation which he replied with it was all for the village. Their was cry of indignation throughout the crowd. Daimyo asked for the input of the Nara clan regarding the situation. Upon seeing the serious nara it made everyone tense as it was a grave matter now. Shukaku asked for a new hokage to be installed soon and start to build up our forces and start showing our strengths as soon as possible as the village was looking pretty weak.

All the other clan head agreed with the situation and the candidates were told to be brought forward. Jiraiya was reverse summoned in konoha who started his introduction dance but midway through it stopped seeing the grave faces. Upon hearing about the happenings,he looked disgusted and angry, an expression which was rarely seen on the sannin.

After rounds of talking back and forth Shukaku, jiraiya and Tsunade were brought forward with jiraiya winning it who declined after the vote was over. He insisted for Tsunade to be the hokage which would bolster their strength in total and everybody looked happy and agreed.

The Daimyo stood up and looked towards me and I went forward and took a deep breath to introduce myself. It was a great step on my road in this life and i intended to be my best on it.
