Chapter 323 Minato returns victorious

The moment Minato entered the village, the villagers who came forward spontaneously cheered and crowded around him.

The crowd burst into warm applause, with genuine smiles on people's faces.

Feeling everyone's trust in him, Minato's face burst into a smile like a little sun, and the crowd's cheers suddenly became louder.

The third generation, along with Mito Kabuto, Koharu Koharu and Akimichi Tofu, stood at the front of the crowd and welcomed Minato with smiles on their faces.

Kakugi did not step forward to join in the fun. He was currently performing an important mission, and the difficulty of the mission could change from C level to S level at any time.

That is, Guardian Uzumaki Kushina.

Originally, Kakugi wanted to join in the fun with the crowd, but Kushina had the same idea.

Because the third generation couldn't be pestered, the third generation had to send an additional ANBU team in addition to the two ANBU who originally protected Kushina.

Kadomu, who had not been fishing for two days after returning to the mission hall, was also pulled over.

Even so, Kushina was asked to put on a black robe, put on a hood, and cover her face. She could only stand in the crowd surrounded by ANBU ninjas, inconspicuous.

It was not that he was afraid that Kushina would suddenly go berserk, but that he was frightened by the incident where Kumogakure sneaked in and kidnapped Kushina.

Since that incident, in addition to being restricted from leaving the village, no matter where Kushina goes, there are always two ANBU following her.

Anyway, Kakugi doesn't agree with this way of protecting the jinchūriki.

The two jinchuriki of Iwagakure are both powerful fighters, and have repeatedly established military exploits in three battles.

On the other hand, in Konoha, restricting Kushina from leaving the village to do missions also limits the growth of Kushina's combat power.

In this way, the Jinchuriki was protected, but the village was like guarding a treasure mountain without being able to discover it, and it lost a super shadow-level combat power in vain.

The village's attitude towards jinchūriki is that they don't seek merit but seek no faults, as long as they don't go berserk and don't lose.

Kazuoki looked at Kushina, her eyes were shining as she looked at Minato.

Minato saw Kakugi in the crowd, nodded and smiled, and then smiled.

Then, the brightest and warmest smile broke out on Minato's face.

Although Kushina was covered tightly, her and Minato's eyes still met.

One is the little sun that attracts everyone's attention in the village, and the other is the girl who hides in the crowd and watches him silently.

Kakugi curled his lips slightly.

Unexpectedly, he was temporarily pulled over to watch Kushina and was fed dog food.

Kadougi didn't know that when he was only paying attention to Kushina and Minato, there was an unknown young figure in the team returning from victory behind Minato. He pushed his glasses slightly and his eyes were shining.

.........

Minato returned victoriously, and the excitement and joy lasted for three days in the village.

Although the defeated Kumogakure has no intention of signing a peace treaty with Konoha, the border has returned to its former peace.

Kumogakure and Konoha temporarily formed a tacit truce between themselves.

In the days to come, there may still be mutual testing between Kumogakure and Konoha, but the intensity of the confrontation will definitely be very low.

Konoha Village finally ushered in peace.

At the same time, Minato's popularity in the village also grew.

Taking this opportunity, the third generation held a Jonin meeting, proposed the idea of ​​​​retirement, and recommended Minato.

After the vote of the Jonin Council, except for a few votes cast for Danzo, Minato was undoubtedly elected as the Fourth Hokage with a high vote.

Seeing this result, the third generation and Jiraiya both showed aunty smiles.

It feels like the baby you raised has finally grown up.

In fact, the third generation really has no desire for power. At nearly 60 years old, he can feel the weakness of his body, lack of energy and decline in strength every day.

While there is still some gas in the tank, choose the young and vigorous Minato to be the fourth Hokage, and he can assist for a few years and do a good job of guiding others.

When Minato officially became a qualified and mature Hokage, the mission of the third generation was completed.

Throughout the entire meeting, Danzo watched with cold eyes and said nothing.

After the meeting, he was the first to leave his seat, and the root ninjas who were loyal to Danzo also left one after another.

It's just that such a disharmonious episode was not taken to heart by others.

.........

Danzo sat on the stone chair at the base, and suddenly thought of the comfortable sofa chair with the third generation sitting under his butt in the Hokage's office.

The hand holding the crutch couldn't help but tighten a little tighter.

Danzo sat quietly for a while, then turned around and went to a secret room next to him.

Danzo gently untied the bandage gauze wrapped around his right arm, revealing the arm tightly clasped by the yellow metal arm armor. The exposed part of the arm connected to the shoulder showed a strange gray-white color.

Danzo made a seal with one hand, and unscrewed the mechanisms on the gauntlet one by one, making a "chi" sound, and the gauntlet immediately split into two pieces and fell to the ground.

Only then did Danzo's right arm reveal its original appearance. It was Kurama Kaine's arm, with nine Sharingan eyes of different qualities embedded in it.

Five three-magatama, two two-magatama, and two one-magatama.

Looking at this arm, Danzo still felt a little regretful.

Too few Sharingan!

Based on Danzo's understanding of the Uchiha clan, once the Sharingan is lost, the Uchiha clan will always actively recycle it. So, the Sharingan of the dead Uchiha clan, will the Uchiha clan still let these eyes and Are they buried together?

Even the eyes of Uchiha Mirror owned by Danzo were the last wish of Mirror. In addition, the third generation paid some price at that time, so the Uchiha clan relented.

In Danzo's memory, it seemed that that was when Uchiha Madara died. The first generation presided over his funeral out of respect for him. Uchiha Madara's eyes were still there at that time.

The funerals of Uchiha clan members after their death are all performed by the Uchiha clan themselves, and outsiders are not allowed in. It is very mysterious.

Danzo believed that the Uchiha clan definitely kept a lot of such useful "ninja tools" as the Sharingan.

Unfortunately, now Danzo can't even see from a distance, let alone get these eyes.

One day, this cancer of the Uchiha clan must be eradicated!

Danzo thought "justly" in his heart.

After shaking his right hand, Danzo felt that this arm truly acted like an arm, without the feeling of being transplanted at all.

Although Danzo had tried it several times after the transplant, he didn't feel any sluggishness at all. It was as if it were Danzo's own arm. Orochimaru's level was really good.

Danzo took a breath, collected his thoughts, and then formed a seal with his hands.

Next, let’s try the power of this arm.

"Wood Release. Cutting Technique!"

"Wood Escape. Silent Killing and Binding Technique!"

"Wood Release. Violent Tree Spear!"

"Wood Release. Thorns Killing Technique!"

"Wood Escape. Tree Realm Descending..."

"Well!"

Danzo let out a groan of pain and quickly stopped experimenting with ninjutsu.
