Chapter 252 Returning to the Village for the Final Fight with Danzo!
As the time for signing the contract was set, Todai immediately left the border of the Country of Fire with the remaining troops without any nostalgia and returned to Kumogakure.
However, Shikaku was not careless. He just carefully cut down half of the personnel and arranged for them to return to the village. He himself continued to station here with the remaining people in case Kumogakure's people suddenly killed someone.
He will lead his team back in triumph only after the peace agreement is officially signed.
In this way, Qingyu and others set foot on the road home first.
And the deeds of many ninjas who had glorious moments in this war also spread out for some reason, and became the talk of many people after dinner.
Among them, the reputation of the Mikawa class, which is very conspicuous, has also greatly increased, especially the strong rise of Qingyu and the others, which is like a shot in the arm of Konoha at this moment, making many people look forward to their future.
Whether their enemies call them the 'Three Ghosts of Konoha' or their own people give them the title of Supernova, they are all very proud.
It was under such circumstances that these heroes of Konoha returned...
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
When Aoba, who was among the team, finally returned to Konoha, in addition to the many villagers on both sides of the street who spontaneously came to greet them, to their surprise, there were also the Hokage and Konoha senior officials standing at the front. .
Obviously, this is already the highest level of recognition and honor for them!
"Heroes of Konoha, thank you for your sacrifice and welcome you home."
Sarutobi took off the Hokage hat on his head in a particularly solemn manner, and then bowed deeply to all of them.
Mito Kadoen and others behind him also followed Sarutobi's movements and expressed respect to them.
You can say that they are putting on a show and trying to win people's hearts, but at this moment, these soldiers who retreated from the front line only feel their blood rising, and they feel that their sacrifices and efforts have not been in vain!
The village has never forgotten them. They are heroes recognized by the Hokage himself!
So each of them subconsciously puffed up their chests proudly, and solemnly shouted those words under everyone's gaze.
"The will of fire is endless!"
As long as there are leaves flying, the fire will burn, the shadow of the fire will shine on the village, and new leaves will sprout!
Sarutobi's eyes were a little red, but what followed was relief and pride. He was proud of Konoha, proud of them!
Even Qingyu and the others seemed to be infected by this heroic atmosphere, and a sense of identification with the village emerged spontaneously.
This also made Qingyu sigh in his heart about Konoha's terrible grasp on people's hearts.
In terms of spiritual construction, it is estimated that even the other four major ninja villages combined are not as good as Konoha. This can also explain why Konoha can always stand firm and rarely rebel.
After Sarutobi thanked these heroes, the villagers' welcome ceremony to celebrate their triumphant return also began. Although only half of the people came back this time, this did not hinder everyone's enthusiasm.
So even though it was a little embarrassing, under this enthusiasm, a warm scene of military and civilian fun was still staged.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
While the celebrations were happening outside, Danzo was huddled in his lair, his eyes gloomy.
Originally, at this time, as one of the top leaders of Konoha, he should have followed Sarutobi to gain some sense of presence.
But this time Sarutobi rejected his companions because of his infamous reputation.
Although Sarutobi said this decision in a tone that was good for him, Danzo still felt that he had been greatly humiliated.
Yes, as the "Legend of the Ninja World Zangzhi" became more and more popular in private, many people looked at him strangely when he went outside. Almost everyone who knew about his existence would subconsciously regard him as The main character brought into the book.
After realizing that there was no way he could save himself, he could only try to reduce the number and time of his appearances in front of others, hoping that time would smooth it all away.
Originally, Danzo was thinking of some excuse to avoid this highly anticipated scene, but in the end, Sarutobi stabbed him in the back first!
Although the final result is the same, Danzo's idea is that I can not give it, but you can't give it!
Can the effect of speaking out about resigning and being fired be the same?
So Danzo was unhappy and angry!
Especially the kid who came back alive and well.
They are all a bunch of trash!
As the saying goes, blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.
Just as Danzo was incompetent and furious, his subordinates sent him another annoying news.
"Danzo-sama, Akatsuki's people have lost their patience and sent an ultimatum. They said that if we are not sincere, we will cancel our cooperation."
boom!
Slapping the table hard, Danzo said with a cold look: "If you don't cooperate, you won't cooperate! Do you really think I'm begging them?"
"But... Xiao's people said that they will only release him if you show up in person. If we break up with the other party now, I'm afraid that our people will be in trouble, and it will be difficult to get the deposit paid in advance. Come back."
Upon hearing this, Danzo's expression suddenly became even uglier.
At first, he sent his subordinates to disguise themselves as him and lead people to meet with Xiao's people.
As a result, the fake identity was immediately discovered by the other party. Not only was the person and money taken away by the Akatsuki organization, but one person was even released to send a message.
They plausibly said that they were not sincere. They agreed that the leaders of both parties would meet to discuss cooperation, and then they sent an impostor? Are you looking down on people?
Danzo Qi's liver ached, but there was nothing he could do against the Akatsuki organization whose strength should not be underestimated.
I communicated several times intermittently with no good results.
Just one sentence over and over again, show sincerity if you want to cooperate, and everyone should meet and sit down to talk.
Forget about pretending to be a fool, the Akatsuki organization does not work with cowardly people for fear of being dragged down.
Danzo is so angry!
What do you think your mercenary gang is pretending to be?
A little too cautious?
Who else can set up a trap for you?
Why do you have to meet the real owner before you cooperate?
Can my identity be exposed?
If you get hold of this, even if you successfully kill Sarutobi, the Hokage's position will not be secure!
Danzo felt a little melancholy, but now he was in a difficult situation.
Unless he is willing to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, he will no longer want the people and the money.
But he really couldn't swallow this breath!
And seeing him getting further and further away from the Hokage's position, to be honest, he was unwilling to do so.
Another look at the peace agreement Lenovo is about to sign with Yunyin...
Danzo's eyes kept flickering, and he finally made up his mind to find a future.
"Tell Akatsuki that it's okay to meet, but the time and location are decided by us. If it works, we'll do it. If it doesn't, we'll break up!"
PS: The war is over, and a new plot will begin. In addition, I am really difficult. People in the group hate me every day. When I was coding, I came out, and then I appeared, and the screen was full of women's clothing. Seeing that I refused to give in, these bastards threw it away after using it and told me to go back and code. Tool people, don’t they have human rights? Unless food and accommodation are included (full monthly pass subscription)~
