Shinobi: I'm Really a Supportive Ninja

Chapter 42 Heroes and Hypocrites.

Konoha, roots.

"Danzo, how long has it been since we had a good talk?"

The reason why Shimura Danzo left Orochimaru's secret testing base in a hurry was naturally because of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

How could this guy suddenly visit the roots so late?

Isn't it that Sarutobi Hiruzen is not afraid that he will assassinate him at the root, and then take advantage of the opportunity to take the position of Hokage?

But complaints are complaints. After the complaints, even if Shimura Danzo was given 100 courages, he would not dare to assassinate Sarutobi Hiruzen at the root.

"Humph, I don't know!" Shimura Danzo turned his head, but then there was a look of reminiscence in his eyes, "Probably after winning the first ninja war, when we had differences of opinion, we never spoke seriously..."

"Yes, you have your ideals, and I have my persistence." Hiruzen Sarutobi found a place to sit down, "But differences of opinion are not the reason for you to let Konoha engage in internal strife!"

"Oh, I knew that when you came to see me today, you had no intention of having a good talk with me!"

Shimura Danzo showed a true expression, "Are you trying to use your Hokage power to suppress me again? But I haven't done anything inappropriate recently."

"It's nothing extraordinary, and I don't intend to talk to you as Hokage this time." Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled faintly, "Danzo, do you still remember Kagami?"

"Him?" Shimura Danzo was stunned for a moment, and then the details of his relationship with Uchiha Kagami when he was young emerged in his mind, "Why are you mentioning that guy?"

"Because the mirror represents that the teacher's attitude towards the Uchiha clan has changed, and he is ready to adopt a gentle policy towards the Uchiha clan."

"Haha, a mirror cannot represent the Uchiha clan at all." Shimura Danzo said disdainfully.

"It does not represent the entire Uchiha clan, but since Kagami became the teacher's disciple, until today, the Uchiha clan has been very peaceful."

"Being calm does not mean having no ambition!" Shimura Danzo insisted, "It was the teacher's biggest failure when he chose you to become Hokage. Your character is too weak. All the turmoil in Konoha was caused by you!"

"I am indeed too weak, that's why I am reluctant to attack you!" Hiruzen Sarutobi stood up, "Danzo, I am here as a friend to persuade you to stop, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what do you want? Kill me? Or kill the entire root!" Shimura Danzo glared at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"I can do it all!" Sarutobi Hiruzen also expressed his thoughts, "Now Konoha is far more powerful than before. There are Sannin, Sakumo, Minato, and some rookies who have not yet grown up!"

"So, stop Danzo and fight for 50 years of peace for Konoha in the future. This is the scene the teacher has always wanted to see."

"Stop dreaming, Hiruzen." Danzo Shimura's tone softened slightly, "Do you think the other four hidden villages will just sit back and ignore Konoha? You shouldn't think that the Third Ninja War will never break out, right?"

"This is inevitable, so... I'm here to advise you to stop." Sarutobi Hiruzen said earnestly, "Leave some energy for Konoha so that we can more easily cope with future crises."

"Instead of trying to persuade me here, wouldn't you think about it, let's take the initiative and forcefully unify the entire ninja world?!" Shimura Danzo said in a high tone, "This is the source of your weakness. If I were to be the Hokage now, If that happens, the entire ninja world will be included in Konoha's territory! All of them, and no one will be left!"

"At that time, there will be no more wars in the ninja world, and you and I will complete the ideal that the teacher has not completed and create a new era in the ninja world!"

"Hiruzen, believe me." Shimura Danzo stretched out his hand towards Sarutobi Hiruzen, "Let us go back to the time when we once joined hands to fight against the enemy. As long as you agree to Konoha's war on the four hidden villages, I can give up my position. Naruto, give up internal friction."

Looking at Shimura Danzo's palm hanging in mid-air, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed hesitation.

"impossible!"

However, after thinking about it for a few seconds, Sarutobi Hiruzen still had no idea of ​​agreeing with Danzo of the Will Village, and he rejected him word for word.

"Ha, this is you, Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

Shimura Danzo looked disdainful, "I don't see any hope for Konoha in your hands. You are weak, passive, and stuck in your ways. This will become Konoha's new label!"

"Your ideas are against the teacher's teachings and against the will of fire!"

"The will of fire?" Shimura Danzo was even more disdainful, "Don't take out things that are meant to deceive children. You pat your chest and ask, have you ever done this?"

"I..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless.

"You have nothing to say, right?" Danzo Shimura unveiled his last fig leaf, "Where have the Senju clan gone? Who is in power in Konoha? Who is your chosen successor? How are you doing?" I don’t need to go into details about choosing a successor, right?”

"That's enough, Danzo!"

"Not enough, far from enough!" Danzō Shimura persisted, "In order to quickly integrate the common people into Konoha, the teacher made sacrifices and asked the Senju clan to give up their surnames and join common people's families.

But what did you do after you became Hokage?

The collection of books of the Senju Clan is in the secret room of your Sarutobi Clan, and in the sealed book you control.

On the battlefield of World War II, the Senju clan was sent to the battlefield to be exhausted, but their descendants could only go to ninja school incognito, learn ordinary ninjutsu, and then disappear from everyone.

You eliminated the influence of the Senju clan on Konoha, pushed the Uchiha clan to the political fringes, and completely consolidated the political status of the Sarutobi clan.

What next? You modified the teacher's will of fire, added your understanding, and gave it your name, making Konoha's will to build the village a plaything in your hands.

And look at the heir you choose.

Hatake Sakumo?

He has enough strength and prestige, but he was once your subordinate, your ANBU minister, and he is a pure ninja. He will definitely adopt your opinions politically. You dare to say that he is not your political extension. ?

Look at Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato, whom you have high hopes for. Do you dare to say that they have no similarities with Hatake Sakumo and that you don't have any selfish motives in them? !

Hiruzen, these are all things you did, so why do you stand on the moral high ground and criticize me at will? !

You and I are the same kind of people!

It's just that you are better at hiding than me, you are more tolerant than me, and you know how to leave a way out for some people! "

"I said, enough!!!" Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted loudly, with a very distorted expression on his face, "You know my situation at that time, with internal and external troubles and an unstable foothold. If I didn't do this, Konoha would There’s a chance it could fall apart again!”

"Haha, haha, hahaha...!" Shimura Danzo also laughed loudly, but more of it was taunting Sarutobi Hiruzen, "You have a reason for doing this, then I also have a reason for doing what I do. , is this wrong?!”

"Don't boast that you are the light of Konoha, you just need to understand that whoever sits in your seat is the light of Konoha!"

"Don't think it's your fault that Konoha has become what it is today. It's the road paved with the bones of the dead on the battlefield!"

"You are just a worm who rests on your laurels, has no intention of making progress, is not good at reform, and enjoys himself wantonly!"

The light in Danzo Shimura's one eye was so bright that it made Hiruzen Sarutobi feel panicked.

"In the face of politics, you should not talk about human morality. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. We will see in the future!" Danzo Shimura issued an expulsion order. "When I became Hokage, no matter what I did, , I will become the light, just like you before!"

"But one thing is clear. I will bring war to Konoha, and let Konoha use the lives of two generations to fight for a unified and war-free country for future Konoha and the ninja world!"

Danzo Shimura's ambition completely exploded at this time. He didn't care about human lives or methods. All he cared about was what he wanted and what he wanted to accomplish.

The confrontation between hypocrites and heroes came to an end in the dark roots.

The future of Konoha is still moving slowly along its inherent trajectory.

But what the two of them didn't know was that Orochimaru's fate had changed, which might have a different impact on Konoha's inherent future.
