Inside the Hokage building, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath of his pipe, thinking deeply.

It has been three full days since I received the piece of information from an unknown source.

But these three days, he felt longer than three months.

Depressed, extremely suffering.

Although he had known for a long time, Shimura Danzō had been thinking of ways to provide financial support for his "root".

Unexpectedly, Danzo would be so crazy that he would smuggle out the village's strategic reserve for replacement every year in the village.

Even more unexpectedly, Danzo would be so brave to put the smuggling route under his nose and use those young ninjas who were born in a big family but have never been taken seriously to work for him secretly, forcing his side to only behave when he takes action. .

Although he received the "vague" information, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't act rashly because of the lack of evidence.

When he leaned on Anbu to find some clues.

It's too late.

Corpse, corpse, corpse.

All "hands and feet" are handled cleanly by Danzo.

more than this.

Of these dead, many died like an accident or suicide.

To tell you plainly that it was done by the "root", but to make you unable to act without evidence.

There was no room left for him.

Then, when the news that was quickly blocked was spread by interested people, more and more family members of the deceased came to him for an explanation.

But from the perspective of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he has no way or evidence to tell these people the truth.

If it weren't for Danzo's side, there would also be a great loss, which would be a thousand damage to the enemy and eight hundred.

I'm afraid Sarutobi Hiruzen will doubt whether this is Danzo's game for him.

Who will be the reporter?

Is it to force the old man to start a war with Danzo in advance?

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes darkened.

At present, the situation among major countries is turbulent, border frictions continue one after another, and they are in a state where war may break out at any time.

In this case, Danzo's incident is simply not at the right time.

Even if the smuggling evidence is eventually his Master, for the sake of the stability of the village, he will most likely deal with the aftermath by means of compromise or transaction.

It's a bitter fruit.

Ugh.

I don't know what this event will turn into in the end.

Hiruzen sighed long, feeling heavier again.

"Old man, you can't go on like this! If you exhaust yourself now, no one can take your seat."

The slightly frivolous words appeared, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned his head back, but saw a man in red with long white hair who appeared at the table for some time, with his mouth cocked, "Teacher, long time no see."

"You are finally willing to come back."

Hiruzen raised his eyebrows with a relieved smile on his face, "Jiraiya, how is this mission going?"

"It's still the same, this is the recent trend of major countries." Jiraiya also raised the corners of his mouth and threw a scroll in front of Hiruzen, looking serious: "Except for the inaccessibility of Mist Shinobi, the trends of other villages are here. I’m not very optimistic, the old man, especially Cloud Shinobi and Rock Shinobi, have been eager to move recently..."

"It's been so easy for a few years, these guys are really uneasy..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, and then handed the reported intelligence scroll to Jiraiya's hands: "Look, now that I'm back, please help me with this matter. I can't find the right person anymore."

Jiraiya took the scroll suspiciously, and when he saw the content on it, his face became serious.

"Have you checked the source of the scroll? If it is a third party, if you use a ninja dog to track it, maybe you can trace it."

"Tried it, it's useless."

Hiruzen shook his head: "The other party is very careful and knows what measures we will take, so there is no clue that can be traced on it.

I have tried to use the Inuzuka clan to trace the source of the scroll, but do you know where it is? "

Hiruzen paused, staring at Jiraiya, and said the answer that he didn't even believe: "Danzo's house."

"Could it..." Jiraiya frowned. "Could it be someone from Danzo's house..."

"There is no such possibility." Hiruzen shook his head and directly denied this suspicion: "No one knows him better than I do. It is said that it is his home, but Danzo himself rarely returns there.

And that guy has always been public and private, and he would never tell other people in that family about such secret things. For the sake of root, he tried all means, and it is definitely impossible for him to take the initiative to expose. "

"So, this is a mockery? Hahaha! Really an interesting guy."

Jiraiya laughed, then stood up in Hiruzen's rather helpless eyes: "In this case, just leave it to me. You can target the old man you and Danzo at the same time. To be honest, for this guy, I have some expectations. I saw him."

......

"Haha, eat slowly, it's safe, no one will grab you."

On the other side, the instigator of everything was looking at the boy Byakugan who was eating ramen in front of him, and laughed softly: "Hyuga Teru, don't make yourself so embarrassed."

"You, who are you?"

Hyuga Hui ate the noodles and muttered, "Why did you show up there? What is the purpose of saving me?"

"Don't you already know who I am?"

Shunyi squeezed his head with his right hand, placed his left hand on the table, and tapped the table lightly: "As for why I saved you, I think you will be useful to me in the future."

"it works?"

Hyuga Teru stopped eating the noodles and slowly stirred the noodle bowl with his chopsticks, and then set it aside as if he had no appetite.

He raised his head, revealing a hideous face full of black bloodshot eyes.

He looked directly at the Shun Yi in front of him, and Byakugan subconsciously activated, and the blood vessels in his temples agitated, the hideous face became more terrifying, and said coldly: "Is this all related to you?"

"Ah."

Shun Yi sneered and said lightly: "Although the poison on your body is temporarily suppressed, it doesn't mean it's okay. If you plan to do it on me now, I'm afraid you can't even use Gentle Fist, and you will experience the pain again. Bar?"

Hyuga Teru let out a cold snort, and retracted Byakugan: "What the hell do you want to do? Although I promised you before, I need an explanation."

"It's really troublesome. Generally, shouldn't it be the time to give in and hug you..."

Shun shook his head and said something that made Hyuga Hui's meaning unclear: "You can understand that I'm probably experiencing the same thing as you now, but it's just some fools who are used by others."

"..."

Hyuga Hui narrowed his eyes and seemed to be thinking whether what Shun Yi said was true or not.

"Why should I believe you?"

"You don't need to believe me."

He smiled softly, tapped his fingers on the tabletop for a moment, looked at Hyuga Hui for a moment, and said meaningfully: "You only need to know that I want to deal with Shimura Danzō. In this regard, our goals are the same. , That's enough, isn't it?"
