Naruto: Farming in the Sand Village with Pokémon

Chapter 119: Hokage Battle

"Dad, I don't want to go back. I want to stay at Brother Luo Sha's house."

Scorpion sat under the banyan tree in the garden, hugging Moon Eevee, with Scorpio King leaning against his back, and ruthlessly rejected Jiayu.

"Xie, your grandma misses you very much, don't you miss your grandma?"

Scorpion rolled his eyes. Every weekend when he went home, Chiyo would wish he would leave as soon as possible.

Does Chiyo look like someone who would miss him?

Seeing that Xie was indifferent, Jia Yu changed the topic and said, "Xie, your parents miss you too. Come home and stay for a while."

"Mom obviously lives in the medical department every day, I don't want to go back to sleep with you, you snore too loudly and it keeps me awake."

Scorpion ruthlessly exposed the truth and complained about Jia Yu at the same time.

"Don't you usually sleep well?"

Jia Yu was shocked. In the past, when Scorpion came home and slept next to him, he never mentioned his snoring problem.

"Because I could tolerate you when my mother was here, but now that my mother is gone, I don't want to sleep with you."

At this time, Luo Sha came over holding Pikachu and watched this drama of loving father and filial son.

"Brother Luo Sha!"

When Scorpion saw Luosha coming, he immediately stood up and threw himself into Luosha's arms, pushing Psyduck down.

"Quaa?"

But Padawan was confused. He shook his head, looked at Scorpion, then turned around and threw himself into Jiayu's arms.

"Brother Luosha, it's so nice here, and Sister Xiaonan accompanies me every day, I won't go back."

"You spend all day either slacking off in the puppetry class or playing poker. You don't study puppetry seriously, and your skills are not even as good as mom's. If I go back, I can only play by myself, unlike here, where I have so many brothers and sisters."

Scorpion continued to complain about Jia Yu. He didn't know why his mother liked his father. Maybe it was because his father had a good mother.

Jia Yu received 10,000 critical hits and left Luo Sha's house in a daze.

"Hey, give me back my Psyduck!"

Two minutes later, Luo Sha realized that his duck was lost. He quickly chased after it and retrieved Pikachu from Jia Yu's arms.

In Konoha, the competition for the position of Hokage is becoming increasingly fierce.

Danzo seized on the fact that Hatake Sakumo was the "Master of Killing for a Thousand Years" and used it to discredit Hatake Sakumo.

The upper stream of Iwagakure's master is Hatake Sakumo. Danzo suspects Hatake Sakumo is a traitor and is secretly colluding with Iwagakure.

What, you mean evidence?

Danzo took out a pile of letters, all of which were written by Hatake Sakumo and Kamisuke Ryuuichi.

He is a big shot, and he has to take the blame for a lot of things, so it is easy for him to frame others.

The evidence was irrefutable and Hatake Sakumo had no way to defend himself. In order to prove his innocence, he had to confront Iwagakure in public.

Hatake Sakumo wants to prove that it was Danzo who framed him!

Could it be possible that Danzo could bribe Iwagakure?

What Hatake Sakumo couldn't have imagined was that Danzo couldn't bribe Iwagakure, but Sunagakure could.

Since Sand Village supports Danzo to become the Fourth Hokage, they will naturally help Danzo bribe Iwagakure.

Danzo had already prepared everything. He had coordinated the testimony with Iwagakure in advance, so there was no chance for Hatake Sakumo to turn things around.

Konoha sent a call request to Iwagakure and received Iwagakure's consent.

Konoha and Iwagakure started a video conference, and Danzo took the lead in launching an attack.

"Tsuchikage, Hatake Sakumo has a close relationship with the Ueshiru Hoichi of Iwagakure. I wonder if you are aware of this?"

"Oh? Is this true? Peiyi is a genius from my Iwagakure Village, how come he has a close relationship with the Konoha ninja?" Ohnoki was very cooperative and asked the question.

"Tsuchikage, can you please call the Kamisui Ryupei for a confrontation? This will be good for both Konoha and Iwagakure. We must find out who betrayed the village."

Danzo immediately concluded that someone must have betrayed his village.

It's either Hatake Sakumo or Kamisui Ryuuichi!

"...Okay, I believe Peiyi will not betray Iwagakure."

Ōnoki was silent for a moment, then agreed to Danzo's proposal.

Ten minutes later, Shangshui Liupeiyi joined the video conference.

Many jonin in Konoha were watching this video conference. Uesugi Ryuuichi pretended to be panicked and asked, "Lord Tsuchikage, what's going on?"

"Peiichi, I wonder if you know anything about Hatake Sakumo of Konoha?"

"Of course, Master Hatake Sakumo is my idol. I learned the Thousand Years of Killing Technique from him!"

"Why did you learn the Thousand Years of Killing Technique from Hatake Sakumo?"

"This……"

"Have you betrayed the village?"

Ōnoki's tone suddenly became stern, and Kamisui Ryupei, who was only a 14-year-old boy, immediately panicked.

"No, Lord Tsuchikage, don't you know about this? You were the one who asked me to contact Hatake Sakumo!"

Shangshui Liupeiyi burst into tears out of fear, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Peiyi, when did I ever order you to contact Hatake Sakumo?"

Ōnoki's face darkened, but he quickly recovered.

"Didn't you say that if we help Hatake Sakumo ascend to the position of the Fourth Hokage, Konoha will cede two provinces to us?"

On the Konoha side, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Many people looked at Hatake Sakumo with disbelief.

But some people still have doubts. They don't believe that Hatake Sakumo will betray Konoha.

Danzo didn't wait any longer, hung up the phone, and went straight to Hatake Sakumo:

"What else do you have to say? The evidence of your betrayal of Konoha is irrefutable, and this confrontation has only confirmed the fact of your betrayal!"

"If you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext! I, Hatake Sakumo, have lived my entire life with integrity. I will never admit to anything I haven't done!"

Hatake Sakumo's words made more ninjas regain their senses.

Everyone has seen what kind of person Hatake Sakumo is, and they don't believe that Hatake Sakumo will betray Konoha.

Besides, everyone can see what kind of person Danzo is...

"What do you mean? Would Iwagakure lie on purpose? Would a 14-year-old kid lie on purpose? What good would lying do to Iwagakure?"

Danzo would never let Hatake Sakumo turn the tables, so he quickly opened his mouth to question him.

“I always think this matter is too strange.”

A civilian jonin spoke up, he had always been a supporter of Hatake Sakumo.

"Yeah, will Iwagakure be exposed so easily? Ohnoki is very shrewd, maybe he is just putting on an act for us."

Another civilian jonin echoed.

"Oonoki is a shrewd man. What does that have to do with Kamisui Ryuheiichi? We suddenly initiated a video conference and Oonoki was not prepared in advance, so Iwagakure was exposed. Isn't this normal?"

A jonin from the Inuzuka clan spoke up to refute, and he was obviously on the side of Shimura Danzo.

"That's right. We have all the evidence. What else is there to discuss?"

The family faction began to speak out, and they all thought that Hatake Sakumo was a rebel.

Shimura Danzo promised them many benefits in advance, which moved them.

The families formed a united front, and this time even the Uchiha got involved.

There was a lot of excitement in the conference room, and the situation was clearly divided into two factions.

Hatake Sakumo looked at the family-faction ninja in disbelief. As the head of the Hatake family, he used to be a colleague and friend of them.

But for the sake of profit, they stabbed Hatake Sakumo in the back.

Hatake Sakumo never expected that after dedicating his whole life to Konoha, he would be easily discredited by Danzo and end up with a stigma.

Because, the position of Hokage...

Danzo has done so many evil things, but there are still so many people supporting him!

Hatake Sakumo is extremely disappointed with the village. Is it worth it that he has spent his whole life for Konoha?

Danzo kept guiding public opinion, while Hatake Sakumo kept his head down and said nothing.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and everyone noticed something was wrong with Hatake Sakumo.

"I withdraw from the election for the position of Hokage. From now on, I will live in seclusion in the Hatake family and will no longer be a ninja!"

Hatake looked at Danzo Shimura, a murderous look flashed in his eyes, and Danzo couldn't help but shed two drops of cold sweat.

Sakumo took off the forehead protector, threw it on the table, stood up and left without looking back.
