Volume 1 Chapter 269: Everything has its surprises, assassination is purely an accident
As soon as he left the Mizukage's office building, the enemy sneaked in and directly attacked the Third Mizukage.
Then he led his men to chase after him, but he didn't even see the figure of Hatake Sakumo.
This caused many people who had conflicts with Yagura to secretly sneer at him.
It is said that when Yagura was hunting down his own people, his methods were extremely powerful, but when it came to ninjas from other villages, they became cowards.
After all, Yagura worked for the Third Mizukage in the past and killed many ninjas in the village, thus offending many people.
When he is in trouble, these people definitely don't mind jumping out and stepping on him.
The Master knew that Yagura was upset and had no intention of trying to persuade him.
He just sighed that there were so many geniuses in Konoha, and every generation had geniuses who were famous in the ninja world rising.
And in the Mist Village...such strong people rarely appear. Even if there are, they may disappear before they can grow up.
It was strangled in the cradle by its own people.
Let's compare and look at the strong men of each generation in Konoha. The first generation includes Hashirama Senju, Uchiha Madara, and Tobirama Senju. The second generation includes the Third Hokage, Danzo, Uchiha Kagami and others.
The third generation includes Hatake Sakumo, one of the three ninjas.
The fourth generation Chizuki Minato and others have grown up.
In comparison, the Mist Village seems a little pitiful.
There are very few strong people who are famous and renowned in the ninja world.
It's not just the Mist Village. Even the Cloud Village and the Iwagakure Village, whose military strength is not weaker than Konoha, are much worse than Konoha in this regard.
"Hatake Sakumo chose to flee to the Land of Lightning, while our people are searching on the sea. Searching in the direction close to the Land of Fire is just a waste of time. I'm afraid that by now Hatake Sakumo has returned to Konoha."
"Mizukage-sama, are you still obsessed with starting a war?"
The master had a headache. Before the Third Mizukage recovered, he was like a bloodthirsty madman who would kill anyone he disliked.
Now, he finally recovered, but then he encountered the infiltration of Hatake Sakumo, which directly led to the Third Mizukage declaring war on Konoha.
"Um."
When this was mentioned, Yagura nodded dully.
It was because of his persuasion on this matter that he was scolded by the Third Mizukage. It was just that he had lost Hatake Sakumo, and the matter was not that serious.
I think there's something wrong with Mizukage-sama!
Yagura kept this sentence in his heart, and hesitated again and again, but ultimately couldn't say it out loud.
Because he had no evidence, all this was just Yagura's personal suspicion.
Saying such things without any evidence, some people might even think that Yagura was blamed for dereliction of duty, felt resentful after being scolded, and deliberately suspected the Third Mizukage.
"Oh~~~ I hope there will be a good result."
The Third Mizukage was determined to start a war, and there was nothing he could do to stop him.
Even though he has considerable power, the Mizukage is still the most respected person in the Mist Village.
At this moment, Master Yuan could only hope that Konoha would send a negotiation team to negotiate with the village to avoid the outbreak of war.
Once a war breaks out, it will not be good for Konoha, nor for the Mist Village.
It had only been two or three years since the Second Ninja World War ended, and Konoha was busy recuperating, and the Mist Village was not much better.
Although they did not participate in the Ninja War, the brutal blood mist rule caused heavy losses to the ninjas of the Mist Village.
If we start a war under such circumstances, let alone teach Konoha a lesson, it would be a good thing if we are not chased and beaten by Konoha.
Even after the war ends, a heavy war reparations may be paid.
Even though Konoha had just experienced the Second Ninja World War, the master would not be naive enough to think that the Mist Village could defeat Konoha.
Finally back.
After returning to Konoha safely, Hatake Sakumo felt mixed emotions.
He never dreamed that he would run into the Third Mizukage when he sneaked in, and he ran into him in the toilet at that.
The atmosphere at that time was simply amazing.
"Hokage-sama."
After returning to Konoha, Hatake Sakumo went to the Hokage's office building as soon as possible, even though it was late at night.
"Thanks a lot."
When Hatake Sakumo returned, the Anbu immediately notified the Third Hokage.
The Third Hokage also sent someone to invite Tsunade, Koharu Utane and others to the Hokage's office.
The Mist Village has urged several times, this matter must have a result.
"Let's take a rest first. We'll talk about everything after the others arrive."
It can be seen that Hatake Sakumo was very tired. The Third Hokage did not immediately start asking about what happened in the Mist Village, but gave Hatake Sakumo some rest time.
After receiving the notice, even though Tsunade was very impatient, she had to get dressed and come to the Hokage's office.
The others arrived before her, with Tsunade being the last to arrive.
"Everyone is here. Sakumo, tell us what happened in the Mist Village first."
Everything that was supposed to come had come, and the Third Hokage signaled to Hatake Sakumo that he could begin.
In fact, there are quite a few members in the Elders' Council. In addition to Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En, there are also Akimichi Torikaze and the deceased Uchiha Kagami.
Uchiha Kagami is already dead, but Akimichi Tofu is unwilling to show up and just wants to be a quiet fat man who eats and drinks.
Unless there is something important, it will not appear easily.
This resulted in Utane Koharu and Mitokado En becoming the representatives of the Elders Council. As long as anything involved the Elders Council, the two of them could make the final decision.
"Before we begin, I want to ask you one question."
Utatane Koharu asked Hatake Sakumo:
"Sakumo, the village assigned you a mission to gather intelligence, but the Mist Village suddenly sent a document to Konoha, saying that you assassinated the Third Mizukage. What do you want to say about this?"
"I did not assassinate the Third Mizukage."
Hatake Sakumo shook his head and said affirmatively:
"It was just that when I was sneaking in, I ran into the Third Mizukage and had no choice but to take action. Then I fled and escaped from the Mist Village as quickly as possible."
"So........."
"Don't talk about this or that. Let the senior finish speaking first! Ask again after he finishes speaking!!"
Tsunade was the first to jump up and object.
Hatake Sakumo hasn't even started talking yet, why are you still blabbering on and on?
After I finish speaking, if you have any questions, why don’t you ask?
Really, you act like an elder, as if you're afraid that others don't know that you have power.
"I........"
Utatane Koharu didn't expect that she would just ask a few normal questions, but Tsunade would jump out and contradict her. Before she could continue, the Third Hokage spoke first:
"Okay, if you have any questions, wait for Sakumo to finish speaking first."
It's really discordant.
Tsunade was always at odds with the Elders, and Hatake Sakumo knew it, but he didn't expect the relationship between the two sides to be so bad.
Although he also didn't like Koharu Utane chasing him and asking questions.
If you have any questions, please wait for me to finish speaking before asking, okay?
The Third Hokage intervened and Utane Koharu and Tsunade stopped talking.
At this moment, Hatake Sakumo spoke:
"I sneaked into the Mist Village with the village's mission and collected a lot of important information. The Third Mizukage of the Mist Village may not be able to hold on for too long. His mental state is also very poor. He is irritable, violent and bloodthirsty."
"After I hid in the Mist Village, I soon learned that the Third Mizukage had recovered.
So I decided to sneak into the Mizukage office building to obtain more important information."
"It's just that I didn't expect......"
Speaking of this, Hatake Sakumo felt a little bit embarrassed.
