Become a Master from Hokage

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen understood.

Whatever makes me excited is because I am overthinking it.The villagers behaved like this because the news about Hatake Sakumo's mission failure spread.

For the first time, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt not embarrassed, but angry.

Since the news about Hatake Sakumo was spread, he was even more angry that the information was easily leaked under his nose.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew without thinking that Danzo Shimura was definitely responsible for this matter.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen no longer thought about eating.

Trying to pretend to be calm and calm, he tried to comfort the villagers on the street.

Sarutobi Hiruzen went back to the Hokage's office in an angry mood. Shimura Danzo was blatantly ignoring him, and he actually acted on his own initiative.

.......

The first thing Sarutobi Hiruzen did when he returned to his office was to call Danzo Shimura into his office, ready to question him why he did this.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did this without even investigating.

Because he knew that Shimura Danzo would not leave any clues.

Therefore, instead of going to great lengths to investigate, it would be better to call him to his office and question him directly.

No matter what you do, the end result is the same. You have to call him over and ask him personally.

……

With the sound of footsteps, Shimura Danzo, who was summoned by Sarutobi Hiruzen, opened the door and walked into the Hokage's office with a calm expression.

"Danzo, why are you doing this!"

As soon as Danzo Shimura entered the door, Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Hiruzen, I don't know what you're talking about."

Danzo Shimura didn't hesitate for a second and said directly.

Seeing Shimura Danzo's innocent look, Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes and stared at him closely.

If it weren't for the fact that he was so familiar with Danzo Shimura, Hiruzen Sarutobi might have been deceived by his performance.

"Danzo, you don't have to pretend to me, you understand what I'm talking about! Tell me, why did you do this about Sakumo?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not ask how Danzo obtained the information. This was a private contest and had not reached the point of bringing it to the table.

Danzo, who heard what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, showed an expression of sudden realization.

He had no idea that he could hide Sarutobi Hiruzen, as long as he could hide it from others.

But that's what I said, but for the sake of the next words, I still have to show myself to be more selfless.

"So you're talking about this, Hiruzen. Aren't I thinking about you too?"

"Think about me!?"

Looking at Shimura Danzo who looked selfless and sacrificial for others, Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted angrily.

"Do you know that the news that Sakumo's mission failed is spreading everywhere in the village?"

"What do you want Sakumo to think about this situation? Don't forget, he is not only the ANBU minister, but also the leader of the Hatake clan!"

"If you do this, what will the other families think?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that he almost pointed at Danzo's nose and cursed.

Shimura Danzo, who was reprimanded, changed his usual tit-for-tat situation.

This time, he had already thought about how to persuade Sarutobi Hiruzen, so facing the angry Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo still said with a smile:

"Isn't this a good thing? Hiruzen, you must know that Hatake Sakumo is the White Fang of Konoha!"

"A good thing? So what if Sakumo is Konoha White Ga?"

Seeing Shimura Danzo's performance, Sarutobi Hiruzen's temper also dropped a lot, and he frowned and asked.

"Hiruzen, you don't know how high Sakumo Hatake's prestige is in Konoha, right? You don't know how many people are expecting Sakumo Hatake to take over as the Fourth Hokage, right?"

Shimura Danzo said to Sarutobi Hiruzen, with a smile still on his face, making it impossible to tell what he really thought.

After hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen fell silent.

Of course he is aware of these situations, but Hatake Sakumo is one of the pillars of Konoha after all. How can he destroy Konoha's foundation?

When Shimura Danzo saw this, he also knew that he had hit Sarutobi Hiruzen's weakness, so he quickly added:

"Hiruzen, do you also want Sakumo to take over as Hokage?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen remained silent. Compared to Hatake Sakumo, the head of the ANBU, he naturally preferred the Sannin, the successors of Konoha, who were up and coming.

"Hiruzen, I know you prefer Orochimaru to take over as Hokage. However, if Hatake Sakumo's momentum has been brewing like this for several years, let alone Orochimaru, I believe even you will not be able to suppress it."

"So, isn't this a good opportunity to weaken Hatake Sakumo's momentum?"

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was somewhat persuaded by his words, Shimura Danzo said while the iron was hot.

……

"Whoo~"

After being silent for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally exhaled a long breath.

"I'll just pretend I don't know anything about this, and you should be careful about yourself."

After saying this, Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and waved to Shimura Danzo.

Seeing this, Danzo Shimura didn't say any more nonsense, and turned around and left the Hokage's office.

However, the unstoppable smile on his face revealed his mood at this time.

Hiruzen!This time I am the winner after all, you also have weaknesses.

This thought silently emerged in Danzo Shimura's mind.

……

And with Sarutobi Hiruzen's acquiescence, the news that Hatake Sakumo's mission failed became more and more intense in the village.

This can be seen from the recent experience of Hatake Sakumo.

At first, when Hatake Sakumo returned to the village and had no mission for the time being, he just felt that everyone was always talking about him behind his back.

He didn't care at first, after all, everyone in the village was like this before.

However, slowly he discovered something was wrong.

Because the villagers of Konoha began to slowly become alienated and hostile to themselves.

I wanted to inquire about the situation, but before I could get close, these people all dispersed.

It wasn't until three days later, when Matt Dai came to apologize in person that he realized that his abandonment of the mission had spread throughout the village.

From this day on, the rumors in the village intensified.

There were even radicals who came to the door of Hatake's house and shouted the word "trash".

All of this, of course, cannot escape Hatake Sakumo's eyes.

The behavior of the villagers made Hatake Sakumo's heart feel as if it was blocked by a stone.

I want to explain, but I don't know how.

After all, he did give up the mission.

……

The rumors became more and more intense, and the behavior of the villagers in the village became more and more violent.

Even when Hatake Sakumo was walking on the street, people no longer tried to hide it, but just pointed at him openly and openly.
