Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja

The huge conference room was silent. Ye Shan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He asked calmly, "There are witnesses and evidence. Who has any objections?"

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Don't talk about me, the Hokage, ruling dictatorship behind my back!"

The ninjas stood up and saluted, saying, "We dare not!"

"It's best if you don't dare!" Ye Shan put down his teacup, put his hands on his chin and said calmly: "People say that those who are not deaf or dumb are not qualified to be the head of the family. Why? Because there are too many trivial matters in a family. If you take it too seriously, it will hurt the harmony!"

"This sentence is also applicable to managing the village. You are all very smart people, and you naturally understand the principle of being lenient to others. The village manages so many people, and countless things happen every day. If I, as the Hokage, really take everything seriously, I would have died of exhaustion long ago!"

"Let's not talk about the distant past, let's just talk about the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village. He set up a bloody mist rule in the village, forbidding the Hidden Mist Ninjas to do this or that, dreaming of a high-pressure dictatorship. What happened to him?"

"The lessons of the past are there, and I cannot ignore them, but the problem is that everything has a limit. Some people may ask, where is the limit for a Hokage? I can tell you responsibly that as long as it is not an act that intentionally harms the village, I can tolerate it!"

"Konoha belongs to me, but it also belongs to you. We live in the same place, enjoying the blessings that our parents worked so hard to earn. This is a good thing."

Ye Shanying looked at the whole audience: "Since we are all family, we might as well speak frankly. I have captured Orochimaru, and it is useless for anyone to plead for mercy! All the power of Orochimaru's former subordinates has been stripped by me, and they are all exiled to the New Rain Country to make amends for their crimes!"

"Now, who's for and who's against?"

The ninjas looked at each other, but no one dared to take the initiative to express their opinions. Jiraiya was not in the village among the three ninjas, Tsunade was addicted to the casino all day, and the direct descendants of the Third Hokage had no say in the matter.

Uchiha Fugaku frowned and said coldly: "Are you all mute? The Hokage is asking you a question!"

"I agree!"

Ye Shan nodded in satisfaction, tapping his fingers on the table, as if tapping everyone's heart: "It's easy to say it three times, and I'm not a nagging old woman, but this is related to the future of the village, I emphasize it again, you remember, I won't say it again in the future!"

"My position as Hokage was not obtained in an upright way. After all, it was not appointed by the previous Hokage himself, and I have no connection with the direct lineage of the Senju. But now that I have become the Hokage, I must make a career."

"I planned the policies of the New Rain Country. You don't have to participate, but you must not sabotage it secretly! Just stay in the village and enjoy your life. I will give you the full monthly salary."

"Discuss among yourselves what to do with Orochimaru, and give me a result in five minutes."

After saying that, Ye Shan leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest. Seeing this, Nara Shikaku replaced his cup of tea with a new one and opened a pack of cigarettes and placed it next to the cup. He was very considerate and competent.

"If this scum is not killed, the public anger will not be appeased. I demand that the Hokage execute Orochimaru immediately!" Uchiha Keiji was the first to stand up and raised his arms and shouted.

Seeing this, many senior ninjas who were on good terms with the Uchiha clan stood up and agreed, and for a moment the opinion of executing Orochimaru became the dominant theme.

But soon, many of the Third Hokage's former subordinates objected: "Lord Orochimaru has suppressed the Land of Earth and defeated the Land of Wind for many years, and his contributions are great. Although he made a big mistake this time, his crime is not punishable by death, and he should be severely punished and imprisoned."

"Bullshit, Orochimaru did make contributions, but that was all the result of the Hokage's good leadership and the desperate efforts of the village ninjas. How could he be the first to make the contribution?"

"Execution, must be executed!"

"Wouldn't it be disheartening to kill a meritorious official without authorization? Who would be willing to serve the village in the long run? Just spare his life and give him a severe punishment!"

"Nonsense! Why didn't you defend Hatake Sakumo-sama during the meeting? You guys didn't dare to say a word, and now it's Orochimaru's turn and you guys jumped out, you evil villains with evil intentions!"

"Hatake Sakumo committed suicide out of fear of punishment, which is completely different from Orochimaru's situation. Don't talk nonsense!"

"Come on, come on, tell me what crime Hatake Sakumo committed. If you can't tell me, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

"In the final analysis, you are the former subordinates of the Third Hokage, and you are thinking of banding together to fight against the Fourth Hokage! Your crime is not punishable by death, and you have made great contributions to the village. Even a three-year-old child can't be fooled!" Uchiha Keiji said excitedly, pointing out the most intense conflict in the village at the moment.

The third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead, but the foundation of his decades of rule over the village has already been deeply rooted in every corner. At present, he still has supporters in all functional departments of the village, big and small. Especially since he died fighting for Konoha, it is impossible to settle accounts with Yeshan.

Not to mention the new policies of the New Rain Country, let alone the Ninjutsu Research Association, all the focus is on one thing: the old party is not satisfied with their current political status, and they want to live a good life of having the final say again.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen was in power, how could the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan have a say in the jonin meeting? Now, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Keiji, Uchiha Seiji, Hyuga Hiashi, Hyuga Hizashi, etc. have all grown strong, and it was all caused by the Fourth Hokage!

We, the Sarutobi clan, the Sannin, and the Ino-Shika-cho, are the masters of this village! Who the hell do you think you are?

Of course the New Party is eager to implement new policies to divide power and sideline us. The Old Party ninjas don't care that the people of the New Rain Country are suffering. They deserve them to starve to death. Why should they care a penny about us high and mighty ninjas?

Uchiha Fugaku watched coldly, murderous intent spreading in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, he wanted to slap himself a few times! Why didn't he find a reason to kill these annoying old party members on the battlefield? Otherwise, how could there be so much bullshit?

"Did you hear that?" Ye Shan closed his eyes and whispered, "These are the elites of our village, a group of elites who only know how to protect their own interests!"

Nara Shikaku wiped the sweat off his forehead, not knowing who the Hokage was asking. He glanced at the Deputy Hokage who was about to go berserk, and wisely chose to keep silent.

"A lean camel is bigger than a horse! Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead, but the supporters he left behind should not be underestimated. You should take note of the loudest guy and clean up after him. A big house is easy to get dirty, and a big granary is prone to rats. As the deputy Hokage in charge, you should clean up on schedule. Just do whatever you want and don't always ask for instructions or reports. Don't I, Baiyun Yeshan, trust you?"

Uchiha Fugaku whispered, "I was negligent. I thought it was normal to be united during wartime, but I didn't expect that after the war, everyone would come out to miss their old master."

"People only miss the past when their days are not going as they wish. There is a saying in my hometown that goes 'You're so happy here that you won't miss your homeland.' If it was Orochimaru sitting in my seat now, they wouldn't make a fuss!" Ye Shan said self-deprecatingly.

"That's right. Compared to the legitimate Orochimaru, what am I, a guy who suddenly showed up? A nobody, I suddenly became the top leader. Anyone would be secretly dissatisfied."

Ye Shan closed his eyes and kept mumbling, "But they don't need to think about it. Who asked me to come out of retirement like a stray dog ​​by the Nanhe River? Who saved Konoha from the dire situation with one battle? It was me who saved the building from collapse! It was also me who turned the tide! I fought hard to become the Hokage. What kind of a second-generation heir like Sarutobi Hiruzen is?"

"It's like going out to eat, and not feeling full after 99 bites, but feeling full after the 100th bite. They all attribute the achievement to the 100th bite, and completely forget the first 99 bites!"

"The most infuriating thing is that I am only the hundredth one, and Sarutobi Hiruzen can't even count as the first ninety-nine!"

"The most unforgettable thing in the world is hatred, and the easiest thing to forget is favor. They didn't remember that I opened a ninja library for them and improved their treatment, but they remembered that I wanted to centralize power!"

"This is really unreasonable!"

The more Ye Shan talked, the angrier he got. He simply put his legs on the table and slumped over the chair, looking disheartened. But Uchiha Fugaku knew that Ye Shan was really angry and had the intention to kill.

"Political people hate to start a war. Just be patient for now. It won't be too late to settle the score after the New Rain Country is stabilized!" Uchiha Fugaku sneered and said in a low voice.

"I understand the logic, but I just can't swallow my anger when the time comes." Ye Shan sighed.

"Be patient, everything is for the new policy!"

"Sir, five minutes are up." Nara Shikaku reminded softly.

"Ok!"

Ye Shan slowly opened his eyes, his tired look disappeared, and he looked around at everyone with a sharp gaze. The noise gradually died down, and after a moment it became quiet.

"It seems that everyone is having a heated discussion. Tell me the result." Ye Shan said expressionlessly.

Uchiha Keiji saluted and said, "In reply to Hokage-sama, after our discussion, we unanimously decided to execute Orochimaru as a warning to others!"

Someone immediately stood up to refute: "To reply to Hokage, Uchiha Keiji is confusing the public. The result of our discussion is confinement, not the execution of Orochimaru!"

"That's strange." Ye Shan smiled and said, "You two are talking about completely different things. Who should I listen to?"

"In reply to Lord Hokage," Uchiha Keiji said, bowing his waist, "There is only one leader of Konohagakure, and that is you! You can do whatever you want with us, and we will listen to you!"

"That won't do. Konoha belongs to everyone, not just me. The Third Hokage once said that where leaves fly, fire will never stop. You are all heroes who burn yourselves to light up the village. I, the Hokage, am at best just a larger leaf." Ye Shan said seriously.

"Any dictatorial ruler will not die a good death. Ye Shan is still young, and he doesn't want to die inexplicably one day. Besides, the Hokage is supposed to gather ideas and listen to everyone's voices. Otherwise, how can he be called a lone ranger?"

"But the problem is, you all say different things, and it's hard for me to judge who's right or wrong. How about this, you two go outside and have a life-and-death duel, and I'll fight whoever survives, how about that?" Ye Shan said slowly.

"We agree!"

“We object!”

Immediately, two groups of people expressed their attitudes. Those who agreed were all Uchiha Keiji's followers, and those who opposed were naturally the Third Hokage's old party. What a joke! Not to mention how shocking the world was that two ninjas were fighting to the death, in terms of strength, Uchiha Keiji could easily beat five people. Did they really think that the second in command of the Uchiha clan was a waste?

In the Third Ninja World War, Uchiha Keiji had the record of slaughtering dozens of Mist Ninjas alone. This middle-aged man who smiles all day long is definitely not a silver spear and wax head.

"Hokage!" Someone stood up and said, "It would be a disgrace if the news of the life-and-death duel between two village leaders got out. It would damage the reputation of Konoha. Please think twice before you act."

Ye Shan smiled and said, "Then what do you say we should do?"

"Please Hokage-sama take charge of the world!"

"Is that so?" Ye Shan stroked his chin and smiled, "Then I will act arbitrarily for once. Of course, if you don't agree, feel free to speak up."

"I can't wait!"

"Orochimaru has studied the cells of the first generation without permission, blaspheming the holy soul of his ancestors. This is a crime!"

"Orochimaru is lawless, regards the lives of his companions as worthless, and secretly kills his companions for experimental research. These are two crimes!"

"Orochimaru is in a high position, doing nothing all day, neglecting government orders. These are the three crimes!"

"Orochimaru openly resisted arrest and attacked the Hokage. These are the fourth crimes!"

Ye Shan stated Orochimaru's crimes with a smile, and everyone who heard it broke out in cold sweats.

"Orochimaru led an army alone to fight against the Sand Village, this is a great achievement!"

"Orochimaru has worked tirelessly for the village over the years, and this is his second achievement!"

"Four crimes and two merits, the merits and demerits cannot offset each other, so I have decided..." Ye Shan stood up and said word by word: "Abolish all of Orochimaru's positions, remove his title of Jonin, and deprive him of his title of Sannin. Let it be known!"

"Seal your chakra for five years, imprison you for life!"

"Pull out the tendons of his hands and feet, cast a spell on him, and order him not to leave the village for life!"

Every word of these cold words made everyone's heart skip a beat. When Ye Shan finished speaking, Uchiha Keiji suddenly realized that this treatment was more painful than killing Orochimaru...

It is said that the Hokage is ruthless. It is a piece of cake to get a few people. Uchiha Keiji was overjoyed and was the first to express his opinion: "Hokage is wise!"

More than half of the ninjas also expressed their views: "We obey the orders of the Hokage!"

The old party members fell silent. If they continued to do this, Orochimaru might as well die!

"Sir, is the punishment too severe?" someone asked.

"Who are you?" Ye Shan asked without even raising his eyelids.

"I am..."

"Never mind, your name is not important."

The mighty chakra in Ye Shan's body exploded, suffocating everyone, shattering the soundproof glass with good texture, and opening the heavy steel door: "Anbu, check it carefully!"

"Check this man's life and past, and kill him without mercy if he has committed any crime!"

Uchiha Keiji smiled and cast an illusion to freeze the opponent. Two Anbu ninjas dragged him down on the left and right.

The sea of ​​chakra raged in the conference room. Many weaker jonin collapsed to the ground with trembling legs. Even the veteran jonin endured it with great difficulty and were on the verge of collapse.

Ye Shan restrained his breath and said slowly and calmly: "I like to win people over with virtue. Don't provoke me, otherwise martial virtue is also virtue!"

"It's late at night, a good time to arrest someone. Do you know what to do?"

"Know!"

The New Party members answered angrily.

"Dispersed, tired."

"As ordered!"
