Anger and Frustration

Masaki Fukuda took the book in confusion and flipped through it.

In an instant, he understood that this scroll was filled with political achievements.

These were all good things.

Not long after the new name was inherited, the officials would definitely make some arrangements. With his own political achievements, he might be able to obtain a political position.

Masaki Fukuda's eyes suddenly lit up. He quickly took all these things into his arms, and immediately said with a smile,

"Kid, you do things flawlessly. I am looking forward to working with you in the future."

"Just two years later, I am going to buy a house for my son in Konoha."

"When the time comes, I will need your help, Tunan."

Uchiha Tunan bowed. The moment he lowered his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Masaki Fukuda. I am the most grateful to you."

"By the way, please help take care of the orphans that were taken in by the North City Guard Manor after I leave."

"I will come back to pick them up after I have settled my matters."

Having received such a big favor from Uchiha Tunan, he naturally would not refuse such a small request.

He immediately patted his chest and said,

"Sure, sure. I like children very much."

Uchiha Tunan smiled and leaned forward. He picked up the teapot and poured tea into the teacup of Fukuda Masaki. He said,

"Thank you so much. I will take my leave first."

"Master Masaki Fukuda, I wish you good luck. We will meet again in the future."

Masaki Fukuda immediately stood up and placed his hand on Uchiha Tunan's shoulder. With a smile on his face, he said,

"I will send you off."

After seeing Uchiha Tunan off, Masaki Fukuda returned to the study and happily put away the scroll. He was indescribably happy in his heart.

Then, he drank a mouthful of tea and said with a relaxed expression, "If only the people below were like Tunan."

The six scrolls that he had given Masaki Fukuda at the start were each filled with five million taels of banknotes, adding up to thirty million taels of silver.

Masaki Fukuda also understood that this money was a hush money.

The second scroll was the corpse of the attendant in the North City Guard Mansion.

And what was recorded in that book was the crime committed by these servants.

From the moment Masaki Fukuda accepted the gift, it meant that Uchiha Tunan was completely clean.

As for Shinnosuke's matter, Abe Akira and His Highness were the targets.

Hiruzen Sarutobi should not be able to find him.

En...

Two shields were not enough insurance. Coincidentally, His Highness had two anbu Ninjas by his side that day.

When he got back, he would think of a way to pull Danzo over to block.

Out of the three targets, one had vanished into thin air, one had a special status, and the other was an old partner who had been with Hiruzen Sarutobi for many years.

Uchiha Tunan wanted to see what Hiruzen Sarutobi would do.

In short, the trip to Fire Capital was quite smooth.

Six hundred million was a huge amount of wealth. Just completing missions would take a long time.

One had to know that the reward for an S -rank mission was one million. Generally speaking, there were very few missions that were worth ten million.

Even if an S -rank mission was worth five million taels, it would still require one hundred and twenty continuous missions.

Let alone the completion time required for an S -rank mission.

During peacetime, the number of S -level tasks in the entire Ninja Realm for a year was not that much.

Wealth came quickly after plundering the civilians. No wonder there were so many traitors in the Ninja Realm.

A large part of them probably thought that the money was too little.

This time, he even killed Shinnosuke and Asuma. Hiruzen Sarutobi had no successor, so he could take advantage of this opportunity to enter.

Moreover, he learned from Asuma that Hiruzen Sarutobi admired Orochimaru.

Well, it seemed that it was useless to treat Hiruzen Sarutobi with the will of fire. He had to let him see that he could inherit his mantle.

The only thing he was not satisfied with on this trip was Fukuda Masaki.

Uchiha Tunan did not expect that Masaki Fukuda and his family had the intention to move to Konoha.

If that's the case, then I can only be sorry.

If the two of them had nothing to do with each other in the future, it would be fine.

But if there was anything, Uchiha Tunan would not be able to help.

This old fox might use these things to pinch him.

The best way was to get rid of the trouble ahead of time.

One day later, in the Hokage's office.

"Bang!"

After reading the information, Hiruzen Sarutobi slammed his fist on the desk, smashing it into pieces.

The member of the Anbu who handed in the information immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Hokage sama, please calm down."

Hiruzen Sarutobi tried to calm down his anger and then stared at the members of the Anbu.

"Call Homura and Koharu. Danzo, come here."

"Yes."

After the Anbu left, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face instantly became ferocious. He crumpled up the information in his hand and threw it to the ground. He looked like he was waiting for someone to bite him. He growled,

"Shinnosuke... Asuma..."

Soon, two Hokage consultants and Danzo came to the office.

As soon as he entered, he saw that Hiruzen Sarutobi was no longer as calm and steady as before. Instead, he had a crazy look on his face.

"Hiruzen, what happened?" Danzo asked.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood there with his head lowered, his chest floating up and down, not saying a word.

Trembling, he pointed at the crumpled up information on the ground. Clearly, he was very angry.

Seeing this, Danzo didn't say much. He picked up the information on the ground and frowned after reading it. He was shocked.

Then, he handed the information to Homura and Koharu.

After everyone finished reading, Homura spoke up, "Shinnosuke must have been framed. The murderer should be His Highness the First Prince."

Danzo squinted and retorted, "Homura, you can't speak nonsense. How can His Highness kill his own father?"

"I'm just guessing. Maybe His Highness the First Prince can't wait to succeed the throne."

"After all, the biggest beneficiary of this matter was His Highness the First Prince."

Danzo coldly said: "It is also possible that the enemy is secretly playing a trick to provoke the relationship between Daimyo of Fire Capital and Konoha."

In any case, he could not let the Eldest Prince, who supported him, become the murderer, even if it was true.

The Daimyo who died was not important, but the funds for the Hokage were extremely important.

Besides, the one who died was the son of Hiruzen, not my son.

Homura thought for a moment and said doubtfully, "But according to the description in the intelligence, there is no sign of enemy spies."

Danzo said lightly, "What if it's an illusion? For example, Uchiha's clan. This kind of evil clan is good at this kind of conspiracy."

"Enough!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi shouted angrily. His bloodshot eyes stared at the three people and said in a ruthless tone,

"I called you here this time not to discuss who is the mastermind and who is the murderer."

"I want you all to follow me to pressure the Fire Capital."

"Tell them to hand over His Highness the eldest Prince and that person called Abe Akira."

Shinnosuke died tragically, and Asuma's whereabouts were also unknown. How could Hiruzen not feel heartache?

Danzo naturally saw the determination in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, but His Highness the eldest Prince was still beneficial to him, so he had to protect him.

"I have no objections to capturing Abe Akira, but His Highness is the next Daimyo. Ninja Village can not touch him."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep look at Danzo, somewhat seeing through his thoughts, and said coldly:

"Even if we captired the Eldest Prince, there is still his brother to take the throne."

"Now vote, those who agree with me raise their hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi took the lead to raise his hand, and then looked at the three people with cold eyes, his eyes full of threat.
