The Steady King of Konoha

"I have followed Sakumo-sama on several confidential missions." Kengo Aburame whispered.

Ye Shan's heart moved, and he looked at the other party with some scrutiny, but still did not speak.

"I know that you met secretly at Sakumo-sama's house that night, and I know what this means to you."

"It's a pity that Sakumo-sama didn't contact me, otherwise there would have been one more person in the yard that day."

Hayama squinted his eyes, carefully looked at Aburame Kengo lying beside him, and finally said: "Why are you bringing this up now?"

It has been several years since Hatake Sakumo passed away. It is of little significance to mention the past things again tonight. Moreover, even if the other party said it was what he said, it also reflects from the side that he is not a ninja who is truly loyal to Sakumo, at least not the kind that can be worthy of it.

The trustworthy ninja.

Aburame Kengo pointed to his nose and said slowly: "The Aburame clan is an out-and-out little ninja clan, and they joined the Hokage clan as early as the Second Hokage period. Sakumo-sama doesn't trust me.

This is taken into consideration.”

"As you may think, it is impossible for me to abandon my family's banner and join Sakumo-sama's side, but please do not be polite to Hayama-sama if you find me useful in the future."

"The Aburame clan is not famous for its strength, but it is a family that knows etiquette, justice, and integrity. I, Aburame Kengo, am also a ninja who knows how to repay kindness."

Ye Shan was noncommittal and stopped talking to the other party. Instead, he turned his gaze and looked elsewhere.

All the ninjas of the Hokage series are on guard against Hayama, wary that he will take advantage of his inability to seize the power of the village. Even Tonight Sakumo's old subordinates think so. But how do they know that the power seized is simple and crude, but it is not

What Hayama wants. Hayama is an extremely patient person. He is waiting for a truly suitable time. He will not blindly place all his bets before the time comes.

Ye Shan is only twenty-two years old this year. Youth is capital. He can afford to wait, but some people don't have much time.

All bottom-up coups are short-lived, and top-down excessive power is not only justified, but also makes certain things easier to do.

The two no longer communicated verbally, lying quietly in the darkness, waiting for the enemy to visit.

There was nothing to gain from lying down until daybreak. Just when Hayama was about to get up and return to the tower, a cluster of fiery red flares flew into the air with a sharp whistling sound, so that all the ninjas in the forest could clearly see it.

As for its bright color, it is the A-size area.

Area A is not far from area B, about 20 kilometers away. It would take about ten minutes to get there at Jonin's speed, which is a bit too long.

Hayama's face was as dark as water, and he stood up coldly. A large amount of thunder and lightning came out of his body, and his whole body turned into a bolt of lightning. He disappeared from Aburame Kengo's sight in just an instant, which made him secretly shocked.

In terms of speed alone, the current Hayama is still on par with Hatake Sakumo in his heyday. How could Aburame Kengo not be surprised, and at the same time, the thoughts in his heart became a little more determined.

No one wants to put all their eggs in the same basket. Although the Aburame clan is a small ninja clan, they also have their own small thoughts. Sarutobi Hiruzen is indeed old. In a few years, the power of the village will be

There will be a big reshuffle, and it won't stop because of someone's wishes. Naturally, we have to prepare for a rainy day.

The thunder attribute chakra stimulates the cells to bring unimaginable bursts and speeds to the caster in a short period of time. The seemingly long road was traversed in less than five minutes due to Ye Shan's all-out efforts.

The crackling thunder and lightning on the road scared many genin who were taking the exam and retreated far away, unable to even think of going forward to investigate.

When Hayama rushed to area A, the first thing he saw were the corpses of several genin. Judging from their tattered clothes, they were a group of unlucky ninjas from the Land of Thunder. Hayama couldn't help but feel even more angry.

point.

Okay, great, these intruders are really brave!

"You all stand down!"

After hearing Hayama's words, several Konoha ninjas no longer hesitated. After first using a fierce three-point attack to force their opponents back, they all left the battlefield and stood behind Hayama in a flash.

One, two...five, the nameless intruders slowly gathered together, all wearing masks without any pattern, covering their faces tightly.

Ye Shan squinted his eyes and said coldly: "I guess you won't tell me your origins obediently, but it doesn't matter. Once you enter the torture department, you will want to say everything!"

The leading man was tall and tall, carrying a long ninja sword on his back. Hearing this, he said in a deep voice: "The target is already in place and we'll start!"

Ye Shan was startled. Without waiting for the other party to make a move, Ye Shan turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed over without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, he was approaching, and then with a wave of his arms, the overwhelming fists enveloped the five intruders.

Unexpectedly, all this was in the enemy's calculations. In Ye Shan's horrified eyes, strings of runes rushed out from the soil. In just a moment, a strange rune pattern was formed, and then the spell was performed.

A bright light erupted from the crowd's shouts.

The few Konoha ninjas who reacted no longer held back their hands, and used wind escape, fire escape, and shurikens to attack the casters densely, trying to interrupt them, but they were a step too late.

When the bright light passed, the intruder and Hayama disappeared, leaving only a strange rune pattern still spinning, making the hearts of the Konoha ninjas present sink to the bottom.

An older Konoha ninja walked in and looked at the runes carefully. His body suddenly shook and he shouted: "This is the time and space ninjutsu?!"

"What?"

The remaining Konoha ninjas were shocked and hurried forward to check. After a moment, they all stood there with strange expressions on their faces. Although they were not sure whether this technique was really a time and space ninjutsu, the strong spatial fluctuations were

Since I couldn't deceive anyone, I couldn't help but keep my mouth shut and didn't dare to say another word.

In the entire ninja world, only Konoha Ninja Village has space ninjutsu and its users. This is something that everyone in the ninja world knows. So the question is, where did these five invaders learn the space ninjutsu?

Moreover, what the intruder said after seeing Hayama was clearly heard by several people. The other party was clearly targeting Hayama himself. As for attacking the genin and sabotaging the exam, it was simply a cover, a bait to induce Hayama to be fooled!

Several jounin knew that the matter was getting serious, but they all stood motionless. No one wanted to be the one who took the lead and reported the matter to the Hokage. Because they knew clearly that this matter might have been planned by the Hokage himself!

Otherwise, where did the time and space ninjutsu come from?

This matter has gone far beyond the scope of the chunin exam and involves the planning of the village's top management. These people are all family ninjas close to the Hokage line. Naturally, they know that keeping silent now is more useful than anything else.

Then a strange scene appeared. Many Konoha jounin gathered next to a space ninjutsu technique and remained silent, as if they were guarding something. Until a genin from the Uchiha clan reported this scene through special means.

It was given to Uchiha Fugaku to break the deadlock.

Uchiha Fugaku was extremely angry. He stood there with several ninjas from the security department and scolded him loudly, and the scolding was very unpleasant, but all the ninjas present turned a deaf ear, as if they had not heard anything.

But now, Uchiha Fugaku had no way to locate Hayama, so he could only return to the clan with a gloomy look, and issued a first-level wartime warning to be on guard against any eventuality.

For a time, the village was in a state of panic. Many ninjas from the Uchiha clan forcibly occupied the barrier class in full view of the public and announced that they would officially take over the defense mission of the village. Many ninjas were frightened and mistakenly thought that the Uchiha clan was here.

There's going to be a coup.

Ye Shan had no idea what was happening in the village. He only had time to activate the lightning on his body to the extreme, and then his eyes blurred and he felt a sense of vomiting. When he recovered, he came to a strange place.

.

This is a place with beautiful scenery. Pieces of peach blossoms are gently swaying in the spring breeze and exuding fragrance. A crystal clear stream flows happily. From time to time, fish will jump out of the water playfully and splash little by little.

The water blossoms look like spring and full of vitality.

But Hayama has no intention of enjoying this scenery. He just wants to kill people now, killing those clowns who have been jumping around secretly.

A smile appeared on his face, and he said with a seemingly cheerful expression: "Danzo-sama is so elegant that he chose such a beautiful place as his burial place."

At this time, Shimura Danzo was wearing a battle vest, with a middle-aged man dressed as a rain ninja standing beside him, and dozens of root ninjas half-kneeling behind him. Hearing this, he smiled coldly: "The scenery here is good, but it's a pity that

Chosen for you.”

"Baiyun Yeshan, you will die here today."

Hayama dissipated the lightning on his body indifferently, grabbed a falling peach blossom with interest, put it in front of his nose and asked with a smile: "Don't you care that the Uchiha clan was provoked into a coup?"

Danzo Shimura took out a scroll from his arms, threw it in front of Hayama, and laughed happily.

"This is a document stamped by the Hokage himself. You are already a traitorous ninja who can be punished by everyone!"

Hayama couldn't hold it back any longer, he looked up to the sky and laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes, and then he said: "When did the traitorous ninja return to the Hokage and have the final say? He said that I am a traitorous ninja and I am a traitorous ninja? It's so funny

Hahaha."

Danzo Shimura snorted and said: "In Konoha Village, whatever the Hokage says is what he says. If he says you are a traitor, you are a traitor. No one can question it!"

"Really?" Ye Shan covered his face with his hands and said in a deep voice, "You are so damn dark. You people are so damn dark."

"At the beginning, Sarutobi Hua Fang was evil, and you were also evil, Shimura Danzo. I didn't expect that the most evil person was that sanctimonious guy Sarutobi Hiruzen. To be honest, Senju Tobirama is not as evil as you."

"I, Baiyun Yeshan, would like to call you the blackest."

"Is this Hanzo from Rain Ninja Village? It's really hard for you to invite this person here."

Hayama put down his hands covering his face, slowly took off the Konoha-style vest, and asked curiously: "Do you really not have any bottom line in your heart?"

Danzo Shimura chuckled: "The bottom line is not for rubbish like you."

"Am I rubbish? Maybe you are right, I am really rubbish." Hayama muttered.

On the eve of a life-and-death battle, Hayama's thoughts involuntarily drifted to the World War II period, and he thought of the conversation he had with Hatake Sakumo in the tent that day.

That was a good day when he was promoted to jounin, and it was also the day when Hatake Sakumo revealed his ninja skills for the first time. Even though so much time has passed, Hayama still clearly remembers,

He remembered every word Hatake Sakumo said. Hatake Sakumo once said that ninjas must have love in their hearts, learn to fall in love with the village, and learn to fall in love with everyone in the village. Only in this way can ninjas not be violent.

A slave of power, truly mastering this inhuman power to do meaningful things.

Over the years, although Hayama did not agree with Hatake Sakumo's Shinobi Way, he followed it carefully, repeatedly giving in to the suppression of the village's top leaders, and even willing to patrol outside the village rather than truly take power.

Unfortunately, Hatake Sakumo's ninja skills do not seem to be recognized by everyone, and are even trampled on by others. Today's killing is the best proof.

Baiyun Yeshan asked himself that he had made a great contribution to the village. Even if he didn't get credit for his hard work, he still had it, but in exchange for it, he was killed.

Repaying kindness with kindness, repaying hatred with evil, children all know this. Why don't Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others not understand it?

Ye Shan was puzzled before, but now he suddenly understands. You should never try to use concessions and love to influence a person with a dark heart, because it is useless.

To deal with gangsters, you must use gangster methods. What a simple but insightful truth.
