Chapter 319 Dreams are possible, but reality is cruel
Before Hatake Sakumo spoke, Jingyi continued:
"This dress is nice, very elegant."
Hatake Sakumo: "........."
Not bad, I already regretted wearing it, and no matter how good the temperament of the Hokage half-sleeves is, can it be more handsome than your Hokage battle robe?
"I want to talk to you about something. I'm quite idle recently and have nothing to do."
Since Hatake Sakumo put on the Hokage half-sleeves, he has been put on ice by the village.
There is no share for various important tasks, and it is even more impossible to send him to the war.
The Third Hokage and others have not summoned him for a long time.
Hatake Sakumo, who has nothing to do, can only stay at home and practice hard. During this period, he also married a wife and tried to make a baby.
"Then find a place to talk slowly and eat something by the way."
After spending a few hours in the Hokage's office, Jingyi was really a little hungry.
The two hit it off and found a tavern that was not closed yet.
After ordering two side dishes, Hatake Sakumo, who looked worried, drank several glasses of wine in a row.
Tsk!
Looking at Hatake Sakumo, whose face turned red after a few glasses of wine, Jingyi could only sigh and express his admiration.
He is not good at drinking, but he still drinks like this, and he is not afraid of making himself confused.
Speaking of drinking, Jingyi thought of Jiraiya, who was really desperate to carry out the mission.
Years ago, he took Naoki and Xiao Huangmao out, and after returning from the mission after a long time, he didn't even have time to rest and set off again immediately.
I really don't know if it was the Third Hokage who forced him, or he forced himself.
Maybe Jiraiya felt embarrassed because he had been away from the village for too long, so he wanted to use this method to make up for his guilt.
He didn't care, but Naoki and Xiao Huangmao followed him, so they suffered.
"Bang!!!"
Putting down the wine glass heavily, Hatake Sakumo, whose breath smelled of alcohol, smiled bitterly: "Jingyi, do you think I was wrong? I began to regret wearing this dress. I can feel that many people are starting to stay away from me. The Hokage is even unwilling to summon me or use me."
"Is it just because of a piece of clothing?"
Hatake Sakumo's heart was full of bitterness. He has made a lot of contributions to the village. I dare not say that he can compare with Jingyi, at least ordinary people can't compare with him.
But after putting on a Hokage half-sleeve, everything changed.
"Senior, the clothes are not the point, the point is your attitude."
Hatake Sakumo was probably depressed for a while, otherwise he would not have complained to him at this time.
"Attitude? What attitude? Isn't the dress a reward from the government? Should I refuse it?"
No wonder you were forced to death by the old man Shimura Danzo with public opinion. You really don't use your brain at all.
In addition to training and improving strength, your other abilities are blank, Hatake Sakumo?
Jingyi didn't know what to say.
"Rewards are rewards, but don't forget that we are Konoha people. No matter how good the things given by the Nakagami Mansion are, they can't change our identity."
After taking a sip of wine slowly, Jingyi frowned for a moment. This thing is really hard to drink.
If he could choose, he would rather have a glass of happy water.
"What do you mean?"
Hatake Sakumo didn't understand.
Jingyi had to make it clear:
"Nakagami has always wanted to use various means to strengthen his influence in the village. In fact, doing so has violated the order of getting along between the Nakagami Mansion and the village.
No matter who it is, they don't want Nakagami to sit on their heads and make decisions."
"Secondly, you want to be Hokage. This is the bottom line of the person in the Hokage Office. You stepped on the senior."
"........."
I stepped on the mine of the Hokage man?
I'm afraid that the matter of the Nakagami Mansion is nothing. The real scary thing is stepping on the mine.
Hatake Sakumo's mind seemed to be struck by thunder, and he stood there in a daze.
"But, but............"
Hatake Sakumo's forehead was covered with sweat, and he was anxious and a little incoherent:
"But isn't being a Hokage the dream of many young ninjas? Just because of a piece of clothing, you deny my dream?"
Poor unlucky guy.
Jingyi thought that Hatake Sakumo's dream of becoming a Hokage should be shattered first.
"Senior, dreams are dreams, and reality is reality. Haven't you heard of it?
Dreams are full, but reality is skinny. It's good to have dreams, but the person in the Hokage office must be willing to give in."
Pulling the Hokage robe on his body, Jingyi said:
"You can't wait to put on the Hokage half-sleeves, but I put on the Hokage robe, but the results are different. What is the root cause?"
"........"
The root cause?
Hatake Sakumo racked his brains to think.
What is the root cause?
"Is it because of your hard work that you are stronger?"
"Puff~~~~"
Stop, stop talking, I want to beat you to death because of what you said.
The sake in Jingyi's mouth sprayed out directly, and the slightly numb Hatake Sakumo didn't dodge and was sprayed in the face.
But he didn't care about these at this time.
Wiping the wine from the corner of his mouth, Jingyi laughed angrily, and could only slap the table and said to Hatake Sakumo:
"The fundamental reason is that our Hokage knows that I am not interested in his position, and he doesn't need to guard against me at all, and Tsunade is there."
"Let's not talk about Tsunade becoming a candidate for Hokage. Even if the candidate for Hokage is not confirmed, anyone who wants to become Hokage cannot avoid Tsunade."
"Not to mention you, even Orochimaru and Jiraiya are the same."
"So senior, wake up, don't mention dreams anymore, it's unrealistic."
"On the contrary, it will bring trouble to you, your family, and even your children."
Hatake Sakumo, who was originally a little emotional, completely calmed down, and didn't drink the wine. He just sat in the chair blankly, and the pupils of his eyes seemed to be empty.
Will he not be attacked?
It shouldn't be that serious. It can't be compared with the public opinion attack of Shimura Danzo.
The dishes were served.
Jingyi ate quietly, and Hatake Sakumo was still the same.
Until Jingyi finished eating, he was still distracted.
Maybe the broken dream since childhood had a little impact on him.
Fortunately, it was not affected, which was better than being targeted by the top leaders.
For other things, the Third Hokage and others may let you go, but if you want to be the Hokage, then I'm sorry, I will target you.
After eating and drinking, Jingyi stood up and patted Hatake Sakumo's shoulder, put the money on the table and left.
As for how long it will take Hatake Sakumo to face himself and recover, it depends on him.
Such a stubborn person can't be persuaded at all.
You can only think about it yourself.
Hatake Sakumo is like this, and so is his future son Hatake Kakashi.
In order to make Hatake Kakashi face himself, the Third Hokage has spent a lot of effort.
Although he did it with a purpose, it can at least be regarded as a work.
It's ridiculous to say that Konoha, which is full of talents, has fallen to the point of needing a ninja like Kakashi to be a face. It has to be said that this is the sadness of Konoha and the incompetence of the Third Hokage.
