I create the legend of Terra in Naruto

Chapter 30 The role of roots



Early morning, Konoha Village.

At this moment, the earth is still dark, and there is still some time before the sun rises.

But the Hokage Building suddenly lit up just now. This was all caused by a letter from the front line that was delivered overnight.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat in the Hokage's seat, and with a somewhat solemn look, handed the letter in his hand to Mito Kadoro and Koharu who had just arrived, letting them read it.

After the two read the letter, their sleepiness completely disappeared, and the office fell into a brief silence.

"In other words, after the Uchiha returned with a great victory, the people in the root were caught stealing the corpses of the Uchiha clan at this time?"

After turning to bed, Koharu took a deep breath, looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him, and asked in an extremely solemn tone.

She directly confirmed that it was the root person, not the ANBU, because she knew Danzo too well.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, nodded slightly and said, "Yes, judging from the content of Shikaku's report, this is indeed the case, and the confrontation scene at that time was probably far worse than what was stated in the letter!"

"Why did it happen at this time, and why was he caught in full force?"

Minato Ento kept shaking his head, looking embarrassed.

"The problem now is that the ANBU's theft of corpses has too great an impact. Even if Shikaku has shifted the responsibility to the traitor, I'm afraid not many people will believe it, especially several blood successor families..."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, he took out his old smoker and took a puff, trying to calm his mind.

Mito Kadoyan's eyes narrowed and he continued: "It's okay to calm down slowly here in the village, but the key is what to do now on the battlefield?"

From the letter, he already knew Uchiha Li's last words.

What does it mean that even if the village doesn't give an explanation, the Uchiha will continue to fight for their companions?

This is not what it means literally. If the village really doesn't give an explanation, then the problem will be serious.

Once this is done, the village will completely lose its justice, and I am afraid that the village will be alienated from everyone!

"I have sent some additional personnel to the frontline battlefields, but this does not solve the fundamental problem."

Sarutobi Hiruzen replied, looking out the window of the office as he spoke.

Mito Katoen and Kaden Koharu naturally understood why Sarutobi Hiruzen said that, and they also knew where he was looking.

The direction Sarutobi Hiruzen was looking at at the moment was probably Uchiha's new clan land. He was looking at Uchiha Fugaku inside and the kaleidoscope on Fugaku's body.

After turning to bed, Koharu thought for a while and said, "This matter cannot be delayed. What is your plan, Hiruzen?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped his hand on the desk, and after a while he said his plan: "I am going to compensate a condolence money to express my apology, which can be regarded as an explanation to Uchiha."

"It's not a problem if you can solve this with money." Mito Kadoyan frowned and said with some uncertainty, "But if it's just like this, I'm afraid the Uchiha side won't accept it."

After turning to bed, Koharu continued: "Yes, especially the brat Uchiha Li. He is not easy to deal with. He can put the whole village on fire with just one word."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened, and he expressed his true thoughts: "So I am also planning to remove the roots in the name of integrating the ANBU. I believe that with this move, Uchiha and other families will understand what it means."

After a slight pause, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued: "At the same time, as the first person responsible, Danzo will personally go to the front line to apologize to Uchiha and everyone."

"This is a good idea, but I'm afraid Danzo won't agree..."

Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who had gone to bed, looked at each other and swallowed subconsciously.

The root was originally established to handle some things that were inconvenient for the ANBU to handle. However, as time went by, the root became too independent of the ANBU and became Danzo's one-spoken organization.

Genbu has always acted without scruples, and from time to time he forcibly admitted members of small families, which has long aroused dissatisfaction from all parties.

If the Roots were disbanded, it would indeed play a role in appeasing the remaining families in the village.

In this way, even if Uchiha still has opinions on the matter of stealing corpses, he is already alone.

Both of them knew very well that Sarutobi Hiruzen probably had this meaning in establishing the Roots back then.

When necessary, the root will be the best scapegoat!

But they didn't expect that this time Sarutobi Hiruzen would ask Danzo to apologize...

"Impossible, I don't agree with this kind of thing, and it is absolutely impossible for me to apologize to Uchiha!"

At this time, a cold voice came from outside the Hokage's office.

I saw Danzo walking in in a hurry, not even bothering to lean on the crutch in his hand.

Seeing Danzo's angry look, Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "If it weren't for your people to mess around, how could this situation be like this now?"

"Why did I tell the people to mess around? There is obviously a traitor in the ANBU!"

Danzang's face was not red, his heart was not beating, he just opened his eyes and talked nonsense, acting like a rogue.

It was absolutely impossible for him to admit such a thing. He thought that everything he did was for Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said calmly: "You know in your heart whether your people did it or not. It's not what I have to do now, but the Uchiha side needs to be accounted for, and the village also needs to be accounted for!"

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Mito Kaden and Koharu Koharu, motioning for them to speak.

Mito Kadoyan sighed. He understood what Sarutobi Hiruzen meant by asking him to come, so he said to Danzo:

"Duanzo, this matter is indeed your fault. In this way, you will not lose anything by disbanding the roots first and then apologizing."

The same thing happened to Xiaochun when he moved to bed, and he persuaded:

"Yes, in the current situation, it is the best choice for you to apologize and show your attitude. Hiruzen is doing this for your sake."

Looking at the attitudes of the two advisors and Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo's expression was gloomy.

He knew very well that he probably had no other choice this time, otherwise Sarutobi Hiruzen wouldn't have called the two of them to 'persuad' him.

Thinking of this, Danzo held his crutch tightly and said coldly: "Hiruzhan, you will regret it!"

Under the tremendous pressure, the crutches broke into pieces. Danzo turned and walked out of the office, looking a little lonely.

He knew from the beginning that his roots would sooner or later become a scapegoat.

Even if it is not disbanded this time, it is very likely that it will be forced to disband in the future after other things happen.

So he had already made preparations. Even if the roots were disbanded, it would only be disbanded on the surface. The real roots would still be running underground.

But he didn't expect that this time Sarutobi Hiruzen would ask him to apologize to Uchiha, and he would do so resolutely.

When he thought of this, the anger and murderous intent on Danzo's face could not be contained.

Here, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo leaving lonely, and subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to say something.

But in the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen gave up persuading.

In this case, if he didn't do this, even he wouldn't be able to save Danzo.

Stealing the corpses of fellow villagers and seizing blood successors, there is no way to deal with this kind of thing coldly. He actually did this for Danzo's benefit...

"In this way, the matter is almost settled, but what to do on the battlefield? It is still not safe for Uchiha to leave there."

Koharu and Mito Kadoyan moved to bed, and they asked almost at the same time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and said quietly: "In this regard, I do have a suitable candidate. If you let him go, he should be very suitable."

Seeing how confident Sarutobi Hiruzen was, the two nodded slightly, and then said no more.

The lights in the Hokage's office dispersed, and the secret contest came to an end for the time being.
