Konoha's Ninja Successor

"What on earth is going on?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with a solemn expression.

Originally, it was very difficult for the village to face the problem of Uchiha plotting rebellion. Now Shimura Teru mentioned that the Uchiha clan's problem was related to the Nine-Tails Rebellion eight years ago. Sarutobi Hiruzen was completely unable to remain calm.

Shimura Teru also continued with a serious face: "According to my investigations in the past few years, the purpose of the Akatsuki organization is to collect nine tailed beasts. I don't know the ultimate purpose of capturing the tailed beasts yet."

A fierce aura came from Sarutobi Hiruzen. His eyes were sharp and he said coldly: "To collect tailed beasts, did the man behind the scenes attack Konoha eight years ago to collect the Nine-Tails? Now he is lurking in the village. , are you planning to attack the Jinchuuriki again?"

The mischievous blond boy flashed through Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, and he recalled Namikaze Minato who sacrificed his life for the Leaf Village eight years ago. He could not suppress the murderous intention of the mastermind in his heart.

Glancing at the angry-looking Hiruzen Sarutobi, Teru Shimura continued: "It's probably not about preparing to attack the tailed beast, but preparing in advance to capture the Nine-Tails."

"Eradicate the Uchiha clan, and cause internal strife in Konoha to further weaken Konoha's power, waiting for Konoha to weaken and wait for an opportunity to seize the Kyuubi. This guy has a big appetite..." Sarutobi Hiruzen figured out the joints. , said with a deep expression.

As a veteran politician, Sarutobi Hiruzen was naturally not stupid. When Shimura Teru said these words, he also thought of the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"The intelligence I have collected over the past eight years found that they have been trying to consume the power of the Five Ninja Villages, including the Leaf Village, in the past few years. It is estimated that it will not be long before they attack all the tailed beasts. And I am in the Kirigakure Village. After living there for a while, I discovered that the Fourth Mizukage over there was controlled by genjutsu. After being controlled by genjutsu, the Fourth Mizukage issued a series of policies that were extremely unfavorable to Kirigakure Village, completely destroying Kirigakure Village's original strong heritage. They have been exhausted, and now there is not even one out of ten people who can inherit the blood boundary in Kirigakure Village."

Shimura Teru paused, and then continued: "Even the shadow of Kirigakure Village is controlled by it, which is enough to show that the power behind the Akatsuki organization is very powerful. Their plan to capture the tailed beast is by no means just talk. Nine Their power can be seen from the two incidents of Tail Rebellion and Mizukage being manipulated.”

Shimura Teru's words directly brought up the point that the Akatsuki organization has sufficient power, in order to make Sarutobi Hiruzen attach absolute importance to this organization, and also to facilitate the smooth operation of the plans he plans to arrange later.

"Hui, why did you only tell me? Instead of discussing it with your father or the Godaime and the others?" Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, and he keenly noticed that Shimura Hui seemed to be hiding something.

When Teru Shimura faced Hiruzen Sarutobi's suspicious gaze, he smiled bitterly and said, "How should I put it? I had my reasons for not telling my stinky father. I haven't been around him in the past few years to remind him, what exactly is he doing now? I didn’t even know what it looked like, so I didn’t tell him this immediately, and I even suspected that dad was one of the black hands behind the Uchiha clan’s rebellion.”

Here Shimura Teru started to blackmail his father Shimura Danzo without any hesitation. He knew his father too well.If you want to accurately plan an arrangement that can both save the Uchiha clan and design Uchiha Obito, the old father Shimura Danzo is a point that must be avoided skillfully no matter what.

Rather than talking about Shimura Teru's defense against his father Shimura Danzo, it is better to talk about Shimura Teru's trust in his father. As a son, he knows the character and thoughts of this dark pot shadow all too well.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also looked stunned by Shimura Teru's words. He had not heard Shimura Teru commenting on his father in front of him for a long time. Shimura Teru, who had not seen each other for many years, still retained this habit.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was not surprised when he heard Shimura Teru's revelation that Shimura Danzo might be the mastermind behind the scenes. Even if he now abdicates behind the scenes, he knows very well that his old partner must be behind the scenes.Shimura Danzo has always been extremely cautious and fearful of the Uchiha clan.

And Shimura Teru's blunt statement about the matter without any concealment just proved his loyalty to the Leaf Village and proved that he was an outstanding ninja who inherited the will of modern fire. Sarutobi Hiruzen finally let go of the last worry in his heart about Shimura Teru.

"Hui, you have a Hokage-like way of thinking. You can always see more than others. Your will of fire has already surpassed your father and this old man like me." Sarutobi Hiruzen He sighed, and then continued affectionately: "As long as there are leaves flying, fire will burn..."

"Stop, stop, Sandaime, I know very well the greatness of the Will of Fire. Let's not talk about this topic at this time." Shimura Teru stopped Sarutobi Hiruzen's speech with a headache on his face. He didn't want to listen here. Sarutobi Hiruzen babbles about his Will of Fire.

When he was a boy, every time Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned the Will of Fire, Teru Shimura would get a headache. On the contrary, Minato Namikaze listened with interest and his eyes shone with longing.

The philosophical thinking conveyed by The Will of Fire is great, and Shimura Teru also respects it, but he cannot accept that an old man keeps mentioning this thing in your ears countless times. He sincerely feels that it is really troublesome, and every time I have a terrible headache.

The key point is that this is not enough. From time to time, Shimura Danzo will instill in him the roots of Konoha when he is captured by Shimura Danzo. Ninjas should bear the dark thought of humiliation and burden. Shimura Teru, who is brainwashed by these two old men every day, in Every time I hear these two people starting to talk about this kind of thing, I feel as painful as a monkey being recited a tight curse.

"Then why didn't you tell the Godaime the truth about the matter?" Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Shimura Teru and asked doubtfully.

Shimura Teru's face became heavy, and then said: "Sandaime, after my secret investigation in the past few days, and some speculations from the measures released by Konoha Village, the fifth generation Hokage Hatake Sakumo is likely to be the fourth generation of Kirigakure Village. Like the Mizukage, they are all controlled by the guy with the Sharingan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately clenched his hands and said with a solemn expression: "What is the basis? This matter is not trivial. If you don't have enough evidence, don't make any assumptions!"

The fifth generation Hokage of Konoha Village was manipulated. This was not just a matter of face for Konoha Village.The supreme leader of Konoha, who integrates military and political affairs, is manipulated by others, which may directly lead to Konoha village facing catastrophe, and Sarutobi Hiruzen must not be cautious.

There was no hint of joking on Shimura Teru's face. Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's somewhat oppressive eyes, Shimura Teru slowly said: "Originally I was just guessing, but now I am [-]-[-]% sure. The Fifth Hokage is very It is possible that he has been controlled by Sharingan genjutsu."
