Inside the Hokage Building.
As the acting Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat back in the Hokage's office, frowning and smoking continuously.
He never expected it.
In just one day, Konoha was attacked by the Kyuubi, causing heavy losses in both personnel and fixed assets!
As the Fourth Hokage, Minato was even unconscious, and even his wife was brutally killed!
This series of blows weakened Sarutobi Hiruzen, whose ambition had been tempered by three battles.
Overnight, I aged ten years!
Originally, before this, he led Konoha to victory in World War III.
It has been criticized for giving up the decision to ask for compensation from the defeated countries!
But he chose to abdicate voluntarily.
And timely launch of the most dazzling fighting hero in the three wars, Minato, who perfectly inherited the will of fire and won the support of many civilians and family ninjas, took over!
Only then did he eliminate the negative impact of this matter and let himself land smoothly without losing his reputation.
If it follows the original development.
He just had to leave all the insignificant things to Minato.
He only personally controls foreign-related policies, appointments of high-level officials in Konoha, and important matters involving the balance of interests of various families.
You can successfully ensure that the will of fire in your heart continues to burn in Konoha Village!
Of course, this is not because he is obsessed with the power in his hands and wants to be in charge behind the scenes.
Just in his opinion.
He has been the Hokage for many years, compared to Minato, a young man who is full of vigor for system reform.
His choice will be more in line with the balance of the interests of all parties and more in line with the actual situation of Konoha!
After all, previous wars forced many six- and seven-year-old children to go to the battlefield and make sacrifices!
In this situation where there are a lot of casualties among the new and middle-aged generations.
At this time, the interior of Konoha was extremely empty.
If you are not careful, you will be in catastrophe!
The most important thing at the moment.
It is to maintain peace and stability at all costs.
Give the new batch of infants and young children more time to grow and develop!
As long as Minato does what he wants and completely passes his assessment.
He is also willing to give young people opportunities and will gradually delegate power in three to five years!
By then, Minato will be almost thirty years old and will be more stable mentally.
Then he can resign from the position of great elder, return home to embrace his grandchildren, and enjoy his old age in peace.
But in his opinion, everything that was almost perfect was destroyed overnight!
"Elder Danzo, should you explain why you falsely conveyed an ANBU order last night to restrict Uchiha from participating in the war?"
After a long silence, Hiruzen finally raised his eyes to look at Danzo who had come to the meeting, and asked with a frown.
If Fugaku and the others could help immediately last night, maybe Minato would not have ended up like this!
Neither did Konoha. It will be like now, with heavy damage!
"Hum, monkey, are you blind?"
"You can’t see the big Sharingan pattern in Kyuubi’s eyes?"
"As the Hokage's assistant and the leader of the root"
"I have every reason to suspect that last night's Nine-Tails Rebellion was a premeditated rebellion by the evil Uchiha clan!"
"Don’t forget, whether it was Madara Uchiha who openly defected from the village during the First Generation period, or Setsuna Uchiha who openly led his tribe to launch a coup during the Second Generation period, Uchiha’s desire to rebel has long been known to everyone!"
Facing Hiruzen's question, Danzo snorted and expressed disdain.
He had no choice but to become Hokage. As long as he saw Hiruzen sitting in that position, he would have a belly of evil fire that he wanted to vent!
"How many times have I said that you should address your duties when working!"
Facing Danzo's rude words, Hiruzen punched the table hard, startling the teacup on the table.
"I naturally saw that the Nine-Tails was controlled by someone using the Sharingan."
"But you and I both know that it is impossible for an ordinary three-magatama Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails!"
"The only one who can control the Kyuubi is a Mangekyo like Uchiha Madara!"
"Since the Uchiha elites such as Uchiha Fugaku last night have been under the close surveillance of your root and are stationed in the clan land"
"Then tell me, who else in the Uchiha clan has the potential to open the kaleidoscope?"
Hiruzen retorted unceremoniously.
Unlike before Naruto was reborn, in this life due to Naruto's intervention, Kushina did not die.
Therefore, the image of the mysterious masked man as the attacker is no longer unknown.
And Danzo is in Kyuubi When the attack on the village occurred, they immediately issued an order to restrict all ninjas of the Uchiha clan to the clan area and not participate in the war!
In this case, the suspicion of Fugaku and others, who have been under constant surveillance, will be greatly reduced!
"Great Elder Hiruzen, you have let your guard down too much!"
"Have you forgotten that as early as the Warring States Period, the evil Uchiha secretly brainwashed his own tribe, the genius girl named Uchiha Hikari, into a weapon capable of destroying everything in order to win the war?"
"In the end, it was the Senju clan and your Sarutobi clan who joined forces to successfully seal it!"
"How can you be sure that they won't repeat their same tricks and secretly cause trouble in corners where we can't see them?"
"As the leader of the root, I will never allow any possibility of threatening the existence of the village!"
"After all, everything I did was for Konoha!"
Half of his body was wrapped in bandages, and Danzo hit the ground with his crutches, and spoke angrily.
This time, he did not call the other party a nickname, but in accordance with Hiruzen's requirements, in line with his position.
"Elder Danzo, I can understand your concerns, and I also understand your intentions."
Hearing this, Hiruzen's tone softened unconsciously.
"But you have to understand, Uchiha are Konoha's Uchiha, they are also part of the village"
"Even our teacher, Tobirama-sama, when dealing with the Uchiha coup, only threw the main culprit Uchiha Setsuna into the security department jail, and did not kill him directly."
"Isn't it just hoping to show the generosity of the village and give Uchiha a chance to reflect on himself and integrate into the village?"
"Don't forget our mutual friend, Uchiha Kagami!"
Hiruzen couldn't help but remind him.
In his opinion, Danzo was good in everything except the way he handled things.
He didn't know how to be gentle and win people's hearts.
So he could never be the Hokage and could only hide in the dark and handle those things that Konoha couldn't see the light of day.
Of course, Konoha now also needs someone like Danzo.
Because the Hokage represents Konoha and must rally the people's hearts!
So the image of the Hokage cannot be tarnished, nor can it be stained with a trace of dust!
Therefore, many things must be handled by the Root for him!
This is why.
When Minato just When he wanted to disband the entire Root department as soon as he came to power, and even wanted to settle accounts with Danzo, the leader of the Root, he was ruthlessly rejected by Hiruzen!
In Hiruzen's view, this rash move just confirmed his previous point of view.
That is, Minato is still too young, and his thinking on many government affairs is not mature enough!
Minato thought that the village should be open and aboveboard, and there should not be a dirty department like the Anbu!
How is this possible?
As the former Third Hokage, he knows very well how useful Danzo's Root is!
All the things that the Hokage is not convenient to do���
As long as he gives Danzo a hint, the Root will be dealt with immediately!
How convenient it is!
As the saying goes, where there is light, there is darkness. As the darkness of Konoha, Danzo plays an irreplaceable role!
Minato can't tolerate Danzo's Root, which exposes his immature political thinking and excessive idealism!
Oh~
That's why I couldn't give up power immediately before!
Without his old bones to escort him and point him out.
Let Minato mess around like this, Konoha will definitely be in chaos!
