Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Chapter 130 Disbanding the Roots

Snapped!

Jiraiya slammed his hand on the table, his gaze fixed on Koharu Utatane.

"I agree!"

"Jiraiya, you...you..."

Koharu was startled by Jiraiya's sudden action, but then became so angry that her face turned red. She pointed her trembling finger at Jiraiya.

He couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

She never expected that Jiraiya, who had always been well-behaved and never interfered in village affairs, would suddenly step forward.

Some of the Jonin who had been recruited by them, seeing that Jiraiya had agreed, were about to speak but then silently shut their mouths.

Wait and see.

Ultimately, ninjas must prove their worth through strength.

“I think it’s a bit inappropriate to hastily cancel the Hokage advisor position.” Mitokado Homura was more composed than Utatane Koharu and did not directly voice her opposition.

I just felt there was something wrong with it, but I clearly disagreed with the suggestion.

They originally thought that Tsunade would only reduce some of their power, distribute it to other departments, or add a few more advisors to take away their power.

But who could have imagined that Tsunade's thoughts would be so extreme, leading her to flip the table?

Remove the Hokage advisor.

Isn't this digging up the roots of those two old guys?

They're both getting on in years, and they're counting on these positions to keep contributing.

Mitomon Homura glanced at Shimura Danzo again, pretending to be casual, and found that the other party was calm and composed, with his eyes closed, looking as if it was none of his business.

Danzo! Say something, Danzo!

"Then tell me what's wrong with it?" Tsunade stared at Mitokado Homura.

Mitomon felt immense pressure. He swallowed hard and forced himself to speak.

"We have worked diligently for Konoha for decades and have made countless contributions. If..."

"Where is the credit?" Tsunade interrupted him.

"The credit lies with... with..."

Mitokado Yan's voice suddenly stopped, and he couldn't explain himself.

Drive the Uchiha clan to the outskirts of the village...

It used to count, but it seems it doesn't anymore.

"Hmph! After serving as Hokage's advisor for decades, he hasn't produced a single merit. In the end, isn't he just greedy for the little power he has?"

Jiraiya directly saw through their little scheme.

"Jiraiya!"

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado were furious, but they didn't say anything in rebuttal. Instead, they both looked at Danzo Shimura.

"Danzo, what do you think?"

The two of them could no longer withstand the pressure from the two of them and needed to find a third ally.

Although Shimura Danzo has become somewhat strange, his personality hasn't changed much, so...

"I agree!"

Danzo Shimura casually expressed his opinion.

Both of them gaped, and Jiraiya looked at Shimura Danzo with the same astonishment.

Is this still the Danzo he knows?

"Danzo, you..."

"Where the leaves dance, the fire will never cease; the firelight will illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout."

Danzo Shimura began chanting, "Koharu, Homura, you've been Hokage advisors for decades. You should have been illuminating the village long ago, instead of continuing to drain its resources!"

"For the sake of Konoha, for the sake of the Will of Fire, you should step down, or perhaps..."

"You dare to defy the First Lord's Will of Fire!?"

Danzo Shimura opened his single eye, which flashed with a fierce light.

Koharu and Homura were speechless.

This is indeed Danzo Shimura's style.

The other party kept talking about Konoha.

In the past, when the other party faced Hiruzen Sarutobi, as long as they said this, many things would go very smoothly.

They just didn't expect that Shimura Danzo would say that to the two of them this time.

They are no longer naive young people who know nothing.

As the saying goes, when someone tells you to consider the big picture, you've already fallen out of it.

When Danzo told them that he was doing it for the Will of Fire, they were implicitly placed on the opposite side of the Will of Fire.

This was the first time they had faced this statement, the first time they had stood on the opposite side of the Will of Fire, and they felt very uncomfortable.

Moreover, they can't refute it yet, because the interpretation of the Will of Fire currently rests with Tsunade.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"..."

After Shimura Danzo spoke, two important figures took the lead, and the Jonin present also expressed their agreement.

Everyone spoke up; after all, while it might be unclear who agreed, it was perfectly clear who disagreed.

Moreover, whether or not the position of Hokage advisor is abolished will not have much impact on most ordinary Jonin.

After all, this power doesn't fall into their laps.

Let's just treat this as a close-up look at the gossip.

After all, this was the first time they had faced such a unique Jonin meeting, with high-ranking members arguing amongst themselves.

Even if I die this time, it will be worth it.

It's a pity we didn't get to see the rivers of blood.

At first, they thought Jiraiya's slap would land on Koharu Utatane's face.

Hearing the sounds coming from below, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado slumped weakly into their chairs.

Spicy!

Tsunade ignored the two and said, "Since no one objects, I will now announce the list of the Hokage's secretary and bodyguards."

"The Hokage's secretaries are Nara Shikaku, Uchiha Mikoto, and Shizune."

"The Hokage's bodyguards are Kakashi Hatake, Yugao Uzuki, Kurenai Yuhi, and Yamato."

After Tsunade finished speaking, the meeting room fell into a brief silence.

Mikoto Uchiha's eyes widened in disbelief; she never imagined she would become the Hokage's secretary.

She subconsciously looked towards Bai Yunqingye, who also noticed her gaze.

Bai Yunqingye turned her head, looked at the other person's stunned expression, and winked at her.

Mikoto Uchiha knew perfectly well that the other party was helping her.

Sasuke is so lucky to have a friend like that.

She couldn't help but pick up Baiyun Qingye, treating him like her own son, becoming even more affectionate.

Uchiha Mikoto's soft, warm body completely enveloped the small white cloud aoba.

This is a feeling completely different from Tsunade's.

Mikoto Uchiha has a more motherly feel to her.

He didn't think anything of it at first, but he soon realized something was wrong.

The Jonin meeting is still in progress, and suddenly many eyes are on him.

"?"

He noticed the strange, ghostly look in Shirakumo Hayama's eyes and quickly struggled out of Uchiha Mikoto's arms.

Of course, this was just a minor incident.

No one questioned Tsunade's decision, nor did they have any objections.

Several Jonin from the Sarutobi clan were somewhat dissatisfied, but their dissatisfaction was mostly directed at Sarutobi Asuma.

They were very dissatisfied with the other side's decision to abandon the Hokage's protection.

As a result, the Sarutobi clan was suddenly removed from the center of power in the village.

Seeing that no one objected, Tsunade nodded.

"Then the next thing is the second thing."

Everyone listened attentively; they had already witnessed Tsunade's domineering nature.

"Disband Root, assign all combat personnel to Anbu, and assign researchers to Konoha Hospital."

"At the same time, Shimura Danzo's position was changed to a squad leader in the Anbu, and three original Root members could be retained."
