Chapter 198: Continue to Target

After Chiba arrived at the Root, she went to Danzo's office and found Danzo.

Qianyu bowed and said, "Master Danzo."

Danzo saw Chiyu and said with a smile, "Here you are, Chiyu."

Chiba explained to Danzo: "Danzo-sama, regarding yesterday's wedding, it was actually the Sandaime who asked me to invite Minato Namikaze, and I couldn't refuse. I know Danzo-sama is very unhappy. I'm really sorry, Danzo-sama."

Danzo gnashed his teeth and said, "That guy Hiruzen! It's fine that he forcefully passed the position of Hokage to his disciple, but he actually wanted to steal my girl! He wanted to use your wedding, Chiba, to improve your relationship with Minato Namikaze!

Chiba, you must remember that it was Namikaze Minato who stole your master's position as Hokage. If it weren't for Hiruzen's insistence on having his own way, your master Orochimaru would be the Hokage now, and as Orochimaru's disciple, you would most likely be the Fifth Hokage.

Now, because Hiruzen didn't listen to my advice and chose a rookie who is not as good as Orochimaru in terms of military achievements and qualifications to be the Hokage, it will be difficult for Orochimaru or you to become the Hokage in the future!"

Ye Fan almost laughed out loud, but luckily he held it back.

Danzo was really worried that he would turn against Sarutobi Hiruzen and Namikaze Minato, and was trying to provoke his anger towards Sarutobi Hiruzen and Namikaze Minato.

He also painted a rosy picture for him, saying that there is a high possibility that he will be the Fifth Hokage. One can guess what Danzo is thinking without having to think too much.

After Orochimaru became Hokage, Danzo had to count on his fingers when he would become the Fifth Hokage.

Danzo wanted to stir up his anger against Sarutobi Hiruzen and Namikaze Minato, so why not him?

Danzo got furious when he just said that it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who asked him to invite Namikaze Minato.

Qianyu nodded with a very serious expression and said, "Danzo-sama, I know. In fact, I am also very angry. If it was Jiraiya-sama who became the Hokage, I would have no objection, but the Sandaime chose Namikaze Minato, which makes it difficult for me not to associate something with it!"

Danzo said angrily: "Orochimaru is right, Hiruzen's original intention was to use Minato Namikaze as a puppet, so that the master and the apprentice can control Konoha together!"

Qianyu paused for a moment and said, "Danzo-sama, now that things have come to this, there is no way to change the outcome. I would like to ask Danzo-sama, regarding the Uchiha clan's plan, how should I proceed now?

It's not war time now, so it's hard for me to continue to target the Uchiha clan. And it seems that after Uchiha Fugaku took over as clan leader, the Uchiha ninjas seem to have restrained themselves a bit."

Danzo was silent for a moment and then said, "We are not at war now. We really can't target the Uchiha clan like we did during the war. Although Hiruzen and I have big differences, he and I have no disagreement on the Uchiha clan. Let's talk about it after I discuss it with him."

Qianyu said at this time: "Master Danzo, with all due respect, you and the Sandaime will probably not be able to reach any conclusion."

Danzo frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Qianyu explained: "Danzo-sama, you know the Sandaime's character better than I do. Before the Third Ninja World War, the Uchiha clan was hated by everyone, and their behavior was arrogant and domineering.

At that time, Uchiha Masaki also realized that if the Uchiha clan continued like this, Konoha would be purged, so he placed his hopes on this war. After achieving enough credit in this war, Konoha would no longer be able to purge the Uchiha clan.

Because of this, the Sandaime chose me, a person who has a deep hatred for the Uchiha clan, to stop Uchiha Masaki's plan.

During wartime, it was not excessive to target the Uchiha clan in any way possible, and everything could be blamed on the war, but that was no longer possible now.

What's more, the Uchiha clan has become much more restrained under the leadership of Uchiha Fugaku.

Given the Sandaime's personality, he is likely to adopt a conciliatory policy towards the Uchiha clan, and may even terminate his plans against the Uchiha clan.

Because the Sandaime was worried that the Uchiha clan would take extreme measures under the high pressure, causing the peaceful village to fall into conflict again. "

Danzo's already frowned brows became even tighter.

Targeting Uchiha was the intention of his and Sarutobi Hiruzen's common teacher, Tobirama Senju.

Because Senju Tobirama was worried that the Uchiha clan would threaten Konoha, he sent a large number of Anbu to monitor the Uchiha clan when Senju Tobirama was in office.

Although Danzo hated Sarutobi Hiruzen, he did not think that he would have any disagreements with him on the issue of the Uchiha clan.

Qianyu seemed to see Danzo's dilemma and continued, "Danzo-sama, for the sake of stability, the Sandaime only asked the Sand Village to pay a little gold sand as war reparations even though we won the battle in Konoha. The Mist Village also only paid a little bit, and the Rock Village and the Cloud Village didn't even ask for war reparations."

Danzo's eyes became fierce.

Danzo felt that Chiba was right. For the sake of Konoha's stability, Sarutobi Hiruzen was very likely to cancel his plan against the Uchiha clan.

If we abandon the plan against the Uchiha clan and let them recover, it will be too late to target them later.

Qianyu said again: "There is one more thing. I found a man in the Uchiha clan named Uchiha Shisui. I think Lord Danzo has heard of his name."

Danzo nodded: "Yes, I have heard that the second person to open the Mangekyō Sharingan after you was also the child of a former good friend of mine."

Qianyu replied, “I came into contact with him once on the battlefield. He is an outlier among the Uchiha clan. The other Uchiha clan members all prioritize their clan first and the village second.

Uchiha Shisui is actually one of the few people in the Uchiha clan who is not bound by narrow-minded intrigue and has inherited the will of fire.

Similarly, I have also met Uchiha Fugaku, who is a very smart person. He wants to change the current situation of the Uchiha clan, and it is very likely that he will let Uchiha Shisui and Namikaze Minato contact the Sandaime to build a bridge of communication between the two sides."

Danzo's expression was uncertain, because after listening to Chiyu's analysis, Danzo felt that this was very likely to happen.

However, even if this happened, he couldn't seem to stop it.

Danzo looked up at Chiba and asked, "If it really happened, how do you think we can stop it?"

Danzo thought that since Chiyu analyzed it this way, there might be a solution.

Qianyu shook her head and said, "I think if it happens, there is no way to stop it, because the Yondaime is just as conservative as the Sandaime, but he can make up for it from other places."

Danzo's eyes became serious and he said, "What do you mean by making up for it from other places?"

Chiba said to Danzo solemnly: "When Lord Danzo goes to discuss with the Sandaime or Namikaze Minato, if he is rejected, you can take the opportunity to propose the establishment of a new department, a department corresponding to the Konoha Guard Force, and continue to target the Uchiha clan through this department!"
