Chapter 157: Sifang Yundong and the discovery of Orochimaru (10,000 characters~)(1/4)
The light of the morning sun shines above the wooden leaves, and a new day arrives as usual.
But Konoha Village did not usher in the morning of laughter as usual.
Today, there is a strange sense of suffocation in this village.
The originally bustling streets have long since lost the hustle and bustle of the past, with only closed areas and ninja troops manning the streets.
Everything that happened last night left an indelible impression on the residents of Konoha.
First, Kakashi unexpectedly attacked the Konoha Building, and then the seven major Konoha families collectively impeached their third generation Hokage.
Then something incredible happened, their Sandaime Hokage actually admitted all his actions.
However, his recognition did not win the recognition of others. The former Mito Gate elder was the first opponent.
And he also led their clansmen and Anbu to launch an attack, which caused the Hokage Building, which was originally a solemn place that symbolized the core of Konoha's highest power, to become a battlefield.
But it was such a battle that made everyone in Konoha realize the power of the head of the security department!
Even those who did not have the courage to come to the scene, or those who could not see clearly because they were too far back after being driven away, they all knew what exactly happened.
Not only did Hahara survive the siege of hundreds of ninjas by himself, he even defeated them all.
He also faced the Third Hokage and others alone, killing and defeating them one by one!
Such a record is unimaginable, and such strength is impressive, but the impact of this battle is also extremely terrifying.
The impeachment of the Hokage set a precedent for Konoha and even the entire ninja world, and now Konoha has completely fallen into the shadowless era of disorder!
The members of the Elder Council were almost killed, and the once-all-powerful Sarutobi, Mitomon, and Mikado families were now closed.
And on their periphery are the Konoha defense forces that have been taken over. The people of these forces are closely watching every move of these three families.
Not only their homes, but even their properties in Konoha were also under surveillance, and this approach naturally made Konoha become uneasy.
But this is inevitable. Konoha is already in chaos at this time, and we can't continue to cause more trouble!
"How is the situation now?"
In an office in the Hokage Building, Hahara stood by the window and looked at the ninjas who were busy completing renovations outside. He couldn't help but ask.
There were seven people in the entire conference room, and these seven were the heads of the seven major families involved in last night's operation. Strictly speaking, based on his age, Hahara could not speak.
But he made the greatest contribution in last night's battle, and as the Minister of Security, he also has one of the greatest powers.
Therefore, no one would object to what he said. Even Nara Shikaku immediately turned around and took a fancy to him, and then spoke slowly at the end.
"The situation is quite optimistic. My former Hokage helped me complete the biggest evidence. He himself admitted everything. Our impeachment was successful.
Moreover, we have received the greatest legal support, and Lucheng has already passed the daimyo’s manuscript back, so the troops from all walks of life have taken over very smoothly.”
When Ha Yuan heard the news, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. They hadn't slept since last night.
Because they all know that the successful impeachment is only the beginning, and many subsequent things will be extremely troublesome.
Fortunately, for now, the news they have received is good. Successfully taking over various troops in Konoha means that they have officially taken control of Konoha.
The next thing is to elect a new Hokage and at the same time resolve some possible troubles as low-key as possible.
Their performance last night was already high-profile enough. If they continue to be high-profile, things may be counterproductive.
Moreover, these three families do not necessarily have to be wiped out in one fell swoop. Whether Konoha's strength is a little bit stronger or they have to fight for it.
Even if it was just a show, Hahara and the others had to do this, otherwise it would be terrible if it caused panic.
But all this depends on the attitudes of the three families. If they really don't cooperate, then don't blame others for being cruel.
"That's good. The security department will cooperate with everyone as much as possible."
Ha Yuan laughed softly, and then he continued to speak.
"Thank you for your hard work, so far we have achieved the first stage of victory."
Indeed, it was a huge victory for Konoha to be controlled, but it was also the first stage of victory after losing Hokage.
The most important thing for them now is to quickly find Jiraiya, that bastard.
Then regardless of all his nonsense and reasons, he directly pressed him into the Hokage's seat.
Only in this way can they completely stabilize Konoha, and only in this way can they completely complete this impeachment operation.
"Actually, the hardest thing is you, Chief Hahara."
Aburame Zhiwei, who had always been the most silent, raised her head and looked at Habara, and then he spoke softly.
"You killed Danzo, you came up with the plan, and you defeated the Third Hokage.
If the security department needs it, please let us know.
And I believe that Chief Hahara will definitely get everything you want this time."
"This is a joint effort by everyone. Without you, even if I want to bring down the Hokage, it is something I can't do."
Ha Yuan smiled and shook his head. Of course he understood what the silent clan leader meant.
A very simple and obvious question, this is the promise to share the cake afterwards!
Hahara's performance this time was impeccable, and his contribution this time was also the greatest.
To put it bluntly, even though it was Nara Shikaku who contacted them, without Hahara, all of this would not have been possible, and it would not have been possible to achieve this point.
Moreover, everything Hahara led them to do has avenged them to a large extent. Giving Hahara the greatest support at this moment is also the best way to handle this matter.
However, Hahara is still very low-key. Even if it is a low-key superficial job, he must make it clear.
What's more, dividing the cake must be handled properly. Many times a team collapses because the cake is not distributed properly.
In fact, Hahara doesn't necessarily have to eat a lot. After all, the security department alone is enough to keep him full. At most, he just wants to think of ways to see if he can get legislative power.
Of course, if given the opportunity, Hahara will also try to involve finances, but these are things for later.
Their top priority now is to focus on maintaining the stability of Konoha and finding Jiraiya who is wandering in the ninja world.
Of course, if necessary, there needs to be a funeral for Konoha's Shinobu...
........
At noon, Habara finally walked out of the Hokage Building.
Konoha was still quiet at this time, and the sun towering high in the sky did not change the depressing environment.
However, Hahara didn't care too much about being together. Such martial law is very necessary now.
After all, this is not only to guard against people from those three families causing trouble, but also to guard against spies from other countries' ninja villages!
There must be spies from other countries in every village. This is almost a tacit secret.
And it is extremely difficult to catch these guys out, because they may have integrated into Konoha long ago, or they may just be passers-by who came to Konoha in a hurry.
Therefore, when there is trouble in the village, the best way is not to arrest people, but to directly implement martial law.
"Um?"
As they were walking, Ha Yuan suddenly stopped and looked to the side.
Because not far away, a person has been waiting there silently, and this person is Kakashi.
At this time, Kakashi looked at Habara with a slightly complicated look. In fact, he was very grateful to Hahara from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for Habara, he probably wouldn't have been able to dig out so many things and get Hiruzen Sarutobi to admit so many things himself.
Then it would be really difficult to wash away his father's grievances, and his father would have to bear all kinds of stigmas throughout his life until he is forgotten by everyone.
But on the other hand, Kakashi is also very helpless and disappointed, that is, he has no way to personally avenge his father.
Although last night's battle was blocked by flames and magma in the final stages, ordinary people could not enter or see everything that happened inside.
But through the firelight and the terrifying and suffocating torrent of chakra, people knew that this battle was also a battle far beyond imagination.
Kakashi knew that he really had no way to participate in this battle, which really made him extremely regretful and lonely.
However, Hahara won the battle in the end, but Hahara did not kill the Sandaime Hokage with his own hands, but ensured his final dignity in the thunderstorm.
He committed suicide. He lost his life in the rainy night, and also let the thunderstorm wash away his sins.
Kakashi didn't know whether this result was good or bad. He knew who his enemies were, and he personally participated in the action of exposing these people's evil deeds.
But none of his enemies died in his hands, whether it was Danzo or Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Habara-sama."
Seeing that Habara had noticed him, Kakashi took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and then he spoke seriously.
"Just call me Hahara. Forget it, sir. After all, I grew up listening to your legends in school."
Before Kakashi could finish what he said, Hahara interrupted him and said with a smile.
"You worked hard last night. If you hadn't forced that ANBU to use Wood Release, if you hadn't gotten the decisive evidence.
I'm afraid our former Hokage-sama won't give up so easily, nor will he admit defeat so easily."
Habara could probably guess what Kakashi was thinking. After all, who could see all his enemies dead, but none of them took revenge personally.
I'm afraid I still feel a little helpless and regretful, but life is always perfect.
To be continued...
