Chapter 313 Assassination of Qing Pheasant (2 in 1) (Page 12)
Tsunade suspected that her ears had heard wrongly, so she came to her senses and quickly asked: "Sarutobi-sensei is injured. When will it happen? Does it matter?"
"Right now, I'm still sleeping. I don't know when I will wake up."
Danzo exhaled and looked solemn.
Without even saying hello, Tsunade turned and left, not in the mood to report on the mission now.
She was going to the hospital to visit her mentor and see if, as a medical ninja, she could be of any help.
Danzo's eyes fell on Orochimaru who was still in the room: "Why don't you go there with Tsunade?"
"I'm not a medical ninja, so there's no use in the past?"
Orochimaru is more rational than Tsunade: "Besides, reporting work doesn't take much time."
Danzo admired Orochimaru's rationality.
The things he experienced were quickly condensed into words in his mind, and Orochimaru gave a report in a cogent manner.
Danzo listened, with an imperceptible fear in his eyes.
Aoki's strength is too outstanding, which is not a good thing.
"You are really amazing for being able to defeat Hanzo at such an age." Hanzo held everyone up high and pointed out their names: "Especially Aokiji, his strength is particularly obvious."
The reason for admiring Qing Pheasant so much is not because the sun is rising, but because he wants to see if he can arouse jealousy in his opponent.
If you want to deal with Qing Zhi, dividing the people around him is a very good method.
Orochimaru had a sincere smile on his face: "That's true."
His answer gave him no chance, so Danzo shut his mouth and thought of other ways.
After reporting on his work, Orochimaru did not rush to the hospital, but continued to stay and asked relevant questions about his mentor: "Danzo-sama, Sarutobi-sensei, how could you be injured this time?"
He was very curious as to who could hurt Sarutobi-sensei like this with his strength.
Danzo fell silent, hesitant to speak.
Orochimaru said sensibly: "If this is any secret, then forget it."
Orochimaru said so, and Danzo didn't explain.
This is not because he doesn't trust Orochimaru, but when it comes to confidentiality, the fewer people know about it, the better.
Danzo apologized: "Sorry..."
"If there's nothing else, then I'll quit."
Without getting the answer he wanted, Orochimaru had no reason to stay here.
Danzo nodded, indicating that he could leave.
After Orochimaru left, Danzo was the only one left in the huge Hokage office.
He sat on the chair and touched the handle of the chair, showing an expression of enjoyment.
If I could, I would really like to sit in this chair forever.
Night, hospital.
In the ward, Danzo looked at the middle-aged man on the bed with a cold glint in his eyes.
If he died...
"Is it Danzo?"
The sudden sound sent a shiver down Danzo's spine.
The middle-aged man lying on the hospital bed slowly opened his eyes.
"Hiruzhan, you're awake." Danzo's expression froze.
As Sarutobi Hiruzen wakes up, this announces the end of his position as Deputy Hokage.
I thought it would end, but I didn't expect it to end so early.
Sarutobi Hiruzen had just woken up, and his voice was a little weak: "I really slept for a long time."
"yes……"
Danzo was thinking why he didn't just keep lying there for a while.
"It's been really hard on you during this time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen lay on his back, turning his eyes and looking around: "Did you do all the work while I was sleeping?"
Danzo said solemnly: "Not bad."
A smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face: "Well, you have really worked hard during this period."
Danzo said with some reluctance: "Now that you've woken up, quickly return to where you should have been."
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head: "The injury is more serious this time. I may need to rest for a while."
Hearing this, Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtfully.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked troubled: "I may need you to help me host this for a while."
Danzo frowned and snorted.
He was unhappy on the surface, but secretly he was feeling happy that he could be in charge of Hokage's work for a while longer.
The charm of power, once you taste it, is like eating the marrow and knowing its taste, and you can't extricate yourself.
"I really can't stand you."
Danzo was forced to continue being Hokage, pretending to be disgusted.
Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this, and an imperceptible smile quickly passed through his eyes.
The matter to be dealt with next is of great importance. If it is not handled well, it can easily be stained.
For this reason, you must find someone who can take the blame.
After thinking about it, there is no one more suitable than the person in front of me.
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, I'll trouble you next."
"Hmph." Danzo said with a serious smile, mentally warning himself not to laugh just because he could continue to be Hokage: "Hiruzhan, should you give a good explanation about your injury?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and recalled it carefully. It was a painful memory, and he really didn't want to recall it if he could.
After almost recalling it, he opened his eyes, lowered his voice, and spoke in detail, from beginning to end.
During this time, Danzo's expression went from indifferent to surprised to short of breath.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a look and lowered his voice a little: "What do you think about this matter?"
Danzo said without thinking: "For Konoha, this is the best way."
He had wanted to kill Qing Pheasant for a long time, but he had never had the chance.
Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended and sighed: "This matter is very important. I think it is necessary to discuss it with Koharu and Men Yan again."
"can."
From Danzo's point of view, they both agreed, and those two were just going through the motions.
It didn't take long for the two of them to reach a tacit agreement on how to deal with Qing Pheasant.
"But it's not easy to deal with him."
Danzo said it more cryptically.
Based on his understanding of Qing Pheasant, it is extremely difficult to kill Qing Pheasant.
He is now in a high position and it is very easy to kill one of his subordinates.
You can send them on random secret missions, and you can kill them if you set an ambush in the middle.
But this strategy is only suitable for ordinary ninjas.
First of all, most ninjas are very responsible and sometimes will sacrifice their lives to achieve their goals.
Taking advantage of this, it's easy to kill the ninja.
But Aokiji is different. This guy has no sense of responsibility.
When encountering an enemy that cannot be beaten, he will not hesitate to prioritize his own life and directly choose to escape.
Even if the person he was protecting was a relative of a Daimyo of the Land of Fire, a heavyweight like that, he would escape without any hesitation.
