Konoha: The King of Souls from Uchiha.

Chapter 214: Figure it out

Danzo returned to the mansion and headed straight to the vault.

After some operations, he opened the vault and stepped inside. Looking at the empty vault, Danzo instantly became stunned.

"what……"

After a while, Danzo woke up and it was strange. His face was ferocious, his one eye was bloodshot, and he roared loudly.

"Who did it?"

"Who did it?"

"I am going to kill you!"

After some venting that made the listener sad and the listener tearful, Danzo wandered around the vault like a hamster that had been stolen from winter food, searching for possible clues with his bloodshot one eye.

But of course I couldn't find it. Uchiha Gen didn't leave any traces, just a clean one.

After a while, Danzo rushed out of the vault like a gust of wind and quickly arrived at a research base deep in the forest behind the mountain.

To put it lightly, if he did not bury his roots in darkness, but was Konoha bathing in sunshine, he would always put Konoha first.

"Danzo, although you are the Hokage's assistant, I am not someone you can accuse casually."

"If you satisfy me in the future, I can support you."

At worst, save a little, but if it's not enough, send the root ninja out to make extra money.

Orochimaru was not frightened, his face remained calm and his tone was indifferent.

"Once a major change occurs, Konoha may be destroyed."

Danzo took the money back to the root vault and personally led people to set up a strict defense system. Firstly, it was to prevent further theft, and secondly, he hoped that the thieves would fall into the trap themselves.

"I think if I become Hokage, Konoha will usher in unprecedented glory!"

And he is not young anymore. Even if he becomes Hokage now, he won't be able to be Hokage for long.

Danzo responded with a cold expression: "Hmph, are you only relieved if you personally take charge?"

Wow...

Danzo was furious, but without evidence, he really couldn't do anything to Orochimaru...

"you……"

Hiruzen was trying to paint a picture for him. No matter how well he did, if Hiruzen said "not satisfied", wouldn't all his previous efforts be wasted?

"If Konoha is left in charge of you, the upcoming peaceful situation is likely to be destroyed. Konoha can no longer withstand the torment."

"If the war breaks out again, even if Konoha wins, it will fall into unprecedented weakness."

And he didn't put himself first, but Konoha and himself were tied for first.

"You are putting yourself first and Konoha second."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was holding a pipe in his mouth with a faint smile on his face, which could easily be misunderstood as gloating.

"No matter who did it, this is a serious dereliction of duty on your part!"

"Honestly, I don't feel comfortable leaving Konoha to you."

"Danzo, you are too selfish and the darkness in your heart is too deep."

As for the cost of living expenses, Danzo is not worried. There is still a sum of money saved in the bedroom. Saving a little should be enough.

"Which ninja in the Leaf Village doesn't have a dream of being Hokage?"

Danzo opened the door of the tea room and closed it, walked to the opposite side of Sarutobi Hiruzen and knelt down, took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice: "Hiruzhan, what do you want from me?"

"I'm busy and don't have time to argue with you."

There was no way, Danzo could only buy something on the street to deal with it, and then ran to Sarutobi Hiruzen's mansion.

Danzo had been dealing with the fact that the treasury had been stolen all morning. He didn't even eat lunch. He was so angry that he was full of anger.

"Take a look at this."

The Shimura clan was considered a wealthy clan during the Warring States Period and was good at wind escape, but the ninjas in this family were generally tough.

"Temporarily." Danzo emphasized with a gloomy expression.

<divclass="contentadv">"Do you want to be Hokage?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked noncommittally.

Danzo was a little moved when he heard this, but he snuffed out the signs in the blink of an eye.

None of the root ninjas could find any clues, so Danzo could only resort to this stupid method.

It is worth mentioning that the Hashirama cell transplantation experiment was indeed not among the experiments tacitly approved by Sarutobi Hiruzen, but was restarted privately by Orochimaru and Danzo.

"Orochimaru, did you steal my money?"

Danzo suddenly had a bad premonition. He picked up the scroll and unfolded it. His heart suddenly went cold...

Danzo's eyes narrowed and he stared directly at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hiruzen, you are really well-informed."

"Hey, why don't you listen when I tell you nicely?"

"The vault at the root was stolen?"

"Stop pretending, it must have been you."

"I will not always occupy the position of Hokage. I will look for a successor during my tenure."

Bastard, there's a mole at the root!

Danzo got angry and said in a cold voice: "Hmph, if you hold on to a small mistake, do you want to hang on?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said, "Danzo, your ideas are too radical."

After waiting for so many years to finally get this opportunity, he didn't want to wait any longer.

Orochimaru, who was wearing gloves for experiments, glanced at Danzo, his face expressionless and his tone indifferent.

"If you really think it was me, please provide evidence."

"You're right, but you can't even manage the roots well. The treasury was stolen. It's really ridiculous!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed and his tone was stern.

"Of course, I'm the Hokage. How can I do this if I don't have good information?"

"I suspect it was Orochimaru who did it. He is the only one who has..."

After some operations, Danzo finally got enough money to support the next allocation.

There was no other way, so Danzo could only leave and go find other members of the Shimura clan to borrow money.

Danzo walked up to Orochimaru and stared fiercely, his tone determined.

When he got off work, the hungry Danzo was ready to go home for dinner, but he received a summons from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"If you don't change, you'll never be Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, then took out a scroll from under the table and placed it gently on the table.

"Only you, the former deputy minister of Roots, have the ability to steal the vaults of Roots."

In the afternoon, Danzo adjusted his mentality and handled the affairs well.

Danzo thought about it and felt that among the people he had offended, only Orochimaru had the ability to steal the root vault and his personal vault.

After three ninja wars, the Shimura clan's population has withered and its strength has declined. Even with Danzo's support now, it can only be considered a medium-sized clan at best.

Seeing Danzo's silence, Sarutobi Hiruzen understood Danzo's thoughts.

"You are so babbling, I don't even know what you are talking about..."

This scroll records that Danzo and Orochimaru continued to study Hashirama cell transplantation experiments in private and traded Hashirama cells.

"I also have selfish motives, and there will be darkness in my heart, but I always put Konoha first."

During the Third War, Danzo secretly hid the Uchiha clan's pair of three magatama sharingan eyes, what he did at the night of the Nine-Tails, and various illegal operations.

Danzo felt angry after hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's scolding and preaching.

It was just that when Hiruzen Sarutobi learned about it and saw that Orochimaru and Danzo did not use his own villagers or foreigners for experiments, he did not immediately take advantage of it and chose not to do anything.

"Indeed, I can only feel at ease if I take charge personally."

Danzo, who is the Hokage's assistant, is naturally the leader of the Shimura clan. If he can save his face and make some money, there is no problem in responding to emergencies.

Everything he did was for himself, but it was also for Konoha!

It's just that the fire is rising, and Danzo, who has been pinched, dare not confront Hiruzen Sarutobi anymore, otherwise Hiruzen Sarutobi will not only remove him from his post, but also deal with him.

Danzo could only relent and expressed his willingness to give up the position of Hokage and support Sarutobi Hiruzen as always.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't go into details.

But when Danzo returned home, he became angrier and angrier. Gradually, anger arose in his heart, and he grew evil in his heart...
