Chapter 325 Forming the Shadow Guards
"Haha, you actually want to assassinate Namikaze Minato. Danzo, this old guy, really wants to be the Hokage."
Orochimaru whispered to himself softly.
......
The root ninja who contacted Orochimaru brought back the news that Orochimaru was unwilling to participate, and Danzo couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Danzo originally planned to let Orochimaru take Kai and the others to assassinate Namikaze Minato, while he would sit in Konoha. Once the news came back, he would immediately attack the Third Generation and seize power.
Even if the assassination fails, Orochimaru is the best person to take the blame.
But now it seems that Danzo took it a little too much for granted.
"Hmph, I really overestimated Orochimaru's ability. I originally thought that after the matter was completed, he would inherit the root."
Danzo smiled disdainfully, his eyes full of coldness.
As of now, the matter is imminent. Namikaze Minato may go to Kyoto to see the daimyo at any time and receive a formal appointment.
Even if Orochimaru doesn't want to participate, he will start it!
If you don’t have Orochimaru, then lead the team yourself!
Namikaze Minato is only 23 years old this year, which really makes him secure the position of Hokage. Danzo will never be able to be Hokage again in his life.
Danzo could no longer think about the consequences of failure!
At this time, Danzo was like a gambler who had lost all his chips, his eyes were red, and he could only see the victory that was about to be won.
Killed Namikaze Minato, returned to Konoha with a great victory, forced the third generation to give up power, and sat on the throne of the fourth generation Hokage!
With two wood escape ninjas, myself and A, and a strong and unafraid of death, we will definitely win!
The plan goes through!
.........
Although Minato has not yet gone to Kyoto to meet the Daimyo, everyone knows that this is nothing more than a formality.
After Minato was elected with a high vote, Sandai retired directly on the spot and took up the position of advisor to the elders.
His handwritten letter has also been delivered to Daming Mansion by the Anbu.
The daimyo's reply was also very quick, and soon the time for Minato's audience was set.
The other three generations immediately handed over the ANBU power they held to Minato.
However, Minato, who had just assumed power, did not plan to make large-scale changes. After meeting with the ANBU captains, he stated that everything was business as usual.
Except for the superior in charge being replaced by Namikaze Minato, the ANBU only added three squadrons to its establishment.
The three squadron leaders are Inuzuka Gabi, Akimichi Donato and Aburame Shimi.
It was Minato's old partner and teammate.
No one has any objection to this matter. As the Hokage, Minato naturally needs to have the power of his most direct lineage.
For example, Minato has no intention of taking back the power in the hands of elder advisors such as Mito Kazuo, but tries to maintain the status quo as much as possible.
Minato knew very well that when he first came to power, what he needed most was stability and transition. Only when his prestige was established would it be time to make personnel changes.
Furthermore, even if changes are made now, Minato actually doesn't have a good candidate in hand.
Although the three elder advisors Mito Kadeni, Koharu Tennene, and Akimichi Tōfū may have some outdated ideas, their starting point is all for Konoha.
Not to mention the third generation, what Minato needs most now is the third generation's assistance.
As for Danzo Shimura...
After that vote, Danzo never showed up again. He sent people to look for him and simply claimed that he was sick and disappeared.
Not to mention Minato, even the third generation and Koharu who had been talking to him couldn't stand it.
It's just that although Danzo stayed behind closed doors, he was very honest during this period and didn't cause any trouble.
In addition, Minato has just taken over, and now the village really needs the power of Danzo's roots.
Minato remained rational and did not go directly to Danzo to settle the score.
However, Minato has secretly made up his mind that when the situation stabilizes, he will be the first to take down the roots.
The third generation is a little confused about Danzo's recent behavior.
Based on his knowledge of Danzo, an old friend, he should be able to do something.
You've been so honest lately, so you just stay alone in the base and sulk?
Transitioned?
.........
The only action Minato made during this period was to form his own Shadow Guard.
But judging from the composition of this Shadow Guard, it is really the youngest Shadow Guard in the ninja world.
The team members include Hatake Kakashi, Hinata Akira, Shiranui Genma, Tamezu Raidou, Dai Iwasi, and Mitarashi Anko.
The captain is Umino Tsunoki.
Two jounin, five chuunin.
When Kazuoki, who was happily fishing in the mission hall, was caught by Minato, he was completely confused.
Kakugi just wants to say that he has just turned 13 this year.
In the entire team, except for the 21-year-old Hinata Akira, the oldest one is the 15-year-old Chuunin Iwasi.
"No, Minato, are you forming the Shadow Guards or the Junior Class?"
Sitting at Minato's house, Kazuoki asked Minato confused.
Uzumaki Kushina, who was busy cooking on the side, quickly covered her mouth when she heard Kakugi's words.
No, no, Aunt Bipahu said that you must maintain the image of a lady in front of outsiders and not laugh out loud...
Minato smiled helplessly and said: "There is no other way, I also want Zhiwei and the others to help me..."
What Minato was talking about was his former old partners, Inuzuka Jaw, Akimichi Donato and Aburame Shimi.
As Minato's former teammate, he fought with Kumogakure and Iwagakure together, and his strength, qualifications and experience were all the same, making him a proper elite jounin.
But the village needed them more. Although the ANBU was handed over to Minato, if he wanted to completely control the ANBU, Minato needed his own direct lineage.
If Minato used them to form the Shadow Guards, it would be a waste of their abilities.
In addition to these "direct descendants", Minato obviously does not want other ninjas who are not familiar enough to be his confidants to serve as his shadow guards.
On the other hand, these current candidates are all relatively young and have good abilities. It is a good time for "shaping".
With Minato's charisma, these little ninjas would take his shape sooner or later.
Minato told Kakugi what he was thinking, and then said: "So, you, who are still young but have superior strength, become the most suitable candidate."
"I'll be counting on you more from now on, Captain Kakugi." Minato smiled and patted Kakugi on the shoulder.
"Besides, being in the mission hall every day is boring, right? Or do you want to come to the office and help me just like you did when you helped the Sandaime handle documents before?"
Minato simply put his arms around Kazuoki's neck, acting like a follow-up and seducer.
Tsunoki:......
"I want to say that I really like the job of fishing in the mission hall. Do you believe it?"
Watergate:......
"What are you talking about!" Minato slapped Kadomu on the shoulder, then pulled Kadomu over, put his head on Kadomu's forehead, and said viciously in a low tone: "Don't even think about bargaining! Otherwise, come to the office and help me. !”
"Besides, what you need most now is actually to accumulate qualifications and experience. Isn't this a good opportunity! In a few years, your age and qualifications will increase, wouldn't it be a good time to show off your talents!"
