Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Somewhere within the Kingdom of Rain.

Danzo was sitting on the tatami, looking at the reply letter lying on the table.

As Bai Ye was his first chess piece in the Akatsuki organization, he looked forward to the content in the letter. The content might bring him a lot of surprises.

After opening the reply letter, Danzo read the contents carefully.

In the first paragraph of the letter, Bai Ye did not follow his instructions and immediately develop the Akatsuki organization. Instead, he refuted his orders and told him not to meddle in other people's business.

Although Danzo was quite unhappy with these words, they were still within an acceptable range.

Byakuya was not the ninja he had trained since childhood, and now he had a high status in the Akatsuki organization. It was normal to be dissatisfied with his dictating.

Young people always learn to restrain their energy and respect the elderly after experiencing something.

Continuing to read down, I saw Bai Ye telling in the letter that he was already working hard to develop the Akatsuki organization, but due to manpower, money and ninjutsu, the plan was delayed.

Danzo has long been accustomed to this set of words.

It's just that he thinks he hasn't given enough and wants to get more benefits from himself.

These rising ninjas from the small ninja village regard even A-level ninjutsu as a treasure. They can entrust their lives for a few million taels. It's best to handle them.

However, you cannot withhold assistance, nor can you give too much at once. If you don’t give it, you will feel resentful, and if you give it too much, you will have thoughts of leaving.

When it comes to training spies, Danzo boasts that he has quite a lot of experience.

Continuing reading, when he saw Byakuya's suggestion at the Akatsuki organization meeting, but it was jointly rejected by the top management headed by Yahiko, Danzo's expression was mixed with sadness and joy, and became extremely complicated.

Happily, his guess about Bai Ye was correct.

The other party is indeed the person who does dirty things in the Akatsuki organization, and he has the motivation to climb up. However, due to various reasons, his suggestions were rejected by some sanctimonious ninjas, and he was unable to use all his abilities.

Sadly, he is the same person, and the situation is even worse.

Whenever he wants to make a proposal, he will always encounter opposition from Sarutobi Hiruzen. Koharu and Mito Kadeni will also side with Sarutobi Hiruzen and jointly reject his proposal.

The difference with Byakuya is that he is only one step away from becoming Hokage.

If he had not hesitated during the severance incident and proposed the severance earlier than Sarutobi Hiruzen, maybe the Third Hokage would have been him and he wouldn't have had to guard the light in the darkness.

If there was a choice, who would want to be the root in the darkness every day, but the Hokage in the sun?

The Aburame Ryoma next to her saw Danzo lost in thought and felt a little confused.

Didn't I just receive the reply from Bai Ye? Is Lord Danzo looking so gloomy? Did Byakuya offend Danzo-sama?

Thinking of this, Aburame Ryoma asked cautiously: "Danzo-sama, Byakuya refused your order?"

Danzo shook his head and said seriously: "No, don't ask any more questions."

Hearing this, Ryoma Aburame shut up obediently. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask was one of the rules in the root manual. As Danzo's right-hand man, he usually didn't need to abide by this rule.

But since Danzo has spoken personally, he can't even ask more questions about this secret.

However, now he was even more curious about the contents of the letter.

At this time, Danzo saw the end of the letter, in which Byakuya asked if there was any way to seize power, and promised to strengthen cooperation with Konoha after becoming the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

Seeing this, Danzo fell silent again.

It's a good thing that Bai Ye wants something from him. It can better control the opponent and make Bai Ye completely become a pawn.

But after becoming the leader of the root, he had done many shady tasks, killed officials under the daimyo, and planned a conspiracy against the Third Raikage, but he really didn't have much experience in seizing power.

If he had experience, he would have pulled down Sarutobi Hiruzen long ago.

The position of Hokage should be left to him. Hiruzen Sarutobi is more suitable to be the root leader and live underground.

At this time, Danzo couldn't help but picture himself standing on the Hokage Building, wearing a Hokage hat and waving to everyone, and everyone responded with a roar, and respectfully called him Hokage-sama.

At that time, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only hide in the corner of the crowd, showing unwillingness in his eyes.

After the fantasy time ended, Danzo looked at Aburame Ryoma beside him, pushed the letter to Aburame Ryoma, and asked: "Ryoma, Byakuya needs help, do you have any good ideas?"

Aburame Ryoma quickly glanced at the content of the letter, and his face gradually solidified. The help Byakuya needed was simple, but he didn't know and didn't dare to answer Danzo.

Isn't the relationship between Byakuya and the senior leaders of the Akatsuki organization the same as the relationship between Danzo and other high-level officials in Konoha?

Danzo asked him how to assist Byakuya at this time. Wasn't he asking him how to launch a coup in Konoha?

Although many people knew that Danzo wanted to become Hokage, including the Third Hokage himself, he could not answer this question easily.

Aburame Ryoma's silence was noticed by Danzo. He frowned and showed displeasure in his eyes. He didn't even dare to answer such a trivial matter. How could we discuss major matters together in the future?

Seeing Danzo's thoughts, Aburame Ryoma's heart skipped a beat and said directly:

"Lord Danzo, why don't we help Byakuya kill the leader and senior officials of the Akatsuki organization? After losing the other senior officials, he will naturally become the leader of the Akatsuki organization."

"Killing is indeed good, but some are too extreme, and it will also arouse Bai Ye's jealousy."

Danzo frowned, not satisfied with this answer, because once all the other senior executives died, the only surviving senior executive would become the biggest target of suspicion.

Although others would be angry and dare not speak out even if they knew the truth, this would definitely weaken the organization's strength.

Once the outside launches an invasion, this fire leader will not be able to hold the position for long.

After the suggestion was opposed, Aburame Ryoma breathed a sigh of relief, and then said nonsense: "How about we contact Byakuya to make a plan, so that when the Akatsuki organization falls into crisis, Byakuya will come to save the Akatsuki organization."

"In this way, Byakuya will definitely become the hero of the Akatsuki organization, and it will be natural for him to become the leader."

"Yes, this plan is much more reliable than before."

After hearing this suggestion, Danzo's expression softened a lot. If he could really become a village hero, his chances of becoming Hokage would indeed be much higher in the future.

But now there are no major wars in the village, even if the village encounters a crisis.

There is a high probability that Namikaze Minato and Sarutobi Hiruzen will save the village. He has no chance at all, and this plan is still not very reliable.

Thinking of this, Danzo looked at Aburame Ryoma and asked:

"Are there any other options? I don't think these are good enough."
