Chapter 305 The Controversy of Three Generations

"This is an undisguised declaration of war!" Danzo's face turned purple. "Xiao just sent out the message and got a reply from Sunagakure Village the next day."

"Even the fastest messenger eagle will take more than two weeks from Akatsuki Village to Sunagakure Village!"

"They are clearly singing in harmony!"

"It seems that this Chiyo is a powerful character." Sarutobi slowly smoked the pipe in his hand, "He went to the Land of Rain to fight with us before his domestic affairs were settled clearly."

"It seems that we have determined that we will not start the war lightly."

"Huh, if you want to fight, fight. Konoha is a vast land with abundant resources. After these few years of peaceful development, we now have more chunin and above than at the beginning of the Second Ninja War. The next generation of talented ninjas are also constantly emerging. A while ago, there was a man named Namikaze Minato who stood out in the ninja school test. It is said that Jiraiya also plans to accept him as a disciple directly."

At this moment, Sarutobi suddenly changed the subject.

"How is the discussion about the Uchi prisoner going?"

This is the third generation Hokage Sarutobi's biggest headache.

Although the pattern of big family rule in Konoha Village has now been completely broken, replaced by countless small and medium-sized families working together, the size of the Uchiha clan is still unmatched by other families.

In these years of war, even the Senju clan has fallen. Unexpectedly, the suppressed Uchiha has emerged in large numbers with talented people, and there is a faint possibility of a resurgence.

"It's very unfavorable," Danzo said honestly, "The lion of the Kingdom of Wind has opened his mouth. The initiative in this matter is not in our hands."

"Well, this skill is indeed sophisticated," Sarutobi said lightly, "With so many Uchiha elites, especially the Acting Uchiha Clan Chief among them, if we go to war with the Country of Wind, no one in the village will consider us in the Country of Rain. Passive, and will definitely think that we intend to use the sword of the Kingdom of Wind to kill the Uchiha clansmen. If it is serious, there may be trouble within the village."

"The Country of Rain is located at the junction of the three countries of wind, earth, and fire. It has unparalleled advantages in trade and can also serve as our strategic buffer. If we ignore this change, I am afraid that Konoha will be at a disadvantage in the long run. ." Danzo frowned, "Moreover, in the ninja world, many people will regard this as a sign of the decline of Konoha, and some people will use their crooked minds that should not be used."

"One step at a time, one step at a time. Now that the matter has come to this, the loss is a foregone conclusion. There is no point in holding on to some small gains." Sarutobi sighed, and then gently tapped his pipe on the ashtray. , "The Five Shadows Conference is coming soon. Uchiha matters should be finalized as soon as possible. I hope to see the results within a week,"

"The price of this lesson is really high."

"Danzo, your vision should be on the entire ninja world. Since the 'Desert Death' wants to be in the limelight, we just let him do it. As long as Konoha's 'roots' are not damaged, we are dormant underground and slowly absorb nutrients. What will Konoha do? Become a towering tree again!”

Looking at Danzo's leaving figure, the Third Hokage gradually fell into deep thought. Did he give Danzo too much power recently?

But in fact, it was a helpless move. There was no news from Tsunade when she left some time ago, and even the Senju clan did not know her whereabouts. Jiraiya asked for leave every now and then, saying that he wanted to collect some 'writing materials', which was clearly on his mind. It's no longer about Konoha affairs.

The elders of the Presbyterian Council, Koharu and Mito Kaden, only focus on trivial matters in the village all day long. It's okay to let them take care of ninja training and people's livelihood and economy. Once it involves intelligence, war and other matters, It seems that he is somewhat incompetent in matters concerning the life and death of the village.

Now the only person he can rely on is Danzo. Although this person has a bad reputation and is indeed ambitious, he is a real life-and-death friend with him. Moreover, although Danzo is extremely mean, he still has some abilities. , and although the current ninja world seems calm on the surface, in fact it has already been undercurrents. Some things still have to be handled by people like Danzo.

Alas, if Orochimaru could grow up quickly, he wouldn't be so tired.

Danzo turned around and returned to the office located directly below the Hokage Building.

The third generation of Sarutobi once gave him the power to form a ninja group on his own outside of the ANBU, but Danzo insisted on locating the root's headquarters directly under the Hokage Building under the third generation's nose, which itself was an attitude.

No matter how many secrets and conspiracies there were in the Root, Danzo told the Third Hokage Sarutobi without any reservations. This is why no matter how rapidly the Root's power expanded, Danzo's trust in Sarutobi's heart did not diminish at all. reason.

With a creak, Danzo gently pushed open the half-opened door. Under the dim candlelight, Orochimaru, wearing a white apron, was busy on the console.

Sensing Danzo's arrival, Orochimaru quickly changed out of his operating clothes, pulled up the curtain of the experimental table, briefly washed the blood on his hands in the water, turned around and gave a simple salute.

"Why are you free to come to my place today, Danzo-sama?"

"I haven't seen you show up for a while. I thought you were struck by death."

"What's there to fight against?" Orochimaru sneered, "There has always been no shortage of powerful ninjas in the ninja world. I'm just a little sad. I didn't expect that someone as powerful as Hatake Sakumo would be defeated head-on."

"No matter how the ninja world changes, only the village can continue forever!" Danzo nodded, "Konoha White Fang once made great contributions to the village, but unfortunately, the aura of the hero blinded his eyes."

Orochimaru knew what his nominal boss was referring to. After Hatake Sakumo's setback, he didn't know whether it was out of guilt or some emotion, but he got closer to the Uchiha clan.

Originally, the elite members of the Uchiha clan had suffered heavy losses, and the Konoha police force was facing a huge problem in its daily operations due to the tight manpower.

Konoha White Fang actually lowered his status and obtained the status of a standing captain of the police force, sitting in the Konoha Police Force building every day.

As a result, the various family forces that originally disliked the Uchiha clan became worried, and the pressure on the Uchiha clan was suddenly reduced a lot.

The Third Hokage also publicly boasted about Hatake Sakumo several times, and even took advantage of the opportunity to include Konoha White Fang into the village elders' council.

However, many people who are familiar with the inside story know that the original positions in the ninja army of Konoha White Fang have been stripped away. Many ninja families who are friends with White Fang also secretly began to support Uchiha after he further stood up for Uchiha. A clear line was drawn.

Even his six-year-old son, who had just been promoted to chuunin, was called into the ANBU as an exception. In name, he was trained as a key, but whether he had the qualities of a hostage was a matter of opinion.
