As for other people, I haven't found anyone suitable, so I suggest Yokura.
"Are you kidding me? Yekura? She's completely unsuitable." With supporters, there were naturally opponents, so an argument immediately ensued.
Looking at the scene before him, Yashamaru felt an unprecedented sense of worry. The situation was far from optimistic. What should he do?
I don't know, I'm so confused.
He only cares about his nephews and nieces. Now he's afraid of this matter. What will happen when a new Fengying comes up?
"Alright, stop arguing. The matter of the Wind Shadow does need to be put on the agenda, but we can't choose one right away. Let's take our time and keep the number of candidates around three."
"Ye Cang, count that one. We'll continue with the remaining two. We'll be focusing our evaluation on these three candidates. Do you understand?"
Chiyo knew that arguing would be pointless, so she needed to first find out the candidates and spend a few days evaluating them to see who was suitable to become the Fifth Kazekage.
As for whether there are any drawbacks?
There's nothing we can do about it now.
If Luo Sha dies, the village will be leaderless, and a village can't function without a leader. Therefore, a new Wind Shadow is necessary, and it must be chosen as soon as possible. Otherwise, things could go wrong and attract outside attention, which would be a big problem.
Chapter 302 You are a suspect!
When Yecang returned to the village, he found that there were many more guards at the gate.
Generally, there are only two people guarding the gate.
There are definitely others in the shadows, but only two are in the open.
Now, there are four people guarding it.
Two other small teams were secretly providing backup.
This indicates that the village has been placed under alert.
This means that...
It seems they already know.
Yekura definitely entered alone, while Orochimaru infiltrated through another channel. That's not her concern; the spies Konoha had arranged would certainly be able to provide support.
If that's the case, why bother worrying about it?
Worrying and worrying will only cause you trouble.
That's roughly the situation. Yekura's return is a shot in the arm for Sunagakure.
She was quickly taken to the Kazekage Building and received by advisors Chiyo and Ebizo. They mainly wanted to inquire about the situation, since there were quite a few suspicious points regarding Yekura's departure from the village to carry out a mission...
Well, we need to find out.
"What business do you two have with me?"
Yecang knew what was going on, but on the surface she had to pretend not to know, so she had to act out her doubts.
"Yakura, something terrible has happened in the village." Chiyo went straight to the point, without beating around the bush or asking any other questions, and explained the situation first.
"Fengying is dead."
I must say, Yekura's acting skills are amazing.
Shock and disbelief were both conveyed perfectly.
She hurriedly asked, "Grandma Chiyo, what do you mean? Kazekage is dead? How is that possible?"
Kazekage is dead?
This is impossible.
I don't believe it, I don't believe it.
The series of actions were indeed very well executed.
However, Granny Chiyo was no fool; the term "cunning and shrewd" perfectly described her. So even though Yokura's performance was excellent, it still couldn't resolve the doubts in his heart.
"Yes, he's dead."
Chiyo nodded, giving an affirmative answer.
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Ye Cang, you and Feng Ying have some conflicts. You two are like oil and water, right?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cang's expression changed drastically, and she immediately retorted, "Grandma Chiyo, what do you mean by that? Do you have some kind of problem with me?"
“No, this is a normal inquiry, because you are indeed a suspect,” Ebizo explained upon seeing this.
Don't be so nervous.
Don't feel like this is directed at you.
It's just a normal inquiry; you should know that this is a necessary procedure.
"What suspicion do I have? Just because I had a conflict with him?" Ye Cang wouldn't tolerate it, raising her voice directly. She couldn't accept such an accusation.
There are indeed contradictions, but there's not much to say about that.
But to say that I am involved in this matter is an unfounded accusation.
"Ye Cang, regarding the matter of the previous Kazekage, we held a small meeting. An elder suggested that a new Kazekage be elected, and you were listed as one of the candidates."
Chiyo didn't think much of Yekura's anger. Besides, whether you're angry or not, the suspicion is there, and it can't be explained in just a few words.
Although Chiyo and her brother had conflicts with Rasa—after all, that guy had insulted and belittled them—Chiyo wouldn't do anything about it.
The interests of Sunagakure are paramount.
Chiyo wouldn't go so far as to attack the Kazekage over a personal grudge, but just because she and her brother wouldn't doesn't mean others wouldn't. And the conflict between Pakura and Rasa has already become...
It's not something everyone knows, but almost everyone is aware of it, so in this situation, it's essential to figure it out.
"I've become a candidate for Kazekage?" Yekura seemed surprised by this, but she was not calm inside. Could this so-called elder be from Konoha?
She couldn't help but have such doubts, after all, she didn't have any connections in the Elders' Council, so it was hard to believe that someone would recommend her without any problems...
Haha, anyway, she doesn't believe it, so there must be a problem behind this, but what exactly is the problem?
It's hard to say.
Ebizo asked, "Yes, what do you think?"
Ye Cang shrugged and said, "What can I say? Advisors, this is not a decision I can make, and I respect the village's decision."
what can I say?
Ultimately, the village has the final say.
I absolutely support any decision the village makes.
She'd say it, of course she'd. Ye Cang isn't stupid; anyone can say nice things. Who can't do that? Right?
So no matter how Chiyo tries to probe, she's unlikely to give herself away. As for suspicion?
So what if there are doubts? I'll carry out the task myself; that's the legal procedure.
She submitted a mission application and was granted permission to leave the village.....
Moreover, the eastern border they went to was the land of rivers.
You're telling me I should go and kill Luo Sha?
Haha, I have no idea where he went.
I left the village first, and I've been gone for more than two days. How would I know where Luo Sha is going? Don't slander others so easily.
I have absolutely no connection to this incident.
If you're going to slander me, you need to get evidence.
There's not even any evidence...
Even if you can't file an accusation, you still need evidence to make a slanderous accusation. Otherwise, it's obvious to everyone that it's slander, so what's the point? Right? My two advisors, you need to figure things out before you accuse and question me.
After Yekura's explanation, Chiyo was at a loss for words, but her doubts did not disappear. Instead, more and more questions arose, so she had to keep asking.
"Ye Cang, don't worry, as I just said, it's just a routine inquiry."
"Your mission this time is relatively simple. Do you need to take charge?"
Chiyo continued to ask Yokura about the mission.
Because this task is indeed very simple.
So why go and pick it up?
Ye Cang said coldly, "If we don't do missions, what are we supposed to do? Ninjas are meant to do missions. Whether they're easy or not isn't important; what matters is the reward, right?"
Since you insist on asking, right?
As you all wished, since I was going to expose it anyway, I'll expose it now.
"Also, two advisors, since you asked this in 3.5, I, Ye, need to explain some things. I was ambushed on the eastern border by Yero, a team of thirteen ninjas. Why do you think that is?"
You're asking, right?
Okay, I'll tell you.
If you insist on asking, how can I not tell you?
Don't worry, I've explained it to you very clearly. Let's see how you handle it.
"Yero?"
Chiyo frowned, puzzled.
"Sister, she's a ninja from the Anbu," Ebizo whispered.
ANBU?
Commander of the secret service...
Luo Sha, given his style, is capable of doing it.
Chiyo is in a bad mood right now. The Kazekage's sending of the Anbu to assassinate a Jonin from the village is a huge scandal, and judging from Yekura's expression, it seems like it really couldn't be more true.
After all, the conflict between these two is truly irreconcilable, and given Luo Sha's cunning and consistent behavior, he is probably capable of doing such a thing.
