Chapter 122

Her gaze was bland, and she said coldly: "The three-day deadline has arrived, the Land of Whirlpools has come to take back the Uzumaki clansmen!"

"Will you, Konoha, hand them over obediently, or will we, the Land of Whirlpools, take them ourselves?"

"You!"

Homura Mitokado was angry in his heart, very annoyed by Rukia Kuchiki's contemptuous tone, and immediately wanted to step forward.

But soon he was stopped by Konohamaru Utatane.

Konohamaru Utatane was also very annoyed by Rukia Kuchiki's tone, and a nameless fire rose in her heart.

But she glanced at the silent Hiruzen Sarutobi, not knowing his decision, and could only temporarily suppress her anger, taking the opportunity to stop Homura Mitokado.

Other Konoha ninjas also glared, their chests heaving, holding back a breath of anger!

It has always been them, Konoha, showing off in the Ninja World; when have they ever been blocked at home and insulted?

During the First Hokage period, when people from Konoha went out, people from other countries didn't dare to speak loudly when they saw them!

When have they ever suffered this kind of anger?

But they also understood that the current Konoha is different from before.

Ever since the First Hokage passed away, any ninja village can provoke Konoha!

The current Konoha is even more mired in the war with the Sand Village, with insufficient military strength.

Therefore, these Konoha ninjas had bloodshot eyes, looking at the dense Soul Reaper army behind that golden giant gate.

They can still endure it a little longer!

But only a little bit, no more!

At this time, the Konoha villagers finally noticed some problems.

Something is wrong!

Something is very wrong!

Isn't this Land of Whirlpools an ally of their Konoha?

Isn't it here to be a guest in Konoha?

Looking at this, how does it look a bit like they are looking for trouble?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was silent for a while, calming the anger in his heart.

As the Third Hokage of Konoha, this is the first time someone has dared to speak to him like this!

And it's still a girl who looks younger than Tsunade!

But!

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his angry emotions.

Although in his view, Konoha's high-end strength advantage is in Konoha.

But the mid-to-low-level military strength is a bit lacking.

And the location they are in now is within Konoha Village; once a war breaks out, it will cause no small loss to Konoha.

Even many villagers will be affected by the battle.

As the Hokage of Konoha, he must be responsible for Konoha, responsible for the villagers of Konoha!

For these, he can still endure it a little longer!

He forcibly squeezed out a smile and said: "Regarding the matter of Uzumaki Kushina, I think we can discuss it again."

Land of Whirlpools, Seireitei.

Xuan Yuan Qian Jiu Xun's eyes widened slightly, carefully watching the image of Konoha on the monitor.

Especially the appearance of Hiruzen Sarutobi, it really opened his eyes completely!

Is this really the shadow of a village?

It's already humiliating you at your home! It's like being NTR'd, and yet you can still endure it? Can still continue to be submissive?!

This really doesn't even want his face!

At least the Third Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village died standing up!

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, truly worthy of being a Ninja Hero!"

No wonder so many absurd things happened in Konoha in the original work.

With such a leader, it's impossible not to be chaotic!

Konoha, Konohamaru Utatane and Homura Mitokado also looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi like this in disbelief.

It seems like it was the first time they discovered that Hiruzen Sarutobi had this side!

Ninja Hero!

This title is not a derogatory term!

Judging from Hiruzen Sarutobi's various performances, he is indeed worthy of this title.

But today...

Maybe it was just for the safety of the Konoha villagers that Hiruzen Sarutobi made such a compromise...

Konohamaru Utatane and Homura Mitokado comforted themselves like this, but in their hearts, there was a trace of hesitation.

Orochimaru was also surprised for a moment, and then fell into silence.

Teacher, have you also grown old?

Lost your past ambition?

He suddenly remembered a sentence Teacher Hiruzen always kept on his lips: Orochimaru, after I get old, the position of Fourth Hokage will be yours.

Now it seems, if the Hokage is like this.

It seems that this position of Hokage is not that attractive to him.

Tsunade's expression did not change at all.

Perhaps she was the one who saw Hiruzen Sarutobi's changes most clearly.

For Hiruzen Sarutobi to be able to make this move, she was not disappointed, nor surprised.

After all, she has seen too many shameless things done, and she has seen too much, so she is numb.

Can only sigh from time to time in her heart.

Grand-uncle, look at what kind of people you handed Konoha over to!

But in Tsunade's view, Shimura Danzo, Konohamaru Utatane, and Homura Mitokado are not good things either,

Completely birds of a feather!

Her grand-uncle was wise for a lifetime, invented various forbidden techniques, founded various policies, and led the entire Ninja World to produce new developments.

But his vision was not very good; the good reputation and Konoha were all ruined by a few disciples.

The only one who looked pretty good happened to be an Uchiha.

Moreover, that Uchiha Kagami also sacrificed in a mission with Shimura Danzo.

This Konoha, the smell of decay is getting stronger and stronger.

Root base.

Gloomy laughter suddenly rang out in the dark underground.

"Haha, Hiruzen, you are old after all, actually making such a muddled decision!"

Shimura Danzo unreservedly mocked Hiruzen Sarutobi like this!

"If it were me sitting in that position, I would definitely not be as submissive as Hiruzen! Hmph!"

Although he said so, at this time Konoha is facing a crisis, Shimura Danzo still has no idea of sending out Root.

A cold light flashed in his single eye, and he muttered to himself: "I am doing this for Konoha!"

Konoha East Street.

Rukia Kuchiki was also shocked by Hiruzen Sarutobi's shamelessness.

She frowned and said: "You old guy, are you really the shadow of a village?"

This was the first time she had seen such a leader without dignity, such a strong person without shame!

"Nawaki?!"

Just at this moment, Tsunade suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone's gaze!

Tsunade was just looking at the Soul Reaper army out of boredom, but she actually saw a very familiar face.

That short brown hair, the iconic two red cheeks, who else could it be but Nawaki?

It's just that the current Nawaki has undergone huge changes compared to when he was in Konoha before!

Not only has he grown a lot taller, but he is also wearing a steady black Shinigami uniform, with a sword at his waist, looking like something.

This change made Tsunade subconsciously a bit afraid to recognize him.
