Chapter 215: Confrontation at the Hokage Office!
Chapter 215: Confrontation at the Hokage Office!
“Uchiha Tang Ping, do you know your crimes?”
Danzo struck first.
"Bringing so many people to Konoha without reporting, are you planning to betray the village?"
These words were directed at Uchiha Xiangtai and his people.
And the angle of the attack was flawless.
Indeed, those people's arrival was unreported, so if there was a problem, it was indeed there.
"Lord Danzo, I don’t understand what you mean. Those people seem to be Konoha Shinobi, and they are the 'Heroic Sacrifices,' right?"
Tang Ping directly rebutted.
Even if he was a senior, he wouldn’t comply.
Like Uchiha Fugaku, Shisui, and Itachi, they would always yield to Danzo, one couldn’t help but wonder if it was due to their congenital softness (Fugaku…: Are you polite?).
"Hmm, if they are Konoha Shinobi, then what’s the deal with their forehead protectors?"
Danzo revealed the truth with a smug look.
Indeed, the headbands on those people had already changed to the 'Heaven' symbol, instead ofof the Konoha headband.
From this aspect, it could be said that they had voluntarily abandoned their Konoha identity.
"Shouldn't we ask the reason first?"
Tang Ping’s gaze swept the office F4 with disdain.
Really, what shameless people!
Clearly, they were the ones who forced him to have no way of preserving his Konoha identity, and now they accused him of voluntarily abandoning it, which was completely shameless.
However, to mix well, being shameless is indeed the primary condition.
"Cough, cough!" Ape Hiruzen could no longer hold back and lightly coughed twice, interrupting the two people’s deadlock.
The other two beside him were completely faceless and heartless, just like ten thousand-year-old turtles, completely shameless.
In other words, among the Konoha F4, the one most concerned with his reputation was Ape Hiruzen?
However, this also made sense.
If not for his excessive concern for his reputation, he wouldn’t have established the Root Division to take the hit.
"Uchiha Tang Ping, you didn’t follow the order to the front lines. Are you defying the command?"
Danzo took advantage of the situation to press.
The two were completely at odds, so he naturally had to play the 'black face' role, while the other two elders acted as mediators, ready to ease the tension when things got out of hand.
One could only say, don’t underestimate the F4 combination. They had controlled the Konoha tree for decades, showing their true power.
"I, as the main general, should have the authority to make decisions on the spot, so deciding to return to the village for a rest is also normal, isn’t it?"
Tang Ping didn’t back down in his words.
As a part-time 'troll' and 'keyboard warrior' before his transmigration, he wasn’t weak in this aspect.
"Then what’s your purpose today?"
Homura Mitokado, seeing the situation was against him, immediately interrupted.
"I think the Uchiha Mainbranch people like the southern scenery, so they want to go and appreciate it now…"
Tang Ping tactfully expressed his request.
Everyone should set off immediately! And in the letter, they promised to complete the mission afterward.
"Bold!"
"You are too presumptuous!"
Danzo and Koharu Utatane, rarely standing on the same side, were both extremely displeased with Tang Ping’s ‘threat.’
Indeed, in their view, this was a threat to themselves.
Clearly, they had already reluctantly agreed to the terms, but still couldn’t trust themselves, how could they not be upset.
And Ape Hiruzen and Homura Mitokado’s expressions were also unpleased, but they didn’t lash out.
The two still had some hidden strength.
"Did you only realize today how much courage you had?"
Tang Ping remained unmoved.
Because he was truly indifferent, if the village high-level officials disagreed, he would ‘fall ill’ right there on the spot.
I’m seriously ill, you can’t make me go to the front lines, can you?
"So, you are refusing the village's command?"
Ape Hiruzen asked with a stern demeanor.
With his words, the air in the office seemed to instantly chill.
Anbu members appeared everywhere, all locking onto Tang Ping and them.
Yamakai Koji and Shizune Amekage made no movement, as if they sensed nothing.
As for Tang Ping, he had already seen through it. Ape Hiruzen was ready to use the 'momentum' to force his submission.
Just one time, and there will be a second, countless times.
Faced with the head of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Konoha, this force is not something ordinary people can bear.
Unfortunately, they miscalculated one thing.
Tang Ping is not an ordinary person!
His Strong Kage-level strength gives him enough confidence to protect himself.
Let alone the fact that he has two teammates, one being a Kage-level meat shield, and the other a powerful Kage-level existence, who possesses the terrifying Rinnegan and Tailed Beast.
In terms of pure 'human' combat strength, Tang Ping is even inferior to Hyuga Cangyue.
With this hidden super trump, even if Konoha really has some preparations, he is completely risk-free.
The most fear is when the air suddenly becomes quiet!
A few minutes later.
"Step back!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly waved his hand, and that one Anbu quickly vanished, as if he had never appeared. The few people's auras also became restrained.
"These conditions I cannot agree to, change them!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone was firm.
Once these Uchiha Mainbranch clan members leave, things will really get out of control.
"Since the Hokage-sama has agreed to let them go to Tianshou Pavilion, now it's just a matter of timetimebeingTang Ping directly pointed out.
Is the Hokage really going to give you face?
"Uchiha Tang Ping, in front of the Hokage, you must maintain respect as a Konoha Shinobi!"
Koharu Utatane, dissatisfied, reminded.
"Of course, Hokage-sama, I am respectful."
Tang Ping 'raises his hands in a bear hug.'
He did not directly slap the other's face; he has been restrained enough, hasn't he?
If it were a different situation, he would probably punch even harder, perhaps even smash the table and beat up Danzo. They aren't saying he would not take their tricks?
Tsk, they are truly a bunch of deadbeat bullies.
While inwardly deriding, Tang Ping was full of confidence.
Choosing to create trouble at this moment was entirely because he knew that if he did not stop the 'Ebi' duo from wreaking havoc, the northeast region of Fire Country might be devastated.
At that time, the loss would be countless wealth, population, and so on. Thus, Fire Country would definitely panic and give Konoha a death order.
Because Konoha is essentially Fire Country's mercenary, now that the employer's wealth is being destroyed, shouldn't the mercenaries you pay take responsibility for the destroyer?
Seizing this point, Tang Ping dared to directly come to Konoha Village, reveal his hand, and pressure the palace.
Otherwise, would you think he is really reckless?
Clearly, Tang Ping's 'oil and salt don't enter' appearance directly made Konoha F4 nervous.
In the past, when facing the village's strong, as long as the Will of Fire is upheld, everything would work out, at most being tricked by them again.
But now?
They are completely not buying it.
So, after a few exchanged glances, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado slightly nodded to Hiruzen Sarutobi, showing their stance.
"We can agree to your demands, but there are a few conditions!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi understood that this time he could only agree to Tang Ping's terms, or the Cloud Shinobi Army would really destroy everything.
Choose the lesser of two evils!
He naturally understands this.
But he cannot just agree, some demands need prerequisites.
"Hokage-sama, please speak!"
Tang Ping also perked up, wanting to know what the conditions would be.
"First, these people must secretly leave, without anyone discovering the truth!"
"Second, after they leave, they must not reveal their identities, and Konoha Village will not acknowledge their existence!"
"Simultaneously, these people can only reside in Tianshou Pavilion; otherwise,
even if Konoha is destroyed, I will wipe them out first!"
"Finally, you must expel the 'Ebi' duo!"
...
Hiruzen Sarutobi successively put forward several demands.
All of them were trivial, just to save Konoha's face.
Faced with this, Tang Ping could not refuse.
"Alright!"
He decisively nodded and turned to leave, preparing to fulfill the agreement.
As for the migration, it would be handled by Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Jingxiang, so no need to worry.
After receiving the payment, the next step would be to start the mission.
