Naruto: Who made him a ninja?.

Chapter 91: Danzo-sama's fame shakes the ninja world! ( words, please subscribe)
"All repairs have been completed, Lady Tsunade."

"Thank you for your hard work."

"That money."

"Don't worry, I'm in Konoha. I can't miss you. I'll have this brat deliver it to you tomorrow!"

Outside the Senju ancestral home, Tsunade looked at the workers in front of her with a dark face, especially when she saw their uncertain eyes, she became even more unhappy.

Could it be that the news of him escaping from his gambling debts has already reached Konoha?

But this is not the point. The point is the person who caused all this!
"You bastard, do you know how much money you've caused me to lose?!"

After these workers left in doubt, Tsunade could no longer hold back and grabbed Hidezawa's collar and questioned him loudly.

"And they don't even trust me. Damn it, am I that bad?"

"Tsunade-sama."

Jingyin advised somewhat awkwardly, but in fact, she couldn't help but think in her heart, this kind of thing is not strange, right?

But she didn't dare say this out loud, as she was worried that she would be kicked out by Tsunade.

"Xiu Ze is still not feeling well, so let's not make things difficult for him."

"I think he's feeling pretty comfortable, right?"

Tsunade shook her head in disdain and glared at Hidezawa in front of her.

"You don't have to work at all. Jingyin takes care of you during the day, Xiyan takes care of you at night, and there are a lot of people visiting you. How can you call this uncomfortable?"

I didn't say I felt uncomfortable.
Xiu Ze couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he still forced a smile.

"Teacher, there's nothing I can do. After all, I didn't expect my body to be in such a state."

The moment Xiu Ze raised his body to LV11, what happened was indeed a bit outrageous.

He had always been curious about what would happen next, and now he knew.

The prompt given by the system actually explains the problem very well, that is, the alienation of blood!

“The fusion of chakra to create bloodline limits and bloodline elimination can cause the bloodline to undergo mutation, allowing this ability to remain in the bloodline and be passed down.

And this power actually also acts on the body. Just as I guessed, constantly improving the overall quality of the body is not only a transformation of the body.

Similarly, this can also be considered a special transformation of the bloodline!"

The continuous improvement of the body drives so many things.

For example, normally, a strong body plus normal mental strength can also bring about a huge amount of chakra.

However, Xiu Ze was not sure whether he could change his bloodline. After all, what made him different was that he was constantly improving by relying on "plug-ins".

It seems natural that this would bring more.

"Or is it really difficult for anyone to truly surpass this limit and reach my level?"

There are actually people who constantly exercise their bodies, like that guy Akai.

Although Xiu Ze didn't have much contact with Akai, he was still quite clear about his "glorious deeds".

His physical fitness is also top-notch, and this exaggerated physical fitness also enabled him to kick Uchiha Madara into that state after opening the Eight Gates!
On the other hand, his father's use of the Eight Gates of Ninja Art was completely incomparable to what he was able to perform, even though he did manage to shatter the Seven Ninja Swordsmen's resolve.
However, Akai's training obviously focused more on the strength, toughness, coordination and other aspects of his body, unlike Xiu Ze's thorough and comprehensive improvement.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Xiu Ze did not have a reference object, so he was not sure whether it was caused by the system or the improvement of the body's complete balance.

"But no matter what, this is my biggest gain this time!"

Xiu Ze was satisfied. As for the improvement in other skills, although he was happy, it was not as strong as this one.

In fact, sometimes he couldn't help but think about a question, that is, what level would the strength capabilities of other people be if converted into the system's level?
But after thinking about it, he found that this question seemed difficult to answer.

Because the system emphasizes comprehensiveness, but in reality, everyone has their own shortcomings, or particularly strong areas.
"So, I am the most unique numerical monster!"

Feeling comfortable, Xiu Ze didn't care that Tsunade was pulling his clothes, but Tsunade seemed to have thought of something and let go.

"Really? Even though he seems to be in incredibly good health, he's actually quite weak."

Tsunade muttered something, but she felt that Xiuze's bloodline must have been improved again, but he himself could not keep up, which led to this result.

Thinking of this, Tsunade's expression became more serious.

"You should pay attention to the changes in your body and the reaction of your chakra in the future. If there are any unusual movements, you must tell me, understand?"

"I understand, teacher."

Xiu Ze nodded. Although the improvement was great, he still needed to be more careful next time.

After all, such an improvement would make him weak for a period of time, and this feeling would be like 'lack of energy and blood', or 'lack of essence'.

Fortunately, as long as I get enough rest and replenish my nutrition, I will be able to recover, and then I just need to adapt to my new body.

However, he now has a question.

"How should I calculate my current physical strength? Can I compare with Senju Hashirama?"

Xiu Ze was also very curious, but unfortunately he had never seen Hashirama Senju. At most, he could only use White Zetsu's body to get a rough idea of ​​it.

"Really? It's really expensive to repair all the windows, glassware, and some of the places you damaged in the house."

Tsunade was still shaking her head helplessly, and she glared at Hidezawa.

"I will keep your future ANBU allowance as compensation for your sabotage this time!"

"Forehead"

Xiu Ze was stunned for a moment and handed over his wallet. How could this be possible?
But his eyes turned and he instantly thought of something.

"Teacher, I have something I want to talk to you about in private."

"Oh?"

Tsunade raised her eyebrows, and she put her arms around Hidezawa's neck and walked outside.

"Jingyin, go back and pack up. I'll be back soon."

"Yes."

Shizune nodded. She didn't care what Shuze wanted to say to Tsunade. She planned to clean up and pick up Karin from school.

Karin has now entered the ninja school. After all, she is still a child. Even if her family can teach her, it would be better to let her get to know more people of her age.

"What do you want to say?"

When they arrived at an open space in the ancestral home, Tsunade let go of Hidezawa and asked in confusion with her arms folded across her chest.

"That's right, teacher."

Xiu Ze organized his words and spoke in a low voice.

“You know we have a team specifically responsible for investigating Uchiha Obito, but the team only has five members like me.

Uchiha Obito is elusive and is now in an organization full of renegade ninjas, which greatly increases the difficulty of our investigation."

"So, you want to ask the old man for money?"

Tsunade seemed to understand what Hidezawa meant. She thought about it and nodded.

"Indeed, this mission is difficult. It would be helpful if you could offer more compensation. This way, you can earn more money."

"Teacher, please listen to me."

Hidezawa stopped immediately, he knew Tsunade was thinking wrongly.

"What I mean is, we need more manpower, more people outside who can provide us with intelligence!"

"An outside informant?"

Tsunade frowned, but didn't object. Anyone would use this kind of person.

The only problem is that it’s hard to find such people, because loyalty is a very important issue.

"Do you have a goal?"

"To be precise, the price has already been agreed upon."

Hidezawa smiled and looked at Tsunade who raised an eyebrow and then he spoke immediately.

"That guy is generally trustworthy, but the details need to be investigated, and he is a very powerful person.

I left Flying Thunder God on him, so normally he won't cause any trouble.

The price I negotiated with him was 300,000 per month, but teacher, can it be changed when reporting this matter?"

"That's not good?"

Tsunade's eyes lit up, but her expression showed some struggle.

"We can ask Danzo-sama for it. After all, Danzo-sama has the Root in his hands, so he will have plenty of funds."

Xiu Ze immediately followed in a low voice, then he raised his head and asked softly.

"Teacher, you don't want to be unable to pay back the money for repairing the ancestral home this time, right?"

"."

"Teacher, you don't want the remaining debt collectors to come after you spend the money I gave you, right?"

"."

“Teacher, you don’t want to either.”

"Change it to 500,000! I want 150,000!"

"."

"You haven't come to see me for a while, Xiu Ze."

In Konoha, in an office in the Hokage Building, Danzo Shimura looked at Hidezawa in front of him and spoke in a somewhat cold voice.

"Danzo-sama, as you know, I've been very busy lately, and I've also been recovering from some issues myself."

Hidetsuko appeared very calm in front of Danzo. He bowed slightly and spoke calmly.

To be honest, if possible, Hidezawa really doesn't want to see Danzo's face.

However, considering that he really had something to discuss with Danzo, he still came.

"is it?"

Danzo certainly knew that Hidezawa had been recuperating during this period, and he originally thought that this was arranged by Sarutobi Hiruzen!

After all, Hidezawa's performance was too outstanding. First, he awakened the Wood Release, and then he exposed Uchiha Obito's identity.

Then he even captured the son of the Fourth Raikage and the Third Tsuchikage. It can be said that in the two years since Hidezawa left the Root, this kid's growth was beyond his imagination!
Such growth made Danzo realize that Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely put more energy on this kid.

Even though he controlled Hidezawa's curse seal, even though he still had Yakushi Nono in his hands, even though Hidezawa seemed to have always been loyal.

But Danzo was always uneasy, after all, he was not Hokage!
And now, Sarutobi Hiruzen has already set off with Huang Tu to go to the Land of Grass to meet Ohnoki. He also has the opportunity to enter the Hokage Building to cooperate with Utatane Koharu and others to handle matters.

As a result, he was still thinking of taking the opportunity to meet Xiu Ze, but then he heard that the boy was on leave due to illness!

To be honest, Danzo really wondered if this was arranged by Sarutobi Hiruzen and he deliberately made it like this.

"Yes, Lord Danzo."

Xiu Ze nodded seriously.

"Maybe my Wood Release isn't proficient enough yet, which led to this result, but I've made some progress.

Now that I feel a little better, I will come to see Danzo-sama immediately, and I hope that Danzo-sama can understand. "

"Um"

Danzo looked at Xiu Ze quietly for a moment, and finally nodded.

He could accept this explanation, although he didn't know much about Xiu Ze. After all, he didn't know much about Wood Release.

However, it is normal that Wood Release is a little special, because it is Konoha’s most powerful force!
"I'm very happy that you have this heart. You are the one I trained, and I am very satisfied that you will always remember me. As long as you don't forget your identity, you will definitely achieve greater success."

You're just talking nonsense. What's the future of hanging out with you?
Xiu Ze secretly complained in his heart, but he still nodded slightly to show that he understood.

"Your suggestion is good. Sending me to Sunagakure will definitely make Ōnoki hesitate."

Seeing that Hidezawa was being honest, Danzo changed the subject, and his expression suddenly turned ugly again.

"But Ōnoki is a lot weaker than I thought. It's a shame he's decided to negotiate now."

"This is a good thing. After all, it can avoid war."

Hidetsugu said in a low voice, but when he thought of the mentality of the old man Danzo, he immediately added a sentence.

"But Danzo-sama can actually continue to do something. After all, this matter is beneficial to Danzo-sama."

"Oh?"

Danzo frowned. He didn't know what Xiuze meant, but he knew that Xiuze had always been very sensitive in this regard.

"go on."

"In fact, the Third Tsuchikage is now negotiating with Konoha, and the focus will be on the interests of the Land of Grass. This is why I brought Huangdi back."

Xiu Ze nodded and expressed his thoughts.

"But Ōnoki won't give up easily. This negotiation may last a long time, or it may end with Konoha's compromise.

It's not that Hokage-sama will give up his interests, but our vested interests may become less, and it will be difficult to highlight the value of Danzo-sama."

"you mean"

Danzo suddenly understood something, and his eyes lit up slightly.

"Danzo-sama, we all learned one thing during the Third World War: what you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get at the negotiation table either."

Xiu Ze smiled, lowered his head and continued in a low voice.

“Therefore, sometimes applying a certain amount of pressure can promote the negotiation process and also demonstrate a certain degree of influence.

However, there are risks in doing so, as the influence is sometimes too great and may lead to unnecessary suspicion."

"Humph, I know!"

Hidezawa's words were very obscure, but how could an old fox like Danzo not hear them?
But Danzo didn't care at all. He was attracted by the other meaning in Hidezawa's words.

No matter what the outcome of the negotiations between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Ōnoki is, it may have nothing to do with him, and in the end it will only be attributed to Sarutobi Hiruzen's achievements.

Even though there was a request for him to go on a diplomatic mission to Sunagakure, in the end this task was not completed, which was totally not enough for him!
His goal is to become Hokage, he needs influence, achievements, and enough chips to fight for it.

"So this time, I must let everyone know about this matter."

Use your influence to add bargaining chips to the negotiations, forcing Ohnoki to make a choice as soon as possible, while gaining more benefits for Konoha.

All of this perfectly fits what Danzo is thinking, so for him it is very necessary to do this!

As for being suspected?
He was not afraid. He even dared to assassinate his old friend. This suspicion had no effect on him at all.

Besides, as long as the goal is achieved, what does this suspicion matter?
"It seems that I really need to contact those people in the Sand Village. After taking my money, it's time to do something."

Danzo finally made up his mind. After Xiu Ze contacted them last time, Danzo really gave them a lot of money as compensation.

He felt a little pain in the ass about the money, but considering that he had an ally who supported him in becoming Hokage, it was not a big deal.

And now, it’s a good opportunity for them to contribute!
"Then congratulations to Lord Danzo, your fame will surely spread throughout the ninja world!"

The smile on Xiu Ze's face became much brighter, and he immediately gave a compliment.

"I don't care about being famous in the ninja world. All I want to do is become Hokage and lead Konoha onto the right path."

Danzo glanced at Hidezawa and corrected him indifferently.

"Yes, it is to lead Konoha onto the right path."

Xiu Ze nodded immediately, and then he spoke again.

"There is one more thing I need to report to Lord Danzo. Lord Danzo should know that we are investigating Uchiha Obito, but we don't have enough manpower.

Therefore, I intend to use this opportunity to develop some external intelligence personnel and have them provide us with more intelligence."

"That's how it should be. There are only five of you. What can you do?"

Upon hearing this, Danzo nodded immediately. Intelligence work requires casting a wide net. Even if they are people from outside, they can be used as long as they can provide intelligence!
"But why did you ask me this question?"

"The order given to me by Danzo-sama is to retrieve Uchiha Obito's Sharingan if possible."

Xiu Ze gave the answer respectfully.

"So, I think that although this matter needs to be reported to the Hokage, it also needs to be reported to Danzo.

Furthermore, I would like to find a separate informant who can do something specifically for Danzo-sama, so that we can proceed more easily."

"Is that so?"

Danzo raised his eyebrows and reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen, so a lot of information and things were shared.

A single line can allow them to know more things and act in advance and independently.

"Do you have someone chosen?"

"Yes, a person who is already in that organization. I left Flying Thunder God on him and also negotiated the price. That is..."

"What is his position within the Akatsuki organization, and what is his asking price?"

"Not a core member, wandering around the Grass Country, following Sasori and Kakuzu, but there's a chance I'll get to know more. The asking price is 800,000 ryo per month."

Hidezawa asked for a huge sum of money. He told Tsunade that it was 500,000 taels, but he increased the amount to extort money from Danzo!
Is it outsourcing? The prices are fluctuating. Xiu Ze plans to take kickbacks.

"Eight hundred thousand ryo?" Danzo pondered for a moment. "Since it's within the Akatsuki organization, it must be valuable. I'll give you one million ryo to take care of this matter!"

"Huh?" This time it was Xiu Ze's turn to be stunned. He thought he had added too much, but he didn't expect Danzo to give even more?
For a moment, Xiu Ze felt that he should have shouted more.

But it was only for a moment, and he became happy again. There was so much inheritance from the roots. Wouldn't he be rich if he inherited it in the future?

"I understand."

Thinking of this, Xiu Ze became even more respectful.

"I will definitely take care of this matter, Master Danzo."

Shimura Danzo was a 'man of action'.

When he is sure of something and it is beneficial to him, he will start his action without hesitation.

Especially now that the Third Hokage has met with Ōnoki in the Land of Grass, this has given him great freedom, but it has also made him feel that his time may not be long.

In that case, he immediately asked Ryoma Aburame to set off for the Sand Village with his handwritten letter.

As for the money Xiu Ze needed, he did not hesitate at all.

One million taels per month is not a problem for him at all!
But he was satisfied, while some people were very dissatisfied.

"Damn Danzo, are you here again?"

In an artificial pond in the Sand Village, Ebizo, who was fishing, looked at the letter in his hand with an extremely ugly expression.

Chiyo, who was fishing with him, couldn't help but sigh when she saw this scene.

"Does that guy want us to take action?"

"That's right, sister."

Ebizo nodded. His sister was more experienced and ruthless than him in handling some things.

"It seems that Konoha has made up its mind to attack Kusagakure Village, or that Shimura Danzo has ideas about that place."

"Shimura Danzo is also from Konoha, which is not surprising, especially since he wants to be the Hokage."

Chiyo nodded. In fact, there was news in the ninja world some time ago that Danzo Shimura was going to visit the Sand Village.

At the same time, there are also problems in the Land of Grass and Huang Tu's sudden visit to Konoha. Everyone can see the twists and turns here.

To put it bluntly, Konoha wants to use its ally Sunagakure as a gun!

"So how do we deal with this?"

Ebizo asked for advice humbly, after all, she was his sister, so there was no shame in it.

"Ignore it, or."

"Although Danzo Shimura is a villain, he also provided money and some necessary information, whether it was Yura or Sasori."

Chiyo knocked on the table and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Without that money, our life is not easy now, and Yuliang's problem cannot be discovered. As for Scorpion,
Forget it, let's get down to business. We really need to respond in these areas so that Danzo and Konoha can contribute more."

"Did he do that?"

Ebizo frowned, thinking that this seemed to be too easy for Danzo, but Chiyo on the side sighed.

Turning to look at her brother, Chiyo spoke helplessly.

"You, whenever I ask you something, you don't want to think too much about it. Are you always thinking about going fishing?"

"Hey, sister."

Ebizo was a little embarrassed, but Chiyo didn't care, after all, she was her older sister.

“We can agree to this with Danzo, he wants allies and we want money, and the Yondaime isn’t doing well right now.

After mobilizing for so long, he ended up with nothing and was even taken advantage of by Konoha. This was his biggest failure.

So he needs to cheer himself up, or in other words, he needs something to prove himself, whether he can do it or not."

"prove yourself."

Ebizo frowned, and instantly he understood what his sister meant.

"Sister, what I mean is, we should use this matter to provoke the Fourth Kazekage and see what choice he will make?

He agreed to Danzo's request and made certain arrangements for Iwagakure to see if he could tear off a piece of meat.

Or do you decide not to move and end up with nothing?"

"Yes."

Chiyo smiled, but the smile was somewhat sad.

"We are just making suggestions. If Konoha moves and Sunagakure doesn't, all the losses will be his.

If there is no gain from the action, it means that he handled it improperly, especially since Konoha benefited from the Land of Grass.

If we take action and gain benefits, then that is our credit, after all, it was us who made the proposal.

It’s just about the handling of public opinion on this matter.”

"I understand, sister."

Ebizo has completely understood what his sister means. The key point is to publicize it.

Whether to move or not, succeed or fail, actually all depends on the tone of the propaganda.

Even if they fail to take action, as long as the publicity is not questionable, they can still create momentum, which can be regarded as a bit of "comfort" for their big sponsors.

But then, he felt sad again.

"Sister, the Fourth Hokage is indeed not that great, but is it really right for us to do this? We are being led by the nose by a person from another village, Sunagakure."

"I understand. This is our sadness."

Chiyo knew what her brother meant, she sighed and shook her head.

"Now is a difficult time. All we can do is to strive for the best interests of the village. And our fourth generation is really hard to describe.
The Third World War is the best proof. Maybe we need some fresh blood, maybe we need to change ourselves.

Ye Cang is a very good girl, and she has learned a lot from me."

"she?"

Ebizo frowned. Ye Cang had been taken away by his sister to study a long time ago, and he didn't ask what happened.

But now his sister suddenly said this, could it be that she is very optimistic about Ye Cang?
"It was just an attempt, and Sunagakure feels ashamed of her."

Chiyo seemed to know what her brother was thinking. She sighed helplessly and spoke.

“Besides, I don’t want this guy Danzo to win, so some positions are not suitable for us anyway.

I think you should know this better than me, right?"

Chiyo's words made Ebizo silent for a moment, but soon he smiled with relief.

"You're truly worthy of being my sister. You're more decisive and ruthless than me in many things. I really can't compare to you."

"You, please stop making fun of me. We are both old."

Chiyo smiled and shook her head, she said meaningfully.

"What we can do now is to try our best to help this village and find a suitable future.

Okay, stop talking, look, your fishing rod is moving, there is a fish on the hook."

"What's going on? Why would Danzo do this?"

In the Land of Grass, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the report handed over by the Anbu with a somewhat unhappy expression.

Ōnoki agreed to negotiate with Konoha, and Sarutobi Hiruzen took the opportunity to stop Danzo's plan to go to Sunagakure.

After all, they just want to put pressure on others, not to really start a war. It’s enough to just pretend.

But now Danzo's move really made him feel a little dissatisfied. Isn't this going against him?

Although Danzo did go against him all the time.
But when it comes to major issues, Danzo can at least uphold the principles of maintaining Konoha. What is this guy doing now?
"Shikaku, what do you think?"

After pondering for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and looked at Nara Shikaku.

Shikaku was someone he trusted the most, and the Nara clan's amazing intelligence could always help him at critical moments.

Whenever he encountered something troublesome, he would always ask for Shikaku's advice.

"Hokage-sama, I can't comment on this matter."

Nara Shikaku's mind works very quickly. He has already thought of a lot of things, so he can only be careful in what he says and does.

"However, assisting the Lord may be helping us gain more benefits in our own way."

"Um"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and nodded. He could also understand some key points.

Danzo wanted to use this method to promote Konoha's negotiations this time, and even gain more benefits for Konoha!

Admittedly, this was not a bad thing, but it also disrupted some of his plans. He did not want to have any major conflicts or disagreements with Ohnoki.

"How far do you think Ohnoki will compromise? Will he choose some extreme measures?"

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen had some ideas in his mind, he still planned to ask.

"He will definitely be dissatisfied with Konoha, but this is inevitable. The yellow earth is in our hands and this is something that cannot be changed."

Nara Shikaku did his duty, he whispered.

"So even if the bad feelings deepen again, the impact won't be that great, and we don't know how far the Sunagakure side will go.

Perhaps it was just a bluff, or perhaps they really intended to take advantage of the opportunity to seize the actual interests of Xiong Zhiguo and other places from Yanyin."

The Fourth Kazekage was a guy full of adventurous spirit, which can be seen from the outbreak of the Third World War.

This guy is in trouble both internally and externally now, maybe he really wants to give it a try.

After all, they were tricked by Konoha before, and now that Konoha is holding up Iwagakure, it is normal for them to act as a jackal in the back.

"However, I think both Hokage-sama and the Sandaime Tsuchikage would be willing to make things bigger."

While Sarutobi Hiruzen was lost in thought, Nara Shikaku spoke again.

"The Hokage-sama will naturally not start a war for the sake of peace, and the Third Tsuchikage will probably not be willing to get stuck in a quagmire so that Kumogakure can benefit.

Therefore, we still need to continue the talks, but I am afraid that Hokage cannot retreat at will, after all, given the current situation."

"I see."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, feeling a little uncomfortable as well.

What Danzo did was indeed for Konoha, but it also put him on the fire!

If he made any compromise in such a favorable situation, Danzo would definitely be disgusted by him.

If he took the opportunity to bite into the interests of Kusagakure Village, he would also seriously offend Iwagakure Village. At this point, he would be in a dilemma.

And he was 100% sure that Danzo didn't care at all about pushing him to this point, Danzo only thought that he was right.

He might even have done it on purpose, as he has always been working hard to become Hokage!

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and turned his head to ask.

“So, do we need to make up for it somewhere else?”

"It all depends on Hokage-sama's orders."

Nara Shikaku nodded, but then he murmured something calmly.

"But the Sand Village responded so quickly. Besides being motivated by interests, perhaps they really want to be a good ally."

"Um"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded after hearing this, but the discomfort in his heart became even more severe.

Of course he knew that this was Nara Shikaku giving him a hint, and he was also a little curious now.

The response from Sunagakure was so quick. Are they really pursuing their own interests, or is it the influence of Danzo himself that is at work?

"Danzo, what on earth have you done behind my back?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured wearily. This old friend of his seemed a little hard to understand.
"You bastard, Konoha actually dared to do this?"

In the Land of Grass, inside the Iwagakure camp.

Ohnoki was also extremely angry when looking at the report in his hand. In his opinion, Konoha was so unscrupulous because they probably thought they had the upper hand over Iwagakure!

It was basically an established fact that Kusagakure Village was bitten, but Konoha was so greedy that it really infuriated Ohnoki.

But Ohnoki also knew that he had to stay calm now. The more anxious he was, the more likely he would make wrong judgments.

"Any reaction from Konoha?"

After a while, Ohnoki asked in a low voice, and the Anbu next to him shook his head slightly.

"Tsuchikage-sama, there has been no clear response yet, but one organization has sent a scroll claiming the mission is complete."

"Organization? Akatsuki?"

Ohnoki was very unhappy and wanted to see what was happening in Konoha, but then he received information from Akatsuki.

Didn’t this organization fail in its mission? Why are they still looking for me?
Fortunately, Ohnoki quickly figured out that the main task of Akatsuki was to identify Konoha's Mangekyō and Wood Release, and to kill them if they had the ability.

As a result, now they can confirm this information. After all, those lunatics really attacked the Kusagakure Village!
"What a bunch of rubbish."

Ohnoki cursed in his heart, but he still opened the scroll and started reading. However, this time he raised his brows slightly.

"Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, Shihara Hidezawa, and Shimura Danzo's people"

He had never thought that he would see the name of Danzo in this place.

The Akatsuki organization seemed to feel that their performance in this mission was not as good as expected, so they sent some intelligence.

It includes information about Shisui, Hidezawa, and the connection between Hidezawa and Danzo!
Danzo already made him very unhappy. God knows how many people this intelligence bastard had planted in the Iwagakure Village.

And going on a mission to Sand Village is what this guy has to do. We cannot do without this guy, whether before or now.

And according to the information we have, it seems that the kid who can use Wood Release has been to Sunagakure before and destroyed some of Sunagakure's plans!
"This kid is quite interesting, but he's Danzo's man."

When Ohnoki thought that the bastard Danzo actually had a genius who mastered Wood Release, he immediately felt even more disgusted with this guy.

There is a shortage of talent in Iwagakure, but geniuses emerge every now and then in Konoha. How can he be happy about this?
But he just felt disgusted. After all, Danzo was just a shadow of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he was just following orders.

"Tsuchikage-sama."

But at this moment, another ANBU came in, which made Ōnoki a little confused.

"What's wrong? Just tell me if you have anything to say."

"Tsuchikage-sama, this is a message from Konoha. This is the topic of their impromptu proposal for tomorrow's conversation."

The Anbu handed over a scroll respectfully, and Ohnoki took the scroll with a cold snort. In his opinion, Konoha was probably asking for too much.

"Ok?"

Just opening the scroll and taking a closer look, Ohnoki was a little surprised.

"This is Konoha."

The negotiation content marked by Konoha covers many aspects, whether it is the division of the Grass Country or the return of personnel.

But the interesting thing here is that Konoha seems to have given up some of its interests!

In the division of the Grass Country, Konoha took off half of it, but the key problem was that the half that Konoha wanted was not a densely populated area.

The population density is related to the proportion of tasks. At the same time, Ohnoki had already explored that area and found that there were no abundant resources.

At the same time, Konoha did not seem to set any thresholds for personnel exchanges, which made Ohnoki a little confused.

"A slap in the face and then a sweet date?"

Ohnoki raised his eyebrows. He was wondering if Konoha didn't want Sunagakure to really get anything from him, as it would be inconvenient to control them.

In fact, this is more in line with common sense. As an ally, Konoha certainly does not want this ally to be too strong and sit on the fence.

However, he couldn't help but think of a question: Could it be that Konoha was not as united as he imagined?
Ohnoki has been criticized for a long time for not selecting the Fourth Tsuchikage, and it's hard for him not to think more in this direction.

"Also, although Danzo is Sarutobi Hiruzen's shadow, he is also the disciple of the Second Hokage. Maybe he really has some ideas?"

Ohnoki didn't know whether his guess was correct, but the emergence of this idea made him pay more attention to Danzo.

After all, this guy is not a simple person. After all, this guy is known as the 'Darkness of the Ninja World'.

What's more, this guy has a ninja who can use Wood Release!
"And Sand Village. That kid who can use Wood Release has been to Sand Village. Will there be any traces of Danzo there?"

Thinking of this, Ohnoki felt that he could do something. After all, the negotiations would not be completed in a day or two, so he still had time!

"Immediately arrange for people to go to Sand Village and carefully investigate some of the previous situations and changes in Sand Village, especially the period when that idiot Luo Sha wanted to confront us."

He immediately gave orders to the Anbu around him, telling them that since they were not sure, they should investigate it thoroughly. He always felt that this matter was very interesting.

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage."

The Anbu didn't understand what was going on, but he nodded seriously and turned to leave.

"Shimura Danzo?"

Looking at the back of the Anbu leaving, Ohnoki looked at the scroll in his hand again, and after a moment he suddenly smiled.

"You seem to be more interesting than I imagined."
