Starting as a part-time worker from Naruto

"I remember you."

Akihara Kagura turned around and repeated it to Mitarashi Anko, controlling the wooden dragon to circle and wander towards the depths of the Death Forest.

"Let me say hello to you all first..."

"This kid..."

Mitarashi Anko thought for a moment, then leapt and rushed towards the examiner!

In fact, there was no need for Mitarashi Anko to report. Almost everyone present saw the appearance of a huge wooden dragon. The wooden dragon was almost floating above the Death Forest, and everyone even thought that they were attacked by an unknown enemy.

Hokage Tower.

A group of Konoha high-ranking officials watched everything on the screen in amazement.

Even though Danzo Shimura had long known that Akihara Kagura had mastered the Wood Dragon Technique, he never thought that this child would be able to fully restore it through his abstract teaching method.

The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen held a pipe in his hand but was reluctant to put it into his mouth. His brain was spinning rapidly as he calmly thought about what this child who had mastered Wood Release meant to Konoha.

Compared to Sarutobi Hiruzen, the other two Hokage advisors did not have to think so much. The starting point of their proposals were all based on the interests of Konoha.

Their eyes immediately fell on Shimura Danzo.

One of the old men wore glasses and his name was Mitomon En; the other old lady had squinted eyes and her name was Utane Koharu.

These two Hokage advisors were once teammates of Danzo Shimura, so they were naturally not so taboo when speaking and asked directly the most crucial questions.

"Danzo, when did this child awaken Wood Release?"

"Danzo, whose child is this? How did the Wood Release bloodline in his body awaken? Does he have the blood of the Senju clan?"

"..."

Shimura Danzo was silent for a while before he answered, "This is a child from the Konoha Orphanage. Many years ago, Orochimaru illegally conducted a human experiment on him using Wood Release, but he survived. Since I saw that this child had a strong vitality, I brought him to the Root. He suddenly awakened Wood Release not long ago..."

"Is that so?"

Mitomon Yan's brows were wrinkled with age lines, and he sighed and said, "It seems to be a very accidental event..."

Utatane Koharu's tone was no longer as excited when she spoke: "I thought that I could let the village regain the Wood Release Bloodline of the First Hokage, but those human experiments are too dangerous for the people who participate in them after all."

"A is just an example."

Shimura Danzo also nodded slowly.

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen finished thinking, picked up his pipe again, and slowly uttered the first sentence: "It seems that this child's Wood Release is very powerful. He can almost completely restore the Wood Release Ninjutsu of the First Hokage. One day, he may become the next First Hokage!"

"Oh?"

The two Hokage advisors immediately became curious.

Mizuto Menen had never paid attention to the Wood Release Ninjutsu recorded in the Book of Seales. After all, Konoha had never been able to restore the Wood Release of the First Hokage, so he subconsciously asked about it.

"Can this child become a ninja as powerful as the first Hokage?"

"Ok?"

Shimura Danzo almost immediately understood what Sarutobi Hiruzen meant, and said quickly: "This child's Wood Release Ninjutsu cannot be compared with the first Hokage. The Birth of the Tree World..."

"Danzo, you are too limited."

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Shimura Danzo and explained in a serious tone, "The Tree World Descent technique is not perfect yet... but the Wood Dragon Technique is different!"

"If the effect of his Wood Dragon Technique is the same as what is recorded in the Book of Sealing, it can even suppress the tailed beasts. This child's Wood Release talent is much stronger than you think. It is a waste to let him do those little things in the dark at the Root..."

"Wait……"

Shimura Danzo's eyes widened involuntarily.

"Yes, Danzo!"

Utatane Koharu frowned and suggested, "Danzo, it's a waste to keep this child in the Root. We should give this child to Sarutobi..."

"..."

Shimura Danzo gripped his cane tightly.

Why did this sentence sound familiar? Why was it my turn to hear those words that I had always said to Sarutobi Hiruzen in the past?

Chapter 29: Danzo, you don’t mind, do you?

"Sarutobi, you promised me..."

Danzo Shimura's eyes were gloomy as he stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sitting leisurely in the Hokage's office chair. This old friend wanted to snatch him away from him.

This hypocritical old bastard clearly promised me before that he would not transfer Akihara Kagura away from the Root. What's this attitude now!

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't even need to ask for it, as if he didn't mean that at all, but his words implied that Akihara Kagura's Wood Release had an important use, and the two Hokage advisors would naturally support him.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage...

I am just an assistant to the Hokage who helps him do the dirty work!

"Everything is for Konoha's sake!"

Mitomon En looked at Shimura Danzo. He knew his old friend and tried to persuade him: "For the future benefit of the village, we can only temporarily sacrifice the combat effectiveness of the Anbu training class. What did Sarutobi promise you?"

"I promised Danzo that I would not transfer that boy away from the Root Class."

Sarutobi Hiruzen let go of his pipe, sighed and said, "Although this may delay the growth of the child and affect the overall situation of the village, especially when Konoha is facing internal and external troubles, I can't go back on my promise..."

"Sarutobi."

Mitomon En immediately interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen and said in a deep voice: "Have you forgotten the promise you made to the village when you became Hokage? Is there anything more important than the promise to protect Konoha? That child's Wood Release can protect Konoha!"

"..."

Hypocrisy! What a hypocrisy!

Danzo Shimura stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

That old bastard Monkey has no intention of keeping his promise!

Mitokado En was fooled, Utatane Koharu was also fooled, both Hokage advisors were deceived by that old bastard Monkey, he is the most hypocritical person!

however……

The current situation is three to one.

Shimura Danzo had no way of raising any objections.

"Danzo."

Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed Shimura Danzo's grim expression and said gently, "It seems I have to break my promise."

At this point, Sarutobi Hiruzen even asked a democratic question: "You wouldn't mind if I transfer that child over here?"

"..."

Shimura Danzo's face was gloomy.

If you use your brain, you will know that I will mind...

But is it still up to me to do this kind of thing?

However, when Danzo Shimura thought of Akihara Kagura's Wood Release talent, he couldn't help but say something: "That child has already been trained to be a killing machine... Perhaps it is best to let him stay in the Anbu training class."

Shimura Danzo looked back at the screen showing the Death Forest test center and said in a cold voice, "The darkness in that child's heart is too deep, and his actions are too extreme. If I hadn't ordered him not to kill people casually, that child would have made this Chunin Exam a bloodbath."

"Oh?"

The two Hokage advisors looked at Danzo Shimura with a little curiosity.

Mitomon En seemed to have seen something incredible, as if he was looking at a liar: "Danzo, you stopped that kid from killing people..."

You stopped that kid from killing someone?

How can you say such a thing?

Is there anyone in this world who does things more extreme than you?

Everyone here is an old friend. Who doesn’t know how you raise your children?

Would Danzo, who likes to gather a group of children together, train them, force them to kill each other, and train children to become killing tools from an early age, stop a child from killing?

"All right."

"If Danzo says so..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up his pipe again and nodded, "It seems that we can only arrange for this child to join the Anbu first?"

"..."

Danzo Shimura gritted his teeth.

Is this old bastard really listening to me?

Do you have to adjust it to your own dark part?

Can’t we let the child stay at the root?

The point I made was that this child only obeyed my orders, and it was not a question of which department this child should be placed in!

Monkey, this old bastard who was ambiguous, has already acquiesced to a result: Akihara Kagura must be transferred away, right?

"Once the Chunin Exams are over, have him report to the ANBU."

Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended not to understand what Shimura Danzo meant, and took the opportunity to finalize the result, issuing the order in a clear and concise manner.

"Wait……"

Danzo Shimura quickly opened his mouth to offer further suggestions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Shimura Danzo and continued, "As compensation for the Root's combat power, you can carefully select two capable men in the village."

"..."

Danzo Shimura was speechless.

Who can be compared with that kid Akihara Kagura?

What's more, he is the assistant of the Hokage. If he wants to draw personnel from those small ninja clans to join the Root, will those small ninja clans dare to refuse?

Shimura Danzo gripped his cane tightly.

If this old bastard wasn't the Hokage, Danzo would have wanted to raise his cane and slam it hard into Sarutobi Hiruzen's unwanted old face.

"If everyone agrees, let's just make this decision first!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly picked up his pipe again and continued to look at the screen: "Let's continue to see if there are other outstanding children in this year's Chunin Exam..."

"Ok?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt Shimura Danzo staring at him again.

However, when Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around, he found that Danzo Shimura was also staring at the screen playing the Chunin Exam.

It seems that Danzo Shimura still hates him for breaking his promise, which is why he secretly stares at him from time to time. Sarutobi Hiruzen just laughed at this.

This old friend...

Still so timid...

He didn't even dare to look me in the eye openly.

Death Forest Examination Hall.

A huge wooden dragon slowly swam in the sky.

Akihara Kagura stood on top of the wooden dragon and used [Ninja's Darkness] to spy on the situation in the Hokage Building. The boy had already known in advance that he would be transferred to the Anbu.

after all……

This is also the original intention of Akihara Kagura.

Because he had too little free time in the Root and was always under the surveillance of Shimura Danzo and the Root members, at least he had some breathing space in the Anbu.

the most important is……

The Dark Department has a more complete organizational structure than the Root Department.

The only boss of the Root is Danzo Shimura, but the Anbu has bosses like squad leaders, battalion leaders and general leaders, and there are more benefits to being in the Anbu.
