Chapter 179 Hospital Examination
Sarutobi Clan Land
"Minato, what took you so long? What happened?"
Nara Shikaku and his group waited for a long time before they saw Minato Namikaze. However, he suddenly discovered that the usually cheerful and sunny Minato Namikaze was very depressed today, as if he had suffered a great blow and had lost all his energy. Jiraiya
asked worriedly, "Minato, what's wrong with you?" They had only been separated for a while, why did Minato become like this?
In his impression, Namikaze Minato was a ninja with a tough character and outstanding strength, almost the most perfect, and almost nothing could hit him; but now he was like this, as if his will was crushed.
"Senior Shikaku, what is the real situation of the ballot?"
Namikaze Minato suddenly looked up at Nara Shikaku, his eyes even filled with deep unwillingness.
"I miscalculated, Minato, this is my fault."
Nara Shikaku saw Minato Namikaze's expression and guessed that he might have known about the votes for the Fourth Hokage. He apologized and said
, "They might have noticed our private actions and responded to them. I thought this was Minato's last resort, but..."
"It's not your fault, Senior Shikaku..." After hearing this, Minato Namikaze smiled bitterly, and even spoke weakly: "I didn't do enough, it has nothing to do with Senior Shikaku."
After hearing the conversation between the two, Jiraiya was still confused. He only knew that Minato's votes were very low, but this should be considered normal.
To be honest, even if he participated in the Fourth Hokage election, he could not be a match for Tsunade and Orochimaru's connections, not to mention that Minato had more than 40 people voting for him.
"Lord Jiraiya, the only ones who voted for Minato were the ninjas of Ino-Shika-cho and Sarutobi, you and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire; the rest of the jonin didn't support Minato, they all cast their votes for Orochimaru."
Nara Shikaku hesitated for a while, but still told the cruel reality; the biggest contributor to the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, the yellow flash on the battlefield, when it came to the election for Hokage, no one chose him except the ninjas who invested in advance.
Namikaze Minato usually pays attention to the relationship with his fellow villagers, but it is because of this that he suffered such a heavy blow this time.
"What!? No one voted for Minato, what's going on, Shikaku?"
Jiraiya asked in disbelief. Minato got more than 40 votes, and apart from them, there were at least more than 30 people who voted for them. How could no one vote?
Then, Nara Shikaku explained. After Jiraiya heard it, he was furious and said, "What do these bastards think of the election of Hokage? And that Kahn actually bribed the village jonin with money, and they actually agreed."
Akimichi Choza comforted him and said, "More than half of Minato's votes were cast by the other party. It seems that they want to undermine your confidence. Minato, they are afraid of you, so they do this."
"No, this is playing, the other party will not be afraid of me at all."
Namikaze Minato closed his eyes and thought in his heart. He saw many reactions from Kahn, but the only thing he didn't have was fear; his yellow flash that made the enemy tremble in fear was not taken seriously by the other party at all.
Just as Kahn said, a ninja with no status and power, why would he attack the nobles of the Land of Fire?
As long as Namikaze Minato dared to take action, he would become a traitor, and all his ties with Konoha would be cut off; so after Kahn said that, Namikaze Minato found that he didn't even have the courage to resist.
While Minato Namikaze was sad, Jiraiya was thinking about Kahn.
One person gets 15 million ryo, and even if it is an S-level mission, he has to complete 15 missions. This is done without the village taking a cut. If he completes S-level missions from the village in exchange for rewards, one person has to take more than 30 S-level missions. If you count the team share and other expenses, a jonin may not be able to save this money in five or six years.
One hundred people is 1.5 billion, and two hundred people is 3 billion!
Others can see Kahn's wealth and generosity, but Jiraiya sees danger. This guy is in great danger. He is destroying the ninja system. Prophecy?
Jiraiya suddenly thought of the prophecy, and then he subconsciously brought Kahn into the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Kahn was the person in the prophecy who was incompatible with the ninja world. They were too similar.
"Minato, cheer up. If you give up after one failure, you will disappoint us."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice. Now they must be prepared. Before the Hokage succession ceremony, Orochimaru has not exercised the power of Hokage on a large scale. They must respond.
"Yes, I know, Hokage-sama."
Namikaze Minato said with a forced spirit, but what he was thinking in his heart, only he knew.
"Orochimaru has changed."
After everyone looked at him, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a while and then said, "He has changed so much that even I, his teacher, can't see him clearly. He lurks, waits, and gives you a fatal blow at the most critical moment. When he becomes Hokage, the ninjas of our four clans will definitely be targeted. We must make changes during this period before Orochimaru becomes Hokage."
"The clan members who become ninjas have no choice. They must obey the orders of the Hokage. Let's postpone the clan members from becoming ninjas for the time being."
Nara Shikaku knew that this trick would not work on Orochimaru. His purpose was to take care of the clan members. Otherwise, after becoming ninjas, they would have to obey the orders of the Hokage. At that time, they might die without knowing how they died.
"The Nara clan has a lot of businesses outside the Land of Fire. Next, I will let the clan members develop businesses outside the village to cover it up."
Yamanaka Inoichi and Nara Shikaku have been teammates for more than ten years. As soon as he opened his mouth, he knew what he was going to say. "The Yamanaka clan is the same. They can only lie dormant. Moreover, even if Orochimaru takes the position of Hokage, he will not attack us quickly. After all, he has to be cautious." "The Akimichi clan is the same."
In addition to these, Nara Shikaku also proposed many ways to deal with it, but he and Yamanaka Inoichi have the same idea. Even if Orochimaru becomes Hokage, he will not take action against them within half a year. They still have a long time.
The friendship between the Ino-Shika-Chou clan and the Sarutobi clan is very long. Before the village was founded, the four clans had formed a deep friendship; during the period when Sarutobi Hiruzen was the Hokage, the Ino-Shika-Chou clan also gained a lot of benefits. This kind of friendship cannot be separated.
Now they can only try their best to prevent Orochimaru from suppressing them. After all, both sides have almost torn their faces in this incident.
Nara Shikaku suddenly asked: "Third-generation Hokage, Elder Mitomon and Elder Utane." Although the two were born as civilian ninjas, they have been advisory elders for more than ten years. Now they have accumulated a lot of power under their command, and it will be a great help to win them over.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded in understanding and said, "I will talk to them, but Utaraino Koharu is not in a good condition."
Under pressure, he had to detain Utaraino Koharu in the interrogation class. If he didn't do this, he couldn't explain the affairs of the Konoha Finance Department.
This matter was very troublesome, and Sarutobi Hiruzen could only solve it quickly while most of the power in Konoha Village was still under his control.
Several people discussed for several hours, and even Namikaze Minato forced himself to ask some questions, and finally left the Sarutobi clan; but Jiraiya didn't say a word throughout the whole process. When he left Sarutobi Hiruzen's house, his expression suddenly became solemn, and then he jumped directly onto the house and left.
"Kakashi."
Nohara Rin found Kakashi in the agreed dumpling shop. Seeing his thoughtful expression, she couldn't help but ask, "Kakashi, what are you thinking about? By the way, what happened in today's meeting? Why do you look so weird?"
Today's Jonin meeting just ended, and the Daimyo has not left the village yet. As a result, the blockade is not really a blockade. At least all the Jonin and the ninja clan know about it, but the middle and lower-level ninjas are still not aware that the village has elected the Fourth Hokage.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking about when to send some living expenses to Obito's grandmother. Rin, don't ask about the Jonin meeting, otherwise someone will question you."
Kakashi reminded Nohara Rin that the matters of the Jonin meeting were confidential, and asking and leaking them at will would attract the Anbu, although the Anbu probably didn't have much time now.
"Okay, I won't ask. I will become a medical jonin in a while, and I will check you out then. Ten million ryo? Kakashi, where did you get it from?"
Nohara Rin was surprised when she saw the number on the passbook, and then she looked at it herself to make sure she was not mistaken.
"With this money, Obito's grandmother should be able to live a better life."
Kakashi did not answer Nohara Rin's question, and then handed the passbook to Nohara Rin and said to her: "Rin, I'll leave this to you. Someone will come to see me tonight..."
"Who?"
Nohara Rin asked with a fixed gaze. Kakashi has always been a loner in the village, and he rarely talks to people of the same level. How could someone suddenly come to see him, and there is this ten million, it can't be! ?
"Kakashi, that kind of thing is absolutely not allowed."
Nohara Rin reminded in a low voice. Thanks to Kahn's continuous delivery of novels to the ninja world, even Nohara Rin now knows some of the more famous novel elements.
"It's my father. He is a guardian ninja in the daimyo's mansion. He returned to Konoha today." Kakashi saw that Nohara Rin was thinking nonsense, so he explained and left. His father should be waiting for him in the izakaya now. If it weren't for Nohara Rin, he would have gone to chat with his father long ago. Nohara Rin
saw Kakashi was about to leave, and hurriedly reminded him: "I have made an appointment for an eye examination for you. Remember to come to Konoha Hospital tomorrow morning."
Nohara Rin didn't turn around and leave until she saw Kakashi waving his hand. But she had a headache afterwards. How should she explain such a large number as 10 million ryo to Obito's grandmother?
"Kushina, what are you doing?"
Kushina blushed and stretched out her fist to hit Kahn twice, then said shyly: "This is what Mikoto taught me. It can increase the chance of having a baby."
Kahn smiled helplessly: "There are some things that you don't have to listen to Mrs. Mikoto. This is just like the Rain Country asking the Wind Country for advice on flood control policies." After saying that, he suddenly thought that it was because Kushina was a fool that she fell into his arms step by step. However,
Kushina was still a little embarrassed and angry when she was ridiculed by Kahn, but now she really had no strength. She could only reluctantly pull out the pillow, and then hid in the quilt and said in a muffled voice: "Accompany me to the hospital tomorrow."
"Okay."
Kahn didn't hear Kushina's reply after answering. He looked down and found that Kushina had fallen asleep, so he used magic to clean her up, and then hugged Kushina to sleep.
It's late, sorry.
I will definitely do it four times tomorrow.
By the way, I ask for votes!
