Chapter 259 Shimura, Black Pot, and Danzo’s Ambition!
Konoha, Hokage Building, inside the Hokage's office.
"Danzo, you are finally willing to crawl from the ground-"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the last companion who walked into the office. He wanted to make a joke, but when he saw the other person's appearance clearly, those ridiculing words were ignored. He swallowed it directly.
Gray-white bandages wrapped most of Danzo Shimura's head, including his right eye, leaving only the left half of his cheek exposed.
The left arm, which is very important to a ninja, was carried by Shimura Danzo in his robe, just like the broken right hand of those seriously injured patients who had no choice but to hang it.
Although Shimura Danzo did not show any abnormal state while walking, but relying on that crutch alone, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kadoen, and Kaden Koharu would not think that the other party was really fine.
"Danzo, if the injury is too serious, you should take a good rest for a while."
Sarutobi Hiruzen twirled his beard and ignored the teasing topic just now.
"The war on the front line has completely settled down, and you can rest for a while."
"It's not time for me to retire yet!"
Danzo Shimura responded coldly, leaning on crutches and sitting in his exclusive meeting position. .
"I have also received the results of the war in the Kingdom of Tang! The Shadow of Darkness... Ha! What a great contribution!"
In this battle in the Kingdom of Tang.
Konoha almost wiped out all the Kirigakure troops that invaded Yunokuni, eliminated all famous ninjas such as the AB Team, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and even captured very special beings such as the Three-Tailed Isoho and the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki. .
From Konoha's standpoint, "High-Level F4" felt excited about this brilliant result.
However, these few are not without a little bit of regret, even fear.
In the early stages of the war, Konoha is weak, and everyone in the village must work together to fight the enemy.
But now the war situation has reversed.
Kumogakure damaged the AB combination, and Iwagakure and Kirigakure damaged the Five-Tails, Three-Tails and large-scale combat troops respectively.
It can almost be said that Konoha holds the "fruit of victory" of the Third Ninja World War with half a hand.
Under such circumstances, it is inevitable that Konoha's senior officials will have some unrest.
What confused Sarutobi Hiruzen and others was none other than the dark shadow mentioned by Shimura Danzo!
Nara Langui's contribution in the Third Ninja War is really too great!
So much so that Hiruzen Sarutobi had an inexplicable delusion - if Nara Langui was not promoted to the throne of the Fourth Hokage after the war, the whole of Konoha would not agree.
However...
how could Sarutobi Hiruzen be willing to let a ninja from the Nara clan become the Fourth Hokage?
Regarding the competition between the Fourth Hokage, there are already signs in Konoha Village.
Sarutobi Hiruzen liked the yellow flash to be the fourth generation Hokage. With his bright roots, strong strength and prestige, he was the perfect candidate for the next generation of Hokage.
Shimura Danzo secretly supports Orochimaru. In terms of identity, status, and strength... except for popularity, Orochimaru is almost as good as Namikaze Minato.
As for the other candidates, Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hizashi... they are all just running around.
Before the dark shadow rose like a comet.
Almost all ninjas who knew the top-secret information that "Hokage is about to be replaced" concluded that the fourth generation of Hokage would be born between Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru.
But who made Nara's rise so fast? And his military exploits are too solid?
After the Battle of Yu no Kuni, the military exploits of Nara Rengui alone were almost equal to those of Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru combined!
It is true that when it comes to the number and frequency of completing high-level tasks, Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru will definitely surpass Nara Langui.
But no matter how many S-level or A-level missions there are.
Can it be bigger than reversing the tide of the war? Can it be bigger than capturing the Five-Tails, Three-Tails and Eight-Tails?
It's not that Namikaze Minato and Orochimaru are not strong.
Nara Langui is really too strong!
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting above the Hokage, felt a little frightened by the power of the dark shadow.
Not to mention the two elders Mito Kaden and Koharu, who had had a direct conflict with Nara Langui... '
Haha...'
Shimura Danzo's left single eye lightly glanced at the old faces of the other three people, and said The changes in the expressions of these people were all visible.
'I knew that I was not the only one who was afraid of that boy Nara Langui...'
If at the beginning, Shimura Danzo's view of Nara Langui was just that he "wanted to use him for his own purposes." .
So later on, Nara Langui's fame became more and more popular, especially after recapturing the Five-Tails for Konoha.
Shimura Danzo's attitude towards the dark shadow became "I can't wait to get rid of it first and then quickly"!
The power of the Five-Tails is too dangerous.
How could Shimura Danzo safely place such a dangerous tailed beast in the hands of Nara Langui and the Nara clan?
Only the root, only Danzo Shimura, can maximize the power and value of the Five-Tails!
In order to take away the Five-Tails, Shimura Danzo even risked his own life and sought skin from the tiger.
When he was stationed in Yunokuni, Shimura Danzo met the mysterious one-eyed masked man, and successfully reached a temporary cooperative relationship with him.
Danzo Shimura not only provided the one-eyed masked man with a large amount of information about Nara Langui, but also informed him of the shortcomings of the Nara clan's secret techniques.
In order to successfully achieve the strategic plan goal of "killing Nara Langui and taking away the Five-tailed Mu King", Shimura Danzo "sent" him back to Konoha from the front line through the hands of the Third Raikage, and then "sent" Nara Langui back to Konoha through the hands of the Third Raikage. "Arrived at the Country of Tang.
Originally, Shimura Danzo thought that during the Battle of Yuno Kuni, the Nara Guihui Association was really strangled on the battlefield by the third generation Raikage, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure as the mysterious one-eyed masked man said.
Unexpectedly, Nara Langui not only broke the action plan of the one-eyed masked man, but also achieved a brilliant record on the battlefield that no one could find fault with!
Danzo Shimura could not kill Nara Langui, nor could he take away King Mu of the Five Tails.
Before receiving detailed information from the country of Yu, Danzo Shimura originally gave up his plan to deal with Nara Langui.
But what he never expected was.
Although the Five-Tails is gone, Konoha now has a Three-Tails and an Eight-Tails in its hands!
It is said that the more tails a tailed beast has, the stronger it will be...
From Danzo Shimura's point of view, if he had obtained the power of the eight tails, why would he need to worry about Nara Langui?
As for Nara Langui defeating and capturing the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki Rabbi Chi...
Anyway, get the Eight-Tails first!
This is the main goal of Shimura Danzo coming to participate in this meeting.
If eight tails can't do it, three tails can do it too!
All in all, Konoha now has four tailed beasts.
The Kyuubi was firmly controlled by Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Danzo Shimura could not reach it.
But the other eight tails, five tails, and three tails.
As the leader of the Roots and the bearer of Konoha's dark side, Danzo Shimura takes away one or two tailed beasts, isn't that too much?
Shimura Danzo felt there was nothing wrong with his idea.
The only problem is how to convince these old guys...
"Ahem."
Danzo Shimura coughed twice, breaking the silence in the Hokage's office.
"Let's get down to business, Hiruzen."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kadoen, and Koharu, who had gone to bed, nodded in unison.
But after a while of boring words were finished.
The topic of the meeting in the Hokage's office finally came down to "tailed beasts".
"You all know what happened in the Country of Yu. We captured the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki alive, as well as the Three-Tails in the wild."
Hiruzen Sarutobi twirled his beard and said in a deep voice.
"According to the latest information passed back from the front line, Nara Langui has successfully tamed the Three-Tails."
This "latest information" was personally conveyed to Sarutobi Hiruzen by Nara Shikaku, and was not in the control of the other three.
There is no doubt that this information caused an uproar in the office.
"Taming the Three-Tails? Just like taming the Five-Tails?"
Shimura Danzo fell into a brief state of consternation, and soon there was a surge of anger in his heart.
"Why?! The Nara clan has already mastered the Five-Tails, do they still want to master the Three-Tails?! What about the Eight-Tails? Does Nara Langui also want to tame them too?" At the end of the sentence, Shimura Danzo actually
added One sentence.
"Is this the Konoha of his Nara clan, or is it everyone's Konoha?!"
The high-sounding aura can make ordinary people sick.
But Mito Kabuto and Koharu, who had transferred to the dormitory, both believed that Nara Langui's handling method was very inappropriate.
After Shimura Danzo expressed his opinion, these two people didn't even give Sarutobi Hiruzen any room to explain, and just spoke on their own.
"I also think that Nara Langui's handling of the situation was inappropriate. He was not able to subdue the Three-Tails alone."
Mito Kadoyan reluctantly found an excuse.
However, when Xiaochun went to bed, he was throwing bad water in an open and honest manner.
"Haha! He has already captured the Five-Tails, and now he has tamed the Three-Tails. Who knows what that kid will do in the future?" "
That's enough!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen rubbed his brows with a headache.
How come he didn't realize until today that Danzo and the others were so unanimously hostile towards Nara Langui?
"Nara Langui did tame the three-tails, but according to Shikaku's explanation, the reason why the other party tamed the three-tails was to reduce the resistance and hatred of the tailed beast when the three-tails were handed over to the village." Sarutobi Hiruzen explained
. , once again dropped a bomb in the office.
Mito Kadobu adjusted his glasses, "Nara Langui plans to dedicate the Three-Tails to the village?" Koharu
said to himself when he went to bed, "That guy won't be so kind!"
"Hiruzen."
Shimura Danzo took advantage of every opportunity.
"Three tails, I want the root."
