A fighter from Hyuga

Well, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't even ask if this alliance could be formed.

It was obvious that even though the intelligence had not yet been sorted out, Sarutobi Hiruzen could guess Iwagakure's intentions.

The reason why we have to capture the members of the Iwagakure Messenger Group alive.

I just want to get more detailed information.

"Economic blockade, material blockade... bang!"

Upon hearing this, Shusi casually said to Sarutobi Hiruzen that apart from the possibility of a direct war, there are only a few areas where there is room for maneuver.

But before Shuji could finish his words, the door of the Hokage's office was kicked open with a loud bang.

At this moment, Shuji and Sarutobi Hiruzen were both stunned and looked towards the door in surprise.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen! Are you crazy?"

And it was at this moment that Danzo's roar sounded quietly.

"Shimura Danzo..."

Standing up silently, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Danzo with gritted teeth with a stern expression.

"Don't take my tolerance for you as a capital for your insolence, you bastard!"

He slapped the desk hard and Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Danzo Shimura at the door.

"Ah... Guiyuan is here too?"

Blinking silently, Danzo slowly retracted his foot without even looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, but just focused his eyes on Shuji.

There was even a forced smile at the corner of his mouth.

For some reason, Danzo felt a lump in his heart, even though as an Anbu, it was normal for Shuji to appear in the Hokage's office.

But, Shuji and Sarutobi Hiruzen...

Danzo felt very uncomfortable.

"Danzo-sama?"

He stood up subconsciously and looked at Danzo standing at the door, his throat twitching in a very useless way.

I don’t know why, but at this moment, Xiu Si suddenly felt like he was caught doing something bad.

Even so, as an Anbu, reporting missions to the Hokage is a normal thing.

"White Fang values ​​you very much. Are you now the one doing the mission reports?"

Taking two steps forward, Danzo pulled over a chair, sat down, and threw the documents in his hand onto Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk.

"Shimura Danzo!"

Just when Shuji was about to say something, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who could no longer tolerate Danzo's complete disregard for him, shouted again in a low voice.

"If you have something to say, just tell me. If you don't have anything to say, just go back to your roots."

After seeing Shuji and Danzo's eyes fall on him again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly exhaled a breath, sat down again, and spoke coldly to Danzo.

"Are you selecting ANBU or JOININ?"

Upon hearing this, Danzo immediately picked up the document that he had just placed on the table and questioned Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Chapter 206: What's so arrogant about a Hokage who is in arrears with mission rewards? !

"Can't you do it?"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Shimura Danzo calmly.

Of course Sarutobi Hiruzen knew whether the Anbu's assessment standards for the Root were too high or too low.

After all, when setting this standard, Sarutobi Hiruzen's original intention was to make things difficult for Danzo.

It's really interesting. The people who poached me are also taking advantage of my loopholes.

How dare you?

If you want to say that you are shouldering something for Konoha.

A little concession is fine.

But now not only are you not shouldering those responsibilities, you are also taking advantage of me.

You still want to take advantage of me now? What? Have you not taken advantage of me enough, Mr. Hokage Assistant?

“Who can do that?”

Danzo's face suddenly froze, and he asked Sarutobi Hiruzen with gritted teeth.

This selection standard is basically the upper limit of what 90% of the ninjas in the village pursue in their lifetime.

Even among those currently in the Anbu, a large number do not meet this standard.

If I can achieve this level in the root, what do I need your Anbu for?

"Then I'll try with someone else."

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no intention of arguing with Danzo, but directly gave Danzo a solution.

That's right, if the Root were disbanded now, Konoha would indeed lose a lot of money.

However, the root will not be disbanded, but the person in charge of the root can be replaced.

How's it going? Are you sweating profusely, Danzo?

Hearing this, Danzo's face suddenly changed. Oh well, so you were waiting for me here.

Or maybe you are the Hokage.

"Sure, you can ask anyone to be in charge of the Root, but there is one thing. Please deliver the money that the village owes me and the Shimura family to the Shimura family before the sun sets."

Standing up, Danzo straightened his clothes and spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen in a stiff tone.

Of course, Danzo knew clearly that if he talked nicely to Sarutobi Hiruzen now, this would not be a big deal at all.

But now that Shuji is here, Danzo can't bend his back.

Hokage?

Danzo admitted that the power of the Hokage was indeed great.

but……

Why are you so arrogant as a Hokage who owes people money for their missions?

"Sarutobi Hiruzen, I'm telling you, not only will I no longer be in charge of the Root, I will no longer be the assistant to the Hokage. Just do your best."

After saying this, Danzo turned around and looked at Shusi, who was sitting next to him, not saying a word and looking very well-behaved.

At this time, a slight smile appeared on Danzo's lips.

Xiu Si looks quite cute like this.

"Guiyuan, Orochimaru is still waiting for you at the root, don't let Orochimaru wait too long."

"After all, Orochimaru was very interested in the jutsu you discussed with him."

As he spoke, Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen behind him.

That's right, these words were spoken to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After saying this, Danzo did not make things difficult for Shusi, so without waiting for Shusi to answer, Danzo's figure instantly disappeared in the Hokage's office.

Danzo promised that tonight, Sarutobi Hiruzen would come to the Shimura household with gifts and ask him to continue to serve as the Hokage's assistant and continue to be in charge of the Root.

After all, as the Hokage's assistant, Danzo knew very well whether the village had money now.

Looking at the place where Danzo had just stood, Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth with trembling lips, but could not utter a word.

In the end, he could only calm down, stood up, closed the office door, and continued to look at Xiu Si.

"Where were we talking about just now?"

“Economic blockade and material blockade.”

Hearing this, Shusi blinked and said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Is Danzo so crazy even when he hasn’t turned evil?

"Well, this economic blockade...what jutsu did you and Orochimaru discuss?"

Nodding slightly, Sarutobi Hiruzen originally wanted to talk to Shusi about the economic blockade first, but in the end he couldn't help it and asked Shusi directly.

"resurrection."

Hearing this, Shuuji suddenly became happy and said to Sarutobi Hiruzen without any concealment.

"Resurrect the First Hokage..."

"Dong dong dong."

Just when Xiu Si hadn't finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"call……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes helplessly and slowly exhaled a breath.

"Enter."

As soon as he finished speaking, an Anbu came in and placed an intelligence scroll on the table in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Go inform Orochimaru and come to my place when you have time."

Looking at the Anbu in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen said softly.

"Yes."

After watching the Anbu ninja leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen first took out a scroll and began to copy the information, while asking Shuji.

"The jutsu to revive the Shodaime Hokage?"

With his brows slightly furrowed, to be honest, even though he hadn't heard Shusi's detailed introduction to the concept of this technique, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that this technique must be a forbidden technique.

“Well, this doesn’t require human experiments.”
