Konoha Teken Ning Invincible

Chapter 218 The Death of the Third Generation

After talking with Neji the next night, Third Generation passed away in his sleep.

In the middle of the night, Tsunade was called by Shizune, who also handed her a letter.

"This was sent by Asuma. It was found in the belongings of Lord Third Generation. The signature is for you, Lord Tsunade."

"..."

Tsunade took the letter and opened it to read.

In the letter, Third Generation wrote out all of his political legacy, including those who are trusted old men and those who have ghosts and may be detrimental to the village.

There are also some experience and suggestions of Hokage for decades, all written in the letter.

Finally, Uchiha Itachi, who was in contact with him on a single line, was mentioned.

Third Generation said in the letter that after his death, it doesn't matter if he loses contact with Uchiha Itachi, just make sure that Sasuke is fine. In addition, he said that no matter what, Uchiha Itachi cannot be allowed to return to the village.

After Tsunade saw it, his mood was very mixed.

This letter is only a thousand words, not many, but it embodies Third Generation's decades of Hokage career, which is of course beneficial to her.

only……

The fall of Third Generation is regrettable after all. Although Tsunade was dissatisfied with him in many places in the past, now that people leave, they still feel a little sentimental.

She put the letter away and asked, "Has the obituary been reported?"

"It's already posted." Shizune said, "Third Generation seems to have confessed to his two sons before his death and told them not to hold his funeral. The Sarutobi family has decided that they will simply do it tomorrow morning and bury them in the ground."

"That's fine." Tsunade didn't intend to go to bed anymore, and got up and sat down at the desk.

She read Third Generation's letter carefully twice, put it away, and wondered how she would go next.

She had received Gaara's letter in the afternoon, and she had no objection to the formation of the Ninja Alliance Army to defeat Akatsuki. In fact, I still agree that the existence of Akatsuki is a huge threat after all.

It threatens not only one village and one country, but the entire Ninja Realm. Not to mention, her good friend Jiraiya also died in Akatsuki's hands... This revenge is to be reported.

"Shizune, you said to organize the Ninja Allied Forces, other hidden villages will agree." Tsunade speculated, "Rock Shinobi, Mist Shinobi, Cloud Shinobi. As long as the five hidden villages agree, the other small hidden villages will definitely not have any opinions."

Shizune said, "Ms. Tsunade, Rock Shinobi might not participate, right? Their Jinchūriki seems to be fine. Besides, Rock Shinobi and Konoha have never had a good relationship."

"Well. Except for Rock Shinobi, Cloud Shinobi lost the second tail, Mist Shinobi lost Three Tails..." Tsunade said.

When she said this, she remembered that the loss of these two tail beasts was related to Neji.

"...In short, both of their villages have losses, and they should not be willing to accept it. If the Ninja Alliance's purpose is to destroy Akatsuki and regain the tail beast, I think their two villages are likely to be willing to join."

Shizune nodded: "If Cloud Shinobi and Mist Shinobi join, there will be only Rock Shinobi. To avoid being crowded out or worrying about our four hidden villages forming a military alliance... They must also participate."

"good."

Shizune's guess is the same as Tsunade. Tsuchikage is a very suspicious little old man. If only one of the five hidden villages is not in the league, he will definitely not be able to bear it.

From this point of view, there is some hope for the formation of the Ninja Allied Forces.

but……

Tsunade frowned as he thought of something, "However, this matter is not a decision made by the shadows of a few hidden villages. It must be agreed by the daimyo of the country to which he belongs."

How can the forces of the Ninja Realm coalition and the power of several big hidden villages converge in one place, regardless of the daimyo's opinion?

If the big names of various countries think that this is improper and that the assembly of military forces in the villages is not conducive to stability, then it is likely to be rejected.

If the daimyo fails, the shadow cannot force the formation of a coalition army.

Thinking of this, Tsunade felt frustrated.

She thinks that seventy to eighty percent, the daimyo will not agree.

...

"Neji, did you say that our daimyo would not agree with the establishment of the Ninja Alliance Army? Why?"

Neji, Hanabi, and Tenten are gathering together in the Hyuga patriarch’s mansion.

The two are Neji's "confidantes", and to be precise, Xiao Li can also be trusted. However, since the last time Xiao Li decided not to go with him, but to continue the mission with Kakashi, Neji has reduced his contact with him.

It's not that he is careful, but that Xiao Li should support him at that time.

Of course, he also knew that Xiao Li might not think so much about a tendon...In this case, many things are meaningless to say nothing of it, so he is purely a passionate thug.

When asked by Tenten, Neji explained: “Because Konoha or the Land of Fire has not been attacked, there is no big loss. You think the reason why the Daimyo of the Wind Country agreed with Gaara’s proposal is because Sunagakure was first killed by Deidara. Some were ruined and Orochimaru ruined a lot."

"Yeah!" Tenten's eyes lit up, "Ninja Village is going to be destroyed, and the wind country daimyo will worry about being threatened, right?"

"Sister Tenten is right, I think so too." Hanabi said, "But Konoha is different. Konoha Village has not been attacked or damaged. How can our daimyo be willing to form any coalition... Maybe, it will I am happy because the power of the kingdom of wind has been weakened!"

"This is the truth." Neji nodded in agreement.

From the perspective of the daimyo, our country of fire has nothing to do, and the neighboring country of wind has suffered serious losses. In this way, the national power equivalent to the nation of fire will increase in disguise, which is completely good.

As for the truth of "cold lips and teeth," many people understand, but understanding and being able to prevent it are two different things.

"Then, it seems that this Ninja Allied Forces plan is going to fail." Tenten looked worried.

"I guess so."

Neji thought to himself that even the fierce Tsunade couldn't make a decision against his name. This has nothing to do with personality, it has nothing to do with the system.

To be precise, the affiliation between the village and the state has existed since Senju Hashirama established the Ninja Village system.

Perhaps in terms of strength, ninjas are much stronger than ordinary people. However, in terms of identity, most ninjas only think of themselves as ninjas.

This is a very critical factor, identity.

No matter how strong the person is, if he psychologically agrees that he is a task performer, he is destined to be dominated by someone who is not as strong as him but thinks he is a leader.

On the contrary, if a strong person is born, he should exist as a leader. Then his rise is almost inevitable.

Starting from Senju Hashirama, because their self-identity is a ninja, even if they care about politics, they are only village politics, and they don't care about national politics, so they are subject to the daimyo government everywhere.

This is still the case in the current Tsunade era.

"This is the shortcoming of the daimyo and the ninja system." Neji said, "The military and political branch house will only unite when it hurts. By then, it will be too late.

Neji understands that now that Daimyo disagrees, he has to wait until Nagato finishes attacking Konoha and destroys Konoha all the time. Then he will panic and rush to form a coalition army.

It is not so much for the villagers and revenge, as for the maintenance of the stability of their own status.

"Speaking of this, recently in the country of grass, I heard that the new daimyo announced that it would not establish a shadow, and the ninja village will be managed by the daimyo." As the head of Hyuga, Hanabi, the news is still very clear.

Tenten is relatively slow in this regard, and was very surprised when he heard that: "If you don't set up a shadow? There is actually such a thing."

At this moment, Neji suddenly said: "In the future, there will be more and more such things."

"Hey?"

Tenten didn't understand how Neji would say this, because the latter hadn't told him about his control of Caozhe.

Neji chose not to talk about it for the time being, or the impact of this incident is relatively strong, Tenten may not be able to accept it for the time being... So prepare to wait for a while, and wait for the country of grass to stabilize and the benefits of the new policy, and then tell them, this is even more important. persuasive.

After all, no matter how good or bad the system is, it is not as powerful as judging the people's actual living standards.

The three gossiping for a while, Hanabi looked at the time: "Okay, I'm a little hungry, let's have breakfast, and then go to the funeral of the Third Generation Lord."

After breakfast, the three went to the cemetery together.

By that time, there were already a lot of people coming, and almost all the ninjas with names and surnames in the village came. Everyone was dressed in black, with white flowers in their hands, and looked serious.

The ceremony started very quickly. According to the instructions of Third Generation before the death, Asuma did not do anything to deal with it, but simply read some eulogy, and then let everyone mourn by themselves.

Neji stood at the back of the crowd, looking at the tombstone, feeling calm.

For Third Generation, as a ninja, it is a blessing to be able to die on the bed at home and to die in the company of relatives.

-kun did not see such as Second Generation, the genius was brilliant, and he still died on the battlefield. Fourth Generation died with his wife... In another village, Third Kazekage was assassinated by Sasori, Fourth Kazekage was assassinated by Orochimaru, Fourth Mizukage was controlled by Obito and killed his compatriots, and died in depression. The dead one is more aggrieved than the other.

Compared with these people, Third Generation is worth living for such a long time.

It's just a pity that if you die now, you can be considered dead on the eve of drastic changes. Soon, this era will usher in drastic changes, and it is regrettable not to be able to witness it with my own eyes.

Everyone mourned, sentimentally, many people suppressed the sound of weeping.

At this moment, someone walked in quickly from outside the cemetery, walked to Tsunade's side, and whispered a few words to her.

Tsunade's face changed slightly, and he looked at Neji almost instantly.

She saw Neji looking at the tombstone, her expression indifferent, she didn't know what she was thinking.

As if sensing her gaze, Neji also looked at her, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

Tsunade looked back, and whispered to Anbu who had come to inform her.

Then Anbu nodded and immediately went to Neji and said, "Captain Neji, Master Hokage wants you to go to the office immediately after the funeral."

Neji raised his eyelids: "Why, what happened?"

Anbu hesitated, but still told, "It's Sasuke. Sasuke is missing."
