Chapter 317 Mitokado Homura's Arrangements
As evening fell, Kyosuke returned to Konoha. He sent his shadow clones to the hospital with Obito and Shisui, while he went directly to Mitokado Homura's house.
With the Hokage away from Konoha, the only people in charge of the village are the three advisors. However, Kyosuke doesn't trust Danzo at all, so he goes to find Mitokado Homura first.
Mitokado was about to have dinner with his family when he suddenly stopped eating.
"You guys eat first, I'm going out for a walk."
Stepping out of the room, Mitokado Homura went to a corner of the courtyard and looked at the shadow on the wall.
"Kyosuke, have you come to me now to convey the Hokage's orders?"
The shadow on the wall wriggled and transformed into Kyosuke's appearance.
"Lord Menyan, the Akatsuki has taken the Nine-Tails, and the two Hokage are in pursuit. I now order you to send reinforcements immediately."
"What?! This actually happened!"
Mitokado Yan frowned, feeling quite surprised.
As an advisor to Konoha, he had access to many secrets and knew information about Amegakure, the Akatsuki organization, and the Rinnegan.
After a brief moment of thought, Mitokado Homura immediately said, "This matter is of great importance. We must proceed with caution, or it will cause panic. Kyosuke, I know your Shadow Clone Technique is excellent. I'll give you a list. You personally contact these people and notify them to attend a meeting at the Hokage Building."
"Yes!"
Kyosuke understood what Mitokado Homura meant. Now that the Hokage was away, some people might take the opportunity to cause trouble, so he planned to contact someone he trusted first.
Before this, the news must not be leaked.
As expected, Mitokado Homura approached Kyosuke and whispered a few names. These were all prominent figures among the Konoha ninja, but Danzo and Uchiha Fugaku were not among them.
Kyosuke immediately set off, sending out shadow clones to make contact.
A dozen minutes later, more than a dozen ninjas were already standing inside the Hokage Building.
Besides Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, the group also includes several ANBU captains, representatives of powerful clans such as Ino-Shika-Cho, and several trustworthy Jonin.
These people can be considered the direct descendants of the Hokage's faction, and even the two advisors find it difficult to directly order them to do things.
Therefore, Mitokado Homura had Kyosuke explain the details before he spoke to persuade everyone: "This matter is extremely urgent. We should immediately dispatch a powerful pursuing force as requested by the Hokage."
Everyone present nodded, ready to obey the Hokage's orders.
However, they also had some doubts.
Nara Shikaku said in a deep voice, "It's unbelievable that the Akatsuki were able to bypass layers of security, approach Konoha silently, and accurately locate the Nine-Tails. There must be an inside agent who helped them obtain our classified information. Once our main force is deployed, there might be other risks."
A masked ANBU captain immediately retorted, "No matter the risks, we must go to support the Hokage! As long as the Hokage is safe, everything else is not a problem; otherwise, we will face real problems."
The two men's remarks made everyone's expressions even more serious. Although no one was arguing, it was clear that everyone was conflicted.
The most terrifying enemy is the one you can't see from within. People aren't afraid of fighting to the death, but they are afraid of being stabbed in the back.
While waiting for everyone, Mitokado Homura had already made up his mind, and at this opportune moment, he spoke up, saying, "I have already sent people to contact Danzo and Uchiha Fugaku. The ninjas under their command are very strong, and now is the time when they are needed to contribute to Konoha."
At the front of the crowd, Akimichi Torifu looked at Mitokado Homura and asked, "What if Danzo and Fugaku disobey orders?"
Mitokado Homura didn't speak, but Koharu Utatane, who was standing next to him, answered in a calm tone.
"The Hokage's orders must be obeyed, otherwise they are not qualified to call themselves Konoha ninjas."
If they are not Konoha ninjas, then they are rogue ninjas, and everyone has the right to kill them.
Everyone understood the meaning behind Koharu Utatane's words and realized why Danzo and Fugaku Uchiha were asked to come later.
This was to get everyone to agree on a position first, and then coerce the two of them, not allowing them to refuse unless they wanted to rebel immediately and become the target of everyone's criticism.
Within Konoha, only Fugaku Uchiha and Danzo have the strength and motivation to cause destruction. Once they are subdued, it will be much easier to suppress the others, and the risk of internal problems will be minimized.
After Xiaochun, who had just finished speaking, the meeting room fell silent.
Since things have come to this point and they are not prepared to object, we can only proceed according to the two advisors' wishes.
Hopefully, Danzo and the Uchiha clan can calm down, otherwise they might have to fight each other.
Without realizing it, they started complaining about the two Hokage again, saying that if only one of them had stayed behind to keep things under control, there wouldn't have been so much trouble.
Thinking of this, everyone was once again surprised by the strength of the Akatsuki organization.
The fact that even two Hokage couldn't defeat the opponent and had to call in powerful reinforcements is a privilege usually reserved for the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
While everyone was pondering, Kyosuke stood silently in an inconspicuous corner, quietly watching the events unfold, thinking to himself, "I've learned something, I've learned something. These higher-ups are all old foxes."
Especially Akimichi Torifu, you've been friends with the Third Hokage, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu since childhood. You probably saw through Mitokado Homura's plan long ago. The question you asked just now was definitely to cooperate with Mitokado Homura, to make things clear and completely eliminate any lingering hope in everyone's hearts.
At this moment, an Anbu member was leading Danzo toward the Hokage Building.
"Lord Danzo, please hurry, Lord Monjo is very anxious."
Mitomon Homura played a trick, not sending Kyosuke to inform Danzo, but instead sending other members of the Anbu.
Hearing the urging, Danzo snorted coldly: "What's the rush? The Hokage is in charge of everything. What is it that requires my attention?"
The Dark Guard simply shook his head: "Lord Menyan only said that he had an urgent matter to discuss with you, and I don't know anything else."
The Anbu did not deceive Danzo. That was what Mitokado Homura said when he summoned him alone. As for other matters, this Anbu was unaware of them.
This was done to prevent Danzo from discovering any flaws in their plan.
Danzo appeared angry, but was secretly overjoyed, and his pace quickened unconsciously.
Kyosuke rushed back to Konoha, and Danzo has not yet received any new information about Kushina.
Upon receiving a message from Mitokado Homura, Danzo assumed that the Akatsuki was engaged in a major battle with the two Hokage and that Mitokado Homura was seeking his advice on how to eliminate the Akatsuki.
It seems that the Akatsuki organization does indeed have some strength, making Hiruzen feel troubled and prompting Konoha to start making preparations.
When I see Men Yan, I must do my best to buy time for the Akatsuki, and ideally make them both severely injured. Then I can seize the Rinnegan!
If something happens to Hiruzen and that brat Minato, hehehe, I can avenge them and lead Konoha to glory.
Imagining the wonderful scene of being a fisherman, Danzo was in a good mood the whole way, and he couldn't help but smile. But as soon as he stepped into the meeting room, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
All eyes fell on Danzo, as if a mountain of giant rocks had been piled up and pressed down on him. Danzo felt his body sink and unconsciously stopped in his tracks.
Why are there so many people? The atmosphere is off!
not good!
