Ninja school teacher, I can become stronger by teaching.

Chapter 607: The Promised Future of Konoha

[Name: Shimura Danzo]

[Chakra: 146000]

【技能：风属性查克拉性质变化（精通：6100/15000）、风遁·真空波（精通：2900/15000）……木遁（熟练：1200/3000）】

[Potential: SS- (Basic Talent + Six Paths Bloodline)]

Looking at the identified data, Mu Yue looked thoughtful.

Danzo Shimura's panel has been improved in almost all aspects.

Chakra, skills, and potential have all been improved. Needless to say, the chakra increase of tens of thousands is obviously not the result of normal training.

At the same time, Danzo Shimura is also one of the few ninjas identified by Mu Yue whose potential value has changed.

The sudden surge of chakra, the appearance of Wood Release in the skill, and the increased potential made Mu Yue instantly think of Hashirama's cells.

Shimura Danzo's faceplate upgrade perfectly matches the effect of Hashirama's cells.

The increase in chakra is due to the Sage Body, and Wood Release is also an essential ability of Hashirama's cells.

"At this stage, Danzo should not have the ability to transplant Hashirama's cells, and the degree of enhancement is not like that of an ordinary Hashirama cell transplant." Mu Yue closed the panel and used Flying Thunder God to return to his home in the main city.

Before, he specifically asked the shadow clone to retrieve White Zetsu because he was worried that White Zetsu's body would be obtained by Danzo Shimura, allowing Danzo Shimura and Orochimaru to master the technology of Hashirama's cells in advance.

Unexpectedly, during the time when Danzo Shimura was away from Konoha, he inexplicably transplanted Hashirama's cells.

In the current ninja world, there are only two ways for Danzo Shimura to transplant Hashirama's cells.

One is the collaboration with Orochimaru, the two of them have been working hard on experiments with Hashirama's cells.

The second is Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

In the original work, Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura's research on Hashirama's cells at this time was not deep enough, and the transplantation operation was almost equivalent to murder. Among all the experimental subjects, only Yamato survived.

Due to the intervention of the time traveler Mu Yue, the plot has undergone significant changes, so Mu Yue cannot be 100% sure that the progress of Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru's research on Hashirama's cells is the same as in the original.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Mu Yue still ruled out one possibility and believed that it was Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu who were causing trouble.

Even if Orochimaru overcomes all difficulties and makes a breakthrough in his research on Hashirama's cells, given Danzo Shimura's cautious character, he would not use it on himself right away.

Moreover, the improvement brought about by Danzo Shimura is so huge that the effect was seen shortly after the transplantation, which is not like an ordinary transplantation of Hashirama's cells.

If one of the only two options is removed, then the remaining one is undoubtedly the truth.

"Is it you, Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu?" Mu Yue tapped the desk lightly with his fingers and said silently in his heart.

Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu are the ones who have done the most in-depth research on Hashirama's cells in the current ninja world. If it was their work, then all problems can be explained.

Even Mu Yue could easily guess the motives of Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

If Danzo Shimura killed Sosuke, then there would be no need to find an extra way to get rid of Sosuke in the future, and it would be easier to fool Nagato.

If Danzo Shimura failed and was killed by Sosuke, the result would be a shock to Konoha, and the ninja villages that had ideas about Konoha would take advantage of the situation and move in.

If Danzo Shimura and Sosuke died together, it would be a double blessing for Uchiha Madara and others.

"Maybe there's even an idea of ​​pulling me down."

Uchiha Madara and the others did not see through Mu Yue's disguise, and Shimura Danzo was Mu Yue's secret boss.

Mu Yue thought about it this way and found that Danzo Shimura was really a useful chess piece for Uchiha Madara and the others, and he could be useful whether he was dead or alive.

"Let's see what Danzo is planning." Mu Yue planned to wait and see the situation.

Mu Yue is not afraid of the conspiracy against him, because he now has many means at his disposal and is not afraid of being targeted.

The more things Uchiha Madara did in secret, the more it proved his weakness.

If Uchiha Madara is still able to fight, he should be confronted head-on. After all, Uchiha Madara is not suitable to be a villain.

Mu Yue is worried about those disciples. Obito and his disciples are currently at a stage where they are neither better than the best nor worse than the worst. They cannot defeat strong ones, but they can beat ordinary jonin.

This kind of strength is not enough to survive the conspiracy of Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

……

"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

In a remote and uninhabited place outside Konoha, Danzo Shimura quickly formed hand seals, condensing a large amount of chakra and transforming it into Wood Release chakra.

More than a dozen saplings broke out rapidly and grew rapidly, becoming big trees with lush branches and leaves that were enough to provide shade.

"It's not that easy after all." Shimura Danzo showed a dissatisfied expression.

This was obviously a failure, as the Tree World Descent performed by Hashirama Senju could instantly create a forest with thousands of large trees.

He has less than twenty trees, let alone tens of thousands.

However, Danzo Shimura was not discouraged. Even Hashirama Senju was not born as the God of Ninja. He became powerful after training and finally became the strongest.

He had just acquired Wood Release not long ago, so a small failure was nothing.

Danzo Shimura did not continue practicing, but took out the scroll of the Wood Release Secret Technique left by Hashirama Senju and began to read it.

This was one of the reasons why he returned to Konoha. Konoha had a large amount of information on Wood Release, and during the month of preparation, he could use this information to cultivate powerful strength.

Although it was only one month, Danzo Shimura was not a beginner in ninjutsu. One month was enough for him to master a lot of Wood Release.

"Wood Release·Wood Clone!"

"Wood Release·Wood Spindle Wall!"

"Wood Release: Silent Killing Binding Technique"

After failing to use the Tree World Descent, Danzo Shimura began to practice simple Wood Release.

After a few hours passed, looking at the traces of destruction on the ground caused by Wood Release, Danzo Shimura smiled.

It has been a long time since he felt stronger through practice. On the one hand, his work did not leave him much time to practice, and on the other hand, his strength had reached a bottleneck.

After the training was over, Danzo Shimura began to clean up the traces of his training.

Because he was worried about being discovered by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he didn't even dare to practice in Konoha, and naturally would not leave any traces of his practice.

Then Danzo Shimura quietly returned to the Konoha Root Base and went to the Hokage Building.

He hasn't shown up with Sarutobi Hiruzen for a while, so he needs to make his presence felt.

crunch.

Danzo Shimura pushed open the wooden door of the Hokage's office and walked straight into the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up and saw that it was Shimura Danzo, so he looked at Shimura Danzo quietly.

What Shimura Danzo says next will determine the importance of knocking on the door.

"Huruzen, I think it is necessary to strengthen the power of the Root and the Anbu. The battle with Iwagakure fully exposed the lack of our intelligence power." Shimura Danzo put a document on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk and said. This was a proposal he had written a long time ago, but Shimura Danzo felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen would most likely not pass it, so he did not show it to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now it can be considered as waste utilization.

After all, Danzo Shimura couldn't come to chat with Sarutobi Hiruzen empty-handed.

In that case, Sarutobi Hiruzen would only think that Shimura Danzo was weird, and then the problem would be more easily discovered.

"I've been told so many times that you should knock on the door before entering the office. Why can't you, the assistant Hokage, set a good example?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said as he knocked on the table in dissatisfaction.

As soon as Danzo Shimura opened his mouth, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew what he was thinking.

Strengthening the power of the Root and the Anbu was because he was worried that if he only strengthened the power of the Root, he would directly reject it.

Shimura Danzo's expression became unhappy, but he didn't say anything.

He has already obtained the key to becoming the strongest, so he doesn't bother with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the documents on the office table and began to look through them.

After looking at it for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said:

"It would be a waste of too many resources, and your roots don't need such a large establishment."

In fact, the most important reason is that Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't want to strengthen the power of the Anbu at all.

Because strengthening the power of the Anbu will cause a problem, that is, the power and influence of the Hokage will increase.

The Anbu is a department that only obeys the Hokage. If the Anbu becomes stronger, it will be reflected in the Hokage.

Although it is beneficial for Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage, to strengthen the Anbu, Sarutobi Hiruzen already has enough say in Konoha and does not need to strengthen the Anbu to enhance his power.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen was worried that the strengthening of the Anbu would lead to an imbalance of power among the top leaders, making the future Hokage's assistants and advisory elders meaningless.

"We did lose the intelligence war to Iwagakure. It was not a matter of the number of personnel, but a matter of being suppressed on the technical level.

If I give you one more team, can you guarantee that you can produce the same results within two years?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

If Danzo Shimura could really figure out the camouflage methods used by the Iwagakure spies, the Root would expand.

After all, the methods used by the Iwagakure spies are difficult to guard against in the current ninja world and can play a huge role in the war.

"But we have too many opponents. Even from this perspective, we should strengthen our intelligence capabilities." Danzo Shimura did not give up.

If he was convinced by Sarutobi Hiruzen all of a sudden, he wouldn’t be himself anymore.

"Intelligence ninjas are not the same as Root and Anbu ninjas." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and continued.

The two argued for a while, and it ended with Danzo Shimura leaving the Hokage's office with a gloomy face and without saying a word.

"Next time, let Danzo pay for the maintenance of the office door." Looking at Danzo Shimura slamming the door shut, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has been in a good mood recently, so he didn't care too much about Shimura Danzo.

Now Konoha really has a bright future.

Among the younger generation, there are young and powerful people like Mu Yue and Minato. They are young but capable of taking on important tasks and are even more outstanding than the three ninjas of the same age.

Looking further down, there are talented young men like Kakashi, Obito, and Might Guy, who are obviously super geniuses who can take over Mu Yue and Minato's team.

Looking back, the three ninjas are all in their prime and have the ability to become Hokage directly, except for Tsunade who appeared unexpectedly, they are all very good fighters.

If you look a little higher, you can see that there are still people in Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has a head full of black hair without a single strand of silver, and is at the peak of his strength.

His classmate Mitomon En wasn't in as good a condition as him but wasn't much worse.

As for Danzo Shimura, as a former friend and rival, his strength is naturally not bad either. He is a strong man who specializes in wind escape.

If we lower the strength threshold, Konoha still has powerful elite ninjas such as Mr. Chen, the former Ino-Shika-Chou, etc.

If they win the war and develop for another ten years, Sarutobi Hiruzen feels that Konoha can return to its peak.

Although there may not necessarily be an absolutely strong person like Hashirama Senju, the overall strength of Konoha as a whole will far exceed that of other large ninja villages.

……

After leaving the Hokage's office, Shimura Danzo's originally ugly expression instantly became indifferent, and even a little disdainful.

"Huruzen, so what if you are the Hokage now? I have already mastered the Wood Release that you have always dreamed of but could not get." Danzo Shimura thought to himself.

His performance in the Hokage's office just now was just a disguise to confuse Sarutobi Hiruzen's sight.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen mistakenly believe that he was still racking his brains to develop the power of the Root.

After acquiring Wood Release, Danzo Shimura felt a transcendent feeling in his heart.

He has mastered the bloodline limit of the ninja god, and is not on the same level as ninjas like Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Once I have completely mastered Wood Release, I will be the only one to be the Fourth Hokage!" Infinite confidence surged in Shimura Danzo's heart.

He no longer wanted to support Orochimaru to become Hokage.

Compared to him, Orochimaru is not worthy of being Hokage.

When Danzo Shimura sacrificed his life for Konoha, Orochimaru was nowhere to be found.

Thinking of his contributions to Konoha over the years, Danzo Shimura felt that Konoha owed him a Hokage!
That is to say, after the Senju Tobirama hiatus, there was no time to think too much about it. Under normal circumstances, he should have been the Third Hokage.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Danzo Shimura did not return to the Root base, but went out to continue training.

Although he felt that he was the popular choice, Danzo Shimura knew how much pressure he would face if he wanted to become Hokage.

If he wants to become Hokage, he can only use Wood Release to suppress all voices with his powerful strength.

Although he is strong now, he is not strong enough to suppress all voices.

At night, Shimura Danzo returned to the Root base and said to a Root ninja:

"Call Mu Yue over, I want to see him."

Danzo Shimura returned to Konoha for only three purposes.

One is to master the secret technique of Konoha's Wood Release to increase his strength, and the other is to fool Sarutobi Hiruzen to prevent his actions from being exposed.
The final third place is because of Mu Yue.

"Uchiha Madara" hides everything, which makes Shimura Danzo feel very insecure. He always feels that "Uchiha Madara" will destroy the bridge after crossing it, and after the success, not only will he not pass on the Ninja Clan's inheritance to him, but he will also kill him.

Therefore, Danzo Shimura wanted to make Mu Yue, who had come out into the open, his trump card.

This would not only ensure his safety, but also allow him to compete for the ownership of the Rinnegan if the power of Uchiha Madara was not as strong as imagined.

Those are the eyes of the legendary Six Paths Sage. How could Danzo Shimura be willing to give them to others?

Moreover, for Danzo Shimura, it is not only the eyes of the Six Paths Sage, but also a piece of the puzzle for him to become Hokage!
