Chapter 65: Sarutobi Hiruzen’s reputation has spread all over the place (Ch 838727428)

Everyone turned their eyes to Tsunade, their fiery eyes full of expectation. Tsunade felt everyone’s earnest expectations and said solemnly: “Don’t worry, I will do my best.”
In a room of the inn, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kado En, Utane Koharu, Tsunade, Orochimaru, Nara Shikaku and other people who have a say in Konoha Village are sitting around a table.
Mitomon En was the first to break the silence, looked at Tsunade and said, “Tsunade, if you were to become the fifth Hokage, what do you think about the economic planning of Konoha Village? Otherwise, we can follow the previous model, and I will allocate the relevant proportions for you.”
Utane Koharu was just about to say something in agreement when Tsunade suddenly slammed her hand heavily on the table with a “bang”. The powerful momentum instantly shocked the two elders.
Tsunade shouted angrily, “Konoha? Where is Konoha now? Is this the time to talk about this now?”
Following Tsunade’s angry shout, Mizuto Kado En and Utane Koharu suddenly realized that it was indeed inappropriate to discuss this matter at this moment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself that these two old companions were really confused as to bring up such an inappropriate matter at this critical juncture.
Has the temptation of power really made them so stupid?
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his two old companions, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, and felt very disappointed with them.
However, when he looked up, he was surprised to find that Tsunade and Orochimaru looked at him with similar emotions in their eyes.
Sarutobi Hiruzen’s heart suddenly jumped, as if he was hit by something. He sighed helplessly and said slowly: “I was indeed wrong about the Uchiha clan.”
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, stuck out his tongue like a snake, and said coldly: “Is this the only thing you did wrong?”
When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, he fell silent, not knowing how to respond.
At this time, Tsunade looked serious and asked, “What exactly is the so-called Uchiha disaster? Can anyone explain it to me?”
As far as Tsunade knows now, the Uchiha clan was brutally wiped out and the man known as Uchiha Disaster also died.
Then, he used the power of his Mangekyō Sharingan to make everyone in the ninja world be buried with him.
Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into silence, his lips opening and closing slightly, as if he wanted to say something but was holding it back.
Orochimaru keenly noticed something strange in Sarutobi Hiruzen’s expression and couldn’t help but sneered: “Foolish teacher, you seem to know something.”
In an instant, Nara Shikaku and others also turned their gazes to Sarutobi Hiruzen, their eyes full of inquiry.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen still looked conflicted and didn’t know how to start.
Tsunade’s eyes widened in anger, staring at Sarutobi Hiruzen, and she loudly rebuked him, “It has come to this point, what else can’t you say? You have already become a sinner in the ninja world, and whether you say it or not, you can’t change this fact. Don’t you understand?”
The word “sinner” was like two heavy rocks, hitting Sarutobi Hiruzen’s heart hard, making his head dizzy.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had always thought that he had made great achievements as Hokage, could never have imagined that he would end up in such a situation where he was criticized by everyone.
At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally sighed deeply, his expression extremely complicated, and slowly said: “Orochimaru, your guess is correct. In fact, I am not completely unfamiliar with Uchiha Disaster.”
As soon as these words were spoken, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of Mitomonen, Utane Koharu and others.
They couldn’t help but wonder: Is Sarutobi Hiruzen very familiar with Uchiha Disaster?
After all, in everyone’s impression, Uchiha Kaiju was just an outstanding performer in the ninja school of the ninja world, when he and Uchiha Itachi were praised as the “twin stars”.
However, since leaving the Ninja School, his reputation has gradually faded and he has been slowly forgotten by everyone.
When Tsunade heard this, her eyes became more serious and she stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen, as if waiting for him to give a more detailed account.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and slowly closed his eyes, his expression full of sadness and regret, as if he was suddenly immersed in memories of many years ago.
The room was very quiet. Everyone was waiting quietly, and no one spoke to break the silence.
After a long while, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly opened his eyes, revealing complex emotions.
When Orochimaru saw Sarutobi Hiruzen like this, he was secretly certain that this teacher must have done something stupid again.
At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly said, “In fact, after Uchiha Disaster graduated from the Ninja School, he tried to come to see me several times, but he was blocked by the Anbu several times.”
When Tsunade and the others heard this, they were slightly stunned and looked surprised.
Orochimaru seemed to be thinking about something. After a moment, he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, “He is just a child, but you do this, old man. You want to tame him, right?”
As soon as Orochimaru said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s face instantly became extremely ugly.
It’s enough for you to know it in your heart, why do you have to say it out loud?
At this moment, Tsunade and others were staring at Sarutobi Hiruzen with unfriendly expressions.
Domestication?
What does Sarutobi Hiruzen treat people as?
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed helplessly. He knew in his heart that no one present was a fool, and everyone already understood the methods he had used before.
He deliberately did not meet Uchiha Disaster in the first few times, and only met him later, simply to test whether Uchiha Disaster could be tamed.
“Old man, go on.” Tsunade said, trying to suppress her anger. Tsunade really couldn’t understand what her second grandfather had thought about back then, and why he passed the position of Hokage to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
If Sarutobi Hiruzen was really so outstanding when he was young, why did he become like this when he got old?
Is power really so terrible that it can change people beyond recognition?
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly and shook his head, then continued, “I met with him afterwards. I have to say that he is a very good kid, but he has some problems with his thinking. When he talked to me, he seemed to understand that some things cannot be said too directly, so he chose to convey some of his ideas and practices to me in an oblique way through storytelling.”
“At that time, he should have been just a child, and just a Genin. He actually did such a thing for the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha?” Tsunade’s face was full of surprise when she heard this.
Orochimaru’s eyes were full of interest, and he said slowly: “As expected of the Uchiha clan!”
Then, he raised the corner of his mouth in a playful arc, and looked straight at Sarutobi Hiruzen, “You must not have taken his words to heart at all, right?”
