The light of leaves

Chapter 319 Danzo's Dream Come True
In addition to Danzo, the two Hokage consultants and Soseki also walked in behind him.

Although it was a little strange why Soseki was with Danzo, the two of Minato didn't think much about it.

"Danzo, it's almost enough, don't go too far!" Looking at Danzang, Sandai said in a deep voice.

"Hizun, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?" Danzo smiled and sat on the seat opposite Sandai.

"Don't tell me, you didn't spread those rumors outside?" Sandai said suppressing his anger.

"Rumor?" Danzo looked puzzled, and suddenly realized, "Oh, you're talking about Hokage-sama running away last night, right?"

"Minato was fighting with the mastermind who manipulated Kyuubi last night!" Sandai argued.

"Who saw it?" Danzo knocked on the table, "If there is no evidence, I still said that I was fighting the Sage of the Six Paths last night!"

"you……"

"Master Sandai, needless to say." Minato shook his head slightly, and then looked at Danzo, "Elder Danzo simply thinks that I am not qualified to be Hokage again. Well, I will step down from this position!"

Danzo was a little surprised, "You are decisive."

Minato smiled freely, "Perhaps, I am not suitable to be Hokage in the first place!"

"As for the new Hokage, let's come up with a charter here first." Danzo suggested, "If we quarrel with each other in front of the daimyo, it will inevitably leave a bad impression on the top management of the Fire Nation."

"Bad impression?" The third generation had weird eyes, but he knew that daimyos were all men called Danzo with fierce eyes in private.

"In this case, I suggest Soseki." Minato said with a smile, "No matter in terms of strength, prestige, or contribution, Soseki is the best candidate!"

Sandai nodded, "I agree with Minato's proposal."

Mitomonyan and Zhuanju Xiaochun glanced at each other, and then said the answer, "We support Danzo, he has foresight, ability, can predict danger in advance, and strictly monitor the risk factors in the village. A man qualified to be Hokage!"

Seeing Menyan and Xiaochun's attitude, Sandai sighed secretly.

If it is between him and Danzo, they will most likely support him.

But if it is between Danzo and others, they will support Danzo again.

He knew that they simply felt that the old man was more reliable.

"I still can't trust the ability of young people!" Sandai sighed in his heart, "However, if it is three to three, then other people can..."

But at this moment, Soseki suddenly said, "I also support Elder Danzo!"

"What?" Sandai and Minato couldn't believe it, and even doubted their own ears, "Soseki, how could you?"

If they didn't know that Danzo was far from Soseki's opponent, they would have suspected that Soseki had been kidnapped.

"Thank you for the wrong love between Midai-sama and Hokage-sama, but unfortunately I am still young and lacking in ability, so I can't take on such an important task. If it is Danzo Elder, he should be a more suitable candidate than me!"

"Haha, it seems that the answer is obvious!" Danzo laughed and got up and walked out, "You seem to have a lot to say, so I won't bother you."

Mitomonyan and Zhuanju Xiaoharu seemed to have known this would be the result, and followed them out without saying a word.

When there were only the three of them left in the meeting room, Sandai couldn't help asking, "Soseki, why?"

Soseki sighed, "My lord, you should also know the comments in the village about Minato-san, right?"

"Of course I know..." Sandai said with a slight change of expression, "Could it be that you made Danzo no longer target Minato on the condition that you give up Hokage?"

"It's just part of the deal."

"Soseki, you..." Minato couldn't help sighing while being moved, "You're so confused! I don't care about that at all. If you're worried about me being like Senior White Fang, then there's no need for it!"

Soseki looked at him sincerely, "I know Minato-san, you don't care about this, but what about sister Kushina and Naruto? Do you want them to live in an environment of hatred and hatred?"

Minato was shocked, "What does this have to do with them?"

"Sister Kushina is the container that seals the Nine-Tails, and Naruto is the reason why the seal is temporarily lifted. Even you, Minato-san, can be said to have run away, so of course they can also be said to be the source of the disaster!"

"If Danzo dares to do this, I will kill..." Minato's gentle face rarely showed a trace of killing intent.

"There are not a few people who support Danzo." Soseki looked worried, "If it really gets to that point, Konoha might be split because of it!"

Minato was silent, among other things, the two Hokage consultants would definitely not agree, and even those who were originally dissatisfied with Danzo would change their attitudes because of this.

"So, Soseki, you choose to sacrifice yourself?"

"Brother Minato, you don't have to blame yourself." Soseki smiled, "Besides you, part of the reason is for Uchiha."

"Uchiha?"

"Well, it may be difficult to ask Danzo not to target the Uchiha clan in the future, but if he just doesn't make use of it in this incident, he still agrees very readily."

Soseki went on to say, "I know that the Uchiha clan is definitely behind this incident and they are secretly manipulating it, but it would be too arbitrary to push the entire Uchiha clan to the opposite of Konoha because of this!"

The third generation was full of emotion, "It is indeed the luck of the Uchiha clan to know a friend like you!"

"Not really." Soseki sighed with a complicated expression, "I just think that some policies of the village are pushing the Uchiha clan into confrontation, which is a bit unfair to them, so, I I still want to try my best.”

The third generation declined to comment on this. After all, this has something to do with the policies formulated by his teacher.

"In short, for the stability and harmony of the village, it is the best choice for me to leave temporarily!"

"Leave temporarily?" Sandai suddenly raised his head, "Soseki, are you leaving Konoha?"

Soseki said with a smile, "You don't think that Danzo can let me, who is most likely to become Hokage, stay in the village with peace of mind?"

Sandai slapped the table angrily, "Danzo, that bastard!"

Saying that, Soseki looked apologetically to the side again, "And you, Minato-san, too. He won't rest assured that you, the former Hokage, will stay in Konoha."

Although he was a bit reluctant to part with Kushina and Naruto, Minato did not refuse, "Soseki, you have done this for me, so my sacrifice is naturally nothing."

"Besides, based on my current reputation, it would be a good choice to stay away from the whirlpool for a while and give Naruto a normal growth environment!"

"At that time, Danzo will announce to the outside world that we are going to perform a confidential mission. If you miss sister Kushina and Naruto, you can come back once a month, Brother Minato."

"Come back once a month?" Minato's eyes lit up, "Enough, this is enough!"

Soseki took a deep breath and continued, "As for the confidential mission mentioned, it is actually another reason why I agreed to leave Konoha temporarily!"
