Naruto: My Progress in Konoha

"Trash! They're all trash!"

the next day.

early morning.

In Gen's headquarters base, Danzo looked at the information in his hand and became furious.

This is the news that just came from the East Coast Frontline Command, saying that although the support troops were attacked, they suffered heavy losses.

However, the target persons, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Qingmei, both arrived at the headquarters safely.

If that's all, that's it.

The key is Qing Ming’s strength

According to the available information, the majority of the special jounin and jounin who supported the ambush in this ambush were killed by the opponent.

Among them, there are even two of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

This kind of strength has already made Danzo feel troublesome, even afraid!

"hateful!"

Danzo cursed again, then looked down at the root ninja who was kneeling on one knee, and said, "Has Team Ryoma not been contacted yet?"

"Lord Qi, not yet."

Just as the root ninja below replied, there was a knock on the door.

Dong Dong Dong~

Upon hearing this voice, Danzo said directly: "Come in!"

Immediately, someone pushed the door open and entered.

This person came to Danzo, stretched out his hand and handed over a warrant, and said: "Sir, someone from the ANBU just came and sent a warrant from the Hokage, asking you to go to the Hokage's office immediately."

Danzo glanced at the warrant in the visitor's hand and sneered: "Huh, come to me now, are you going to pretend to be a good person again?"

······

Half an hour later.

Inside the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting behind his desk, holding a pipe in his mouth and smoking continuously. At the same time, he held a report in his hand and frowned.

Bang~

The door to the office was pushed open directly, and a figure walked in.

Without looking, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew who was coming. No one except Danzo would break in without knocking on this door.

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could ask, Danzo was the first to speak: "Hiruzen, what do you want from me? I'm still busy!"

Hearing Danzo's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, took off the pipe from his mouth, and asked in a deep voice: "Duanzo, don't you have anything to tell me?"

"matter?"

However, upon hearing these slightly questioning words, Danzo ignored them completely and pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "What's the matter?"

"snort!"

Seeing Danzo's attitude, Sarutobi Hiruzen snorted coldly, threw the report in his hand on the desk, and asked: "Explain this to me."

Hearing this, Danzo picked up the report, glanced at it briefly, and said nonchalantly: "Isn't it just that the defense line was breached? Is there any explanation?"

"Danzo!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was furious and asked directly: "You dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?"

"I"

Hearing this, Danzo opened his mouth and was about to say yes, but after seeing the angry eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he lowered his head.

Reluctantly, he explained: "Don't worry, Hiruzen, I can be 100% sure that those fog ninjas can only break through that one gap, and there will definitely be no trouble in the future."

There was silence in the office.

"Why!"

After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed softly and said: "Forget it this time, I don't want to see similar things happen again, Danzo, do you understand?"

"snort!"

Danzo snorted coldly, without saying any words of assurance.

There was nothing Sarutobi Hiruzen could do about this.

The office fell into silence again, leaving only the sound of Sarutobi Hiruzen smoking.

Bata~bata~

Phew~~~

He exhaled a long stream of smoke and said again: "Okay, this matter is over. Let's talk about the second matter."

"The second thing?"

Danzo's heart was moved, but he still pretended to be confused and said: "What's the matter?"

"Hmph! What's the matter?"

Seeing that Danzo was still pretending to be dumbfounded with him, Sarutobi Hiruzen took out another report, threw it to Danzo, and said, "Can you explain to me what happened to these five people?"

Hearing this, Danzo quickly took the report and read it carefully.

After a moment, he cursed secretly: "You are really a waste!"

There are photos and autopsy reports of these five people.

Although his body was charred and he couldn't tell his specific appearance, identifying a ninja's identity was not the only way to rely on these.

Compared with the appearance that can be easily changed, the traces of secret medicine and curse marks left on the body can better illustrate a person's identity.

And it just so happened that these marks on these five people were all consistent with the method of cultivating ninjas from root tissue.

There is no doubt that they are the ninjas of the Root Organization.

This is also the reason why ANBU ninjas are required to die without leaving corpses when performing missions, because the enemy can easily determine their origins through the marks on the corpses.

Unfortunately, Aburame Ryoma and others died too suddenly, and there was no time to activate the backup plan, so the bodies were ultimately kept.

That's right, the five people in the report that Sarutobi Hiruzen produced were none other than Aburame Ryoma and his four subordinates.

The evidence was all in front of him, so Danzo simply stopped acting, threw away the report, and said, "Nothing, just sending a few people to deal with dangerous elements."

"Dangerous person?"

After hearing what Danzo said, Sarutobi Hiruzen slapped the table and shouted: "Uchiha is a member of Konoha, not a dangerous person!"

"No? Haha~"

Danzo chuckled twice, pointed to the first report, and said: "Huruzen, you look at the battle record of the two guys in it, especially that Uchiha Qingming, dare you say they are not a threat to the village?"

"."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless for a long time before he said: "They are Konoha's jonin, and they have been fighting for Konoha all the time"

"Enough!"

However, before Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, Danzo interrupted loudly: "Huruzen, don't be naive, now is a war time, of course they have to fight for Konoha, but what about later?"

"Who can guarantee that they won't rebel?"

"Don't forget, how did that person leave the village?"

Speaking of that person, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but shudder.

Then, his mind recalled the horrible scene he saw in his childhood.

That tall figure like a god is not something that mortals can resist at all, and only the first generation of adults can compete with it.

But now, the first generation is dead. If another Uchiha Madara comes, will the village still have the power to check him?

Behind the hazy smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed.

But in the end, he still said: "Danzo, you think too much. Whether it is that person or the first generation, they are special. It is impossible for anyone to reach their height."

"Really?"

Danzo asked back, without commenting.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone also eased, saying: "Now is a war period. Your previous proposal to concentrate the Uchiha ninjas in the battlefields of Kirigakure and Sand Village has caused dissatisfaction among many Uchiha ninjas. Don't act privately next time."

"Hehe~"

Danzo heard this, chuckled twice, turned around and left the office without saying anything.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly said: "Huruzen, you are the light of the village, I am the darkness of the village, and I will not let go of any existence that may threaten the village."

After that, he left the office without looking back.

Watching his departing figure, Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the first report again and looked at the record of Uchiha Qingming's battle record. He looked puzzled.

At this moment, no one knew what he was thinking?
