Uchiha Tokko opened the door and walked into the Hokage's office.
Hatake Sakumo and Orochimaru then walked in.
"Hokage-sama."
Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded to the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sitting on the high seat.
The third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled kindly in return.
"Two advisors..."
Mito Kadoen and Koharu, who was transferred to the dormitory, also nodded in response.
"Tsunade-hime, good morning~"
Finally, Uchiha Tokko said hello to Tsunade, who had a look of worry on her face.
"Good day, Tokumitsu-san..."
No matter how unhappy she felt, Tsunade still followed etiquette and responded.
Then Uchiha Tokumitsu casually pulled up a chair and sat down. As for the pale Daimyo envoy who was wearing court clothes, Uchiha Tokumitsu pretended not to see him.
Hatake Sakumo and Orochimaru also felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so they quietly sat down and prepared to watch the show.
Under the influence of Uchiha Tokumitsu, Hatake Sakumo also has a tendency to develop into a fun person.
And Orochimaru had just received a vague investment commitment from Uchiha Tokumitsu yesterday, so he had no intention of adding to the problem.
Uchiha Tokumitsu did not take the initiative to speak, and the atmosphere in the office suddenly cooled down.
The Daimyo envoy was a little out of breath, feeling that the air was almost frozen.
In the eyes of the daimyo nobles, ninjas were just tools to be driven by them, and they never really regarded them as their own arms. Even in this era when ninjas were the most powerful in the world, there were still many samurai who were eliminated by the times. Priests and monks hold official positions in Daming Prefecture and local areas.
The only official position that a ninja can obtain beside a daimyo is the so-called "guardian nin", and it is also a bodyguard role with rank but no power.
Before leaving the Daiming Mansion, the Daimyo envoy had very little contact with ninjas, the "killing tools" in the eyes of nobles. After arriving in Konoha, he also reprimanded the Hokage for bossing around.
"Ninja Hero" Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't mind putting on a show, and it was just a good opportunity to show his loyalty to the daimyo and the unruly nature of the Uchiha clan.
Now it seems that the reaction of the Uchiha clan did not exceed the third generation's prediction, and it was indeed a big fight that caused instability.
From now on, not to mention anything else, the Uchiha clan has completely lost ground in the eyes of the daimyo. Even if Uchiha is not labeled as an "enemy of the court", even if the daimyo has no power to destroy Uchiha, the Uchiha clan can't even think about it. Obtained the recognition of the Daimyo and won the position of Hokage.
"Tokumitsu-kun, this is the envoy of the daimyo, Doctor Asakura."
The third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen broke the silence with a smile, "Dr. Asakura wants to ask you something on behalf of the daimyo~"
He couldn't wait to see the conflict between Uchiha Tokumitsu and the Daimyo messenger.
Threats are nothing! Preferably a blood splattered office!
"There is a deceitful minister in Daming Mansion!"
Uchiha Deguang shocked everyone, "Someone is trying to shake the ancestral system of one country and one village!"
Even the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had the mentality of watching a movie, was so shocked that he was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.
Did Tokumitsu Uchiha get the wrong script? !
"you you……"
Dr. Asakura ignored his fear and stood up suddenly, pointed at Uchiha Tokimitsu, and was about to scold him. However, after the two of them looked directly at each other, Dr. Asakura could not say a word.
In front of the Sharingan filled with murderous intent, not to mention mortals without chakra, even a slightly weaker Jonin would feel numb.
Dr. Asakura didn't collapse on the spot, so he was determined.
"Knock knock!"
The Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked the table several times with his pipe in dissatisfaction.
Uchiha Tokko then closed his Sharingan.
"Why did Tokuguang-kun say this?"
asked the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"I heard that there are deceitful ministers in the Daming Palace who are trying to seduce the nobles to interfere in the Ninja Village and try to use secular rules to restrain the Ninja clan. Is this true?"
Uchiha Tokko looked around, "The one-village-one-country system established by Hashirama-sama has clarified the distinction between the ninja village and the daimyo nobles. Now that the envoys have arrived in Konoha, they want to break the past system and return the world to the chaos of the Warring States Period." ?"
"If that's the case, the Uchiha clan doesn't mind being the first for the world, and it's hard to stop the chaos in Luoding!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu's words were resounding, and every sentence hit Dr. Asakura's vital points.
Even the most lawless Orochimaru could not help but be stunned.
"cough……"
The Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed and calmed down.
"...Jōnin Tokumitsu, please be patient. Maybe there is something hidden?"
Then he turned to look at the messenger: "Doctor Asakura, could you please tell me something?"
"The Uchiha clan has liaisons with foreign countries, massive smuggling, lawlessness, and tax evasion. Isn't this a fact?"
Dr. Asakura suppressed his blush and roared loudly.
"Do the contacts between the ninja clan need to be submitted to the daimyo for approval?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu also lowered his face and scolded mercilessly: "The ninja clan belongs to the ninja clan, when has it been the turn of the secular world to interfere!"
"Such a large amount of smuggling has even emptied all the cattle and sheep from all the pastures in the Land of Grass. Is this still considered a relationship between the Ninja clan?"
"What does the matter in the Country of Grass have to do with the name of the Country of Fire?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu snorted, "Does His Highness the Daimyo think that he can interfere in foreign affairs? The Red Guards of the Country of Grass will not agree!"
"Aren't those so-called red troops your private army?"
Doctor Asakura was so angry that he gritted his teeth, "Chen Bing Border, are you going to rebel?"
"Although they are members of the Uchiha clan, they are not registered ninjas in Konoha. According to the rules, they just accepted the employment of the Daimyo of Grass Country. This is very reasonable."
Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't care about Dr. Asakura's attitude. In his eyes, this was just the wail of a defeated dog.
"Jōnin Tokumitsu may not be too strong-minded!"
Tsunade said coldly.
"Um?"
Uchiha Tokko looked at Tsunade who was standing aside, "Mito-sama had already reconciled with the Uchiha clan when he was still alive. Does Tsunade-hime plan to overturn the resolution of the ancestors?"
"What does this have to do with Grandma Mito!" When Tsunade heard this, she immediately showed an angry look on her face, "Don't you think your behavior is destroying the trust between the daimyo and the village!"
"The daimyo controls the political power to provide funds for the village, and the village provides ninjas as a standing army for the daimyo. Isn't this a one-village-one-country system?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu sneered twice and said loudly: "Is it because Konoha failed to fulfill its mission of guarding the country or is it that the Uchiha clan is afraid of war and dare not go to the battlefield?"
"Sakumo-kun, what do you think of the performance of the Uchiha clan on the battlefield?"
Uchiha Tokimitsu turned to Hatake Sakumo.
"Uchiha's loyalty and bravery are the highest in the ninja world."
Hatake Sakumo responded in a deep voice.
"So, have the registered Uchiha fulfilled their obligations as ninjas in the village?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu's eyes turned to Tsunade and Dr. Asakura again, "Or does the daimyo think that the Ninja Village is his personal vassal, and can he slaughter and consume it at will?"
As soon as these words came out, the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't sit still.
Another meaning in Uchiha Tokko's words was to accuse him of allowing the daimyo's envoys to visit, destroying the equal status between the country and the ninja village.
"Jōnin Tokumitsu, please be careful what you say!"
The third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen once again knocked his pipe on the office, his tone was very dissatisfied.
"You are so brave!"
In a state of shock and anger, Doctor Asakura could no longer think of words.
The establishment of the Konoha Ninja Village was the result of the reconciliation between the two powerful ninja clans represented by Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, and had nothing to do with the Daimyos of the Land of Fire.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Hokage of Konoha, the former is the lord of the country, and the latter is the military leader. Even the daimyo only has the right to appoint but not decide on the candidate for Hokage.
"Tsunade-hime, the founders of Konoha were not daimyo, but Lord Hashirama and Lord Madara. This is history that cannot be tampered with."
Uchiha Tokumitsu tried his best to calm down his tone, "Konoha ninjas are loyal to the village and not to the daimyo. This is a matter of principle that cannot be changed."
“This is the one-village-one-country system!”
At this time, the Sandaime and the two advisors all reacted.
In terms of the expression of the system, Uchiha Tokumitsu talks about "one village, one country", while Tsunade talks about "one country, one village" officially promoted by Konoha.
Although the word order is only different, it also shows the two people's different views on the relationship between "country" and "ninja village".
"Uchiha Madara is a recognized rebellious ninja! You actually speak for him, Hokage-sama, this boy's heart is to be punished!"
Dr. Asakura, who was so shocked that he doubted his life, immediately seized on Uchiha Tokumitsu's words and immediately jumped up and shouted again.
Although the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen looked gloomy, he did not respond to Dr. Asakura's words.
Doesn't he know that Uchiha Tokumitsu "has a heart that can be killed"?
Isn't it because the power in hand is not enough to suppress the Uchiha clan, which is full of heroes?
Is Sarutobi Hiruzen really a "nin" hero?
Ever since Uchiha Tokumitsu awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, the balance of strength has begun to become unbalanced.
"Even if Madara-sama was labeled as a traitor to the ninja, it was only after the establishment of the ninja village. Can it be said that Madara-sama's contribution to the establishment of the one-village-one-nation system can be erased?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu also sneered at Dr. Asakura's words, "Madara-sama's merits and demerits have their own merits. When has the daimyo been able to talk openly about it?"
"The Tokumitsu Jonin is a little too rampant..."
After turning to bed, Koharu couldn't bear it anymore and said in a sinister tone: "Does the Uchiha clan also want to imitate Uchiha Madara's behavior?"
"The consultant appears to be too fearful of what people say."
Uchiha Tokumitsu chuckled and immediately retorted: "If the Uchiha clan really wants to imitate their ancestors, based on what you just said, do you think the transfer clan can continue to exist?"
When he went to bed, Xiaochun's face became even more angry, but he had stopped talking.
"Tokuguang-kun..."
After listening for a long time, Hatake Sakumo finally couldn't help but exhorted: "With so many people here, you have to be more restrained..."
The Sandaime and the two advisors were speechless when they heard this.
That's it?
I thought you, Hatake Sakumo, were going to say something!
"I will be measured."
Uchiha Deguang follows goodness.
A satisfied smile appeared on Hatake Sakumo's face.
"What we want to review is the smuggling behavior of the Uchiha clan, not the one-country-one-village system!"
Dr. Asakura, who was completely led astray by Uchiha Tokumitsu, finally calmed down. After realizing that the discussion was completely out of control, he quickly changed the topic back.
"Smuggling... is the relationship between ninjas considered smuggling?"
Uchiha Tokko snorted repeatedly, "Why do you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air..."
"What kind of innocence? The guardian nin saw with his own eyes the Uchiha ninjas driving cattle and sheep to the east to be sold to Kirigakure, and they also received a lot of gold coins from Kirigakure. Isn't this smuggling?"
Doctor Asakura opened his eyes wide and his neck turned red from holding back, "Does Uchiha think this is not considered smuggling?"
"Hokage-sama! Is this how you discipline your subordinates?"
Then the finger pointed at the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen twitched his mouth, trying to pull out a fake smile.
"It seems that the deceitful ministers around the daimyo are the so-called guardian nin. It seems that it is time to eliminate those naga nin who do not obey the discipline of the ninja village."
"You say so, Hokage-sama..."
Uchiha Tokko's eyes turned to the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen.
The third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen had a gloomy look on his face.
At this time, you remembered that I turned out to be Hokage-sama?
"His Highness the Daimyo is the co-owner of the Fire Country! Both the Ninja Village and the Ninja Clan are subordinates of His Highness the Daimyo! This is a sacred relationship that cannot be desecrated!"
Dr. Asakura couldn't bear it any longer, stood up and roared angrily.
"All systems and relationships are based on strength, even the relationship between the daimyo and the Ninja Village."
Uchiha Tokumitsu stood up slowly, "How many jounin does His Highness the Daimyo have? Considering his strength and position, why does he have the authority to dictate to the Uchiha clan?"
"The one-country-one-village system cannot be destroyed!"
Tsunade said in a serious tone.
"Yes, the one-village-one-nation system cannot be destroyed."
Uchiha Tokko nodded and acted as a repeater for a while.
"Under the one-village-one-nation rule, only ninja villages are allowed to have standing ninja force. Now I suspect that the guardian ninja of the Daming Prefecture has controlled the government through illusions, trying to subvert the ninja village and alienate the ninja clan."
Uchiha Tokumitsu paused for a moment, then showed a bloody smile, "So, in order to support justice, the Uchiha clan plans to go to Luo to eliminate the traitors and eradicate the guardian nin who controls the government. Is this reasonable?"
"you dare!"
Tsunade couldn't help it anymore, stood up and angrily shouted: "Are you going to provoke the ninja world to siege Konoha!"
"Jōnin Tokumitsu, please take back what you said!"
Under the gaze of Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Katoyan also stood up and shouted.
"Then please first ask the Daimyo to recall the so-called envoy!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu did not give in, and also shouted angrily: "Does the Daimyo think that those incompetent guardian ninjas in his hands and those samurai priests who have been eliminated by the times can make the Uchiha clan surrender!"
"you……"
Dr. Asakura pointed at Uchiha Tokko with trembling fingers and was speechless.
"If the daimyo doesn't give the Uchiha clan an explanation within three days, then I will lead the clan to the daimyo mansion to ask for an explanation!"
Uchiha Tokumitsu said coldly, then slammed the door and left.
Hatake Sakumo was silent for a while, then stood up and bowed to the Hokage, then also stood up and left.
Orochimaru laughed strangely for a while, and seeing the unkind looks from everyone, he immediately nodded to the Hokage and the two advisors, and chose to leave.
It’s the end of the month, please vote please~
