Chapter 594: Konoha's Tradition
Kong became a monk at a young age and has a relatively simple mind, but he is not a fool. He can understand what Asuma means when he talks around the subject.
He didn't care how many people would die after the fallout between Konoha Village and the Daimyo. The Fire Temple practiced Buddhism for its own original intention and focused on itself. They didn't care whether the common people lived or died.
Kong kept asking about the truth behind his father's death. Was it the work of a Konoha ninja?
Not to mention Asuma, even Shikamaru standing beside him didn't dare to guarantee it.
It's unlikely to say "No such thing?"
From Konoha's perspective, Kazuma encouraged the daimyo to "work hard to govern the country" whenever he had something to do, either by cutting Konoha Village's military funding or by training ninjas loyal to the daimyo. This was 100% an enemy, a class enemy at that! It was perfectly normal for Konoha to send someone to kill him.
Asuma calculated the time and concluded that Kazuma's death should have happened during Jiraiya's tenure as Hokage. He thought there was nothing wrong with this way of handling the matter. If his biological father, the Third Hokage, had done this, haha, let alone Kazuma, his empty grave might have been overgrown with grass by now.
Asuma was extremely suspicious that when the Twelve Guardian Ninjas split into two factions and fought among themselves, Konoha was secretly involved.
Of course, the Twelve Warriors all thought that he was the pawn sent by Konoha to sow discord, but in reality he was not. Sora did not get the accurate answer he wanted, so he waved his sleeves and left the Sarutobi family angrily.
"Teacher?" Shikamaru asked tentatively.
It’s not that Shikamaru is cruel and ruthless, but that’s the characteristic of the ninja profession.
Asuma thought for a moment and said, "I will inform Dilu and let him handle it."
The Fire Temple is undoubtedly a friendly daimyo, but the ninja village has an overwhelming combat power advantage, and the two sides can maintain a relatively harmonious relationship. Sora comes from the Fire Temple, and if Konoha kills him quietly, it will destroy the tacit understanding between the two sides.
Konoha must have done all kinds of insidious things, and done a lot of them, but it is not worth crossing the bottom line again for a seemingly ordinary 15-year-old ninja monk.
Kong left Konoha Village alone, and not long after leaving the village, Zetsu emerged from the darkness.
The two had met once before, and it was Zetsu, the troublemaker, who told him that Kazuma was Sora's father and that he died at the hands of a Konoha ninja.
"You're right, Konoha is indeed the murderer of my father, I will never let them go!" The Nine-Tails Chakra in Kong's body tended to boil with his anger.
Jue smiled sinisterly. This fifteen-year-old boy was so easy to fool. He didn't need too much explanation. As long as he saw with his own eyes what he thought was the "truth", he would make up the rest of the content in his mind. It was the same with Obito and now with this boy.
After Tuntun left Deidara's sight, dragging the toy car, he quickly went to find Tsunade.
As it turns out, Tsunade's alcohol tolerance is really average.
Even without the two bottles of wine that Tuntun had just bought, she was drunk.
"Puyou Puyou!" Tuntun called for a long time and even bit Tsunade's calf lightly, but failed to wake up this unreliable master.
What should I do? I am a pig, but I have to take on the responsibility of protecting Konoha Village. It is so hard for me! Tuntun sighed very humanely.
Having trouble finding the Hokage?
This is true, but as a pig, would it also go to find the Hokage?
Tuntun is worried that the Hokage doesn’t understand what he is saying!
Tsunade was drunk, Shizune was out of the village on a mission, and Ino was not in the village either.
It was so anxious that it turned around everywhere, and finally climbed onto the roof, put its hands on the pergola, and looked around to see if there were any familiar people around.
Believe it or not, it soon saw a familiar face, Hinata!
Hinata can be considered a family member of Tsunade's team and can understand some of what Tuntun says.
The pet pig's hooves flew off to look for Hinata.
At this time, Hinata and Sakura were having supper in a store.
Sakura couldn't sleep because of the huge ransom fee of 120 million taels, and she even developed anxiety. She wanted to get some help from Hinata. I'll treat you to a meal, and you try to persuade your wild boar!
Hinata was easy to talk to, and smiled as she said she would help persuade them, but she couldn't say how effective it would be.
After finishing the business, Sakura started chatting with Hinata.
As a civilian ninja, she had few channels for obtaining information, and Sakura happened to be a bit of a gossip.
"After the Fourth Hokage, will Naruto be the Hokage?" She asked a question that has been widely circulated in the village recently.
"I don't know either."
"Let's talk about this in private. I will never tell anyone else." Sakura vowed.
Hinata herself comes from a wealthy family in Hyuga, and Ino and Utane Koharu are both high-ranking officials in the village. If they just give her some information, she will be able to crush a commoner like Sakura.
Facing Sakura's eager eyes, Hinata shook her head gently: "I think it's unlikely. Naruto-kun works really hard, but the current Hokage is his father. Not to mention the first and second generations, since the third generation, Konoha has always been a master-disciple inheritance, and there has never been a father-son inheritance. Even if Kakashi-sensei becomes the sixth generation, Naruto-kun is unlikely to become Hokage. He and Kakashi-sensei are not strictly a master-disciple relationship. Sasuke-kun actually has greater hopes than him."
Sakura was counting on her fingers the relationship between the third, fourth, fifth and sixth generations. Suddenly she heard Sasuke's name and became excited: "Really? There's hope for Sasuke too?!"
In a trance, she seemed to see herself becoming the wife of Hokage and then embezzling public funds! Sakura shook her head vigorously, saying that she didn't like money at all, and it was Inobo who forced her to do it! Hinata smiled, in fact, Sasuke couldn't do it either. As long as her teacher, Koharu Utatane, was still alive, she would never let an Uchiha become Hokage, and she wouldn't even give Sasuke the qualification to be a candidate.
But Konoha has indeed been a master-disciple inheritance over the years. If the future Sixth Generation Kakashi has only Sasuke as his official disciple, and Sasuke cannot become Hokage, the inheritance right must be calculated from the back to the past.
The sixth generation's disciples are not acceptable. Does the fifth generation have any disciples? Jiraiya did not formally accept Naruto as his apprentice in this timeline, so Naruto cannot be counted as his disciple. Does Jiraiya have other disciples? Yes, Konan, Yahiko? These are all from other villages! Did all the ninjas of Konoha die? Let someone from another village be the Hokage? Jiraiya was rejected.
Who else was the disciple of the Fourth Generation? Obito? No, I'll ignore him.
Who are the other disciples of the Third Hokage? Will Tsunade and Orochimaru take the throne? If they don't, their disciples will have a great chance to inherit the position of Hokage after Kakashi.
Going further back, the disciples of the second generation Hokage also had the right of inheritance. Similarly, the disciples of the second generation disciples, such as Hinata, all had the right of inheritance.
This is the order of inheritance in Konoha, an established tradition.
