Konoha's Black Grim Reaper

Since he was going to inquire about information, of course Akabane would not go openly. A little disguise was still necessary, at least to ensure that Sham's identity would not be exposed.

Because Danzo was removed from the position of root leader by the Third Hokage, it is unlikely that he will appear at the root base. Apart from the fact that it is so late at the base, it is only possible that he is at home. If it is at other bases outside, then Akabane is also There was no way to go, after all, he didn't know where he was.

The Shimura family and the Sarutobi family are very close, and it is not difficult for Akabane to find them. The location of each family is also marked on Konoha's tourist map, so Akabane quickly arrived outside the Shimura family.

The Shimura family is also a big family in Konoha. Like the Sarutobi family, they joined the Konoha Ninja Village when Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara founded it. They are considered to be the first group of veteran-level families.

There is no doubt about the strength of the Shimura family. Danzo has been the second-in-command of Konoha for so long, and there must be some private armed forces. The family is simply five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry away, and the defense is very tight.

The strict surveillance outside the mansion made it easy for Akabane to come out. It was of course impossible for Akabane to be discovered by the Shimura family's patrol sentry.

Akabane was sneaking quietly in the Shimura family's territory. Although the Shimura family was very large, it pales in comparison to the former Uchiha clan. There were only a dozen buildings in the entire territory, and the largest one was the clan building. The ancestral hall, and the patriarch’s home is opposite the ancestral hall.

Arriving at the door of Shimura Danzō's house, Akabane found a familiar figure walking in. That person was Aburame Togen.

Aburame Tonine returned to Konoha after being defeated by him in Kawanoguni last time, and it seemed that he had not been punished by Danzo.

"No matter, let's go in first." Akabane disappeared on the street of the Shimura family with a leap.

"Orochimaru, are you sure you have arranged everything? You know, what I want." Danzo's deep voice sounded in the main hall. It seemed that Akabane's trip was not in vain. Orochimaru was indeed here.

"Don't worry, I have arranged for someone to send the information out, and Akabane will definitely come to save the old man." Orochimaru's voice was very hoarse, which made people feel uncomfortable.

After hearing about himself, Akabane's ears moved closer. From this conversation, Akabane seemed to hear that there was a trap to deal with him, but it was unclear what it was.

"Orochimaru, I'm curious how you informed him." Danzo's originally squinted eyes suddenly opened, and a surge of momentum struck in all directions, even Orochimaru was moved.

There is no doubt about Danzo's strength. Orochimaru may not necessarily get any benefits from fighting him, but Danzo rarely takes action, and the outside world is not very clear about his strength.

"Haha, there is an interesting organization that has arranged a nail in my team, but this nail is now for my use. I only need to give this information to them. So what do you think they will do if they have a grudge against Konoha? "Orochimaru went from being surprised at first to calm down later, so he explained with a sinister smile.

"An organization that has a grudge against Konoha." Danzo regained his momentum, lowered his head and pondered. In his opinion, there were too many people who had grudges against Konoha, and he didn't know who they were.

"I have been in this organization before. I wonder if you still remember the Akatsuki organization in the Land of Rain?" Orochimaru's words directly awakened Danzo. How could he not know about the Akatsuki organization? He was the one who planned Hanzo to kill Akatsuki's leader. .

Danzo clenched his hands into fists, as if remembering something bad, and then said: "Akatsuki, is Akatsuki coming to attack Konoha herself?"

Orochimaru shook his head. Are you kidding me? What benefit does Akatsuki attack Konoha bring to them at this time? Whether they can win or not is another matter. The main reason is that they won't get any benefits if they win, so this deal is not worth it. .

"Of course Akatsuki is not that stupid, but Akatsuki can find someone who has a grudge against Konoha and is relatively powerful to disgust Konoha. Moreover, I also emphasized in the intelligence that you are also involved. Guess who they will find. "Orochimaru smiled, very proudly.

"Orochimaru" Danzo was angry. He didn't expect Orochimaru to tell his story directly. You must know that there is also an informant Uchiha Itachi who was inserted by the Third Hokage inside the Akatsuki. In case the Third Generation knows about this matter Okay, that's a big deal.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? You did participate in this plan. You just need to ensure that this plan can be implemented smoothly. When the old man dies, what else do you have to fear?" Orochimaru said Those words completely forced Danzo out of all his options.

After hearing this, Akabane finally understood that Orochimaru planned this Konoha collapse plan and asked Danzo to be the internal coordinator. Then Danzo gave the condition that Orochimaru would catch him and hand him over to him. Orochimaru told Danzo that he could let him He is also involved in this big plan, and the rest depends on whether Danzo's methods can catch him.

The information from Scorpion must have been given to Kabuto by Orochimaru on purpose. Kabuto, a double agent, had actually betrayed Scorpion a long time ago. He handed this information to Scorpion, and then Scorpion came to Payne to discuss it. The final result of the discussion was that Akatsuki could not But he could find someone who had a grudge against Danzo, and the last candidate was naturally focused on Akabane.

In this whole plan, Orochimaru was also very clever. He knew that there must be an old man's spy in Akatsuki, so he wrote about Danzo's affairs, so that he could force Danzo to stop having evil thoughts about him and be honest. Implement the plan, and if it succeeds, everyone will win. If it fails, just walk away, but Danzo will not be able to gain a foothold in Konoha.

Orochimaru's three-bird-with-one-stone strategy was indeed a good one. Even Akabane had to admire him, but they still didn't say how they were going to deal with him.

"It's your business how to deal with my little junior brother. I came here just to confirm whether our plan can still go ahead." Orochimaru's goal has been achieved. What he fears most is to get someone here and then Danzo regrets it. , and Danzo knows all his plans, which will make his plans aborted.

Danzo narrowed his eyes again, but it could be seen from his expression that he was furious at this moment.

"Continue." A short word came out of Danzo's mouth, and even Akabane felt that the surrounding temperature dropped several degrees, and a chill came to him.

After Orochimaru got the answer he needed, he turned around and prepared to leave. However, when he just took a step, something suddenly came to his mind, so he said again: "By the way, there is one more thing. Konoha seems to have heard it recently. There are some rumors, the surveillance of the mansion is getting more and more serious, I don’t know what you should do.”

Orochimaru's words were a reminder to Danzo that Konoha seemed to already know about the existence of Konoha's collapse plan, which meant that the Third Generation had obtained information about the secret agents in the Akatsuki organization, allowing Danzo to make arrangements in advance.

Danzo had already left the center of power, and he didn't know why the third generation had stepped up surveillance. But at this time, he would rather believe what he had than what he didn't, so he still had to make preparations.
