In the Konoha Hokage's office, Danzo was extremely sad while holding a meeting of the Big Four.

Because the war was going smoothly, the Third Hokage had no intention of re-employing Danzo.

Each piece of good news was like a death warrant, striking directly at Danzo’s young and fragile heart.

At first he thought that the Three Kingdoms coalition was fighting against the Fire Kingdom alone, and even if Konoha could win it would only be a pyrrhic victory.

So before and at the beginning of the war, he sat back and did not only turn a blind eye to the olive branch extended by the Third Hokage, but also gave him the cold shoulder.

It can be said that although Danzo did not make trouble behind his back (because he felt that it was unnecessary, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely not be able to cope with it and would turn around and beg him for help humbly), it can also be said that he was useless.

But when the Second World War just started, Iwagakure lost three thousand heads, which confused him. However, he still pretended to be cool and didn't care about anyone, because he felt that the Third Tsuchikage would definitely find a way to get back at them.

Things turned out just as he expected. The five thousand Rock Ninjas once again entered the Rain Country to fight Konoha to the death, and the two sides fell into a brutal war of attrition.

After receiving the news, Danzo happily went back and prepared two cups of wine that he had stolen from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

At the same time, news came from the First Unit that due to the strangeness of Chiyo's poisons, Orochimaru could not win a quick victory. He could only wait for Tsunade to break all of Chiyo's poisons before he could wait for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle. As a result, Konoha and the Sand Ninja also fell into a war of attrition.

Danzo drank a whole bottle of Wuliangye that day and got drunk for the first time in his life.

But what happened afterwards was a little out of control.

On the first battlefield.

Tsunade demonstrated with her strength what it means to be the God of Milk descending to earth. No matter what kind of poison Chiyo used, Her Highness the Princess could break it in time.

Not only that, Tsunade retaliated by poisoning Chiyo, which made her extremely anxious. As a result, more Sand Ninjas were poisoned to death.

Even worse news came from the second battlefield.

After more than two months of refueling battle, the two sides launched a fierce decisive battle.

Not only was the Rock Ninja Base bombed, but the Four-Tails Jinchuriki were all killed, so Duanmu had no choice but to temporarily retreat.

The situation in Konoha is very good right now. Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in the Hokage's office for a meeting, was in an even better mood. Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu also smiled, especially Utane Koharu, whose eyes were originally small and now they were reduced to a line.

But Danzo looked as if his mother had died, his face so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it.

Utatane Koharu spoke first: "At present, we have the initiative in the war. Hiruzen, I still think we should not change our defense and stop the battle. We should continue to increase our troops to expand our victory and kill the Rain and Sand Ninjas."

This old woman doesn't seem like a good person. She has a very bad heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Forget it. If the war escalates, the Tsuchikage and Kazekage might be there in person.

The Kazekage is okay, but that guy Ōnoki is too difficult to deal with. If Hanzo of the Salamander directly joins the battle, the Konoha ninjas will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Our ultimate goal is not to invade other countries, and there is no need to fight to the death with the three countries. For now, we should propose negotiations and end the war as soon as possible."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen said this, Utane Koharu closed her eyes and said no more, but she still felt a little unhappy inside.

Hiruzen has more and more worries as he gets older. He has completely lost the sharpness of his youth. Such a good opportunity is actually wasted. He doesn't even think about the fact that if the Iwagakure joins the war again, the losses may be even greater. After all, whether the war escalates is not something that the Fire Nation can decide alone.

If the Second Hokage were alive today, he would definitely add insult to injury and even seal the manhole cover for you.

Mitomon Yan wanted to persuade them, but Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his hand to stop him, "Okay, let's do what we just discussed. Yan will prepare for the negotiations and be responsible for hosting the Four Nations Conference to see if we can reach a truce agreement."

Mitomon En nodded in agreement.

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued, "Of course, we must also be prepared to continue fighting if the negotiations break down. You, Koharu, will be fully responsible for the subsequent mobilization of strategic materials and personnel."

Utane Koharu also obeyed the order.

"Okay, let's break up the meeting."

Danzo left the meeting room without saying a word.

The Third Hokage, who was secretly very happy, was left alone in the Hokage's office.

In fact, since the war began, except for the first two meetings that Danzo attended, he skipped all the others, either because of a headache or eye pain, and was just waiting for the Third Hokage to beg him humbly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen forced Danzo to come to this meeting, for no other reason than to show off in front of him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't say a word to Danzo the whole time, and didn't even look at him, just embarrassed him.

He used this meeting to tell Danzo not to take himself too seriously, that Konoha would be the same with or without him, he would still beat up the Sand Ninjas and the Rock Ninjas.

Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly drank the wine that Xuanwu gave him, and he was so happy that he took off. "Speaking of which, this little guy Xuanwu is really capable. He actually killed the Four-Tails Jinchuriki. How should I reward him when he comes back this time?"

......

After returning home, Danzo went completely berserk, transformed into a husky, and tore everything around him to pieces.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen! You forced me to do this!"

Danzo left the village overnight and rushed to the Land of Rain.

......

In a huge secret base deep underground.

The half-black, half-white unknown creature was reporting to an old man the intelligence he had collected in the past few days.

"At present, the Rock Ninja has completely withdrawn from the Rain Country. The Third Tsuchikage was furious after receiving the news. He is gathering ninjas and once again asking the Daimyo of the Land of Earth for war supplies. It is obvious that he does not want to give up.

The Kazekage of the Land of Wind is afraid that Konoha will launch a large-scale war, and is also secretly increasing its troops. The number of Sand Ninjas that have entered the Land of Rain has exceeded three thousand.

Hanzo of the Rain Country's Salamander is still hiding in his hole.

But I don't know what the Third Hokage was thinking. He didn't take the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack on the Sand and Rain Ninjas. It seems that he wants to negotiate a ceasefire."

The old man sitting on the stone bench showed a deep disdain on his face and said, "The Hokage of Konoha is really getting worse and worse. When Hashirama was in office, no country dared to act rashly.

Although Senju Tobirama's strength is not that great, he at least has the courage to lead the troops and fight to the death.

When it comes to this monkey, he is in a very advantageous position but only wants to stop the war and seek peace. He is really confused.

The ninjas of Konoha are now just a bunch of ragtag people, and even a few small countries can't handle them. It's really disappointing."

As he was saying this, the old man suddenly burst into a violent cough, which lasted for a long time before he stopped. He was too weak now.

After the old man's breathing stabilized, the black and white creature spoke again, "We also found something interesting, about that Qiu Dao Xuanwu."

Hearing this name, the old man didn't know what he was thinking of, and actually showed a hint of nostalgia, but he quickly hid it.

He asked, "What happened to this little devil?"

All the old man's emotions were captured by the black half of the black and white creature, including his fleeting warmth. The black creature revealed a faint sneer.

The white one rushed to say, "The Akimichi Genbu's Sharingan has already opened to the Mangekyō stage. At least one of its abilities is related to space. It can even transfer the Tailed Beast Balls. And I also found that the shape of his Mangekyō is very similar to yours and Izuna-sama's."
