At ten o’clock in the morning, in the Hokage’s office.
Three genuine leather sofas surrounded a tea table, and the four old people each took their seats.
Those who participated in this high-level meeting included Sarutobi Hiruzen the 3rd Hokage, Hokage assistant Shimura Danzo, and two advisors—Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.
Koharu and Homura not only manages Konoha’s huge government affairs organization, but is also responsible for the communication between the village and the Daimyo’s mansion. theye are veterans recognized by the Fire Country’s daimyo himself.
These four old persn who are now in high positions were all disciples of Senju Tobirama.
After the death of the second generation, the four of them managed the village for nearly 40 years. Experiencing two great wars in the world, all kinds of storms and waves came.
It could be said.
For the village to have its glory today, the leadership role played by the four higher-ups was crucial.
This was clearly written in the ninja school’s teaching materials.
At this time.
Koharu and Homura each held a piece of information. After reading it, their faces were solemn.
“I didn’t expect the Uchiha to have three pairs of Mangekyo Sharingan so well hidden.” Koharu squinted her eyes and sighed.
“It seems that the Uchiha has been holding back for the past few years to let us relax our vigilance. Now they finally bared fangs.” Homura pushed his glasses and agreed.
As the disciples of Senju Tobirama, the two of them had heard and heard about the Mangekyo Sharingan from their teacher, so they naturally knew what it meant.
Fortunately.
Judging from the information currently available, although the three of Fugaku, Shisui, and Dan are stronger than each other, they are still far behind Uchiha Madara back then.
Not to mention anything else.
Madara’s Susanoo was more than a hundred meters tall, and it could flatten a mountain and break a river.
It was even more terrifying than the berserk Kyubi.
If the Uchiha clan had three Madara, then what was the point of playing? Even if the Senju Hasirama was reborn, he would still have to stand aside.
“Cough cough.”
The 3rd put down his pipe, cleared his throat, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Danzo.
Slide.
Danzo threw the information file in his hand on the tea table and said in a low voice:
“I have already sent people to secretly spread the contents of this document. It won’t be long before the whole village will know that the Uchiha has three pairs of Mangekyo.”
Huh?
When the 3rd heard this, he frowned and suppressed his anger to ask Danzo, “Why did you do this? Give me a reason.”
He had clearly ordered Danzo to stop all actions against the Uchiha, but the latter was still doing his own thing and did not put him in his eyes at all.
Facing the 3rd, Danzo sat on the sofa and replied confidently,
“Of course, it’s to make the whole village stand on our side.
After all, no one wanted to see another Madara appearing in Konoha, and now the three pairs of Mangekyo would make those who were originally afraid of the Uchiha even more afraid of them.
At that time, the whole village will have dozens of Ninja Clan, as well as thousands of civilians, and with your command, they will work together to deal with the Uchiha.
As long as we can gather the strength of the whole village, are we afraid of the Uchiha threatening our order?”
Danzo thought he had done the right thing, so he was not afraid of being questioned by the 3rd.
The 3rd shook his head in disappointment, and mercilessly reprimanded Danzo:
“Danzo, your general view is too small.
You only want to deal with the Uchiha, but you haven’t thought that the village can’t withstand internal friction. Don’t forget that the other villages have been eyeing Konoha!
If the conflict with Uchiha is now intensified and internal strife is triggered, will the external strife be far behind? you tell me! “
“Hmph.”
Danzo heard this and stood up, staring at the 3rd with a burning gaze.
:Hiruzen, you are too indecisive, that’s why you let the Uchiha’s tail grow big, causing this clan to become a cancer in the village.
In this matter, you, the Hokage, have to take full responsibility!”
On the side, Koharu and Homura chose to remain silent.
On the Uchiha issue, they are all pro-Danzo, in favor of using more aggressive tactics than what they are doing now.
Shit.
The 3rd saw that the situation was not right. If this went on, he, the Hokage, would be taken over by the other three, and immediately –
Bang!
He slammed the coffee table and stood up as well, shouting angrily at Danzo, “You better stop before you go too far!”
“Okay, okay, stop arguing.”
“We haven’t even thought about how to deal with the Uchiha yet, and now WE have an internal conflict. What is going on?”
Seeing this, Koharu and Homura finally shook their heads helplessly and acted as peacemakers.
This was not the first time Konoha’s F4 had a quarrel.
After working together for decades, it was common for four people to have differences in political views and even quarrel.
However, there was one thing that was the same in Konoha’s F4, and that was –
Everything they did was from the interests of Konoha, to protect the village.
At the very least, they themselves thought so.
After calming down.
Koharu, as the only woman in the upper management, raised her own opinion:
“As Hiruzen said, it is not suitable to start a war with the Uchiha right now. When Uchiha release Kakashi, it is clear that they do not want to fall out with the village, because they know that they have no chance of winning.”
“But…”
“The problem now is that the Uchiha has shown three pairs of Mangekyo cards. If we can’t make a strong response, they will certainly be restless and try to regain the power of the police force. How should we deal with it then?”
The problem of the Uchiha was actually the problem of the police force.
This caused a headache for Konoha’s higher-ups for decades.
“This is the fault of the 2nd Hokage.”
Danzo snorted coldly, not showing any face to the dead teacher at all, “The second generation made the second biggest mistake in his life when he established the police force and let the Uchiha clan take full control of it.”
Danzo had always been resentful of 2nd Hokage, because when he chose the heir, he did not choose him, but instead chose Sarutobi.
Not only Danzo.
Koharu and Homura had been dissatisfied with the matter of 2nd generation handing over the police force to the Uchiha, and they could not understand.
The police department.
They were responsible for setting up the laws of Konoha, maintaining the village’s peace and stability, as well as arresting those with criminal tendencies.
Legislative, executive, and judicial powers are all complete.
From arresting people, to trial and conviction, to sending them to prison, it can be said to be “one-stop service”.
The power of the police department was so great that in the whole of Konoha, only the Anbu could keep them in check.
In other words.
In Konoha, besides the Anbu, the remaining close to ten thousand Ninjas and more than a hundred thousand civilians were under the jurisdiction of the Uchiha.
The Uchiha casually found an excuse to arrest whoever they wanted.
Is this reasonable?
So in the past thirty years.
In order to correct the mistakes committed by the second generation, Konoha’s F4 could be said to have racked their brains to reduce the power of the police department, which made the Uchiha unable to cause much trouble.
