Chapter 118: No Strength! Can Still Chatter Endlessly
"Ahem!"
He deliberately cleared his throat, intentionally reminding Uchiha Fugaku...
That the Hokage was here.
"Lord Hokage!"
Reacting, Uchiha Fugaku held the message and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a slight joy.
"A great victory on the Iwagakure battlefield! That Aoyama Ryūun defeated Iwagakure single-handedly. Lord Hokage, you must be happy too!"
"..."
Happy? Happy my ass!
This old man wishes Aoyama Ryūun would die on the Iwagakure battlefield.
Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen certainly couldn't say such things directly.
And fortunately...
Sarutobi Hiruzen was shrewd enough.
No matter how angry he was inside, on the surface, he knew how to put on a show.
"Ahem! That's right, a great victory on the Iwagakure battlefield. Of course, this old man is happy!"
As if afraid Uchiha Fugaku would say something else...
Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly said:
"Fugaku, go arrange the Uchiha clan personnel first. Pay attention to defense. This old man is worried that Kirigakure people will take this opportunity to attack our Konoha!"
What he said was well-founded and convincing.
Uchiha Fugaku had no good rebuttal, so he could only nod.
"Yes!"
After responding...
Uchiha Fugaku turned and left the conference room.
Originally, in the conference room, Uchiha Fugaku appeared completely guileless.
But as soon as he left, Uchiha Fugaku's face was full of disdain.
The thoughts of those old guys... how could Uchiha Fugaku not guess?
Envying the virtuous and talented!
However, I also need to plan a retreat for the Uchiha clan!
As the future Clan Head of the Uchiha clan...
Uchiha Fugaku had the responsibility to lead the Uchiha clan towards a better future.
Looking at the scroll in his hand recording Aoyama Ryūun...
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes flickered.
He walked silently.
...
"Hmph! In my opinion, this Uchiha Fugaku is not a good thing either!"
As soon as Uchiha Fugaku left, the F4 began discussing in the conference room.
Everyone knew each other inside out.
So when speaking, there was no need for too much disguise.
Mitokado Homura on the side chimed in directly:
"That's right, didn't that Aoyama Ryūun just defeat Iwagakure? What's so amazing about that!"
Such words made the somewhat rational Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzō...
Roll their eyes in unison.
Defeating Iwagakure is nothing? Then you go defeat one for me to see.
Knowing only how to chatter endlessly here.
"Hiruzen!"
Too lazy to pay attention to Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, Danzō...
Spoke directly to Sarutobi Hiruzen:
"I think the mindset of this future Uchiha Clan Head is problematic!"
As for Aoyama Ryūun, Danzō dared not touch him, especially during the Ninja War.
But Uchiha Fugaku was different.
Not to mention, Danzō had long found the Uchiha clan unpleasant to the eye.
Danzō wanted to take this opportunity to strike at the Uchiha clan.
Anyway, Uchiha Fugaku would succeed as the next Clan Head of the Uchiha clan.
This matter, the Konoha F4 had known for a long time.
"That's right!"
At this time, even Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura immediately nodded in agreement.
"That Uchiha Fugaku's mindset is problematic!"
"To actually say Aoyama Ryūun is amazing. Are we not amazing?"
Regarding the remarks Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura sometimes made...
Sarutobi Hiruzen really didn't want to pay attention; too stupid.
But when dealing with Danzō, Aoyama Ryūun would be serious.
"I understand your meaning!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen knew Danzō's petty thoughts.
"But now is not the time!"
They were currently dealing with Kirigakure and needed the Uchiha clan's power.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also disliked the Uchiha clan.
However, unlike Danzō...
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was extremely shrewd, would never reveal his thoughts...
So simply.
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Danzō said no more.
After all, if they wanted to stand a chance against Kirigakure now, they had to rely on the Uchiha clan's power.
Although dissatisfied, it was useless.
"Lord Hokage! Elders!"
At this time, an Anbu figure flickered into the conference room.
"Kirigakure is preparing to start the war again!"
"..."
The Anbu's message instantly silenced the F4 who had been discussing animatedly.
Looking at each other, they were all full of helplessness.
"Can't these Kirigakure people do anything other than start wars?"
So helpless. It had only been a few days since the last war.
Starting again.
"Send a message to Aoyama Ryūun, ask him to defeat Iwagakure quickly!"
What could Sarutobi Hiruzen do?
He only hoped Aoyama Ryūun could finish Iwagakure quickly and then provide support.
Although he knew this situation was a bit unrealistic.
But it was better than doing nothing, right?
...
"Heh! Old man, it looks like you can't hold on much longer!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's message requesting support quickly reached Aoyama Ryūun's hands.
Looking at this message, Aoyama Ryūun first smiled casually.
Then he threw the scroll aside.
Let's see if I care.
Also in the conference room, only the two brothers Hiashi and Hizashi remained.
Regarding Aoyama Ryūun's disdain for the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen...
Both brothers pretended not to see, looking at their noses and hearts.
"Lord Ryūun, that... is also a message from the Hokage!"
Although the two brothers had decided on their stance...
But Sarutobi Hiruzen hadn't formally stepped down yet, so Hiashi and Hizashi were a little timid.
However, facing such words...
Aoyama Ryūun said nonchalantly:
"When have you ever seen me care about the Hokage's orders?"
"..."
Instantly speechless.
Indeed, Aoyama Ryūun had never cared whether Sarutobi Hiruzen would be unhappy.
Anyway, the most important thing is whether this old master is happy.
"However!"
Resting his chin on one hand, Aoyama Ryūun pondered.
Although he was afraid of trouble and wouldn't be Hokage...
But giving this Hokage position to someone else like this, Aoyama Ryūun was also uncomfortable.
