Chapter 341 Confrontation and blame-shifting!
Hokage's office!
There weren't many people here at this time, but they were all big shots whose words had influence.
Of course all F4 are there, and the Anbu leader Sarutobi Shinnosuke is also there.
In addition to them, there are also Hyuga Hiashi, Uchiha Fugaku, Nara Shikaku, Yamanaka Inoichi, Akimichi Choza... and others.
There may be only a dozen of them, but they can decide everything in Konoha.
Except for Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was the Hokage, everyone else was standing.
It’s not that it’s impossible to set this place up like a conference room. Usually, a small table is placed here for the two consultants.
But it’s not easy to do that this time.
We can't let the consultant sit while the others stand, right?
So only the Hokage stands, and everyone else just stands.
Ninja itself is a combat profession, and it is not that particular.
"What's going on today that brings so many people here?"
As soon as I entered the office, Tang Ping asked a question even though he knew the answer.
Well, today's event is completely prepared for myself.
The castle tower developed too fast, which naturally made Konoha unable to sit still, so they wanted to suppress themselves.
And the evidence obtained by the roots is the best excuse for suppression.
The purpose of calling on these big ninja clans was naturally to let them follow suit and exert pressure.
The current castle tower is no longer the same as it was at the beginning. The village can do whatever they want with it.
"Of course it's because your castle tower betrayed Konoha, colluded with foreign enemies, and acted recklessly!"
Danzo accused coldly.
As the bad guy among Konoha's F4, it is natural that he is the only one who can do the trouble.
All I can say is that Konoha F4 has a clear division of labor, one black face, one white face, and two neutrals, and all aspects have been taken into consideration.
In one word, absolutely!
"Oh, Elder Danzo, do you have any evidence? If not, then you have to pay the price for accusing a commander without reason, even if you are an elder, right?"
Tang Ping confronted him directly.
That's the taste.
Fighting against Danzo, the King of Blames and Evil in the Ninja World, is simply the best way to relax.
Before the time travel, anyone who had watched Naruto would hate it.
Now that you have the chance to confront him face to face, why not seize the opportunity?
It's just that Dohei is not the Hokage, otherwise there would be a re-enactment of the classic scene of "You regret being my Hokage".
"Well, of course I have evidence!"
Danzo proudly took out a scroll.
The above is the evidence that Genbu has spent a lot of time and energy to slowly collect.
For example, transactions with the Sand Village, the Mist Village, etc., may be fine on a small scale, but if it is a large-scale transaction, some things are naturally unavoidable.
The purchased supplies, materials, etc. are all evidence.
Although these ninja villages have signed peace agreements with Konoha, they are still enemies. If you trade with them, you will be suspected of treason.
But Tang Ping didn't even look at the evidence and directly said:
"I'm sorry, our castle tower only trades with our own Chamber of Commerce and the United Fruit Chamber of Commerce. We have never traded with other villages, so this is all 'fake news'!"
Yes, you heard it right, he said it directly.
And he wasn't lying.
The castle tower really doesn't do business with other villages.
At most, they sold the goods they produced directly to Honda Chamber of Commerce and United Fruit Products. As for who the two chambers of commerce sold them to, they had no control over it.
Yes, the two chambers of commerce are the white gloves, specifically used to take the blame.
The castle tower does belong to Konoha, but the Chamber of Commerce does not. At the same time, it is not Konoha's turn to control who they trade with.
"you…"
Danzo felt a tightness in his chest, but he couldn't blame anyone.
Because the flags those caravans were flying belonged to the two guilds of commerce.
Even if there are people from the castle tower to escort them, it is just a "commissioned mission".
It's impossible that they are not allowed to take any missions, right?
Konoha is not so overbearing.
If they really are not allowed to take on such missions, then they must be allocated funds to support them, which is something Konoha absolutely does not want to do.
"Are you feeling unwell, Elder Danzo? Do you need to go home and rest? Although I'm also very busy, I'm still happy to help you manage the Root!" Dohei stabbed him directly.
His words made the clan leaders who served as background figures, such as Hyuga Hiashi, Uchiha Fugaku, etc., laugh secretly in their hearts.
Fortunately, they have good expression management skills, otherwise they would have laughed out loud.
Because everyone knows that the Root is completely Danzo's personal force, and they don't even listen to the orders of the Hokage.
If he loses it, it will definitely be more painful for him than killing Danzo.
Therefore, there is only one possibility if the roots are willing to hand them over.
Danzo is dead!
Knowing how important the Root is to Danzo, Douping still said this, which is simply a slap in the face.
Anyway, it's just face-to-face output.
It doesn't make sense that you, Danzo, are the only one who can cause trouble to me and not allow me to fight back, right?
It would be fine if it was just an ordinary ninja, but Dou Ping himself is a big boss after all, so he is qualified to fight back.
"Okay, there's no need to say more about this!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen saw the state of his old friend and was afraid that he would get angry and something bad would happen, so he stopped Dohei from continuing and ended the topic.
As the Hokage and referee, Dohei at least gave him some face and did not continue to pursue Danzo.
"How do you explain the Tea Kingdom incident?"
Utane Koharu suddenly asked.
During this period, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has been sending inquiries about what the castle tower is doing in the Land of Tea, and stated that if he does not see a "satisfactory" result, then next year's funding may be cut.
The two main sources of funding for the village are grants and tasks.
If the daimyo does not allocate funds, then we can only rely on mission commissions to make money, and this way the funds will definitely not be enough.
It is through this means that the five major nations are able to have a huge influence on the ninja villages.
If you dare to disobey the orders of the Ninja Village, we will beat you to the point where you can’t take care of yourself in a matter of minutes.
Ninjas are indeed powerful, but they also cost a lot!
If there is no big country to support it, it will go bankrupt without any explanation.
Therefore, Konoha must give an explanation to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire no matter what.
This is also the reason why Utane Koharu jumped out, even if she was unwilling.
"Oh, as for the Tea Kingdom, the other party just hired us to protect him. I guess it's not a big deal, right?"
Tang Ping was a little nonchalant, as if it was no big deal at all.
This is indeed the case. Now no one knows that the castle tower has begun to develop the Tea Kingdom on a large scale. In the eyes of everyone, more attention is paid to not allowing ninjas to cross the bottom line and threaten the nobles, rather than this small country.
How could such a poor and backward place be worth their time and energy?
"How dare you! You have taken control of the Daimyo of the Tea Country and have been assassinating those nobles and ministers who reject you. Do you really think we don't know?"
Danzo felt that the sky was clearing, the rain had stopped, and he was able to jump out again.
Anyone with eyes open can see that the Tea Kingdom has indeed fallen into the hands of the castle tower.
Although the area is poor and backward, those ports are still very valuable.
No one could have imagined that what Tang Ping wanted was not the port, but a vast area of land and population.
If they knew that the castle tower could be transformed into a place with a suitable environment by pushing mountains and filling the sea, they would definitely be shocked.
Konoha has never taken it seriously because it feels that the place is of little value. If the daimyo had not forced it, it wouldn't even have brought it up.
"Really? Then I wonder if the elder has any evidence?"
Tang Ping asked again.
This time, he was not worried that the other party would be able to produce evidence.
The Daimyo of the Tea Country is a real person, he is just "entertained" by illusions every day, and their castle tower is also hired by the other party, so everything is reasonable.
As for things like the eye killing, those were all done by thieves and had nothing to do with their castle tower.
They are a pure and innocent force, how could they do such a thing?
As they were fighting, suddenly, an Anbu appeared in the office out of nowhere.
problem occurs!
Everybody knows this.
Because the meeting was extremely important, if it wasn't something serious, the other party would never come in and interrupt at this time.
Only Dou Ping and Hinata Cangyue looked at each other faintly, with a hint of expectation in their eyes.
It's time to eat melons and have fun.
