Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 38 Enmity

Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief until he walked out of the Hokage Building, his calm face finally disintegrated, the evening wind blew through, and he felt a little chilly, his back was already wet with cold sweat, but fortunately he was wearing a black shirt today, in the dark Not conspicuous.

Although Shimura Danzo is over [-] years old, Shikamaru is not able to deal with it now. When Shikamaru showed murderous intentions in the conversation, Shikamaru almost slammed the door and fled, but remembering that he was in the Hokage Building at that time, Moreover, his father Nara Shikahisa also knew that he was summoned by Anbu. If Shimura Danzo killed him here, there would be no way to hide it. The feeling of fighting back is really uncomfortable.

This time, I will definitely have an enmity with Shimura Danzo. This kind of person occupies a high position and has long demanded others with lofty ideals and the overall situation. He has formed a habit and likes to order others with collective interests. If he disobeys himself a little, he is selfish and disregards the overall situation. , Shikamaru knew that sooner or later he would confront Danzo, but he didn't expect to be approached so soon.

It is naturally impossible for Shikamaru to enter the "root" and be at the mercy of Danzo. If he wants to join, he will also choose to belong to the Anbe directly under Hokage, not the "root".

Shikamaru strolled back home, and under the inquiry of Nara Shikohisa and Nara Yoshino, he would meet with Shimura Danzo and tell the details of the conversation. Nara Shikamaru heard Shikamaru unceremoniously rejected Shimura Danzo Zang's request, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, you rejected Shimura Danzo. That guy's political opinions have been criticized. Some private actions have caused a lot of trouble for Konoha, but he still thinks that his actions are not wrong. In recent years, he has gradually become latent. It has disappeared from the public's sight, and I never expected to meet you." Shikahisa Nara sighed, as a veteran Jnin who was active on the battlefield a long time ago, he naturally knows Danzo's character: "The root of the The training in the village is very cruel, and it is managed with iron-blooded means. Shimura Danzo himself is an elder of the high-level Konoha. If you join in voluntarily, you can only listen to him, and even the patriarch is difficult to interfere."

"Shimura Danzo may already be prejudiced against me." Shikamaru said after thinking about the way the other party looked at him and the tone of his voice.

"What should I do? The other party is Elder Konoha after all!" Yoshino Nara couldn't help but looked at Shikamaru worriedly, but he didn't blame Nara Shikahisa any more. Facing Shimura Danzo, even the patriarch of the Nara clan had a slightly lower status. inferior.

"It doesn't matter, the third Hokage is still alive, no matter how unwilling Shimura Danzo is, he can't make decisions in the village, and the job of the elders is only to assist Hokage." Nara Shikahisa comforted his wife and said.

Hearing this, Shikamaru nodded in agreement, echoing Nara Shikahisa's words, but actually comforting Nara Yoshino. When the Third Hokage was alive, he would naturally be able to overwhelm Shimura Danzo, so Shimura Danzo would think To collude with Orochimaru to kill the third generation of Hokage, so as to succeed.

It's a pity that Jiraiya has also returned, and the elders of the same bed, Koharu and Mitomon Yan, also opposed him becoming Hokage, and Tsunade took over in the end, but Shimura Danzo gradually became active unwillingly, and constantly challenged Tsunade. authority.

At that time, Shikamaru will be really difficult to deal with.

…………

Although he received unexpected hostility from Danzo, for ninjas, the most important thing is to improve his strength, which is fundamental, and Shikamaru will not be in a state of panic all day long because of this threat.

The next day, Shikamaru got up early, did not eat breakfast after washing up, and after greeting his parents, he went out by himself and came to a tea house in the village. He made an appointment with Asma Sarutobi to meet here, and then Asuma Sarutobi will introduce Shikamaru to a medical ninja he knows to learn chakra control techniques.

Shikamaru thought he had come earlier, but he didn't expect Asma Sarutobi to be waiting there.

After all, they are asking for something from others, so naturally they have to correct their attitude. After the two greeted each other, they chatted at the door of the store while waiting for that friend of Sarutobi Asma.

After a while, a thin man with short black hair and black-framed eyes appeared from a distance. After seeing Asma standing at the door of the store, he was a little dazed and trotted to the door of the store.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Asma!" The visitor looked about 30 years old, touched the tip of his nose at this time, and whispered to Asma a little shyly: "You have been here for a long time!?"

"No, Ah Yuan." Asma shook her head, put out the cigarette butt, stepped forward and patted the other party's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Everyone go in and have breakfast first, I'm so hungry!"

Asma said, she led Shikamaru and the man called "Ogen" into the tea house, and introduced the two to each other during the ordering process.

This man is called Chiba Gen, 27 years old, Konoha Village is a special ninjutsu, good at medical ninjutsu, but poor in physical skills, currently working in the first aid class in the medical department, and Sarutobi Asma is familiar, but She is a bit shy and introverted, and I don't know how she met Sarutobi Asma, who is bold and decadent.

After talking with him, Shikamaru felt that the other party was easy to get along with, and didn't treat him as a junior.

Shikamaru is now in Konoha, and he can be regarded as a well-known ninja. There are rumors that he brought back a beheading sword from the country of Nami, his previous performance in the ninja school, and the signature ninjutsu that used the fourth generation of Hokage. They have all been brought up again and brought into the attention of the masses, not only in the clan, but also among Konoha. Some people have compared Shikamaru with the Hyuga clan, the strongest ninja last year, Higa Neiji, and think that Konoha is the strongest ninja, and it is likely to be Among the two.

As for Sasuke Uchiha, although he has attracted some people's attention because of his identity as the Uchiha clan, his reputation is far inferior to that of Shikamaru and Hinata Ningji.

"Gen, I called you this time because there is actually one thing that needs your help." Sarutobi Asma saw that Shikamaru and Chiba Gen had greeted each other, and after getting to know each other, he made the request: "Shikamaru This kid is very talented in chakra control, but groping alone is too much time, I want you to help him teach him in this area, after all, when it comes to chakra control, no one can compare to your medical treatment Ninja."

"Ah?" Chiba Gen was taken aback when he heard the words, looked at Shikamaru and Asma, scratched the back of his head, and said with a smile: "No problem, I will do my best to teach Shikamaru."

Shikamaru's potential has already begun to be revealed. As long as there are no accidents and he dies in the process of growing up, he will definitely become a ninja in his own right. Chiba Gen did not refuse Sima's request

"Please take care of me from now on, Chiba-senpai!" Hearing this, Shikamaru quickly thanked.

…………

While Shikamaru, Asma, and Chiba Gen were talking in the tea house, under the four hokage stone statues located on the highest peak of Konoha Village, they were guarded by various buildings in the large conference room in the Hokage Building in the center of the village, Konoha Ninja Village The four elders with the highest authority are discussing about the tenth class.
