Chapter 680 News of defeat exposed(1/2)

Because Kakashi had breakfast while reading the newspaper, he came a little later than usual.

When he arrived at the Southern Forest, Nohara Lin and Obito had already started practicing under Mu Yue's guidance.

Obito usually eats at home or at a breakfast shop in the Uchiha clan area. He may not necessarily pass by the commercial street on the way here. Kakashi guessed that Obito didn't know about the new content reported in Konoha today.

Otherwise, with Obito's character, he wouldn't be able to yell and scream here.

Then Kakashi walked towards Mu Yue who was teaching Obito to fly the Thunder God, and said:

"Teacher Muyue, I just heard a bad rumor on the commercial street."

Kakashi quickly told Muyue the news he heard on the street.

When Muyue is teaching, Kakashi usually won't disturb him.

However, Kakashi felt that this news was quite involved and Mu Yue must know it as soon as possible so that Konoha would not be so passive.

If the news is false, clarify it as soon as possible, hold those who spread the rumor accountable, and trace the source of the rumor.

If the news is true, then we can find ways to reduce the impact more quickly.

Although this rumor sounds outrageous, Kakashi thinks it must be true.

Because this can explain something that Kakashi is very puzzled about - why he suddenly chose the fourth generation Hokage.

The reason Sarutobi Hiruzen gave at the meeting was that he wanted young people to come up because he was old.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not too old, and this was not a good time to abdicate. How could a leader who had won a great victory suddenly abdicate.

If there was such a thing as losing to Sosuke, then everything would be reasonable.

"Uncle Hokage lost to Soyousuke? Really or not, how did the two of them fight?" Obito scratched his head and showed a confused expression.

He knew that there was a conflict between Konoha and the Ninja Sect, but Obito only knew that Konoha wanted to force Soyousuke to commit suicide, and then the negotiations broke down.

Unexpectedly, we have fast forwarded to the fight between Naruto and the ninja master.

"It's true." Mu Yue told the truth directly. Since it has spread to Konoha and Kakashi's ears, there is no need to conceal it deliberately.

"But don't discuss this matter too much, just keep it as usual."

This matter has actually been discussed in a high-level meeting. After all, they can do a good job of keeping Konoha's secrets secret, but they can't get the Ninja Sect to keep it secret for them. It will be exposed sooner or later.

Kakashi showed an expression that confirmed this, and said that it was not that simple for Sarutobi Hiruzen to suddenly pass the position this time.

"Looking at it this way, Soyousuke's strength is quite extraordinary." Kakashi couldn't help but fall into thinking.

Previously, Konoha was very tough on the Ninja Sect and wanted to force Soyousuke to commit suicide, but inexplicably, there was no follow-up.

Connecting everything, the answer is readily apparent. Soyousuke's strength exceeds Konoha's imagination, causing Konoha to have to change its attitude.

Kakashi glanced at Muyue subconsciously.

Speaking of being powerful enough to change the attitudes of the five great ninja villages, the first thing that came to his mind was Mu Yue.

Mu Yue has not yet reached the level of Senju Hashirama, but in the current ninja world, except for Soyousuke, who is temporarily unknown, Mu Yue is the number one in the ninja world, and has the strength to destroy ninja troops by himself.

"Perceiving space is the first step to Flying Thunder God, and it is also an important step to successfully activate it..." After reminding, Mu Yue continued to teach Obito the art of Flying Thunder God.

Kakashi also quickly put his thoughts aside and began to hone his sword skills and the changes in the properties of thunder attribute chakra.

At this time, on the other side, the clone of Mu Yueying in the Hokage Building was also found by the Anbu.

"Please go to the high-level conference room immediately." The ANBU quickly explained the purpose of their visit.

Mu Yueying's clone nodded and hurried to the high-level conference room with the ANBU.

"As we expected, the Ninja Sect did not keep the news secret. Various news about my defeat to Soyousuke has spread to the Land of Fire and even Konoha."

After everyone arrived, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't waste time and immediately explained the problem.

"It's faster than expected. Did the Ninja sect take the initiative to promote it?" Mito Kadenyan said in a deep voice.

It takes time for news to spread. In the ninja world where communications are underdeveloped, it is not easy for a piece of information to spread quickly in a short period of time.

However, compared to the news itself, Mito Monobu still pays more attention to the attitude of Soyousuke.

Even if the news is exposed, Sarutobi Hiruzen will lose a little face, but Konoha will have no actual loss.

"It may also be that other great ninja villages that are unwilling to be left behind are adding fuel to the flames." Mu Yue shook her head.

Didn't he know whether he did it or not? Mu Yue did not specifically ask the Ninja Ninjas to conceal the results of the battle, but she also did not ask the Ninja Sect Ninjas to publicize it.

"Mu Yue is right. Compared to the Ninja Sect, other great Ninja villages are more suspicious." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

Due to Soyousuke's refusal to fight, Sarutobi Hiruzen still cannot tell whether Soyousuke is hostile to Konoha or not.

The other ninja villages are very simple. They have just been defeated. When they hear this kind of thing, they must be very happy to see Konoha make a fool of themselves.

"Then what should we do? Use the method discussed before?" Xiaochun asked when he went to bed.

"Yes, cold treatment." Sarutobi Hiruzen confirmed.

You can't quibble, otherwise if the news reaches the Ninja sect and Sosuke demands to fight in public again, then he will have to lose face, and he will not be able to gain favor no matter whether he goes or not.

But it's not good to admit it directly. It will only cause a small blow to his personal reputation. If it affects Konoha's development momentum, it will be a big sin.

So the result of their discussion was to pretend to be dead and pretend they didn't see it.

In this way, Sarutobi Hiruzen's supporters can also tell themselves that Sarutobi Hiruzen disdains to respond to such rumors, or that the hard-working Sarutobi Hiruzen has never heard of this trivial matter, so as to refute and confront them.

"Speed ​​up the election, compress the process, and get the results of the fourth generation election as soon as possible." Sarutobi Hiruzen said seriously.

This was the reason why he summoned the senior officials. Pretending to be dead was only a temporary measure, not a good strategy.

Only by selecting a new fourth-generation Hokage and letting Muyue, the second Wooden ninja who is expected by everyone, come to power can the problem be better solved.

After confirming the specific decision, no matter how hotly discussed the news of "Soyousuke defeated Sarutobi Hiruzen" was in Konoha Village, Konoha did not take any action, neither explaining nor suppressing the discussion environment, just trying hard

Promoting the electoral process.

Under this circumstance, the voting results of the genin came out soon.

The gap in the number of votes can be described as a huge disparity. The ninja who counted the votes confirmed again and again to be sure that he had counted correctly.

The votes Muyue received accounted for 90% of the total votes of middle genin!

In other words, for every ten Konoha ninjas, nine Konoha ninjas support Mu Yue to become the fourth generation Hokage.

When the voting results were announced, Mu Yue's astonishing number of votes shocked Konoha.

People stopped discussing the various secrets between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Soyousuke for the time being, and the discussion about the Hokage election once again started in Konoha.

"That's not right. According to the voting rules, Assistant Mu Yue has already won."

Someone combined the two voting results and discovered something outrageous. Even if Orochimaru won 100% of the popular votes in the popular vote, he would still lose to Mu Yue.

The weights of the three types of votes between jounin, middle genin and the public are different.

There were only more than a hundred Jonin voting, but they accounted for 40% of the total voting weight.

Although there were many middle genin and civilians, they only accounted for 30% each.

Mu Yue's jounin votes and middle genin votes are added together, and the total weight is infinitely close to 60%.

Even if Orochimaru gets all the weights next, the total weight in the end will be forty at most.

Obviously, this election has ended early, and Mu Yue will become the fourth generation Hokage no matter what.

Therefore, after consulting Orochimaru himself, the high-level meeting changed the election steps.

The popular vote continued, but it was only used to calculate the final number of votes. The election results were settled immediately, and the daimyo and senior officials of the Fire Nation were invited to determine the final candidate for Hokage.

Uchiha Fugaku and Shisui did not waste such an excellent opportunity. Seeing that everyone in the village believed that Mu Yue would be the next Hokage, they summoned the elders of the clan to discuss the matter.

Since there were not many people attending the meeting, they did not go to Nanga Shrine for the meeting, but chose the venue in Uchiha Fugaku's study.

"Due to the victory in the war, Konoha has received a large number of high-quality commissions..." Uchiha Fugaku did not hesitate, and told them all what they were going to do next as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Temporarily leaving the police department to do high-level entrusted tasks?"

Uchiha Mingqing habitually wanted to refuse, but when he thought of the rewards he could get from high-level tasks, he did not speak immediately.

"There is something wrong. We Uchiha elites have left the police department. What will happen to the security of Konoha? What if we cannot return to the police department?" Uchiha Katsuhisa asked a question.

"There is no need to worry about public security. Under normal circumstances, the police department does not need to be too strong. Some genin can be temporarily hired to take on the responsibility." Uchiha Fugaku replied.

"What about the positions in the police department? If it is not suspended, but business as usual, but the patrol tasks are replaced by high-level commissions, I think it will be good," Uchiha Katsuhisa expressed his thoughts.

Shisui finally understood. They wanted to earn commission money, but they didn't want to give up their position in the police department.

"Let me make it clear first that this is not the idea of ​​Uncle Fugaku and I, but Teacher Muyue's suggestion about the police department." Zhisui said.

"Teacher Mu Yue believes that the current power of the Police Department is over-qualified for maintaining public order, so she came up with the idea of ​​liberating the powerful power of the Police Department."

As soon as Zhisui said these words, the study instantly became quiet.

Uchiha Katsuhisa smiled, "Assistant Mu Yue is right. We Uchiha Jonin are powerful, but patrolling the village is really a waste."

"I support Mu Yue's idea of ​​assisting."

If I had told him earlier, he would definitely be the first to support Mu Yue's will.

Who in Konoha doesn't know that Mu Yue's appointment as the Fourth Hokage is already a certainty.
To be continued...
