Chapter 115: No! It's a dead end!
A few days later, in the Hokage room.
Today, the Hokage table is full of stacks of documents that are as tall as people, but there are many documents on the floor that have not yet been approved.
The reason why there are so many documents that have not been approved yet was all because Sarutobi Hiruzen, in the past few days, did not put his mind to reviewing documents. He has been running around for several days and has visited many people. They are similar to the situation of Naruto and Sasuke, and he went to apologize or so on.
And he did so for two main reasons!
As stated before, the first reason is that he does not want to stand on either side. He does not want to damage the village, so the only thing he can do is try to ease the relationship between the two parties.
Therefore, he used the simplest and most direct method.
'I hope that my personal visit and apology can play a role in alleviating it.'
If some of his old close friends knew that he was so low because of such ridiculous thoughts, maybe they would laugh at him in the back, laughing that he is no longer worthy of the title of Shinobi.
But they didn't know that the reason Sarutobi Hiruzen does this actually has a deeper meaning!
This is related to the second reason...
In the Hokage room, sitting in the Hokage seat, absently gazing at the scenery outside the window, he is now waiting for a person, and this person is the key to the second reason!
The scorching sun was falling slowly, and Sarutobi Hiruzen was still waiting.
Even if someone wanted to report something to him during the period, he waved his hand and let others leave.
He doesn't know how long he waited, but the sky gradually began to dim.
Just then, the voice he was waiting for was finally heard behind him!
Yamanaka Inoichi: "Third-Kage."
[*TL note: Inoichi Yamanaka (Yamanaka Inoichi) was the head of Konohagakure's Yamanaka clan, and along with Shikaku Nara and Chza Akimichi, he was a part of the 15th generation InoShikaCh trio. He was also the head of the Analysis Team in the village's Intelligence Division.]
That's right!
Sarutobi Hiruzen waited so long for Yamanaka Inoichi!
As a Hokage, he knows that Yamanaka Inoichi has a special ability, 'Mind Reading Jutsu'! And the second reason why he lowered his body before, to visit or apologize, is here! He wants Yamanaka Inoichi to spy on everyone's thoughts afterward! Thus inferring the real hidden dangers hidden in the Konoha Village!
Of course, this so-called Mind Reading Jutsu is not 100% accurate. He can only read the general thoughts of the other side and needs some language guidance.
It's like Yamanaka Inoichi asking the target: "Do you want to hurt the village?"
No matter how the other party conceals it, Yamanaka Inoichi can also rely on the 'Mind Reading Jutsu' to read out the true thoughts of the other side.
Yes, or no.
As for how to hurt the other side, how to act, what to plan, and a series of more detailed answers, it's not going to be known through the jutsu.
But, This is enough for Sarutobi Hiruzen!
At the same time, this is one of the reasons why he opened Jiraiya. He is very clear about the character of this student. If the target that was spied out were someone whom Jiraiya also values, it would be difficult to do, and Jiraiya will definitely stop him.
Therefore, he retreated!
With the excuse of abdicating, he let Jiraiya go first!
As for... if the matter has not been resolved, and if Jiraiya will come back with Tsunade...
That does not matter!
Just remember one word, drag!
As long as he keeps dragging on, he believes Tsunade will not be so thick-skinned. In front of him, she would only say: "Hey! Old man! Didn't you say you gave it to me?!"
Therefore, all plans have been arranged.
Now just waiting for Yamanaka Inoichi to say who has an evil intent for the village, he can also contribute his last energy to the village and solve this hidden danger!
As soon as he heard Yamanaka Inoichi's voice, he turned around quickly along with the Hokage seat, and an expression of great joy appeared on his face: "How?"
Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head: "No problem."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows slightly wrinkled, questioning: "Naruto, Sasuke, is there any problem?"
Yamanaka Inoichi nodded.
Thinking for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to ask, "What about Hyuga Hinata?"
Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head again, saying 'no problem'.
Yes.
Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata are the objects he told Yamanaka Inoichi to pay attention to. Although this practice certainly greatly impacts his image, Yamanaka Inoichi's impression of his Hokage will also fall to the bottom. As a Hokage, he couldn't care much.
After all, except for Hinata, Sasuke, and Naruto, the suspicion of other people is not as big as them. As for the Clan Leaders of the Great Clans, a few old close friends, and some high-level people in the village, this is not what Yamanaka Inoichi can spy on.
Because everyone knows everything, including this.
If Yamanaka Inoichi is a little abnormal, how can the other party not realize anything?
Therefore, for these people, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not allow Yamanaka Inoichi to spy. He just relied on his own judgment to grasp the idea of the other side when he visited.
Only,
Even Hyuga Hinata is fine...
There's something strange, but he can't pinpoint what it was.
For the Great Clans Leaders, as well as several old close friends, although he doesn't have 'Mind Reading Jutsu', he still has some experience in watching people. He is very sure that none of these people want to destroy Konoha.
As long as there is no such extreme idea, everything is easy to discuss.
At the same time, there is no such thing as a hidden danger.
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, indicating Yamanaka Inoichi to leave.
..
Again he was left alone with the huge Hokage room; He looked up and thought...
'No problem with Naruto'
'Hinata is no problem'
'Sasuke has no problem'
'No problem at all, then.'
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was condensed. The sharp gaze, looking at the distant direction outside the window!
'The problem can only be with Uchiha Itachi!'
...
While Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking about hidden dangers, Yamanaka Inoichi also returned home.
When his wife saw that his expression was not right, his wife said with concern: "What's wrong?"
Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head: "It's okay."
When his wife saw he was unwilling to say, she stopped asking.
In this scene, Sarutobi Hiruzen was destined never to see it. More importantly, what he never knew was that Yamanaka had spotted Hinata's problem. However, under the condemnation of his conscience, he did not continue to spy. He also chose to hide the truth for this little girl...
