My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 391 Times have changed
Three days later, in World Two, in Konoha Village, in the Hokage's office.

"Click~"

The newly appointed Fourth Hokage, Danzo, was looking down at the documents, seemingly unaware that someone had come in.

"You're really quite bold."

Danzo No. 1 sat down in the chair opposite him and looked at his older self with a questioning gaze.

"The village is in imminent danger, and the rules of the Ninja Alliance forbid ninjas from killing each other indiscriminately..."

Danzo No. 2 gave a sarcastic smile. "You and I should know better than anyone what a ninja is."

"If you were in my position, what do you think you would choose?"

“Times have changed.” Danzo No. 1 didn’t answer directly, but instead slammed the documents in his hand onto the table. “The matter of reporting to the prison shouldn’t require the enforcement team to handle it, right?”

"Or are you going to resist the Shinobi Alliance's law enforcement team in your capacity as the Fourth Hokage?"

If he were in his shoes, he would undoubtedly cultivate an organization that appears to be unrelated to Konoha Village within the framework of the Ninja Alliance to act as a covert operation.

Only a fool would try to compete honestly with others by simply working hard when they are at a clear disadvantage and cannot participate in the competition themselves.

Rogue ninjas are very suitable as tools, especially since they are high-ranking members of Konoha Village No. 2. Knowing part of the Naruto Chronicle, they can easily recruit some useful individuals.

For example, the Third Mizukage, and Kakuzu.

Unfortunately, a loser is always a loser.

Failure is undoubtedly wrong, victory is acceptable to everyone, but only the strong can bear defeat.

Clearly, Danzo, the second-ranked member of the Shinobi Alliance, is not considered a strongman.

Well, speaking of which, the other party was unlucky. The matter of Ishinoji shouldn't have caused any immediate problems. After cleaning up the mess and finding a way to silence Kakuzu, it would have been fine.

As a result, the conflict between Ishigami and Iwagakure was escalated, and then Sasuke Uchiha inexplicably stumbled upon the gathering, which happened to be near Link's sleeping laboratory. After some investigation, he followed the clues and arrested him.

When bad luck strikes, even drinking cold water can cause problems.

Of course, some things are not coincidences, such as why some people survived, and why the survivors made a big fuss about it, haha.

The only truly unlucky thing was that Uchiha Sasuke was a complete accident.

Danzo No. 2 closed his eyes, took a deep breath, abandoned the idea of ​​taking action, and opened his eyes to say, "I had Ishinoji provoke Iwagakure because they instigated the Hyuga clan to leave the village."

As he spoke, he used the Net to send the evidence to his reincarnated self on the other side.

"You should know that this matter won't harm Iwagakure at all, right?" Danzo No. 1 flipped through the evidence.

It's pointless. The Iwagakure ninja who went to the Hyuga clan's territory to sow discord wasn't Onoki himself. It's irrelevant to investigate. At worst, they'll just impose a fine or find someone to take the blame.

Moreover, the Iwagakure ninja who instigated the Hyuga clan was killed by the Anbu before he even left Konoha. Otherwise, where would the memories have come from?

They probably planned to smear Konoha Village from the start, and they processed the memories very well. After being captured, they only had recent memories left, making it impossible to trace back to the higher-ups.

Onoki simply claimed that the guy volunteered to cause trouble, so who could investigate?
Even if they're not strict enough in disciplining their children, at most they'll be fined, but not heavily.

"Huh?" Danzo No. 1 made a deliberately surprised sound when he saw the evidence behind him.

The later part of the images and memories are not the memories of the Iwagakure ninjas, but those of a certain Hyuga... In that case, the evidence sent over will have some value.

Both the Hyuga clan and the Iwagakure village can use evidence to do certain things.

I see, so it's a transaction?

He understood immediately, realizing that his other self was trying to trade benefits for the Ninja Alliance's handling of the matter.

Danzo No. 2 lowered his eyelids, looked at the documents, and said, "I can open my memories to prove that I have no intention of harming Link."

“Your situation is not serious. The Yamanaka clan has investigated the memories of all those arrested by Ishigami,” Danzo No. 1 said seriously. “Ishigami’s gathering at Kichijoji was a coincidence, but their deliberate attack on Iwagakure ninjas and their repeated attacks on Shinobi Alliance members during the rescue operation in World Three will certainly be dealt with.”

Getting close to Link is just the beginning; by using his memories to investigate, he can discover that Stone Temple did a lot of dirty work for Konoha in the past.

The mere act of attacking ninjas from other ninja villages and organizations, and plundering precious resources and ninjutsu from World Three, constitutes a serious violation of the rules of the Ninja Alliance.

This is a classic case of something being weighed down and never stopping. The struggles between the major ninja villages and smaller organizations have never ceased. Everything that happens in World Three can be attributed to accidents. Everyone tacitly agrees not to escalate the conflicts and to resolve all problems in World Three.

Deaths and injuries don't matter at all. Just like the Chunin Exams of the past, if a ninja dies, he/she just dies.

The root cause of the major incident involving the Iwagakure ninja attack by Ishigami was that the problem wasn't completely resolved. The survivors reported the incident to the media, which was probably something Onoki didn't want to escalate.

But after the media reported it, he had no choice but to stand up and protest to the Ninja Alliance.

After all, they were in the right.

"Most of them will face the punishment of having their chakra sealed and being sent to prison, with sentences ranging from ten to thirty years."

Danzo No. 1 uttered a statement from an internal discussion within the Executive Committee. This statement, when made to a prisoner, falls into the category of "anything goes," and can be interpreted as using the length of imprisonment to deter prisoners from resisting: "If you do this, due to the egregious consequences, you may have to stay in prison until you die."

"Given your good attitude in admitting your mistakes, the enforcement team can give you a week to explain all your crimes and a month to select the next Hokage."

"If there are other good performances, such as assisting the law enforcement team in solving certain cases, the sentence may be appropriately reduced."

Danzo No. 2 looked over with slightly surprised eyes, having understood the other party's implication.

What good behavior is nothing more than exposing other people's crimes?
The Ninja Alliance has numerous regulations governing ninja combat, brawls, interference with ordinary people, and battles in towns. However, it is impossible to monitor everyone. The Luo Wang intelligence network can spread throughout the Second World, making every ordinary person a source of information. The Third World is a lawless place.

However, this lawless area was tacitly maintained by all the ninja organizations under the Ninja Alliance. No one exposed what was happening there, creating a situation where the authorities would not investigate unless the people complained.

The other party's current intention is that if he breaks this consensus and exposes others' illegal crimes, he can get a reduced sentence.

They even gave him some time to gather evidence, could it be...?

Danzo No. 1 smiled slightly. He didn't say anything, nor did he post any messages on the Luo Net. "The above is the provisional handling method of the Shinobi Alliance Executive Committee for the Fourth Hokage, Shimura Danzo."

After saying that, he turned and left the room.

They still haven't realized the problem.

He thought that the era of ninjas being mere tools was over. The Ninja Alliance had set so many rules and given them so much time to adapt. Now, it was time to completely resolve some issues.

Times have changed; the ninjas of the past will never return.
