Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

Chapter 176 Danzo, don’t run, you can’t escape!

The Land of Fire, Kyoto.

Danzo held the information in his hand, twisting the paper over and over again, his face gloomy and uncertain.

The developments in the Water Kingdom over the past few months had worried him.

He had a feeling.

The Water Country's guardian-nin system may seem like an internal conflict, but in fact it has other reasons.

Danzo stared at the map.

If there is another reason, what purpose does the manipulator behind it want to achieve?

Also.

Who is likely to profit?

He thought about it, pieces of information came to his mind, and then he frowned.

I always feel like something is missing!

"and many more?"

Danzo's eyes suddenly became sharp.

He thought of a possibility.

If the so-called guardian ninja is actually used by both parties to achieve their own goals, then...

What would be the other purpose?
Against yourself?!
In the current situation, who will deal with him?

There is only one possibility.

"Konoha, Konoha..."

Danzo muttered to himself.

If he was the one in power in Konoha, what methods would he use if he wanted to deal with someone who was nominally under the aristocratic faction?
of course--

Let’s destroy his reputation first!
Danzo's eyes gradually became sharper. He had been wondering what was going on with the chaos in the Water Country and why he always felt like he was in a fog.

Now, he came to his senses.

All this is directed at me!

At the same time, he also understood why he couldn't see through it, because there was a problem with his subordinates!

Danzo's face was grim.

"Win!"

"Lord Danzo."

A figure instantly appeared beside him.

Danzo tilted his head, and under the light, his expression was cold and full of murderous intent, and his tone was as cold as frost.

"Where are the tree people in the mountains?"

"Master Shu just said that there is unrest in the Water Country and every minute of intelligence is crucial, so he went there in person."

Fuma Sheng answered.

Danzo glanced at him coldly and said, "Idiot!"

Fengmosheng is confused.

I don't understand why I'm being scolded again.

but.

Facing Danzo, he didn't dare to talk back and could only bow his head and accept the scolding.

Danzo took a deep breath, but he also understood that it was not Fuma Katsu's fault. This man was just an idiot who helped with the work.

To be precise, all members of the Fengmo clan are like this.

Apart from some slight strength, the rest is simply not worth watching.

This is also the shortcoming of only teaching skills.

If you only know some combat skills, how to prevent spies and enemies from infiltrating can only be accumulated slowly through war and experience.

That kid Ryomine Kyouhiko's strategy...

It can’t be said that it’s wrong.

Strong strength will definitely allow the Genin to survive in more situations.

When Danzo thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh again.

It would be great if Kyouhiko Wakamine could help him!

If this were the case, he wouldn't have to worry about whether he could organize the manpower, but on second thought, he felt that his idea was ridiculous.

Yoshimine Kyohiko...

Although he is not a direct descendant of the Senju clan, after awakening the Wood Release technique, this guy is fully qualified to inherit the "legacy" of the Senju clan.

Tsunade now is just helping Kyohiko out, and the real future Hokage will still be that boy.

It was because of this realization that Danzo lost interest in Kyouhiko.

Originally, he had the idea of assassinating Jing Yan in his heart.

but.

The last time his shadow clone fought with Jingyan, he completely gave up this idea.

Jingyan today is no longer the same as before!

Danzo was silent for a moment, then said, "Go and do your work. We must strengthen patrols these days to prevent any trouble in the city."

"Yes, I understand."

Feng Mosheng retreated and went outside, where he tasted the food before he came to his senses.

Is Yamanaka Shu a traitor?
Having said that, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Yamanaka Itsuki was an important figure on their side, and even he betrayed Danzo...

wrong!

Who knows, that guy might not have been Danzo's man, but a spy sent by Konoha!

"never mind."

"What does it have to do with me? Konoha should be reasonable. No matter what, they will only deal with Danzo!"

Feng Mosheng said in his heart.

It's not that he has no ulterior motives, but as someone working under Danzo, he doesn't think being smart is a good thing, and besides...

Who knows how long Danzo can live?
Their clan just wants to live a carefree life and make money. They are not really willing to help Danzo with his life, so it's fine if they do it for the sake of it.

Feng Mosheng thought of this and went to do his daily patrol work.

No matter what, work still needs to be done!

……

Inside the Daming Mansion.

Yuan Shixiu knelt in front of the daimyo and remained silent.

"Kid, do you still think it's right to protect the ninja?"

"Father, then, is it right to hand over power to Konoha? Are we the daimyo, or are Senju, Sarutobi and the others the daimyo?"

Yuan Ichikyu raised his head, his eyes showing a hint of determination, "I still think that things between me and Konoha shouldn't be like this now."

There was disappointment in the daimyo's eyes.

"Hey!"

He sighed softly, stood up and walked over to him.

Yuan Shixiu knelt on the ground.

The daimyo sighed and said, "My child, you are still too young and have not experienced many turmoils. If you had experienced that period, you would understand why the Fire Country took the lead in uniting with Senju Hashirama and his men."

He reminisced about the past.

After a few seconds, the Daimyo said, "Did you know that the Land of Fire occupies the most fertile land in all of Shinobi?"

"This……"

Yuan Shixiu was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Yes, I know."

"Do you know that among the five great nations, we actually provide the least amount of funding to Konoha? Did you hear that? Percentage!"

Daimyo said.

Subsequently.

"The Land of Lightning has the highest expenditure, so the Hidden Cloud Village is very powerful now. The ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village are also working hard, and have caused quite a bit of trouble since the second generation."

"The Land of Earth..."

"The Kingdom of Wind..."

He gave examples one by one.

Yuan Shixiu raised his head, his face filled with astonishment for a moment, and indescribable emotions grew in his heart.

My father said...

He really hadn't thought about it.

"If you do the math, did the Fire Nation pay too much?"

"This is indeed not much."

Yuan Shixiu was also talented, so after just a little calculation he understood that what his father said made sense.

In terms of proportion of expenditure, the Fire Nation spends the least.

Then he thought: "But if we can hold this power in our hands..."

"Why?"

Daimyo was amused. He bent down and waved his hand to signal him to stand up.

"Stand up and talk. Today we are not king and subject, but father and son."

He sat back down.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuan Shixiu stood up and said, "Father, we can take them in our hands and turn them into ministers and generals instead of what they are now."

"You have been deeply poisoned by Danzo."

The Daimyo smiled helplessly, "Think about it, do you have the power to protect the ninja?"

"Of course it's in my hands!"

Yuan Ichixiu said.

The Daimyo leaned back: "Can you give orders to Danzo?"

"Of course!"

Yuan Shixiu swore solemnly.

Daimyo nodded: "Then call him over and I'll talk to him face to face."

"it is good."

Yuan Shixiu nodded and immediately sent someone out. Half an hour.

One hour……

An hour and a half later, Yuan Shixiu finally felt something was wrong.

No matter what.

Even if Danzo went out for something, he should have come back after such a long time. Did something happen?
He was thinking about it.

The daimyo was half asleep, looking at the children walking around outside. He waved and asked the guards to call him in.

After a while, Yuan Shixiu walked in quickly.

With cold sweat on his forehead, he said hurriedly: "Father, maybe, maybe something went wrong. I'll send someone to take a look..."

"Don't send any more."

The daimyo stood up from his chair, pounded his back tiredly, and then waved his hand to signal the guards to leave.

Wait until there is no one around.

He then said seriously: "Kid, you made a mistake."

"Yes, please give me your instructions."

Yuan Shixiu had come to his senses by now.

Daimyo said: "First, Danzo respects your money and status, but whether he listens to your orders or not is his business. He will not obey you just because you pay him."

At this point, he smiled.

"If people would obey as long as they were paid, then the country would be easy to govern. But now, among so many families, only a few are truly loyal to me."

"Secondly, the nobles forced you to do this because they could gain benefits from it. Do you still think you have done something great? Wake up!"

He sighed.

"What's the difference between you and Danzo, the guardian nin, and me and the Hidden Leaf Village?"

"I'm not too old yet. I can hold on for the next ten or twenty years, giving you enough time to gain experience."

"Look at this and think about it!"

The daimyo held a scroll, patted his shoulder, and walked into the house with his hands behind his back.

After talking for so long, he was indeed tired.

Yuan Ichikyu stood in the hall, looking at the scroll in his hand, which was about what happened in the Water Kingdom.

The guardian ninja of the Land of Water has stepped down.

The Hidden Mist Village didn't even mobilize too many ninjas, only sent out elites and jinchūriki, and directly destroyed the two major families.

The strength gap is too big!
And after that?
The nobles, without any hesitation, sided directly with the Hidden Mist Village, forcing the daimyo to step up and take the blame.

In the end, it was the daimyo who went to apologize and reached a new cooperation with the Hidden Mist Village.

Yuan Shixiu felt that his three views were challenged.

If the Hidden Mist Village is so powerful, how powerful should Konoha be?

He didn't speak for a long time, just looking outside.

Until dawn, Danzo still didn't come.

Later, his guards told him...

Danzo ran away.

As for his former men, he only found one body.

Yuan Shixiu doesn’t know.

What his father said was right, Danzo only obeyed his orders because he was happy to do so before, and he actually had no respect for him.

He and the guardian nin are actually a smaller version of the Land of Fire and Konoha.

"Sir, do you want to send someone to investigate again? What happened to Danzo?"

"no need."

Yuan Shixiu waved his hand, "Since he killed my men, there is nothing to talk about. It doesn't matter where he goes, just don't come back."

"Yes! So, what about the others?"

The guard looked hesitant.

Those ninjas are not easy to deal with. If these samurai are asked to control them, it will definitely not work.

Yuan Shixiu was about to give an order, but after thinking about it, he was speechless.

He had never had any contact with Danzo's men, so how could he give them orders?
……

In the suburbs, Danzo fled in a hurry.

When he figured everything out, he knew that the Fire Nation could no longer protect him.

The daimyo is not a round city.

Daimyo has a clear view of right and wrong and would never do anything stupid.

and so.

When he heard Yuan Shixiu's guards' message, his first reaction was -

The Daimyo wants to join forces with Konoha to trick him and kill him!

From Danzo's perspective, he felt that this kind of operation was commonplace, and he would definitely do the same if he were to plan it.

but.

He didn't expect...

As he was escaping quickly to the north using the art of teleportation, a figure appeared faintly in the woods ahead.

That is--

"Namikaze Minato?!"

Danzo's face was solemn.

Minato Namikaze's strength may not be as good as Kyohiko's now, but he is not much worse. He is definitely one of the most difficult opponents in Konoha.

The main reason is the Flying Thunder God...

Space-time ninjutsu.

The most difficult and strange ninjutsu created by his teacher.

"Jingyan said you could run, but I didn't quite believe it at first. How could you run with your ability?"

Namikaze Minato sighed, "It turns out that he is right again!"

Danzo's face was grim: "Where are the others?"

As he spoke, his nails quietly tore through the palm of his hand, and a drop of blood emerged.

at the same time……

Danzo instantly stepped back and ran to the other side.

Go to the edge of a rock and press it on the spot -

Psychic art!

Dream tapir.

Namikaze Minato's eyes narrowed.

He had some understanding of this summoned beast. It could absorb and shatter all objects. The Flying Thunder God Technique would be restrained in front of it.

Danzo is well prepared!

but.

Namikaze Minato raised his lips slightly: "Danzo, I don't only know how to fly Thunder God."

"Ah."

Danzo sneered.

however.

The next moment, a figure with a livid face emerged from the soil. This piece of land...

Covered by special plants, he couldn't stay underground for too long.

"Wood Release Barrier?"

Danzo realizes that Kyohiko is already here and has been hiding in the shadows, planning to deliver the fatal blow.

He looked around.

"The two strongest masters of Konoha are more than enough to deal with the Third Raikage together, but you ended up dealing with me? You really think highly of me!"

Danzo didn't seem to be planning to escape again, and was actually thinking about a solution.

but.

There are trees all around...

If I had known this, I would have stayed in the city.

In the city, he could at least gather a group of people to deal with them, and even use the daimyo as bargaining chips to force Konoha to let him go.

He was secretly annoyed.

"I know what you're thinking. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that you're desperate, we could use a simpler method."

Jing Yan crawled out of the dirt, "Don't run, you can't escape."

His face was covered with fine black lines, and immortal lines crisscrossed his face.

It was dark, but Danzo could see clearly.

"This is……"

"The power of the first generation?"
