Chapter 1067: Closed-door meeting
In Konoha Village, in the small conference room of the Naruto Building, four people who control the highest rights of the village sit around a square table.
This is a closed-door meeting and no other patriarchs of Konoha Village are invited to come because the following topic is not suitable for them to hear...
"It's been three months, and there's no news about Orochimaru. It seems that he has left the Fire Country." The first one to speak was Mito Menyan, who held a piece of information provided by Anbu.
In Konoha Village, the four of them control the highest power, such as Mito Menyan and Zhuanyu Koharu. Although they don’t write much about the original work, no one can change their identities at the highest level.
For example, Mido Menyan, as the old subordinate of the second generation of Naruto, he now controls Konoha's diplomacy and logistics, and even finance.
For example, the policies and speeches for other villages must be approved by him. He is also the first person in charge, not to mention logistics and finance, that is the foundation of the village and the top priority.
As for Xiaoharu, she also holds important rights. For example, when communicating with Daming of the Kingdom of Fire, she is fully responsible. Since Tsunade left Konoha, Konoha's medical system was also under her responsibility.
As for the remaining Shimura Danzo and the third generation of Naruto, the rights of the two have been clearly expressed in the original work.
Zhuanyu Koharu continued: "As one of the strongest people in Konoha, Orochimaru has had a huge force for many years, and it is not surprising that he was able to escape. However, he was injured when he broke through the village. Such silent disappearance is really surprising. Could it be that there are other forces to cover it up?" She said with some meaning, and looked at Danzo at the same time.
"Hmph, what do you mean?" Danzo snorted coldly without giving in, "Although I have cooperated with Orochimaru before, it's all for the village. Do you think I'll cover Orochimaru at this time?"
Danzo said in anger that he had not thought about contacting Orochimaru who defected, and even thought about sheltering him, but the ninja he sent out this time did not find Orochimaru's figure at all, which made him angry.
And this happened too suddenly, and Sarutobi Hiruzen took action himself, so he didn't give him enough reaction time, which led to his weakening of his power in Konoha after losing Orochimaru.
Sarutobi spitted out a smoke and said in a deep voice: "Okay, Koharu and Danzo are all their own people. There is no need to argue about such things. I also believe that Danzo's thoughts for the village. I will continue to pay attention to Orochimaru's matter, so that's the end for the time being."
He said tiredly, which was a temporary end to this matter.
Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, but didn't say anything else, instead changing the topic: "Since Hiruzen is talking, let's put Orochimaru's affairs aside for the time being. Instead, we must take another matter carefully. Regarding the Nine-Tail Rebellion last year, everyone will not naively think it was really an accident."
When talking about this topic, everyone's expressions naturally became solemn. To some extent, this was a more serious problem than a war with other villages.
Mito Menyan whispered, "In this matter, Xiaoharu and I have limited understanding. We only know that the seal of the Nine-Tails was man-made to destroy the rest. We don't know the rest. Here, please give Danzang a detailed introduction."
Danzo nodded and took out the materials that had been prepared. "This is all the information we collected in more than a year. What is certain is that that night, a mysterious man broke into a cave produced by Kushina, and all the Anbu sent by Hizawa were killed."
"The mysterious man's age, strength, and gender are unknown. The living Lake Biwa and Amanbe Tianno did not see his appearance clearly. The only four generations of Naruto and Kushina who had fought with him were all killed. This is all the information, and it can be said that there is so pitiful."
Zhuanyu Koharu and Mito Menyan frowned at the same time. Koharu said, "There is too little information, it is impossible to lock the target at all. The only thing that can be confirmed is the Kyuuba that was released by artificially."
"No, that's not the case." At this moment, Sarutobi Hinashen suddenly spoke, took off his pipe, and knocked it on the table a few times to pour out the ashes.
"Although there is very little information, many can be confirmed through inference. First of all, the fact that Kushina's production is itself a secret, and the fact that the other party can obtain this information is itself a doubt.
Secondly, the opponent was able to penetrate Konoha's barrier without any pressure and solve my underworld in a very short time. Their strength should not be underestimated. According to the memories of my wife Biwahu, they did not hear any fighting outside at that time, which shows that the strength gap between the two sides is huge.
The third and most critical point is that the other party knows when the Nine-Tail Seal is weakest and can control the Nine-Tails.”
Sarutobi Hinasar calmly spoke his analysis, took out the tobacco from his pocket and put it in his pipe and lit it.
"Rizhan, what do you mean?" Zhuanyu Xiaochun exclaimed, his eyes full of solemnity.
Danzo responded at this time, "Yes, this is what I mean. Even if there is not enough information, everything in the world is finally traceable. It is not the first time in Konoha's history that Kyushu is manipulated by others. I think everyone knows who I am referring to."
"Uchiha......" Mido Monyan frowned, and some sweat oozed out of his forehead. "If it were them, the problem would be serious. I suggest that you investigate in detail and not act rashly."
Sarutobi Hinako whispered: "I hope it's not them, after all, Uchiha was one of the two tribes who originally established the village, but Kushina said to me before her death, be careful of Uchiha, I have never mentioned this to you, but I think she must know something."
"Is that so? Kushina said this!" Danzo turned his head and looked at him, and then said in a deep voice, "That's even more certain. I have information about the Uchiha clan during the Kyushu Rebellion. Uchiha Fugao and Uchiha Mikoto were not in the clan that night, and their whereabouts were unknown..."
