Chapter 6 Return to Konoha and meet Danzo
Konoha, Hokage Building.
The sky is cloudless today, and the long-lost sunshine has brought some life back to the village for the villagers.
Post-war reconstruction always seems busy and heavy.
At this time, Yue Le was sitting in the lobby of the Hokage Building, holding a portion of three-color meatballs in one hand and a skewer in the other, trying hard to finish the delicious food.
Because he couldn't speak the language, he didn't know why Orochimaru and the others brought him back. This place was much more prosperous than the village. In Yue Le's memory, he had never seen such a prosperous place.
After testing by Tsunade and Orochimaru, it was found that his body absorbed energy very quickly and had super strong cell activity, so Orochimaru and the others did not let Yue Lezui have any time to spare along the way.
What surprised them the most was that Yue Le could keep eating, and the food he ate was quickly transformed into vitality and stored in his body.
"Is that the child that Orochimaru-sama and Tsunade-sama brought back?"
"I heard it was, it seems to have been brought back from the Rain Country..."
"What's so special about it that you two adults would bring it back at this time..."
"Who knows? But the two adults naturally have their own considerations. Why should we care so much? Choose the tasks quickly. We are almost too busy. It's really..."
"Hey. Here it comes!"
......
"Are you two serious?"
"Well, old man, this child will be in Konoha from now on. He will grow up to be the big tree that Konoha needs to support the future... I promise!"
"Tsunade, what about you..."
"..."
"...That's what I meant."
Tsunade, who was standing nearby, saw her teacher looking at her and couldn't help but sigh, but she still spoke.
"Whoo~"
Surrounded by smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were full of spirit. He was the Third Hokage of Konoha, and in front of him stood his most satisfied disciple.
"You know, I need to consider the safety of the village."
"He is still young and worth training. And seeing that he can't even speak the language, he doesn't have any hostility towards Konoha. Since he meets all the requirements in terms of talent, character, and age, why can't he become a member of the village..."
"Orochimaru, are you serious?"
"Teacher, I am willing to be his guarantor!"
Subconsciously knocking the table with his pipe, looking at his disciple who refused to give in, Sarutobi suddenly felt relieved that his disciple had also grown up...
That’s right. How many people in the entire ninja world don’t know the name of Konoha Lengjun?
He was willing to believe in the judgment of his disciple. Besides, this child had become a member of the Hokage series from the moment he entered the village. In that case, why couldn't he do that? The Will of Fire was enough to make that child a loyal guardian of Konoha!
"Bring him in, Orochimaru..."
"You agree, teacher?"
......
boom!
"Sarutobi! I heard that Orochimaru brought back a child? Give him to me and I will give you a perfect ninja!"
"Impossible, Danzo!"
"Ninjas don't need emotions. Only by leaving it to me can he fully tap into his talents!"
"Bonds are the best interpretation of the Will of Fire! Danzo, you are too extreme!"
"Humph!"
"Is this the kid?!"
Although he used questioning words, Danzo's tone was particularly affirmative.
With a bang, the door of the Hokage's office was pushed open, and a figure full of aggressive aura rushed towards Sarutobi, causing Yue Le, who was standing in the middle, to feel his heart jump.
This person has deep darkness and malice in his heart!
She was wearing a white lining with a monotonous black jacket, and her pair of eyes seemed so captivating that Yue Le unconsciously shrank towards Tsunade.
This look was so scary, he seemed to have seen it somewhere before. It was a person who gave him extreme fear. Who was it?
Rubbing his temple, Yue Le was very clear that he had never seen this man before.
Feeling Yue Le's retreating steps, Tsunade gently stroked his somewhat frizzy head, calming him with her actions, and pulled him to her side, while warning Danzo with her eyes not to go too far.
Yue Le was comforted by Tsunade and gave up the thoughts that were giving him a headache. Soon, this discomfort was forgotten as if it had never existed.
"Is this the child? He is indeed a good candidate..."
He looked Yue Le up and down, as if he was looking at goods in the vegetable market, and his eyes made Yue Le extremely uncomfortable.
"Danzo, you know I can't leave this child to..."
"Teacher, I think it's okay."
"..."
"..."
"..."
What does it mean to silence a crowd of people with just one sentence? Orochimaru demonstrated this himself.
When these words came out, not only Sarutobi and Tsunade were shocked, but even Danzo did not expect Orochimaru to speak for him, and gave him a puzzled but relieved expression.
As expected, I am the best candidate for Hokage. Hiruzen, you are already old, and even your disciples are beginning to oppose you. You should step down as soon as possible!
Only I, Shimura Danzo, am the best candidate for the Hokage that everyone in Konoha is looking forward to!
Before Danzo could continue his fantasy, Orochimaru's next words made his face fall, and the expressions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Tsunade became somewhat strange.
Well, it’s Orochimaru as expected.
"This kid can follow Danzo, or he can be brought into the Root for training, but I will be his direct foster parent. At the same time, the teacher can enter the Root from time to time to check on his training progress, including using the telescope technique to watch!"
The atmosphere always changes in an instant. At least Yue Le didn't understand why the expressions of the people around him changed so much with just two sentences, making him tremble all over.
Hey! Please, I feel bad for not understanding what they are saying! You guys are still showing off your face here, right? Do you really think a sick cat won't show its power?
Although in the eyes of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, he is now just a kitten that can only meow.
"Orochimaru you......!"
......
