NOVEL NEXT Chapter 14: Regret, group fire!
Bang!
The desk in the Hokage's office suffered another disaster.
Shimura Danzo slapped a document on the table, unceremoniously pulled out a chair and sat in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Hiruzhan, that Uchiha source can't stay!"
"Danzo, don't say anything that is not conducive to unity!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen tilted his head, pulled out a battle report from Danzo's hand, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Konoha is a big collective, and all Konoha ninjas are partners in the village and our brothers and sisters!
Today, the two of us are chatting in private. You just complain and complain. If you let me hear it again, you will definitely be punished! "
"I made a mistake!"
Danzo nodded aggrievedly, and motioned the third generation to read the second half of the battle report directly, then reorganized his language and said:
"I'm here to report the battle situation! Hiruzen, I..."
“Calling yourself on the job when you’re at work!”
???
Shimura Danzo's eyes widened, and he knew that this was Sarutobi Hiruzen's slap on his slip of voice just now.
"Yes!"
Danzo clenched his fists, looked at the Hokage hat on the third generation's head with grief and anger, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Hokage-sama!!!"
Hiruzen, is there already a tragically thick barrier between us?
The jealousy and unwillingness in Danzo's heart became stronger and stronger. He had no choice but to follow the words of the third generation and change to a more business-like rhetoric:
"After the thousands of reinforcements arrived on the eastern battlefield, the effect was remarkable. We entered a strategic stalemate with the opponent despite the numerical disadvantage, and our battle loss ratio was significantly better than Kirigakure."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded without surprise and continued to read the battle report.
Uchiha is crazy, and his level is still very high. Otherwise, he would not be able to bear the title of the most powerful family in the ninja world. As expected, the effect is immediate.
"Especially the Uchiha Minamoto jounin. His abilities are quite outstanding and he has achieved a lot on the battlefield. Kirigakure even gave him the title of 'Fire Demon' because he praised his strange and powerful fire escape technique!"
Danzo's voice was straight and straight, without a trace of emotional ups and downs.
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't stop laughing. He quickly flipped through the information and found the page recording Uchiha Gen's achievements.
In half a month, Uchiha Gen killed more than a hundred Kiri ninjas, including 17 jonins and above, the highest among all the jonins on the Eastern Front!
So domineering!
Shimura Danzo added at the right time: "Genjounin is only sixteen years old, and there are probably not many ninjas in the village who can beat him!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's face looked ugly to the naked eye.
This achievement is nothing, the key is that the person who did all this is only sixteen years old.
"Source, you are young and promising. This is Uchiha's blessing and Konoha's blessing!"
What Sarutobi Hiruzen said was so tasteless that everyone could hear the unintentional meaning behind it.
Shimura Danzo felt secretly happy, but he still remembered the purpose of his visit:
“A very important piece of information was discovered at the root!
The ninjas of Sunagakure Village stationed in the Country of Whirlpool have been moving recently, and they seem to be in contact with the Mist Ninjas. If Sunagakure betrays his alliance and lets Kirigakure land from the Country of Uzumaki and head west, Konoha will be in danger! "
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and seriously considered this possibility.
The middle of the Third Ninja War.
Sunagakure gambled on the fate of the country and launched the "Battle of Mount Kikyo", the largest and most brutal of the three wars, against Konoha. Blood was spilled on almost every inch of the soil on Mount Kikyo.
In the end, Konoha suffered a tragic victory under the leadership of Orochimaru, forcing Sunagakure to re-sign the alliance treaty.
As a condition of the alliance, Sunagakure had to send a partial force of 800 people across more than half of the continent to guard Konoha's gateway to the Country of Uzumaki to resist Kirigakure, so as to form a powerful force...
After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows gradually relaxed, "Rasa is not such an unintelligent person."
"Sunagakure is cunning, you have to guard against him!"
Shimura Danzo seemed to really care about Konoha at this moment, and said very responsibly:
“I’m going to send Aburame Ryoma to monitor the Sunagakure base and their coach Hagura.
But Ryoma has enough intelligence but not enough force, so I think we need to send another person with strong force to go with him. I think Uchiha Minamoto is pretty good! "
Sarutobi Hiruzen held his forehead with one hand and looked at Danzo's sincere eyes that said, "I am all for the village." He felt a little troubled.
Master Tuan is a master at pretending to be confused!
You've gone around in such a big circle, but what you want to do in the end is still that dirty thing?
Scumbag!
But Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew that the connection between Sunagakure and Kirigakure might be true.
And even if there is nothing between them, Shimura Danzo, the troublemaker, will mix them together.
Kakashi is fourteen, Asuma is fifteen, and Uchiha Gen is sixteen. The three of them are basically the same age group and will reach the peak of ninjas in about fourteen or five years...
I was also seventy by then...
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart trembled again.
His expression kept changing, he thought for a long time, and said coldly:
“Since there is something fishy between Sunagakure and Kirigakure, we have to investigate.
But I won’t bother you at all. I will call the Eastern Front Commander Hyuga Hizashi and ask him to order Uchiha Gen to go to the Country of Whirlpool to investigate. "
In the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose the 'middle' path and assigned the task to Uchiha Gen. He did not place Ryoma's 'thunder' beside him.
In this way, no matter what happens, he, the Hokage, will always be uninformed and deceived as the 'Holy Emperor'. The bad things are all done by Danzo, the sycophant, who deceives his superiors and conceals them from his subordinates.
Danzo was already very familiar with the process of 'the Hokage takes the advantage and takes the blame', and he also guessed that Sarutobi Hiruzen would most likely handle the matter this way.
This was just as he wished.
However, the 'process' still needs to be completed normally.
"Hiruzen, have you forgotten Tobirama-sensei's teachings?"
Danzo slammed the table and stood up angrily.
"That's enough! Danzo!" Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously opposed Danzo and yelled:
"I told you, you have to do your job in the Hokage's office!
Recognize your identity, you are just the Hokage's assistant! "
Sarutobi Hiruzen slumped down on the chair, took a deep breath from his pipe, looked at his old friend and said quietly:
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
Danzo has heard this sentence countless times, but every time he hears it again, he still gets critical damage.
He was so angry that the corner of his mouth twitched. He wanted to continue to refute but was afraid that the third generation would continue to stab him in the heart with his 'job'. In the end, he could only stand up and roughly open the door of the Hokage's office.
Now, he's outside the Hokage's office!
"Hiruzen, you will regret this!"
"Bang!" After the slamming of the door, Danzo quickly left the Hokage Building and disappeared into the shadow cast by the Shadow Rock with an angry look on his face.
"Terai!"
After returning to the root's dark underground base, Danzo summoned an elite from the root and asked:
"Is Kirigakure's line running normally?"
"Normal!" The masked Root member's voice was as hard and ruthless as a machine.
"Okay, enable it!"
The Ninja Pot King who returned to the base was completely dissolved in the shadows, with one eye looking far away to the east:
"Tell the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost that I want to eat fish!"
