Naruto God Tree Arrives

"Orochimaru" After hearing the answer, Sarutobi's eyes twitched, and then he asked in a somewhat urgent tone: "Are you mistaken when you say this is Orochimaru's residence? I have been there before, although the houses look similar. , but the surrounding environment is completely different from the photos.”

Fugaku bowed his head respectfully and said: "To inform you, Hokage-sama, the Security Department has confirmed after many verifications that the residence is indeed owned by Orochimaru-sama.

In addition, the house was originally located in the fringe area of ​​Youzi, and the surrounding area was relatively desolate. However, with the continuous expansion and renovation in the past ten years, it has become the central area of ​​the village, and the surrounding streets have gradually become prosperous.Except for Lord Orochimaru's old residence which remains unchanged, other places are completely different.

Lord Hokage probably hasn't visited Orochimaru for many years, so it's normal for him not to recognize him."

"Zhizhi" After hearing Fugaku's second affirmative reply, Sarutobi squeezed the corner of the photo with his right hand and made a slight sound.

The last trace of luck in his heart had disappeared. Based on Sarutobi's understanding of Orochimaru, he could roughly deduce what his proud disciple had done.At this time, his psychology was very complicated, including anger, pain, self-blame, and regret. Although the things Orochimaru did were cruel and evil, he, the teacher, could not escape the blame.

Sarutobi recalled in his mind the handsome young disciple with a melancholic temperament back then, and then compared it with the evil and ambitious Orochimaru-sama today. He suddenly felt extremely sad and felt that it was because of his neglect of discipline over the years as a teacher. The disciples went astray.

"It seems that I am not only an unqualified Hokage, but also a failed teacher" Sarutobi thought mockingly to himself.

After a long time, he took a long breath and looked at Fugaku and said with emotion: "It seems that the village has indeed changed a lot in these years, and even I, the Hokage, are a bit unfamiliar.

Orochimaru's identity is indeed very special. He has become very close to Danzo in the past few years, and Kakon has done experiments with Naoki.

Well, the two leaders of Genbu and Anbu are protecting him at the same time, so it’s no wonder that you will report directly to me. "

"This" Fugaku said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Hokage-sama clearly sees that although this matter involves Orochimaru-sama, it has absolutely nothing to do with the other two adults."

"Haha, you don't have to play tricks on me." Sarutobi waved his hands with a sneer on his face: "Even the ordinary villagers have noticed such a big movement. I, the Hokage, have not received the news until now, but the roots and ANBU seem to have nothing." As I know, is this possible?

And if no one provided help, how could Orochimaru's research department alone sneak so many people into the village?

Well, it seems that the three of them have a tacit understanding, and they actually joined forces to do such a big thing. "

Fugaku's head lowered even lower, and he said in a fearful tone: "Lord Hokage's words are serious, others cannot guarantee it, but as a person like Nasuki, he will never do such a thing.

Moreover, Nawaki-sama is now the widely expected successor of Hokage in Konoha. If this matter is blamed on him, not only will the people in the village not believe it, but they may also have unfavorable thoughts towards Hokage-sama.

& nb

sp;So it must be that Mr. Naoki has been away on expeditions in the past few years and cannot be distracted, so he has neglected the situation in Konoha headquarters. "

On the surface, Fugaku's words were meant to excuse the rope tree, but in fact they contained evil intentions and implied provocation.

"Hmph." After hearing this, Sarutobi retorted coldly: "His Anbu are known to be all-pervasive and even know the internal secrets of enemy countries. How could he not know about such a big thing happening inside Konoha?"

Fugaku was secretly happy when he heard this. He didn't know Danzo's specific plan, and his only mission was to expose Orochimaru's crimes of human experimentation to the Hokage.

He also understands that it is absolutely impossible to bring down the rope tree with just one thing. However, if the third generation of Hokage is dissatisfied with the rope tree, then the Hokage's succession is likely to have twists and turns. At the worst, it can also damage the reputation of the rope tree. You know Sarutobi But if a conflict breaks out before the succession of the throne between Shengshu's teacher, even if Shengshu wins in the end, he will not be able to escape the reputation of bullying his teacher and destroying his ancestors. It would be better if the succession of the throne can be disrupted.

Thinking of his success, Fugaku couldn't help but smile. Fortunately, he lowered his head, so it was not easy to be discovered.

Unexpectedly, Sarutobi quickly changed the topic and said in a gentle tone: "However, you are right about one thing. With the character of Nawaki, he will definitely not take the initiative to get involved in such things.

This kid has always protected his shortcomings, and it must have been out of brotherhood that he helped the evil disciple cover up.

At this point, like me, he places too much emphasis on friendship, but this is the biggest weakness for a leader. I just hope that after he becomes Hokage, he will not ruin Konoha's major events because of his personal relationship."

Although Sarutobi was blaming Naoki, his eyes were full of relief. You must know that Orochimaru had betrayed Naoki's line and cooperated with Danzo because of his position as Hokage, and Naoki knew Orochimaru's handle. , not only did not take advantage of the opportunity to attack, but helped him cover it up, which shows that he is as emotional as he is.

Soon Sarutobi said with a cold expression: "On the contrary, Danzo's methods are getting darker and darker, and he has become very close to Orochimaru in recent years. This matter must be closely related to the root cause. If I had known it, In this way, I shouldn't have let the two of them mix together in the first place. Orochimaru's character is already very dangerous, and coupled with Danzo's influence, he will go further and further away."

"What?" Fugaku looked up at Sarutobi with a stiff expression when he heard this. He didn't expect that Sarutobi's attitude would be like this. Not only did he not have any doubts about the rope tree, but he put all the blame on Danzo.

You must know that in order to remove himself from this incident, Danzo specifically asked Fugaku to report him. If he heard what Sarutobi was saying now, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Fugaku didn't know whether Danzo would vomit blood, but he felt that he was about to vomit blood. His carefully prepared alienation strategy had no effect at all. On the contrary, the Hokage guessed part of the truth. Although Danzo did not say it clearly, but in Fugaku It seems that he must have had in-depth cooperation with Orochimaru on human experiments, otherwise how could he know the location of the laboratory so well?

However, Fugaku believed that he was not responsible for the failure of the provocation this time. He could only blame Danzo's poor character. Even Sarutobi, an old brother, did not hesitate to put the blame on him.

Fugaku now doubts whether the Uchiha clan will be tricked to death if they cooperate with such a person.
