Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 136 I could have endured the darkness
"Master Danzo, we are back to report. Everything went well on the journey."

Inside the Hokage building, Danzo, feeling that he had found a way to deal with the situation, returned here.

But this time it was different. He hid his roots in the dark again and selected some people from the civilians to enter the Anbu to carry out tasks for him.

Ever since he was suspected of attacking the people from the three clans who entered the Anbu, Danzo has become more concerned about the secrecy of the Root members, and this time he deliberately sent some civilian ninjas out of the village to carry out the mission.

He wanted to see the reactions of Utane Koharu and Mitokado En, and whether they would attack each other like he did.

However, judging from the results, it seems that he guessed wrong. Five days have passed since the three men came to his door, and his men have not suffered any attack.

It seems that the other party has admitted defeat.

hum~
"Yes, this is a reward for you, go down."

Danzo was never stingy when it came to ninjutsu and casually threw out a few scrolls in front of the excited gazes of several people.

"Thank you, Master Danzo!"

Several people were overjoyed, took the scrolls and left.

Although they are already special jonin, or even jonin, most of them were promoted during wartime. Not to mention compared with those jonin of the ninja clan, there is a certain gap between them and their special jonin.

Not only that, the ninjutsu they mastered were all conventional ninjutsu. Just by clapping their hands, others would know what they were going to do. It was really embarrassing for people like them on the battlefield.

They are not needed in simple tasks, and they are just cannon fodder in difficult tasks. The best outcome in their life may be to teach in a ninja school.

That's why they were willing to respond to Danzo's orders even though they knew he had a bad reputation.

Unlike other assistants and family members who often make empty promises, Danzo really gives everything except money.

So between Danzo and other assistants, they could choose Danzo without hesitation.

Several people looked at each other, unable to hide their joy. With these rewards, even if they died in the upcoming turmoil, their descendants would be able to rely on these things to establish a family. If passed down for thirty to fifty years, perhaps they could even establish a small family.

"Danzo-sama should be the Hokage. If I could vote, I would definitely choose Danzo-sama. He is the one that everyone wants!"

As they were sighing, a ninja wearing a mask similar to theirs passed by them and flashed into the Hokage Building.

"This is."

"The rumored roots, right?"

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. It's none of our business. The mission is over. Let's change our clothes and find a place to have a drink."

"Yes, yes, let's go!"

Just as the group was leaving, a Root member came to Danzo with some letters.

Danzo thought for a moment and nodded after reading it, "It's better to leave. Let's pick a few more ninjas to fill their positions."

These were exactly the resignation letters written by the Uchiha ninjas. Under Shisui's order, the eight Uchiha ninjas quickly completed the handover procedures and left the Anbu.

Danzo did not stop them. These eight ninjas stayed behind to occupy the toilet without doing anything. What's more, each of them was very strong. If he wanted to use the same method to deal with them, he would pay a huge price unless he did it himself.

Even if there was any mistake, it would give Uchiha a handle. Ever since he resisted the evil Uchiha and returned to the light, these guys have been watching him, and he can't give Uchiha a reason to take action.

"Yes, Lord Danzo."

After responding, the Root man took out another piece of intelligence and said softly, “Sir, the defense near the Sarutobi tribe’s territory has been strengthened again, and we can’t find any chance.

In addition, it seems that many ninjas from the Utatane and Mitomon clans have secretly left Konoha. After our investigation, we found that some of them had secretly left Konoha as early as after the Third Hokage became seriously ill, but they were very careful in their actions, and we cannot know their purpose. "

Danzo frowned, narrowed his eyes and sighed: "What do they want to do? Can't they just be quiet and let me become the Hokage?"

"Send someone to continue monitoring outside the three families' territory, and report any movement immediately."

"Yes!"

After his men left, Danzo couldn't help but sigh again. As long as Uchiha didn't cooperate, he would send people to investigate what was happening in the village and keep an eye on it at all times, otherwise no one would tell him.

But these things have to be done. He has done so much by judging others by his own standards. How can others tolerate it? If they can tolerate it, it must be because they are holding back on doing something bad.

Do I really need to talk to the Uchiha?
Danzo was in a dilemma, but it didn't last long.

Two days later, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En, who had been silent for a long time, brought Sarutobi Asuma and suddenly sent people to surround the entire Root while Danzo was resting in the Root base, and then summoned all the Anbu.

This action immediately made all the families in Konoha nervous, and all the ninja clans knew that the two sides were finally going to tear their faces apart.

In the Hokage Building, Utane Koharu looked at the four teams of more than 70 Anbu members in the building with a serious expression, and ordered in a low voice: "Danzo has mobilized Anbu members at will, causing heavy losses to the Anbu, seriously endangering the safety of Konoha and damaging the interests of the village. He is no longer suitable to be in charge of the Anbu.

The Sandaime has ordered that all personnel appointment rights of Danzo be revoked immediately except for the Root."

When the order was given, everyone looked at each other, especially the civilian ninjas, who were immediately stunned.

They were born into ordinary families, survived one or two ninja wars and are now quite smart.

They also guessed that there would be competition between the two sides, but they still came for the benefits.

But they never expected that the Sandaime would directly order the restriction of Danzo's power.

However, was this order really issued by the Sandaime?

Everyone looked at Asuma Sarutobi standing nearby, and then had to believe it.

Between Danzo and the two assistants, they will choose Danzo.

What about between Danzo and the Third Generation?
They could only choose three generations, so they immediately bowed their heads and obeyed the order.

At this time, when Danzo learned that Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En had summoned the Anbu, he immediately rushed out with the Root.

The ninjas outside the Root base were unable to stop the angry Danzo, and he easily broke through them and made his way to the bottom of the Hokage building.

When he arrived, the Anbu people were already standing on both sides, including those he promoted, and their intention to distance themselves was very obvious.

"what do you mean?"

Danzo had no idea what was going on. He suppressed his anger and walked towards the two men step by step.

"This is Hiruzen's intention. Hiruzen already knows about your affairs. From now on, except for the Root, you should not interfere in the personnel appointments of various departments and all matters of the Anbu."

"How could Hiruzen give such an order? I want to see Hiruzen!"

Danzo looked at the two men with cold eyes and murderous intent.

"Huruzen is feeling unwell and needs to rest!"

The two looked at each other, and the air around them dropped several degrees. The Root and some Anbu were also confronting each other.

The others lowered their heads and pretended not to see anything.

Seeing this, Mitomon En immediately advised: "Xiaochun, tell me everything."

Utatane Koharu snorted when she heard that, and then added helplessly, "Huruzen also said that you have gone too far in these things, and asked you to put them aside and get familiar with Konoha's political affairs, as there is not much time left before the Jonin Conference."

Hearing this, Danzo's heart sank.

'I was saying, Hiruzen had promised me, how could he do such a thing! I see, I see!
Hiruzen understands me! Hiruzen understands me!'

Danzo suppressed his emotions, snorted coldly, took a cane from a root, turned away gracefully, and said slowly: "Since it is the Hokage's order, then let's go."

Danzo just left like that?
Some of the Anbu ninjas standing inside and outside the house found it a little bizarre and absurd, even a little child's play.

However, some people were very curious and asked quietly, "Is the Third-sama planning to pass the position of Hokage to Danzo-sama?"

No one responded. Konoha's innocence was becoming more and more incomprehensible.

"Master Patriarch, it has been handled. Please check it."

In the police department, Shisui took the document and read it carefully for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work. I will rely on your help with things here in the future."

Zhishui followed Yan Shifan's advice and found some ordinary people with good memory and intelligence from the tribe for training.

The work of the police department was not complicated, and after Yashiro gave them some simple instructions for a while, they quickly got the hang of it.

"We should be thanking the clan leader. We never thought we would have the opportunity to join the police department. This is great!"

The people had different ages, the youngest was thirteen or fourteen years old, and the oldest was even a father or mother, but they started crying as they talked.

In Konoha, ninjas are the ones with the highest status, and all ordinary people here exist to serve the ninjas.

It would be fine if they were ordinary traveling merchants or civilians, making do with their lives, but they were born into the Uchiha, a wealthy family in Konoha.

Entering the police department is the dream of most Uchiha, but they can't even become a ninja, which is undoubtedly despairing.

Now Shisui gave them a chance. Although they could not become ninjas, they successfully entered the police department. Not only did they fulfill their dreams of many years, but they also received good salaries.

Shisui was filled with emotion when he saw this. Konoha had civilian staff, but he had never thought of doing the same thing in the police department. He still didn't care enough about his people.

Feeling guilty, Shisui comforted everyone one by one. At this moment, Izayoi suddenly came over and whispered in his ear.

After hearing this, Shisui's expression suddenly changed, and the others saw this and walked away sensibly.

After they left, Shisui instructed, "Tell the teacher the news, and if he agrees, tell Danzo about it immediately."

"Yes!"

"and many more!"

Izayoi just turned around, but then stopped again and looked at Shisui in confusion.

Shisui was silent in thought for a moment, then added: "Let someone spread the news that the Third Hokage intends to make Danzo the Hokage."

"Yes!"

Izayoi was puzzled, but he did not ask too much. Since Teru went to the Yunoko National Defense Line, he had taken control of the secret intelligence network under Shisui's arrangement. Only then did he know that Shisui had done so many things in secret.

I also learned that the teacher in the clan leader's family was so amazing.

But he didn't care. As long as his children were safe, he didn't care what happened to Konoha.

And Shisui can give him the best protection!

Izayoi left quickly to arrange matters on both sides. After receiving the news, Yan Shifan nodded with satisfaction, "Let's do as the clan leader thinks. Danzo can wait until night, and be careful not to let anyone from the clan go."

"Yes!"

The intelligence network that the Uchiha had been operating for a long time began to operate, and that afternoon the news that Danzo might become Hokage quickly spread throughout Konoha.

However, the Anbu were not united. The captain of the Jounin squad, Nara Suzaku, had been pretending to be dead, and the Uchiha were the ones who acted secretly. The various ninja clans knew that there was a problem, but they all tacitly chose to turn a blind eye. By the time the three assistants found out about this, the news could no longer be blocked.

Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En looked at each other. As Danzo was handling government affairs nearby, they had to suppress their anger. After a brief conversation with Danzo, they got up and left.

After leaving the Hokage building, Utane Koharu was terrified and asked in a low voice, "Any news from your side?"

"It will be soon. My people have found her whereabouts in Dongshan Road. It looks like she is going to the Kingdom of Hot Springs. I have sent people to look for her. It won't be long before she is found."

"That's good. I'll have someone help you. You must find the person as soon as possible, otherwise Danzo will not let it go."

"hope so"

Inside the Hokage building, Danzo didn't care about the two's departure. Although he had lost most of his power, he felt full of strength at the moment, as if he was ten years younger.

I don't feel tired even if I finish most of the tasks in one go.

Someone from the Root came over at the right time and told Danzo the news from the village. Danzo immediately grinned, but then realized that this would damage his image, so he immediately held it back.

But he really wanted to laugh.

He has waited too long for this day, and now the whole village is calling his name, hoping that he will become Hokage.

He will not let the villagers down. He will eventually become the fifth generation and lead Konoha back to its former glory!
hum~
With a slight snort, Danzo lowered his head to hide his emotions.

"My Lord, someone delivered this outside the Root."

Just as Danzo was happily imagining the future, another Root sent a secret letter.

Danzo took it without even looking up, opened it, browsed through it, and put it down.

Ok?
Danzo looked up suddenly, his eyes twitched slightly, his expression was puzzled, then he picked up the letter again, opened it, browsed it, and put it down!

bang~
When Danzo reacted, he felt his scalp tingling and his eyes went dark. He suddenly stood up and punched the desk with the letter in his hand.

The violent wind chakra instantly tore the table and the letters into pieces.

His fist was covered in dark red blood, but Danzo was unaware of it. He looked through the window at the houses in the distance, and at the four disgusting yet enviable stone statues, with a rage in his heart that could not be extinguished.

Especially the third one, the Hokage in the dark, whose expression seemed to be mocking him.

"Hiruzen!"

With a roar, Danzo felt a sweetness in his heart and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell into coma.

"Danzo seems to have had an accident, and the Root's men secretly sent him back to the Root base."

After leaving the Dark Root, it had completely lost its concealment in the eyes of the Uchiha. As soon as Danzo was taken away from the Hokage Building, Shisui knew what was going on.

Shisui was training with Kinkade and Eiki in the backyard, and upon hearing this he couldn't help but say, "It seems like this incident dealt a heavy blow to Danzo~"

The letter only mentioned one thing, 'After the third generation fell into a coma, Utaha Koharu and Mitomon En were secretly looking for Tsunade, and the Sarutobi clan also participated. At present, there is news about Tsunade's whereabouts.'

To make Danzo so angry that he vomited blood, it must have touched upon something sad.

Shishui sighed, then sent the two away and went to the study alone to discuss with Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan surprisingly did not laugh, but looked up at the moon and sighed, "I used to think I was in control of everything, but in that person's eyes, I was just a clown and I didn't know when I would be thrown away.

It was my reckless behavior that led to this fate, and I also implicated my father. I don’t know if there will be anyone to take care of him after I am gone.”

Yan Shifan was moved by the scene and felt sad.

Shishui was speechless, not knowing how to comfort her, so he could only stand by and fan the fire.

After a while, Yan Shifan calmed down and felt relieved to see Zhishui beside him.

"It doesn't matter. What happened in the past life cannot be undone. We should focus on the present."

Yan Shifan was also an extraordinary person, and he quickly adjusted his emotions and analyzed to Shisui, "After experiencing such great joy and sorrow, Danzo might do something unwise, but this will only make him look more helpless.

Once he loses his trump card and has nothing to rely on, he will lose his resolve and will come to us for help."

Yan Shifan's guess was correct. Danzo was just angry, but his body was much better than the third generation's, and he woke up quickly with the help of the medical ninja.

After waking up, Danzo's aura became even colder, and his eyes revealed a hint of madness.

"Call everyone, everyone!"

He wants to risk everything and take a gamble!
"Yes!"

The two Root members beside him shuddered and immediately agreed and left.

Within a quarter of an hour, all the Root members hiding inside and outside Konoha returned to the Root base.

Twenty-seven people in total.

The Root was originally planned to have seventeen members, and Danzo trained some of them privately, but they were robbed twice by the Third Hokage, and there were not many of them left in secret.

After confirming his own strength, Danzo immediately sent someone to invite the two assistants to the Hokage Building to discuss important matters.

Then he divided the Root troops into two groups and set up an ambush on the road the two men had to pass, preparing to ambush and kill the two assistants directly.

"They have become a threat to Konoha. As the roots of Konoha, we must carry out the Heavenly Punishment. From now on, we must eradicate them!"

As soon as the two of them died, he would immediately take over the Anbu, and then lead people to the Sarutobi clan's territory to force the Third Hokage to compromise, and then throw the people from Tenshin and Mitomon directly onto the battlefield. He didn't believe that anyone could hinder him!

However, Danzo has never been able to get things done as he wished, it was like this in the past and it is still like this now.

Although the Konoha ninjas could not directly monitor every member of the Root, there were already countless spies hiding outside the Root's gate.

As soon as the Root made the slightest movement, Utane Koharu and Mitokado En received the news, and the Sarutobi clan immediately provided support.

Under the power of the three clans, the Root not only failed to complete the mission, but also suffered heavy losses. Even Danzo's proud Wood Release ninja - A was captured alive and sent to the Sarutobi clan's territory that night, and was known to the Third Hokage.

When Danzo learned the result, there were less than ten people left in the huge Root base, and everyone was injured.

Danzo hid in the darkness and remained silent for a long time, until the door opened and the masked Kakashi brought the news from the Third Hokage.

"Hokage-sama asks Elder Danzo to go to the Sarutobi clan's land."

Nothing was mentioned about what happened specifically, and Danzo didn't bother to ask.

He looked at Kakashi, who was half-kneeling under the light, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.

'I could have lived with that.'

I didn’t buy a ticket, so I can’t go home. I’m crying~
Sharing what happened today: When I went out to eat after school in the evening, I found a self-service hot pot restaurant. There were black chicken rolls and other rolls. The food tasted okay, but just as I took the first bite, the power went out.

Luckily, this store is right next to the street, so I ate for a long time using the street lights and my cell phone.

Then the boss came over and asked us to sign our names so that we could eat for free next time. He kept apologizing and said that the power outage was their fault. I didn't think it was a big deal, but after hearing what the boss said, I immediately liked him. I will probably eat there often in the future. Lick~
