Chapter 727: Advisor Position
......
Walking out of the Anbu’s Headquarters, Kanpū suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said to Minato, “Hokage-sama, now that the matter has been resolved, it’s almost time for Shisui to return to Uchiha Clan, right?”
Shisui has been living in Konoha as Kanpū’s shadow clone for the past few months. Fortunately, Kanpū doesn't have a girlfriend, otherwise, he might be cuckolded!
“I almost forgot about it.”
Minato smiled and looked towards the Anbu, who had been following behind, and said, “Go invite Uchiha Clan’s Clan Head to Hokage Tower to see me at conference room in half an hour.”
“Yes!” Then Anbu left after he got the order. But before leaving, he glanced at Kanpū bitterly: ‘We should be equal, but why does Hokage-sama only ordered me to do things?’
When Kanpū got this look, he raised an eyebrow at him triumphantly.
“By the way, Kanpū, I want you to go to Ichigo hot spring inn and visit Kirigakure’s envoys.” Minato suddenly turned his head.
Kanpū’s eyebrows almost cramped: “Okay, okay, no problem.”
He covered his eyebrows and rubbed them.
Minato looked puzzled, then shook his head and said: “In addition, disband the Anbu there.”
Before Kanpū could respond, Hiruzen next to him intervened and asked: “Yondaime, by withdrawing the Anbu, are you not worried about those demonstrating people attacking Kirigakure’s envoys?”
Although the patients at Konoha Hospital have woken up one after another during the past few months of recuperation, waking up does not mean that the past things can be forgotten. Those people are still staying outside the Ichigo hot spring inn to get an explanation for this matter!
Minato smiled and said: “Isn't the matter already very clear? The initiator of everything is Danzo!”
Hearing this, Kanpū’s eyes lit up: “I understand!”
As he said that, he didn't give Hiruzen a chance to beep, and ran away in a flash.
Hiruzen was angry and anxious, and said: “Yondaime, isn’t it too rash? Danzo is still an Advisor in the eyes of the villagers. By rashly putting all the responsibility on him, what if the villagers cannot accept it?”
Minato wasn't annoyed by this. He just looked at him with a smile and said, “Don’t worry, Sandaime, you have to believe in us!”
“I... Of course I believe you, but...” Hiruzen wanted to say a few more words, but for a moment I really don't know what to say.
He can’t just say ‘give me some face and leave some dignity to Danzo’, right?
Hiruzen, who has never eaten the Face Face Fruit, really couldn't say it. (T/N: The joke is actually from Chinese’s One Piece Fandom. It is said that Shanks has eaten Face Face Fruit, that’s why everyone will give him face for whatever he asked, just like at Marineford at the end of the war.)
Seeing that he stopped talking, Minato smiled and said: “Then I will go back to Hokage Tower first.”
......
On the way to Ichigo hot spring inn, Kanpū was blocked by another ‘him'.
“Shisui?” Kanpū raised his eyebrows.
“It’s me.” Shisui, who is still walking as Kanpū’s shadow clone, looked dejected, as if he had been rejected by a girl.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Kanpū looked at him strangely and said, “By the way, Hokage-sama will meet with Clan Head Fugaku in half an hour. They should be talking about making your matter public.”
Shisui’s body trembled, and his decadent eyes sparkled, bright and piercing: “Really?!”
Once it becomes public, he can go home openly as a Konoha’s Shinobi and return to the Uchiha Clan!
‘Then I can go see Itachi!’
Kanpū nodded, and then boasted shamelessly: “Shisui, you have to thank me for that. If it wasn’t for me, Hokage-sama would have forgotten about your matter.”
After saying that, Kanpū glanced at Shisui, but found that Shisui was only focused on his own excitement and completely ignores him.
Although Mei was disguised at the time, he could still smell the familiar scent at a glance!
However, Kanpū couldn't expose it, so he could only say: “Yes, the situation has been brought under control, and the truth has been revealed. Everything is done by Danzo, and Hokage-sama has removed him from the Advisor Position. If you I still have dissatisfaction, shall I go to Anbu’s Headquarters to scold him more for you?”
Mei seriously nodded: “Okay!”
Kanpū was startled, and then sighed silently: ‘Advisor Danzo, gomenasai!’
......
Hokage Tower.
Small conference room.
Not long after Fugaku arrived, Minato arrived.
“For Yondaime to call me, is it regarding the matter at Hokage Rock?” Fugaku asked.
Minato shook his head and said with a smile: “No, it’s for Shisui.”
“Shisui?” Fugaku’s heart skipped a beat, ‘Did that brat Itachi sell me out just after I told him the truth about Shisui?!’
‘That ungrateful brat!!’
When Fugaku was secretly furious, Minato said: “Shisui has successfully completed mission.”
“Eh?” Fugaku suddenly came back to his senses, “Yondaime means?”
“In fact, Shisui had already returned to the village a few months ago, but considering Danzo’s affairs, he has never showed up.”
Minato said with a smile, “Now that things are settled, it's time for Shisui to return to Konoha.”
Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
“I will explain this to the village later. As for the Uchiha Clan, I will have to trouble you.” Minato said.
“I understand!” Fugaku nodded solemnly.
‘As soon as Shisui came back, those radicals in the clan had no reason to oppose Yondaime and me, the Clan Head.’
“Then, I’ll take my leave first.” Fugaku said, and was about to get up and go home.
“Wait.”
Minato motioned him to not be impatient and said, “There is one more thing I want to discuss with Clan Head Fugaku.”
“Please tell me, Yondaime.” Fugaku sat down again.
“I have just dismissed Danzo from the Advisor Position. I would like to ask if Clan Head Fugaku is interested in taking up this position.” Minato asked solemnly.
Fugaku was shocked, and his face subconsciously showed expression of ‘You were teasing me and it is impossible for me to believe in your nonsense’, but it was quickly replaced by excitement and ecstasy. Soon, he something, and he tried hard to restrain himself but found that he couldn't restrain the joy on his face.
Minato couldn't stand it any longer and couldn't help but pour cold water on him: “The premise is that Clan Head Fugaku will resign from the position of Military Police Force’s Captain!”
Fugaku’s expression froze when he heard this.
‘Resign from the Military Police Force’s Captain?’
‘No problem, I can just let Itachi take over... No!’
Fugaku is not stupid, and soon realized that it could never be that simple!
Sure enough...
He then heard Minato continued: “Kakashi will take over your position!”
