Hatake Satoru sank most of his body into the chair, propping his arm on the side and his hand against his cheek.
He seemed to be thinking about something seriously.
"I didn't expect you to know your duties."
"Suggestions are just suggestions. You are not qualified to reject his decisions. You should know that very well."
Hatake Satoru replied unhurriedly.
These sarcastic words made the high-level people look a bit embarrassed.
Hatake Satoru seemed to know a lot about the duties of the higher-ups, and he could easily see that they had big problems.
"Personal matters, that's a good excuse."
"Originally, if you really had some irreconcilable conflict with Kirigakure, I wouldn't be interested in getting involved because of problems between villages."
"But, not for the sake of the village, Hozuki Mangetsu is my cute and important student."
"It makes me unhappy to see him being made difficult."
Hatake Satoru always seemed to be in a state of ease.
The higher-ups opened their mouths, seemingly wanting to say something.
After all, to deal with what Hatake Satoru might create, they had almost prepared their words.
So-called, everything we do is for the safety of the village.
Under the big environment of the village, all people and things are secondary.
Only the village is the biggest and most important. We suspect Kirigakure, we suspect that the former Mizukage Hozuki Mangetsu has problems.
Not that Hozuki Mangetsu, this individual, has any problems.
Of course, this is a kind of sophistry, but as long as it can suppress Hatake Satoru, whether it's sophistry or not, it's not that important.
"We are considering the village, the person you know is Hozuki Mangetsu."
"But we need to consider what the former Mizukage intends to do here for so long, whether there are any other purposes."
Their meaning was obviously that Hatake Satoru was just one person, who didn't need to consider too many problems, so he would stand on Hozuki Mangetsu's side.
But they had to consider the safety of the village, unlike Hatake Satoru, who couldn't distinguish between the big picture and the small.
Hatake Satoru sighed softly and took his long legs off the table.
Although the somewhat imposing aura did not diminish, it was obvious that he was about to relax.
The higher-ups couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Judging from his movements, Hatake Satoru was probably preparing to give up arguing with them.
Good, just keep this momentum.
There doesn't need to be any forced solution, just make sure Hatake Satoru doesn't pursue the issue of Hozuki Mangetsu anymore.
"Stop talking so grandly, who cares about your village, village stuff."
Hatake Satoru lowered his head slightly, then opened his mouth impatiently.
He wasn't a responsible person at all. If it weren't for the fact that his students were already trained.
At the same time, as a person, his humanity was constantly improving.
Otherwise, he alone could stir up the Five Great Nations, directly starting a war and letting them fight to destruction.
In the end, he was neither a pacifist nor did he care about these villages.
The so-called people of the world, that's just how it is.
The discrimination and targeting suffered by Gaara and Naruto, and even Killer Bee, didn't it come precisely from the villagers they had to protect?
A village is a whole made up of everyone, with good people and bad people, important people and strangers.
Hatake Satoru was not someone who would love others for no reason.
He purely cared about the people he was connected to.
To be honest, he was already tired of listening. As long as he listened to what these higher-ups were saying now, he could basically imagine what these people would say later.
For the safety of the village, because Gaara as Kazekage still has many clumsy places, and so on.
Anyway, as long as they want, they can say anything.
Gaara has not fully obtained power, so he will always be in a passive state.
The higher-ups didn't seem to expect Hatake Satoru to talk so recklessly, and for a while they couldn't think of any suitable answer, and looked at each other awkwardly.
"Why is the Fifth Mizukage my student, why does he dare to come here regardless, and even why do I understand what the higher-ups should really do?"
"Don't you think about the reasons for these things?"
"Yeah~ After all, you who dare to attack the former Mizukage, you are just like amoebas and don't have that kind of thinking ability, right?"
Hatake Satoru tilted his head impatiently. He stretched out his index finger and turned it up and down on his head mockingly.
The higher-ups fell silent all of a sudden. They really hadn't considered the reason why Hozuki Mangetsu was Hatake Satoru's student.
After all, Hatake Satoru's strength was there. It wouldn't be strange if Kirigakure discovered Hatake Satoru's abilities at the time and directly cultivated Hozuki Mangetsu.
On the one hand, Kirigakure's previous secrecy system was indeed good, and they had no place to find the answer.
On the other hand, these things all happened a few years ago. Although Hatake Satoru was Hozuki Mangetsu's teacher, he didn't say anything about it in a high-profile way.
Naturally, they wouldn't bother to explore it usually.
Hatake Satoru is almost a person who values strength above all else. His unfathomable ability is enough to make people wary. The little things around him become less important.
"—"
With a crisp "crack," Gaara pulled open the office door, holding two paper bags in his hand.
The atmosphere in the entire office was so quiet that it was almost dead. Gaara was shocked by the silence, and turned back to look at the door awkwardly.
Before he came in, he had seen Hatake Satoru talking through the glass on the door. Why didn't he hear any sound after he came in, and the expressions of these higher-ups still looked like they were frightened.
"Are you...are you okay?"
Gaara was also a little confused by the situation in front of him, and asked Hatake Satoru and the higher-ups hesitantly.
"It doesn't look like anyone has anything to do here~!"
"What did you buy? Let me see."
Hatake Satoru changed his serious atmosphere and gloomy face in an instant, almost instantly pulling himself out of the chair, and even through his sunglasses he could feel his eyes shining brightly.
