I established the Kua Kua Cult in Naruto

Chapter 396: When there is a conflict of interest, people who were pleasing to the eye in the past will become disliked.

"I understand, children, you have worked hard too. Kaku and Haradao, please don't go back. Shinnosuke, please take them to rest."

A week later, in the Hokage's mansion, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to the embarrassed Shinnosuke with a complicated and forced smile. Beside him, Yamanaka Sataku and Harado stood with their heads lowered, while Tatsuma sat sideways, facing each other. Expressive.

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to send Shinnosuke and the others away because he just wanted to talk to Tatsuma about some topics that Shinnosuke and others should not be involved in. Tatsuma had already predicted this.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has not yet reached the age of Alzheimer's disease. This incident itself is full of all kinds of unreasonable coincidences. The most reasonable explanation is that Shinnosuke and the other three were used as guns.

As for the gunman, there is a high probability that he is Hiruzen Sarutobi's most promising junior - Sakamoto Tatsuma, and the bullet fired by Shinnosuke's gun was directed at his close friend Danzo Shimura, which also involved a person in the village. General Hatake Sakumo.

The complexity of this matter made even Sarutobi Hiruzen feel a headache after hearing it.

Shimura Danzo instigated Gen to attack Hatake Sakumo, and even had clear instructions to "kill" Hatake Sakumo. This matter was also discovered by his son Sarutobi Hiruzen. For a moment, he didn't know how to feel. .

Guilt towards Hatake Sakumo, anger towards Danzo, and Tatsuma. The most complicated emotion is towards Tatsuma.

Is Tatsuma using Shinnosuke as a spearman to force him? Yes, do you appreciate Chenma’s tactful yet straight-to-the-core approach? There are also.

But Tatsuma clearly did something right, but Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't be happy, and he wanted to talk more deeply.

It's not about Ne's murder of Hatake Sakumo, but why Tatsuma did what he did, why he did it, etc. These involve too much darkness and are not something Shinnosuke should listen to right now.

Shinnosuke, however, had a stern look on his face. He didn't understand what Hiruzen Sarutobi meant at all. He looked like Hiruzen Sarutobi usually taught Asuma who made mistakes, and said to Hiruzen Sarutobi:

"Father! This matter is so clear and clear, and the evidence is conclusive. You also saw the memories copied from the minds of the root members. Shouldn't you immediately order the arrest of Shimura Danzo?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face froze. He wanted to slam the table and yell, "Are you teaching me how to do things?!" But no, who told him that this was his son?

Taking a deep breath, he reminded himself that this was his own child, and besides, the child had not made any mistakes. After a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally spoke:

"Xiaoxin, Dad knows how much you care about the village, but this matter is of great importance and involves many things. It cannot be decided with just one word. I also want to discuss it in detail with Chenma.

To discuss a suitable resolution, you must understand Dad's difficulties and you must believe in Dad, okay? "

The expression on Shinnosuke's face clearly showed that he didn't understand. People who are inexperienced in the world will always look at things as independent events, and it is difficult to understand the word "widely involved".

Moreover, Shinnosuke didn't really believe his father at this moment. He even turned to look at Tatsuma. Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's complicated eyes, Tatsuma nodded.

Without saying a word, Shinnosuke turned around and left with Yamanaka Satoru and Haradochi.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent. Over the past few years, he had hoped that his children could get closer to Tatsuma, especially after he fully understood that his son had no ability to catch up with Tatsuma.

But before, Tatsuma and Shinnosuke didn't have much communication because of the lack of opportunities and environment. However, Shinnosuke knew about Tatsuma's admiration for Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he always thought it was a good thing.

But now that his son has only been in contact with Tatsuma for less than half a month, Sarutobi Hiruzen feels that his status in Shinnosuke's heart seems to be inferior to Tatsuma's status in Shinnosuke's heart.

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to a father. After all, fathers hope that they will always be the omnipotent person in the eyes of their children and the person they admire most.

He tried his best to tell her, but Shinnosuke didn't listen. Tatsuma just nodded, and Shinnosuke walked away. This...

Sarutobi Hiruzen digested the depression that had been brewing in his heart for a long time, and after taking a sip of the tea that cooled him down, but not his heart, he looked at Tatsuma and said, "What do you think?"

"Hokage-sama, does it matter what I think?"

Tatsuma smiled politely and took a sip of tea. After putting down the cup, he met the gaze of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"It's important, of course it's important. You are much smarter and more mature than Shinnosuke. He doesn't understand how far this matter is involved, but you know it, and even though you knew it, you still chose this way.

I want to know, why? Hatake Sakumo shouldn't be enough to make you pay so much, right? "

Sarutobi Hiruzen's words were in conflict with the will of fire he usually preached, but Tatsuma, a person who had been exposed to and even deeply involved in darkness, did not need to coax him to speak.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen directly got to the point. Hatake Sakumo was a valuable fighting force to the village, and to most people in the village, he was also a strong man worthy of respect.

But this reverence is different for everyone. Today's Tatsuma should not and will not take such risks just because he respects Hatake Sakumo.

After all, it was just to make friends with Hatake Sakumo, who was already on good terms with him, that he would not hesitate to make another senior member of the village hate him. Tatsuma was not such an irrational person.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's view, Tatsuma is undoubtedly a good boy who inherited the will of fire, but he is also an excellent ninja, and weighing the pros and cons is an essential ability for an excellent ninja.

Tatsuma has shown many times before that he will even make some cold-blooded and dark decisions after weighing the pros and cons.

Therefore, the straightforward justice of ordinary young people, such as Shinnosuke, does not apply to Tatsuma. There must be another reason for Tatsuma to do this.

"Hokage-sama, as you said, you should understand some things that Shinnosuke doesn't understand. You dare to murder Hatake Sakumo from the same village. What about the future? Murder me? Murder other people in the village?"

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen talking openly and honestly with him, Tatsuma didn't bother to do so many Tai Chi with him, and directly expressed his worries, or the things he had seen Danzo do.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned, thinking of Danzo's attitude towards Tatsuma, he wanted to explain to his best friend, saying that Danzo would definitely not take action against Tatsuma.

But he didn't say it, because it only took him a moment to realize that Danzo would not take action against Tatsuma, but it did not mean that he would not continue to take action against others.

Moreover, Danzo's preferential treatment to Tatsuma was because Tatsuma had never really harmed Danzo's interests. Hiruzen Sarutobi was very aware of Danzo's obsession.

If Danzo were to know that Danzo was not included in his vision for the future of the village, but that he would continue to be in power for ten years and then directly delegate power to Tatsuma's generation.

At that time, Danzo and Tatsuma had a direct conflict of interest. It was hard to say whether Danzo would give Tatsuma preferential treatment.

At this stage, Hatake Sakumo may be the only one who is harming Danzo's interests and blocking his steps, but what about in the future? Let’s not talk about Tatsuma’s generation of young people, let’s talk about Hatake Sakumo’s generation.

If his disciples, the Sannin, have grown to the point where Danzo feels like an eyesore, will Danzo take action against his disciples? Or maybe one day Danzo will feel that even he, the Hokage, is hindering his progress.

"Ah~"

Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a long sigh, and then asked: "Then how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"Hokage-sama, do you want to punish him with a small amount of punishment, or do you want to clean up the family?"

"Danzo. After all, it is thanks to Konoha."

Tatsuma understood, but Hiruzen Sarutobi still couldn't bear it after all. After watching Hiruzen Sarutobi bend down and refill himself with tea, Tatsuma took a sip of the tea in a dignified manner, and then said:

"After all, Hatake Sakumo-sama has not really entered the situation yet, and has not really been murdered by Gen. It is indeed difficult to use the purpose to deduce the sentencing."

Before Tatsuma could finish speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression softened. Tatsuma's words directly set the tone.

Danzo or Nene does have the intention to murder Hatake Sakumo, and is already making preparations. The purpose of murdering his companions is confirmed, but Hatake Sakumo is not dead yet.

Before things happen, we can't directly determine whether Ne's plan will succeed or whether Hatake Sakumo will die because of it. It may be an attempt or it may be terminated. Although the probability is almost zero, it is also possible that Danzo suddenly changes his mind. Join forces with Hatake Sakumo to build a beautiful Konoha.

Therefore, it is indeed not possible to use purpose to retrograde sentencing!

This tone was set, and the punishment Danzo would receive next was actually within the acceptable range.

Tatsuma was a little disappointed when he saw the change in Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, but he had no other way to attack Danzo except with the help of Sarutobi Hiruzen's power. Even if the result was unsatisfactory, he could only continue to say:

“However, there is no doubt that Shimura Danzo had the intention to murder his colleagues, and under his control, the party was ruthless and became the evil hand extended by Shimura Danzo to his colleagues.

Therefore, I suggest that we should take back control of Root, and at the same time restrict Danzo Shimura's actions, and keep him under observation. If he realizes his mistake, he can continue to serve the village.

Of course, this is just my suggestion. I think how to do it depends on your thoughts, Mr. Hokage, and the thoughts of the person involved. "

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who kept nodding his head, frowned, not because Tatsuma called Danzo by his first name, but because Tatsuma suggested it. He said, "Tell Sakumo? But isn't this going to intensify? Are there any conflicts between the two of you?"

"Wouldn't that be better?"

"What's better?"

"Let Lord Sakumo become a sword hanging over Danzo Shimura's head."

After Tatsuma finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen instantly understood and was a little moved. Tatsuma saw the opportunity and added: "Besides, does Hokage-sama think it is Shimura Danzo or Sakumo-sama who is obedient?"

"Of course it's Sakumo who cares about the overall situation."
