In addition, the Third Hokage naturally had a plan to protect the Uchiha clan, but he also hoped that the Uchiha would eventually integrate into the village.
Yes! We'll integrate it in after weakening it.
That's the thought at least for now!
Unlike Danzo, who was single-mindedly focused on annihilating the Uchiha clan.
"If you could control him, you wouldn't have let him grow to this level without us even realizing it! This kid's strength is likely already on par with yours and mine. Are you sure you can control him, Hiruzen?"
Danzo said angrily.
This has always been the case for the third generation; they always want to keep all the good things to themselves and don't want to share any with him.
He clearly did so much and sacrificed so much for Konoha and for the Third Hokage.
"I believe I can! Besides, he hasn't lost control yet! He hasn't done anything to wrong the village, has he? We can't harm a hero who hasn't done anything wrong!"
The three generations refuted this with righteous indignation.
In short, he would not hand over the Cloud Sect to Danzo.
"you"
Danzo was speechless after being rebuked. Knowing that it was impossible to take Yunshou from the Third Hokage for the time being, he immediately said, "Then at least we must immediately recall him from the front lines. We can't let him continue to make contributions on the front lines!"
"Otherwise, his prestige in the village might very well surpass yours as Hokage!"
"If the village chooses him to be the new Hokage by then, it will be too late!"
Danzo's concerns were not unfounded.
When everyone in the village is united, even if he and Danzo are unwilling, they will probably be helpless.
Moreover, Yunxiao is not without supporters.
He has the Uchiha clan, the largest clan in Konoha, behind him.
His mentor was Kurenai Yuhi, a senior Jonin from Konoha, who already had a sizable circle of friends.
In addition, Yunxiao has a good relationship with Kakashi and Minato Namikaze!
If these things get involved, Yunxiao will gain enough merit and prestige to become Hokage, which is not impossible.
Even if he is an Uchiha.
Unfortunately, the Third Hokage and Danzo won't give him that chance!
Therefore, the Third Hokage agreed to Danzo's suggestion without hesitation: "That's a good idea! I'll issue the order right away to summon the Crimson Clan back together! Crimson Yuhi is still recovering from her injuries and needs to rest for a while!"
"The situation at the Iwagakure front is stable! Leaving Minato's team there is enough!"
He's planning to keep Yunxiao out of the spotlight for a while.
He would only release him once he was absolutely certain that he could regain complete control over him.
Otherwise, Yunxiao won't be able to go to the battlefield for a long time to come.
Besides, he's also worried about constantly putting Asuma in such a dangerous place as the front line.
Last time, there was no other way; we simply couldn't send anyone else!
Moreover, if Yunxiao was sent, it wouldn't be right to leave Asma behind.
How would the villagers, who were already increasingly dissatisfied with him, view him?
Oh! Your son's life is precious and cannot die, but the lives of our loved ones are not?
Therefore, even though the Third Hokage knew that the support mission was dangerous, he still sent Asuma.
Now, isn't the result very good?
He could easily use Asuma to subtly promote himself.
Look, I, the Hokage, have even sent my own son to the most dangerous missions on the front lines. What more could you possibly want?
For three generations, my family has truly devoted ourselves to the village, even unto death!
The third generation believed that this move would definitely help him regain a lot of prestige.
"That's good, then I'll be going now!"
Danzo immediately took his leave, but before leaving, he asked, still somewhat unwilling to give up, "Are you really not going to consider entrusting Yunxiao to me for training?"
"No need! I believe I can handle it!"
The third generation said expressionlessly.
"Hmph! You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"
After angrily uttering those words, Danzo left the Hokage's office, leaning on his cane.
"They all covet the Hokage position I'm in, and the power I hold! Sigh! I'm really heartbroken over Konoha!"
After Danzo left, the Third Hokage sighed wearily in his heart.
He then wrote a transfer order and handed it to the Anbu, instructing them to send it to the Crimson Squad as soon as possible using the Ninja Hawk.
The Ninja Hawk is very fast.
However, within two days, Yunxiao and his comrades at the front line received a transfer order.
What was written in the letter?
Asma curiously leaned closer to look and asked questions.
"Here!"
Yunxiao handed it to him directly, saying, "Take a look for yourself!"
"What? They want to send us back for rest and recuperation?"
Asma quickly became furious after reading the transfer order and letter: "What the hell is that old geezer up to? The situation on the front lines is so dire right now, and he's transferring us back? What is he thinking?"
"No, I have to write back and ask him. Besides, we can't just leave Kakashi and Minato-sensei behind and go back like this!"
As he spoke, Asma prepared to write a reply.
"you come back!"
Kurenai Yuhi immediately stopped Asuma, helplessly advising, "The Hokage's orders are absolute! We cannot disobey! Even if you are the Hokage's son, it doesn't matter!"
At this point, Kurenai Yuhi walked over and patted Asuma on the shoulder, comforting him, "Alright! Let's pack up and set off as soon as possible! I believe the Hokage must have his reasons for doing this!"
Absolutely! The boss has a deeper meaning.
As a veteran elite Jonin and the leader of the Konoha Genjutsu Team, how could Kurenai Yuhi not be aware of the infighting and power struggles hidden within Konoha?
He just didn't want Yunxiao and Asma to get involved too early!
They're only eleven or twelve years old, it's not appropriate!
Chapter 69
"Indeed! The teacher is right!"
Yunxiao also advised, "We cannot disobey orders! Fortunately, the situation on the front lines of the Iwa ninja battlefield has stabilized! Reinforcements have arrived, and with Lord Orochimaru and Master Minato present, there shouldn't be any problems!"
Red also spoke up from the side, "Asuma! Don't be stubborn!"
"All right!"
After being persuaded, Asuma could only nod in agreement helplessly.
But in the end, he still stubbornly retorted, "However, when I get back, I'll still have a word with that old geezer! Don't even think about convincing me until you give me a reasonable explanation! Humph!"
"This show is up to you!"
Yunxiao and the others shrugged.
That was just a problem between Asma and his son.
Anyway, the Third Hokage couldn't possibly kill Asuma, could he?
Afterwards, Yunxiao and the others went to see Minato and Orochimaru, who had just arrived with his troops four days earlier.
They explained their purpose for coming.
"Is that so?"
With a look of helplessness and regret, Minato said, "I was originally planning to go on the next important mission with Yunxiao!"
"With you here, the success rate would be much higher. Now we have to think of another way! Sigh."
Doesn't Minato understand the ins and outs of this?
Certainly not!
He may lack experience in internal power struggles, but that doesn't mean he's really stupid.
However, he is not yet in a position to get involved in such matters, nor is he qualified to do so.
"Yeah! Minato-sensei, you need to be careful! Kakashi, Rin, Obito, you guys too!"
Yunxiao went over and patted each of them on the shoulder. A sword intent silently entered each of their shoulders and disappeared.
Yes! Except for Minato.
He didn't have the ability to leave a backup plan without Minato noticing.
Besides, Minato, who can use the Flying Thunder God Technique, doesn't need this.
Orochimaru, however, seemed to have sensed something, a meaningful glint flashing in his eyes, finding it quite amusing.
"gone!"
"Goodbye!"
Then, Yunxiao and the others began to leave.
Orochimaru deliberately followed Yunxiao out of the tent and escorted him for a while. Then, he took the opportunity to lean close to Yunxiao and whispered in a hoarse voice, "Yunxiao-kun, don't slack off when you get back! Our deal will proceed as scheduled! I hope you can give me a surprise next time we meet!"
"As for what you want, once you return to Konoha, just summon the White Serpent for communication, and it will take you to one of my bases to retrieve it! You can also use the equipment at that base! I have high hopes for you!"
That's right! Yunxiao had unknowingly gotten involved with Orochimaru and made a deal.
In the past four days.
Yunxiao showed Orochimaru half of the genetic data as a stepping stone, thus gaining the opportunity to cooperate with Orochimaru.
According to the initial agreement, he would provide a complete set of genetic data and, incidentally, help Orochimaru complete an experiment related to Hashirama cells!
For this, Yunxiao can obtain the Flying Thunder God Technique, 10 Hashirama cells, and a summoning contract from the Earth Dragon Cave from Orochimaru.
If this collaboration goes smoothly, we can further deepen our cooperation in the future.
Hashirama cells are certainly not primitive cells; even Orochimaru didn't have those.
Currently, only Danzo possesses Hashirama's original cells.
What Yunxiao obtained this time was merely Hashirama's cells, which Orochimaru had obtained from Danzo and which had been propagated over a generation.
Aside from not being able to multiply indefinitely, it's not much different from the original.
Yunxiao nodded slightly: "Of course! I won't disappoint Lord Orochimaru! Well then, farewell!"
Upon hearing this, Orochimaru stopped in his tracks, satisfied.
Yunxiao followed in Yuhi Shinku's footsteps, and the four of them sped away towards Konoha.
"What did you talk about with Orochimaru? When did you start hooking up with him?"
On the way, Asma asked Yunxiao curiously.
"Don't ask too many questions, kid! There are some things you shouldn't know!"
Yunxiao retorted with a smile.
Asma: "(Dan),"
Asuma said irritably, "You! You can be really infuriating when you're angry! If you don't want to talk about it, then don't! Tch! I don't care to know anyway! Anything related to Orochimaru can't be anything good!"
Clearly, Asuma didn't have a good impression of Orochimaru, and was even quite afraid of him!
"Yunxiao-kun! Lord Orochimaru is quite terrifying! You'd better be careful!"
Hong, standing nearby, cautiously offered a reminder.
"really!"
