Time travel at the same time: Is the golden finger actually me?

After reluctantly saying Yes, Naruto.

Danzo was a little relieved, but also a little headache.

Fortunately, Rock can probably make Konoha do well in the five great ninja villages, because he knows how to flip tables. Sometimes this move is enough. Sarutobi's I am the Hokage move suppressed Danzo for the rest of his life.

The troublesome thing is that his dream of becoming Hokage may have to be postponed a little, and the other party is not as accepting as he thought.

Danzo looked at Rock and remembered that afternoon. He really admired Rock and felt that he could become the backbone of Konoha in the future and it was only a matter of time before he became the Hokage.

But the matter of Rock becoming Hokage can be discussed after Danzo has been Hokage for ten years.

It's not my turn yet, why did you kick me out?

Danzo sighed, then waved, and a root ninja immediately appeared beside him. Danzo followed Rock's instructions and asked him to call the people from Sand Ninja Village first.

As for Uzumaki Naruto, he should wait to eat ramen alone after meeting the Suna Ninja Village.

Thinking that Rock had just said that he wanted to control the One-Tail and Nine-Tails, Danzo really didn't dare to let these two tailed beasts appear in front of Rock at the same time.

Even if this rhetoric is just a means for Rock to maintain his power.

But Danzo didn't want to bet, because he felt that Rock's flipping of the table made a lot of sense.

Proposing to launch a war was met with opposition for two reasons.

The first is that I don’t want to start a war, so I oppose it; the second is that I don’t want you to have the power to start a war, so I oppose it.

Danzo is currently in the first category. He does not want to start a war at this time, but Danzo feels that what Rock wants to confirm is the second point.

It doesn't matter whether he eats the bowl of ramen or not, but he must have the power to eat ramen, and the same goes for the power to wage war. Danzo had no choice but to say that this was Hokage's freedom.

Binding the power to eat ramen with the power to wage war is a bit too extreme.

Of course, the most important thing is that the button to destroy the world is indeed in Rock's hands...

Danzo also had similar buttons like this, and he thought of Shisui's other gods.

An ultimate illusion that can control others.

Then Danzo shook his head secretly, he wanted to use other gods on people from other villages.

If there is a meeting like the Five Shadows Conference in the future, it can be used.

It would be too wasteful to use it on one of your own, and it would be even more wasteful to use it on a ninja whose love is the village.

Thinking of this, Danzo looked at Tsunade with a hint of anger.

If Tsunade hadn't been holding him back, I'm afraid he would have been the Hokage by now, and Rock would have been a fierce general under him, so there wouldn't be so many things to consider.

There is no need to use trivial matters to stumbling upon the new Hokage. It would appear that Danzo has no plans at all.

Tsunade was truly born with great evil.

…

Marky and the Suna Ninja Village trio soon arrived at the Hokage conference room.

Ma Ji was a little uneasy. He knew some things. There had been a lot of turmoil in Konoha in recent days. It seemed that they were choosing a candidate for the Fifth Hokage. The reason why he was asked to come over now was probably because the Fifth Hokage had already confirmed it and it was estimated that the Hokage process would be held publicly in a few days. It's time for the inauguration ceremony.

He just wants to be a good talker.

So that he could clean up the incident in Suna Ninja Village this time.

As soon as the door opens.

Marki saw Rock sitting in the middle.

It was the ninja who forced Shukaku back into the jinchuriki's body, the ninja who killed Orochimaru.

The most unexpected episode happened.

Marky, sit down!

Rock waved to Marky.

sit?

Where to sit?

Markey fell into the same problem as Rock.

Just stand.

When the sand ninja came here, everyone was quiet, including Danzo Tsunade. With outsiders, it was no longer their time to speak.

Rock didn't speak, and Ma Ji didn't dare to come forward and talk nonsense. He had prepared a lot of manuscripts, but the moment he saw Rock, he swallowed them all.

He admitted that he was afraid of the disparity in power between people, even if he was the jounin of the village.

He was even more afraid of the power gap between villages, even though Sand Ninja Village was also one of the five major villages.

In fact, Maki glanced at Gaara behind him with his peripheral vision. He was afraid of the gap between monsters...

Maki didn't dare to speak, but Temari was full of courage at this time.

She stepped forward and explained the Suna Ninja's position: Rock, our village companions have discovered the body of Master Kazekage. In this operation, our Suna Ninja Village was completely manipulated by Orochimaru. I hope Konoha can see this. In terms of the friendship between the Country of Fire and the Country of Wind, forgive us, Suna, for being deceived.

Temari blinked quietly and looked at Rock.

but--

Sorry, I can't do it.

Rock's voice of rejection floated in the conference room.

The lies of the Allied ninjas are over, Temari. There is no doubt that the Suna ninja showed their hostility towards Konoha in this plan.

Yes! We know it! We are obviously...allied ninjas... Temari excitedly wanted to explain to Rock, but her voice became smaller and smaller.

Then, she nervously tightened her clothes, and under the gaze of everyone, she took a deep breath and spoke slowly: Well, even if we don't look at the friendship between the two countries... what about us? Rock! Look at the friendship between the two of us. For my sake...can you...

As long as Konoha can forgive Sand Ninja, no matter what you want, we will...

As soon as this statement came out, the silence in the conference room dropped a bit.

Rock paused for a moment, then interrupted the other party seriously: Temari, I'm glad you can ask me for help.

But where do you start talking about the friendship you mentioned? Rock asked rhetorically.

According to our investigation, the plan for the collapse of Konoha was planned long before the Suna Ninja came to Konoha.

Temari, to be honest, from the beginning, you actually didn't want my friendship as a Konoha ninja. You were even afraid that the two of us would be connected.

Temari wanted to retort, but found that she didn't know how to explain.

Because that was exactly what happened at that time.

Rock: I understand. You think that the Suna Ninja have strong soldiers and well-planned plans and will win the final victory, but we are enemies. Therefore, you don't need a friend of Konoha.

But now, you come here and say...Rock, for the sake of our friendship...

Is it because I'm not wearing a Hokage hat? Or is it that there aren't enough Jonin here? The Hokage building isn't luxurious enough? That makes you disrespect me so much...

...Don't even want to call me Hokage.

Rock's tone fell softly to the ground.

Even Danzo understands that feelings are feelings, positions are positions, and interests are interests. And at such an important diplomatic moment between Suna Ninja Village and Konoha, it is useless to play the emotional card.

Temari was stunned.

Hokage-sama!

Maki immediately explained: I'm sorry, Temari is only a genin now, and what she said cannot-

She is not an ordinary genin. At some point on Rock's desk, there was information from the ANBU: She is the daughter of Rasa, the daughter of the Kazekage.

That's right. Temari finally came to her senses and nodded: I am indeed Luo Sha's daughter, and I have some weight in Suna Ninja Village, so what I say counts.

Luo... Hokage-sama, as I just said, as long as Konoha can forgive Suna Ninja, no matter what you want, we will...

Then I want to be alone. Rock replied happily.

Marki immediately stepped forward: Lord Hokage, I am a jounin in the village. I am quite strong. I am willing to do...

I'm not talking about you.

Ma Ji was startled, then gritted his teeth: Temari, it is a good age for marriage. In order to keep the friendship between Konoha and Suna Ninja forever, it is suitable for your status.

Huh? Wait... Temari looked at Marky, then at Rock, and suddenly panicked.

Not her either.

ah? Could it be... Ma Ji's face turned sallow.

I want him, Gaara of Sand Falls, Ichibi of Sand Ninja Village. Rock pointed at the Calabash Baby of Sand Ninja Village.

No! This is absolutely not possible. Maki immediately retorted, Kankuro can give it to you, but Gaara can't.

Hokage-sama, Suna Ninja Village still needs one tail to protect the safety of the village.

Can the One-Tail really protect the Sand Ninja Village?

Rock asked rhetorically.

Markey was sweating profusely.

Hokage-sama, there must be a One-Tailed One to make the villagers of Suna Ninja Village feel that they are protected. He silently changed his words.

Yes, there must be one, so Konoha can also be the one to protect Suna Ninja Village. Rock said aggressively.

Marki's face suddenly turned pale.

Gaara, who was being discussed, finally couldn't help but speak at this moment: There is no need to deliberately raise the price, Rock.

It is impossible for Suna Ninja Village to hand over the Jinchūriki to Konoha. Even if you force me to stay, it will definitely trigger a war. It is better to let me return to Suna Ninja Village.

When I go back, I will become the Kazekage of Sand Ninja Village.

When he spoke, even Temari and Kankuro were startled.

Oh? It really helps if you take a nap. You can dream in broad daylight. Rock raised his eyebrows.

...Thank you, I had a very comfortable sleep this time. Gaara was no longer as irritable as before, but had a very gentle temper.

Shukaku has been completely honest recently, which has made Gaara's whole body feel much better.

He looked at Rock and continued to explain: With the full support of a Kazekage, we can sign a new alliance, which is definitely more valuable to you and Konoha.

Rock: Covenants are nonsense, empty promises are worthless, and loans to Fengying are even more undesirable.

I am the son of the Kazekage, a one-tailed Jinchuuriki. It is not difficult to become the Kazekage. Gaara explained hurriedly.

I also know a fox with a similar background. It's a pity that he can't even eat a bowl of hot ramen now. Rock glanced at Danzo, but the other party didn't call Naruto.

It's not empty talk. Ma Ji added: I have a certain status in the village, and I will support Gaara to rise to power.

Rock: But there is still Chiyo in Sand Ninja Village? Why should Gaara be the Kazekage instead of Chiyo?

Gaara was silent, and he turned to look at Danzo beside him.

Danzo suddenly felt bad.

There is also Danzo in Konoha, but the Hokage is not him, but you.

...

Danzo didn't say anything, he knew Gaara was going to say something about him.

That's because our elder Danzo has a strong spirit of dedication. After all, he has always been a man who is not keen on power and is willing to dedicate everything to the village. At the same time, he is also a man who is willing to be a green leaf in order to cultivate the next generation of Konoha. Rock explained .

...

Danzo said nothing because he felt that the person Rock was talking about was not him.

But he still quietly turned his head and said to the root ninja behind him: Write this down.

Hokage... assisted Danzo. He made an indelible contribution in the diplomacy between Konoha and Suna Ninja. Write the word assisted in small words...

...

The conference room was quietly quiet for a moment.

Danzo didn't know whether it was intentional or not, breaking the serious atmosphere created by Rock.

But it was almost done. Rock knew that it was unrealistic to fight against the sand ninja or to ask for the tailed beasts.

Rock coughed slightly and began to create a character for himself: Ahem... Although normally I don't tend to play the emotional card at this moment, but I do believe in your character and strength, Gaara.

No, it should be said to be the Godaime Kazekage.

I hope what you said is true, and I also hope that the friendship between Konoha and Sand Ninja Village will last forever in the hands of you and me in the future.

Gaara immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and a smile appeared on his serious face.

I'm also very happy to gain your recognition.

Things will be simple after that. The terms of the covenant will be re-drawn, and Tsunade will help check the details.

But when leaving, Suna Ninja Village left Temari behind in Konoha.

...

Rock was silent.

What is this? Rock pointed at Temari and asked the Hokage Assistant.

Temari's face suddenly darkened in front of him.

A hostage expressing sincerity is better than nothing, Danzo said. Suna Ninja Village might as well spend more resources to make up for the losses in the Chuunin Exam.

You are asking for too much. Where do we have so many herbs for making Bingliang Pills? Temari clenched her fists.

Danzo ignored her and looked at Rock: Do I need to plant the Seal of Tongue Bane? To prevent her from passing information to Suna Ninja in Konoha.

No, anyway, Suna Ninja Village already knows Konoha's information, and there are a lot of spies that the village cannot catch.

Speaking of curse seals, Rock stared at Temari for a while and suddenly had a brilliant idea.

Temari looked a little panicked: Wait? What are you going to do?

Rock: Prepare in advance. I will carve a mark on your lower abdomen in two days.

Temari: ???

It is the seal of the Four Symbols.

Rock had learned the Four Elephants Seal before but had never tried it. After that, he was going to take out the nine-tailed chakra of the False Jinchūriki of the Fire Temple.

He had always had a guess about Naruto's Nine-Tails chakra pattern and needed a test subject for comparison.

In order to better reproduce, Rock tried to find a ninja with the same wind attribute as Naruto, but the wind attribute is still relatively rare.

After all, it was mentioned in the original work when Naruto's nature of training changed that there were indeed not many wind attributes in Konoha.

The wind escape ninjas that Rock knew were basically named.

A famous wind escape ninja like Danzo Laoden can't store the Nine-tails chakra in his body to compare the Nine-tails chakra pattern. This Laoden already has Hashirama cells and Sharingan, and another Nine-tails chakra. Tail Chakra Mode...

Rock didn't know how crazy this guy was.

Temari is just right, in every aspect. I will discuss it with her in two days and ask her if she wants to dedicate herself to a great cause.

…

Until he went to bed at night, Rock was still thinking about the Nine-Tails Chakra Pattern and the Wooden Dunshen Thousand Hands. As he thought about it, he fell into a baby-like sleep.

That night, in his baby-like sleep, Rock felt his soul being infinitely lifted up again.

He came to that familiar place again.

This mysterious space is filled with gray fog.
