Konoha's Legacy Master

Konoha Village.

Hokage's Office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by the window, looking down at the two photos in his hands.

One is a former family photo, which includes Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Biwako, Shinnosuke and Asuma.

The other photo was taken by Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade and Sarutobi Hiruzen when the ninja team was established.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the people in the photo and sighed.

Looking back now, it was so beautiful before.

But why did it become like this?

Two sons died, and his wife broke up with him because of this. She stayed in the sealing class all day long, numbing herself with high-intensity work.

Orochimaru died, Tsunade and Jiraiya became rebel ninjas, and they were the wanted orders issued by themselves.

Why is this world suddenly targeting me? It seems that everything is deliberately difficult for me.

All the changes seemed to start when I got to know that little guy.

Uchiha Tunan.

This name became more and more profound in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart.

At first I just thought he was a loyal waste, but later his talent awakened and I planned to train him into a loyal tool.

Everything was fine at that time.

It seems that all the turning points started because he neglected him, which caused him to become jealous and kill Shinnosuke.

It was as if he was like a ruthless pair of scissors, cutting off all the bonds around him, until he was the only one left.

Sometimes, Sarutobi Hiruzen also thought that if Uchiha Tunan continued like this, maybe it wouldn't be such a bad thing.

But Uchiha Tunan seemed to be completely disappointed with himself after Tsunade's incident.

The object of my spiritual sustenance turned out to be Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also tried to retain him before, but Uchiha Toonan seemed to have changed into a different person and was indifferent to his efforts to retain him.

This gave Hiruzen Sarutobi the feeling of losing his wife and losing his troops.

However, now that the matter has come to this, Sarutobi Hiruzen has decided not to hesitate any longer.

Shinnosuke, Asuma, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade, just wait.

I have made enough arrangements. Even if that guy doesn't die on the battlefield, he will be dragged blind by the sequelae.

The day he becomes completely blind will be the time for me to avenge you.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the office door was violently pushed open.

I saw Danzo walking in aggressively, leading Koharu and Mito Kadeno.

Sarutobi Hiruzen put the photo into his pocket without leaving any trace.

He turned around and glanced at Danzo, who was full of anger, and the two advisors who bowed their heads in silence.

Danzo stretched out his palm and slapped it heavily on the table, shouting:

"Hiruzhan! Do you know what you are doing?

Do you really want to destroy Konoha?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Danzo coldly, then slowly returned to his seat and sat down.

He picked up the cigarette rod on the table, lit it, took a comfortable puff of smoke, and exhaled:

"Danzo, are you questioning my arrangement?

Pay attention to your tone.

Don’t forget, I am the Hokage!"

The tone of Sarutobi Hiruzen's last words seemed a little heavier.

Koharu and Mito Monobu, who were sleeping in front of them, were so frightened that their heads lowered even more.

Danzo smiled angrily and nodded repeatedly:

"Okay, then please explain.

Why were Namikaze Minato and elite Jonin from the Western Front sent to reinforce the Eastern Front?

There are Uchiha clan on the Eastern Front, but what they lack is the manpower to monitor the coastline.

Are you going to let Namikaze Minato and a group of elite jounin stand guard at the beach?

What the northern front lacks is high-end combat power that can withstand the Third Raikage and Jinchūriki, but you send a large number of ordinary ninjas to support.

You clearly know how serious the sequelae of Uchiha Tunan are.

But you haven't sent strong reinforcements yet. I think you want to avenge your personal revenge.

You are deliberately pushing Konoha into the fire pit."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and did not answer. Instead, he turned his attention to Koharu and Mito Kaden who were sleeping.

After sleeping, Koharu and Mito Kadenen were forced to speak out under the pressure of Sarutobi Hiruzen's gaze:

"Hiruzen, I also feel that this strategic arrangement is a bit inappropriate."

"Are you too tired from work recently? When you issued the order, you reversed the two fronts."

As a politician, Hiruzen Sarutobi would naturally not expose such obvious facts to others.

No matter what you do, you must think of a way out.

Any order must be well-founded so that no one can find fault with it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled smoke, shook the ashes and said:

"I have my plan. Since you asked, I might as well tell you."

As he said that, he took out a roll of maps from the drawer and spread it out on the table.

"There is a sea between us and the Kingdom of Water, so we cannot conduct normal battles at all.

If the other side wants to start a war, it must send advance troops to land and defend a piece of coast.

Logistics personnel will then carry out the construction of the stronghold base.

But we also know that the coastline is too long, and no matter how many people are sent to defend it, it will be extremely difficult.

On the contrary, a lot of troops will be wasted.

Of course, it's not just Konoha that has difficulty, Kirigakure is the same.

Because Kirigakure ninjas need to arrive by boat, one or two boats are definitely not enough.

Due to wind and waves on the sea and other reasons, these ships cannot get too close, otherwise it will be extremely easy to collide with each other.

Therefore, most of their ships travel separately, without meeting each other, and head towards the same destination."

Danzo lowered his eyes and kept observing the layout on the map, and said solemnly: "We all know this, so what."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath of cigarette, put the cigarette rod aside, stretched out his finger and pointed at a certain place on the map:

"You should all know that their maritime base is at the former site of the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

But the country of Whirlpool is still too far away from the coast.

It is still extremely difficult for them to attack.

But according to the latest spy information, they are quietly dispatching ninjas to sneak into the country of waves.

And has begun to build a new base in the Country of Waves.

You also know the location of the Country of Waves, the closest place to the land is only a few kilometers away.

As long as you choose a calm day, an ordinary chuunin can cross the strait directly."

Danzo raised his eyebrows and said with half belief and doubt: "So the purpose of you sending Minato Namikaze and the others is to snipe the Kirigakure ninjas in the Land of Waves."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw Danzo being bypassed, a proud smile appeared on his face and he picked up the cigarette rod on the side.

He leaned back on his seat and said leisurely while smoking:

"Not only that, we also want to establish a base in the closest place to the former sites of the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

Completely push the battlefield outside the Kingdom of Fire.

If possible, take advantage of this war to drive Kirigakure out of the former site of Uzumaki Country.

Then we won’t have to worry about Kirigakure’s actions for a long time to come.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of Mito Kadoyan and Koharu who were sleeping in the dormitory lit up, and they spoke one after another:

"Danzo, I think there is nothing wrong with Hiruzen's strategy.

Even if Namikaze Minato and the others went to the northern front, the war situation would just be a stalemate."

"Yes, we all fell into a misunderstanding before, thinking of defeating Kumogakure first and then defending Kirigakure.

But Hiruzen is a little further than we thought. We can directly occupy the former site of the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

This way Kirigakure will no longer pose a threat to us.

At that time, Konoha will be able to completely free up its hands and focus on Kumogakure."

Danzo always felt that something was wrong. He frowned and stared at the map in deep thought for a long time.

After a long time, Danzo's eyes narrowed and he discovered the problem. He immediately looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said:

"The strategy is correct, but you have ignored a fatal issue, which is the strength of both sides.

The old site of Whirlpool Country is not so easy to recapture, and the environment there is not conducive to the performance of Konoha ninjas.

What's more, the strength of the Eastern Front is the smallest among the three fronts.

And..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his hand and interrupted Danzo's words.

The whole body leaned forward slightly and said meaningfully:

"That position is very important to Konoha, and it is worth making some sacrifices."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Danzo immediately understood it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is going to force the Uchiha clan to fight Kirigakure to the death.

No matter what the outcome is, the Uchiha clan will be seriously injured, and Uchiha Tunan will probably not be easy either.

In this way, Sarutobi Hiruzen's goal was achieved.

The evil Uchiha clan...

Danzo hesitated for a moment, but in the end his hatred for the Uchiha clan took over.

As for Uchiha Tunan's problem, you can inform him privately and let him protect himself wisely.

He immediately turned around and walked towards the door without hesitation, and said in a cold voice:

"You are Hokage. Since you have good reasons, I will not stop you.

But you are responsible for all decisions you make.

I will always supervise you."

"Hoo~"

After Danzo and the other three left, Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a long sigh of relief.

This decision is indeed very risky, but if you don't do it, you can rely on Uchiha Tunan's military exploits.

When the liquidation comes after the war, with the support of the Uchiha clan, he will definitely have a huge say in Konoha.

And he is on Danzo's side.

In this way, your status will not be guaranteed.

My Konoha is Konoha.

After a long time, Hiruzen Sarutobi took out the battle report of the Northern Front from the drawer and looked through it.

The more you turn it, the more you frown.

What on earth are these guys like Yunyin doing? The opportunity has been given to them and they still haven’t taken action.

What's the use of shrinking the defense line and engaging in assassinations every day?

Obviously, as long as a few strong men besiege Uchiha Tunan and kill him, they can successfully regain the Yunokuni position.

Why not attack?

Do you think Konoha has a back-up plan?

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of this, and an idea immediately came to his mind.

After a long time, I heard Hiruzen Sarutobi say in a deep voice: "Here comes someone."

An ANBU opened the door, knelt down on one knee in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi and said: "Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen placed a scroll on the table and said: "I deliberately disclosed this information to the Kumogakure spy."

The ANBU immediately stood up, put the scroll into his ninja tool bag, nodded heavily and said: "Yes."

During the war, releasing wrong information has always been a common method used by major ninja villages.

This ANBU thought it would be the same this time.

But he could never have imagined that this scroll actually recorded the ability and side effects of Uchiha Tunan's Kaleidoscope...
