Chapter 380
There is nothing much to say about the subsequent welcome. They just arrived in front of the Hokage Building and received praise from the Third Hokage. Among them, it is worth mentioning that Shiro and Minato were promoted to elite jonin because of their great military achievements.
After that, there was nothing else. After talking for a while, they dispersed, took a break, and then prepared for the battle!
There was no other way. It took Shiro and his companions a month to return. This time was enough for several other villages to take action. Now the Land of Lightning and the Land of Earth had declared war on the Land of Fire for the same reason.
This means that Konoha is now one against three!
This is also why this triumphal return has to be so grand. The pressure on Konoha is really too great this time, and the villagers need to be more confident.
Therefore, after the welcome party, all the returning ninjas began to prepare for battle again.
At the same time, Shiro and the others were also notified to go to the conference room tomorrow to discuss the war.
After the ceremony, Shiro quickly arranged the two androids and then quickly prepared for tomorrow's meeting.
Having just returned to the village, he needed to understand many things to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, although he was confident that he could force the plan to succeed with his own strength and the help from his meritorious officials.
But if there is a more natural way, that would be great too.
So, that night, Shiro visited Hizashi, the head of the Hyuga branch, the heads of the Ino-Shika-Cho families, Mitokado En, the elder advisor to the Hokage, and Uzumaki Tetsuhashi.
To understand the current situation of the village and the main issues to be discussed tomorrow.
Finally, Shiro secretly contacted the Uchiha clan leader, Fugaku.
The next day, Shiro got up early to check yesterday's preparations to make sure everything was in order.
Afterwards, she took the two androids to the Hokage Building for a meeting. Of course, they stayed downstairs waiting for orders.
Silang arrived quite early, and most people had not arrived yet when he sat down. After that, he sat quietly and watched the rest of the people take their seats one after another.
Finally, with the third generation and elders such as Danzo Mito taking their seats, the meeting officially began!
"I won't go into detail about the content of this meeting. Everyone knows it. Let's get straight to the first topic. I plan to have Tsunade take over as the director of the Ninja Hospital again. Does the Nara clan leader have any objections to this?"
"Of course not. We took over this position temporarily because Lady Tsunade was away. Now we have to hand it back to Lady Tsunade."
Nara Shikaku's father had no objection to the third generation's decision.
Not to mention that the Nara clan itself is a staunch Hokage faction, just from the perspective of ability, Tsunade is more suitable no matter how you look at it.
The reason why their Nara clan was able to take over the ninja hospital after Tsunade left was basically due to their family's huge ability to supply medicinal materials.
If it were peacetime, they could compete with Tsunade, but now, forget it.
Given that Konoha is currently besieged on all sides, Tsunade, who has superb medical skills and an incredibly high reputation among medical ninjas, is the most suitable candidate for the director of the Ninja Hospital.
Moreover, as the Hokage's confidant, he knew something about Tsunade's situation and really couldn't let her go to the battlefield.
Since the current dean has no objection, naturally no other family will have any objection.
In this way, the arrangements regarding Tsunade were decided, and the Third Hokage also discussed the main items of this meeting.
"Very good. Now for the second question, the Thunder Nation's army has already reached the front line. It's only a matter of time before a fight breaks out. So the person in charge of the war zone should make a decision."
"After discussing with several elders, we unanimously decided that the most mobile Namikaze Minato would lead the battle, with Jiraiya and Elder Uzumaki assisting. At the same time,"
At this point, the Third Hokage paused, glanced at Shiro, and continued, "The Cloud Village has two tailed beasts, the Eight-Tailed and the Two-Tailed. Therefore, Kushina will be ready to support the Cloud Village battlefield at any time!"
"If the other villages also send out their tailed beasts, I'll have to trouble you, Shiro. Is that okay?"
Facing the gazes of everyone in the conference room, Shiro shrugged: "Okay, Shukaku is still easy to talk to."
The Third Generation nodded in satisfaction and asked, "That's about all I have to say about the Thunder Country battlefield. Does anyone have anything to add?"
Without a doubt. It passed unanimously again.
This meeting was supposedly a discussion, but in reality it was more like a notification. All of this had been agreed upon by the advisors and the Hokage. Who would object? It was just a formality.
Of course, this only applies to the first two decisions. The third one, after the decisive battle in the Wind Kingdom, has become highly controversial.
"I plan to continue to let Orochimaru handle the battle for the Land of Earth. He has ample experience in this area, I think..."
"Are you going to rely on that trick of playing with the dead again?"
Sure enough, before the Third Generation finished speaking, someone below whispered something. However, the people here were all powerful ninjas, and it was such an environment, how could they not hear it?
So, everyone looked at the Third Generation, Orochimaru, and that ignorant idiot with different expressions.
Shiro was also among them, but after taking a look at that guy, Shiro and Minato Tetsuji and the others looked at each other with understanding and smiled at each other.
This guy is a stranger, which is nothing. It was just a war, and it has come to a small end. It is normal for someone to rise up, and it is understandable that some of them are lucky idiots.
However, what is even more convincing is the subtle mark of the tongue that eradicates evil.
This thing can explain the problem better than anything else.
However, only the Uzumaki clan and Minato who were proficient in sealing techniques, and Shiro who was proficient in analysis noticed this. The other senior leaders, including the third generation, did not discover this.
Therefore, the rest of the people were looking at the Sandai, waiting for his decision, while Danzo sat quietly on the side, watching his heart with his nose and eyes.
Shiro believed that Sandai would mention it here, which meant that Sandai already had a plan in mind and had even convinced the other consultants, but he still wanted to intervene.
Shiro doesn't want to gamble that the third generation's ideas will go his way. He just wants to follow his own plan. Even if it is naive, he will use his strength to carry out this naivety to the end!
So, when Sandai was about to open his mouth to explain, Shiro spoke up.
"Regarding this, I feel it's necessary to explain that I had no choice but to use that technique on the battlefield this time."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Shiro as if he was a fool. You're telling me that the fight with the hanging hammer was forced?
What about capturing Shukaku alive? What about him single-handedly taking on all the Sand Ninja? What about him single-handedly fighting off the two great elders of Sand Village and swiftly killing them?
Facing everyone's rolling eyes, Shiro calmly placed his hands on the table and lifted his chin.
"Before I explain, I want to ask someone, Patriarch Fugaku, can you explain why you are so leisurely staying here when the war in the Land of Water is so tense?"
"And what about the Uchiha clan openly letting up on the battlefield and fighting passively?"
