In the dark underground base, Danzo covered his eyes and gently tapped the armrest of the chair with his left hand with a gloomy expression. The clicking sound echoed rhythmically in the darkness.

The Gennin, who had brought back the news that Orochimaru and Tsunade had returned to the village, knelt down in front of Danzo, with his head bowed deeply, not daring to take a breath.

Danzo has been in a terrible mood lately!

Aburame Ryoma, as Danzo's most capable general, died inexplicably during the mission to capture Naoki's brat.

This completely frustrated Danzo's plan to obtain the experimental materials for wood escape and blame Kumo Gakure.

As for the possible consequences of a war between the two villages after successfully framing the blame?

snort! What does that have to do with Danzo? Isn't that something that Sarutobi Hiruzen needs to worry about?

Maybe we can take advantage of the outbreak of the war to accuse Hiruzen Sarutobi of being incompetent in provoking the war and remove him from the position of Hokage!

But all these thoughts came to nothing when Ryoma Aburame failed in her mission and died.

The angry Danzo went to the place where the battle took place to investigate, but he made an ecstatic discovery!

Wood escape!

The wood escape of Senju Hashirama, the god of the ninja world who pacified the ninja world and established Konoha; the wood escape that he racked his brains, spent manpower and material resources to research but could not get, unexpectedly appeared in front of him so suddenly!

Danzo knew that his chance had come!

After the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, another powerful force known in the ninja world was beckoning to him.

Danzo did not hesitate to seduce the leader of the Aburame clan, who was trying his best to squeeze into the top ranks of Konoha, and jointly proposed to Sarutobi Hiruzen to recall the rope tree.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not a religious man, so he pretended to hesitate for a while and finally nodded in agreement.

What is the opinion of the Senju Clan? hehe!

The worst case scenario is that Hiruzen Sarutobi will advance his plan to transfer the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki. That Uzumaki Kushina from the Kingdom of Uzumaki is already ten years old, right? It should be almost able to withstand the power of Kyuubi.

As for the issue of the previous jinchūriki dying if their tailed beasts were stripped off? hehe! Isn't that still the Hokage's responsibility? What does Shimura Danzo have to do with him?

Danzo was looking forward to Jiraiya's return to Konoha with the rope tree, and then waited and waited...

Finally, the news came that Hanzo had surrendered and that Orochimaru and Tsunade had returned victorious with their team.

Jiraiya, who was burdened with the expectations of Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, had no news after sending back the news that Konoha Ichiichi was staying in the Land of Rain to teach his disciples.

When the news came back to Konoha, Danzo became furious and smashed the root conference room to pieces.

Trash! What a bullshit ninja demigod! He can't even deal with a few juniors!

Now that's good! The name of the three ninjas has spread throughout the ninja world, and it will be even harder to attack the rope tree under their noses!

And that Hatake Sakumo!

How can he be so virtuous? He was actually given the Half Sleeve of Hokage by that bastard Sarutobi Hiruzen!

I'm really pissed off!

Danzo covered his right eye, which was swollen with excitement, and slowly sat on the chair, tapping the armrest with his left hand, slowly calming down the anger and unwillingness in his heart.

A figure appeared in the conference room with a whoosh, paying no attention to the messy environment, and knelt down respectfully in front of Danzo.

Danzo-sama, Naoki followed Uchiha Fugaku to the Uchiha Clan's residence, and stayed there for about half an hour! Uchiha Fugaku's home was shrouded in a barrier, and his subordinates were unable to detect what was going on inside!

After Naoki came out of the Uchiha Clan's camp, he took Uchiha Mikoto to the Senju Clan's land!

After listening to Gennin's report, Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly and thought carefully in his heart.

Well! The mission of monitoring the rope tree has been temporarily stopped. Mito Uzumaki can sense your presence, so you don't have to go to the Senju Clan.

Yes! Lord Danzo, do you have any other orders?

This year's classes at the Ninja School have ended. You can go to the archives of the Ninja School to collect information and see what good prospects there are.

The roots need fresh blood!

yes!

The roots ducked away.

Danzo stood up and glanced at the Gen nin who was kneeling on the ground tremblingly.

Take care of this place, I'm going to find Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Yes! Lord Danzo!

A sneer appeared on Shimura Danzo's face.

He actually took the Uchiha clan and took the initiative to approach the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki!

Humph! Kid, you are still too young!

Hokage's office building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was born five years before Konoha, is now a 42-year-old middle-aged smoker.

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen was smiling, holding his pipe in his mouth, and looking at the two proud disciples standing in front of him.

Tsunade, Orochimaru!

You two performed well on the battlefield this time, and you actually managed to become the Sannin of Konoha. What an incredible achievement!

As a teacher, at your age, I don't have as much glory as you!

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't ask Jiraiya why he didn't come back with him, which saved him some embarrassment.

The two Hokage advisors, Koharu and Mito Kabuto, who were sitting next to them, were also looking at Orochimaru and Tsunade with smiles on their faces.

Orochimaru had an evil smile on his face and nodded to the three senior officials of Konoha.

Thank you, Sarutobi-sensei!

Thank you for teaching us!

And the title of the Sannin of Konoha is nothing more than Hanzo's pity for the defeated!

Strictly speaking, Sanshouyu Hanzo was intimidated by the teacher's reputation, so he gave the three of us a way out!

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard Orochimaru's compliments, he couldn't help but feel relieved and laughed.

Tsunade gave Orochimaru a vague glance at Orochimaru who was full of lies, and turned his head slightly to block his curling of his lips.

Why is this Orochimaru becoming more and more shameless? Can't he tell lies with his eyes open and not even blush?

“I don’t know who I learned it from.”

Xiaochun turned to bed and looked at the two of them with a smile.

Tsunade, Orochimaru.

You two and Jiraiya made important contributions to Konoha's victory on the battlefield this time.

Men Yan and I discussed with Hiruzen and decided to reward you well.

If you have any requests, feel free to put them forward. As long as it's not too excessive, our advisors and Hiruzen will agree to it!

Orochimaru and Tsunade looked at each other and exchanged a look. Tsunade nodded clearly, took a step forward, and stated the plan that the two of them had already planned.

Teacher Sarutobi, through this war against Sunagakure, I discovered that there are some problems with the configuration of the ninja team.

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed an interested look on his face, took a puff of cigarette, and motioned for Tsunade to continue.

Tsunade nodded and continued:

Many injured ninjas on the battlefield did not receive timely assistance, and their originally minor injuries worsened due to improper treatment.

A considerable number of ninjas were forced to amputate their arms and legs due to the worsening of their injuries. From then on, they can no longer protect Konoha as ninjas.

There are even some ninjas who died in vain because they were not properly resettled!

I propose that I set up an institution specifically to train medical ninjas, and train some ninjas who are not very good at fighting to become medical ninjas serving Konoha, in order to reduce the losses caused by excessive injuries.

Tsunade seemed a little excited and spoke passionately.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was obscured by the rising smoke, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Mito Kadoyan pushed up his glasses and looked at each other with Koharu who was sleeping. The two looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Clearing his throat, Mitomon looked at Tsunade through the glasses.

Ahem! Tsunade! I think your suggestion makes sense.

Let's do this! List out the specific plan, and Consultant Xiaochun and I will study it carefully and give you a reply later!

Do you want any other rewards?

Tsunade shook her head and backed up to Orochimaru, nudging him lightly with her arm.

When Orochimaru saw that Tsunade had returned defeated, a trace of imperceptible ridicule flashed in his eyes.

Sarutobi-sensei!

I heard that after returning from the battlefield this time, Sakumo-sama was appointed as the captain of the ANBU, right?

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, this was not a secret. In order to promote Konoha White Fang's military exploits, his appointment was almost always semi-public.

That's right! The name of Konoha White Fang, like you three ninjas, has already been resounding throughout the ninja world.

So I decided to entrust him with an important task!

Orochimaru, you ask this, do you have any plans?

Orochimaru said sincerely:

Yes!

After this battle with Sanshouyu Hanzo, I found that I still have many shortcomings.

So I want to ask the teacher to let me join the ANBU and study with Sakumo-sama for a period of time. I hope the teacher can approve it!

Sarutobi Hiruzen was very satisfied with Orochimaru's attitude. Seeing that his disciple was open-minded and eager to learn, how could he disagree?

Okay! I agree to this!

His eyes swept over Tsunade and Orochimaru, and a kind smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.

Tsunade's reward still needs some time to discuss.

In addition to Orochimaru's request, I also allow you to read the Sealed Book once and choose a ninjutsu practice that suits you.

Men Yan, Xiaochun, do you have any objections?

The two advisors didn't care that they had to learn one more ninjutsu from the Book of Sealings, it was just that Hiruzen Sarutobi transferred it from his left hand to his right hand. Sooner or later, you have to learn, it's better to sell yourself a favor.

No! Their merits are enough to get these rewards!

I have no objection either!

The two nodded one after another.

Wait! I have an opinion!

Danzo Shimura suddenly pushed open the door and glanced at Tsunade and Orochimaru with his one eye with an indifferent light, then strode to sit down next to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Are you old fools confused?

Why only talk about their achievements and not the damage they caused to Konoha?

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with Danzo's sudden denial of his decision, but he took a puff of cigarette silently and did not make a sound to stop him.

Orochimaru's eyes flashed coldly, staring at Danzo's one eye.

Danzo snorted and looked at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, your disciples killed three elite ninjas from my roots, including the elite jounin of the Aburame clan.

This has caused huge losses to Konoha's combat power! How should this account be settled?

As soon as Danzo's words came out, the atmosphere in the Hokage's office suddenly became tense.
