Chapter 252 The Third Hokage's Showdown
The head of the Intelligence Department never dreamed that one day he would have to go to the Hokage's office to complain.
In the past, he always dreamed that he could bring all the village's intelligence systems into the Intelligence Department. Unfortunately, the idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.
Because the Anbu didn't care about the Intelligence Department at all.
Who do you think you are? You want to take our intelligence!
Now that the Anbu has stuffed all kinds of messy intelligence over, the head of the Intelligence Department realized that he was like a fool.
This is not something to be happy about at all.
The intelligence system of the Anbu still has nothing to do with the Intelligence Department. The Anbu does not allow them to interfere with important intelligence.
Only those messy intelligences are stuffed over, and their Intelligence Department will sort them out like a cow.
After sorting them out, the Anbu will send someone to take the documents away and that's it.
What is this?
You Anbu don't handle your own affairs, but throw them to our Intelligence Department. After we have sorted them out after working so hard, you send someone to take them away without even a word of thanks.
The head of the Intelligence Department was so angry that he almost vomited blood, so he complained to the Hokage's office.
After hearing this, the Third Hokage was speechless.
Didn't you want the intelligence of the Anbu very much before?
Now that someone has given it to you, you are aggrieved and complaining again.
Well, the Anbu just dumped the troublesome work on the Intelligence Department. As for the intelligence system of the Anbu, the Intelligence Department has no right to interfere.
You can't even interfere in the Hokage's office, what is your Intelligence Department.
After a round of appeasement, the people of the Intelligence Department were finally sent away. The Third Hokage could only send people to the Anbu base and ask Jingyi to come.
Regarding the matter of the Anbu dumping the troublesome work on the Intelligence Department, the Third Hokage wanted to have a good exchange with Jingyi.
This kind of blame-shifting behavior is not good.
How long ago was the last time I came to the Hokage's office?
Jingyi almost forgot about it.
Standing in front of the Hokage's office, Jingyi knocked on the door, then opened the door and walked into the Hokage's office.
"Hokage-sama, do you have something to ask me?"
The real boss came, and the Third Hokage put down the documents in his hand.
"Jingyi, just now someone from the Intelligence Department came to complain to me, saying that your Anbu sent all kinds of messed up intelligence to them and let them handle it. Is this true?"
"Yes, is there any problem?"
Jingyi nodded frankly and admitted it, and gave a reasonable explanation:
"After I came back from the Iron Country, I found that the various intelligence documents and scrolls of the Anbu were piled up like a mountain, and I couldn't handle them at all. The Anbu didn't have so many people to handle them, so I was forced to hand them over to the Intelligence Department. As the department responsible for intelligence, shouldn't they handle these things?"
Is there something wrong?
Nothing wrong!
The Third Hokage's eyelids twitched fiercely twice. He was also convinced by Jingyi. Such a shameless talk could actually be said by Jingyi in a reasonable way.
"Jingyi, the Anbu has its own intelligence system."
The Third Hokage wanted to remind Jingyi that the Anbu has its own intelligence system, but you Anbu dumped the messy intelligence to the Intelligence Department, which is not fair.
Unless the Anbu transfers the intelligence system to the Intelligence Department, then you can pass the buck.
"I know."
Jingyi pretended that he didn't understand: "The Anbu has its own intelligence system, but the Anbu is short of manpower, so some unimportant intelligence can only trouble the Intelligence Department. It's all for the village. I believe the Intelligence Department can understand us."
"........."
If they understand, they won't come to complain.
You Anbu is short of manpower, so does the Intelligence Department have more people?
The Third Hokage began to have a headache for no reason.
Forget it, add some manpower to the Intelligence Department.
After thinking about it, the Third Hokage decided to send more people to the Intelligence Department. Jingyi was pretending to be stupid with him, and it was clear that he didn't want to take over these troublesome jobs.
Taking out his pipe, lighting it and taking two strong puffs, the Third Hokage exhaled heavily.
"Jingyi, since the Anbu is short of manpower, I will send more people to the Intelligence Department. In the future, some unimportant intelligence from the Anbu can be handed over to the Intelligence Department. Are you satisfied with this result?"
Ah!
Are you serious?
Jingyi was a little surprised. Is this still the Third Hokage he knew?
"Satisfied, very satisfied!"
No matter what the Third Hokage thought, the trouble was thrown out anyway. Jingyi was very satisfied with this result. This means that there will be less trouble in the Anbu in the future. Less trouble means that he, Hyuga Jingyi, will have more time to rest.
"Jingyi, I hope to have a frank chat with you."
The Third Hokage suddenly said this.
The smile on Jingyi's face faded, and he pulled a chair to sit opposite the Third Hokage.
Sitting on the chair, Jingyi asked, "What does Hokage want to talk about?"
"Talk about Shimura Danzo."
The Third Hokage silenced Jingyi as soon as he opened his mouth.
Jingyi didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Shimura Danzo couldn't hold it in any longer, and couldn't wait to be released, but the Third Hokage didn't dare to let him out easily, otherwise the village would be in chaos again.
But Shimura Danzo had some things on him, and the Third Hokage didn't dare to force him.
This kind of thing of fish dying and net breaking must not happen.
Maybe the net won't break, but the net will be torn open.
The Third Hokage didn't want this kind of thing to happen in the village, which would bring a heavy blow to his reputation and credibility.
"I have done some wrong things in the past, and Danzo is an insider. He threatened me. If I don't do what she wants, he will make it public."
Since we have to talk frankly, let's just be frank.
The Third Hokage chose this.
Now it was Jingyi's turn to be surprised.
The Third Hokage even said this. Shimura Danzo held some handles that were unfavorable to the Third Hokage, so the Third Hokage was caught.
So what could make the Third Hokage so passive?
"What's the price?"
"Hokage, what price are you willing to pay to release this troublemaker?"
Jingyi did not suddenly get angry as the Third Hokage worried, but asked these questions calmly.
You want to release Shimura Danzo, so you have to pay a price.
You can't just let him go with a few words, I won't agree to that.
"What do you want?"
The Third Hokage was not rejected, and his heart moved.
If there is no strong rejection, it means that the matter can be discussed.
As for why Jingyi is not angry and is even willing to talk to him, the Third Hokage is not sure. Fortunately, as long as there is a play, it is fine. As for why Jingyi is willing to talk, he can slowly investigate it later.
What do I want?
Jingyi doesn't think that the Third Hokage can come up with something that can satisfy him.
As for Shimura Danzo... Jingyi used to hope that this guy could be locked up all the time. Now, to put it bluntly, even if this troublemaker comes out and dares to do things against him, Jingyi can crush him to death with one finger.
Why bother about whether a little bug that can be crushed to death at will is locked up or released.
It's just that the little bug may do some disgusting things, so some unpleasant words must be made clear first.
What am I missing?
