I established the Kua Kua Cult in Naruto

Chapter 216 When the interests are different, the same person will make completely opposite decisions

"Tatsuma is looking for me? Let him come up."

The next day, in the Hokage's office, listening to Shikahara's report, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a confused look on his face.

After all, Tatsuma is an ANBU and the Hokage's bodyguard. There is no need to report when you come to see him. You can just come directly to the Hokage's office. How could he suddenly make a last-minute appointment?

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's doubts, Shigakan reminded him: "Sandaime-sama, Tatsuma may not be here to see you based on the position he holds."

The fact that Tatsuma is an ANBU is a secret to most people, but as a staff member of the Hokage, Nara Shikato has to go in and out of the Hokage's office several times a day, this is not a big deal at all.

After being reminded by Lu Yuan, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly realized and said: "Then let him come up quickly."

"Okay, then I'll call him."

Lu Yuan then left the Hokage's office, and soon brought Tatsuma, who was limping a little, to the Hokage's office. He did not go in, but motioned for Tatsuma to go in alone.

"Thank you."

Tatsuma thanked him first, and then knocked on the door of the Hokage's office when he saw Lu Yuan turned around and left.

"Come in."

In the office, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke. He heard Tatsuma's light and heavy footsteps. Just as he was a little confused, he saw Tatsuma opening the door and walking in.

Paying attention to his pace and posture, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. After Tatsuma closed the office door, he asked: "Is it not going well? It doesn't matter. This is a three to five-year plan. There is no need to rush."

Chenma shook his head and said: "It's not that it didn't go well. On the contrary, it went so well that I was surprised."

"and you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen pointed at several of Tatsuma's wounds. Although they were separated by clothes, as a powerful and outstanding ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen could already guess where Tatsuma was injured through his previous observation.

Tatsuma looked bitter and said, "Some accidents happened afterwards, but things still went smoothly."

Tatsuma couldn't help but tremble when he thought back to the severe beating Tsunade gave him after they finished talking about business yesterday. Tsunade was really cruel.

He just relied on his status as a medical ninja to hit the unkillable areas, otherwise Tatsuma felt that he could have determined the age of his life yesterday.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also thought of his disciple's temperament, but when faced with Tsunade, Tatsuma was able to successfully persuade her. Although he experienced a violent beating afterwards, it was enough to show Tatsuma's ability.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen was still a little curious and asked, "Since things are going well, why did you come to me today?"

"It's like this. Although the teacher has agreed, there are still conditions. And he doesn't want to come to see you because he is afraid that he will kill his teacher, so he asked me to come."

Tatsuma's tone was not as strict and respectful as before when he was the Hokage's guard, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen a little uncomfortable, but he guessed that Tatsuma now represented Tsunade and was relieved.

Whether Tsunade can kill Master is one thing, but it would be better for him not to see Tsunade recently, so as not to hurt the relationship between master and disciple.

"Cough cough."

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, sat up straight, pointed to the seat opposite him, motioned for Tatsuma to sit down, and began to fill his tobacco, thinking about something.

In recent months, Sarutobi Hiruzen's daily smoking had been greatly reduced, as Tatsuma should have said that Yasha would always interrupt or dissuade him from smoking in any reasonable way.

But Tatsuma himself could not interrupt Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts of smoking, so he could only helplessly watch Sarutobi Hiruzen smoke.

After smoking a whole pipe of cigarettes, Sarutobi Hiruzen also planned the bottom line in his mind. Although it was preset before, the initial bargaining chip was to establish a new medical ninja training system in exchange for Tsunade's consent to the Wooden Ninja Plan. .

But Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew that this was impossible. After all, he had already promised Tsunade to establish a new medical ninja training system and could only be used as a blackmail.

To really get Tsunade to agree, a profit concession is necessary, but she just doesn't know how much Tsunade wants.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tatsuma and said: "Tatsuma, you should also know that the village is now being rebuilt after the war, and not just the village, many towns in the Land of Fire are undergoing postwar reconstruction work.

Therefore, neither the Daming Mansion nor the village can afford much money. "

The so-called post-war reconstruction is nothing more than a reshuffling of interests, and this time the war did not spread within the Land of Fire. There were many small riots in various places, but they fell short of the real "reconstruction" project.

Moreover, in Konoha Village, when the ownership rights of the land were re-divided, the bidding method was used. The demolition and reconstruction were also the projects of each clan and had nothing to do with the village.

Therefore, using post-war reconstruction as an excuse for lack of money is pure nonsense, and Tatsuma doesn't believe a word of it.

However, he would not expose it. Apart from the fact that there was no need to offend Sarutobi Hiruzen, the most important reason was that he was not doing this trip for money at all.

Tatsuma smiled and nodded, and said: "Teacher naturally knows the difficulties of the village. It is impossible to put forward such excessive demands and hinder the progress of the village during the period of post-war reconstruction and development."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with some uncertainty: "Aren't you here for money?"

"of course not."

Tatsuma said righteously, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. He always felt that things were getting worse. It was easier to solve the problem with money, and he didn't even ask for money. He always felt that it was not the style of his disciple.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't mention it much, but asked: "Does Tsunade have any ideas? The village will try its best to satisfy it."

"Well, the teacher's idea is very simple. After all, this matter is related to the disposal of the body of the first generation. Although he is the granddaughter of the first generation, the teacher still does not dare to make the decision on his own."

After Tatsuma finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen became more confused. Tsunade was not such an intellectual person, but he still waited for Tatsuma's next words. Tatsuma did not delay, but continued:

"There is one person who has absolute control over the disposal of the Shodaime-sama's remains."

‘Mito-sama? ’

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of Uzumaki Mito. As the wife of Senju Hashirama, Uzumaki Mito did have control, but it couldn't be said to be absolute, right? Besides, Uzumaki Mito shouldn't be involved in this matter. Tsunade doesn't understand this. How can Tatsuma and Uzumaki Mito not understand this?

"Oh? Tsunade can't control it, so who is more qualified than her?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, Tatsuma nodded and looked at a wall in the Hokage's office, where three photo frames were hanging. Tatsuma also said at this time: "The Shodaime-sama will decide it in person. In this way , and there will be no other sounds.”

"Tatsuma, please stop joking like this. The Shodaime-sama has been dead for decades, how can we make a decision?"

"Didn't the Nidaime-sama once develop a forbidden technique called Pure Land Reincarnation? It should be able to allow the First-Daime-sama's soul to return from the Pure Land and return to the living world for judgment, right?"

Tatsuma continued to maintain his smile, but Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened and said: "To disturb the peace of the deceased is against the relationship between life and death. I will not allow such a thing to happen.

Your teacher, do you have any other ideas? It is absolutely impossible for this old man to agree to the use of filthy soil reincarnation to summon the Shodaime-sama. Moreover, no one knows the technique of filthy soil reincarnation nowadays. "

"Yes, the art of reincarnation from dirty soil is too profound. Not to mention that no one has learned it. Even if someone comes to learn it now, I'm afraid it will take some years to do it. This will miss the village's future plans."

Somewhat contrary to Sarutobi Hiruzen's expectations, Tatsuma actually nodded, and Tatsuma continued: "I also convinced the teacher and gave an alternative plan."

Mr. Lu Xun once said: "Human nature always likes to compromise. For example, if you say that this room is too dark and a window must be opened here, everyone will not allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof, they will make adjustments. , willing to open the window.”

Tatsuma knew that it was impossible for the village to agree to use the art of reincarnation. After all, if they were willing to use the art of reincarnation, there would be no need to cultivate new wood escape ninjas.

But it is impossible for the village to agree to the direct proposal that Tsunade should obtain a status similar to that of Uzumaki Mito now, so it must take the initiative to make concessions and let the village see its sincerity.

"Tell me carefully."

As expected, Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Tatsuma expectantly.

Tatsuma also put away his smile and said: "Although the matter of recreating the Wooden Ninja was Grandma Mito's work during her lifetime, it was for Grandma Mito's posthumous work.

For the Senju Clan, Grandma Mito is not only the former mistress, but also a monument that reminds the village of the Senju Clan’s hard work and dedication over the past decades. If Grandma Mito leaves, I’m afraid the Senju Clan’s The past will also be forgotten little by little. "

‘I don’t want profit, I want fame! ’

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes widened and he looked at Tatsuma in front of him. He finally understood that this overall plan and this style probably did not come from Tsunade's wishes at all. They were all the rights that Tatsuma fought for for her. .

But suddenly, the depression, dissatisfaction, and faint surprise on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face were wiped away, and replaced with a smile.

This boy, when serving as his own bodyguard, made suggestions for himself and dared to "trap" Tsunade for the benefit of the village. And when he was Tsunade's disciple, he was willing to take credit for the village plan for the sake of his teacher. It was really

Previously, when Tatsuma unhesitatingly ignored the master-disciple relationship with Tsunade when he was planning to recreate the Wooden Ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been worried about whether this boy would be paranoid and step into the darkness for the sake of the village.

But now it seems that maybe from that day on, he has already found a target for his teacher. In the past few months, he has just been waiting for this opportunity.

If Tatsuma did one thing before others and another behind others, Sarutobi Hiruzen would undoubtedly be angry, but if it were Tatsuma.

How can this be called duplicity? ! This is called being in your position and seeking your own government! As the Hokage's bodyguard, I share the Hokage's worries, yes! As a disciple, it is right to fight for the rights you deserve for your teacher!

What's more, aren't Sarutobi Hiruzen, Tsunade, and Sakamoto Tatsuma all sharing a community of interests?

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly felt heartbroken, because such a good child was about to be pushed into darkness by his own hands for the sake of his rights.

'no! It seems that I have to leave a way out for this kid! ’

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, he had already begun to think about how to make Tatsuma become Orochimaru's assistant and participate in the research on reconstructing wood escape ninjas, so that he could still have a way out.
