MTL - Escape From Konoha-v6 Chapter 159 Danzo and root
Seeing the appearance of this root leader, whether Shikamaru was sitting on the hospital bed, or standing on one side, Shikajiu whose body stiffened suddenly, felt a burst of shock.
They were not mentally prepared for Danzo's arrival, nor did they expect that the other party would come out of the Konoha torture room.
Although it is imprisoned in the severe punishment room, everyone knows that it is just a form, and it is impossible to really restrain Danzo's movements in this way, but the number of times the other party left the severe punishment room in person during the detention period is only a handful number. Even when Uchiha Sasuke attacked Konoha before and caused huge losses to the village, most of the other party's roots were indifferent, which shows that his deployment arrangements were not affected, so what is the reason for appearing here this time?
Lu Jiu didn't feel at all that he, or his son Shikamaru, had such a big face that he could let the other party do it himself. The process of visiting Danzo in the heavy punishment room a few days ago is still vivid in Lu Jiu's mind, but there are basically no exchanges with the other party. He just asked about Uchiha Sasuke according to Tsunade's instructions. In addition, he did not involve Shikamaru and Genbu's secret communication, in order to avoid more troubles. But now that the other party came to the door in person, Lu Jiu suddenly couldn't calm down.
After a burst of shock and nervousness, Shikahisa stood in front of Shikamaru's bed without hesitation, blocking Danzo's way to move forward.
The two Anbu who followed Lujiu also flashed from the shadows.
Appeared, standing beside Lu Jiu, watching Danzo's every move with vigilant eyes.
It seems that the other party is just an old man who is getting old, but those who have dealt with him know how scary and difficult he is.
It would be an extremely difficult matter to be targeted by him. Regarding Lu Jiu's interception, Danzo didn't take it seriously, but met the opponent's gaze with a calm gaze, with a calm and long breath.
Just like that, Lu Jiu and the two accompanying Anbu couldn't help but sweat on both sides of their foreheads, and their palms were slightly clenched, so that they can be in a fighting state at any time when conflicts arise.
"Elder Danzo, you have abdicated from the top ranks now, so you should go back and forth from where you came from. I don't need you to come forward in person about the matter between us father and son."
This is a tactful refusal.
As the squad leader of Jonin, Lu Jiu didn't want Konoha to be in chaos.
In the face of a powerful leader like Danzo, he also has the attitude of forbearance and forbearance, and does not want to be an enemy.
Otherwise, facing a huge fighting organization with no lower limit in means, even the three clans of Zhuludie can't stand the toss of Danzo.
Danzo didn't open his mouth, except for the sentence he said before, he never opened his mouth again, but he still maintained a calm posture, standing in the ward, bringing Lu Jiu unparalleled pressure.
Until there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor outside
Sound, Danzang and Lu Jiu turned their heads and looked at the door of the ward.
boom!
The door there was kicked away.
"Danzo, you old bastard, if you want to fight, I, Hokage, will fight with you personally!"
Tsunade, who was already in an extremely bad mood, immediately burst into anger when Anbu conveyed the situation here, put down all the work in his hand, and rushed in angrily, preventing Danzo from further actions.
"Master Danzo!"
Seeing Tsunade rushing in aggressively with a team of Anbu, Yuyometogen and Yamanakakaze, two cronies, immediately flashed into the house from the window, struggling to resist the powerful chakra that Tsunade erupted.
"Feng, take the root, you step back." Danzo said softly.
Yamanakakaze and Yuu Togen looked at each other, immediately let go of their resistance and stood behind Danzo, but the vigilance towards Tsunade in their eyes did not relax.
With Danzo's body bones at this time, if he is touched by the opponent's fist... no, even if it is rubbed, it will cause unimaginable consequences.
Seeing Tsunade coming over, Shikahisa breathed a sigh of relief as if he had found the backbone.
"Danzo, this is my chassis, don't mess with me here! Give me
Go back to your prison! "
Although he knew that Konoha's martial arts faction headed by Danzo was powerful at this time, Tsunade was also unwilling to show weakness.
After several years of secret manipulation, the power she has obtained is not weak. It may be stretched to compete directly with the kingdom of ghosts, but Tsunade still has the confidence to compete with the roots.
Moreover, when dealing with the matter of the ghost country, she, Hokage, was so angry that she had nowhere to vent. The appearance of Danzo just made her find this outlet.
And Danzo, who was not surprised by Tsunade's arrival, or in other words, it was his original intention to attract Tsunade.
Therefore, he said directly and flatly: "It's just right, the old man also has something to discuss with you, let's go to another quiet place to talk."
Danzo looked neither happy nor sad, with a sense of powerlessness that made Tsunade punch the cotton, he clicked his lips in displeasure, and said: "There is nothing to talk about between you and me, be honest and do your duty. It is the greatest help to the village.”
After all, after becoming Hokage, Tsunade dare not say that he knows all the things Danzo has done before, but 70% to 80% of them are.
Even so, Danzo's degree of **** far exceeded Tsunade's imagination.
Without this old guy as a hindrance, Konoha and the Uchiha clan would not have made trouble to this point.
It can be said that the reason why the kingdom of ghosts rose and the reason why Uchiha Sasuke attacked Konoha was that the two sides were at odds, and Danzo played an important role in it, and he can be called the number one hero.
And these are also the bitter fruits of her teacher Hiruza Sarutobi's indulgence.
Thinking of this, Tsunade's heart burst into an unknown fire again, and he glared at Danzo angrily.
However, Danzo seemed to have not heard Tsunade's words, and directly missed Tsunade's body, and left the ward with Shan Zhongfeng and Younv Takugen, but the walking speed was not fast, obviously inviting Tsunade past.
Tsunade smacked his mouth again in displeasure. "Lu Jiu comes with me, and the rest stay put."
Although he said that he didn't want to socialize with Danzo, he was still very curious about Danzo's purpose of eliciting himself.
It's not that she hasn't thought about easing the relationship with Danzo.
Although the things Danzo has done are assholes, it is too late to regret and make up for it at this time, so Konoha can only bear it. Moreover, under the tremendous pressure of the external environment, Konoha can only tide over the difficulties by uniting all the forces in the village.
Continued internal friction will only give others the opportunity to take advantage of it again.
In a secluded lounge in the hospital, Tsunade and Danzo sat on the sofa, looking at each other.
Lu Jiu, Shan Zhongfeng, and You Nv Qu Gen followed behind their respective superiors, their faces dull.
Tsunade crossed Erlang's legs, and raised his right hand from the coffee table casually.
With a cup of tea, he cut straight to the point and said, "You old fellow, you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. If you have anything to say, just say it. Let me hear what good things you did behind the back of the village."
On the word 'good thing', the tone of Tsunade's biting words suddenly became heavier, with a kind of gnashing of teeth.
Regarding Tsunade's cynicism, Danzo didn't seem to care, his face was always calm, and he didn't show any anger. "This old man is seventy-three this year, it's time to find an heir..."
puff!
The tea that had just been swallowed before it could be swallowed suddenly spewed out of Tsunade's mouth and splashed on Danzo's body, causing Tsunade to cough violently, staring at Danzo with wide-eyed eyes in shock, as if he was asking if the other party was right? It was dropped.
Danzo still didn't seem to care, just calmly picked up a tissue and wiped the tea off his clothes.
"The root...when did you need a so-called heir?"
Tsunade felt strange about this, with a bit of sarcasm in his tone.
The root is a distorted organization born under Konoha's political balance. It is the correct path for such an organization to perish in the dust of history.
No matter who is the top Hokage, he doesn't want to see Anbu's banner, and there is such a team that is not controlled by Hokage, or even the village, and only serves
A powerful armed organization based on individuals.
Ignoring these Danzos, he continued: "So far, there are forty-three members of the martial arts faction who have merged under Genbu's command, Jonin,
There are more than 2,000 Chunin ninjas... These are all products born out of the compromise of the Japanese appeasement policy in the past. His stamina is not enough to support the duties of "Kage", so I was born as "Dark". The more I listened, the more frightened I became. Although Tsunade knew that the fighting faction under Danzo's command was extremely powerful, he didn't expect it to be huge. to this extent.
With more than forty high-level ninjas and more than two thousand middle-level ninjas, plus the uncounted low-level ninjas, the power of the fighting faction is strong enough to shake the foundation of Hokage.
Moreover, the roots have not yet been incorporated.
It is conservatively estimated that it is not a problem to come up with 20 anonymous ninjas who only have a code name.
The corners of Tsunade's eyes began to twitch.
"Danzo, what do you mean by this? Are you threatening me?"
Tsunade sighed and was sitting up, his eyes instantly became sharp, and he shot Danzo directly.
Danzang said to himself, "No, I just want to explain that when I am alive, I can still suppress this group of people. But once I die, with your strength, can you subdue them all?"
Whether it was Tsunade or Shikahisa's question, after listening to Danzo's question, they all gave a silent response.
Although Danzo's words were very ugly, they also said an extremely cruel fact.
This group of militant factions were originally radicals born after the Third Ninja World War, under the long-term appeasement policy of the Three Hokages.
In terms of roots, Tsunade is also labeled as the Third Hokage, and to a certain extent, will be regarded by this group of fighters as the successor of the Third Hokage's appeasement policy.
With her ability, no matter whether she could suppress this group of people, it would be an extremely terrible disaster for Konoha.
"you mean···"
"The old man needs a successor to avoid future chaos. In addition, the old man's body is already riddled with holes. Even if there is no battle, he can only live for another year at most."
Danzo gave a very bad news. At most one year, Danzo will die.
In the past, Tsunade felt that this was a happy event worth celebrating. But in fact, this is likely to be the beginning of Konoha's troubles.
Once Danzo dies, the militant faction will inevitably lose its due control, and a civil war is very likely to break out.
To avoid such a thing, the root can only continue to stabilize the rule over the militant faction.
To have a stable and long-term rule requires the birth of a new leader.
Danzo expresses exactly this intention.
It can be said to be a conspiracy, there is no hidden conspiracy, but Tsunade and Lu Jiu had to jump into it.
"What do you think, Shikaku? Anyway, it has a lot to do with you."
Judging from Danzo's attitude when he came to look for Shikamaru, he should have taken a fancy to Shikamaru's potential qualifications.
Therefore, Tsunade put the decision-making power in the hands of Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No, I don't know how to do it."
From the perspective of the village, this seems to be a very beneficial thing.
But what kind of place is the root, how could he not know?
He didn't want his son to work in such a place at all.
Moreover, thinking that Shikamaru might return home with Danzo's gloomy expression all day long, the muscles on Shikahisa's face couldn't help but ache.
"Since this is the case, how about discussing with the child personally? Anyway, he is already a qualified ninja and will have his own opinions. After all, it is not a good thing to spoil a child too much."
Danzo said so.
"·" Lujiu sighed, and nodded helplessly: "Yes, but Hokage-sama and I will listen in secretly, and please don't force that child, Elder Danzo. Besides, that child is still recovering, and the victim Not too much stimulation, time for communication,
Just put it after he gets out of the hospital. "
"Can."
Danzo agreed to the request and got up.
"By the way, since you value Inuko so much, why did Uchiha Sasuke make him do such risky things when he attacked Konoha?"
Lu Jiu didn't understand this. So I asked.
Shikamaru was seriously injured that day, if Naruto's Immortal Talisman had been used, he might have died.
This is not in line with Danzo's words and deeds at this time.
Danzo glanced at Shikahisa and Tsunade, and said slowly: "When he met the old man through Sai that day, the old man secretly left the "Izanagi" pupil technique in his eyes, which will be automatically triggered when he dies , to rewrite the fact of his death. Even if there is no Uzumaki Naruto’s Immortal Talisman, he will be fine. But since this pupil technique is not triggered, let’s keep it in his eyes.”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Shikahisa and Tsunade's reaction, Danzo left with Shan Zhongfeng and You Nv.
"Shikajiu, have you really thought about it? If you are persuaded by Danzo, there will be no turning back."
After Danzo left, Tsunade asked Shikahisa.
"One or two, that stinky boy met with Danzo once behind my back, so there may be a second time in the future. If he doesn't get rid of this idea, it doesn't matter how many times he blocks it. Moreover, Danzo is fancy. Yes, it is also the strength of Hokage and Ikacho, his ingenuity, in fact, does not account for a large proportion."
Lu Jiu sighed melancholy.
Otherwise, based on the current Shikamaru alone, Danzo would not be able to enter the eyes. It can only be said that he is a young ninja with great potential, and he is still far away from being truly independent.
Therefore, the Hokage faction represented behind Shikamaru, as well as the power of the family, are what Danzo really values.
"It's good that you are sure. However, after getting rid of Danzo's thorn, next, I can also show a little stronger attitude towards that stinky boy in the kingdom of ghosts."
After all, always being under the pressure of his former students is also a very aggrieved thing for Tsunade.
For Tsunade's words, Shikajiu couldn't deny it.
Tsunade's tolerance for the Oni Country is not because she likes to be patient, but before Konoha's internal forces cannot be unified, no matter how she touches the Oni Country, she will end in failure. Only when Ye is unified internally can he have the strength to fight back.
The loss of the Fourth Ninja World War could have been avoided, but the internal division of Konoha gave the Kingdom of Demons too many opportunities to take advantage of, which led to the unfavorable situation of the war.
After learning this experience and lesson, for the kingdom of ghosts, Tsunade follows the strategy of treating it as if nothing happened as long as there is no large-scale attack, and unifying the interior as soon as possible is the top priority. If the negotiation with Danzo goes well this time, then it is only a matter of time before Konoha's internal reunification.
But on the other hand, Lu Jiu didn't want this kind of thing to go too smoothly.
Ambivalence was born in Lu Jiu's heart. The country of Zhi.
In the underground waterway of a huge building, Sasuke struck the person who wanted to escape with lightning, and immediately knocked the fleeing ninja to the ground. His fate was pronounced. "Is that all, Kakashi?"
Sasuke turned his head to look at Kakashi who appeared here at some unknown time, followed by the ninjas from the Oni Nation who were wearing heavy armor. They took the escaped ninja out of the underground waterway as if they were arresting a prisoner.
"Yeah, after cleaning up this mouse, there will be no more problems in the Zhizhi Country's intelligence department in a short time. After all, it has been less than a year since the official cooperation with Zhizhi Country, and the new intelligence branch here It is normal to have some problems.”
After all, it takes a lot of time to plant spies in.
In particular, a well-structured intelligence organization like the Kingdom of Ghosts has a very strict entry process for new recruits. Even if it exists as a branch, it is the same.
Therefore, if outsiders want to place spies in, it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources.
In a short time, this kind of thing will not happen
the second time. He and Kakashi came to the roof above the building and looked at the scenery below.
The intelligence branch here is located in the capital city of Zhizhi Kingdom, and the distance from Daming Mansion is only a few office streets away, so the location is very close.
Here, the intelligence agency of the Kingdom of Ghosts belongs to a formal official organization, so it can be established in a grand manner, and it can operate smoothly with the support of the Daming Mansion of the Kingdom of Zhizhi.
But at the same time, the information they got here will also be shared with the Daming Mansion of Zhizhi Country, and if necessary, they will catch 'rats' for them to ensure their safety.
For a small country that is rich in medicinal materials and has no ninja village, only under the protection of a big country can it maintain its inheritance in the ninja world.
And compared to the other small countries that are still in war, the domestic situation in Zhi Zhi Country is good, and there is no political turmoil.
At present, the ninja troops of the big country officially stationed in the country are only the family of the ghost country.
Although this ninja troop only has a total of more than 150 people, such an arrangement is enough to protect a small country. "It's really a peaceful country. It's completely different from the small country I walked through before."
Sasuke said so.
Before coming to Zhizhi Country, he and Kakashi also passed through a small country.
A civil war is going on in that small country, and the behind-the-scenes manipulators are the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Earth, who are using that country as a platform to fight among great powers.
In contrast, the peace and tranquility of Zhizhi Country, in Sasuke's view, is like two worlds.
"I heard that the higher-ups plan to have a relationship with a certain princess from the Daming Mansion here.
Marriage, and this country's medicinal resources are very rich, out of these considerations, we will send troops to take shelter directly. "
Kakashi shrugged.
It is not uncommon for major forces to marry and combine.
In the past, the famous Senju Clan in the ninja world and the Uzumaki Clan who were good at sealing techniques were combined by marriage.
The princess of the Uzumaki clan was once the wife of the first Hokage, Konoha's first Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Such alliances were very common in the Warring States Period. Even the Uchiha clan used this method to develop their own power and confront the Senju clan.
It's just that those ninjas were eliminated by the cruel ninja battlefield during years of battles. In the end, only the powerful Uchiha clan survived. Until now, they still retain a relatively complete family inheritance.
"If you want to revitalize the Uchiha clan in the future, you can also try to develop in this direction. The revitalization of a clan has nothing to do with the size of the population. As far as I know, there seem to be quite a few girls watching you secretly .”
Kakashi narrowed his eyes and smiled. ""
Looking at Kakashi who was talking more and more crooked, Sasuke didn't expect to get angry, so he ignored his teasing.
marry?
Before killing Danzo ~www.novelbuddy.com~ he wouldn't think about such boring and meaningless things.
"Okay, since the matter here is resolved, let's go to the next country quickly, complete this task as soon as possible and then go back, I still have a lot of things to deal with."
Sasuke changed the subject and focused on this task.
In order to save time, he did not take Chongwu and the four of them with him, but asked Chongwu to help them train the four to improve their strength.
"I see..."
Kakashi lazily took out a map with a clear course of action drawn on it.
"The next country I'm going to is the country of wine, which is a hard-hit area of the civil war. Before that, the intelligence branch there was attacked by Yun Yin's ninja leaders, and a lot of valuable information was lost. After arriving there , but there is no leisure here in the Kingdom of Zhi. Take a short rest and set off at midnight tonight, and try to arrive before noon." Looking at the sunset that was about to sink into the western sky, Sasuke nodded and agreed.
After several days of rushing, he was a little tired.
