The trio's goal was simple - if they couldn't reach an alliance agreement with Ame, they could at least ensure neutrality and prevent enemy troops from passing through. Considering how the Rain Country suffered from both sides in the last war, I doubt the Sannins will be able to achieve much success despite their rather broad powers.
Rather, the rainmakers will destroy anyone who tries to pass through their territory and knowing the approximate capabilities of Akatsuki's main trio, they may well succeed, even if the hostile forces are led by a pair of S-rank.
Naturally, Sakumo hadn't forgotten about all the agreements with the clans, so at the fourth hour of the night, when the important guests were sent to rest with all due honor, it was time to discuss the internal affairs of Konoha and various reshuffles in the leadership.
The elders were removed from their posts, and the positions were abolished, the new Anbu commander became a deputy, Jiraiya was replaced by an Uchiha I didn't know, who also served in the main branch of the organization - the demonstration of full-fledged S-rank and the overall power of the clan allowed to grab this fat piece from others who wanted it - finally depriving Hiruzen of all levers of power.
The official placed in charge of the main hospital had resigned and Senju Tsunade had taken his place, receiving very solid budget funding and approval to forcefully train current and new iryonins.
Toka-san tried to raise the question of bringing the Shinobi Academy back under the Founders' auspices, but despite the full support of Uzumaki Mito, the idea was overwhelmingly defeated, with even Uncle and his allies voting against it, despite their good relations with a couple of kunoichi, which baffled me but didn't surprise me at all.
Senju had too much influence as it was. In fact, as expected, the coalition broke up almost immediately after Hiruzen's removal was achieved, and each clan began to pull their own weight, trying to prevent their rivals from strengthening, even if it would benefit Konoha.
The Alliance also got their bone to pick, aside from the expected appointment of Shenesu-ji as commander of the northeastern front - one of the Nara veterans became deputy commander of Anbu, and the Hyuga were given an equal position in Anbu Ne.
That didn't please the Todoroki Uchiha, but that was the goal - to counterbalance the influence of the Founder Clan, which was beginning to gain influence, only other dojutsu wielders could do so, even if they outnumbered and outgunned the latter, and the alliance with Nara equalized the number of elite fighters.
By the way, now that Konoha could field as many as ten such ninja, if you counted both Uzumaki, setting an absolute record since its founding, the clans without S-ranks were in a rather disadvantageous position, despite getting a piece of the pie and it was perfectly visible from their heads.
The Aburame have always traditionally leaned towards Sarutobi, but now it's become especially noticeable, and the Meido have gotten closer to Hatake over the last couple years.
Thanks to her good relationship with me, Tsume-chan had been able to get some good preferential treatment for her clan earlier, not to mention serious discounts at the shop and first-degree iryonin services, but judging by the stares furtively cast in my direction, there was a serious conversation looming ahead and perhaps the Nara would gain another ally.
In fact, the only ones left looking for someone to lean on were the Kurama, whose leader was too proud and stubborn to be alone. I bet the redistribution of influence would last for years to come, especially given the imminent losses in the war, which could turn the whole picture upside down, along with the projected increase in the influence of the Clanless ninja, but that was a matter for the future, but for now, Sarutobi and their allies were losing their privileged position, becoming on equal footing with the rest and there was nothing they could do about it.
