"Hiruzen, why do you always side with him?" Koharu's frustration grew, not just with Orochimaru but with the Third Hokage too. Tsunade constantly butted heads with her, and now even Orochimaru was showing signs of defiance. Koharu's face turned pale with anger.
Revolting-every single one of them!
"Orochimaru still has his own tasks to attend to." Hiruzen chose not to engage with that topic and quickly changed the subject. "Homura, who do you think the village should send to negotiate with Hanzo?"
Take it easy, Hiruzen thought. Getting angry won't solve anything.
With a calming glance toward Koharu, Homura Mitokado habitually adjusted his glasses and replied, "Hiruzen, do you think it might be wise to send Xin Usagi?
After all, he was the one who accompanied Tsunade during the last negotiations, and it was thanks to him that Hanzo was forced to back down. I believe he's the most suitable candidate, considering Hanzo fears his strength."
"Xin?"
The Third Hokage had just dismissed Orochimaru's involvement, but now Homura was suggesting sending Xin.
Thinking about it carefully, it did make sense. Xin really was the best person for the job. Last time, even Tsunade's presence wasn't enough, but Hanzo had been cowed by Xin's power, which made the negotiations easier. Given that this matter also involved Hanzo, sending Xin seemed like the perfect solution.
"I think Xin Usagi would represent Konoha well in negotiations with Hanzo," Danzo suddenly spoke up in agreement.
"I agree!" Koharu, not wanting to be left behind, also voiced her approval.
Whether it was about cooling down his public profile or not promoting him too much, those were matters to deal with later. For now, the most important thing was to handle Hanzo. Konoha couldn't allow him to attack the Land of Iron unchecked.
"Then inform Xin Usagi," the Third Hokage concluded, agreeing with the others.
Meanwhile, Xin's team was in the middle of helping some villagers cut grass. Compared to digging and playing in the mud or collecting trash, this task felt much easier.
Leaning against a tree, watching his three team members work hard in the distance, Xin considered taking on more of these types of tasks in the future. As long as it didn't involve getting filthy or doing something he wasn't good at, this wasn't so bad.
Uchiha Ryoji and Hyuga Suzune were working with impressive speed. Their efficiency even startled Aida Sui.
When they were digging and picking up trash, they hadn't worked nearly this hard. But now, it was like they were competing, as if cutting fewer stalks of grass would somehow disgrace their respective clans.
In broad daylight? What's gotten into them?
Noticing someone quickly approaching, Xin turned his head and saw a familiar face-it was one of the Anbu members he had intimidated before.
"Xin-sama, the Hokage has summoned you to the Hokage's office immediately."
"Got it."
With a casual wave, Xin slowly jumped down from the tree and walked over to his team, who were still hard at work.
