The leisurely life of the Hyuga main family

The Hokage election is in full swing.

Finally, the Third Hokage returned to the battlefield!

There's no way around it! Orochimaru has defected, and Tsunade and Jiraiya are at odds.

The Hokage lineage, which was originally full of powerful figures, has inexplicably fallen into the embarrassing situation of having no successor in a short period of time.

Fortunately, the Third Hokage was still vigorous despite his advanced age! Otherwise, the position of Hokage might have really fallen into the hands of Danzo.

This was probably the closest Danzo ever came to becoming Hokage!

Of the four candidates who ran for office two years ago, Minato Namikaze died in battle, Orochimaru defected, and Fugaku Uchiha was deeply involved in the Nine-Tails Night Incident.

He was about to ascend to the Hokage position he had always dreamed of! But then that bastard Third Hokage suddenly launched a surprise attack!

You old bastard! Now that you're retired, you should just go home and enjoy your retirement! What's the point of coming out here and competing with the young people for the Hokage position?!

The above is a furious cursing that an unnamed insider overheard while passing by the Root headquarters!

"Lord Danzo, the Third Hokage has sent a letter to transfer Kakashi!" a Root member reported.

"Hmm~!" The tone was flat, but the veins on the hand gripping the cane were bulging, and the eyes were filled with overwhelming rage!

All of this reveals the unease deep within Danzo's heart!

"Hiruzen! Hiruzen!!" A low, hoarse voice uttered each word from Danzo's mouth.

However, as the renowned Dark Ninja of the ninja world, Danzo the Ninja's ability to regulate his emotions is undoubtedly top-notch.

It wasn't long before I readjusted my mindset.

Hiruzen! You want to train Kakashi to be the Fifth Hokage? His will is so weak, he's completely unsuitable to be Hokage! So~ I won't let you have your way!

"Someone come here!"

"Lord Danzo!"

"Get ready, we're heading to the Hyuga clan!"

"yes!"

Before long, chaos erupted within the Hyuga clan!

This shows how notorious Danzo was.

"What?! Danzo's here?!" Hiashi Hyuga frowned deeply! He loathed the Dark Side of the Ninja!

However, Danzo was a high-ranking member of Konoha. Both morally and logically, as the clan head, he was obligated to receive him.

"Lord Danzo!" Hiashi Hyuga greeted Danzo politely.

"Hiashi, the Fourth Hokage died in the Nine-Tails Night battle, and the village suffered heavy losses. I need to expand the Root's fighting strength." Danzo went straight to the point: "Your Hyuga clan needs to provide a batch of children."

"Lord Danzo is joking." Danzo was straightforward in his demand for people, but Hiashi was even more straightforward in his refusal, saying without hesitation, "Members of our Hyuga clan are not suitable for Root."

"Just an unofficial member!" Danzo said calmly, as if he had expected it.

The main branch might still be able to join his Root Clan, but what about a minor branch? Even if they wanted to join the Root Clan, Danzo wouldn't agree.

He wasn't some arrogant fool who thought he could handle the caged bird that had been passed down for thousands of years just because he had researched the seal that would eliminate the root of tongue-related troubles.

If they can't handle the caged bird, what's the point of having members of the branch family? Aren't they afraid enough that the Hyuga clan will find out?

"Unofficial members?" Hiashi frowned. "Excuse my bluntness, but the Hyuga clan members in the reconnaissance squad are always on standby."

"What I need are dedicated, non-staff members working at the root!"

"Please allow me to refuse!" Japan refused outright.

What do you mean by "exclusively an unofficial member of Root"? Does Danzo have some kind of germophobia? You don't want to use the Byakugan that the Hokage or other departments have used?

Do you really think you can treat my Hyuga clan members like mere expendable resources?!

Japanese foot is almost certain that if he were to agree to become an unofficial member of the so-called Root organization's special reconnaissance team, all the missions he would participate in would be doomed to death!

Only in this way can the secrets of Danzo and Root be preserved.

Members of the officially appointed Konoha reconnaissance squad don't need to worry. Every mission they undertake is recorded.

Therefore, even if one dies, one will never die in an unclear or ambiguous way.

"Hmph!" Danzo gave Hyuga Hiashi a deep look, snorted, and left.

"Hmph!" Hiashi Hyuga wasn't going to put up with him.

As one of the most prestigious ninja clans in Konoha, he had enough confidence not to fear Danzo, unlike those smaller ninja clans who were afraid of him.

After the grotto-ghost left, Hiashi Hyuga began to ponder Danzo's purpose.

Why would Danzo directly violate the unspoken rules? Was he trying to recruit members of the Hyuga clan into Root?

To put it bluntly, even if it were a candidate for the Hokage's bodyguard, the Hyuga clan wouldn't be chosen! Not to mention the even more sinister Root clan.

Because no matter what, the Hyuga branch family can never become absolute confidants.

On the other side~

Having just finished practicing a set of Gentle Fist and warmed up her muscles, Shirotsuki learned from Aunt Hanako that Danzo had come to Hyuga Ichigetsu.

What is Danzo doing here? His purpose is unclear.

They neither understand nor respect it.

If you were to create a ranking of the strongest ninjas in the ninja world, everyone would have their own opinions and supporters.

But if we're talking about who's the worst, then there's no doubt about it! Danzo!

Many characters were redeemed in the later stages of Naruto, and even though some of these redemptions made people uncomfortable, we could still grit our teeth and accept it.

Danzo, you think you can whitewash yourself?!

No matter how eloquently you describe it, everyone cheered when Danzo died.

The only regret about his death is that there's one less scapegoat for him now.

"Lord Danzo, please let me join your Root organization! Please!"

Hmm? Kai's voice?

Bai Yue was stunned. Danzo's target was him?!

"Kai! You're not suited for Root." Danzo's head throbbed. Why did he have to run into this weirdo here? "Your heart isn't dark enough, and besides, Kakashi has already joined the Anbu."

"But……"

"There are no buts!" With that, Danzo used the Body Flicker Technique to leave.

When Danzo learned of Guy's fighting strength, he was single-mindedly focused on bringing Guy into the Root. However, after a brief encounter, Danzo realized that those thick eyebrows were definitely not suitable for entering the Root!

"How arrogant!" Several branch family members who were secretly monitoring Danzo curled their lip in displeasure.

"Let's go back and report to the clan chief that Danzo's target might be Young Master Shiratsuki."

"Hmm!" Anyone with eyes could see that Danzo's target today was Hakugetsu.

But who gave him the courage to set his sights on the Hyuga main family?!

"Kai~ What brings you here?!" Bai Yue, who had just opened the door, immediately saw Kai.

"It's been a while since we sparred." Kai flashed his gleaming teeth and gave a hearty thumbs-up. Then, he suddenly became serious and said, "Bai Yue, that Danzo might be eyeing you."

? !

Ah Kai, your shrewdness is so unfamiliar to me!

Of course, that's just a joke. Although Ah Kai may seem unreliable and silly.

But it's actually very reliable.

But... how could Akai's beast-like intuition be so sharp?!

That's amazing!
