Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 33 Lord Danzo definitely wants to become Hokage!

Why do people always try to deceive themselves?

Who dares to say that Shimura Danzo wasn't easily angered?

Is there anyone in Konoha who is more prone to losing their temper than Danzo Shimura?

Akihara Kagura quietly watched the old man's smiling face. This old guy was clearly the culprit who made Shimura Danzo so angry that he wanted to kill him!

"Let's go fishing first!"

The old man slowly exhaled a smoke ring, his smile very kind: "If the little one doesn't eat enough at night, it will affect his growth..."

Seeing that Akihara Kagura seemed unmoved, the old man continued, "If you go back too late and Danzo gets angry, I'll help you talk to him."

"Oh?"

Kagura Akihara raised an eyebrow, giving him a provocative look: "Lord Danzo is the Hokage's assistant in the village, what good does your word do?"

"Danzo and I have been friends for many years..."

The old man nodded, his eyes clearly revealing confidence. He was very confident that he could keep Danzo in check: "He will listen to me when I speak."

"Old people just love to boast..."

Akihara Kagura's face clearly showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Grandpa is the village's Hokage!"

Naruto Uzumaki quickly replied, then clenched his little fist and added, "But this is only temporary. When I grow up, I will definitely replace him as Hokage, and I will definitely surpass him!"

Just as Naruto Uzumaki said, the old man was none other than Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage of Konoha, except that this time he was not wearing the Hokage hat.

After watching the farce in the Forest of Death in his office, Hiruzen Sarutobi planned to observe the situation in the village, but instead found Kagura Akihara and Naruto Uzumaki together.

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately wanted to take the opportunity to meet the two little ones and pass on the Will of Fire to the future of the village, something he always enjoyed doing.

Because Hiruzen Sarutobi was approachable, the children, including Naruto Uzumaki, showed little fear of the Third Hokage, but rather great respect.

of course.

Some of the children in the village didn't know that the old man who always wandered around the village was the Hokage. When they suddenly found out from other people, they would always exclaim "Wow!" and show great surprise, and their attitude would become respectful.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was happy to pat the children's heads affectionately at such times, showing that the Hokage of the village was a gentle and kind old man.

Children of this type tend to have a greater love and respect for the elderly.

These types of children are also more likely to have the seeds of the Will of Fire planted in them.

however…

There were some unexpected events today.

When Akihara Kagura learned that the old man in front of her was the Third Hokage, her expression showed shock, followed by a hint of wary hostility!

"hehe…"

Hiruzen Sarutobi still wore that kind smile, seemingly unconcerned about Akihara Kagura's hostility. He knew that Danzo's children were not quite normal.

"You... are the Third Hokage?"

Akihara Kagura watched Sarutobi Hiruzen warily, her brows furrowed as she shook her head. "I don't see any Hokage-like qualities at all. A true Hokage should be like Lord Danzo..."

When Akihara Kagura got to this point, she seemed to remember Naruto Uzumaki's declaration that he wanted to become Hokage.

"Children shouldn't dream!"

Kagura Akihara grabbed Naruto Uzumaki's head and ruffled his hair: "You don't have a chance anymore. The future Hokage of Konoha will definitely be Lord Danzo!"

"Take your hand away!"

Naruto Uzumaki grabbed Kagura Akihara's wrist and shouted, "Impossible! I'm the one who will become Hokage! That Danzo guy has no chance at all!"

"Why is it impossible?"

Kagura Akihara patted Naruto Uzumaki's head: "Konoha can do without anyone, but it can't do without Lord Danzo! Lord Danzo will definitely become Hokage!"

"..."

A sharp glint appeared in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes as he watched all this unfold.

However, this sharp and aggressive demeanor vanished without a trace, and the old man immediately reverted to his kind and gentle attitude, as if he had never been there at all.

"Oh?"

"Did Danzo want to become Hokage?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled softly and continued slowly, "I grew up with him since childhood, and I've never heard him express any ambition to become Hokage..."

"..."

How could you say such a thing?

How could you say such a heartless thing?

Don't you old man know Danzo's thoughts at all?

Yes.

Danzo never told me that.

But as Danzo's most trusted confidant, I certainly know what he's thinking!

While suppressing Naruto Uzumaki's attempt to continue arguing, Akihara Kagura solemnly asked Hiruzen Sarutobi, "Lord Danzo, do you really not want to become Hokage?"

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was momentarily at a loss for words.

If I lie about this, I'll be exposed and leave the impression that I'm a liar. How can I pass on the Will of Fire to him in the future?

"Maybe I've thought about it."

Hiruzen Sarutobi decided to use a fabricated technique.

"I knew it would be like this."

Kagura Akihara patted Naruto Uzumaki, signaling the little guy to quiet down, and continued looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi, "Actually, Lord Danzo also wanted to become Hokage, right?"

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded silently.

"Didn't the Third Hokage just say that he and Lord Danzo were friends?"

Kagura Akihara seemed to have grasped the truth and nonchalantly began to fabricate a story: "Maybe both the Third Hokage and Lord Danzo had the opportunity to run for Hokage. Lord Danzo originally had a great chance of becoming Hokage, but he didn't want to compete with his friend and lose their friendship, so he had to give up the position to the Third Hokage..."

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Danzo Shimura was personally appointed Hokage by his teacher, the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju. It could even be said that he was appointed in a time of crisis. Danzo Shimura never had the opportunity to become Hokage!

You little rascal...

The filter for Shimura Danzo is way too strong!

Hiruzen Sarutobi vaguely sensed that his conversation with Kagura Akihara had strayed from the topic. Wasn't he supposed to be conveying the Will of Fire to the future of the village?

Why discuss his rivalry with Danzo Shimura for the Hokage position?

"Little brat."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a long drag on his cigarette, exhaling a large smoke ring, determined to steer the conversation back on track: "The Hokage isn't a position people fight for, but a responsibility that must be borne. The Hokage carries the expectations and recognition of everyone in the village..."

"Naruto..."

Akihara Kagura lowered her head, lost in thought, seemingly convinced by Hiruzen Sarutobi's words: "Do I need to bear the expectations and approval of everyone in the village?"

"yes…"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice sounded somewhat tired.

Seeing that Akihara Kagura and Uzumaki Naruto were deep in thought, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally nodded in satisfaction, intending to give the two kids a good lesson.

The Third Hokage.

Akihara Kagura's expression suddenly turned serious: "My wish is to be able to eat a bowl of hot Ichiraku Ramen when I'm hungry..."

"Me too! Me too!"

Naruto Uzumaki quickly raised his hand, looked at Kagura Akihara, and said, "When I become Hokage someday, I'll definitely treat you to ramen every day!"

"...Okay, I'll treat you to a meal."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gripped his pipe tightly.

After all, he had just said that the Hokage had to bear everyone's expectations and recognition. If he didn't satisfy the two of them at this moment, it seemed impossible to get them to continue listening to the lesson on the Will of Fire...

First update!

Zhang said it can be seen in the backend...

You can criticize Danzo, then you can't criticize me anymore!
