Chapter 47 Buried Roots

"Hiruzhan, what are you doing? I thought you were dead."

Danzo waited in the small room for a long time, and saw that Hiruzen Sarutobi was finally willing to give up. In addition, he smelled the smell of alcohol from the other party. He frowned and said angrily: "Hiruzen, after you become Hokage, you You are so lazy that you are addicted to alcohol, it is really outrageous."

Alcohol will paralyze the nerves of ninjas. As a qualified ninja, you should never forget to fight at any time.

If a fight breaks out suddenly, this alcohol can kill a ninja.

Facing the accusations from his subordinate and friend, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't take it to heart and smiled: "Don't worry, this is the Daming Mansion, it's very safe, and besides, aren't there you guys?"

Danzo snorted coldly: "What are you talking about in there, and why did it take so long?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said without blushing or with his heart beating: "Nothing, just discussing the specific budget amount."

"How much are they prepared to pay?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing and stretched out a finger.

Upon seeing this, Danzo estimated the amount and frowned in dissatisfaction. After the death of the Second Hokage, the budget was cut so much at once.

Before Danzo could get angry, Sarutobi Hiruzen told him a jaw-dropping figure: "How did you convince them with such a huge budget?"

I sacrificed my appearance.

Sarutobi Hiruzen explained: "The Land of Fire has a unique environment and fertile land, but it is surrounded by enemies. There are many people who covet this land. After the death of the second generation, the strength of our village has been greatly reduced. The daimyo is afraid that the war will affect him. Naturally, We need to invest more in our villages to ensure their safety.”

Being Hokage is not about fighting and killing, but about being a human being.

Sarutobi Hiruzen does not have such great power as the original generation and can ignore these cultural dross.

If he wants to be a good Hokage, he must use some shady methods.

His father often taught him that the higher a person climbs, the more he should pay attention to the cleanliness of the ladder under his feet.

But this is difficult. Unless you have a power similar to that of the first Hokage, normal people will inevitably be contaminated by some darkness in the world during the climb.

In fact, most people are like trees. The more they yearn for the sunshine at high places, the more their roots will stretch into the dark underground.

When the Second Hokage established the Anbu, it was based on this theory, but Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that this was not enough.

Anbu is still too superficial. After all, what an Anbu does, a normal person will know that it is the Hokage's intention after just a little thought.

This doesn't work, the Hokage must be a great and upright person without a trace of stain.

To do this, he also needed a power, a power that was buried deeper than the ANBU.

If something goes wrong, you can put the blame on this person without hesitation, saying that I don't know, and this is all a decision made without authorization.

There is a special term for this kind of people in politics - black gloves.

When he thought of this, he gave his friend Danzo a meaningful look.

The current Danzo must be very unconvinced. Taking advantage of this and deliberately showing his weak side in something, Danzo will definitely stand up without hesitation, show his tough side, and prove that he is a better existence. The guide will eventually bear the dark side of the village.

Seeing the meaningful look from his friend, Danzo was confused: "What are you looking at me for?"

"It's nothing, I just feel good having you by my side."

Hearing these words made him feel gay, and Danzo had black lines on his head: "I'm not interested in men."

After hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed.

Don't blame me, Danzo.

I'm doing this all for the village...

……

……

Konoha Village, medical department.

Since the Second Hokage's unfortunate death, Aokiji hadn't seen Tsunade in the medical class during this period, so he was in a bad mood.

Seeing that Aokiji hadn't rested for several hours to train, Biwako asked him to take a rest first: "That's all right, let's take a rest first."

Qingzhi wiped his sweat, stopped the treatment operation, and sighed: "I can't believe that the seemingly simple Palm Immortal Technique can be so difficult."

Biwako smiled and said: "Of course, this ninjutsu is also an A-level ninjutsu. But you are considered very powerful. You have mastered the trick so quickly. It is estimated that you will be able to officially master the Palm Senjutsu in a short time." Getting started.”

While they were chatting, Aoki asked a more concerned question: "Teacher Biwako, now that Konoha and Kumogakure are in alliance, do we not have to fight anymore?"

Biwako thought for a moment and replied: "Yes."

Qing Pheasant raised his hands and danced: "Okay."

Seeing how naive he was, Biwako shook his head and couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm. Even if he didn't fight now, he would still have to fight in the future.

After the day's medical ninjutsu course, Aokiji immediately left for the Uchiha clan. It was said that ninjutsu would be taught today, and he was very excited.

Developing ninjutsu is too energy-consuming, and it is not as efficient as directly using what we have now.

Young Shota Fugaku saw Aokiji coming and ran over, intending to compete with Aokiji.

Qingzhi looked at him with disgust: "You practice all day long, don't you need to study?"

Fugaku asked in confusion: "Reading, what book should I read?"

Qing Pheasant:? ? ?

Fugaku seems to have been trained according to the standards of the clan leader, similar to Spark. From this point of view, this boy really doesn't need to study.

Fugaku couldn't wait to say: "Okay, don't talk about these things that you have and don't have. Let's discuss it. I just learned a ninjutsu recently."

Defeating Qing Pheasant is now his biggest dream.

Qingzhi scratched his head, "I really lost to you. After today's fight, you won't come to me again for at least a month."

The real boy Fugaku is so competitive that he comes to trouble him for three days and two days. If he doesn't bother him, Aokiji will.

Fugaku readily agreed.

The two of them put some distance away and made a seal of opposition according to the procedure. Fugaku took the lead and was ready to use ninjutsu.

There are many steps in forming the seal, and it looks very bluffing. Aokiji doesn't know what ninjutsu it is, but he directly interrupts his casting and kicks him away.

Fugaku stood up in disgrace, cursing.

Qingzhi teased: "Your ninja technique has so many steps. When you use it, everyone will run away. It was that idiot who taught you."

At this time, Uchiha said suddenly: "I taught him."

The steps for high-level Ninjutsu seals are often very complicated. Once you become proficient, these Ninjutsu seal steps can be greatly reduced to only a few steps.

Fugaku had just started learning, so he naturally had to do it step by step. In addition, the seal formation speed was not fast, so it was already full of flaws and he was knocked down by Aoki's kick.

Qing Pheasant smiled, this was very embarrassing.

But it doesn't matter, his biggest advantage is his thick skin: "Akajounin, you can also teach me ninjutsu. I only know the fire escape and fireball technique."

Uchiha Chi snorted angrily: "Today, I am not the one teaching you ninjutsu."

Qingzhi was confused: "If it's not you, who could it be?"

"it's me."

An old voice sounded, and Qingzhi looked over. It was a white-haired old man - Elder Weasel.
