Chapter 70 For Konoha

Konoha Village, Hokage Building, small conference room.

Three generations of Naruto Sarutobi Hiruzen, two advisors, and the root leader Shimura Danzo, the four surrounded the small table.

This is the first high-level meeting held after the war.

After this meeting is over, the patriarchs of the families and the "heroes" in this war will be called together to summarize the war.

At this time, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face was gloomy, and the faces of the two consultants were not very good-looking either.

As for Danzo, the old god squinted his eyes halfway.

"Danzo, why didn't you show up during the war?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked in a deep voice.

Danzo raised his eyes to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen, and said slowly: "I used to lead the root team to monitor the rear of Konoha, to prevent the Kingdom of Wind and other small countries from taking advantage of the fire."

In fact, this is just a made-up excuse.

From the very beginning, Danzo hid underground with his roots.

According to what he said, it was to preserve his strength, and if all the others in Konoha died, he could rebuild Konoha himself.

Of course, psychologically, this is also for his "Hokage Dream".

——Actually, I am afraid of death.

But he won't tell anyone, it's not a glorious idea after all.

Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitomon Yan and Zhuanju Koharu who were beside him were also stunned for a moment.

They didn't expect Danzo to use such an excuse.

Since he said that, Hiruzaru Sarutobi couldn't find any reason to be held accountable, and it was even more difficult to tell the truth from the fake, so he could only give up in silence for a long time.

Afterwards, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's eyes flickered, and he spoke again:

"In this war, the Uchiha clan has made great contributions. The elite of the enemy country can't stop the power of Sharingan at all."

Turning to bed Xiaochun nodded, and said: "It is true that some rewards should be given, especially that Uchiha Natsu, who has a high reputation among many villages."

In Zhuanzhu Xiaochun's view, their original plan was to arrange for the strongest enemy of the Uchiha clan.

If the Uchiha clan can repel the enemy, it is also beneficial to Konoha, and if they cannot be repelled, it is still beneficial to Konoha.

Now, only one of the results has been achieved.

For Konoha, this result is still a good thing.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, his thoughts were different from that of Zhuanju Xiaoharu.

What he said just now was actually what he said to Danzang.

Danzo claims to be smart, but every time he pushes a little bit, Danzo can't wait to go up.

This is why he repeatedly forgave Danzo.

There are many things that people with bright faces can't do, but the roots hidden in the ground can do.

And there is no need to tell him clearly, just mention it, and he will figure out what to do next.

Who doesn't love such a Danzo.

In fact, if the Uchiha clan repelled the enemy under the premise of normal damage, that would be acceptable.

But in fact, the Uchiha clan not only killed the enemy with extremely low casualties, but also saved many people.

The result of this is that the prestige of the Uchiha clan in the Land of Fire has been raised too high.

Originally, although the Uchiha clan is an unstable factor, the threat has not reached the level that Danzo said.

Only Zhishui was alone, and those kaleidoscopes were indeed a deadly weapon.

In order to deal with Kaleidoscope, Hiruzaru Sarutobi deliberately chose Shisui as one of the candidates to go to the Land of Thunder.

The purpose is to keep Zhishui away from the village first, through this mission, to see the performance of Zhishui before making countermeasures.

Since then, Sarutobi Hiruzen has raised the threat of the Uchiha clan by a level.

At the same time, additional manpower was sent to guard Naruto to prevent Kyuubi from being captured.

Those people, who didn't even participate in this war, always protected Nine Tails.

The reason why the real threat to the Uchiha clan is low is actually word of mouth.

The reputation of the Uchiha clan is too bad.

Even if they rebel, they will be suppressed by other families in the village.

With Uchiha's usual style, it is even more impossible to unite with any family, which is equivalent to being alone.

But this time, Uchiha's biggest limitation - the relationship between families, has a tendency to be eliminated.

If this continues, if the Uchiha clan rebels, the possibility of success will be very high.

That's why Sarutobi Hiruzen deliberately praised Uchiha's contributions in front of Danzo.

In this regard, Sarutobi Hiruzen has never said it explicitly, and has always hinted at it to avoid falling into the mouth.

Danzo, on the other hand, suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He originally thought that Sarutobi Hiruzen would propose to deal with Uchiha.

But unexpectedly, not only did he not propose to deal with Uchiha, but he wanted to reward Uchiha instead.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Danzo, so he immediately said:

"No, the prestige of the Uchiha clan is so high, it will pose a great threat to the village!"

Mitomon Yan frowned, and said: "Let's use this opportunity to reward Uchiha and win them over, and they will settle down."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded, seeming to think it made sense.

Turning to sleep Xiaochun felt that Zhishui possessing other gods was a huge threat.

But seeing that both of them said that, she remained silent for a while.

Danzo felt anxious and hurriedly said:

"The Uchiha family tends to go to extremes, and they are extremely ambitious. Not only do they now have the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, but their external reputation has also improved."

"On the battlefield, Uchiha helped many families. Just imagine, if the current Uchiha rebels, who can guarantee that those families will not help Uchiha?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded, and said, "That's true, but it's Shisui who got the Kaleidoscope Sharingan. He probably won't help Uchiha's rebellion."

Both Xiaoharu and Mitomon Yan who turned to bed did not express their views, they seemed to be frowning in thought.

Danzo knocked on his crutches, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't forget, Uchiha's performance in this war."

"Their strength is stronger than we imagined. Even if Uchiha Shisui doesn't help both sides, the power of those forty-nine pairs of Sharingan alone cannot be ignored."

Forty-nine pairs, how do you know so accurately... The other three fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Danzo continued: "With the help of other families and Sharingan, Konoha will be in crisis again by then!"

Turning to bed Xiaochun pondered for a while, then shook his head and said:

"We've just gone through a war, so it's better not to cause extra problems. Now, I don't know how many countries and ninja villages are staring at us."

Danzo slowly relaxed, eyes half-closed again: "Leave this matter to my roots, and my roots will take care of all the things to eradicate Uchiha."

"If Uchiha's demise becomes a fact, then other families will see the situation clearly."

After finishing speaking, Danzo became quiet, and the old god was rubbing his crutches on the ground.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought for a while, then shook his head:

"At a time like this, we must not kill each other. There is nothing we can do about things like word of mouth. We can't suppress it with our hands."

Danzo wanted to continue to insist on destroying Uchiha, but looking at the expressions of the other three, he knew that this was already impossible.

Without the support of Sarutobi Hiruzen, even if he destroys Uchiha, he can only escape in the end.

At that time, Hokage will become a pipe dream that is always out of reach.

However, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's words moved Danzo's heart.

If Uchiha's reputation is too high, it will be very difficult to eradicate this family, and it should indeed be suppressed.

Although he has made a decision in his heart, this time, Danzo will cut it first and then play it, and will not tell anyone else.

"It's all for Konoha!" Danzo put the lid of the teacup in his hand on the cup hard.
