Chapter 112 Hiruzen outside, Danzo inside

47 years of Konoha

Kakashi was promoted to jonin, Uchiha Obito was killed, the battle of Kannabi Bridge broke out, and Nohara Rin was killed.

Chiyo used the possession technique to let Shukaku possess Gaara who was still in the fetal stage, and the Sand Ninja Village cultivated a jinchūriki.

But the major events that happened in the ninja world this year are far from over, and some people feel that the benefits gained from this battle are not enough.

At this time, the land of rain.

"Your Excellency Hanzo, these ninjas were all killed by the Akatsuki organization in your country. Because we are still in peace talks with Iwagakure Village, we can only transport them back for you first!"

In the pouring rain, more than a dozen body bags were lined up one after another, and behind the corpses stood more than a dozen ninjas wearing faceless masks.

The leader of this group of ninjas also wore a ninja vest, but one eye on his face was wrapped in thick gauze.

Hanzo, wearing a gas mask, looked at the people in the heavy rain, and then his eyes fell on the body bag on the ground.

"I have heard a little bit about the Akatsuki organization, but I heard that they are all organizations that provide relief to victims of disasters and promote peace."

Hanzo stared at Danzo with some disbelief, hoping to hear more information from him.

"Your Excellency Hanzo, not everyone has such lofty ambitions like you. It is precisely because of your connivance that they have no scruples. When the time comes, it will affect Chiyu and completely replace your status!"

Faced with Hanzo's suspicious eyes, Danzo talked eloquently. The reason why he slandered the Akatsuki organization was to use Hanzo's line on the tower.

It has to be said that Danzo, the old thief, has some skills in mouth-breathing, and his sharp point of view fooled Hanzo into a daze.

Endangering his rule, Hanzo had to think carefully. He also thought about whether Danzo was deliberately provoking.

However, considering that Konoha is in peace talks with Iwagakure, the probability of unintended consequences at this time is very small.

What Danzo said makes sense. The Akatsuki organization has been making a lot of noise recently, and it's time to take action.

The two old Yinbi successfully connected. Danzo left some root ninjas to assist Hanzo, and Hanzo only needed to mobilize his own forces to find the people of the Akatsuki organization.

A conspiracy against the Akatsuki organization quietly unfolded, but at this time, the Akatsuki organization still knew nothing about it.

At the same time, Konoha Village.

The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, also took action.

Minato walked out of the Hokage Building with a dazed look on his face, the sudden news made him a little distraught.

He went straight back home and closed the door, just in time to see Kushina who was cooking.

"Minato, are you back?"

Seeing her sweetheart back, Kushina smiled sweetly at him, but when he saw that her husband was not in a good mental state, he continued to ask:

"What do you want from me, Hokage-sama?"

There was some worry in his words. After hearing Kushina's concern, Minato finally reacted, and a bright smile filled his face the next moment.

"Um...Hokage-sama asked me to be mentally prepared. He wants me to be the next Hokage!"

Minato scratched his head and looked at Kushina with a silly smile.

"Hmm, okay...huh? Naruto?"

Kushina, who originally thought she heard it wrong, answered smoothly, but the next moment she screamed in surprise and quickly threw herself into Minato's arms, her calves still fluttering.

The sudden surprise really made her happy. There was nothing better than having her man become Hokage.

"Did you say when you will take office?"

The two were affectionate for a while, and Kushina, who had calmed down, quickly asked.

"The current situation is not stable, so it will probably take some time."

The position of Hokage still needs the nod of the daimyo. The third generation Hokage is very optimistic about Minato, but he cannot make a final decision. The process must be followed.

If Danzo knew that his old rival Sarutobi Hiruzen had pushed Minato behind his back while he was doing some tricks outside, he would probably go crazy.

There is Danzo outside, and Hiruzen inside. You know my insidious deeds, and I know your sanctimony. My brother is connected to my heart, and my brother and I are using our brains.

One was looking for foreign help, and the other was more ruthless and simply stole his home.

The two old yins used their own methods, but it seemed that the selfless Third Hokage was the winner this time.

As for Orochimaru, who also hopes to become Hokage, what is he doing now?

"What a generous move! This old guy Danzo is really not a fuel-efficient guy!"

In the underground laboratory, one could see rows of people, or more accurately, experimental subjects, whose hands and feet were tied and hung.

These are all prisoners captured by Danzo on the front lines. They are from various countries, with the most from the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth.

Of course, these are all actions taken secretly by the old thief Danzo, which is one of the reasons why he went to the front line in person.

What better time to do these dirty things than during a war?

It's just that all countries have agreements, and the "Geneva Convention" requires them to treat prisoners well. Unless they persecute prisoners like this, countries will not give up easily.

The Konoha ninjas would not condone what Danzo did if they knew it. Danzo might be able to save his life by relying on his decades-long friendship with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But Orochimaru will definitely be pushed out as a scapegoat, and there is no need to think about killing the donkey.

"Darkness in the Ninja World, Danzo is crazy!"

Thinking of this, Orochimaru looked at a container in his hand, which contained a pair of Sharingan.

Since Orochimaru took out Hyuga Hizashi's Byakugan last time, not only the Hyuga clan, but also the Uchiha clan have increased their vigilance when they go out on missions.

Coupled with what happened with Obito later, Uchiha paid more attention to the protection of his Sharingan.

"I didn't expect Danzo to be able to get the Sharingan under such circumstances. It seems that this old guy can't wait any longer!"

After getting the Sharingan, Danzo became tough when talking, and he was forced to go to work by Danzo some time ago.

Euphemistically speaking, half of the promise has been redeemed, and Orochimaru needs to come up with some results to deliver.

Orochimaru naturally could not refuse such a request. What he had said at the beginning had now become a bargaining chip used by Danzo to blackmail him.

"It seems like you won't be able to go out and hang out during this period, but that's okay, that event is coming soon."

Hashirama has been researching cells for several years, and if he doesn't give Danzo some benefits, he will probably be scolded.

For his dream of Sharingan arm, he had to put a sword on Orochimaru's neck and force him to study it.

Orochimaru couldn't help but laugh when he imagined that scene. Will anyone believe him if he tells me in the future that someone put a knife on my neck and forced me to commit a crime?

And now that there are so many experimental subjects, it is expected that the research on Hashirama cells can be further promoted.

Clinical experiments are always the fastest and most effective method. As long as there are enough experimental subjects, many problems can be solved, but it is a bit useless.

As for the external negotiations between various countries, he didn't care about the Hokage dispute and concentrated on his research.

But not long after, Orochimaru was disrupted by a piece of news.

"Tsunade is leaving?"
