(I will post a picture of my updated word count today in Zongheng Chat later)
Two days later, Ohnoki reluctantly picked up the package and walked out of the office building with his granddaughter Kurotsuchi and his disciple Akatsuki.
In peacetime, a village leader rarely leaves the village, and the Five Kage Conference may not have been held for many years, so this time Iwagakure Village prepared a rather grand farewell ceremony for Onoki.
Ohnoki, who walked out of the office building, ostensibly reprimanded his leader's son, Huang Tu, but it was actually quite useful in his heart. After pretending to teach Huang Tu a lesson, he returned to his serious look and warned: "After I leave, everything in the village will be ruined."
It’s up to you to take charge, don’t take it lightly!”
"I understand, father." Loess stood upright and spoke seriously. Most of the ninjas in the village understood that unless there was a major accident, he must be the next Tsuchikage. Someone is observing every move, which may be a good thing.
, but on the other hand, it also added a lot of pressure to him.
"As long as you understand." Onoki muttered in his mouth. He looked at Huang Tu's resolute face and suddenly thought about whether he should pass on the Tsuchikage's position to Huang Tu after returning to the village after participating in the meeting.
He has held this position for many years, and Loess is not too young. In the Fire Country, which is far away from the Earth Country across the Grass Country, the newly appointed Sixth Hokage is only sixteen years old, and their allies
Feng Ying was even younger when he took office.
Really surprisingly young.
For two days, Onoki was thinking sadly, feeling quite a bit like a hero in his twilight years. While he was secretly sad for his age, he absent-mindedly lifted the package that was missing, but he might as well not move too much. With a little force, it would be gone.
He heard a crisp sound that made his skin stand on end.
"Eh!" For two days, Onoki's expression kept changing. He tried not to cry out in pain, and let out a low groan of unknown meaning as if someone had pinched his throat. He staggered to half-kneeling on the ground, holding his waist with one hand.
"I told you not to be brave and give the package to Kurotsuchi." Although Ohnoki gritted his teeth and refused to speak, Kurotsuchi did not give his grandfather the face at all.
Leave the parcel to Akatsuki!"
"Don't underestimate me, I can handle it on my own." He put his hands on his knees, trying to stand up, and said harshly: "I am Iwagakure's Sodokage Ohnoki, the terrible Tsuchikage-sama..."
.”
"The terrible Tsuchikage-sama" hadn't finished speaking before the tall Akatsuki behind him picked up the package behind his back with one hand and carried it on Akatsuki's body.
"How long are you going to wait like this? I want to quickly see what kind of people the new Sixth Hokage and Fifth Kazekage are!" Kurotsuchi complained endlessly to the two-day Haku Onoki.
"Both of them are not easy people to mess with, you'd better be calm." Even though Onoki, the two-day-old man, liked to rely on his elders to criticize the other leaders of the Ninja Village, including Shikamaru and Gaara, he had belittled him.
But he didn't want his granddaughter to suffer because of her carefree personality. Gaara was the former Shukaku's jinchuriki. It was said that his personality was very unstable in the past. He knew the terrifying and dangerous character of jinchuriki.
Not to mention Shikamaru, who had become famous in the ninja world before becoming Hokage.
There are so many ninjas in the world who want to kill Orochimaru, but so far only Shikamaru has succeeded, and he has also managed to escape unscathed by causing havoc in the Land of Water and the Land of Thunder.
And that he can now return to Konoha Village and become Hokage obviously means that the killings in the Kingdom of Water were deliberate. In this regard, to be fair, Onoki thinks that when he is the same age as Shikamaru, in terms of ability,
Not as good as Shikamaru.
"Don't provoke them casually without my order." After thinking of this for two days, Onoki warned uneasily.
…………
Similar dramas to those in Iwagakure Village were played out in the other four great ninja villages.
The Raikage, who seemed very anxious, led his men to set off even earlier than the Tsuchikage. He still had a debt to settle with Shikamaru and didn't want to delay at all.
Following Raikage is the sentient ninja, Kirabi's former playmate, "Gee".
The other one is Dodai, a ninja who possesses the blood inheritance limit "melting escape".
In Kirigakure Village, the bodyguards that Terumi Mei should follow were also replaced by ninjas because of Shikamaru's massacre. Sensing ninjas are almost standard equipment, and the other one is also an experienced jounin.
Gaara of Hidden Sand Village brought Temari and Maki, and Kankuro was killed by the Red Sand Scorpion. It was a pity for Gaara, which left him without a right-hand man who he could fully trust.
In Konoha Village, Shikamaru has not finished working yet. He is still assigning some tasks. He and Mito Kadoyan said in a deep voice.
"Why?" Mito Kaden asked with a frown. He thought that Shikamaru wanted to transfer the two of them away from Konoha Village because he was worried that while he was attending the meeting, the two of them would seize power and cause harm.
"Strictly speaking, Taki Ninja Village is also a victim of the Akatsuki organization's actions. Their tailed beasts have also been taken away. However, they are not qualified to participate in this Five Kage Conference." Shikamaru said.
Tan said: "I can't completely predict the outcome of this meeting, whether it will harm the interests of Taki Ninja Village, but I hope you can temporarily stabilize Taki Ninja Village. After all, they are also the oldest brand after the five major Ninja Villages.
The strength of the Ninja Village cannot be underestimated. Arranging for two elders to go together can also show our sincerity in Konoha, right?"
Shikamaru did not lie. Taki Ninja Village borders the Land of Fire. It is a veteran ninja village. It is also the only village with jinchūriki besides the five major ninja villages. It is not small in terms of strength and ambition. If it is in Shikamaru
During the Five Shadows meeting, it was not a trivial matter to have any thoughts about Konoha. The two of them looked at each other and saw that Shikamaru was Hokage after all, and the tasks he arranged were not too difficult for others, and neither of them could refuse.
, so he could only nod his head in agreement.
Seeing that the two of them had agreed, Shikamaru said nothing more. He had some malicious speculation in his heart about whether the two of them would be able to come back alive after leaving Konoha Village this time, so he said goodbye to the two elders slightly coldly.
Neither Mito Kabuto nor Mito Kabuto took it seriously. If Shikamaru suddenly became enthusiastic, the two of them would have to deal with the two elders of Mito Kabuto.
Supervise some work.
After arranging these, Shikamaru led Neji and Akimichi Choji to set off for the Kingdom of Iron.
(Damn it, I finally completed today’s task, and finished it before twelve o’clock. My back hurts from typing, and looking at the rising red tickets, it’s really painful and happy...)
