Chapter 208 The Darkness Hidden in the Moonlight

Madara clenched his fists and calmed down his anger a little, "Where is the granddaughter of that rubbish Senju Tobirama now?"

Black Zetsu replied immediately, "She and Akimichi Genbu were both in Konoha Village a few days ago, but recently their whereabouts are unknown. I guess they went to some secret place."

"So you lost me again, right?"

Black Zetsu said tremblingly, "Please forgive me, Madara-sama. Akimichi Genbu is very good at barriers and perception. We dare not monitor him too closely. Moreover, since he exposed the existence of White Zetsu in order to save Kakuzu last time, his vigilance is much higher than before. He has set up several more defense barriers and perception barriers in his home on top of the original ones, making our investigation even more difficult."

Madara fell into deep thought: He really wanted to kill the descendant of that shameless trash Tobirama Senju right away (Hashirama: Actually, Tsunade is my real granddaughter. You keep saying that, as if Uzumaki Mito and my brother are having an affair. I'm not happy, so unhappy! I feel like there's a grassland on my head for some reason), but now that things have come to this, he can only put it aside for the time being. It's already a bit unpleasant to have barely achieved reincarnation using that trash's ninjutsu. Letting that little girl live a little longer will be considered as repaying him. Madara doesn't want to owe that trash anything.

It’s better to get down to business first.

With this thought, Madara no longer hesitated, "What are those people doing now?"

White Zetsu rushed to answer, "Kakuzu is still looking for a heart that satisfies him, and he has found three so far, and he is still short of a fire-attribute heart.

The traitor of the Yeyue family, Yeyue Li, and his good master's wife, Hongwan, have successfully infiltrated the inner part of the Hidden Mist Village. Now they are the capable men of the Third Mizukage, and both have become captains of the Anbu. "

Madara smiled. "Since I have been resurrected temporarily with the body of the Impure World Reincarnation, the plan can be advanced. We don't have to wait until we find a high-quality Uchiha clan member before we start. Of course, you still have to continue looking for someone who can complete the task for me. After all, I don't want to stay in this broken body without blood and flesh for a moment. As long as you find the right person, I will immediately return to the Pure Land and wait for resurrection."

Hei Bai Jue nodded and said, "Hey, we will definitely not let you down!"

At this moment, Black Zetsu was very happy. The earlier the plan was made, the sooner he could rescue Kaguya!

"Since Kakuzu hasn't collected all the hearts yet, there's no need to recall him. Let's go directly to the Hidden Mist Village. I've been an old man for so long, and I just need to stretch my muscles. I hope that the so-called Third Mizukage won't disappoint me too much."

Uchiha Madara never drags his feet. He leaves as soon as he says he will, leading the way out of the secret room, followed closely by Black and White Zetsu.

After coming to the ground, the moonlight shining from the sky was extremely dazzling to him. He squinted slightly. Having lived underground for too long, Madara was a little uncomfortable with the cold and bright moonlight.

"Let's go."

"Hi."

The former Shura of the Ninja World and the thousand-year-old villain set out on the road to the Hidden Mist Village, and what awaits the Water Ninja is only endless hell.

...

In the basement of Konoha's root base, Danzo Shimura was sitting on a chair, tapping the table with his left hand, and supporting his old face with his right hand, thinking with his eyes closed.

"At present, only half of the Root is in my hands, and the right to train ANBU ninjas is still completely controlled by Utane Koharu, so there is no one around the Third Hokage who belongs to me. How can I make Utane Koharu disappear in a reasonable way like Mito Kado En?

Orochimaru's requirement for cooperating with me is to give him the cells of the First Hokage, Hashirama, first. Should I give it to him now?

When will that little brat Akimichi Genbu die in my hands?"

These three questions have been puzzling him.

After a long time, the sound of fingers tapping on the table stopped, and he made a decision.

"C, go tell Orochimaru that I can give him the cells of the First Hokage, but all his research reports must be shown to me, and he must cooperate with me to complete the cell transplant."

"Hi."

The ninja wearing a fox mask knelt down to accept the order, then disappeared.

Danzo was the only one left in the empty room, his eyes gradually became dangerous, and a sinister smile appeared on his face, "Utatane Koharu does have an idea, but we just lack the right opportunity.

Let's put the matter of Akimichi Genbu aside for now. I have tried many times to kill him before, but all ended in failure. He almost made me stay away from the center of power forever. The kid's Mangekyō Sharingan is almost blind, so it's useless even if he gets it. I'd better wait until I deal with Utane Koharu and get all the roots before I can slowly deal with this kid.

The most urgent task is to drag Orochimaru into the water first, and let him help me study Hashirama Senju's cells thoroughly as soon as possible, so that I can quickly master the great power that can suppress the tailed beasts with just a wave of my hand. After succeeding, I can reveal all the things that Orochimaru has done.

When the Fourth Hokage, whom you personally trained, not only secretly destroyed the remains of the First Hokage, but also conducted a large number of evil experiments, and all these things are made public, Sarutobi Hiruzen, your position as Hokage will be over. What will you do then?

Will you abdicate for the sake of justice, or deliberately let Orochimaru go and allow him to betray Konoha and become the biggest stain in your life, or will you save the life of your most beloved disciple at the cost of your own life?

I’m really looking forward to it! "

When Danzo Shimura was plotting against Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also plotting against him.

After finishing all the official business, the Third Hokage did not leave the Hokage's office. Instead, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a frown on his face, smoking one cigarette after another.

After the Second Ninja World War, the Fire Nation is still the most respected Ninja World. He is in his prime, his rule is becoming more and more stable, and the younger generation of Konoha is also thriving. Logically, he should not have too many worries, but he is upset today.

The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen was so worried was because the spies sent to the Iwagakure Village had brought back news.

Intelligence shows that during the final battle with the Iwagakure, Ōnoki did not issue an order to attack Konoha's seriously injured camp.

In other words, it was not the Iwagakure who killed Mito Kado En, but someone else.

In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen had long suspected that there was something fishy about Mito Kado En's death. With the war imminent, Ohnoki must be crazy to waste his fighting power on Konoha's seriously injured soldiers.

That's why he sent people to the Iwagakure Village for a secret investigation, and the result was exactly as he expected.

But this was the result that Sarutobi Hiruzen most didn't want to accept. If it was really as he guessed, he would rather Mito Kado En really died at the hands of the Iwagakure.

After smoking a pipe, the Third Hokage let out a long sigh. He looked at the two photos on the wall and said, "Hashirama-sensei, Tobirama-sensei, if the case is really traced back to him, what should I do?"

This man who didn't even frown when he planned to act as bait to lure away pursuers in order to cover the retreat of the Second Hokage and his teammates during the First World War; this man who remained calm and believed that victory would definitely belong to Konoha when fighting against the coalition forces of Wind, Earth and Rain at the same time during the Second World War; this man who defeated the Third Tsuchikage and the Third Raikage and was respected as a Ninja Hero by the world, was now confused.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who is only 43 years old this year, has a hunched back, as if he has suddenly aged ten years.
