Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 168 Shimura Danzo, your deeds have been exposed, return to the village immediately to face punishment!

Within Konoha Village, turmoil continues.

Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned Homura Mitokado overnight.

Hiruzen Sarutobi told Homura Mitokado everything, hoping that Homura could persuade their old friend Danzo Shimura not to use his power to cause trouble, and to resolve the matter peacefully as much as possible.

"I will try to persuade him."

Mitokado Homura realized the seriousness of the problem, but this kind-hearted man was not flustered at all, and was even quite confident: "We have been friends with Danzo for many years. Danzo may have acted a bit extremely, but everything he did was for Konoha..."

Mitokado Homura looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and earnestly offered his suggestion: "Before I summon Danzo back, why don't you first strip Akihara Kagura of her power as the leader of Root, declare that Akihara Kagura is no longer a candidate for Hokage, and let her join the Anbu first..."

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly shook his head.

Hiruzen Sarutobi believed that Homura Mitokado's political sensitivity was still somewhat lacking. Struggle and gamesmanship were not the right thing to do at this time. One could act gently but not too weakly.

Why strip Akihara Kagura of her position as leader of Root at this time? Isn't that clearly an admission of weakness to Shimura Danzo? What will they have to offer in negotiations with Shimura Danzo then?

the most important is…

Did Mitokado Homura care too much about his old friend Danzo, believing that everyone would compromise for politics and forgetting that Akihara Kagura was the strongest fighting force in Konoha?

Although Akihara Kagura doesn't have the Sharingan, she is still a terrifyingly talented genius when it comes to Wood Release alone. There might not be anyone more talented than Kagura among Shimura Danzo's subordinates!

Hiruzen Sarutobi was already worried about how to remove Akihara Kagura from her position without causing the boy to harbor resentment towards him. After all, no matter how many people Shimura Danzo had under his command, Akihara Kagura was still the most suitable person in Konoha to succeed as Hokage.

"Stop talking."

Hiruzen Sarutobi could only sigh and instructed, "Now, I'll trouble you to get there tonight to prevent Danzo from taking any drastic actions..."

"it is good."

Mitokado Yan agreed.

root base.

The base, hidden deep underground, remained completely dark.

Kagura Akihara sat on a railing in the base's corridor, quietly gazing at the darkness in the abyss of the Root base. Twelve masked Uchiha stood beside him.

These are the actors tonight.

Akihara Kagura deliberately smeared Shimura Danzo by having these people discovered by the Anbu one after another, until they were finally found in Shimura Danzo's house.

"Put on your masks first."

Akihara Kagura gave the order without even looking up.

"Yes."

Upon hearing Akihara Kagura's command, the twelve Uchiha immediately teleported to the side, changed their masks, and returned to their respective Root dormitories without the slightest hesitation.

As the Uchiha changed their masks, White Zetsu Awei slowly emerged from the ground, quietly reporting the information it had received.

"My true self found me and told me a few things..."

"First, Danzo Shimura has already discovered the Akatsuki organization..."

"However, Danzo Shimura wanted to contact Hanzo of the Salamander, the leader of Amegakure, to continue the attack on Akatsuki, but Hanzo of the Salamander did not agree. Instead, he sent someone to inform Nagato of this matter. Nagato wanted to kill Danzo, but in order to avoid arousing Konoha's vigilance and hatred, Obito stopped him..."

"Young man, Obito Uchiha and Nagato hope you can resolve Danzo Shimura's investigation of the Akatsuki organization, lest Danzo actually uncover something..."

"This is such a hassle..."

Akihara Kagura rubbed her forehead, but still nodded in agreement: "I've helped them solve this kind of trouble so many times..."

[System Notification]: [New mission (Nagato): Resolve the issue of Danzo Shimura and the pursuing ninja forces investigating the Akatsuki organization.]

[System Notification]: [New mission (Obito Uchiha): Resolve the issue of Danzo Shimura and the pursuing ninja forces investigating the Akatsuki organization.]

to be frank.

This kind of task has happened many times before.

Kagura Akihara helped the Akatsuki organization and Obito Uchiha solve the problems of Kakashi Hatake, Jiraiya, and others being investigated, and now she has to help them solve the problem of Danzo Shimura being investigated.

Akihara Kagura was just saying it, but she didn't really have any complaints. After all, the Akatsuki was being investigated mostly because of him.

It's quite appropriate to solve the problems you created yourself.

but…

The fact that Shimura Danzo was able to find out about the Akatsuki organization this time was not because Akihara Kagura provoked him.

"I guided them to find it..."

White Zetsu Awei chuckled as he looked at Akihara Kagura and said softly, "The Akatsuki has recruited several new members, but these newcomers don't seem to respect you enough. There's even a kid among them who really hates you, so I thought I'd give them a little trouble..."

"Don't let them find out..."

Akihara Kagura frowned.

"It's okay."

Bai Zetsu Awei shook his head, not caring about any of this, and even looked like he wanted praise: "Didn't you say Orochimaru coveted your body? I put all the blame on Orochimaru."

"..."

Akihara Kagura had to give White Zetsu Awei a thumbs up.

"There's a second thing."

White Zetsu Awei looked at Akihara Kagura and provided crucial information: "Shimura Danzo wants to find an opportunity to attack Hozuki Mangetsu of Kirigakure!"

"..."

Akihara Kagura understood Shimura Danzo's thought process; it was no surprise at all that her former boss, Shimura Danzo, wanted to do something like this!

Shimura Danzo's desire to deal with Hozuki Mangetsu was also very advantageous to Akihara Kagura, as this opportunity could be used to frame Shimura Danzo.

"Lord Danzo is my former superior."

Akihara Kagura sighed inwardly, then beckoned the twelve Uchiha to come over, saying, "Since this is something Lord Danzo wants to do, I'll definitely help him. You guys follow Awei..."

"yes!"

The twelve Uchiha immediately bowed their heads and agreed.

Although Akihara Kagura said she would help Danzo, the help she provided seemed to add another charge against Shimura Danzo, and they were happy to do such a thing.

"This is…"

Bai Zetsu Awei looked at the eyes peeking out from behind these people's masks with some confusion, and asked in surprise, "How come they all have Sharingan?"

Akihara Kagura introduced them to White Zetsu Awei: "They are our new subordinates, experimental products left behind by Lord Danzo. They possess both Wood Release and Sharingan bloodlines. They don't have names; you can call them A, B, C, or D as you like. I'll tell you more about them later. You'll take them to help Lord Danzo..."

After finishing her sentence, Akihara Kagura asked White Zetsu Awei, "How are Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu performing? Have they shown any signs of betraying us?"

"no."

Bai Jue Awei shook his head and continued, "That little guy named Qu Gen is very smart, while that guy named Shan Zhongfeng is older than him, but a bit less intelligent..."

"That's good."

Kagura Akihara waved to them and said, "Go ahead. The envoy sent by the Third Hokage to see Lord Danzo has already departed. Get this done as soon as possible."

"yes!"

The twelve Uchiha nodded quickly.

"Then I'll take them there."

Bone spurs sprouted from White Zetsu Awei's body as he grinned and said, "Coincidentally, I also possess two bloodline limits..."

"Don't expose it casually."

Akihara Kagura sighed, patted White Zetsu Awei on the shoulder, and solemnly instructed him: "Don't rush anything, let them go see Lord Danzo first."

"Inform Lord Danzo that the Third Hokage secretly used Hashirama's cells and Sharingan to cultivate a dual bloodline experiment subject. However, to avoid criticism from the village's ninja clans, Lord Danzo should bear the blame for conducting illegal human experiments and return to the village as soon as possible to be punished."

"Shimura Danzo wouldn't agree, would he?"

"Don't worry about whether he agrees or not, just let him know."

"Then you go and inform Torune and Yamanaka Fu to help Lord Danzo incite conflict between the Hidden Leaf Village and the Hidden Mist Village ninjas, and then help hunt down the Hidden Mist Village ninjas and meet up with Mitokado Homura, the envoy sent by the Hidden Leaf Village, so that Lord Danzo will first be accused of breaking the alliance between the Hidden Leaf Village and the Hidden Mist Village..."

"I understand what you mean!"

White Zetsu Awei was quite clever; he nodded quickly and waved to the group of Uchiha: "You all come with me! I'll take you to put on a good show!"

"..."

The Uchiha group had no choice but to follow.

This group of Uchiha had no idea what kind of monster this White Zetsu was.

However, they knew that Akihara Kagura would lead them to take revenge, that their surviving clansmen were all saved by Shisui on Akihara Kagura's orders, and that the surviving clansmen were in Akihara Kagura's hands, waiting for them to forge a path to survive in the ninja world again.

the other side.

The Land of Rain, the Hidden Village of Rain.

Despite the torrential rain, Danzo Shimura personally led a small team to visit Hanzo the Salamander, hoping to renew their old alliance.

however…

I didn't even see Hanzo's noodles.

"The Akatsuki organization hasn't been destroyed yet..."

Danzo Shimura frowned and had no choice but to lead his squad away, returning to the camp of the joint pursuit ninja force of Konoha and Kirigakure.

Since Danzo Shimura began investigating Obito Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha, he hadn't found any information until he finally learned that they had joined the Akatsuki organization and become its members.

As someone who had participated in the destruction of the Akatsuki organization, Danzo Shimura immediately thought of his old ally Hanzo the Salamander and came to Amegakure to meet with Hanzo the Salamander and renew their old alliance. Unfortunately, not only did he not receive an audience with Hanzo the Salamander, but he also incurred the hostility of many Amegakure ninjas.

After inquiring for a while, Danzo Shimura discovered that the Akatsuki organization had been nominally wiped out by Hanzo of the Salamander. Had he received false information?

To verify its authenticity...

Danzo Shimura even led a small team to dig up a grave at the Akatsuki's former base, which was said to contain the body of the Akatsuki's leader, but the grave turned out to be empty.

This…

Where was the Akatsuki wiped out?

Isn't Hanzo the Salamander just fooling himself?

Danzo Shimura had no choice but to keep requesting an audience, only to be repeatedly rejected. He could only return to his camp and continue to think of a solution.

however…

The ninjas of Kirigakure raised objections.

Hozuki Mangetsu, the leader of the Kirigakure ninja, immediately went to the tent where Shimura Danzo was resting and asked, "Lord Danzo, when will we finally find out their whereabouts? It's been over two months; we can't just keep coming back empty-handed, can we?"

"Where did we find nothing?"

Danzo Shimura squinted at Mangetsu Hozuki and questioned, "Didn't we already find out that Obito Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, and Kisame Hoshigaki all joined the Akatsuki?"

Where exactly is the Akatsuki organization?

"The entire Land of Rain knows that the Akatsuki has been destroyed!"

"The Akatsuki organization has not been destroyed!"

"Many years ago, I joined forces with Hanzo of the Salamander to fight against the Akatsuki organization. That organization was not destroyed back then, and it has continued to grow and thrive. That old man Hanzo of the Salamander is just deceiving himself..."

Shimura Danzo gripped his cane, completely confident in his judgment, and the evidence he had found proved that the Akatsuki organization had not been destroyed!

Danzo Shimura also found out Orochimaru's whereabouts and learned that Orochimaru had once joined the Akatsuki organization. He then sent someone to the Land of Rice Fields to contact Orochimaru.

"We just want to know when we'll be able to find the Akatsuki."

Hozuki Mangetsu revealed a set of sharp fangs and asked softly, "Lord Danzo, we've been out for over two months now, and many of us are getting restless. The ninjas of Kirigakure are bloodthirsty; they desperately need a battle..."

"I'll find out soon enough!"

Danzo Shimura, leaning on his cane, slammed it to the ground.

If this were in Konoha, no subordinate would ever dare to question his orders, not even Akihara Kagura. This brat Hozuki Mangetsu really doesn't want to live!

"I'm leaving now."

Hozuki Mangetsu took an apple from Danzo's table, turned and left the tent, leaving only the words: "We hope Lord Danzo can give us an answer as soon as possible..."

"rest assured."

Danzo Shimura watched him leave coldly, his own thoughts still swirling in his mind.

As soon as Orochimaru sent specific information about the Akatsuki, Danzo Shimura would have the Hidden Mist ninja and the Akatsuki fight to the death, and secretly eliminate Hozuki Mangetsu.

"Any news from the village?"

Danzo Shimura asked his two personal guards.

"No new orders yet..."

Shan Zhongfeng responded cautiously.

Aburame Torune chimed in, "We must be a lone force deep in the Land of Rain. The village doesn't know our whereabouts yet. Should we send someone to check on us...?"

"Go and arrange for people to go."

Danzo Shimura waved for them to leave.

"Yes."

Aburame Tori nodded.

When the two of them left the tent, they saw a group of people wearing Root-style equipment and masks arrive. Each of them had a pair of scarlet Sharingan eyes!

"This is... the Sharingan..."

"Take us to see Lord Danzo."

The leader of the group glanced coldly at Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu, seemingly knowing that they were Akihara Kagura's men, and said in a low voice, "This is also Lady Kagura's order."

"yes…"

Aburame Tori nodded.

Inside Shimura Danzo's tent.

"What...what's going on here?"

When the old man Shimura Danzo saw this group of Sharingan ninjas, he was startled and immediately asked who they were, because these Sharingan ninjas all had wooden spikes growing from their backs, clearly indicating that they were hiding a huge secret.

These guys…

They are all dual bloodline ninjas with Wood Release and Sharingan!

When did these ninjas appear in the village?

Before Shimura Danzo could even ask a question, the Sharingan ninjas spoke first with an extremely arrogant attitude, as if they were the reincarnation of the Uchiha clan: "Shimura Danzo, we are a secret ninja unit directly under the Hokage, and we have come here specifically to inform you."

"Under the orders of the Third Hokage, Danzo Shimura secretly used the cells of the First Hokage and the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan to illegally cultivate a dual bloodline ninja."

"This matter has been exposed. In order to avoid causing a riot in the village, Shimura Danzo must take responsibility for the crime of conducting illegal experiments and return to the village immediately to accept punishment."

"What?"

Danzo Shimura stared in bewilderment at the group of masked men with red eyes, his brows furrowing involuntarily. "What are you talking about? I... I don't quite understand. What's going on?"

Are you kidding me!

What on earth is going on?!

I know nothing about this, so why am I being forced to go back to the village to be punished?

As Shimura Danzo looked at the group of Sharingan ninjas with wooden spikes on their backs, a chill ran down his spine. Could these guys with two bloodline limits be experimental subjects secretly created by Sarutobi Hiruzen?

That bastard monkey...

Do you want him to go back to Konoha and take the blame for you?

Third update!

I'm a fan of Danzo Shimura. We can't let Lord Danzo become a rogue ninja without even realizing it!
