This Naruto is a player

As for the inner self?

Naruto had no idea.

After all, these people in power are all corrupt, and it's impossible for anyone to easily guess what they're thinking.

Unlike Naruto, who is as pure as a white lotus in this regard.

"Go down and report to the Anbu, and give a proper summary of Danzo's crimes."

Naruto turned his head and earnestly instructed, word by word, "You must write down everything he has done, one by one!"

"Yes!"

The twenty-five root members turned around again and filed out.

They will expose all of Danzo's evil deeds, one by one.

Heh heh, Danzo has now defected.

As for the bad things he did in the past, Danzo himself has no say in that.

Therefore, all the bad things the root did before.

It's all Danzo's fault!

As members of Root, they were only forced to do so under Danzo's oppression and enslavement.

You need to know.

They were all forced into this situation, and each of them was loyal to Konoha!

Since joining the Roots, they have been enduring inner torment every moment.

We yearn for the light at all times!

In any case, they are all clean! They are innocent!

They're all innocent and pure!

"Hey!"

Naruto sighed softly, and said meaningfully, "They are all good ninjas from Konoha, aren't they, old man?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't answer, he just kept puffing on his pipe.

He stared at Naruto, his old eyes flickering uncertainly, unable to fathom Naruto's thoughts for a moment.

Seeing the old man's posture, Naruto smiled.

What bad intentions could Naruto possibly have? It's all for Konoha!

In any case, the goal of integrating the roots into the leaves has been achieved.

His small goal has taken another step forward.

However, today's goal is only the first step. Every step from now on is of utmost importance!

Upon realizing this, Naruto's face instantly fell, and he channeled his inner actor once again.

"Hey~ Old Man Deng! You've kept this from me for so long!"

Naruto Old Man?

Upon hearing this address, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that Naruto was not in a good mood.

Then he realized what Naruto was referring to.

Take over the root!

A mysterious smile appeared on his face.

Haha, it's a good thing to let young Naruto know about the dirty side of politics.

That's the result.

While he was still pondering, Naruto's next words astonished him.

"Old man! Where did all those Jonin from Root come from?"

"What Jonin?"

Naruto emphasized again, "The Root organization is so small, with only 29 people in total. Where did they get 25 Jonin?"

The third generation couldn't sit still any longer.

He almost stood up, his eyes bulging out of their sockets, utterly astonished.

"How much?"

The voice even had a slight tremor.

After all, these are twenty-five Jonin.

Jonin are the pillars of every village!

Each one is a rare treasure of the village!

"Twenty-five!"

Naruto wore a perfectly timed look of confusion. "Huh? You don't know anything about it?"

"Twenty-five Jonin???"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was completely shocked, and his mind was momentarily blank.

Where did Root get twenty-five Jonin?

Are Jonin so easy to train?

How many Jonin does the entire Anbu have? How many Jonin does the entire Hidden Leaf Village have?

How could such a small organization as Root have a full twenty-five Jonin?

Previous investigations were also incorrect.

This point was not mentioned at all during the questioning by the secret service.

If Root has twenty-five Jonin, then Danzo...

Although he was drenched in a cold sweat, Hiruzen Sarutobi forced himself to calm down.

He stared at Naruto with suspicion. "Are you kidding me, old man?"

He even took a leisurely puff of his pipe, and amidst the swirling smoke, his cloudy old eyes flickered as he carefully observed Naruto, seemingly trying to find some clue.

Yet, deep within those eyes, there was never a trace of barely suppressed hope.

What if it's true?

"Oh?"

Naruto remained remarkably calm. "Looks like you really don't know, old man!"

His calm expression only fueled Hiruzen Sarutobi's suspicions.

"This Danzo really knows how to hide!"

Seeing that things had progressed sufficiently, Naruto laid his cards on the table, "Hey, I figured this out myself through testing. If you don't believe me, you can have the Anbu members test them."

Naruto's confident demeanor left Hiruzen Sarutobi somewhat bewildered.

But deep down, a sense of joy welled up inside me.

Jonin!

A full twenty-five Jonin!

How many years and how many resources would it take to train so many Jonin!

At this moment, he became somewhat anxious, his small eyes wide open, his gaze concerned and earnest.

He looked at Naruto and asked, as if confirming, "Is it true?"

Would I lie to you?

Seeing this old man's childlike appearance, Naruto was reminded of their first meeting when he was three years old.

That's how the old man was back then.

"You can have the Dark Division try them out; they should be very cooperative."

After a moment's thought, Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed.

"it is good."

Summon the secret agents at the door and give them their orders.

After doing all this, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt much more relaxed and now he just had to wait for news.

A total of twenty-five Jonin

Surprise!

What a pleasant surprise!

If it's true, Konoha's strength will be enhanced!

Forehead,

Looking at Naruto sitting in front of him, Hiruzen Sarutobi paused, though it was of little use.

Hey!

He sighed softly, "Times have changed."

It seems that the title of Jonin is no longer of any use.

However, thinking of something, Hiruzen Sarutobi was a little confused.

Danzo, the leader of Root, which has twenty-five Jonin, chose to defect instead of using this force to negotiate with Konoha or even cause any incident.

Really

Danzo is truly a loyal retainer of Konoha!

It must be to minimize the losses for Konoha, right?

As expected, even after his defection, Danzo still loved Konoha!
