A fighter from Hyuga

"Then combine earth jutsu with water jutsu to master the wood jutsu that my grandfather used to defeat Uchiha Madara."

Deliberately, Nawaki added emphasis on Uchiha Madara and Wood Release.

"Heh...it's as if you have mastered Wood Release now."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto curled her lips in disdain. So what if she mastered Wood Release?

The reason why the first generation Hokage was so strong was because the first generation itself was very strong.

And not because of Wood Release.

"Well, practice hard. If you can really master Wood Release, there won't be any big obstacles in becoming a Hokage.

After all, Wood Release has a special meaning to Konoha."

Before Nawaki could say anything, Shusi grabbed Nawaki's arm.

"But please note that Wood Release is only a way to utilize chakra. Your chakra itself is what determines the strength of Wood Release.

Therefore, basic practice is especially important. "

After finishing speaking, Xiuji continued to talk to the rope tree.

"Yeah! I understand."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Shu nodded heavily, and his eyes looked at Shusi with unshakable joy.

Although Shusi was preaching to him, the concern in his words made Nawaki feel very comfortable.

Moreover, based on Xiu Si's current achievements, he can preach to himself or something.

It's my honor, isn't it?

“Well, everyone should practice well in the next period of time. Nawaki and Mikoto will follow me to carry out missions in the future, so there is nothing much to say.

Minato and Kushina, we don't have much to do with each other, but if you sense natural energy or Kushina is about to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, remember to notify me."

Hearing this, Shuji loosened his grip on Nawase's arm and looked back at Minato and Kushina.

"Yes! It will definitely happen!"

Hearing this, Minato and Kushina spoke to Shuji almost at the same time.

Silently looking at Shuji in front of him, Minato's eyes were full of admiration.

Hinata Shuji is truly a senior who is worthy of respect.

To be honest, if it weren't for the similar age.

Minato is now even willing to respectfully call Shuji "teacher".

……

While Shuji and others continued to practice in the village, the Konoha ninjas on the battlefield of the Rain Country also began to rush towards Konoha in an orderly manner.

Victory, undoubted victory.

The Sand Village was directly defeated and even the most important Kage died.

Yuyin even took the initiative to seek peace and offered compensation that made Konoha very satisfied.

However, Danzo, the commander-in-chief of this war, was not happy.

Konoha achieved the final victory, which is certainly worth celebrating.

But when the war was about to end, the pressure from the other major hidden villages was like a thorn that pierced deeply into Danzo's heart.

Now, Danzo is eager to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen about his plan.

A plan that will allow Konoha to dominate the ninja world again!

"Lu Cheng, I'll leave this to you. I have something more important to discuss with the Hokage."

In the office of the Konoha camp, Danzo said to Shikamaru.

"it is good."

Shikama nodded upon hearing this, but did not question Danzo's intention.

After all, now that the war is over, there isn't much point in Danzo staying here.

Moreover, Danzo has already paid a lot in this war.

"Well, let's go."

After nodding and watching Nara Shikamai leave, a Flying Thunder God Kunai silently appeared in Danzo's hand.

The kunai spun three and a half circles and was thrown gently, and Shusi's figure instantly appeared in Danzo's office.

"Ah……"

With a faint smile on his lips, Danzo crossed his arms and silently looked at Shusi, who was wearing a white uniform, in front of him, without saying a word.

It looks like he doesn't work in the dark department?

Chapter 174, Establishment of Roots

"Sakumo... is pretty nice to you?"

With his arms folded across his chest, he slowly walked to the desk, leaned on it, and asked Shusi with a half-smile.

"Uh... it's pretty good."

Xiu Si smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this.

It's one thing that Sakumo gave me special care, but it's another thing that he was discovered by the Hokage's assistant.

"Hmph, take me back to the village."

Hearing this, Danzo just snorted, took two steps forward, and put his hand on Shuji's shoulder.

It was obvious that Danzo had no intention of pursuing the matter.

After all... is it possible for the Anbu to kick Shusi out?

I definitely want to do it, but Sarutobi Hiruzen will definitely not agree...

As for scolding Shusi or something else...

Are you kidding? The Anbu is the Hokage's direct subordinate unit. What does it have to do with me, the Hokage's assistant?

You know, scolding Xiu Si would destroy the relationship between me and Xiu Si.

"Ah."

Xiu Si nodded when he heard that, and the next moment, the two of them disappeared in the office.

"Well, I'm going to talk to the Hokage about something. You... handle it on your own."

Konoha, Danzo said to Shuji beside him.

"it is good."

Shusi nodded when he heard that, and his figure instantly disappeared in front of Danzo.

It's just... quite embarrassing.

Seeing this, Danzo just chuckled, put his hands behind his back, and strode towards the Hokage's office.

"monkey!"

Danzo pushed open the door of the Hokage's office and shouted at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sucking on his pipe in the office.

"Here, you have to call me Hokage-sama."

Slowly exhaling a puff of thick smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Danzo in front of him with some helplessness.

"Humph."

Hearing this, Danzo just snorted and turned around to close the door of the Hokage's office.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this, his eyes narrowed slightly and he reached out to take the pipe in his mouth.

"Dong dong dong."

The pipe knocked gently against the desk, making three crisp sounds.

It seems to be conveying some kind of message.

This was a notice for the Anbu on duty near the Hokage's office to leave.

From Danzo's actions, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew very well that Danzo was going to tell him something important.

Otherwise, Danzo had no habit of closing the door when he came to his place.

Well, if there is nothing going on, that bastard Danzo wouldn't come here very often.

Therefore, even the confidentiality of the dark department is very good.

However, the best way to keep it confidential is that only the person involved knows about it.

As of now, Danzo's position in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart is more trustworthy than that of the Anbu.

"Konoha is too weak right now."

Turning around and sitting in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo spoke directly to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"So, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not deny Danzo's words, but just asked Danzo.

"I want to experiment with the Shodaime Hokage-sama's cells."

Upon hearing this, Danzo did not hide anything and spoke directly to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Did you drink fake wine today?"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen blinked in confusion.

The next moment, a slightly forced smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, and he asked Danzo in a joking manner.

"I was serious."

Hearing this, Danzo spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen very seriously.

"I'm serious too."
