Konohagakure's New Blood!

Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer Chapter 504 Konohagakure's New Blood!

"Wait!"

Just as Danzo turned around, Hiruzen immediately called out to him. After that, he quickly caught up and stood in front of him.

"Danzo."

"What happened to you recently?"

"Why are you so cold to me?"

"Is there any misunderstanding between us?"

Hiruzen couldn't help but ask. He knew that Danzo coveted his position, but he had also been using Danzo to help him consolidate his position. The two of them complemented each other, just like the light and dark sides of the same object.

He was on the light side and Danzo was on the dark side.

However.

Ever since Danzo recovered from his serious injuries.

He could clearly feel that Danzo wanted to say something but didn't. In the end, he chooses not to say anything.

It was precisely because of him not saying anything.

This caused many of his actions and judgment in resulting more problems, especially when it came to the ninjas of the Uzumaki Clan and some problems regarding Danzo's treatment process.

Hiruzen really misunderstood Danzo on this point.

Danzo didn't say anything not because he didn't want to say it, but because he really couldn't say it. He couldn't say it to Hiruzen because of the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on his tongue.

Danzo couldn't say anything about Aoba.

Of course.

It wasn't just Aoba.

As long as it involved the matter of Aoba's shadow clone, there was no way for Danzo to say it out.

Due to this reason, such a situation occurred. Hiruzen felt that Danzo had something to say, but he never said it.

This also directly provided convenience for Aoba. Now, Hiruzen only felt that something was wrong with Danzo, not that there was a problem with Danzo's identity.

"I have no problem with you."

Danzo said indifferently. He did not expect that he would force this old fox, Hiruzen, to this extent. After all, according to Danzo's previous memories, even if Hiruzen was in front of Danzo, he would rarely completely remove his disguise and discuss something.

In most cases, Hiruzen held back.

However.

What Danzo said was right.

What he was doing now was not because he had a problem with Hiruzen, but because he wanted to push Hiruzen into an irredeemable abyss.

If he pushed too hard.

It would definitely cause the latter to resist.

On the contrary, it was this feeling of ambiguity that made the other party keep digging in.

"But this matter involves too much. It involves the Hokage position. I can only provide you with a plan, but whether this plan is the final plan or not, and how you want to do it, you have to make the decision yourself." Danzo slowly said.

"Danzo, you have changed. You were not like this before. You will not let go of my affairs!" Hiruzen stared at Danzo and said. This was his true thought. In the past, Danzo did not directly leave Hiruzen hanging when he encountered such a crisis. Instead, he tried his best to advise Hiruzen. Now that Danzo was leaving, Hiruzen suddenly felt a sense of loss.

"I will give you a detailed plan regarding Sakumo. I will also lend you the people from Root to help you complete this task. This should be enough, right?" There was a trace of helplessness in Danzo's tone. It was as if his girlfriend was going to make a scene in front of him so he stepped back to coax her.

"Enough!"

A smile immediately appeared on Hiruzen's face. He recognized Danzo's ability very much, especially in doing things on the dark side.

However.

In his heart, he still didn't quite understand.

In the past, this kind of thing was directly settled by Danzo.

Why did he have to do it himself now?

Did Danzo have a change of heart?

Hiruzen silently thought in his heart, but he knew that now was not the time to investigate this matter. The most important thing now was to suppress Sakumo and keep the Hokage position. The rest of the things could be discussed later.

"I'll give you the detailed plan later."

Danzo silently threw down this sentence, and then directly walked toward the door of the office. He directly opened the door, and the scene in front of him entered his eyes.

Of course.

This eye of his did not have any specific use.

Before Danzo came out, he already knew what was going on outside. After Orochimaru settled down, Aoba's advanced paper clone had been using Rinnegan all the time. He had already passed all the images he saw to Danzo.

Danzo stood at the door and looked in Orochimaru's direction. After that, he looked at Aoba's advanced paper clone's direction. From beginning to end, he did not say anything, but it seemed like he said everything.

After that.

Danzo took a step forward.

He walked toward the corridor of the Hokage's office.

Aoba's advanced paper clone followed behind Danzo without a word.

Now was the best time for them to leave.

The reason was very simple.

If they continued to stay in the office for too long, it might cause Hiruzen to be suspicious. Hiruzen looked very amiable, but he was also a relatively delicate person. If he used Danzo's identity to communicate for too long, he might inadvertently reveal some flaws.

In addition, there was Orochimaru standing at the door.

This was indeed a very troublesome existence.

Now that Orochimaru had calmed down, he did not know when the other party would attack again. Aoba's advanced paper clone's thoughts were mostly focused on Danzo. As for why Orochimaru had suddenly stopped, he had not thought and judged further.

Just as Orochimaru made his move.

He was already mentally prepared to fight Orochimaru.

Because of the appearance of such variables, Aoba's advanced paper clone felt that the time to leave was just right. After all, this was the first time Orochimaru had come into contact with the puppet Danzo, so he still had to do it in moderation.

As they walked.

Danzo was in front.

Aoba's advanced paper clone was behind.

The two of them left the office one after the other.

Orochimaru stood at the door of the office. The moment Danzo came out, he looked at Danzo. However, he also did not say anything. He only meaningfully watched Danzo and Aoba's advanced paper clone leave together.

"Interesting."

Orochimaru once again stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth. The moment Danzo walked out, he immediately discovered that there was something wrong with Danzo.

That state...

He had studied it countless times!

Just now, Danzo did not look like a living person, but more like a dead person. Inside that body, he could not feel any soul, only some chaotic chakra.

Orochimaru has very in-depth research on souls and corpses. Although he has no way to identify whose soul belongs to whom, he could still tell whether the body was alive or dead. As for whether there was a soul inside, he could also see it.

Danzo was dead!

Orochimaru immediately came to this conclusion in his heart!

But...

The problem came.

If Danzo died...

Why could Danzo walk right in front of him?

"There are more and more interesting things!"

Orochimaru licked his lips. His long and narrow eyes were filled with excitement. He did not expose this matter. Instead, he pretended that he had not discovered anything.

"Konohagakure's past life is too dull!"

"It is finally going to become interesting!"

"I wonder how long this storm will last!"

"I've been looking forward to this day for too long!"

Orochimaru said to himself. He did not feel any resistance toward this kind of thing that was filled with danger everywhere. Instead, he felt very excited. This was something he had been looking forward to for many years.

Even if there was nothing like what he saw now.

He could still cause some trouble.

It was just that he had yet to complete his research.

Once it was completed.

Then, the first thing he thought of was to test his teacher!

"Then..."

"Who is the person behind this?"

"Sharingan!"

"Uchiha!"

"Things are getting more and more interesting! Hahahahaha!"

When Orochimaru thought of this, he directly smiled. After that, he directly strode into the office. He was here to find Hiruzen. He was looking for Hiruzen for other matters, which had nothing to do with Danzo's current affairs.

...

On the other side.

Country of Fire, on a tree in a forest.

Hatake Sakumo and Minato sat together, leaning against the tree trunk. They were still talking about the previous topic, but Minato gradually understood what Hatake Sakumo meant.

"Minato, I am not playing a conspiracy game with you. You understand my character. I disdain to do such things, but if I don't play with you, there will be people in the village who will play with you. You should know that some people don't want you to be the Hokage, or strictly speaking, they don't want others to become the Hokage!"

Hatake Sakumo said with certainty.

All these years.

He became more and more aware of such things.

Especially this half-sleeve Hokage robe that symbolized glory, when draped over his body, not only did it not look like glory, but it was more like a shackle that locked down his path to becoming a Hokage.

"You mean..." Minato's blue eyes trembled slightly. Not only did he take a deep breath, he vaguely sensed something from Hatake Sakumo's words.

"That's right!"

Hatake Sakumo nodded. He understood what Minato meant, and his eyes flashed with a trace of coldness.

"Our Konohagakure looks peaceful on the surface, but in fact, it is like an old man who is seriously ill and refuses to be treated. It is already on the verge of collapse. Through this Ninja World War, it can be seen that Konohagakure has gradually lost its competitiveness in the ninja world!"

There was a worried expression on Hatake Sakumo's face. In fact, he felt that he was already a good commander. Although there was a situation where he misjudged things in the pulling with Iwagakure, most of the time, he had tried his best to ensure that Konohagakure was not at a disadvantage.

But...

The cleverest housewife cannot cook without rice!

Hatake Sakumo knew that even if he used all his strength to create Kakashi, he would not be able to let a village with insufficient fighting strength gain any advantage in the war.

From the moment Iwagakure's army kills their way toward the Country of Fire.

He already understood.

Konohagakure could no longer keep up with the ninja world rhythm.

They must go through a thorough renewal!

Similarly.

Just at that time.

Minato suddenly appeared in front of Konohagakure's ninja army, holding back the building from collapsing, and helping Konohagakure get through the storm.

Hatake Sakumo knew.

That person.

It was Konohagakure's new blood!
