"So, you saw with your own eyes the defeat of Zabuza, the hero of Wave Country?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped the table with one hand and asked in surprise, "The man who did it was wearing a respirator and looked very old?"

"Yes, Lord Hokage." Yi Feng said respectfully.

"How strange." Sarutobi Hiruzen pinched his chin with one hand, looking thoughtful.

Through Yi Feng's description, he quickly identified who defeated Zabuza.

With an old face and wearing a respirator, he defeated the Jonin-level Zabuza with just a few moves. Perhaps the only person in the entire ninja world who meets the requirements is Hanzo of the Salamander, who is known as the "demigod".

But, this is incomprehensible!

As the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, he went to the Land of Waves to rob a transportation company? This old guy is bored at home, so he wants to go out and do some transportation, right?

And Zabuza Momochi is quite outrageous!

The rebel ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, famous for assassinating the Mizukage, unexpectedly became a hero of the Land of Waves...

If he had not received the secret report from the spy and the evidence from the young man in front of him, he would not have believed such a fantastic thing!

The small country of Bo has become a place full of hidden talents!

"I warned you to hurry up beforehand, so that Hanzo, that bastard, won't get there first." Danzo, who was sitting on the left side of the desk with his head and face bandaged, snorted coldly. "Huruzen, you are still too weak."

"We are the peace-loving Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen signaled with his eyes that there were still Konoha's young seedlings here, so he should be careful to avoid certain words. "I will not easily interfere in the internal affairs of other countries."

"Hmph, hypocrisy." Danzo completely ignored his gaze and said calmly, "If it weren't for the secret forces I planted in the Land of Waves and the flexibility of this kid, we in Konoha would have almost lost everything!"

No, what capital did you invest?

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked strange and frowned, "Did you just say almost?"

"Take it out and let this old guy see it clearly." Danzo looked at Yifeng.

"Yes, Lord Danzo." Yifeng took out a letter of authorization from his arms.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then he took the letter of authorization and looked at it, then he said in astonishment, "This, this is..."

"Sorry, Hokage-sama."

Yi Feng looked apologetic and said respectfully, "Ms. Hui Yu and I used Konoha's name to ask the Wave Country Umbrella Company for a long-term contract. They are willing to apply for a protection contract from us at a price of 40 million taels per year."

This lady codenamed "Gray Feather" is the spy planted by Danzo in the Land of Waves, and is also Konoha's spy stationed in the Land of Waves.

Coincidentally, she was also a disciple trained by Nono U since childhood, and the two had a very deep relationship. Ever since Nono U removed the "Mark of Tongue Eradication" for her, Ms. Hui Yu completely turned to their side.

Danzo naturally didn't know about this, and he didn't even expect Nono to be alive. Seeing his old friend's shocked expression, he immediately smiled happily and said, "You don't have to apologize at all. This is good for our Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing and fell into silence.

If it's good for Konoha, then it's definitely good!

This commission does not even require Konoha to send ninjas to be stationed there, it only needs to provide timely rescue when the "Umbrella Company" encounters a crisis. Seriously speaking, it is equivalent to collecting protection fees while lying down!

Considering the annual revenue of 40 million taels, the self-willed behavior of the young man and the spy "Gray Feather" can be completely ignored.

But what Sarutobi Hiruzen cared about was not this, but the relationship between the boy in front of him and Danzo.

This is outrageous, when did they become so familiar with each other?

"There's one more thing I forgot to tell you, Hiruzen." Danzo raised his head proudly and said calmly, "Xiao Lin Yifeng will be my Root member from now on."

"What did you say?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Danzo, then turned his gaze to Yifeng who lowered his head and said nothing. His brows were deeply furrowed, and his face gradually darkened. "Danzo, he's still just a student of the Ninja School!"

"Humph, you and I would have already followed the Second Generation into the battlefield when we were his age!" Danzo sneered, "Age is never a problem. The key lies in talent! Obviously, this kid has talent. He completed his first mission very well!"

"I don't agree." Sarutobi Hiruzen said firmly, "Yifeng must complete his studies first. This is the bottom line."

In his opinion, Yi Feng must have been coerced, otherwise he would never have gotten close to someone like Danzo!

This guy is such a bastard!

Konoha has been recuperating for so many years, and finally a good seedling has appeared. How can it enter such a dark place like the roots!

As the Hokage, he would never allow that!

"Hiruzen, you..." Danzo was about to lose his temper, but he seemed to have thought of something, and finally snorted coldly and said: "Okay, then let's do as you say."

After saying this, he shook his sleeves and stood up to leave.

"If Danzo forces you to do anything, come and tell me." Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that it was the time when he summoned Yifeng alone that made Danzo interested in him, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

"It's okay, Hokage." Yi Feng obviously anticipated his thoughts and comforted him softly, "Don't blame you, this is my own choice."

Although he said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen still caught a glimpse of bitterness in his eyes.

This made him even more certain that the young man in front of him was definitely being forced, and his inner dissatisfaction with Danzo became even stronger.

My old friend, you've crossed the line!

The sun sets in the west, and the setting sun is brighter than blood.

Yi Feng walked out of the Hokage's office and turned to the training ground on the south side of Konoha.

Danzo emerged from the shadows and asked calmly, "What did the old man tell you?"

"Hokage-sama asked me to stay away from you." Yi Feng said frankly.

"Humph, you are still so hypocritical." Danzo sneered and said, "Xiao Lin Yifeng, you are a smart man. And what we need in the Root is smart people."

"I understand, Lord Danzo." Yi Feng's face was full of respect.

Danzo showed a satisfied expression on his face and said calmly: "I plan to accept you as my disciple. What do you think?"

This was not a whim, but he really wanted to accept a disciple in order to surpass his old friend Sarutobi Hiruzen.

That guy has three disciples who are all famous in the ninja world. This has made Danzo envious for a long time, but he has never found a suitable candidate.

There are many qualified ninjas in the Root, but none of them can reach the level of "Three Ninjas".

The appearance of the young man in front of him gave him hope.

He defeated the "Chuunin" Mizuki before graduating from the Ninja School, and his brain is also flexible enough. Such talent is definitely the best choice, and is not much inferior to the original three ninjas.

As soon as Danzo finished speaking, the golden option interface in front of Yifeng opened.
