ALL NOVEL Chapter 41
Chapter 41: Danzo’s coercion! The third generation’s choice!
The night climbed up the sky, bringing everything into darkness.
At this time, most of the ninjas have finished their work and returned home to play and rest with their families.
But the lights on the floor belonging to the Hokage are still on.
The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, holds a pen in his hand and keeps correcting.
On the table that belongs to him alone, there is a thick stack of documents waiting for him to deal with.
This Hokage who has been in office for the longest time, inheriting the spirit of the first and second generations of Hokage, pushing Konoha to prosperity and growth, and bringing it to the top, and also bringing forth new ideas and summarizing the will of fire, is truly admirable in terms of diligence.
“Third generation, everything is ready, it’s time to make the final decision.”
In the room, a figure suddenly appeared. There were circles of white bandages wrapped around his head, and even his left eye was covered.
The only remaining eye was full of ferocity and resentment.
Danzo.
Hearing this, the hand holding the pen of the third generation paused, and his brows frowned slightly.
But in the end, he didn’t say anything more, picked up the pen and continued to write.
“A few days ago, Uchiha Fugaku organized the backbone and elite forces of the Uchiha clan to gather in the Konoha Guard Department to discuss how to rebel against Konoha, and even had a specific plan.”
“These are the messages sent back by the Anbu, and they are undoubtedly accurate.”
“Do we really have to wait until the Uchiha clan is ready to fight us to the point of mutual destruction?”
Danzo half-closed his eyes, speaking in a calm tone.
Based on his understanding of the Third Generation over the years, he knew clearly that the Third Generation had already acquiesced, but he was just one breath away from it.
Otherwise, could he really hide what he was doing in secret from the Third Generation’s eyes?
The reason he came here was to give this breath.
To get the most definite answer.
When the night of the genocide came, he wanted to make sure there would be no surprises.
“In recent years, our Konoha Village seems to be prosperous and powerful, but in fact, there is a lack of successors. The old ones are too old, and the young ones have not really grown up yet.”
“The generation that should be held responsible the most, the Fourth Hokage Minato died in the battle, among the three ninjas, Orochimaru defected, Tsunade and Jiraiya have been wandering outside and are missing.”
“It even came to the point where you and I, two old men, had to come to support the scene.”
“You know the strength of the Uchiha clan.”
“Their evil Sharingan allows them to have the upper hand against anyone they fight.”
“The clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku, is in his prime, and his strength is unfathomable.”
“When they are ready, can Konoha still win? Even if we can win, what kind of losses will we suffer?”
“The ninja world today seems peaceful, but in fact, it is turbulent. I don’t know how many people are coveting the status of our Konoha.”
“Once a war breaks out, our Konoha’s power will be damaged, allowing other ninja villages to take advantage of the situation. It will be too late to regret then!”
“Third generation, it’s time to make a decision. We can’t let the entire Konoha suffer huge losses because of your indecision! We must……”
“”Enough!”
The Third Hokage said in a deep voice, interrupting Danzo.
He frowned and lowered his head, so his facial expression could not be seen.
But from his slightly trembling hands, it was clear that he was not at peace in his heart.
Danzo looked calm and continued,”I have prepared everything.”
“As soon as the time comes, I will take action immediately”
“For Konoha, no one can stop me, not even you as the Hokage.”
Crack!
The pen in the hand of the Third Hokage was broken.
He raised his head suddenly, and his usually kind and gentle eyes were rarely sharp.
“Danzo, don’t go too far!”
Danzo still had a calm expression, with a hint of a cold smile on his lips.
The two of them were in a faint confrontation.
Knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door.
Then, without waiting for the Sandai to respond, he pushed the door open and walked in.
It was Asuma who came to deliver the message.
He rushed in, panting, and looked a little flustered.
Danzo, who was originally standing in front of the Sandai, had disappeared.
“What’s going on? Why are you so flustered?”
The third generation looked at Asuma and said with some dissatisfaction.
He trained his son as his successor.
How could he be so reckless?
Asuma didn’t care about these things at all. After coming in, he said directly:”Something bad has happened. The messenger of Yunying Village is dead!”
“”What!”
The third generation frowned,”What’s going on! How could the envoy of the Cloud Shadow Village die?”
Asuma panted slightly and explained the whole story in detail.
The third generation half-squinted his eyes, looking a little serious.
The envoy of the Cloud Shadow Village intended to kidnap Hinata, so as to obtain the bloodline limit of the Hyuga clan, the Byakugan.
From this point of view, he died. He deserved it.
However, he was the envoy of the Cloud Shadow Village after all.
He represented the dignity and dignity of the Cloud Shadow Village.
He died in Konoha Village like this, which was tantamount to a great insult to the Cloud Shadow Village.
In addition, the relationship between Konoha and the Cloud Shadow Village over the years can not be said to be very good.
With the extremely irritable character of the Raikage, an improper handling may cause a war between the entire Konoha Village and the Cloud Shadow Village!
“”Come on, I’ll go with you to take a look!”
Sandai said in a deep voice.
Noticing his father’s solemn expression,
Asuma couldn’t help but ask,”It shouldn’t be anything serious, right?”
“In the final analysis, it was the people of Cloud Shadow Village who were at fault. If they hadn’t been plotting something bad and wanted to kidnap Hinata, how could this have happened?”
“Director, if we can capture the Cloud Shadow Village envoy alive, we can use this to ask for benefits from the Cloud Hidden Village.”
“But I should never have killed him. Things turned out differently.���Completely different”
“The envoy is the face and dignity of a village. Killing the envoy of Yunying Village is an insult to the entire Yunying Village.”
“I’m afraid it’s not that easy to end this matter.”
“It’s actually… It’s actually so serious!”
Although Asuma had some guesses in his mind before this, he was still a little surprised after hearing the confirmation of the third generation.
The third generation snorted coldly and looked at Asuma, implying something.
“Many times, whether something is serious or not may not lie in the matter itself.”
Asuma’s eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he was even more confused.
The third generation was a little disappointed.
His son’s aptitude for training was not excellent, and was far behind the genius ninja like Hatake Kakashi.
In terms of his level of effort, he was not as good as Might Guy who practiced hard all day.
But these are not the most important.
To be a Hokage, it is important to have popularity and to be able to distinguish the situation clearly.
These are what Asuma does not have now.
But fortunately, he is still here.
Asuma still has time to grow.
I hope that when that day really comes, Asuma will have achieved the step he expects.
The third generation patted Asuma on the shoulder and said,”You will understand soon.”
“”Let’s go, let’s go and have a look.”
After saying that, he used a teleportation technique to leave the place.
Asuma followed closely behind him.
