The old man was in trouble, and the old man was in trouble.
Under the command of Jie, the Root worked very efficiently.
When the Five Kage Talks ended and Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to Konoha, the public opinion in the village had been deliberately guided by the Root. With the undercurrent surging, a storm could be set off at any time.
And this storm was completely detonated when the results of the Five Kage Talks were transmitted back to Konoha!
"How could this happen?"
"We, Konoha, are clearly the final winners of this war, so why don't we let other villages make compensation?! Just for the sake of peace in the ninja world, we, Konoha, have to give in. Did our companions die in vain?!"
"In my opinion, the Third Hokage is old and no longer has the courage and determination he had when he was young!"
"..."
Under the preconceived and intentional guidance of the Root, the villagers of Konoha learned that Konoha had made such great sacrifices and efforts to successfully repel the invading four major ninja villages, but ultimately did not receive any benefits in this war. For a while, the public resentment boiled over.
In terms of strength, these ordinary villagers are naturally not worth mentioning, but public opinion, as the sum of public opinions and attitudes, has a power that ordinary people can hardly imagine.
Even a respected strong man will be unable to move forward once he is caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.
The former reputation will turn into a sharp blade, hanging over his head waiting to be cut off at any time.
As a senior politician, Sarutobi Hiruzen is naturally aware of this kind of thing.
"You still won't give up! Danzo..."
"You will do whatever it takes to achieve your goal. The responsibility of the Hokage cannot be entrusted to someone like you."
In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen was smoking a pipe, looking through the window at the scene of Konoha in the distance.
Since the last assassination in the Hokage building, his Anbu has been paying close attention to the whereabouts of the Root.
After returning to Konoha, the Anbu reported to him that the Root had been fanning the flames in the village and guiding public opinion these days.
But this matter is not easy to solve.
The terrible thing about public opinion is that it is uncontrollable. If you want to forcibly extinguish it, it will most likely only backfire.
Whether he wants to deal with it head-on or wait for the situation to cool down, his old partner will probably not give him time to deal with it, right?
But he did everything he could.
Calculating the time, the matter of recommending Minato to take over the fourth Hokage will soon get a reply from the daimyo's mansion.
In this war, Minato Namikaze is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to Konoha.
He defeated the fourth Raikage of Kumogakure and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki alone, and his strength is enough to shock other ninja villages.
With Minato Namikaze's current prestige in the ninja world, it is not difficult to gain the recognition of the villagers, and with the appointment of the daimyo, this matter is already a foregone conclusion.
The only thing to worry about is the choice of the Uchiha clan in the village.
Now that the war has just ended and Konoha is still in a weak period, if it loses the combat power of the Uchiha clan, it will be worse!
"Hey! I hope Fugaku can solve those hawkish forces in the clan..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and sighed helplessly.
The words that Uchiha Madara said at the Five Kage Summit echoed in his heart...
...
A research base built underground in the back mountain of Konoha.
"Orochimaru, is the clone container ready?"
Zhe looked at Orochimaru and asked directly.
Because of the war, Orochimaru's research was suspended for a while, but many research projects have already achieved initial results.
"Zhe, your bad taste is really scary..."
"The container you want is ready, follow me."
Orochimaru's pupils shrank slightly, and he licked his lips with a smile, and then took Jie to a glass display bottle filled with nutrient solution.
In the glass display bottle, there was an identical clone container cloned with the help of Sarutobi Biwako's hair.
"Huh~"
"Orochimaru, you are really a pervert, you don't even put clothes on the container..."
Zhe saw the naked clone container in the glass bottle, immediately covered his eyes with his hands, and said to Orochimaru with a look of disgust.
"Zhe, we can start."
Orochimaru did not take up the topic and said calmly.
"Then let's start."
Zhe nodded.
Orochimaru quickly formed seals with both hands, and then slapped the ground.
Suddenly, a coffin appeared from the spirit world. It was the forbidden technique created by the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama, the Impure World Reincarnation Technique.
Technique.
Without letting the two wait too long, the lid of the coffin was quickly opened from the inside, and the dead Shimura Danzo returned to the world and stepped out of the coffin.
"Orochimaru, shouldn't I be dead..."
Danzo looked at Orochimaru in confusion.
But when his eyes saw Jie, his eyes suddenly shrank, emitting a fierce and angry light.
"Is it you, the evil Uchiha!?"
"Orochimaru, I order you to catch this guy quickly, his existence is the biggest threat to Konoha..."
Danzo shouted loudly.
"I'm sorry, Elder Danzo, Jie is my most important partner."
Orochimaru stared at Danzo, licked his lips and chuckled.
When Jie brought Danzo's body to him, he also thought about telling Sarutobi Hiruzen about this matter, after all, he still had feelings for Konoha.
However, after Jie gave him White Zetsu, who had the ability of Wood Release, and a small part of the limbs of the Outer Path Demon, for research, Orochimaru completely abandoned this idea.
The terrifying vitality contained in the limbs of the Outer Path Demon far exceeded the previous Hashirama cells, and he saw the hope of eternal life from them!
"Orochimaru! You..."
Danzo's face changed, and he wanted to say something, but Jie's Mangekyō Sharingan had already appeared in his eyes, and the powerful illusion instantly controlled his mind.
Jie controlled Danzo's consciousness and performed the spirit transformation technique.
Suddenly, Danzo's spirit flew out from behind, and an inexplicable force pulled his spirit, as if to send it somewhere.
"Heh!"
Jie looked at Danzo's spirit and sneered, and the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan suddenly increased, controlling the spirit to break into the container in the glass display bottle.
"Orochimaru, it's up to you!"
Zed shouted at Orochimaru.
Orochimaru didn't waste any words, he broke the glass display bottle directly, stretched his neck instantly and flew in front of the clone container, biting on the shoulder.
The dense spell seals spread rapidly on the clone container, and then disappeared quickly.
When Orochimaru finished all this, Zed also stopped the control of the Mangekyō Sharingan illusion.
"Can it work?"
Under the expectant eyes of Zed and Orochimaru.
The eyelids of the clone container in front of him twitched a few times, and then opened his eyes.
