This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill

Chapter 229: War or Peace?

Chapter 229: War or Peace?

In the Hokage building, Sarutobi, who was sitting in front of his desk, was looking at the frontline report that had just been sent back. His face revealed a complicated expression.

Although it had been several days since the battle had ended, he could still feel the tragic aura from the words above!

Especially the long string of casualties, which was extremely shocking.

If the war with Kumogakure did not end, Konoha would really lose all his remaining money.

After seeing this battle report, Sarutobi's first thought was not joy, but an incomparably heavy one.

Then, what he thought about was not to order Shikaku to pursue the victory and chase all of Kumogakure's people back to his hometown, but to think that if he were to negotiate with Kumogakure at this time, he would have a slight chance of success!

Yes, no matter if it was the initial disadvantage or now that the victory had been won with great difficulty, there was only one solution that Sarutobi could think of, and that was to negotiate and then sign a peace treaty that would not invade each other.

It didn't matter if he said that he didn't want to advance or that he was too indecisive.

Sarutobi, this Third Hokage, was unable to inherit the primary purpose of hegemony and the primary purpose of development and seeking to change spirit.

It was indeed his biggest flaw when it came to defense, but at the same time, it was also his greatest advantage.

It was also because of this that the primary chief chose to give him the position of Hokage instead of Danzo.

Because this family business needed someone to protect it. On this point, Sarutobi was the best candidate, and he had the determination to give up his life for the village!

Sarutobi did not fail to live up to this expectation and once brought Konoha to a more glorious road.

Unfortunately, the battles over and over again turned this glory and prosperity into a short-lived scene. Now, Konoha was in the most vulnerable situation.

After frowning and thinking for a long time, Sarutobi still could not make up his mind.

Should he carry this great victory and force Kumogakure to yield, or simply give up the victory that he had already obtained and take the initiative to seek peace talks?

Personally, Sarutobi was more inclined to the latter. He really wanted to end this war immediately.

But if he did this, how could he explain it to those who had died and were still alive?

Sarutobi couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

Then, he carefully read the report again. However, this time, he didn't focus on the casualties and other information, but on the names that Shikaku mentioned repeatedly.

Hirohiko Mikawa, Shinomiya Aoba, Uchiha Itachi, Gekkou Hayate, and even the names of Uchiha Shisui!

All the members of Mikawa's class were on Shikaku's list of names. They also recorded the missions they had completed during this period of time and the achievements they had made.

Even Sarutobi, who had expected these little ghosts to be outstanding and make a name for themselves, couldn't help but be secretly speechless!

Especially Shinomiya Aoba, those people of Kumogakure had met this troublemaker, they were unlucky!

Not only did they manage to find the enemy's base camp, they even dared to say that Kumogakure was just so-so and that he was going to beat up ten Raikage.

To be honest, when he saw this, Sarutobi's expression was really as wonderful as it could be.

He was boasting to the heavens!

If he was still a Genin, he was confident that he could beat ten Raikage, then when this brat came back, wouldn't he have to give up his position?

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to be Hokage - what if he was beaten up?

He was using the later relying on self-created semi-finished forbidden techniques forced to kill the elite Jonin of Komugakure, Darui, and even sang with particular arrogance in the battle...

If this kind of thing happened to others, it would definitely cause Sarutobi to not know whether to laugh or cry.

But in front of Shinomiya Aoba, who said 'I want to beat ten Raikage', it was definitely nothing!

Maybe one day, this bastard will directly kill the enemy Jonin with one song. Sarutobi may be surprised for a moment. Well, it can't be more.

It can also be seen how many 'surprise' Aoba has made since he came to Konoha, so that even the dignified Hokage is a little accustomed to it, thinking that it is nothing.

Forbidden?

Oh.

Singing during the battle and defeating Kumogakure's elite Jonin?

En, not bad, not bad.

And don't forget, among these 'surprise', there were a lot of 'shock', the kind that had a thrill...

Based on the many contributions that Mikawa had made in his class, he had promised Uchiha Fugaku to let Itachi go to the front line for training, and even allowed him to send Uchiha Shisui to secretly protect him. It could be considered as the right step!

It had to be known that the two consultants did not wish to involve the people of Uchiha Clan at that time.

Ever since the incident with Kyuubi, it seemed that suspecting Uchiha had become politically correct. Even Sarutobi, who wanted to believe Uchiha, did not really let go of the doubts in his heart.

However, he still strongly agreed to Fugaku's request. Firstly, he admired Uchiha Itachi's talent and calm character, and had already thought of taking him in.

Secondly, the conflict between Uchiha's clan and the village had become more and more intense recently. This was a good opportunity to ease the relationship between the two sides!

Now that he looked back, this step of his was really too wise, and he had also gained a lot of things.

Perhaps when Itachi grew up, he could become a new bridge for the village to communicate with Uchiha.

Sarutobi, who was in a much better mood, sat back in his seat and began to give Shikaku new instructions.

Although the negotiation was a must, maybe he could wait for Kumogakure to take the initiative to propose the negotiation.

After all, so many people could not die in vain. The one who had the initiative in this war was Konoha!

Therefore, even if they wanted to negotiate, they had to have the relevant compensation. Otherwise, others would think that Konoha was the defeated party in this war.

Of course, if Kumogakure refused to accept it no matter what, he could give in.

To end the war, peace was the most important thing right now!

As for the other things that could be fought for, it was naturally the best. No, it was better than continuing to fight!

It had to be said that Sarutobi was really 'steady' and could endure it.

......

Not long after Sarutobi received the news from the frontline, Danzo also learned about the specific situation.

Happy, maybe a little.

After all, the person who won was Konoha!

However, after frequently seeing the name of a certain kid, his good mood was instantly broken.

Danzo frowned and put down the information in his hand. Then, he asked unhappily, "What's going on with that Akatsuki? Why does he have to see me?"

"Maybe he is worried. According to what our people said, the leader of the other party must see you before he is willing to talk about the specific cooperation."

Danzo was very unhappy. "All the cats and dogs take themselves seriously. Go and take a trip for me. Don't expose your identity."

"Yes, Danzo-sama!"
