He suddenly sighed and said, "Lord Orochimaru is in the underground chamber beneath the Naka Shrine, within the Uchiha clan's territory. Go find him yourself!"

"The Uchiha clan, the Naka Shrine? Thanks!"

Jiang Cheng offered a perfunctory thank you.

Then, he immediately took Uzuki Yugao and rushed towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

……

at the same time.

The back mountain of Konoha Village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi finally carried the unconscious Naruto Uzumaki back to Konoha Village.

After settling Naruto in.

He went to the root base immediately!

And they found Danzo Shimura there, plotting the collapse of Konoha!

"Danzo, Jiang Cheng has already betrayed the village and said he'll come to take over Konoha in a week. What do you think?"

Danzo: ? ? ? .

"Sarutobi, how did you know I was here?"

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi rush into the house, Danzo quickly put away the secret letter in his hand.

This secret letter was sent by someone sent by Orochimaru.

It contains a lot of information about the Konoha Crush Plan!

If Hiruzen Sarutobi sees this!

That would be terrible!

But it's okay.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind was filled with thoughts of Jiangcheng's betrayal of the village!

They paid no attention to Danzo's strange behavior.

"Do you think I didn't know you'd been secretly restarting the Root organization all these years? I just turned a blind eye, choosing not to get involved!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a solemn expression.

Upon hearing this, Danzo's expression changed slightly, and he argued, "I did all this for the sake of the village. After all, there are some things that you, as the Hokage, cannot handle in person, so I have no choice but to take matters into my own hands!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand and said, "Alright, I didn't come to you to argue. The matter in Jiangcheng is urgent and must be dealt with as soon as possible. As for your matter of restarting the Root, I can continue to pretend I didn't see it!"

Actually, after the Uchiha clan was wiped out...

In order to deflect the negative impact caused by the civil war!

Hiruzen Sarutobi shifted almost all the blame onto Danzo, who was known as the scapegoat.

The root tissue was disintegrated on the spot!

And Danzo's position as Hokage's assistant!

It was withdrawn at that time.

He was only recently reinstated.

But it’s worth mentioning.

Regarding Hiruzen Sarutobi's outrageous attempt to shift blame back then.

Danzo, however, did not utter a single complaint at the time.

Because it's a condition for taking the blame.

Hiruzen Sarutobi promised him a condition.

That is, the right to dispose of the corpses of all Uchiha clan members.

Yes.

The corpses of all the dead members of the Uchiha clan!

In the end, Danzo transported them all to the Root.

This is also the main reason why Danzo was able to possess Hashirama's arm, which was covered in three-tomoe Sharingan eyes!

"That kid Jiang Cheng was never simple. It was your own indecisiveness that caused you to miss the best opportunity to kill him!"

Danzo, with a stern old face, continued, "However, you don't need to worry too much. Since he has chosen to betray the village, you should just issue the arrest warrant and get the major families involved in this matter. This way, we can reduce our losses a bit!"

Danzo's method was undeniably ruthless.

They asked other families in the village to help them get rid of this major threat.

And one can reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

But it's a pity.

His idea was quickly rejected by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said, "The major clans don't have Kage-level fighters, so even if they take action, the results will probably be minimal!"

Danzo's eyes flashed, and he frowned, asking, "What do you mean by that?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said solemnly, "I just fought him not long ago. That kid's growth rate is astonishing. If I'm not mistaken, his current strength has completely stabilized at the Kage level, and may even have surpassed the level of an ordinary Kage!"

"—Click!"

Danzo was just about to pick up his teacup to take a sip of water when he heard Hiruzen Sarutobi say those words!

My whole body suddenly trembled.

The ceramic teacup in his hand shattered on the spot.

"What did you say? Shadow level? That kid has actually reached that level?"

Danzo stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi in utter astonishment, his old face almost frozen in shock.

If it weren't for the burning sensation from the tea in my hand.

He even began to mistakenly believe that he might have developed Alzheimer's disease prematurely.

In just two months.

He went from being a genin who had just graduated from the ninja academy to reaching the kage level.

And more importantly.

The other person is only twelve years old!

Such a growth rate!

It's probably beyond just being amazing, isn't it?

That's absolutely outrageous!

"Kage level is a conservative estimate. Perhaps his strength is even more terrifying than we imagine. In short, I have no choice but to ask you to help me deal with him this time!"

At this point, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly remembered something.

Then he added, "If possible, I hope you can use Shisui's Kotoamatsukami to control him and make him serve Konoha!"

As soon as these words came out.

Danzo's pupils contracted sharply, and he said in disbelief, "You even knew about this?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sneered, "Back then, when Shisui suddenly fell into the Southern River and committed suicide, do you think I didn't send people to investigate afterwards?"

"If you can use Kotoamatsukami to control Jiang Cheng this time and make him loyal to the ninja village, it will be an immense blessing for our Konoha village!"

"Danzo, now that things have come to this, do you still intend to continue hiding your strength?"

Upon hearing these words, Danzo fell silent!

After a while.

His gaze sharpened slightly, and he said, "Alright, I'll cooperate with you this time. If that brat dares to show his face in Konoha in a week, I'll let him taste the power of Kotoamatsukami!"

Danzo agreed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Danzo's basic strength is not as good as mine.

However, he has collected quite a few forbidden and secret techniques over the years.

In addition, there's Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan.

If the other party is willing to make a move.

Even if Jiang Cheng possesses strength surpassing that of an ordinary Shadow-level expert!

Facing two veteran Shadow-level fighters at the same time would be absolutely disadvantageous!

of course.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's request for Danzo's help this time wasn't entirely for Jiangcheng's sake!

And Orochimaru too.

The information was obtained from Mitarashi Anko.

Orochimaru has already infiltrated the village.

Furthermore, they placed the Heavenly Curse Seal on Uchiha Sasuke.

That guy is probably eyeing us from the shadows right now.

At the same time, he was facing two troublesome guys: Orochimaru and Jiangcheng.

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had held the title of Hokage for decades, dared not be negligent in the slightest!

"Sarutobi, now that we've dealt with the Jiangcheng incident, shouldn't we postpone the Chunin Exams a little longer?"

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was plotting how to deal with Orochimaru and Jiangcheng...

Danzo's voice suddenly came from beside my ear again.

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately shook his head and said, "It cannot be postponed. The eyes of other villages are on this Chunin Exam, and the invitations from the daimyo of the major countries have already been sent out. Therefore, no matter what happens, this Chunin Exam must proceed as scheduled!"

Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is that so? It seems this matter is indeed quite troublesome!"

That being said.

But Danzo's thoughts at that moment were this: If you want me to take action, I will do so after you die. If you don't die, I will never become Hokage. Sarutobi, don't blame me for being ruthless then!

……

at the same time.

It was during this time that Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo were secretly plotting how to deal with Jiangcheng.

Jiang Cheng, however, had already brought Uzuki Yugao to a deserted village on the outskirts of Konoha Village.

"I never imagined that the Uchiha clan's territory, once so prosperous, would have fallen to such a state. It's truly pathetic!"

Looking at the semi-abandoned buildings in front of him, now covered with broken roots and fallen leaves, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but sigh.

This place was once the ancestral home of the Uchiha clan, one of the two great clans in the ninja world.

It has now become a desolate wasteland.

Everywhere you look, there is a scene of desolation.

It's completely lifeless!

Yugao Uzuki, who was standing nearby, explained, "After the Uchiha clan was wiped out, this area was taken over by Danzo. However, for some unknown reason, Danzo relinquished control of the area, and it became an abandoned ruin. Usually, no one comes here."

Jiang Cheng shrugged, dismissively saying, "Throwing away things that have no value is something Danzo often does, isn't it?"
