Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Tsunade's expression changed, and she could no longer restrain her dissatisfaction and said, "Hard-lined!? Elder Danzo, do you know what you are talking about!? Now, the number of ninjas from the three major ninja villages gathered at the border is already over 10,000, and this number may increase at any time. The Hidden Rock Village has sent out the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, and what about the Hidden Cloud Village!? Isn't it!? And the Hidden Mist Village, what you are doing is dragging Konoha into a war of destruction. Once such a situation occurs, who will bear the responsibility!? Is it you? Elder Danzo? But can you bear such a responsibility!?"

It was a completely harsh response.

This is the result of Tsunade controlling her emotions.

Tsunade was almost pointing at Danzo's nose and scolding him for overestimating his abilities.

After hearing Tsunade's merciless words, Danzo's expression became gloomy.

He is obviously just a junior.

The atmosphere was obviously much more eerie.

Just when Danzo was about to say something.

"Well, this is indeed a problem that needs to be carefully considered. We cannot bear the pressure from the three ninja villages. So, Tsunade, what are your thoughts?"

Mizutomon En in the opposite position spoke in advance.

"We can use the captured Sand Ninja and the One-Tail Jinchuriki to negotiate with the Sand Village. As long as the Sand Village withdraws its troops, restores the previous alliance, and compensates us for our losses, we can return the One-Tail to the Sand Village. In this way, the threat to our west will disappear. After the Third War, the Cloud Ninja and the Rock Ninja have had an irreconcilable conflict. We can take advantage of this. Even if the pressure is not completely eliminated, at least it can be controlled within the range we can bear."

Tsunade sorted herself out and spoke in a calm tone.

This was not just her idea.

Rather, it is an overall outline plan proposed by Shikaku. When it is implemented, there will definitely be more detailed arrangements, but for now, this is the best choice for the three ninja villages.

There are concessions and there is also strength.

It feels like the Hokage of Konoha are all from the same lineage.

“Well, that’s a very reasonable approach indeed.”

"I think so too."

After hearing this, Mizuto Menen and Utane Koharu felt a familiar feeling in their hearts.

That’s it.

at this moment.

The two looked at Tsunade with eyes full of relief and recognition.

This is the Hokage they recognize, and he is indeed Hiruzen's disciple.

The two consultants were satisfied.

Danzo was naturally unhappy.

In his opinion, there is no need for Konoha to make concessions!

Even if we take a step back and really choose to give in, it is not impossible. Danzo is not really stupid enough to say that he can't see the threat of the three major ninja villages, but the concessions should be limited, right! ?

How could I possibly give up such an important chip?

Even though Konoha has lost the Nine-Tails, how can the largest ninja village be without a tailed beast and a human pillar?!

This is something that will not be allowed!

Danzo's expression suddenly became even more gloomy.

But with his two close advisors' betrayal, Danzo knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless.

Afterwards, regarding Menma's issue, Tsunade directly expressed her attitude without hesitation.

"Finally, there is the issue of Uzumaki Menma. After all, he is the son of Minato and Kushina. We in Konoha should not deal with him in a high-profile manner. This is not conducive to internal stability. I think it is most appropriate to let Jiraiya take full charge. After all, Jiraiya is Minato's teacher. I believe there is still some room for maneuver."

This doesn't need to be stated too clearly.

Mizuto Kado En and Utane Koharu also got it instantly. At that moment, the two of them looked at each other and nodded slowly.

"Since you said so, Tsunade, let's leave it to Jiraiya first."

We still have to hold on to some hope, because from the perspective of the two consultants, they also feel that Menma is the type who has been bewitched by Orochimaru, so there should still be some room for him.

What's more, no matter how bad the situation is, it will still be the same, right?

This is another naked situation where they have reached an agreement.

This made Danzo's mood even worse. Originally, he wanted to unite with his two close advisors to put pressure on Tsunade, but why did it suddenly become like this! ?

Danzo didn't understand.

But he was even more angry because he was powerless to change the outcome, just like when Sarutobi Hiruzen was in power.

just now.

Tsunade is the Hokage.

When he thought of this, Danzo became even angrier.

Naruto!

Naruto!

Naruto!

He must become Hokage!

The fire of ambition in Danzo's heart had burned to its extreme degree at this moment.

Chapter 155 Chain Reaction

Danzo was destined to return home disappointed in this high-level meeting.

It should be said that in the past thirty or forty years, such scenes have been played out repeatedly in this office. It’s not that Danzo was trapped in some kind of obsession, but he simply wanted to make his voice heard in this way.

After all, Danzo can be called a political creature.

As long as it is related to politics, any seemingly meaningless behavior actually has a certain role.

Even though Danzo controls the Root with his "Tongue-eradicating Technique", to be honest, there are quite a number of people in the Root who are die-hard loyal to Danzo. These people simply bow down to Danzo's personal charm and agree with his political ideas.

Therefore, just for this reason, Danzo must always use some actions and words to demonstrate his side as a powerful political creature.

The repeated clashes of power are an extension of his ideas and will.

Just like this moment.

Danzo did not hide his gloomy eyes at all, and looked straight at Tsunade.

"Hmph, then it's up to you. But I have to say this first. Whoever makes the decision will bear the responsibility. In addition, my Root will still carry out the action according to the original plan. Everything is for Konoha."

Danzo snorted coldly, stood up, slammed the ground with the cane in his hand, turned around and walked away, not giving Tsunade, the Hokage, any face at all.

After all, he once ignored Sarutobi Hiruzen. Now facing a junior like Tsunade, don't expect Danzo to have any respect. Even if it's just superficial effort, Danzo is unwilling and impossible to do it.

Looking at Danzo who left angrily.

Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu also looked helpless.

We have been friends for decades, so we should know each other well.

"Tsunade, just do what you want. We will support you. You don't have to worry about Danzo. We two old guys will keep an eye on him. But please believe that everything Danzo does is for Konoha, not for anything else. It's just that his methods are sometimes a little extreme. I hope you can tolerate this. After all, Konoha cannot do without Danzo."

When Mizuto Menen saw that Tsunade seemed to want to say something, he quickly spoke.

The only one who can truly be so cruel is Danzo.

Whether it is Sarutobi Hiruzen who has died in the battle, or Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, the three of them still value the friendship between each other very much and truly believe in Danzo's character.

If everything was really the same as Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have completely removed Danzo from his position and taken back all power a few years ago.

After all, the reason why Danzo could still exist so brazenly as a high-ranking official in Konoha was all due to the permission of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Occasionally? Only occasionally does this happen. "

Tsunade cursed inwardly subconsciously.

But since Mito Kado En said so, Tsunade naturally couldn't continue to hold on to it. After all, these three people were indeed her elders, and Tsunade was not the kind of iron-blooded leader, so it was impossible for her to do a completely one-size-fits-all approach.

"Well, please rest assured, Elder Mitomon, I will know my limits."

Tsunade took a deep breath, suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and spoke slowly.

"That's good, we won't bother you anymore."

After Mitokado En and Utane Koharu looked at each other, they stood up and left at the same time. Now that the Hokage of Konohagakure has returned, the things they need to deal with have become much less. Generally speaking, as long as there are no major problems, these two consultants are still quite sensible and will not really come out to hinder Tsunade.

What they didn't know was that their existence and their clinging to power had already become a hindrance to Tsunade, and the scene just now was the best proof of that.

"The soul is pale!"

So, after the two consultants left.

Tsunade was also very angry and threw the documents in her hand away.

Shikaku and Shizune, who were sitting nearby, looked at their noses with their eyes and their mouths with their noses, as if they hadn't seen anything.

Wait until Tsunade adjusts her emotions.

"Shikaku, just follow the order just now. Also, notify the Sand Village and ask them to send someone to the Hidden Leaf Village immediately to discuss the relevant matters."

Tsunade looked at Shikaku and said solemnly.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Shikaku immediately bowed and replied.

Different people, different time points, this is still an approximate result.

Just after Tsunade returned to Konoha and issued many orders as the Hokage, the entire Konohagakure Village also took action. Konoha's move directly affected the surrounding countries.

Especially for the Iwagakure and Kumogakure, Konoha's choice will affect their judgment.

Didn’t you see that the Cloud Ninjas have already taken the initiative to create friction at the border?

The purpose was to test the attitude of the Hidden Leaf Village.

And now, the result of the test came out.

It is not what the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Iwagakure want to see, oh, or to be more precise, it should be the Hidden Cloud Village, because the old immortal Tsuchikage of the Hidden Iwagakure Village did not have any particularly high expectations of doing anything to Konoha from the beginning. Although Ohnoki is much more courageous than Sarutobi Hiruzen and will not hesitate when it is time to take action, he is still old after all. What he hopes now is to see the Hidden Cloud Village be able to smoothly transition to the hands of the next generation.

Cultivating a new generation of heirs is what Oonoki wants to do most.

Go to war with Konoha?

Or even start the Fourth Ninja World War? Sorry, Ōnoki really doesn't have such thoughts and ambitions. Instead, he is very interested in Uzumaki Menma.

That’s the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

Even if it requires taking certain risks, or even paying a certain price, Ohnoki feels it is worth a try. And unlike the Fourth Raikage Ai who was stubborn, the strategy this old man adopted at the beginning was to 'persuade' Menma to join the Iwagakure Village.

What is a 12-year-old boy afraid of! ?

In the words of Ōnoki.

"Old man, can't I convince a little guy?!"

Therefore, the Iwagakure Village does not really care about the response of the Konohagakure Village. They can be tough if they want to, because Oonoki has no intention of doing anything to the Konohagakure Village itself anyway.

Only the Fourth Raikage, after hearing Tsunade's order, sent more ninjas to the front line, and it seemed that he had regained a balance with the Sand Village.

He was so angry that he smashed the new desk in his office which he had just moved a few days ago.

But no matter how angry the Fourth Raikage was.

Things that have no chance just have no chance.

It is impossible for him to really ignore the risks. It would be a foolish decision to forcibly attack Konoha without the right opportunity.

Chapter 156 Focused Sights (Part )

This is obviously a situation that can only be suppressed by force.

The entire ninja world was still maintaining its previous "peaceful" situation in this strange place, which made those well-informed small and medium-sized ninja villages breathe a sigh of relief. The outbreak of the Ninja World War had always only brought disadvantages but no advantages to these small ninja villages.

If you are not careful, you will be directly involved in the war between the two major ninja villages. That would be the most unfortunate thing, because even choosing a side is an extremely brain-burning and life-threatening question, and you have no idea what choice you should make.

Now that we can see that the situation has stabilized, these people are most happy.
