Naruto, aspiring to become a well-known figure in the ninja world

"You don't recognize me?"

"Please show me your ninja forehead protector." The inspector was impartial and had already become adept at the job even though he had only been in office for two days.

Their job is to check people entering the village. They must either show their ninja forehead to prove they are a ninja from this village, or they must have a green card or go through a special channel to apply for a temporary residence permit if they are from another village.

If anyone tries to break through the inspection by force, report it immediately to the Konoha Police Department or press the alarm device with a special mark on the side.

The village entry inspection, which had been somewhat lax in the past, suddenly became strict under the order of Minato Namikaze a few days ago.

Danzo was rejected and asked his men to show their forehead protectors.

If the person standing in front of him was a ninja, he would show off his dignity as the Dark Lord of the Ninja World. But if the person standing in front of him was just an ordinary person... it would be cheap and taboo.

Just when Danzo thought the matter was over and was about to enter the village for the second time, he was stopped again.

The village inspector pointed at the bloodline children carried on the shoulders of the Root ninjas and said, "These two...are obviously not ninjas."

Danzo patiently explained: "This is confidential. I want to bring the people back to the village. This is not something you can interfere with. Get out of the way."

"If you don't have a ninja forehead protector and the relevant documents for entering the village..." The tone of the inspection immediately became serious: "You need to be taken to the detention center and wait for Advisor Gojo to deal with it personally."

"This is a special period, please forgive me."

"Asshole! Watch your attitude when talking to Lord Danzo!" The Root ninja behind Danzo immediately jumped out and pinned the inspector under his calf with a knee, refusing to let go no matter how he struggled.

"Ah...I can't breathe--!"

"Floy!" The brutal scene frightened another prosecutor who entered the village. He quickly turned around and pressed the alarm device, and the call for help was immediately sent to the police department.

The first person to arrive at the scene was not an Uchiha, but the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze who was wearing a divine robe!

Danzo couldn't help but widen his eyes. Only then did he realize that the strange words engraved behind the alarm button were none other than Minato's Flying Thunder God Seal.

Flying Thunder God...

His teacher, Tobirama Senju's seal was a pattern, while Minato's was a contract seal, so he was mistaken for a moment.

Minato, who arrived in a hurry, just glanced at the scene and knew what had happened... He couldn't help but admire Gojo Kegetsu's control over the situation.

Just yesterday, Jie Yuejun sent a message using a Ninja pigeon to remind Minato to stop the two children that Elder Danzo was carrying for him.

For this reason, Minato specially left his Flying Thunder God Seal when entering the village to check.

Unexpectedly, it was triggered the next day.

"What are you doing? Stop it immediately!" The good old man Minato was serious for once.

The idea of ​​strengthening inspections at entry into the village and the green card decree were also suggestions that Gojo Jieyue sent back shortly after his departure, and they had already been adopted by him.

Since it was the decree passed by him as the Fourth Hokage...the Root ninja's action of pressing his neck was not pressing his neck, but slapping Minato Namikaze in the face!

But look at the reaction of the Root Ninja!

When Minato Namikaze gave the order, he did not move away, but looked at Shimura Danzo with a questioning look. It seemed that in his eyes, Danzo was the greatest.

'My subordinates' subordinates, not your subordinates.'

This scene reminded Minato Namikaze of the teachings that Gojo Kegetsu once gave him.

In name, he is the big brother of the Hokage Village, but in reality, how many of the subordinates under Elder Danzo are actually his subordinates?

"Elder Danzo, tell your Root ninjas to stop immediately!" Minato emphasized his tone again, and this was also the final ultimatum.

At this time, Danzo already regretted bringing these two bloodline children back to the village.

It's just some unexpected troubles.

The Yondaime has become more and more out of control. He is no longer the simple Yondaime who had no power and relied on his Jinchūriki wife to rise to the top.

The village... was no longer the village he was familiar with. And he no longer had his old friend Sarutobi to support him.

suffocated.

It's all because of Wu Tiao Jie Yue.

Danzo snorted, "Didn't you hear me?! The Yondaime told you to let go! Go back to the Root and receive your own family discipline!"

"Yes! Master Danzo!" The Root Ninja responded, but his expression did not change at all. He naturally released the pressure from his knee.

"Yondaime... I want to know when this policy was promulgated?" Danzo was the first to speak up: "When I led my troops to leave Konoha a few days ago, the village had not yet issued this decree."

"I can understand that you want to enter the village to check, but we can't check every person and every department~" Danzo emphasized: "We are the Root, an organization that secretly protects the development of Konoha."

“What we do must not be interfered with by these ordinary people.”

"Walking in the dark night, serving Konoha, everything is false, everything is permitted! This is the code of conduct for our Root! It is also the code recognized by the Second and Third Generations!"

There was something that Danzo kept in his heart and didn't say.

The Roots he led usually brought many clearly marked contraband to the village, which were consumables used for forbidden experiments. At the same time, they would also sell some contraband to supplement the funding gap needed by the Roots on a daily basis.

We can't check everything, maybe we'll find something.

"You are right, Elder Danzo, but I am the Hokage now!"

"In Konoha today, I am the only one who represents the purest will of fire passed down by Master Hashirama!"

If Gojo Kegetsu were here, he would definitely be amazed that Minato has finally taken up the mantle of power.

Rarely, Namikaze Minato did not follow the steps given by Danzo, but became tough and built his own ladder of order word by word:

"Now, due to the turbulent times, in order to prevent spies from other villages from infiltrating, Konoha Village implemented new rules for entering the village three days ago! The two children brought back by Elder Danzo are also within the scope of inspection."

"Elder Danzo, do you have any questions?"

Danzo's face instantly turned as ugly as if he had eaten Uchiha's chakra. This familiar "Will of Fire" conversation seemed like he had experienced it not long ago.

But... I can't talk back.

The will of the Hokage is equal to the will of fire, and this is a position that no one in Konoha Village can shake at any time.

"...Two one-year-old children, does the Yondaime think they could be spies from another country?"

"Whether he is a spy or not, we can only make a conclusion after confirming his identity and conducting a detailed examination."

Namikaze Minato suppressed his shame of calling a black cat a white cat. How could he not know whether these two one-year-old children were spies? But since they were the targets that Jie Yuejun had pointed out, he had no choice but to force his way in.

He also gave Danzo the steps: "Of course, after checking that everything is correct, the person will definitely be sent to Elder Danzo."

"Are you serious...?"

"The Hokage has said that the Kyuubi will be hard to catch."

Of course, the final right of interpretation of the inspection lies with Gojo Jieyue. After all... Jieyue-kun does have his own methods to deal with spies, and he can even pry open the mouths of the Kumogakure spies.

Danzo felt that he was being plotted against, although there was no intelligence to prove it.

But as the darkest ninja in the ninja world, his sense of smell still made him detect something strange.

All of this... is Gojo Jieyue's conspiracy!

After so much trouble, the Ten Riders of the Mist Camp finally captured two bloodline ninjas from the Hidden Mist, but now they are going to hand them over to the village before their blood has been drawn or their cells extracted?

His lover is not the village.

This sudden new policy of entering the village seems to be aimed at Danzo no matter how you look at it!

Danzo was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have returned to the village even if it was risky. It was not impossible to bring these two bloodline ninjas to the laboratory outside the village.

Now that he was caught by the Fourth Hokage, how could he leave?

"...I am waiting for the Yondaime's investigation." Although he was extremely reluctant, Danzo had no choice but to wave his hand and let his men hand over the two bloodline children.

After all, Minato is the current Hokage, and the orders he gives are absolute. Danzo cannot openly oppose this.

But he and Minato Namikaze both knew in their hearts that this was only temporary.

This is how politicians are supposed to act, you give me face, I give you face. But when it comes to actual interests, it can't be solved by just talking about the will of fire.

These two bloodline children must follow the rules. Gojo Jieyue knows whether they are spies or not. If he dares not follow the rules and forcibly snatches the bloodline children away...

Danzo's eyes flickered. He didn't get the title of Darkest in the Ninja World by eating Bingliang Pills.

Before that, don't blame me for being unkind. Who doesn't know how to trip each other up?

Danzo said:

"Yondaime, regarding the Kirigakure Free Action, I am going to impeach him."

"Gojo Jieyue is too self-centered. He never thought about the harm his actions would bring to the village."

"When he comes back, hold a meeting immediately. I want to instruct him in person!"

Volume 64: The Ninja War Can Break Out, But Not Now

"Fourth Hokage, Gojo Kegetsu is reporting in compliance with your orders."

Gojo Jieyue came to the conference room of the Hokage Building, put his hands behind his waist, straightened his back, and strode into the conference room with his head held high and his chest puffed out.

There was a rustling sound coming from a black suit, and the meeting room, which was originally filled with heated discussions, gradually became quiet.

The standard of this meeting was obviously higher than any previous one. All the ninja leaders of Konoha Village, as well as the leaders of various administrative departments of the village, were asked to attend the meeting room.

The seminar on what path Konoha should take next was also a "shareholders' meeting".

In Gojo Jieyue's opinion, Konoha is like a large group. The Senju clan and the Uchiha clan are the two shareholders with the largest shares, while the big and small ninja clans are small shareholders.

Today's seminar is equivalent to disclosing the group's financial report, giving these small shareholders confidence and allowing them to increase their investment in Konoha.

Under the leadership of the [Kazuki Regime], the greatest victory since the Third World War was achieved. This news has spread among the patriarchs of the Konoha ninja clans.

The boxes of sealed scrolls were filled with cash. Regardless of how much money was in them, the visual effect was impressive.

There are also groups of outsiders queuing outside the gate of Konoha Village, holding up Konoha Green Cards, eager to enter the village.

Even those villagers who normally had the least sense of belonging to Konoha would puff out their chests with pride after seeing this scene.

Look at the funny expressions on the faces of those foreigners from the Water Country who have never seen the world! We, the natives of Konoha, are used to everything in Konoha Village!

The impact of "Yimu" may not be intuitive or concrete, but the hundreds of millions of cash and thousands of "fermented bean curd" are definitely the best proof of the achievement.

Gojo Kegetsu's political prestige reached the peak of his career.

The first person to react was Uchiha Fugaku.

He immediately stood up with a friendly smile on his face, and opened the first chair on the left side of Namikaze Minato for Gojo Kegetsu.

Although he still doesn't know what exactly happened in this operation, according to his eldest son and Uchiha Shisui, he learned a lot from Gojo Kegetsu.

For Fugaku, this was the last time he could repay the favor of his advisor.

In terms of attitude and playing cards, Uchiha Fugaku reached the top.

Many clan leaders of the small ninja clans looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw this scene. They knew that the relationship between Advisor Gojo and the Uchiha clan was very good, but they didn't expect it to be so good... so good that the clan leader personally stood up and pulled out a chair.

It gives people the feeling that Uchiha follows Gojo Jieyue's lead.

"Jie Yue-kun, thank you for your hard work in this operation." The second person to respond was Namikaze Minato.

In the eyes of outsiders, Gojo Kegetsu is undoubtedly a die-hard fan of the Fourth Generation Party. In the heart of Namikaze Minato, the relationship between the two cannot be said to be wearing the same pants, but at least it can be said that they are wearing the same divine robe.

Operation Kirigakure Freedom was accomplished brilliantly this time.

Such a big piece of fat was cut off from the Water Country without bloodshed, and without sending ninjas into the territory of the Water Country.

Now, even without the action statement discussed by the two, they can still maintain a high position of public opinion in the ninja world.

They, Konoha, are not invading the Water Country, but saving the suffering people in the Water Country!

Praise Konoha!

The ninja representatives present cheered one after another, except for Danzo, who was sitting opposite Gojo Kegetsu, and Mito Kado En and others, who looked a little ugly.

Perhaps they also hope that Konoha will become better, but they definitely don't want it to become better under the hands of their political enemies.

Danzo narrowed his eyes and remained silent, looking like he was planning something.

"Let Chief Nara give the detailed report on this operation." Seeing that all the invited people had arrived, Namikaze Minato announced the official start of the first Konohagakure ninja clan representative conference during his term.

Well...the first Konohagakure ninja congress was also the name proposed by Gojo Kegetsu.

The purpose is to enhance the overall cohesion of Konoha and make these wealthy ninja clans bleed.
