Naruto's strongest wooden escape

At that time, the reason given by the Third Hokage was that Jiraiya was careless and not careful enough. Although Orochimaru was not good at words and deeds, he was thoughtful and thoughtful, making him the perfect candidate for the position of "chief commander".

However, anyone who cares can see that this reason is just a cover for the Third Hokage to favor Orochimaru.

For his most proud disciple, the Third Hokage's partiality and doting on Orochimaru is well known to everyone.Orochimaru himself is also very ambitious. With his own strength, Orochimaru has made great achievements in past wars.

Originally, according to convention, Orochimaru would be awarded the position of "frontline commander" this time.However, when it comes to the successor of the next generation of Hokage, the third generation of Hokage no longer considers Orochimaru.

Since the third generation of Hokage does not want Orochimaru to succeed as Hokage, then why let Orochimaru make the first contribution and increase Orochimaru's prestige in Konoha in vain?

However, when it came to selecting the frontline commander, the Third Hokage chose Hatake Sakumo, which was just a helpless move.

Hatake Sakumo was born in a bad family and was destined to miss the position of Hokage.

From the personnel arrangements of the Third Hokage, it can be seen that the Third Hokage does not want Hatake Sakumo to gain too much reputation.Therefore, in the previous wars, Hatake Sakumo had always acted as the deputy of Orochimaru and Jiraiya.

Nowadays, Orochimaru has been abandoned, Jiraiya and Tsunade have left the village, Uchiha Matsuri and Namikaze Minato have not grown up enough to be able to take charge of their own affairs. In the Konoha Village, there are only those who can take on the responsibility of "frontline commander" It seemed that only Hatake Sakumo was left.

"Third generation, although Orochimaru was injured, he is still an indispensable backbone of Konoha Village." Mito Kabuto said with a straight face, "Hatake Sakumo is good, but in terms of leadership experience, he is far inferior to Orochimaru. The pills accumulate more.”

"Now, if you abandon Orochimaru and choose Hatake Sakumo, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." Mito Kadoren glanced at the Third Hokage, as if he wanted to see through the Third Hokage's true thoughts.

Regarding Orochimaru's investigation, the Third Hokage only ordered his cronies to investigate secretly.

Therefore, Mito Kaden and Koharu Koharu knew nothing about the collusion between Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo.

"Orochimaru, I have another important responsibility." The Third Hokage glanced at Mito Kadoyan and then said, "With Sakumo's ability, there is no doubt that he is enough to take on this important responsibility."

"However, now, the war has not started yet, and all deployments are still at the discussion stage." The third Hokage said in a calm tone while holding his pipe in his mouth.

The Third Hokage said it right, the current discussion is just to prepare for a rainy day.The specific deployment will still have to wait until the war actually starts and after full discussion between the elders and Konoha's senior officials before it can be determined.

"Hokage-sama, the matter of Wood Release..." A senior executive hesitated for a while, and finally stood up.

I asked my own doubts.

In the past month, news of Mu Dun's reappearance in the ninja world has been spreading.The Uchiha Festival has undoubtedly become the focus of heated discussion among people, just like the Wood Release.

Many people are questioning that Wood Release only appeared on the body of the First Hokage Senju Hashirama. How did Uchiha Matsuri, a brat who couldn't compete with the First Hokage, master Wood Release, a blood-inherited limit (escape technique)? ?

After doubts, comes guarding and fear.

In order to prepare for the Uchiha Festival, major ninja villages have introduced some special measures

Measures against the Uchiha Festival.

Among them, Kirigakure Village's measures are undoubtedly the most stringent - all Kirigakure who encounter the Uchiha Festival have the obligation and responsibility to kill them.

Coupled with the previous bounty order issued by Kirigakure Village on Uchiha Matsuri, overnight, Uchiha Matsuri and money were equated, becoming the common enemy of all Kirigakure ninjas.

"I originally wanted to explain this matter." The Third Hokage had long expected that someone would bring up this topic, and said seriously, "Since you mentioned it, let me explain it to everyone here!"

After the Third Hokage finished speaking, everyone present focused their eyes on the Third Hokage's face, waiting for the explanation given by the Third Hokage.

Among them, Danzo Shimura's vision is the most complex.

As the mastermind behind the "Wooden Incident", if the Third Hokage pursues them, both Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru will inevitably be involved.

Danzo Shimura's heartbeat accelerated when he heard that the Third Hokage was going to explain the "Wooden Incident".

"Could it be that he already knows all the truth?" Shimura Danzo rolled his eyes, feeling a little uneasy.

It stands to reason that the cooperation between Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru is concealed enough. All the "root" ninjas who know the truth have been planted with curse seals by Shimura Danzo, and they are all Shimura Danzo's cronies.

Under this situation, if the Third Hokage still finds out all the truth, then the breakthrough in the investigation is likely to come from Orochimaru, not Shimura Danzo and "The Root".

"Actually, the blood of the Senju of the Forest flows in the blood of Uchiha Matsuri." The words of the Third Hokage made everyone stunned.

Just kidding!

An Uchiha's bloodline has the blood of the Senju clan?This kind of thing is impossible to happen no matter what!

Anyone with a little knowledge of history knows the grudges between Senju Mori and Uchiha.These two families have always been famous rivals in the ninja world.

Although the two major families achieved reconciliation after the establishment of Konoha, in order to maintain the purity of the family bloodline, it is absolutely impossible for the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan to achieve marriage.

Therefore, after the Third Hokage announced that the Uchiha Festival had the blood of the Senju clan, everyone present was shocked and their mouths seemed to be saying "Are you kidding me?"

"Hokage-sama, did you just say that Uchiha Matsuri has the blood of the Senju of Mori?" Akimichi Choza, the new leader of the Akimichi clan, stood up and asked.

After the sacrifice of the older generation Ino Shikacho, the 20-year-old Choza Akimichi, Shikaku Nara and Kaiichi Yamanaka inherited the positions of heads of the Akimichi clan, Nara clan and Yamanaka clan respectively.

Therefore, as the patriarch of the Akimichi clan, despite his young age and junior qualifications, Akimichi Dingza still participated in this high-level meeting with only more than 30 people in attendance.

"Yes, you heard it right. Among the ancestors of the Uchiha Festival, there are indeed members of the Senju clan of the forest." The third Hokage nodded and said with a smile.

"Everyone doesn't know that Uchiha Matsuri's mother was not originally a member of the Uchiha clan..." The Third Hokage pressed his hat with his right hand and explained in a gentle tone.

"This is normal. Many women take their husband's surname after marriage. From this point of view, Uchiha Matsuri's mother is most likely not a member of the Uchiha clan." Nara Shikaku said, holding his hands.
