Chapter 172 With less power comes less responsibility

  Chapter 172 Less power comes less responsibility

  What did the daimyo hear, why did he suddenly turn pale with fright?

   “What’s going on, daimyo-sama?” Jilai also felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly asked.

   Plop.

  Daimyo sat back on the chair and answered Jiraiya in a trembling voice:

   “The four kingdoms of wind, earth, water, and rain are following closely behind the kingdom of thunder, and together they declare war on the kingdom of fire…”

What? !

  Hearing the news, everyone in Konoha, like Daimyo, was extremely shocked.

  If the only enemy is Yunying Village, Konoha may be able to deal with it, but if the whole ninja world goes together…

Why?

  Why all of a sudden, various countries in the ninja world declared war on the Nation of Fire and Konoha at the same time?

   Is it because of this civil turmoil in Konoha?

   Speaking of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Konoha also appeared once six years ago, which also caused the deaths of both the Fourth Hokage and Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

  Under such circumstances, relying on Konoha’s strong strength and background, it still deterred the major ninja villages and prevented them from invading.

   This time the civil strife.

  Different from last time, it caused the Uchiha clan to flee from Konoha.

  However, just because the Uchiha clan is missing, the major ninja villages feel that Konoha is no good, and even attack Konoha in groups?

  Uchiha, is it that important?

  When everyone was too shocked to speak, the conference room was silent.

   “It seems that the neighbors around the Kingdom of Fire have a tacit understanding.” He said to himself.

  The Land of Fire not only has a vast territory, but also has a superior geographical environment. It occupies the most fertile plain land in the entire ninja world, as well as vast forests and numerous rivers.

  The surrounding countries are either deserts or Gobi, mountains or islands. Compared with the country of fire, they are not a star and a half behind.

  All major countries understand that there is nothing to grab each other’s territory, so it is better to attack the Nation of Fire together.

  The huge land of fire is enough for everyone to carve up and feed everyone.

  So.

  This time, Konoha is about to be besieged by the major ninja villages again, oh, this time there is an extra rain hidden.

   It took a while.

  Daimyo finally regained some composure. He asked Jiraiya through the TV screen:

   “Does Konoha have the confidence to win this war? Konoha has won every ninja war in the past, right? Konoha is the strongest ninja village, right?”

  As the daimyo said.

  Every time a ninja war breaks out, Konoha is almost always facing a one-to-many situation.

  Especially during the third Ninja World War, Konoha fought on four fronts, at the same time fighting against the Four Great Ninja Villages, and finally won.

  The title of the most ninja village in the ninja world is well-deserved.

  But now, facing the daimyo’s expectations, Jiraiya is showing embarrassment.

  Konoha, who used to be in the sky, may have the confidence to say one hit four.

   Today’s Konoha, why?

  Even if the Four Great Ninja Villages are left aside.

   Even Yuyin tore up the peace agreement signed not long ago and started a war with Konoha. From Jiraiya’s point of view, Nagato and Akatsuki’s strength is not inferior to any Dai Ninja Village.

   That is to say.

  This time, Konoha is actually facing the siege of the five great ninja villages, and the situation can be said to be unprecedentedly severe.

  Under such circumstances, he really has no confidence in leading Konoha to win this war with Jiraiya.

  Thus, as a quasi-Fifth Hokage, Jiraiya thought about it, and finally he could only say to the daimyo:

   “Konoha will do everything possible to fight this war, and I will fight to the last moment with the determination to sacrifice my life.”

However.

   Daimyo was obviously very dissatisfied with Jiraiya’s answer.

   “What do you mean by doing your best? As Hokage, is this the answer you gave me?”

  He got a little anxious, raised his voice and roared at Jiraiya.

   In this ninja world war, once Konoha loses, the Nation of Fire will also lose. At that time, the compensation for land cession will be light, and it is not impossible for the country to die.

  So how could the daimyo not panic.

at this time.

  The daimyo suddenly noticed the calm Uchiha off, so Dang even asked the latter as if grasping at a straw:

   “Uchiha Duan, you are the assistant of Hokage. Is there any way? I heard that your strength is not inferior to that of the Fourth Megumi Fengshuimon. Can you defeat the Ninja Alliance like him back then?”

   The reason why Konoha was able to win the third ninja world war, Namikaze Minato, who rose as a civilian ninja, definitely contributed the most.

  At the beginning.

  The fourth generation used the flying thunder **** technique and spiral pill to cross the battlefield, successively defeated Yunyin’s Abby combination, instantly killed dozens of Iwagakushi ninjas, and blew up the Kannabi bridge… and made countless contributions.

  The name of the yellow flash resounded throughout the battlefield, deterring the Four Great Ninja Villages, making countless enemies frightened by the news, and ran away when they saw him.

   It can be said that the fourth generation turned the tide on his own and became a hero of that era.

   Back to the present.

  Daimyo also hopes that Uchiha can be like Namikaze Minato, using powerful strength to defeat the enemies who came to invade the country of fire.

   “Well…”

   Hearing the words, he rubbed his chin, as if he was thinking seriously.

  For a moment, not only the daimyo, but all the Konoha ninjas in the meeting room also cast their eyes on Duan.

  Although he doesn’t want to admit it, it is an indisputable fact that Duan’s strength is unfathomable.

  If it was him, maybe he could really become the second Namikaze Minato.

   “Break, please.”

  Three generations flashed their eyes, and followed the daimyo to make a statement, trying to put the broken frame up.

  Xiaochun and Yan also agreed one after another.

  Daimyo Jianjuan was still hesitating, but with a flash of his eyes, he said directly:

   “As long as you can do what the fourth generation did back then, I will let Jiraiya step down, and you will be the Hokage.”

  As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

   But no one refuted.

   On the one hand, this is the opinion of the daimyo.

  On the other hand, everyone realized that at this time, repelling the enemy is the most important thing.

   Otherwise, when Konoha is finished, what is the point of who is Hokage?

  After listening to Daimyo’s words, Jiraiya took a deep breath, and took the initiative to express his position to Duan, saying sincerely:

   “Duan, as long as you are willing to fight for Konoha and the Kingdom of Fire, I will be the first to support you as Hokage.”

   After finishing speaking, everyone waited for a continuous answer.

  Facing the expectations of a room full of people.

“well.”

   Duan sighed, shook his head and said, “Sorry. I think we should surrender as soon as possible.”

  Surrender?

  The two words that came out of his mouth undoubtedly poured cold water on the heads of everyone present.

   “What, surrender again?”

  Three generations even blurted out.

  Why do you say again?

  Because Konoha and Ugakure broke out in a war last time, Duan advocated surrender at a high-level meeting. He was extremely afraid of Akatsuki’s leader, Nagato, and did not dare to fight on the battlefield.

  Xiaochun and Yan came back to their senses, frowned tightly, and criticized Duan one after another:

   “Uchiha Duan, many villagers say that you only know how to mess around. It seems that you have not been wronged at all.”

   “Cruel at home and tolerant to outside, is this the skill of your assistant Hokage?”

  Daimyo was also annoyed, and roared again:

   “I spent so much money to support you just to make you Konoha ninjas surrender to the enemy? Uchiha Duan, I will give you another chance to take back what you just said!”

However.

   Judgment is unrepentant, and continues to badmouth its own side:

   “Everyone, you don’t…haven’t seen the situation clearly?

  It’s just a Yuyin village, and Konoha may not be able to deal with it. Have you forgotten so quickly that the 3,000 troops sent by the third generation were slaughtered by the opponent overnight?

   Not to mention, in addition to Yuyin, there are also coalition forces from the four major ninja villages, and the combined number is several times that of Konoha.

   They attacked from all directions at the same time, and it was impossible for Konoha to stop them.

  So I think it is better to surrender early, and use land cession to seek compensation to avoid unnecessary casualties. Otherwise, it’s better to disband Konoha and run for their lives. ”

“shut up!”

  Daimyo shouted angrily, determined that Duan was trying to confuse the public and disturb the morale of the army, and immediately ordered angrily, “Uchiha Duan, I want to remove you from the post of Assistant Hokage, get out immediately!”

did not expect.

“OK.”

  Duan immediately agreed readily, and said, “I really don’t have the ability to serve as Hokage’s assistant.

   As the saying goes, with less power comes less responsibility. Now that I have become a commoner, I have no responsibilities, and the heavy responsibility of protecting Konoha is left to everyone present.

Hahaha! ”

  Amid a burst of hearty laughter, Duan turned around and strode out of the meeting room.

   Only Konoha and the others were left, looking at each other again.

   “Prepare for me immediately and mobilize all the ninjas in Konoha! No matter men, women, old or young, send them to the frontline battlefield, and we must resist the ninja coalition forces until the last one dies!”

  The daimyo roared angrily, and ordered Konoha to die.

   As soon as the voice fell, and I didn’t wait for Zilai to respond, a burst of snowflakes appeared on the TV screen, and the picture was cut off.

  In the conference room, there was silence for a while, and no one spoke.

  The air pressure was extremely low, and it was so stuffy that people couldn’t breathe.

at last.

  Jiraiya, the quasi-Hokage, said solemnly:

   “Everyone has heard what Daimyo-sama said. This will be a life-and-death battle for Konoha. We have no choice but to fight the enemy to the end. Please be prepared.”

   Immediately afterwards, the third generation also made a speech to boost morale:

   “Everyone, don’t forget that in every ninja war in the past, no matter how severe the situation was, Konoha was the one who had the last laugh.

  Ninja villages actually thought that Konoha would become vulnerable without the Uchiha clan. We need to let them know that this idea is completely wrong! ”

  Xiaochun and Yan also said:

   “Although the battlefield is dangerous, it is also a good opportunity to make contributions. Think of Konoha Sannin during World War II and Namikaze Minato during World War III. As long as you work hard to fight for the village, the next Konoha hero is among you!”

   Embarrassingly so.

   This time, facing the mobilization of Konoha’s senior management, the reaction of everyone was not enthusiastic at all, only blinking eyes and whispering.

   It sounds nice, but isn’t it actually letting them be cannon fodder?

   Everyone is not stupid.

   After a while.

  The patriarchs of the pig, deer and butterfly clan looked at each other and turned to leave first.

“let’s go.”

   Hyuga Hyuzu also said in a deep voice, and the Hyuga clan walked out of the meeting room expressionlessly.

  Other small and medium-sized ninjas also had their own thoughts and left one after another.

   Only the third generation and other high-level officials were left, with a look of astonishment on their faces.

  A top-down centrifuged Konoha.

  The ending is already doomed.

  When Duan walked out of the Hokage building, he found thousands of Konoha ninjas and civilians gathered nearby and did not disperse.

  These people originally came to witness that Jiraiya also became the Fifth Hokage, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement.

   At this time, the crowd has begun to discuss.

   “Uchiha broke out.”

  Until someone yelled, countless eyes immediately focused on Duan.

   “Ahem.”

  Cuttingly cleared his throat, looked at the Konoha people in front of him, and said to them with a smile, “I tell you a good news, I was dismissed by the daimyo, and I will no longer serve as the assistant of Hokage.”

Really?

  Hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they all showed joy.

   “Uchiha Duan is used to being arrogant. He must have offended the daimyo before he was dismissed. He deserves it.”

   “Master Daimyo is really wise!”

   “However, why is Uchiha still laughing, saying that this is good news, isn’t he dismissed?”

   Various voices came from the crowd.

   “Oh, by the way, there is one more bad news.”

   Duan made a gesture to signal for everyone to be quiet, and then said, “The Four Great Ninja Villages together with Yuyin have declared war on Konoha, the army is already overwhelming. Everyone, get ready early and go to the front line to die.”

   Finished speaking.

   In the midst of silence, strode away.

   A few seconds later, the crowd in front of the Hokage Building exploded with a buzzing sound.

   Afterwards, panic and fear hung on the faces of everyone, and the news quickly spread throughout Muye Village.

  Uchiha clan land.

   Duan returned to the meat reform department, and found that Tsunade had finished sleeping and returned to the cage, and was practicing Yin Escape Illusion in the dojo.

   “Why is there so much noise outside, what happened?”

  When she saw Duanhou, she stopped and walked over, asking with a look of surprise.

   Decide to tell the truth.

“how so…”

   Tsunade muttered to himself when he heard the words, but also looked shocked.

  She had thought that this civil strife in Konoha might attract the coveted eyes of other ninja villages.

  But what she didn’t expect was that the Four Great Ninja Villages and Yu Yin would declare war on Konoha together, and there was a tendency to carve up Konoha.

   This time, Konoha is really in danger.

   “Are you going to join the war?” Duan suddenly asked.

   Tsunade was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

  Although she wants to stay away from disputes, when the ninja coalition forces arrive at the door of Konoha’s house, she may not be able to stay out of it and will have to fight.

“how about you?”

   She looked at it and asked a question, and immediately realized that her question was redundant.

  After all, with Tsunade’s understanding of Duan, he was asked to shed blood for Konoha, unless he saw a ghost.

   Not to mention, he is now dismissed from the position of Assistant Hokage by the daimyo, and he doesn’t even have the obligation to fight for Konoha.

   Sure enough.

   “Me? Of course I want to live my own life well. It is enough to guard this building. As for the future of Konoha, I will leave it to the third generation and Jiraiya. You have to trust the wisdom of the superior.”

   said with a broken smile.

   Next.

   Under Tsunade’s surprised gaze, Duan suddenly took out a glass container containing organ preservation fluid, and saw an eyeball floating inside.

   That’s Obito’s left eye.

   “Stop other things first, I want to ask you to transplant this eye to me.”

  Duan said while handing the container to Tsunade, and raised his left hand.

   Show your palm.
