Hearing Maples' words, everyone in the meeting was a little stiff for a while.
And there was actually a ninja who nodded and walked toward Koharu, ignoring her green face.
"Okay, don't mess around …"
Sarutobi had no choice but to say: "The transfer of elders is also to reduce Konoha's economic expenses last month, so do you have any other issues?"
The meeting room fell into a short silence.
Many people looked at Maples.
At this time, Fugaku said: "Sandaime sama, it's been a month since the funeral of the Fourth Hokage, it's not appropriate for you to continue to worry about Konoha's affairs. I think it's time for Konoha to finalize the candidate for the Fifth Hokage."
This sentence made Sarutobi, Koharu, and Homura's faces change at the same time, and the three of them had the same thought in their minds.
What's coming is coming.
Fugaku paused for a moment, then said calmly: "I propose that Maples be the candidate for the Fifth Hokage, what do you think, Sandaime sama?"
There was a short silence in the meeting room.
Koharu said in a deep voice, "Feng Ye's achievements and strength are enough to become the Fifth Hokage, but isn't he a little too young?"
Maples will become the Hokage sooner or later, and she knows that she can't stop it, at most she can try to delay it.
Hyuga Hiashi, who was sitting on the other side, said: "It's not like there's no precedent of a fifteen-year-old ninja serving as the Hokage in the Five Great Villages. When he officially takes office next year, Maples will be fifteen years old. Moreover, Maples is the Kyuubi's Jinchuriki, I don't think anyone is more suitable than Maples."
The title of Maples has been directly changed to Maples -sama.
In Hiashi's view, Kaede's succession as Hokage is a sure thing.
"The Kyuubi's Jinchuriki …"
Sarutobi glanced at Feng Ye who was sitting there, and he wanted to say, have you ever seen a Jinchuriki who let his tailed beast lie outside the village watching TV every day?!
However, the Kyuubi's Chakra can be divided at will.
Homura hesitated for a moment and said: "Maples is not a problem to be the Fifth Hokage, but I suggest that Maples familiarize himself with the internal affairs of the village first, and serve as the Hokage's assistant for the time being, and the handover when the time is right."
He discussed this matter with Koharu, and the unified opinion is that they should delay it as long as possible, and if they can't delay it, then they should give up and retire.
"I don't think it's that troublesome."
Shikaku Nara put down the document in his hand and said: "When the Sandaime took office, there was no handover process. The various departments of Konoha are now very stable. It's better to familiarize yourself with them one by one."
Koharu, Koharu: "But that is war …"
True Red Sunset said in a deep voice, "Advisor, don't forget that the current peace was created by Lord Maple Night."
The Jinchuriki: Jinchuriyuru's, Jinchuriki:
Except for a few Jinchuriki who were loyal to Sarutobi, the other Jinchuriki, including the patriarchs of the major clans, almost unanimously expressed their support.
Ever since the First Hokage, Hashirama, Konoha hasn't had a situation where all the major clans could reach a consensus.
"Maples, what do you think?"
Sarutobi looked at Maples stiffly.
Maples smiled and said: "I'm indeed a little young, so maybe it's not suitable for me to serve as the Hokage so early, but there are some things that I think it's better to announce."
As he said that, Maples took out a document and threw it to Sarutobi.
Sarutobi took the document and glanced at it.
His fingers immediately froze.
"Hokage-Sama, what's on it? Please read it. "Fugaku looked at Sarutobi and said.
Sarutobi's fingers trembled twice, he glanced at Maples, then looked at Koharu and Mitokado next to him, this gaze made Koharu and Mitokado feel bad.
"Hokage-Sama, please read it."
Hiashi said in a deep voice.
The other Jinchuriki also spoke.
Sarutobi glanced at the meeting room that was completely out of control, his mouth moved stiffly, but he still read the document.
It was the money that Koharu and Mitokado took from Konoha's economy during their years as consultants, a total of more than billions of Ryo!
In fact.
This part of the funds belonged to Konoha's dark funds.
A large part of it was allocated to Danzo by Koharu and Mitokado to maintain the development of the Root organization, including the liquidity of some of Konoha's Anbu operations.
But even so, the two of them were still not clean enough. A portion of the funds fell into the hands of the two of them.
Usually, these funds won't be investigated, because Konoha is under the control of Sarutobi and Koharu, but Konoha is no longer the Konoha of the past.
There was silence in the meeting room.
Everyone looked at Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado.
In fact, everyone present knew that these funds were the liquid funds of the dark side of Konoha, but they also knew that Utatane Utatane and Homura were the ones who handled these funds, and it was impossible for them to be clean in this matter.
Koharu and Mitokado's expressions completely confirmed this point, both of their faces were extremely ugly, they wanted to try to explain, but they couldn't.
"Interrogation Department."
In the silence, Maples said faintly.
"Yes!"
The Captain of the Interrogation Department stood up.
Maples waved his hand and said: "Take them away and carefully interrogate them, we need to confirm the flow and whereabouts of every fund."
"Yes!"
The Captain of the Interrogation Department came in front of Koharu and Mitokado and said: "Two advisors, come with me."
Koharu and Mitokado looked at Sarutobi and wanted to say something, but Maples directly bent his finger, and an air bomb flew out and hit the two of them.
Boom!!
Koharu and Mitokado flew back at the same time, hitting the wall behind them, and spitting blood from their mouths.
"Maples … You!"
Sarutobi stood up.
Maples looked at Sarutobi and said: "I think it's better to carry out the punishment after the interrogation, what do you think, Sandaime?"
Sarutobi's face was stiff, he looked at the indifferent eyes in the meeting room, and finally sat down and said: "Well, let's do it this way."
He had already expected this day.
But he didn't expect Maples to be so ruthless.
It's not as simple as directly depriving Koharu and Mitokado of their power and status, but also nailing them to the pillar of shame … Thinking of Sakumo's matter, it can be said that it's an eye for an eye.
