The Water Mist Assassin from Hokage

"But Hokage-sama, if you do this, what will happen to Orochimaru-senpai?" Namikaze Minato looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a hesitant tone.

"It's okay. I will explain it to Orochimaru personally at that time." Sarutobi Hiruzen sat on a chair and looked at Namikaze Minato who looked hesitant, and expressed relief.

Because of the death of Shimura Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen truly felt that his body could no longer support him. Looking at Namikaze Minato who looked like a little sun in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen also decided to kill him quickly. Ranma made Namikaze Minato the next Hokage.

However, no matter how much Sarutobi Hiruzen tried to persuade, Namikaze Minato refused extremely seriously, and the main problem was Orochimaru.

As a disciple of Jiraiya, Namikaze Minato not only grew up under Jiraiya's teachings, but also had a lot of help from Orochimaru in the village. After all, although Jiraiya was a very good teacher, His unconventional character destined him to be unable to help his disciples in some aspects.

But Orochimaru, who is thoughtful and thoughtful, is just the opposite. He helps Namikaze Minato through many difficulties because of Jiraiya's entrustment.

So when he heard that he was going to compete with his master uncle for the position of Hokage, Namikaze Minato naturally refused.

From the very beginning, Minato Namikaze never wanted to become the Fourth Hokage. In fact, Minato Namikaze wanted to become the Fifth Hokage. However, it was just a war and Orochimaru did not set an example in the village, so Namikaze Minato naturally had to step forward.

Being rejected forcefully by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Namikaze Minato looked bitter. After thinking for a long time, he didn't agree. He only said that he would go back and discuss it with Kushina. Naturally, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't force Namikaze Minato to become Hokage. So I had to drop the matter.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen is also a little curious about what his apprentice Orochimaru is doing recently. Because he was busy with the war, he never had time to pay attention to his disciple who worried him the most. Although there are still many things in the village after the war this time It needed to be dealt with, but Hiruzen Sarutobi still planned to visit his disciple first.

"By the way, Hokage-sama, I have one more thing." Namikaze Minato did not leave immediately, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen and saying his request.

"What is it?" Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up the cigarette stick and planned to relax. After all, everyone present was from his own faction. Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want to imprint a serious and stereotyped impression on everyone, so he would naturally do something more friendly to the people. This kind of behavior is not like a smoker trying to catch fish.

Namikaze Minato also turned to look at Kakashi, who had been standing behind him. At this time, Kakashi covered half of his face with his collar, but the ominous red eye was not covered in any way.

"I hope to be transferred into the ANBU." Kakashi said his request. Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the boy's hazy eyes, sat up straight and put the cigarette rod aside.

"Can you tell me why?" Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Kakashi with gentle eyes.

"Because I want to protect everyone and the village. I...I hope that everyone can live happily under the sun." Kakashi has never been an idiot, otherwise he would not be 13 years old. Become a Jonin.

It should be noted that becoming a Jonin requires not only sufficient strength, but also reputation in the village. After all, for a village, a Jonin can be regarded as a very important appearance, so every selection of a Jonin has incomparable significance. Complex procedures and visits.

The 13-year-old Jonin Kakashi naturally knew that there was darkness in the village that he could not understand.

It was this darkness that allowed Yuan Ye Lin to be caught when the teacher was transferred alone to perform a mission. It was also this darkness that allowed Kai to escape from the hospital with layers of ninja protection. At the same time, it was belatedly until Lin's death. Konoha ninjas all said that there was an extremely terrifying force behind this.

Lin's death was because of these darkness, Obito's inability to return to the village was because of these darkness, and Kai will soon undergo a near-death operation because of this darkness. It can be said that when Kakashi proposed to join ANBU, He had already made plans to die in ANBU.

"Really..." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Kakashi's young appearance, "I understand, then I will arrange it."

With the approval of the Third Hokage, Kakashi's original solemn expression also relaxed. Kai punched Kakashi on the side with a cane, feeling extremely happy for his lifelong rival.

"Danzo, you are wrong after all. Darkness does not mean destruction and fear, but also represents silent dedication and protection." Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the empty office, clapped his hands, and saw the ANBU hiding in the corner. Ninja also appeared in front of him.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at his son. During this war, Konoha faced danger many times. As a shadow of the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi sent his children out to carry out extremely difficult and dangerous tasks many times, and as a result, his own The second son quarreled with himself and ran away from home.

But after experiencing so many hardships, his child has now fully grown up and is now a ninja who can stand alone. For Sarutobi Hiruzen, this may be the most gratifying thing for him.

"I hope you can accept this next position."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at his child and took out the proposal Danzo had prepared for him when he established the Roots. Although Danzo later went further and further down the evil path, it must be said that it was the Danzo who first moved Hiruzen Sarutobi to establish the Roots. Zang still has a very great dream, and now the proposal recording Danzo's dream is in the hands of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"I want you to take a look at it and tell me what you're going to do about it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen clearly knew that where there is light, there is darkness, so instead of letting this darkness get out of control, it is better to control him from the beginning.

Therefore, it is impossible for the roots to be disbanded, but Sarutobi Hiruzen does not intend to continue Danzo's old path.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who always firmly believes that a new era is coming, hopes that a new root will emerge, one that can fulfill his old friend's original dream.

"I know, father." The ANBU ninja, who was looking at the cat demon, took the proposal with both hands, turned around and disappeared.

"I hope you can bless him, my old friend..." Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up, moved his body slightly, put the God's robe on him again, and Hiruzen Sarutobi walked out of the Hokage's office building and faced Move forward outside the village.

"Orochimaru, where are you?" Arriving at his disciple's laboratory, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the bottles and jars of experimental equipment in the room. He was a little worried about the whereabouts of his disciple. After thinking for a long time, he ordered to follow him. The ANBU team sent out manpower to find traces of Orochimaru.

At the same time, Orochimaru, whom Sarutobi Hiruzen longed for, was underground in Yugakure Village, holding a large bag of blood in his hand and using a brush to draw a huge magic circle on the ground.

At this time, the ground had been cleared by Orochimaru. Orochimaru looked at the young ninja in front of the formation, licked his lips with his long tongue, and began his plan to change his body.
