In fact, you can't blame Danzo for thinking this way.

Several people think the same way.

How can a daimyo's only son, the future daimyo's heir, who is in a high position and powerful, become a ninja and take risks easily? Besides, they have been in charge of Konoha for so many years, and have never heard of a daimyo with ninja talent. Their usual thinking makes them think that this is just a ridiculous thing that the daimyo did to make his only son happy.

Just find an excuse to refuse.

Of course, the power four obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Since we're all together, I just happen to have something to say."

Danzo stood up, his eyes gloomy, staring at the Sandai's face and said coldly:

"Sarutobi, the war is over."

Seeing that Sarutobi was unmoved, Danzo raised his voice a few degrees, "Sakumo's reputation has grown! On the battlefield of the Wind Country, Sakumo has made great contributions again!"

The Sandai frowned, picked up the pipe on the table again, and smoked it without saying a word.

But Danzo's emotions became more and more excited, and he continued to insist: "Konoha White Fang, what a big name! Now his reputation has overshadowed you, the Third Hokage! What's the next step? Choose him to be the Fourth Hokage?"

Utatane Koharu also echoed: "Indeed, Sakumo's prestige is indeed too great. Even Orochimaru and others who became famous in the battlefield of the Rain Country are far less popular than Sakumo."

"He should restrain himself."

The voices of the three people became more and more intense, while the Third Hokage just puffed on his pipe.

He was also a little worried.

Sakumo's reputation was indeed too great. In the battlefield of the Wind Country, Sakumo made great contributions and had accumulated too much prestige among the ninjas. This prestige even overshadowed him, and even the civilians called for the Fourth Hokage.

After thinking for a long time, the third generation finally put down the pipe in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Sakumo has just made a contribution. Now you want to suppress him. Isn't it hurtful?"

"Hmph! Sarutobi, you are too weak! If you don't suppress Sakumo's prestige now, you will abdicate!"

The third generation, who had been uneasy about this matter for a long time, heard this and said angrily: "Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

Hearing this, Danzo couldn't hold it anymore, his face suddenly turned black, and he said angrily: "Sarutobi, you will regret it!"

"Bang~"

Danzo slammed the door and walked out.

"Sarutobi, Danzo is also kind, and what he said is not wrong."

"Okay, I know, you go."

The third generation took a deep puff of cigarette, his face was sad.

At this time, he was in his prime, in the prime of his life as a ninja. Naturally, he didn't want to step down from the position of Hokage so early and go home to enjoy his old age. However, suppressing a meritorious official was not a decision he could make.

Alas...

————————————

Ye Ning was naturally not aware of the quarrel in the Hokage Building.

At this moment, they were facing the first trouble after leaving the capital of the Land of Fire.

Ye Ning moved closer to the carriage, with a normal expression on his face, but in fact his body was completely tense, always paying attention to the surrounding trees.

They met a ninja.

Ye Ning found it a little unbelievable.

As far as he knew, in the entire Naruto world, it seemed that there had never been an assassination of a daimyo. Even though the daimyo of the Land of Wind had cut the budget of the Sand Village to that level, they had always been at peace.

What's more, the Daimyo's guards were not that strong. An ordinary person could survive and hold a high position during the ninja era, most likely relying on convention.

No ninja would attack the Daimyo.

Then the question is, why would the ninja hiding in the dark target them?

Of course, the most outrageous thing is that the level of these two ninjas is really not good.

At least, their level of hiding themselves is not high.

Otherwise, he would not have discovered their tracks so quickly.

"Sir~ Can you eat some grapes~"

"No~ Eat my grapes~"

"......"

In the car, there was still the unbearable and lewd sound.

Ye Ning's face twitched, and he wanted to remind him, but he was afraid of scaring his cheap father who was always timid. After thinking again and again, he put down his hand that wanted to knock on the window.

However, it's not a good thing to always listen to these noises behind the car!

He is only twelve years old!

He is still a child!

Ye Ning sighed, and suddenly wanted to run to the shade of the forest to catch the two ninjas hiding.

But seeing the fifty warriors in front of him who were alert but didn't notice anything, Ye Ning gave up.

What if the two guys who exposed their whereabouts were the bait responsible for attracting people, that would be bad, so I had to wait patiently...

Fortunately, the two unlucky guys didn't make Ye Ning wait too long.

It seemed that after a simple observation, the two guys couldn't help but take action.

"Swish"

Suddenly, there were two wind-breaking sounds in the shade of the forest, and two shurikens shot out, pointing directly at the carriage!

Many warriors in charge of guarding felt that their eyes were blurred, and two figures rushed out from the originally calm shade of the forest, soaring into the sky, leaping over the tall trees, and smashing into the gorgeous carriage.

"There's an assassin!"

"Protect the lord!"

Although the warriors were not frightened by the scene, they were also in chaos. Two of them shouted instinctively, intending to protect, but their speed was obviously not as fast as the two ninjas.

At the critical moment, Ye Ning jumped into the air and jumped to the top of the carriage. Facing the two shuriken that were shot at him, he swept away with his sleeves, and then he rushed towards the two ninjas with his hands like a hawk pouncing on a rabbit.

Bang——

In the blink of an eye, the two ninjas who rushed out of the shade of the trees were pressed on the roots of the trees beside them, knocking off a few fallen leaves on the tree.

The whole process happened inexplicably, until Ye Ning completely detained the two ninjas, and the daimyo in the carriage also reacted belatedly, tremblingly poking his head out of the window and quietly looking at them.

The two ninjas obviously realized that they had hit a wall, and they didn't even have the intention to resist, shouting:

"Spare my life! Spare my life! I just want to rob money, not to kill..."

"We two saw that this carriage was exquisite, and wanted to rob it to get some money to pay off our gambling debts... Spare my life..."

! ?

Are you kidding me?

You two, ninjas, came to rob the Daimyo of the Fire Country in the territory of the Fire Country, just to pay off your gambling debts?

Ye Ning did not answer, and his eyes naturally fell on the forehead protectors on the two people's heads.

A scratch in the middle was clearly visible.

Ye Ning's expression suddenly tightened, and he turned his head and said vigilantly: "Rebel ninja?"

Moreover, the pattern of this forehead protector... Why does it feel a little familiar?

A rebel ninja from Konoha?

A rebel ninja from Konoha, robbing the Daimyo of the Fire Country in the territory of the Fire Country?
