midnight.
Before Qingyu could sleep, he could already feel the breath outside.
The sound of soft footsteps sounded.
Finally appeared in ANBU's room.
Aoyu didn't even need to think about it to know that the person coming was Namikaze Minato, because no one would look for him except Minato Minato, and tomorrow was the official handover ceremony of the Hokage. He knew that Namikaze Minato would definitely come here, and then follow him He went to have a chat, whether from judgment or perception, he would know that different provinces would definitely come.
It is precisely because of such a situation.
Aoba never rested, he was waiting for Namikaze Minato.
During this process, Aoyu had actually expected it, so he did not take the initiative to find Namikaze Minato, but waited for Namikaze Minato's arrival.
This does not mean that he must gain some initiative or passivity, but he feels that as long as Namikaze Minato takes the initiative to come to him, then he can take a strong initiative in the subsequent negotiations. , this also allows him to realize more of his own value in Namikaze Minato in the subsequent events.
It didn't take long.
There was a slight knock at the door of Aoba Anbu's dormitory.
"Qingyu, it's me."
Before Aoba could ask a question, Namikaze Minato's voice sounded outside us.
"The door is unlocked."
Aoba replied calmly inside, it seemed that there was no accident at all due to the arrival of Namikaze Minato. He was still sitting here writing, holding a pen in his hand and writing the above bit by bit. Word.
In recent times, Konoha Village has been in a state of turmoil.
Qingyu recorded everything that happened with a pen.
After all, once these things are put aside, it is likely to become very late in the future, and many people do not know the inside story.
Crunch…
With the sound of opening the door, Namikaze Minato opened the door of the ANBU room and walked in. His eyes fell on Aoyu and saw the words Aoyu was writing.
"Are you still writing novels?"
Namikaze Minato took a deep look. Qingyu didn't have any jealousy in his heart towards Qinglu, a very talented person, nor did he have any desire to get rid of or be afraid of him, because he found that Qingyu had One of the biggest characteristics is that they don't take these things seriously at all.
for such a thing.
actually.
Namikaze Minato hopes that Aoyu can become more proactive, and hopes that Aoyu can have more thoughts on making achievements.
On the contrary, he did not want Qingyu to devote all his attention to writing novels, and he did not want to show his face. Otherwise, with Qingyu's strength, he would be able to occupy a more outstanding position in Konoha Village.
Maybe this is what you gain and lose.
No one is perfect.
It would be like this for anyone.
In the past, Namikaze Minato did not think of these things, but as time went by, he suddenly discovered that this was not only the charm of Aoyu, but also an aspect of Aoyu that he felt regretful about.
on these things.
It's hard for Namikaze Minato to really deal with it, something that makes sense to him.
Everything has undergone a series of changes because of what happened here.
It was precisely because of things like this that Namikaze Minato felt a lot of regret when he saw Aoyu in his heart.
Namikaze Minato really hopes that Qingyu can stand up and do something for him in Konoha Village.
As long as you can do enough things, nothing will matter.
But.
The person in front of me.
At this juncture when he was about to become Hokage the next day, he was actually still writing a novel.
This actually gave Namikaze Minato a feeling of dumbfounding.
After all, what he can clearly feel is that Qingyu has no attachment to the power of Konoha Village. This means that Qingyu will not form any constraints on his power at all. .
This is a completely different concept from Danzo.
The third generation's ability to become Hokage relied to a large extent on Danzo's ability.
But.
after that.
Danzo is no longer the same Danzo.
Danzo was at the root of the establishment of Konoha Village, and began to use various means to control Konoha Village. Although Danzo was nominally maintaining a dark justice, allowing the village to quickly develop in another dimension. Development has carried all the darkness, but after all, this is still somewhat contrary to Namikaze Minato's concept.
It is precisely because of this reason that Namikaze Minato actually does not really hope that Qingyu can be fully qualified for Danzo's job. He only wants the part of Qingyu that he thinks is good in team battles to help him, and what Danzo brings Those ills Qingyu will not appear.
He knew that it was actually quite difficult to ask Qingyu like this.
When anyone has such talent, stronger desires will swell in their hearts, and these desires will support them to move to higher abyss.
It is precisely because of things like this.
Namikaze Minato's psychology had actually been carefully considered.
Will Qingyu make any excessive demands after he becomes Hokage, and then interfere with what he does to a certain extent
But now it seems that such a thing has not happened.
And there's absolutely no sign of anything happening.
At this time, the gods are even more convinced that Qingyu has no intention of doing anything to fight for power.
Because at this time, Namikaze Minato feels that Aoyu has made a great contribution, and with this contribution, he has said many, many things.
The fact that Namikaze Minato can be in this situation now, can allow Konoha Village to achieve such a staged victory, and can allow the third generation to bid farewell to Hokage completely, his position actually has a decisive relationship with Aoba.
But in such a situation, Qingyu didn't say anything, which is enough to show that Qingyu didn't have too many thoughts when dealing with these things, otherwise he would have taken this opportunity to propose himself 's appeal.
Under such a premise.
Namikaze Minato had a very strong thought in his heart.
He knew that there were not so many requirements for Qingyu.
This is the most difficult to deal with.
The more clear the request, the more convenient it is, but the more you are like a couple who has no request at all and just writes a book, the more difficult it is to deal with it.
"What plot are you writing now?"
Namikaze Minato looked towards Aoyu with a smile and asked his own question, because the current question explained exactly this matter.
In fact, he didn't really want to know what Qingyu was writing. Although he also liked reading novels about lovers, tomorrow was the Hokage handover ceremony, and he wanted to know what he was like.
He wanted to have a good discussion with Qingyu and find out how to solve the problem in the end.
So at the moment, he actually didn't particularly care about things involving other things.
Especially those novels.
It's not what you need to worry about at this time.
To some extent.
Namikaze Minato just regarded this sentence as an opening statement.
"This is not a novel."
After hearing Minato Namikaze's words, Aoyu immediately shook his head, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile. He seemed to be waiting for Minato Namikaze to say these words, because he already knew that Minato Namikaze was seeing When he acts, he will definitely use such an opening statement.
So under such a premise, he has already been waiting for him here.
After saying that, he spread the notebook forward, exposing it to Namikaze Minato's sight.
Before Minato Namikaze could ask him the doubts in his heart again.
Qingyu spoke again.
"This is history!"
"A book involving the history of Konoha Village!"
"I have recorded everything that happened during this period in detail in this book!"
"I will give you this book!"
"And there won't be a second one!"
"As for what you will do with this notebook, that is your business!"
"I think it might be helpful to you in the future!"
Qingyu said one sentence after another, and he recorded everything that happened recently, but what he recorded was not the facts, but the facts written by the winner.
It has been said throughout the ages.
History is written by the victors.
History is not necessarily entirely true.
But it’s what the winner wants everyone to see.
Qingyu knows very well that there are some things that different provinces don't know, but he knows that if he wants to be a real leader, the first thing he must learn is to lie.
This kind of thing is very difficult to say, but it is a real truth, because if anyone keeps telling the truth and tells the truth to everyone, then when he becomes a leader, he will There is absolutely no way to achieve this level of intelligence.
This is what must be done.
Therefore, Aoyu wrote this book not to inspire Namikaze Minato, but to let Namikaze Minato see what happened in the recent period. Of course, the things in this are what Aoyu wants Namikaze Minato to see. arrived, but did not actually happen.
The whole process Aoba wrote in the book was actually how they controlled public opinion during this period so that the third generation could not fight back, and how they used Xiaonan to build Ichiraku Ramen into a perfect Internet celebrity shop...
Everything that happened from Namikaze Minato's perspective during this period is recorded in it, but it is not completely correct, because many things did not actually happen, but were just handled by Aoba, and it is in this world The biggest mastermind in the world.
But he didn't say any of these things.
And will never say it.
Many secrets, he is destined to remain secrets forever.
Qingyu only needs to know these things for himself, because the world is like this, and many truths will not completely surface.
"this… "
Namikaze Minato glanced at it blankly. The words above were indeed what happened during the recorded period. He originally thought that everyone would keep everything in their hearts, but when Aoba wrote this book, he suddenly It awakened his memories of this time.
"I see."
Namikaze Minato nodded, saying that he seemed to understand what Aoyu meant, and his eyes became determined, but what exactly he understood, Aoyu didn't ask, only he knew.
That's what happened during this period. It's not airtight. In fact, besides them, there are still some people who know about it.
So if these people know about such things and one day expose the things inside like Danzo, then the current third generation will be the fate of Namikaze Minato in the future.
certainly.
How will this matter be handled
It was Namikaze Minato who had the final say.
Aoba was just giving Minato Namikaze a hint in his own way. This tip was also very simple. He was telling Minato Namikaze through his own actions that this matter was not that simple. It is possible to expose everything known.
But how to prepare and control these people, and how to arrange these people properly, that is Namikaze Minato's problem.
Qingyu didn't have a particularly good idea on this matter.
After all, he could draw on the history, in addition to releasing military power over a glass of wine, and cooking cunning rabbits with dead lackeys, but these are not a particularly good way to deal with it, nor are they particularly suitable for Namikaze Minato's way of dealing with it, but they are It is a very effective way to directly solve the problem.
Therefore, Aoba did not tell Namikaze Minato the methods he knew, because once he said it and Namikaze Minato followed it, he might have done it according to his ideas but not done it, which is indirect from this level. and rejected his idea, which would add a lot of problems to their relationship.
The most important thing is that Namikaze Minato will soon become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village, so Aoyu feels that he should not dictate how to deal with these issues.
Of course, there is another level of problem, that is, if Aoyu expresses his own truth on these matters, it will be equivalent to interfering in Minato's choice of style.
Also, if Minato Namikaze heard these relatively ruthless and direct ways of solving problems that Aoyu said, he might have a certain degree of change in his mind towards Aoyu.
None of this is a very good way to go.
so.
Qingyu decided not to say anything.
certainly.
As a very good friend, Qingyu doesn't necessarily say nothing.
What he had to do was to prompt Minato Namikaze with many questions and tell him what he would face in the future.
As for these problems, how should he face them in the end.
What kind of solution is used...
That was what Namikaze Minato needed to think about.
Aoyu felt that as long as he pointed out these problems to different Minato, then this sense of proportion would have been achieved.
"but… "
After seeing Namikaze Shuime's solemn expression, Aoyu immediately smiled, then took out another notebook on the table and spread it out on the table.
"I did write a few novels during this time, and these books have been piled here. I urgently need to establish a publishing house for you after you become Hokage!"
Aoba said half-jokingly, because he didn't say anything about Namikaze Minato before. That was because he was still mature at that time. He didn't help Minato do anything. They were just a simple person. Friendship.
If they are just friends, then directly making such a request after another friend has developed is very draining and damaging to the friendship.
Aoyu knew that as long as he spoke at that time, Namikaze Minato would definitely agree, but the relationship between them might end there, and even if Aoyu wanted to hide in the Leaf Village in the future, it would not be that easy. things.
but.
After paying attention to these problems now.
Namikaze Minato already has a very strong gratitude to Aoba, and even hopes to do something to repay Aoba.
Making such a request now would just make Minato Namikaze feel better, and it would not consume their friendship. In fact, after Minato Namikaze contributed, it would actually enhance the friendship and bond between them.
Although this is the same thing, if it is brought up at different times, it will achieve a completely opposite effect. In the relationship between two people, it can also make everything better.
This reminded Qingyu of a joke that people often joked about in the real world.
Although this paragraph does not seem to be particularly appropriate here, the truth is still the same.
That is, confession in the relationship between two people is not the charge to launch an attack, but an add-on after victory.
Now Qingyu has such a feeling, because if he brings up the matter of the publishing house before doing anything, then for them it will be equivalent to adding a certain negative bargaining chip to their own relationship.
But now that the dust has settled, Aoyu's image and status in Namikaze Minato's heart have completely changed, and in Namikaze Minato's thoughts, Aoyu has put in a lot of hard work in this process.
It is precisely because of this that when Qingyu proposed a publishing house, Minato did not have any surprises or opinions at all, because he had already said that he would give Qingyu a publishing house, but now Qianyu proposed it. When he came out, he seemed to be giving what he had already promised again, but it did not increase the burden on Namikaze Minato, nor did he ask for anything else, but it allowed Qingyu to speak and fulfilled everything perfectly.
"no problem!"
Namikaze Minato nodded almost without hesitation. He looked at Aoyu seriously again, feeling even more grateful for the reputation in his heart, because he could see that the reason why Aoyu said this was actually... A feedback on the feeling of indebtedness within oneself.
If not.
There was no need for Qingyu to do such a thing.
Now that Qingyu can directly say this, it is equivalent to giving him a very big step forward.
Namikaze Minato originally thought that Aoyu was a person who didn't understand the world very well, because the lovers had always been in the ANBU, and they didn't deal with anyone at all. But at this time, he suddenly found that Aoyu was not interested in this kind of thing. The care and sense of proportion that can be achieved are almost smoother than those of many consultants working among the top management of Konoha Village.
Because many times when their consultants are considering things, they are more concerned with estimating the overall situation and their own interests without considering all the interests. When they say something, they think that what they say is a very reasonable option, but they Not an option that the Hokage really wanted.
But Qingyu is different.
Namikaze Minato found that when Aoyu said a lot of words, he was completely considering his position.
This is not easy.
Even though there are many people who are willing to contribute to Hokage, what they really want most in their hearts is still themselves.
perhaps.
This is what Sandai once said.
You can think like a Hokage.
All of a sudden.
Namikaze Minato became even more satisfied with Aoba.
So much so that at this moment, the eyes he looked at Qingyu were filled with a very pleasing feeling.
"That's good!"
Qingyu smiled and nodded.
He felt very satisfied with the publishing house.
Because now he only writes some powerful works that were originally very peak, but this is only a very small part of his cultural invasion of the ninja world.
There are still many things he wants to continue to do in the future.
Here he can write more things that are originally cultural in the real world.
These cultures can be gradually brought into the ninja world.
Although he didn't know which cultures people in the ninja world were more willing and able to accept, he felt that he could make some more attempts.
These attempts can make him understand more clearly what he plans to do next.
at the same time.
So I think he can perceive the customs and customs of this ninja world through the sales and feedback of these books, because many things cannot be known by asking or conducting surveys. Sometimes people often say one thing, but Saying that I am is another thing.
The difference between what one thinks and what one says is an old tradition that has been in the human world for a long time.
People tend to be tough with their mouths but honest with their bodies.
There are many things that everyone continues to complain about.
That's the truth.
Qingyu felt that he had to really test everyone's bottom line through sales volume when it came to matters like this.
For example, the works of Mr. Bai from the Ninja World that he has sold before have indeed received a lot of popularity in the Ninja World, and the sales volume is worthy of the popularity.
But in the real world, if you ask about this book, many people will tell you that they have never read it or even listened to it. But in fact, they have read it countless times and taught it. How many assignments have you done
Under such a premise.
Qingyu is very clear about such things, that is, many times there is no need to think too much about these issues.
Surveys are not that important. You can directly let the market feed back the data.
Therefore, Qingyu feels that it is very good to have a publishing house. At least it has higher flexibility in many places, and on many issues, he still has more room for innovation. He still needs to research a lot more This is something that he likes very much in his heart, and it also allows him to find some sense of his own existence in the ninja world.
In the past, when he came to the ninja world, all he wanted was to live.
These are very simple questions with no requirements.
But as he slowly gained a foothold in the broadcast, and after tossing around in the ninja world, he began to become the boss who controlled everything behind him.
Then in the next process, he can use his own way to make everything change.
Think of this.
Qingyu's heart was still very full.
After all, he still likes these things very much.
Being able to do what he likes is a very happy thing for him!
"How could I deny such a thing!"
Namikaze Minato said with a smile. He felt that Qingyu was indeed in many places and did not cause him any trouble.
Whether it was the benefits given to him or the interference in power, the only place where she had some conflicts was related to Xiaonan's secondary definition.
But this definition did not bring any harm to Xiaonan.
During this process, Namikaze Minato also knew that he had misunderstood Aoyu.
but.
Namikaze Minato did not take the initiative to mention this matter.
He didn't say.
Qingyu didn't say anything.
Aoyu and Minato Minato still maintain their usual tacit understanding.
Because Aoyu himself didn't care about this matter. He knew that he had to do this at that time to let Minato Namikaze know how dangerous the matter was. So now that everything has passed, there is no need for Aoyu to settle old scores with Minato Namikaze. .
There is absolutely no point in doing so.
Under this basis.
Aoba did not talk about Konan's problems to Namikaze Minato, and Namikaze Minato also did not guide these topics.
For Namikaze Minato.
At that time, he only had one need.
This is because he doesn't want this matter to affect Xiaonan.
He still has a lot of ideas about Xiaonan.
The simplest reason is that he hopes that after Xiaonan can become a ninja of Konoha Village, he will no longer be burdened with negative news.
This was also the biggest reason why Namikaze Minato was completely opposed to Aoyu in terms of opinions at that time.
Namikaze Minato didn't want to see those bad experiences repeated to Konan again.
After all, he has a great responsibility in this matter. He is Xiaonan's senior brother.
He didn't help Konan become a ninja of Konoha Village.
But he succeeded in pouring several basins of dirty water on Xiaonan's body.
To a certain extent, this made the determination in Namikaze Minato's heart become less calm.
Namikaze Minato hoped that such a thing would not happen to him.
But.
The reality greatly exceeded his expectation.
To a certain extent, Namikaze Minato can almost be said to have brewed these current events with his own hands.
immediately.
Konan caused a very strong whirlpool of public opinion in the Leaf Village.
In a strategic sense, the influence of Xiaonan's public opinion has indeed covered up some of the problems of the third generation, making it impossible for the third generation to fight back in the first place.
But the same problem also appeared in Xiaonan.
Namikaze Minato didn't want Konan to become so ferocious when dealing with these things.
This is a very kind point in his heart.
after all.
Namikaze Minato really didn't want to sacrifice anyone in the great cause of becoming Hokage, even if it was the so-called overall situation.
But under such a premise, he still needs to control public opinion through Xiaonan in order to block the problems of the third generation.
This actually made him feel an extremely strong sense of guilt and guilt in his heart. He even didn't want to see Xiaonan for a while.
This is because he feels that he has no face to see Xiaonan at all, and Xiaonan has caused other debts in this matter. Until he really cleansed Xiaonan, and saw that the public opinion of Konoha Village has changed towards Xiaonan. After being very friendly, he was no longer willing to reverse Xiaonan's public opinion, because he felt that it might cause more harm to Xiaonan, even if the problem could be solved in the end.
It is precisely for this reason.
Namikaze Minato and Aoba reached a point of difference.
What the two of them were thinking about was actually in completely different directions.
From Minato Namikaze's point of view, Aoba's perspective of thinking about the problem was entirely for the important events of Moye Village, and he began to wonder if doing so was unfair to Konan.
It was also through these problems that Minato Namikaze realized that those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. In fact, on many issues, they are not worth mentioning compared to the position of Hokage. If he wins in some small places, but in the overall If you lose in some small areas, you will have nothing. However, if you lose in some small areas but win overall, then those small areas can be solved in the follow-up.
but.
Namikaze Minato felt that it was enough for him to know these words in his heart.
These are all things he learned from Qingyu.
He felt that he could thank the couple properly in the future, but there was no need to admit his mistakes like Qingyu at this moment, which would be equivalent to lowering his momentum even further.
"Qingyu, I'm here this time to ask you something!"
After Namikaze Minato and Aoyu made a roundabout way, he changed the topic to what he was most concerned about and wanted to say the most. In fact, he could not have used such greetings, but since he knew Aoyu's talent , and after deeply realizing the ability of this genius, he more or less respected Qingyu when he spoke.
Therefore, in order to show his respect, he did not get straight to the point and enter the topic directly. Instead, he and Qingyu exchanged greetings with each other to a certain extent before entering the topic.
However, from the current perspective, these are not completely meaningless, because he has indeed obtained more solutions for himself through such things.
He helped Qingyu here and truly owned a Hokage publishing house, but this publishing house had not yet been officially established.
But this is not a problem at all, because he has agreed to this matter, then this matter will be done first after he becomes the fourth generation Hokage of Konoha Village.
For this point.
Namikaze Minato still believes in his ability to keep his words consistent with his actions.
So after agreeing to Qingyu's request, when he raised these doubts next, he really felt less nervous.
If he hadn't even given this promise yet and asked him to talk about these things directly, he would definitely have some hesitation in his heart to a certain extent and feel that he owed Qingyu too much, and the current topic is It just solved his concerns.
To some extent.
Namikaze Minato was able to return some of Aoyu's luck.
"whats the matter?"
Aoba immediately suppressed the smile on his face. He had actually guessed that Namikaze Minato would come here, because tomorrow is the Hokage succession ceremony. After experiencing these problems, he felt that Namikaze Minato would definitely negotiate with him on such issues. Let him discuss it.
This is a very important thing and not a small thing.
To some extent.
Namikaze Minato doesn't care about many problems.
If you must still care about whether the third generation has any plans during this period, whether it will cause any problems in the Hokage Machine Blade Ceremony.
So Minato Namikaze will definitely come here to ask for his opinion.
Aoyu had already guessed that Namikaze Minato would come here, so he started writing the notebook early.
"Tomorrow is the Hokage succession ceremony. I will become the Hokage of Konoha Village. In the day just now, I conducted the handover of power in Konoha Village with the third generation. He told me almost all the precautions, and in this There is nothing unusual in the process, should I trust him?"
Namikaze Minato immediately asked the most doubtful point in his heart. This question mark had been hanging in his heart for a whole day, because he had been thinking about when the third generation would say these questions. But he never waited, because the third generation always seemed to be in this process, as if nothing had happened, just like an elder, he explained everything to him one by one, and there was no trace of anything in this process. The problem.
"So this is what happened..."
Aoyu could look away at the discomfort. In fact, in his heart he just knew that Namikaze Minato would definitely come here to look for him. But what was the reason for coming to him and what kind of questions would he ask? His heart was still There isn't a very complete answer.
It is precisely because of this.
He didn't know what kind of questions Namikaze Minato would ask him.
On the basis of these issues.
Aoba also had some doubts about what Namikaze Minato might be asking about.
Now that Namikaze Minato had asked the first question in his heart, Aoyu hardly needed to think about it.
"If I'm not wrong..."
Qingyu immediately started his answer. In fact, no one knows what the current situation is like better than him, but he will not tell all the situations according to his own wishes, but will tell different things according to different people. words, and put them together completely.
This is similar to the ancient feeling of hiding something from the sky.
This situation develops throughout reality.
What everyone knows is another story.
And everyone thinks that another situation is what really happened. In fact, everyone no longer cares about what happened in normal reality before, and even thinks it is impossible.
In this case, you will have a very strong sense of accomplishment in your heart.
"After we finally nailed the third generation's coffin, there should be no particularly strong pursuit of the position of Hokage now!"
"He should know that it is impossible for him to return to the position of Hokage, so he gave up directly. He hopes to start a formal handover with you."
"Before this, even in the Land of Fire, the Daimyo really recognized that you are the new generation of Konoha Village. The third generation of Hokage has never conducted a handover mission with you. This shows that the third generation has always been ambitious before, and Now that his ambition has been completely lost, this means that the third generation has completely given up, and he believes that it is impossible for him to become Hokage again!"
"So I feel that whether it is the handover he has with you today or the formal ceremony tomorrow, the third generation has no real plans to do anything anymore, but has withdrawn from all competitions!"
"So even though Minato said it's still a little early to celebrate and it's not completely settled, I think you can really breathe a sigh of relief."
"Tomorrow you will officially become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village!"
Qingyu said one sentence after another, because he knew very well what was happening at the moment, and he also understood what was going on here. He had almost all the information from both sides at his fingertips, and no one understood what was happening here better than him. Where are all the problems.
That is to say.
If Qingyu chooses not to help the third generation now, then there will be no chance for the third generation to make a comeback.
Judging from the current time and trend, unless Qingyu stands on the side of the third generation, and the third generation still has the possibility of making a comeback, even if anyone else comes, it will not work.
That is to say.
The position of Hokage of Konoha Village has actually been settled at this moment.
Or to put it earlier, the dust has settled a long time ago, but no one knows that the dust has settled. Everyone is under Qingyu's arrangement, just like chess pieces, usually playing chess. But there was no suspense from beginning to end, because everything was a destined outcome.
"Can you relax now?"
There was some confusion in Namikaze Minato's eyes, because Aoyu had told him before that he could not relax until the last moment, but now it was not the last moment, and Aoyu told him that he could relax. These two completely He was a little confused about the different standards.
"Wouldn't this be too hasty!"
"I always have an uneasy feeling in my heart!"
"The more the third generation behaves like he has completely given up, the more I think he may have problems in some areas!"
"That is to say..."
"I feel that the third generation did not completely give up. He just used this method to let me lower my defense capabilities."
Namikaze Minato expressed his true thoughts. He felt that the Third Generation was not helping him but that the Third Generation was trying to paralyze him and make him careless. Then when he felt that everything was under control, he suddenly jumped out. He showed a trump card, but he didn't say it completely clearly, but expressed his meaning slightly.
These words actually made Aoyu completely understand what Namikaze Minato was thinking.
Think of this.
Qingyu was quite satisfied in his heart.
If Namikaze Minato came here and said these words to him now, but said that he felt that the third generation was no longer a threat, and then relaxed his vigilance, then he would dissuade Namikaze Minato from letting down his vigilance easily at this time. .
But at this point in time, seeing Namikaze Minato with such seriousness in his heart, he began to comfort him instead.
"The third generation has no bargaining chips now!"
Qingyu said slowly, until the third generation had fired the last bullet in the pistol.
And from the beginning to the end, the three generations of pistols have never been usable.
This is just an illusion created by Qingyu for the third generation, making the third generation mistakenly believe that he still has the strength to fight, but in fact, the third generation is not enough to watch here.
certainly.
These picture qualities cannot be said to Namikaze Minato intact.
Because these things cannot be said.
But he could let Namikaze Minato know the problem here through other reasons.
"Is there really no way he can make a comeback?"
Namikaze Minato still has a very strong uneasiness in his heart. Even he himself doesn't know where this uneasiness comes from. It may be because during this period of time, he has been brainstorming the third generation into a very huge villain, and even I feel that the third generation has a very important weight in his hands, which can reverse the entire situation in an instant.
After all, judging from the current situation, if Xiaonan's public opinion alone can restrain the three generations here, then it seems to be somewhat unrealistic.
If some of the schemes of the Third Generation were solved so easily, then the Third Generation did not make any particularly powerful plans.
But such words are contrary to it.
After all, he could tell from the beginning that the third generation hoped to give him a heavy blow through the incident between Danzo and Orochimaru.
If you can imagine what happened to Danzo and Orochimaru, how could the third generation have no backup plan
Now that we have reached the most critical moment, how can we just give up like this? No matter what, this gives Namikaze Minato an unbelievable feeling.
"If it goes as we guessed before..."
Namikaze Minato spoke again. He hoped to try to persuade Qingyu to let the latter know the danger here, because he found that when he told Qingyu these things this time, Qingyu didn't seem to pay special attention to what he said, but instead It made him feel as if he wasn't already so unstable, but Qingyu was the first to float up.
But there is another problem here.
That is because Namikaze Minato has always used his understanding of Aoyu. He knows that Aoyu is not such a person. He understands that Aoyu will not be so unstable, and there must be a reason why Aoyu does this.
next moment.
Namikaze Minato's pupils shrank severely.
He suddenly realized a problem.
It seems that he has always judged Qingyu based on some subjective appearances, but he has not thought about Qingyu's true core.
From the current point of view, Qingyu does not seem to care about these things, but he has been chatting with him here. If Qingyu does not really care, but pretends not to care, then it may convey A more eye-catching meaning.
Is Qingyu testing himself
There was such a question mark in Namikaze Minato's head immediately, because he suddenly remembered that at any time in the past, couples had to keep Namikaze Minato calm when talking, and not to be too easy until the dust settled. He came to a conclusion, but at this time, Qingyu took the lead in coming to a conclusion.
He must be testing himself.
Namikaze Minato suddenly became determined in his heart.
Because he felt that after Qingyu said this, if he followed Qingyu's words and continued to say this, Qingyu would definitely say it again.
Because he doesn't think there is any particularly big problem when it comes to Xiaonan. Even now, he doesn't feel that Xiaonan's reputation has any impact on the previous problems of the third generation. It seems that whether it is said or not, it has already been resolved. The problems of the third generation have been dealt with here, but when talking about them now, it is as if the previous crises have never occurred.
"This matter is very serious!"
"The third generation can stand in front of me grandly and make a full handover. He must be hoping to paralyze me before the ceremony."
"This Hokage's ceremony is the last duel!"
"The third generation will definitely throw away all the territory here to fight to the death with me!"
"In the past, the third generation has never had the right to speak. It is because of this issue of Konan's public opinion that he has never been able to tell the story about Danzo and Orochimaru!"
"But things are different now..."
"At tomorrow's Hokage Succession Ceremony, the Third Generation will definitely have a lot of opportunities to speak. So as long as he finds any opportunity to tell the end of what he said and guide it to me, Danzo and him will After saying that, if you show up..."
"That would be too dangerous for me!"
Namikaze Minato has been deeply aware of the seriousness of the problem here, because he found that the sense of crisis they discovered at the beginning about what the third generation might do was not actually relieved, they just postponed this feeling.
In a way, what they were talking about when they first talked here was that the third generation might have such a problem at the Hokage's inauguration ceremony.
But the ceremony has not officially started yet.
At present, they have indeed achieved a staged victory, but this victory has used Xiaonan's public opinion to drag down the third generation's words.
The third generation just didn't find a chance to speak.
But as long as the third generation officially attends the Hokage rescue ceremony, then he will have such an opportunity to speak, which is likely to cause more accidents.
There is absolutely no problem with this in theory.
Because from the last conversation to this conversation, Namikaze Minato never had a very strong understanding of the current situation, and the information between them was not exchanged.
Until now, Namikaze Minato has not understood what kind of situation the Third Generation is in and what kind of trump cards he has. He has almost no understanding of the Third Generation because he has no more ways to obtain information. Moreover, Qingyu did not tell him these things. All his crises for the third generation originated from speculation. He had to estimate any possibility and then avoid them.
Under such a premise.
Namikaze Minato was still in the state of worrying about gains and losses. He had previously prevented Aoyu from repeatedly reversing Konan's question.
It's not because he thinks everything can end here, but because he thinks Xiaonan's matter can end here. These are two completely different concepts.
"What you said makes perfect sense!"
Aoba nodded slowly. He was very awed when he saw that Namikaze Minato could realize this. In fact, he thought of reminding Namikaze Minato about this problem at the beginning, but when he saw When Minato Namikaze was so entangled in his heart, he still hoped that through his words, Minato Namikaze could believe that there was no danger in this process.
However, he still ignored Namikaze Minato's learning ability, because during this period of time, he found that Namikaze Minato had adapted perfectly, which was a cautious gesture.
When dealing with anything, you can't say it's over until the last moment.
Once a careless mentality develops, it is very likely that the enemy will come back.
At this point, Namikaze Minato was kind before and didn't think about things so carefully, but at this time, he found that Namikaze Minato could already control these problems very easily.
At this point, it can be seen that Namikaze Minato has indeed made progress.
Aoba also witnessed this progress of Namikaze Minato.
"This is what happened!"
Aoba spoke slowly, preparing to eliminate many doubts in Namikaze Minato's heart, because he knew that if Namikaze Minato went to the Hokage ceremony with such thoughts, he would be more uneasy in his heart, and Instead of enjoying this moment that belongs to him, Aoyu hopes that Namikaze Minato can enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime feeling even more.
"Theoretically, if we do nothing, the Third Generation will tell you what can be said during the Hokage handover ceremony and hold Danzo and Orochimaru's affairs on you!"
"There is no doubt at this point, because that's what we guessed at the beginning!"
"But there is a problem here, which you have ignored!"
"That is, in this process, nothing we do is meaningless!"
"We naturally have our own reasons when doing these things. After Xiaonan's public opinion, the third generation completely lost an opportunity to pave the way. If he is allowed to talk about these things completely, there will be a lot less possibilities. sex."
"In other words, it seems that in this process, we just used Xiaonan's matter to delay the third generation's trump card to a certain extent. The third generation has not yet released his trump card, but in fact his trump card has been revealed Not going out!"
Qingyu explained one sentence after another, because at this time he had to make it clear to Namikaze Minato, but the way to do it clearly could not tell the truth, so he started to use his own way to make up a very special story for Namikaze Minato. A beautiful lie.
Qingyu can be said to have this ability of making up stories at his fingertips. After all, he has written several novels in the ninja world, and he has greatly improved while exercising these abilities.
"What's the meaning?"
Namikaze Minato was stunned at that time. He was confused and had no idea what Aoyu was talking about, because what the latter said seemed to be completely different from what he heard in his ears.
"Did what we did solve the problem of the third generation?"
One question mark after another popped up in Namikaze Minato's head, because in his opinion, the situation has not changed much. Although from an obvious point of view, he has the upper hand and has completed the transfer of power, but According to the plan of the third generation, at this original time point, it would also have some such opportunities, so this does not hinder the original plan of the third generation.
At this point, Namikaze Minato's doubts became even more intense.
He wanted to know.
What exactly happened to make everything become like this...
All of a sudden.
Namikaze Minato kept listening to Aoyu's eyes flickering with confusion.
Because he didn't quite understand the true meaning of Qingyu's words.
He didn't particularly understand Qingyu's meaning at first.
This has happened before.
Even when chatting with Ichiraku Ramen, Minato Namikaze didn't understand what Aoba was trying to express, but gradually with the explanation of vocabulary and subsequent developments, Minato Namikaze discovered Aoba's resourcefulness. The talent is simply different from ordinary people, it is too powerful.
Therefore, he did not choose to question Qingyu at the first moment, but asked Qingyu, because Qingyu had accumulated an impression on him before, which gave him stronger confidence in Xingyu.
"On the surface, we just did Xiaonan's thing, and delayed what the third generation had to do to a certain extent through Xiaonan's public opinion. But from a substantive point of view, we actually gained the trust of the entire Konoha Village , this is a completely different place!”
Qingyu said slowly, because he found a very good entry point. This entry point was also provided to him by the third generation, because before that, he had forgotten about the disbandment of the roots, and the people who disbanded the roots It's exactly him.
It wasn't until Danzo made these public comments again that he remembered that the roots had been disbanded.
When Aoyu said this, he looked towards Namikaze Minato and found that Namikaze Minato's eyes were still flashing with doubts, so he knew that the latter actually hadn't understood what he was going to say. After all, What he is saying now is vague, and he deliberately sold a pipe. If you can understand it, it would be strange.
"Significantly speaking, the third generation has lost the support of the people, because when you were first selected by the Fire Nation's daimyo to become the Hokage of Konoha Village, you did not have any foundation at that time. In the eyes of others, you It’s just a transition from Jonin to Hokage!”
Qingyu started his series of deceptions, and now he has a very powerful magic power, that is, he can bluff whatever he wants to say, and say some truths that no one can refute.
Namikaze Minato nodded immediately after hearing these words, because he indeed discovered such a phenomenon.
To a certain extent, this is true, because he had no foundation at all at that time, and the only people who could really help him follow him were those who came back from the battlefield with him.
So now he began to imagine that from another angle, Qingyu might have seen something. What he didn't see made him listen to Qingyu's words more humbly.
"You had nothing at that time, but the third generation at that time was just burdened with such a negative public opinion!"
"So the situation was very unfavorable for you at that time. As long as the third generation throws out this public opinion, then he will have no problems at all."
"And the public opinion involving Danzo and Orochimaru is very explosive. When he throws these topics out, if it falls on you, you will not be able to catch it. Even if you use any method to deal with these topics later, There are other excuses for whitewashing the third generation, so we were no match for him at that time!"
"Minato, have you ever thought about who these remarks are meant for? Is it you or the Third Generation? In fact, they are not meant for the people of Konoha Village and the major families."
"Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes!"
"Essentially speaking, Konoha Village is just a village. Just being a village is not important, but the people in the village are important. Once everyone in the village recognizes you, then you are the Hokage, but when they If someone doesn't recognize you, even if someone says you are Hokage, you don't have to be Hokage."
"The truth is such a simple truth!"
"I think you can understand what I want to express. In other words, at that time, the third generation still had the power of the Hokage. Whether it was the senior officials of Moye Village or the major families and the senior officials of the major families, they were They are still taking a wait-and-see attitude on this matter, and they have been moving towards the third generation before."
"So at that time, as long as the third generation successfully throws out the matter of Danzo and Orochimaru, it will be equivalent to regaining the trust of these families. As for whether this matter is true or not, is it right? It's really not that important to them that you were wronged, what they have to do is to stabilize their position in Konoha Village, and then stabilize their family's subsequent reproduction and glory in Konoha Village!"
"If you can understand what I am saying now, then you should know the root cause of these problems!"
"When the people in the village recognize you, you are the Hokage. This does not mean that you must achieve something, or that you must be named by the great names of the Fire Country, but when the people in the village feel that you can Bless him and be able to protect his family. If you are a stinging person, then you are the Hokage in their minds, and they are willing to support you. In the past, you have not proved this and everyone does not understand you. So this time is actually a process for everyone to get to know you!"
Aoba was talking about some great truths one after another. These truths seemed very difficult to explain at first, which made Namikaze Minato sound confused. He had no idea what Aoba was talking about, but as he continued to speak, Gradually, he seemed to understand some problems again.
"this… "
Namikaze Minato was stunned for a moment. He was completely speechless, because he found that his knowledge had been subverted again. Some of the things he thought he knew well in the past were brought back to him by Aoyu's words. Entering an unfamiliar field, it made him feel that many of the questions were so reasonable, but it also made him feel as if he had entered a gray area.
"Some of the things we have done during this period have proved a truth, that is, we can be a presence that they can rely on, and tell everyone that the third generation is not really a presence worth relying on."
"The most typical dividing point was a few days ago, when we threw out Xiaonan's last negative public opinion."
"A voice spontaneously appeared in Konoha Village. This was not guided by any of us. It was said by the major families in Konoha Village. The roots have been disbanded long ago."
"What does this mean?"
Aoba looked towards Namikaze Minato, and he found that Namikaze Minato was staring at him in confusion, not understanding the specific reason here at all, and then he started to explain.
"This shows that these families in Konoha Village, we have known from the beginning that their roots have been disbanded. They have spent three generations through their own money, but they have always remained silent. It is not that they do not know this, but that they do not Be willing to stand up and uphold the so-called justice, because justice is the real winner, and only those who win deserve to be justice."
"If you have never shown yourself to be a Hokage that they can rely on in the future, then they will never say this, and they will not say it until the third generation has whitewashed themselves through the roots. They will treat everything as if it never happened and let the third generation stand in the photo position again, because at that time they felt that the third generation could be relied on!"
"But when Xiaonan's public opinions appeared, ordinary people in the entire Konoha Village understood that the third generation was an unreliable person. They already had a very strong distrust of the third generation. They did not want the third generation to continue to serve as Hokage at all. Although ordinary people are still weak, they are the foundation of the entire Konoha Village. This has also stirred up the situation of the entire Konoha Village and made these families realize that the technology of the third generation has begun to invest in you. By the way, he told the news that the roots have been disbanded, which is equivalent to putting a final stop to the three generations of whitewashing words!"
"That's why I'm telling you, actually you don't have to care so much anymore, because you have already won, it's not like you were worried about gains and losses before!"
"Not to mention whether the third generation will do anything tomorrow, even if he wants to pin the hat on you tomorrow, people from various major families will stand up to solve the matter. Instead, the third generation will be It’s a gesture that makes you lose your balance!”
"So actually when the major families start to choose sides, you have already won because you have gained the trust of the major families and the trust of ordinary people. Now this is what you want to win through public opinion!"
Aoba stared at Namikaze Minato and said the last few words. In fact, when he said these words, he had already concluded the entire incident, but he needed to elaborate all the issues from such a perspective.
"This this… "
Namikaze Minato's face was filled with disbelief. He never thought that things would eventually develop to this point, that there would be such an interpretation, and that there would be such turbulent things behind it. He thought everything was as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Thinking of this, he looked at Qingyu with even more reverence.
If you really have anything to do, just discuss it with Qingyu.
Because there were some problems in the situation, he couldn't see clearly at all, but Qingyu could see it completely and clearly.
This is a huge help for him.
Namikaze Minato even wanted to invite Qingyu to help him at this time, but he completely stopped talking.
