Volume 1 Chapter 270 He ran faster than my knife with his pants up
The Third Hokage saw that Hatake Sakumo was a little embarrassed to speak, so he persuaded him:
"Sakumo, just tell me everything. There's no need to feel any psychological burden."
Now that the boss has spoken, why should I still be hesitant?
Hatake Sakumo continued:
"I avoided the Anbu and successfully sneaked into the Mizukage's office building, but I didn't expect to run into the Third Mizukage who was using the restroom in the bathroom."
“........”
What a coincidence?
The Third Hokage was stunned for a moment.
Others had similar reactions.
“The Third Mizukage was once the bodyguard of the First Mizukage and was very powerful.
After bumping into the opponent, I knew that once I was exposed, a big fight was inevitable, so I took the initiative to attack.
But I didn't expect that the Third Mizukage would run away with his pants in his hands."
“........”
“Ahem!!!”
Compared to the dumbfounded Third Hokage and others, Tsunade's eyes widened as she asked in surprise:
"Senior, I don't mean anything else. I just want to know, why did the Third Mizukage not fight back but ran away with his pants up?"
"Exactly."
Not to mention other people, even Hatake Sakumo himself found it unbelievable, but the Third Mizukage really ran away with his pants up at that time.
That speed is faster than my knife.
Rubbing his face with an awkward expression, Hatake Sakumo smiled bitterly and said:
"Yes, then I dealt with a lot of pursuing enemies along the way, entered the Land of Lightning in the opposite direction, and took a detour back to Konoha."
"This is the information I collected in the Mist Village."
After saying that, Hatake Sakumo took out several intelligence scrolls and placed them on the desk of the Third Hokage.
Apart from the encounter with the Third Mizukage, Hatake Sakumo's mission this time was considered accomplished.
The Third Mizukage was a complete accident.
Who would have thought that when sneaking in, they would run into the Third Mizukage who was trying hard to defecate?
"They were just forced to attack, and then quickly evacuated. This is not an assassination. So how should the Mist Village respond to them?"
If this is considered an assassination, then Hatake Sakumo will die unjustly.
The Third Hokage would not put the blame on Hatake Sakumo.
Even if Danzo and the elders wanted to discredit Hatake Sakumo, they couldn't accuse him of such a crime. Otherwise, if the news got out, people would definitely laugh to death.
"Just tell them that this is all a misunderstanding and there is no assassination. As for whether the Kirigakure believes it or not, it's up to them."
Tsunade was the first to voice her opinion.
Since the assassination failed, why bother with the Mist Village?
Just talk nonsense.
If you in the Mist Village have the guts, then declare war. I, Konoha, will not be scared of anyone.
The assassination charge was not proven, Hatake Sakumo breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Tsunade with gratitude.
He nodded as a way of thanking Tsunade for speaking up for him.
Tsunade gave Hatake Sakumo a reassuring look.
No matter what others think, Tsunade will not allow such a crime to be pinned on Hatake Sakumo without any reason.
Not only was Hatake Sakumo not at fault, he actually did something meritorious.
What about you?
The Third Hokage looked towards the elders and the Hokage's assistant Danzo.
"I agree with what Tsunade said."
Danzo slowly raised his head. As a hawkish person, he had to stand firm in his faction.
At a time like this, we must never bow to the Mist Village, even if war breaks out as a result.
He, Danzo, must stand firm in his position.
Besides, if a war really breaks out, it will only benefit Danzo, not harm him.
Once a war breaks out, Danzo can openly throw dirty water on Hatake Sakumo.
No matter what the village decides, the matter was caused by you, Hatake Sakumo, and you can't shirk it.
You have to take the blame for this.
As long as Hatake Sakumo takes the blame, Danzo will make sure he never has a chance to turn things around.
The villagers will not accept someone who brings great losses to the village to become Hokage.
Even if he didn't mean it.
“Second.”
The Elders are currently on the same side as Danzo. Danzo has expressed his stance, and Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En will not deliberately cause trouble for Hatake Sakumo.
"Then I will send someone to reply to the Mist Village."
Since everyone agrees that the assassination is not true, the Third Hokage does not need to continue to consider these things, and can just argue with the Mist Village.
Maybe after a while, the Mist Village will let this matter go.
Konoha doesn't want to fight a confusing war, and the Third Hokage believes that the Mist Village doesn't want to do the same.
What he couldn't imagine was that the situation in the Mist Village was different from that in Konoha.
The Third Mizukage is no longer the Third Mizukage who cared about the Mist Village, but a controlled and unscrupulous madman!
"Tsunade, thank you."
"You are too polite, Senior. This is what I should do."
Tsunade knew Hatake Sakumo's personality and knew that he was not the kind of person who was good at making sensational remarks.
If there is a favor, Hatake Sakumo will remember it in his heart and choose to repay it when the time is right.
But it's a bit difficult for him to say a lot of nice things.
Tsunade waved her hand and smiled:
"Senior, you have done a great job this time. It is not easy to travel back and forth. You should go back and rest early and accompany Kakashi."
"good."
Hatake Sakumo didn't refuse. He smiled, nodded, and turned to leave.
Although he is a few years older than the Sannin, they all grew up in the same era and are quite familiar with and understand each other.
After leaving the village for a while, he really missed his son.
"I don't know how Kakashi is doing lately."
Is it time to find him a teacher?
Hatake Sakumo admits that he is very outstanding, but an excellent person may not necessarily become a good teacher.
When he thought about his son's personality becoming a little strange because of him, Hatake Sakumo could only smile bitterly.
If Kakashi doesn't correct his character, he might get into trouble in the future.
If I want to find a teacher, who should I look for?
Three ninjas?
While other children were still playing and worrying about how to pass the ninja school entrance examination, Hatake Sakumo had already begun selecting a strong and suitable teacher for his son to teach Kakashi.
There is never any fairness in a person's life, and this is especially evident in the lives of civilian ninjas and family ninjas.
The growth path for civilian ninjas is full of hardships. They need to work hard for money, for ninjutsu, and for a good teacher.
However, family ninjas never need to consider these things. With the support of their family, they have the best conditions and can find the best and most suitable teachers to guide their own growth.
Konoha's reply came.
Unfortunately, Konoha’s response did not satisfy the Mist Village.
It was all just a misunderstanding. It was just spying, not an assassination.
