[Hashirama Senju: "This is called love..."]

Madara Uchiha: "Stop disgusting me..."

[Hashirama Senju: No, it's precisely because I love my brother that I've always respected his decisions... Madara, I thought you understood me...]

Madara Uchiha: "I know nothing about you..."

Hashirama Senju: "..."

Chapter 767: The Secret Meeting of Konoha's F4! (Please Subscribe to the Full Chapter)

Everyone opened the video link.

[Video footage...]

Inside the Hokage's office, Danzo Shimura, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado sat together, all with solemn expressions, seemingly discussing something...

On the conference table between them lay a sealed letter, now half-open.

"Sarutobi, you're the Hokage, what do you plan to do about this?" It was Koharu Utatane who spoke first, her gaze fixed intently on Hiruzen Sarutobi, a strange light flickering in her eyes, lost in thought.

At the same time, Danzo Shimura and Homura Mitokado's gazes also fell directly on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Yes, Sarutobi, you are the Hokage of Konoha. Whenever there are important matters, the decision-making power rests with you. Think carefully about how to handle the Uzumaki Kingdom's attempt to dominate the ninja world!" Mitokado Homura added.

"Sarutobi, tell me, what do you plan to do? If you can't make a decision, then this old man can help you!" The last to speak was Shimura Danzo, whose face had been grim throughout.

After the three finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face immediately fell.

Then, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly picked up his long pipe and took a few puffs. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "The Uzumaki clan has countless connections with our Konoha village. It would be unwise for us to act rashly. Moreover, the origin of this secret letter is questionable. We must find out the source of this secret letter. What if it's a conspiracy by another ninja village?"

[Shimura Danzo said in a deep voice, "I had already received news that the other four great ninja villages had also received this secret letter. In addition, some other forces with ninja villages, such as Amegakure, Takigakure, and Onigakure, had also received this secret letter. They have already sent scouts to Uzumaki Country. In my opinion, our Konoha Village should also send a scout team to Uzumaki Country to gather intelligence. Regardless of whether this letter is true or false, it is certainly not a bad idea to go to Uzumaki Country to check the situation!"]

[As soon as Danzo Shimura finished speaking, Koharu Utatane immediately nodded and said, "I agree with Danzo's suggestion. The fact that this secret letter was able to bypass all the defenses of Konoha and appear on the Hokage's desk without warning shows how powerful the messenger is. Regardless of his purpose in sending this letter to all the ninja villages, if the Uzumaki clan really wants to use their sealing techniques to control the tailed beasts, then there is probably no one in the ninja world who can stop them!"]

Mitokado Homura immediately echoed, "Indeed, I also agree with Danzo's suggestion!"

[As he spoke, Mitokado Homura turned to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi, whose face remained grim, and said, "Sarutobi, I know what you're worried about. We can keep it from Lady Mito. Besides, she's now the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha. As a weapon of war, she can't leave the village, so... as long as we don't mention this secret letter, she shouldn't notice anything..."]

[Shimura Danzo interrupted, "Mito, you're mistaken... Although Lady Mito cannot leave Konoha, I feel that from today onwards, we need to increase our vigilance against her. It would be best to send a few more Konoha ANBU squads under the pretext of protecting her safety to strengthen our surveillance!"]

Upon hearing Shimura Danzo's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression darkened further.

[Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't immediately reply to Danzo Shimura, but he smoked even more frequently!]

After a brief silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his long, empty pipe and said, "We do need to strengthen our surveillance of Lady Mito's side, but... if the Uzumaki Kingdom really is trying to dominate the ninja world by controlling the tailed beasts, as the secret letter says, then our Konoha Village cannot intervene!"

"Why? Are we, Konoha, just going to stand by and watch the Uzumaki clan dominate the ninja world?" Shimura Danzo sneered. "Danzo, don't do anything foolish just to save face for Lady Mito. What if the Uzumaki clan really does dominate the ninja world? Wouldn't our Konoha village be forced to be subservient?"

Chapter 768: This matter absolutely must not be known to Lady Mito! (Begging for full subscription)

"No, Danzo, didn't you just say it yourself? The other four great ninja villages and those smaller ninja villages also received this secret letter. If they all send people out to besiege Uzumaki Country, with Uzumaki Country's current strength, they simply wouldn't be a match for them!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Danzo Shimura with a flicker in his eyes, then continued in a deep voice, "To be frank, with the Four Great Shinobi Villages and the other smaller ones involved, whether Konoha gets involved or not is irrelevant. Moreover, considering the relationship between Konoha and Uzumaki Country, we can't take action against them!"

Koharu Utatane shook her head and said, "Sarutobi, the relationship between our Konoha Village and the Uzumaki Country has gradually become distant since the First Hokage died. You should be well aware of this, right?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly: "Even so, we cannot take action against the Uzumaki Country..."

[Shimura Danzo slammed his fist on the table, his face contorted with rage, and said, "Sarutobi, give me a reason. If you don't have one, even if you disagree, I will personally lead the Root to Uzumaki Country to investigate. If Uzumaki Country truly intends to dominate the ninja world, I will join forces with the other ninja villages to stop them!"]

"Danzo, how dare you..." Seeing Shimura Danzo's unyielding attitude, seemingly disregarding him as Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi's tone softened with anger!

However, Danzo remained unfazed, letting out a cold snort and saying, "You'll see if I dare to..."

[Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at each other for a while, neither showing any intention of backing down!]

Just then, Mitokado Homura suddenly spoke up: "Sarutobi, I also think Danzo was right. If you want to stick to your own ideas, you have to give a reason, right?"

Koharu Utatane quickly chimed in, "Sarutobi, don't be so stubborn! The Uzumaki Kingdom's situation isn't very optimistic right now. If Konoha makes them think we're protecting the Uzumaki clan because of this, it might attract the attention of other ninja villages. In that case, Konoha might become the target of everyone's criticism!"

Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado, and Danzo Shimura had clearly reached a consensus: first, send a scout team to Uzumaki Country to conduct reconnaissance. If Uzumaki Country was indeed secretly plotting to seize control of the entire ninja world, then Konoha Village would have to join the campaign against the Uzumaki clan and eliminate Uzumaki Country alongside the other ninja villages!

As for the once unbreakable alliance between Uzumaki Country and Konoha Village, Danzo Shimura and his two companions stated that it was nothing more than a blank sheet of paper, which could be torn up at any time!

After all, it was the Senju clan that initially allied with the Uzumaki clan, not the entire Hidden Leaf Village, and now the Senju clan is gone!

Therefore, the relationship between the Uzumaki clan and Konoha Village is merely superficial; in reality, there is no longer any connection between the two!

This is also the main reason why Danzo Shimura, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane decided to take action against Uzumaki Country!

Otherwise, if the Senju clan were still alive, or if Hashirama Senju were still alive, how could the three of them have dared to attack the Uzumaki clan?

Seeing the resolute attitude of Danzo and the other two, Hiruzen Sarutobi could only sigh and look at them, saying, "I, as the Hokage, understand the current situation of Konoha better than any of you three. Think about it, if we take action against the Uzumaki clan now, what will Lady Mito think when she finds out..."

[Shimura Danzo interrupted, "Didn't I just say that Lady Mito has been staying in Konoha? As long as we keep our mouths shut, she will never know about this!"]

Hiruzen Sarutobi chuckled and said, "Heh~ Danzo, Danzo, weren't you quite shrewd before? How come you're so foolish now? If the Uzumaki clan really wants to use the power of the Tailed Beasts to dominate the ninja world, do you think others won't get wind of such a big deal? There are so many people in Konoha Village, can you be sure they won't tell Lady Mito? Don't forget, Lady Mito has lived in the village for many years, she's kind, and she can control the Nine-Tails very well. The villagers respect and love her very much! What if some villager can't bear to see Lady Mito kept in the dark and tells her about this? Have you thought about the consequences?"

Chapter 769 The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, we can't handle him! (Begging for full subscription)

See the video here.

Almost everyone in the live stream was completely dumbfounded!

Especially those damned ninjas from other villages!

Because all they knew before was that Konoha Village was a deep and dangerous place.

They actually resorted to that kind of trickery!

They may not be good at anything else, but they excel at scheming and infighting.

However, after seeing this video!

That's when they realized.

It turns out they had somewhat underestimated the internal strife tactics employed by the higher-ups in Konoha!

Because they never expected it.

The Konoha leadership is actually setting their sights on Lady Mito!

It’s so heartbreaking!

To know.

Lady Mito was the wife of the God of Shinobi!

The wife of the First Hokage of Konoha!

From another perspective!

Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others are her juniors!

And as a junior!

Is it possible for a human being to scheme against their own elders?

[Kondo Mune: "Second Hokage, you Konoha village really know how to stir up internal strife!"]

[Hozuki Gengetsu: "No wonder Konoha's strength has declined so drastically. I finally understand why..."]

[Tobirama Senju: "What the hell... what does it have to do with me that monkeys and their gang are fighting amongst themselves? I never did anything like this during my time as Hokage..."]

[Kondo Mumo: "Heh~ Second Hokage, you can't say that. After all, those guys plotting against Lady Mito in the video right now were all trained by you!"]

[Tobirama Senju: "Sigh~ Stop talking. If I had known those monkeys were so unreliable, I would have used them as bait back then..."]

At this moment, the Second Hokage was filled with deep regret!

Because he hadn't expected it either!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, whom he entrusted with an important task before his death!

How could it be so unreliable!

Internal strife has not only made Konoha Village a mess, but it has also created chaos and disorder!

Now they've even set their sights on their own sister-in-law!

If only I had known earlier that my students were so unreliable!

He should have used them as bait to lure away the Golden Horn and Silver Horn troops back then, and then escaped alive himself!

……

The video continues...

[As soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, Danzo Shimura immediately interjected, "Sarutobi, you don't need to worry about that at all. We can keep it from Lady Mito and warn the others in the village to keep it a secret. That way, there won't be any problems. I think with our prestige in Konoha, those villagers shouldn't talk nonsense in front of Lady Mito. Compared to that, I'm more worried about the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques!"]

"You should know... the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques can suppress tailed beasts, even to the point of controlling them. If they were to truly dominate the ninja world with the power of the tailed beasts, the格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or landscape) of the ninja world would inevitably change!"

"And by then, the standing of Konoha Village in the ninja world will definitely plummet!"

"Sacrificing Lady Mito to preserve the village's standing in the ninja world, and what's more, we've only concealed one thing from her, one piece of information, not intended to harm her. How should we choose between these two options? Sarutobi, as the Hokage, you should know the answer better than I do, right?"

Upon hearing Danzo Shimura's words, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado both nodded in agreement, agreeing that Danzo's words made perfect sense!

Konoha Village was originally one of the Five Great Nations of the ninja world, on par with the other four, belonging to the top of the ninja world's pyramid!

[But if the Uzumaki Nation truly dominates the entire ninja world using the power of the tailed beasts, then the five great ninja nations will be reduced to second-rate powers!]

[It's possible that the Uzumaki Kingdom will use the power of its tailed beasts to further exploit the five great ninja nations!]

By then, what force in the ninja world could possibly rival the Uzumaki clan, who have completely mastered the power of the Tailed Beasts?

Facing the questioning gazes of Shimura Danzo and his companions, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly offered his opinion: "Do you think you can fool Lady Mito by silencing the villagers? Don't forget how the person who delivered this secret letter managed to get through all the barriers of our village to the Hokage's office."

"What if Konoha Village disregards its past relationship with the Uzumaki clan and investigates them, or even takes action against them!"

"That person will definitely find out, and once that person tells Lady Mito this news, will she still listen to us old folks? A Jinchuriki who can wield the power of the Nine-Tails is someone we can't handle!"
