Naruto: My setting is above yours.

Danzo's eyes flickered.

After the meeting ended.

Danzo immediately went to Orochimaru's experimental base.

"Your teacher is preparing to step down as the Third Hokage!"

When Danzo revealed this news, Orochimaru paused involuntarily, then chuckled and said, "This is a wise choice."

Danzo was still very unhappy: "Hmph, he has become cowardly now. It wasn't enough to negotiate with Kumogakure, and now he wants to end the war with Iwagakure in the same way."

"He's completely wasting talents like Genma Mikage and Minato Namikaze!"

"Orochimaru, you must become the Fourth Hokage. If we join forces, we can completely defeat any opponent."

Orochimaru turned around, a strange smile on his face: "Become Hokage?"

"Heh, it's not up to you to decide, is it?"

These words stung Danzo's heart slightly, and he coldly replied, "Among the Sannin, you have completed the most missions and achieved the highest completion rate."

"In the battle against Yunyin, you are the commander. Yufeng Xuanma is too young; even if he gains more prominence, it won't affect you!"

"Minato Namikaze is only twenty years old, and he's not your rival."

"Your only opponent is Tsunade, but she's mainly in charge of medical care right now."

"As long as you make enough contributions and gain enough prestige in the upcoming war, you will be guaranteed to win."

"Moreover, I will support you!"

Orochimaru turned around and smiled, "I understand."

Become Hokage?

He didn't really care.

However, if becoming Hokage is beneficial for researching ninjutsu, then it's a different story!

Chapter 119 Who Will Prevail? (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

Border of the Land of Fire.

Genma was unaware that Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to abdicate again.

He confronted Onoki for a long time before finally waiting for Nara Shikaku to arrive.

"Senior Shikaku, it seems the village is going to negotiate a peace agreement."

Xuanma Dao.

Nara Shikaku nodded: "This is a decision made by the village's higher-ups."

Genma smiled enigmatically: "Danzo would agree?"

Nara Shikaku remained silent.

Danzo was undoubtedly a hawk within Konoha Village, and he actually had quite a few ninja clans supporting him.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio have always stood together with the Sarutobi trio, but they don't actually agree with this peace talks.

So much has been sacrificed, yet no benefits have been gained; all ethnic groups are unhappy about this.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi's prestige was high enough that the three clans ultimately chose to support his decision.

The Uchiha and Hyuga clans don't care; they haven't participated in the war on a large scale yet.

With the addition of the Sarutobi clan, Konoha's core strength, aside from the higher-ups, can suppress other voices.

So Nara Shikaku came today.

However, Nara Shikaku couldn't explain these things to Genma.

Genma was too lazy to investigate what kind of assessment Konoha had taken, since it wasn't his place to speak now.

"Senior, let me take you to see Onoki!"

Xuanma Dao.

Nara Shikaku nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

He didn't actually come alone; he had a guard team with him.

But on this front line, who could make you feel safer than the person right in front of you?

Nara Shikaku would certainly not refuse such a kind offer.

In fact, he believed that the future Genma would definitely become Hokage.

There is no one who can compete with him at the same level; the future belongs to this young man!

……

Recently, Onoki hasn't been keeping watch over Konoha, so Genma brought Nara Shikaku and the others to Onoki's base.

His clones are watching from the sky.

Nara Shikaku and the four Anbu ninjas couldn't help but look up.

Genma smiled and said, "Staying here is too boring. Ending the war is good news for me."

咻咻 咻 ~

As they were talking, Onoki appeared with his guards.

Genma called out, "Lord Tsuchikage, it's time to receive our guests."

Onoki gave him a cold look: "What do you mean?"

His gaze fell on Nara Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku said respectfully, "Lord Tsuchikage, I am Nara Shikaku, and I am here on the orders of the Third Hokage to present this peace treaty."

A peace treaty?

Onoki was quite surprised.

Genma smiled and said, "Lord Tsuchikage, cherish this opportunity!"

"If we don't negotiate, I'll just go to Iwagakure and plant trees once the Third Hokage goes to the battlefield. You don't want that, do you?"

Nara Shikaku and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Is this a threat?

Onoki's face twitched: "You wretched Wood Release brat~"

He wanted to turn around and leave, but after thinking about it, he held back. He had his subordinate take the peace treaty, and then said coldly, "Peace talks are fine, but first, transfer this little bastard away!"

Genma sighed, "Lord Tsuchikage is so rude. We've had a pleasant chat all this time."

Onoki wanted to hit someone.

Happy?

Are you happy?

With a cold snort, Onoki didn't bother to say anything more and turned to leave.

The group returned to the cabin. Nara Shikaku coughed twice and then asked, "Genma, is this... how you and Lord Tsuchikage interact?"

Xuanma shrugged and smiled: "You always need to kill time when you're bored, right?"

"However, do you think Onoki will compromise and end the war?"

Nara Shikaku pondered, "Perhaps he doesn't want to, but under the current circumstances, even if he wanted to continue, it's impossible for him to achieve anything."

"Therefore, using peace talks to transfer you away and free up time to deal with the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Earth might be a consideration."

"Whether the peace talks can be successful in the end depends on the strength shown by the village."

Xuanma nodded, finding the analysis quite reasonable.

It's certain that Onoki was unwilling to accept this.

Despite making so many sacrifices, they gained nothing and instead allowed Amegakure to reap the benefits.

In Iwagakure, Onoki also had a difficult time explaining himself.

"In that case, let's do it as soon as possible!"

Xuanma asked with a smile, "Seniors, why don't you fly back?"

Nara Shikaku paused for a moment before asking, "Is it your transformation jutsu?"

"I'd heard about it before."

Xuanma nodded: "Flying back would be faster and relatively safer."

"Since we've decided to negotiate, let's make this a quick and decisive battle."

"Iwagakure needs to deal with Kumogakure, and we also need to deal with other enemies."

Nara Shikaku nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you!"

"You're welcome!"

Genma smiled, then formed hand seals to transform Nara Shikaku and the four Anbu members into hawks.

After watching Nara Shikaku and the others leave, Genma thought for a moment and, too lazy to stay in the cabin, teleported directly to the medical team's camp.

Tsunade and the others were all busy, and were somewhat surprised to see Genma's true form appear.

"What happened?"

While treating the wounded, Tsunade frowned and asked questions.

The main body is here, could it be that something happened?

Xuanma stepped forward to help: "It's nothing serious."

"The village is going to negotiate peace. That guy Onoki has set a condition: I have to leave the front lines."

Tsunade was stunned.

The village is negotiating peace?
