At this time, the atmosphere in the Hokage's office was very gloomy.

Especially Sarutobi Hiruzen.

His already old face was full of anger.

"I want to know what happened this time!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and spoke dully.

"I am not sure"

"After the incident, we also investigated"

"But... I didn't get the news……"

Utatane Koharu spoke directly.

He immediately put all the things that happened away from him.

"Hokage-sama, are you doubting us?"

Mitomon En also spoke up.

Who in Konoha would dare to attack the daimyo in the village?!

He and Koharu Utatane were called here together, and it was clear that they were just here to make up the numbers.

Otherwise, calling Danzo Shimura directly would be too obvious.

The heads of other families are not stupid.

Even so, everyone knew it clearly.

Everyone's eyes fell on Danzo Shimura.��

"What's wrong?"

"Are you looking at me, planning to blame me for this attack?"

Shimura Danzo said calmly.

It was obvious that he was not afraid of such a thing.

"So, this wasn't something you did, right?!"

"So... these ninjas are not members of your Root Organization?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said, took out a list and slammed it heavily on the table.

On it was the information that the Anbu had investigated.

That's right, it was the information of those so-called"Anbu" members who were killed when they first entered Konoha.

Without exception, they were all members of the Root Organization.

"They have been missing for several days."

"Lord Hokage, you don't know, do you?"

"I have reported the list of missing persons to you. You should know the answer by checking the list."

"Now they have called the head of the security department here, are they planning to frame me with this missing Root member!?"

"If you insist on putting the blame on my Root Organization, I have nothing to say."

Shimura Danzo spoke calmly.

With just a few simple words, he shifted all the blame for this incident to Sarutobi Hiruzen. He even dragged Uchiha Fugaku into this vortex.

"Missing?!"

"Root organization members will also disappear?!"

"They all have the curse of your root organization."

"Even if you want to leave the Root Organization, isn't it you, Danzo, who can allow it?!"

Suddenly, Uchiha Itachi appeared here. He was not as silent and calm as before, but rushed towards Uchiha Itachi's spearhead.

After hearing what Itachi said, Danzo's face became a little gloomy.

At this time, Itachi's expression was also a little angry.

"Our root organization is not a dictatorial organization."

"If the Root Ninjas want to leave, I will let them go."

"As for the curse, it only regulates their behavior and prevents them from revealing the village's secrets."

"It won't affect their behavior."

Danzo spoke again.

This unnecessary explanation has already put Danzo in a low position.

Before, Danzo didn't even need to explain.

He did it! He did it.

Even if others knew, they couldn't do anything to him.

But now, the situation has become a little weird.

"Danzo"

"Wash your hands. Go back and deal with this matter first."

"For things like this, the root organization is yours, so... you are responsible"

"Let's go back"

"You should not participate in the Spring Festival meeting."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke at this time.

"you……"

"Humph!"

Danzo's face was gloomy.

But now, he no longer had any bargaining chips.

If the fight got out of hand, then all the blame would be directed at him.

He snorted angrily and turned away.

"Okay, now Fugaku, go and make preparations. I don't want any problems to occur in the village during the Spring Festival."

"Also, from now on, Konoha's safety is entirely your responsibility."

"If anyone appears who might be from another village or betray the village, you will be in full control of them."

"Xiaochun, Yan"

"You also slightly……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not continue to speak.

He just looked at the two of them with a hint of meaning.

"Got it."

The three of them nodded and left.

As for Uchiha Itachi, he was also taken away by Uchiha Fugaku.

After everyone left the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Asuma came out from the lounge at the back.

"Hokage-sama."

Asuma stood in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, lowering his head.

"You performed very badly this time."

"I have already made it clear to you in the letter that you need to build a good relationship with the Uchiha"

"But what did you do?!"

"At the first moment, he wanted to attack Uchiha"

"You like this……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Asuma with some regret. At the beginning, Sarutobi Shinnosuke was stronger than Asuma in every aspect.

……

"Hokage-sama, I……"

""Father, do I really need an Uchiha to sit in this position!?"

Asuma wanted to say something, but suddenly his rebellious heart broke out again, and he asked with a dissatisfied look on his face.

Uchiha!

Whether it was Uchiha Shisui in the past or the current Uchiha clan.

Why do these guys have to stand in front of him?

He is the son of the Hokage and the guardian ninja of the Land of Fire.

Asuma is confident in both his identity and his own strength.

But why, even if he is like this, he still can't get the recognition of his father!?

"snort!"

"Are you really that confident! ?"

"Do you think that I can sit firmly in this position because I am strong enough?!"

"Or do you think that our Sarutobi clan alone can be my greatest confidence! ?"

Before, Sarutobi Hiruzen only thought that Sarutobi Asuma was young and arrogant.

But now, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to admit that his youngest son was a little stupid!

"Can……"

"No, this is all because of the support of other ninja families in the village."

"Their support is my confidence!"

"Now, you want me to join forces with the Uchiha? No way!"

"Danzo will not allow, nor will he let me do this."

"You are different"

"Asuma, if you want to take this position, the first thing you need is the support of the Uchiha."

"In other words... I will not give you this position until you get the support of the Uchiha."

"Go back and meet your mother."

Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted Sarutobi Asuma and waved his hand.
