Chapter 432: Hiruzen Sarutobi changed his gender, it would be good if he didn’t do it!
After wandering around aimlessly, Yan signaled to Orochimaru that he could leave calmly.
With such a neither-male nor female guy around, anyone would feel uncomfortable and panicked.
Konoha is preparing for the upcoming New Year, but other villages have no such thoughts.
The Kiri Ninja Village and the Sand Ninja Village were still in a stalemate, and the Iwa Ninja Village and the Cloud Ninja Village began to compete on the battlefield of Takino Country.
The poor country of Taki was plundered by the Iwa Ninja Village from the beginning, and now it has directly become a battlefield between the two major Ninja Villages.
Judging from the situation on the battlefield of Taki Country, Iwa Ninja Village and Kumo Ninja Village have no intention of celebrating the New Year.
Yan thought he could stay in the village safely and spend a lively New Year, but within a few days of being stable, new troubles arose.
"Do we need someone who can make the decision to go to the border in person and stabilize the situation?"
Yan asked with some confusion:
"I remember that the village sent many ninjas to support us."
"The old man is worried that there will be some tricks in Iwa Ninja Village, so he doesn't dare to mobilize the ninjas in the camp casually.
However, more and more refugees are pouring into the Fire Country from the Country of Taki, and the Daming Mansion wants to accept them as much as possible.
The materials consumed in the early stage will still be provided by Daming Mansion, and the village will be responsible for sending people to help stabilize the situation and build the village. "
This matter also gave Tsunade a headache.
It's just the Sand Ninja Village. Who would have thought that as the war in Taki Country became more and more intense, a large number of refugees from Taki Country would flow into the Fire Country.
Now the Third Hokage was worried.
Because he suffered a big loss in the Rain Ninja Village, the current Third Hokage is extremely cautious about mobilizing the border team headquarters, for fear that he may not arrange it well and lead to big problems.
A large number of war refugees need to be settled, but they dare not mobilize the ninjas in the camp to maintain order and help build the village.
In desperation, the Third Hokage had no choice but to resort to the blame-shifting method, throwing the problem back to the village and letting the village make the decision.
As long as I don't do it, then I can't be wrong!
When something goes wrong, it won't be my turn to take the blame.
"...."
Yan didn't expect that the Third Hokage would play like this. Logically speaking, he should take over the matter. Why did he change his gender?
This doesn't seem like the Third Hokage's style of doing things.
Seeing Yan's puzzled expression, Tsunade explained speechlessly:
"Because he did too many wrong things in the past, the old man's reputation in the village was greatly affected. The same is true for the family. The old man is now very cautious in doing things."
"How about I go away and you stay in the village to handle official business?"
"Pull you down!"
When Yan heard this, he was unhappy.
Do you want me to stay in the village to handle these official duties?
There are no doors.
It’s close to the New Year. During this period, there are a lot of nonsense things, which can make people almost exhausted every day.
It was tiring for two people to share the work, let alone one person, so Yan decisively rejected Tsunade's proposal.
"I will go to the border to resettle these war refugees, and you will stay in the village to handle official business."
Tsunade:"........"
I just want to relax, do you need to refuse so firmly?
Yan didn't leave any illusions to Tsunade, and turned around decisively.
In short, it was impossible to stay. He would rather spend the New Year on the border.
Don't stay in the Hokage's office building and stare at various documents and scrolls for more than ten hours a day.
At most, Nara Shikaku can be left to help Tsunade, since he can't squat in the Hokage's office building anyway.
This matter is not negotiable.
The mission department will arrange the ninja team to assist in the work, and the supplies will be borne by the Daming Mansion. They only need to send people to transport them.
Yan just takes the guards and rushes to the border camp.
The Third Hokage did not dare to casually mobilize the ninjas stationed at the border camp, but Yan had no such scruples. As long as the security of the border was ensured and a group of ninjas were mobilized, it would not be a big problem.
Besides, the current Iwa Ninja Village does not dare to provoke Konoha. The battlefield of Takino Country is already painful enough for Ohno.
Unless Onoki was insane, he would not have gone to the Land of Fire to jump around while facing Taki Ninja Village and Iwa Ninja Village to provoke Konoha's nerves.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will be responsible for arranging these tasks and teams."
Although it makes him very tired, Shikaku is happy to take on this job.
The New Year is approaching, and there are still many ninjas in Konoha who are eagerly looking forward to the village issuing more tasks and commissions so that low-level ninjas like them can make a fortune and have a good year.
They just help the refugees rebuild their villages and transport supplies. Such tasks are absolutely free for the low-level genin.
Although the situation in the ninja world is chaotic, the Land of Fire is safe.
Accepting these tasks issued by the village, the probability of them encountering the enemy is not as exaggerated as winning the lottery. At least, it is impossible to encounter the enemy without accidents.
Who doesn’t like tasks and commissions that can be completed with a little bit of effort and time?
Shikaku is responsible for arranging these tasks, and can also win the favor of the lower-level ninjas towards the Nara clan, which is a good thing for him.
"I feel relieved to leave the matter to you. If possible, I usually help Hokage-sama share some of the work. The New Year is approaching. There are many trivial matters, so don't rush to the Hokage's office."
"Don't worry, my lord, I will take care of you."
Shikaku assured solemnly.
"By the way, let's let the newly graduated teams join in. They can also have a long experience and see the cruelty of war."
Patting Shikaku's shoulder, Hiko decisively left the Hokage's office building.
He signaled to the guards waiting outside the building to follow him, then left the village and headed straight for the border.
"Stop looking, he's already gone. How about I ask the ANBU to catch up and replace you with Izumi?"
Seeing Shizune standing by the window looking towards the entrance of the village, Tsunade couldn't help but complain:
"Why, you feel uncomfortable when I ask you to accompany me to handle official business in the Hokage's office?"
This time Yan went to the border. Because he had to deal with a lot of things, he brought Quan, the office secretary, with him.
Shizune felt a little sad when she thought that Izumi was gone and that she had no friends and could only accompany Tsunade alone.
As a result, Tsunade took the opportunity and criticized her.
"how could be."
Shizune suddenly became anxious and quickly explained:
"I will always be by your side, Hokage-sama, and I will never leave."
"You silly girl..."
Tsunade didn't know what to say.
After getting along with each other for these years, Shizune has regarded her as the closest person. The relationship between the two seems to be master and apprentice, but in fact it is more like family.
"Snowing."
Not long after leaving Konoha, heavy snow fell in the sky, which also made the already gloomy sky even darker.
