Naruto: From Kushina Uzumaki onwards, a traitor

Chiba replied in a very official manner: "This is all thanks to Konoha's cultivation."

When Danzo said "not bad," he was actually referring to Chiba's attitude when she encountered the Uchiha ninja.

Danzo asked very directly, "Chiba, do you hate the Uchiha?"

Qianyu's eyes flickered slightly.

Chiba didn't expect Danzo to ask him so directly without even any foreplay.

Chiyu replied, "Personal grudges are insignificant compared to the greater good of Konoha."

Danzo chuckled, but to Chiba, the laughter sounded like a cold laugh.

Danzo asked again, "What if the overall situation in Konoha can no longer accommodate the Uchiha?"

Chiyu calmly replied, "Whatever Konoha needs me to do, I will do it."

"As expected, Chiba, you already guessed that Konoha was going to take action against Uchiha, and you should have guessed that we would come looking for you."

Chiba looked at Danzo in surprise.

Danzo explained, "Because you were too calm. When you heard that Konoha was going to take action against Uchiha, you didn't show any expression at all, as if it were a matter of course."

Chiyu narrowed her eyes slightly; Danzo, that old fox, was truly shrewd.

After thinking for a moment, Chiyu admitted, "Lord Danzo, I did guess that Konoha would take action against the Uchiha. After all, the Uchiha are like a malignant tumor, affecting every aspect of Konoha. So it was easy to guess that if the Uchiha clan continued like this, Konoha would definitely take measures against them."

However, I didn't expect Lord Danzo to contact me. It was only because Orochimaru-sensei told me that the transfer order came from Lord Danzo that I wasn't surprised.

Danzo smirked and said, "Then let's assume you didn't guess. I'll get straight to the point. Hiruzen and I are about to give you a mission, a mission about the Uchiha clan."

In the upcoming war, you will be highly valued by me and Hiruzen, and your mission is to suppress the Uchiha under your command. Do you accept this mission?

Without hesitation, Chiba replied, "As long as it's a mission, a ninja must do their utmost to carry it out. I will strictly follow the Hokage's orders!"

Danzo stared at Chiyu for a long while before saying, "Chiyu, you are a smart person. You should know why I summoned you back to Konoha in my capacity as the Hokage's assistant and then met with you alone."

Chiba, feigning ignorance, asked, "Lord Danzo, I am foolish. Besides assigning me a task, is there anything else?"

Danzo stared at Chiba and said seriously, "Since you don't know, then I'll be blunt. I want to recruit you into Root. What's your choice?"

Chapter 126 Amegakure

Inside the root office.

Danzo openly stated his desire to recruit Chiba into Root.

Chiba looked directly at Danzo and said, "Lord Danzo, may I ask you a question?"

Danzo nodded and said, "Go ahead and ask."

Chiba asked directly, "Does Lord Danzo want me to choose sides?"

Qianyu's identity is no longer that of a marginalized person.

Qianyu is now a highly sought-after talent that everyone wants to recruit.

Since Danzo had asked him so bluntly, Chiba decided to ask Danzo directly as well.

Qianyu's purpose is also very clear: if you want me to take sides, what are the benefits?

We can't just let him join the root force and work for us without giving him anything, can we?

Danzo narrowed his eyes and asked Chiyu, "I do want you to stand on my side, so what do you want?"

Chiba said seriously, "Lord Danzo, as you know, I have always wanted to prevent Kushina from becoming a Jinchūriki, so I hope to change the Jinchūriki."

Miyuki Uzumaki, like Kushina, is a member of the Uzumaki clan, and she's also very talented. I've heard she's progressing smoothly in her sealing techniques, so the choice of Jinchuriki doesn't necessarily have to be Kushina. Besides, my Mangekyou Sharingan can control tailed beasts.”

Danzo did not answer immediately.

Danzo had already guessed that Chiba's request was to replace the Jinchuriki.

Indeed, as Chiyu said, the current choice for Jinchuriki does not necessarily have to be Uzumaki Kushina.

Danzo asked, "So, what can you offer in return?"

Chiba said in a deep voice, "As long as Kushina doesn't become a Jinchūriki, I will stand firmly behind Lord Danzo from now on. I will only obey Lord Danzo's orders and become Lord Danzo's most loyal subordinate!"

Danzo sized up Chiyu.

In terms of Qianyu's value, it was enough for him to agree.

He knew that Chiba had infiltrated Kumogakure and released the Eight-Tails.

Therefore, having gained Chiba's loyalty, Chiba, who possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, has essentially obtained the key to control the Tailed Beasts.

But if he simply agreed to Chiba's request, he wouldn't be Danzo.

"I can consider this matter, but it depends on your performance. You have to show me your loyalty. There's a good opportunity coming up. I need to go to Amegakure. You can be my bodyguard and come with me."

A glint flashed in Chiyu's eyes. Amegakure. It seems Danzo is about to take action against the current Akatsuki organization.

Chiyu bowed and said, "Yes, Lord Danzo, I will obey your orders!"

The Akatsuki organization today is not the extreme terrorist organization of the future, but an organization dedicated to creating world peace without relying on extreme force.

During this time of war, many people joined the organization, and Akatsuki gradually grew in strength and gained fame.

As Amegakure was located in a very special geographical position during the war, at the junction of the three warring nations of Fire, Earth, and Wind, it was possible for the Akatsuki organization to realize this ideal and end the Third Shinobi World War.

Because Sunagakure is currently leaderless, with the Third Kazekage nowhere to be found, they have no interest in war.

As for Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi would love to end the war through peace talks.

The explanation from Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village) is unlikely to make sense.

After all, this war was started by Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

However, if there are enough incentives, it is still possible for Iwagakure to relent.

However, Danzo could not allow the Third War to end like this.

Only through great battles can Konoha become stronger and gain more resources and leadership.

Moreover, the situation in Konoha seems to be getting better and better.

Therefore, Danzo persuaded Hanzo of the Salamander in Amegakure to say that the Akatsuki organization might gradually replace him as the leader of Amegakure.

Hanzo of the Salamander, in order to secure his position as leader and preserve his power, was indeed successfully manipulated by Danzo.

Hanzo the Salamander once longed for peace and wanted to eliminate war by unifying the five great nations through his own efforts.

However, after realizing that the existence of ninjutsu and ninjas would only bring endless war, he began to accumulate strength to seize power in Amegakure. He then became overly obsessed with his own life and status, and would do everything in his power to kill any being that might threaten his position.

At this point, Hanzo the Salamander had already betrayed his original beliefs.

Previously, Hanzo of the Salamander had considered eliminating the newly emerging and growing Akatsuki organization.

However, because they were from the same village, they couldn't make up their minds, so Danzo's persuasion was enough to succeed.

Since they're going to Amegakure, it means they're going to eliminate Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan.

And this... is also a major event, one that can earn witness points.

For Qianyu, this was exactly what she wanted.

The reason Danzo asked Chiba to go with him was because Hiruzen Sarutobi was unaware that they were going to Amegakure to eliminate the Akatsuki organization.

Because if Hiruzen Sarutobi found out, he would definitely be the one to initiate peace talks.

Konoha has already suffered so many losses, how could Danzo possibly let Konoha suffer such a huge loss?

Therefore, the only option now is to continue the war and make up for the losses elsewhere.

Therefore, the fact that Chiba went to Amegakure with him proves that Chiba is loyal to him.

Because by then, in the eyes of others, Chiba will already be one of Danzo's people.

At that time, Qianyu will have no choice but to obediently become his subordinate and serve him.

As for the Nine-Tails, Danzo didn't care at all whether the Jinchuriki was Kushina Uzumaki or Miyuki Uzumaki.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

As long as Chiba is around, with Chiba possessing the Mangekyou Sharingan, the Nine-Tails essentially belongs to Danzo.

So what if Miyuki Uzumaki becomes a Jinchūriki in order to make Chiba completely loyal to him?

Danzo said to Chiba, "Come to Root tomorrow at noon and come with me to Amegakure."

"Yes, Lord Danzo."

Chiyu withdrew from the Root.

Both of them were very satisfied with the conversation.

If Danzo has his support, then the Kushina Uzumaki matter is basically settled, and going to Amegakure will also get witness points.

...

After leaving, Chiyu prepared to go home.

On the street, Qianyu saw a familiar figure.

However, Qianyu's expression immediately became very serious.

Because next to Kushina Uzumaki was Miyuki Uzumaki.

The two of them were holding hands, and seemed quite intimate.

"Qianyu!"

Kushina Uzumaki saw Chiba, waved excitedly at him, and ran over.

"Qianyu, why are you back?"

Qianyu replied with a smile, "I just got back today. I noticed you weren't home, so I left a note. What's up? Are you shopping?"

"Yes, Chiyu, let me tell you, one of my clansmen has come to Konoha. Let me introduce him to you!"

Kushina Uzumaki clearly didn't know that Miyuki Uzumaki was found by Chiba, so she excitedly pulled Miyuki over and introduced her, "Miyuki, this is Chiba, whom I've been telling you about."

Miyuki Uzumaki said to Chiba, "Nice to meet you. My name is Miyuki Uzumaki."
