The light of leaves

Chapter 318 The Justice Passerby

The next day, early in the morning.

"Danzo-sama, the Fourth Kazuhizhan-sama invites you to attend the meeting at the Hokage Building!" A Genbu ninja said respectfully as he half-kneeled on the ground.

"I see." Danzo responded calmly, and then asked, "How about what I asked you to do?"

"The public opinion of the entire Konoha is under your control!"

"very good!"

Danzo nodded in satisfaction and walked out of the ground calmly.

"Finally, it's the old man's turn to bask in the sun!"

……

On the street, some people are cleaning up the ruins left by yesterday, and some gather in groups to talk about yesterday's events.

Amidst these discussions, some "passers-by" voiced justice, "As a Hokage, you cannot resist threats when danger comes, or even hide secretly. That man is not worthy of being a Hokage at all!"

The surrounding crowd hesitated, "Hiding? No way? Hokage-sama was just held back by something?"

A righteous passer-by shouted, "Is there anything more important than saving the village?"

"This……"

"You don't know, do you? Before yesterday's turmoil, Lord Danzo predicted this possibility, but our Hokage-sama didn't pay attention to it at all, which led to the subsequent disaster!"

Fear breeds hatred. When they fell into despair last night, of course they hoped that Hokage-sama would save Konoha, but Hokage-sama didn't show up until the end, so of course they would be dissatisfied.

It was only later that Soseki came down like a god, temporarily extinguishing their dark thoughts.

Now, excited by these righteous passers-by, those hatreds are revived.

"That's right, that man doesn't deserve to be Hokage at all!"

"But, if he is not worthy to be Hokage, who else can become Hokage? Do you want the third generation to come back?"

At this time, passers-by made another suggestion.

"First of all, Hokage must be strong!"

"Secondly, Hokage must have a sense of responsibility, and must rescue everyone when they are in danger!"

"how to think……"

Someone clapped their hands excitedly, "No matter how you think about it, it should be Mr. Soseki!"

Now, the two passers-by were dumbfounded.

"Wait, Master Soseki is indeed a good candidate, but he has too close a relationship with Namikaze Minato!"

"And he has a good relationship with the Uchiha clan. Don't forget, the Gouyu that appeared in Kyuubi's eyes last night is the pattern of Sharingan!"

However, this time the rhythm is not so good.

After the disaster last night, Soseki's image in everyone's mind can be said to be almost perfect.

"So what if there is a relationship? Soseki-sama is not the kind of person who would take sides with them!"

"That's right, in terms of strength, is there anyone more powerful than Soseki-sama?"

"That's right, Mr. Soseki saved so many people last night, and even considered the reconstruction after the disaster!"

Behind them, Danzo passed by with a gloomy face.

This is different from what he expected!

Obviously he acts faster than Soseki Kiyomizu, and he has the righteousness of early warning. Even against Uchiha, he has always been on the front line. Why are everyone unwilling to support him?
That brat Soseki Shimizu is younger than him, handsomer than him, stronger than him, better popular than him, and contributes more than him... Apart from these, what else can that brat compare to him?
Just when Danzo was aggrieved, Soseki's voice came from beside him.

"Elder Danzo."

Danzang turned his head to look, and snorted dissatisfiedly, "Why, are you here to show off your reputation to the old man? Don't get too complacent, it's not that the old man has no tricks..."

Soseki shook his head slightly, "Elder Danzo, can I take a step to speak?"

Although he didn't quite understand Soseki's purpose, Danzo naturally wouldn't show timidity, "Just go, I'm afraid you won't succeed?"

……

At this moment, in the upper conference room.

The third generation looked aside solemnly and asked, "Aren't you going to stop Danzo?"

Minato sighed, "He's not wrong, I really failed to fulfill my obligation as Hokage, and I took the initiative to find him, but it seems that I have a guilty conscience."

The third generation frowned, "Then you let him continue to spread the word?"

"He just wants me to step down from the position of Hokage, which is actually quite good." Minato said casually, "If that person really came for the position of Hokage last night, stepping down from Hokage can at least make Naruto feel better." Threatened!"

"Also, even if I step down from Hokage's position, he won't be able to take over this title!"

"That's true." Sandai nodded in agreement, and then asked solemnly, "Minato, is it really Uchiha Madara who controlled Kyuubi last night?"

Speaking of this, Minato also became serious, and shook his head after pondering for a moment, "I'm not sure, judging from his self-proclaimed Kyuubi and his conversation with me, he does think he is Uchiha Madara, but whether it is Both pupil strength and combat experience are far from the one in the legend!"

With that said, Minato struggled again, "If you say he's not Uchiha Madara, it's hard to find someone who meets the requirements in the Uchiha clan. Even Fugaku's pupil power is much weaker than that masked man."

The third generation smoked a pipe, "Could it be that the Uchiha clan disappeared or 'died' in the war, and came back to avenge Konoha after inheriting Uchiha Madara's will?"

Hearing Sandai mention it, Minato inexplicably thought of his disciple who was "exhumed" after his death, but soon, he shook his head mockingly.

Obito is a good boy, but his talent is so poor that it is impossible to have this kind of ability even in another 50 years.

Not to mention, how could such a kind-hearted Obito do such a cruel thing?
Abandoning these distracting thoughts, Minato said in a deep voice, "I went to Fu Yue last night, and the Uchiha clan didn't have any powerful people on the list of dead and missing in the Third Ninja World War, and, in just a few years, It’s also unlikely to let them grow to that extent.”

"That is to say, it is best to put suspicious candidates in the first two Ninja World Wars, and in the second Ninja World War, such a talented senior disappeared!"

The pupils of the third generation shrank suddenly, "You mean, mirror?"

As soon as the words fell, he denied it himself, "Impossible, it is absolutely impossible, Kagami is dead! Moreover, even if Kagami is still alive, it is absolutely impossible for him to do anything that would harm Konoha! He is more powerful than anyone else. Love the village!"

"Since you said that, Mr. Three Generations, I must be wrong!" Minato didn't insist, "After all, I really don't know that senior very well."

Sandai sighed with emotion, "If Kagami is still alive, the relationship between the village and Uchiha will definitely not be as rigid as it is now!"

Minato was a little surprised, he didn't expect the adults of the third generation to have such a high opinion of that senior.

"By the way, Master Sandai, that masked man accidentally revealed a secret when he was fighting me, that there may already be someone among the shadows of the other ninja villages..."

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a man in bandages walked in.

"Hehe, you two arrived quite early!"
