NARUTO- CH-164. Meeting is over

This is called a magic duel.

Fight magic with magic.

"Does anyone have any comments?"

Tsunade asked, crossing her arms.

"No!"

The first person to support it was the representative of the Sarutobi clan, Hiruzen's eldest son.

In the original work, he had very few roles. But he had a son, and there is a lot of plot in that story.

That is Konohamaru.

After Hiruzen stepped down as Hokage, he still held the position of the head of the Sarutobi clan. But he was forced to abdicate and lost face, so he let his eldest son attend today's meeting. The reason he agreed was naturally because the one who benefited was his younger brother Asuma.

The most important thing was that through this appointment, he could return to Konoha with honor. Because now, Asuma was still in the Land of Fire as his guardian ninja.

Upon hearing this, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado's expressions suddenly became uncertain.

The most important ally they had recruited was the Sarutobi clan. With their rebellion, their position as Hokage advisors came to an end. No matter how much they struggled, it was useless. Moreover, considering Tsunade's current unstable mental state, the consequences might be even more severe.

"I agree!"

Might Guy said excitedly.

The corner of Kakashi's mouth twitched slightly.

'It's me who becomes the Hokage's guard, not you. Why are you so happy?'

He looked at Tsunade, a little distracted. To be honest, this was indeed beyond his expectations. Can he really do it?

Kakashi wanted to refuse, but he didn't dare to offend Tsunade.

After Might Guy, everyone else echoed.

In the end, only Utane Koharu and Mito Kado had not expressed their opinions.

"I have already investigated clearly. Attacking the Root and launching a coup were just the personal actions of Fugaku and Itachi."

Tsunade simply ignored them and moved on to the second matter.

Because Mikoto had become a member of the Hokage Guard before, no one was too surprised. In fact, this was the best way to handle it.

Does this mean that the Uchiha clan is going to be wiped out completely?

If they really did that, not only would the strength of Konoha be greatly reduced, but it would also likely attract the covetousness of other villages. If war breaks out again, the cost would definitely outweigh the gain.

"Designate Itachi as an S-rank rogue ninja."

Tsunade said again, "But the Uchiha clan members who remain in Konoha will not be implicated."

Mikoto bit her lip.

The white teeth left a faint mark on her tender lips.

She was happy that the Uchiha clan did not receive any punishment, but she had mixed feelings about Itachi. After all, he was the son she was most proud of.

"Aunt Mikoto."

Shiki looked at her.

"I'm fine."

Mikoto subconsciously grabbed his hand and said, "Let me hold it for a while."

She was suddenly in power and had experienced such an event, which made her feel very confused and uneasy.

Among all the jonin present, only Shiki could make her feel trustworthy, so she made such a move.

"The third issue is related to the Nine-Tails Rebellion."

Tsunade dropped another bombshell.

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other.

Shiki felt his left hand being gripped tighter.

Mikoto's soft skin completely wrapped around his small hand, leaving only warmth.

He understood why.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion was a turning point for the Uchiha clan. Since then, they had gone downhill rapidly. Mikoto didn't know why Tsunade brought up this matter again, and she felt very nervous.

Shiki raised his eyes.

He clearly saw two beads of sweat rolling down her forehead, flowing down her snow-white neck. One fell on her collarbone, and the other slid into the abyss.

"The mysterious masked man who appeared that night at the Root was the culprit behind the Nine-Tails Rebellion."

Tsunade said seriously, "I will find him as soon as possible and give everyone an explanation."

"What?!"

The crowd was shocked.

Mikoto subconsciously covered her mouth.

If Tsunade's words were true, then the Uchiha clan could be cleared of suspicion from now on. It's such great news!

But…

A mist appeared in Mikoto's eyes.

It would have been nice to know this sooner.

Perhaps Fugaku and Itachi would not have staged a coup.

"One last thing."

Tsunade didn't give anyone time to react and continued, "Hanabi is my student from today on."

Hiashi's body shook violently, and he felt ecstatic.

Because the Hokage Guard had no resentment toward the Hyuga clan, they immediately disappeared.

It is no exaggeration to say that the student of the Hokage is a strong contender for the next Hokage. Even if she fails, she can still become a high-ranking official in Konoha and possess unimaginable influence. As long as Hanabi doesn't make any mistakes and remains the Hokage's student, she can provide continuous feedback to the Hyuga clan.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama."

Hiashi stood up and bowed slightly, showing great respect.

At the same time, it also illustrated the loyalty of the Hyuga clan.

Tsunade nodded.

Apart from a little trouble caused by Utane Koharu and Mitokado, today's Jonin meeting went quite smoothly.

"The meeting is adjourned!"

Tsunade stood up and walked out.

Because it was so swift and decisive, many ninjas did not react in time.

For example, the mysterious masked man.

They had too many questions.

Too bad Tsunade didn't give them a chance.

But the matter was soon forgotten.

Because the most urgent task was to congratulate Shikaku, Hiashi, and others.

Only Mikoto's place was relatively deserted.

Although the Uchiha clan cleared up the misunderstanding, their personalities were not likable.

Shiki suddenly remembered those words again.

Naruto is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom.

"Thank you, Shiki."

Mikoto released his hand, and a sickly smile appeared on her face.

With the black kimono on her body, her widow temperament became more obvious.

"Aunt Mikoto, you're welcome."

Shiki shook his head and said.

Mikoto felt warm in her heart.

She even had the urge to adopt him as her godson.

But considering their identities, she didn't say it in the end.

"I'm going back first. I have to hold a clan meeting."

Mikoto patted his head and said, "Come and play when you have time."

"OK."

Shiki readily agreed.

"Auntie will definitely treat you well then."

Mikoto stood up and left.

Shiki scanned the busy conference room, and his final target were the three obvious clans.

Although it was Shikaku Nara who became the Hokage's guard, Shiki was more popular.

You could guess the reason with your intuition.

He has a good son.

Shiki didn't bother.

He didn't really like this passionate scene and would rather go back to the Hokage's office to accompany Tsunade.

"Hokage-sama."

Shiki shouted with a smile as he looked at Tsunade wearing the divine robe.

"You have to call me teacher."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him.

She always thought it was weird that Shiki called her Hokage-sama.

There was an illusion of ill intention.
