Konoha’s Thief Hand

The Fifth Hokage Inauguration Ceremony is getting closer, and Konoha Village is naturally full of lively and festive, which completely dilutes the sad atmosphere after the Nine Tails chaos.

But in this atmosphere, Danzo felt very upset. After all, if the previous plan was successful, it would be him who announced his inauguration now.

But as he once said, he is a person who can afford to lose, and the situation at the moment only makes him feel unhappy. What really puzzles him is the recent changes in the roots.

Of course, due to the existence of the Seal of the Bane of the Tongue and after being forced to retreat, Xia Shu came to ask him what to do next, so he didn't worry that his subordinates would betray him.

What he didn't expect was that the dialogue on that day would cause the situation today.

Because of Sarutobi Hiruzen's pressure, he retired and kept his roots, which is already the greatest advantage he can achieve.

The replacement of the leader of the roots means that he cannot remotely control the roots. This is a tacit understanding between him and Sarutobi Hiruzen without words.

So when Matsuzaki Natsuki came to ask him, he just confessed that he should maintain the independence of the roots, except that he followed the roots' past behavior.

Danzo never thought that after decentralization, Matsuzaki Natsuki would make such a change to the roots, and even scattered the tentacles of the roots into the Ninja Realm, not only in Darenin Village, but even some small countries have arrangements, showing a very conspiracy. Broad attitude.

It's just the elite line that the hands of the roots take, like a sharp knife, but if they are scattered all over the Ninja World, their effect will be significantly reduced.

"Is this the intention of Xia Shu?" In the tea room, Danzo put down the scroll in his hand and performed the tea ceremony alone with a lot of charm, speculating about Xia Shu's intention. "This can give Sarutobi Hiruzen an illusion. Make him no longer stare at the roots."

Because he can no longer intervene in root affairs, and most of his hands have been dispatched, the report he got did not involve the specific tasks of going out ninja, so it is impossible to know that Xia Shu's plan is not just superficial, but real. Touch the various forces in the Ninja World.

"It seems I need to ask Xia Shu to come over and talk." Danzo nodded with satisfaction while tasting the fragrant tea. "The tea art has improved a bit. Only these hobbies can pass the time in boring days."

Whispering to himself, he remembered Sarutobi Hiruzen's arrival a few days ago. Of course, the other party didn't come to talk about the past. Although the content was probably like this, it was definitely a warning.

"Forget it, let's give the roots to Xia Shu for the time being. Even if he can't do too much with his ability, he can at least retain the power of the roots for the future." Danzo poured his tea and got up to the window. Looking out, "The warm sun in winter is really good weather."

At the same time, at the main entrance of Konoha Village, the Third Generation Star Shadow led the four stars into Konoha Village.

The men he leads are all men. Except for the firefly who specifically requested to follow, the other three are Akastar, Nighthawk, and Dead Burial. They are all Jōnin who have cultivated the stars to the level of a beast in the village of Star Ninja.

It can be said that he has brought half of the elite of Xingren Village on this trip. Of course, this is still incomparable with other Danin villages. For example, the team that has passed by them proudly at this moment has a distinctive skin color that is as white as milk and black as the bottom of a pot. The question is the Cloud Shinobi ninja from Thunder Country, and the number of people coming from the other party is more than twice as many as theirs.

"Hmph! These guys came with unruly purposes." Chi Xing sneered, with a thin face but a gloomy and indifferent expression.

"Pay attention to words and deeds!" Third Generation Star Shadow frowned when he heard the words, looked around, and said in a low voice: "It's not in the village now, this is Konoha Village in the Land of Fire!"

"Sorry, I will pay attention, Master Xingying." Chi Xing's mouth was pressed tightly, and his head lowered.

No one can see the chill and unwillingness in his eyes at this moment.

Among the Cloud Shinobi team that just passed by, there was still a sloppy, dark-skinned young man with slightly curly hair. He seemed to feel something. He glanced at the Star Shinobi team, and paused especially on Akahoshi's body.

"What's the matter, Darui?" A Cloud Shinobi ninja found the young man's condition and asked while looking at it.

"Nothing." Darui shook his head and continued to walk forward.

There will always be guys with a similar temperament in the Ninja Village, and they can't recognize reality until they hit their heads and bloodshed. This is really not a rare thing in the Ninja world.

"It turned out to be Shinobi." The Cloud Shinobi ninja saw the forehead protector pattern of the Third Generation star and the group, showing a dazed expression, and approached Darui again, whispering mysteriously: "You also know the village. Haven't given up on plotting the "star" of Star Ninja Village?"

"Oh? "Star"?" Darui's lazy expression was slightly puzzled.

"Don't you know?" The Cloud Shinobi ninja quickly covered his mouth and stared, "I haven't told you anything!"

"Yeah, yes, you didn't tell me anything." Darui's curiosity was as lazy as his temperament, and when he encountered a little setback, he immediately dissipated, but it made the Cloud Shinobi ninja bewildered. .

Under the guidance of Konoha Shinobi, everyone came to the state guesthouse, which was renovated to welcome guests from all over the world.

As soon as I walked into the State Guest House, I saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen dressed in regular clothes was leading the high-levels of Konoha Village, chatting with ninjas from Iwagakure. The atmosphere was good, but this atmosphere was instantly reduced with the arrival of Cloud Shinobi. When it reaches freezing point, even a murderous aura grows.

In the third Ninja War, the most severely damaged, naturally, was Sand Shinobi who ignited the war against Konoha first.

In the pre-war prologue, Third Kazekage mysteriously disappeared. For various reasons, Sand Shinobi passed on contradictions and provoked war with Konoha. However, the absence of the Supreme Leader also made Sand Shinobi's battle messy and became the only war in the Ninja World. The forces that left the market early.

Cloud Shinobi Village is the one that ranks behind Sand Shinobi in terms of damage. It is not how much Cloud Shinobi ninjas lost in the war, but just the death of Third Raikage alone made Cloud Shinobi Village's combat power extremely lost. What's more, the shadow of a village represents not only a Kage-level combat power, but also a village’s prestige and other more complex and far-reaching influences.

Because of this incident, when meeting the Rock Shinobi ninja who killed Third Raikage, the enmity and anger instantly turned into a ignited flame, exuding a biting chill in the heat!

"Ahem! Everyone." In this tense atmosphere, a young man walked out beside Sarutobi Hiruzen. "Although the visitor is a guest, please also consider the host's rules, otherwise, you will have to Sorry to everyone in advance."
