Naruto God Tree Arrives

Chapter 198 Danzo’s Divine Plan

After listening to Koharu's explanation, Naoki nodded to indicate that he understood, and did not ask about the details of the negotiation. Although his status has been improved, he has not been appointed to a specific position, which is a typical low-level position.

Previously, he held the temporary highest military position of commander-in-chief of the Ninja Army. Naoki could use his authority to make suggestions on all aspects of the war. Now with the end of the war and the return of the Ninja Army, his position as commander-in-chief has been cancelled. If you exceed your authority, you will not only easily offend people, but also leave the impression of power-hungry and domineering on top management.

So after understanding the basic situation, Noshu stopped there without going into details. "Since the most important negotiations and diplomacy have been successfully completed under the auspices of Advisor Koharu, the hostages should be released in accordance with the agreement. In addition, the number of prisoners of war in each country It’s huge, and the ninjas in the four major ninja villages are quite powerful, so before all the prisoners of war leave the country, we must strictly monitor them to avoid threatening the safety of the village.”

While Naoki answered the third generation's question, he carefully observed the expressions of the senior officials. He always felt that the third generation deliberately asked himself such a seemingly simple question, and there must be a deeper meaning.

Sure enough, after listening to his answer, the smiles on the faces of Sandai, Koharu, and Men Yan became more natural, while Danzo's expression became a little stiff.

It turned out that during the negotiations between Konoha and various countries, Danzo still did not give up his previous plan. He could not get the support of the top officials on the surface, so he chose to carry out some small actions secretly.

In the past few days, the root members under his command have been fanning the flames of war in the village, exaggerating the strength of Konoha and Noden Tree, hoping to arouse the villagers' war mood.

Not to mention, Nebe's theory is really popular in Konoha. When Nawaki led the army back to Konoha today, the reason why the villagers were so enthusiastic was due to Danzo and his Nebe.After their hard publicity, the rope tree has become a new generation of war god in the eyes of Konoha villagers after the first generation Hokage and the second generation Hokage.

If this kind of thing happened to another person, the higher-ups and the Hokage would be suspicious and wary, and they would be classified into the martial arts faction headed by Danzo in their hearts.Under the danger of being killed, it would be impossible not to be tied to a chariot by Danzo.

But who is Shengshu? The patriarch of the Thousand Hands Clan, the direct grandson of the first and second generations, and the direct disciple of the third generation!After adding up these identities, his status in Konoha is inherently transcendent, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a prince.Coupled with his extraordinary talents at a young age, he can already be regarded as the best candidate to inherit the position of Hokage in the future.

In terms of strength, the Senju clan has once again become the number one wealthy family in Konoha. Coupled with the interests of the Konoha Consortium and all the top leaders, his current position in Konoha Village is completely stable and unshakable!If he is willing, he can even set up a separate mountain to become a third-party political force besides the martial arts faction and the peace faction!

For him, the higher the reputation, the better. He has no worries about being praised. It is impossible to use public opinion to kidnap him.

Therefore, even if Danzo's little move is successful, the key to achieving his goal still depends on the rope tree. If he himself does not agree with Danzo's plan, everything will be in vain.

And just now, Naoki had a flash of inspiration and preached a speech about love in front of all the Konoha villagers, which had already eradicated all the negative influence created by Danzo.

Sandai's seemingly random question just now was actually directed at the rope tree.

After the last test, I was finally relieved to see that he advocated peace as expected by me and others, and had no intention of further launching a war to invade other countries.

But Danzo was not one to give up easily. Even if Naoki's words just now were considered a statement, he still wanted to try to persuade him: "Naoki, this time Konoha won a complete victory in the war in the Whirlpool Country. Losing one soldier shows a lot of problems and is also a rare opportunity!”

Naoki had already guessed what Danzo was thinking, but he remained calm on the surface, pretending to be asking for advice humbly: "I wonder what the leader of Danzo has to say? I'm all ears!"

Danzo saw Naoki's respectful attitude, and hope was rekindled in his heart. His confidence in convincing Naoki greatly increased, so he said with burning eyes: "This time, Naoki, you will lead only 1000 Konoha elites and more than 2000 Uzumaki clan members." The miscellaneous ninja army wiped out the four major ninja villages with twice their strength in just three days, as well as the rabble from various small countries!"

Hearing this, Konoha's original high-level officials took it for granted, and some even nodded in agreement.But Uzumaki Omasa frowned. What do you mean by the elite of Konoha and the bastards of the Uzumaki clan? This war is all due to you Konoha, and I, the Uzumaki clan, are just handymen? This is really too much!

Although he was unhappy, he was new here after all, so he couldn't rashly refute, so he could only swallow his anger.

"This shows that under your command, I, Konoha, can defeat most of the countries in the ninja world."

"In recent years, with the expansion of the ninja school, the number of ninjas in Konoha has been increasing, and it has completely surpassed the other four major ninja villages. Now Konoha's military power has surpassed the entire ninja world!"

"Coupled with the layout of the past few years, the Konoha Consortium has controlled the foreign trade of the Country of Fire. The economic strategy you proposed before has been completed."

"Just like what you said, Naoki, if you are poor, you can be alone, but if you are rich, you can help the world! With Konoha's current military and economic strength, we can start a war to unify the shinobi world and achieve permanent peace!"

Naoki still looked calm after hearing this. He knew very well the thoughts of Danzo, a fighting sect, so he was not surprised at all by what he said.In fact, in Nawaki's plan, after he ascends to the position of Hokage, he will definitely launch a war to unify the ninja world, or even replace the daimyo, and Danzo is likely to be a potential ally to help him complete these plans in the future, so he feels It's a good opportunity to test the attitude of senior officials towards Konoha's future strategy in advance.

After he glanced at the other high-level officials of Konoha who also looked calm, he nodded with a smile and said, "What Leader Danzo said sounds very reasonable. What should be done specifically?"

"Ahem! Nasuki! We have signed peace treaties with ninja villages from various countries! Isn't it appropriate to start a war again?" The third Hokage couldn't help but interrupted when he saw Nasuki's ambiguous attitude.

"Chief Shengshu, the plan to obtain peace through negotiation and diplomacy was planned by you!" Xiaochun also reminded.

"If we start the war rashly, Konoha will definitely be besieged by the entire ninja world. This has been made clear before aiding the country of whirlpool." Men Yan looked at the rope tree in confusion and said, always feeling that his performance today It's different from before. Could it be that he was as dazzled by victory as Danzo and wanted to gamble the whole of Konoha?

After hearing the three people speak, other senior officials also echoed and persuaded.
