Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 40: The Nine-Tailed Fox that has been passed down from generation to generation, aren’t you afraid?

Of course the Konoha ninjas were not blind, but someone asked them to pretend to be blind.

"Two advisors, please stay here until everything is over."

In the Hokage Building, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu looked at the ninjas surrounding them and sighed deeply.

As soon as Sarutobi left, Danzo's men arrived, as if the two had made an appointment.

The biggest problem is that these ninjas who stopped them... are from the ninja clan that supports them!

The surrounding Anbu had also arrived, but they didn't dare to take action without their orders.

A jonin said to the two advisors, "Danzo-sama has received news that the Third Hokage asked Tsunade to research a way to break the caged bird. It should be almost sent to the Hyuga side by now."

"What did Danzo do to Tsunade?!" Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En widened their eyes, "Tsunade must not be in any danger!"

"We know, and that person knows too, so don't worry."

Another Jonin said in a low voice: "Tsunade is the princess of Konoha, the princess of the Land of Fire. We will not attack her."

"We don't need much, but the things that the first generation promised us have been gradually taken back as the first generation died and the government disappeared."

"And now, what does the Sandai want to do? Uproot us?"

Most of the ninja clans identify themselves not with the Hyuga branch family, but with the Hyuga main family. The branch family is just a servant of the main family, and they have long been accustomed to this.

What did the third generation want to do by studying the art of breaking the caged bird? To destroy the Hyuga clan?

Then... after destroying the Hyuga clan, should we take action against them?

"Huruzen would not do this. You should know that the ninja clan cannot be destroyed. He released the caged bird because he was probably on guard against Danzo."

Utatane Koharu shook her head with a complicated look in her eyes, "When a civilian ninja becomes powerful, he will leave behind his powerful secret techniques. His descendants will grow up with these secret techniques, and a clan of secret techniques ninja will gradually be formed."

"The Bloodline Ninja Clan has a place in the Ninja world by virtue of its unique bloodline inheritance. As long as the bloodline exists, there will be a day when they will rise again, and it will be even more difficult to destroy them. So... as long as ninjas exist, the Ninja Clan will never disappear!"

"But only when the old ninja clans die out can new ninja clans have the soil and space to be born."

An old figure appeared in the scene, causing Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En to frown, "Elder Sarutobi?"

The other party is Masaaki Sarutobi, the elder of the Sarutobi clan who supports them.

"You two, Hiruzen is weakening the power of the Sarutobi clan. He has brought two-thirds of the Sarutobi clan's forces to the front line. But according to the information Danzo gave me, that is not a place where ordinary ninjas can survive."

"He also pushed Minato, a civilian ninja, to the top. Add to that the incident with the Hyuga clan, and we can't trust him."

All three incidents were direct or indirect attacks on the ninja clan. If they don't fight back, perhaps it will be the turn of one of them next time.

Upon hearing this, Utane Koharu and Mitokado En looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

Sarutobi Masaaki leaned on his cane and stared at the two of them with cloudy eyes, "And you should understand that if the Hokage has enough power and remains in office for one day, his family will be the strongest ninja clan in Konoha."

"Namikaze Minato is very young and very powerful. With Hiruzen paving the way for him, he will be able to stay in the position of Hokage for a very long time. And the child of him and Uzumaki Kushina will undoubtedly be a genius, and a genius who will inherit the Uzumaki bloodline!"

"You know better than me how terrifying the Uzumaki bloodline is. They are the only ones who are the best candidates for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and the Nine-Tails... will be passed down from generation to generation in their clan!"

The scene described by Sarutobi Masaaki rushed into their minds. The two consultants felt a chill coming from all directions and their brows frowned instantly.

What the old man said was not alarmist, but something that could actually happen.

Rather than searching for the remnants of the Uzumaki clan in the ninja world, it would be better for Kushina's children and descendants to serve as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

No one can tell exactly how many Uzumaki clan members are left in the ninja world, and no one can guarantee that these Uzumaki clan members brought back will not side with Minato and Kushina because of their care, thereby accelerating the strength of the Namikaze lineage in disguise.

Kushina's descendants were born in Konoha, so they are naturally familiar with the place and can be taught from an early age and trained as future jinchūriki.

But then a terrible thing will happen, Konoha's strongest power will always be in the hands of Minato Namikaze's descendants!

Minato's personality may not allow him to have such thoughts, but no one can guarantee that his descendants will have the same thoughts as him.

By then, what would Uchiha, Hyuga, and Sarutobi be compared to the Namikaze lineage that holds the Nine-Tails?
Moreover, this Namikaze has a close relationship with the Uchiha and Hyuga branches...

"Hruzen has crossed the line. He is draining Sarutobi's power, but he is creating Konoha's strongest ninja clan. We are all from that era and we know the power of Uchiha Madara."

"Minato is close to the Uchiha, so there is a good chance that his descendants will marry into the Uchiha clan. If one day, a being with eyes like that is born, and is also the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, there will be no second First Hokage in Konoha who can stop him, and he can do whatever he wants."

"Do you really want to watch Minato gain a firm foothold, let Konoha do whatever it wants, and watch the descendants of Namikaze Minato stand at the top of the ninja world?"

Utane Koharu and Mitomon En were struggling, but they were actually somewhat persuaded. Minato would definitely not let his offspring suffer the same treatment as Kushina, his son would be the son of the Hokage and the descendant of a hero.

Without the label of Jinchūriki, which represents both power and danger, and with the identity of being the descendant of the Fourth Hokage, how will future high-level officials use various means to control Jinchūriki?

Using shady means is no longer effective. The longer Minato serves as Hokage, the better the influence he will have on future generations, and the more difficult it will be for Konoha's top brass to take action in the future.

Can't you just rely on feelings like Minato did?
Minato's descendants may not buy into this, and no one who has reached this position believes in feelings.

The worry that Mingzheng mentioned is likely to become a reality. Without the negative influence of the Jinchūriki's identity, it is possible that Konoha will be controlled by Namikaze forever.

No generation of Hokage can ignore the Namikaze clan, which has the identity of the fourth generation and possesses the Nine-Tails.

Because that represents Konoha's strongest power!

Compared to Sarutobi, Namikaze has more potential to become the new Senju...

Even if there is only one person on the other side!

The two didn't want this to happen, and their families would not allow it.

However, the trust that Minato and Hiruzen gave them before they left made them feel tormented, and they were unable to express their agreement for a while.

Seeing this, the people behind Sarutobi Akimasa exchanged glances and smiled.

As expected of Elder Mingzheng, he easily convinced the advisor who is now in charge of Konoha's affairs.

If these two agree, there will be no obstacles to the next step.

"That kind of eye is not just a possibility, it has already been born."

Following these cold words, Danzo walked through the crowd and came in front of the two advisors.

"Just now, an Uchiha ninja with a Mangekyō helped Tsunade overcome her fear of blood."

Everyone present was stunned at first, and then their expressions changed drastically.

"The third generation still has such a backup plan?"

"Are there any surviving Uchiha ninjas who can open their eyes?"

"Tsunade plus the Mangekyō... such a combination..."

Danzo looked at this group of rabble and sneered in his heart.

If I didn't need you guys...

“Koharu, En, and Hiruzen obviously forgot about the sensei’s warning against the Uchiha, and even hid from us the birth of the Mangekyō among them.

The power stored in those Mangekyō can rewrite Tsunade's will, allowing her to overcome her fear of blood, and perhaps even make us obey his orders.

Do you really want to stand on Hiruzen's side? It's not appropriate for the Fourth Hokage to become Hokage! "

Although he realized from the fact that Shin left directly that the other party had nothing to do with Hiruzen, Danzo would not let go of this bargaining chip.

Danzo's whisper became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En sighed at the same time, and the former asked, "Tell me, what do you need us to do?"

It wasn't difficult to verify the Mangekyo thing, so there was no need for Danzo to deceive them.

The fact that they concealed such a secret shows that the third generation does not trust them.

"Give me the command of the Anbu first."

While Danzo was carrying out his plan, on the Hyuga side, the Hyuga main family also received news from Danzo.

Also included is the cleavage spell and several bottles of cleavage-assisting potions.

In the conference room, the elders of the clan looked at the splitting spells and potions on the table and looked at each other in bewilderment.

After a long while, the second elder said in a cold voice: "What a Sarutobi Hiruzen! He even asked you, the clan leader, to be wary of Danzo. Now it seems that he is the one we should be most wary of!"

"It's pointless to discuss this matter at this time. Let's solve the splitting technique first. Tsunade can definitely make this kind of potion again. She knows the technique herself. We need to think of a way to make the technique ineffective."

The Great Elder said calmly, and looked at the calm Hyuga Hiashi, the chief, and asked, "Does the clan leader have any ideas?"
