Chapter 604: Konoha Wipes Out the Ninja Clan?

Shimura Danzo's reaction was beyond Hanzo's expectation.

He originally thought that the attitude he showed to the Root Ninja was enough to make Shimura Danzo give up.

But Shimura Danzo did not give up, but came to the Rain Country in person.

"Hanzo, Shimura Danzo wants to see you." The Rain Ninja Anbu reported.

Hanzo frowned, Shimura Danzo's high mobility was a bit abnormal.

He just left the Root Ninja alone for a few days, and Shimura Danzo came to the Rain Country in person. With Shimura Danzo's identity, this shouldn't be the case.

"Bring him here." Hanzo said.

Shimura Danzo is the Hokage assistant who can represent Konoha after all.

Even if he feels uncomfortable hearing the name Shimura Danzo now, he can't treat Shimura Danzo like an ordinary Konoha Jonin.

The Rain Ninja Anbu nodded, walked out of the office quickly, and soon brought Shimura Danzo to Hanzo's office.

After bringing the person here, the Rain Ninja Anbu quietly left the office and closed the door.

Hanzo looked at Shimura Danzo expressionlessly.

Shimura Danzo's face was a little gloomy, and the slender eye that was not covered by the bandage stared at Hanzo.

Hanzo was unhappy, and Shimura Danzo was unhappy too.

The siege and killing of Sosuke to obtain the Samsara Eye was his action hidden from Sarutobi Hiruzen. The longer he was outside, the more likely he would be discovered by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Shimura Danzo originally wanted to come to the Rain Country when the plan was only about to besiege, but Hanzo's attitude forced him to come early.

"I wonder why Assistant Danzo came to the Rain Ninja Village?" Hanzo asked in a calm voice.

After all, Shimura Danzo was the assistant of the Hokage, and Hanzo couldn't really fight him.

Unless Hanzo was ready for the war with Konoha.

"Of course I came to help you, Hanzo." Shimura Danzo's face eased a lot and replied.

Shimura Danzo felt that he was indeed helping Hanzo. If he were Hanzo, the Ninja Clan would never have survived to be established, and would have been wiped out when traveling to the Rain Country.

What travel and teaching? Shimura Danzo only saw that Sosuke had more and more followers and his reputation was growing.

"Oh?" Hanzo looked at Shimura Danzo with some confusion.

Come to help him, to help him die early.

"The Rain Village is in danger." Shimura Danzo sighed.

"Why do you say that?" Hanzo asked.

He wanted to see what tricks Shimura Danzo was up to.

"Sosuke is ambitious and uses various means to enhance the reputation of the Ninja Clan. Now many ninjas mention the Rain Country and think of you, the demigod, and the Rain Village, but the ninja master Sosuke and the Ninja Clan." Shimura Danzo continued.

"If this continues, the Ninja Clan will gradually erode the living space of the Rain Village, and eventually replace the Rain Village, making the Rain Village a dust in history."

Shimura Danzo was not talking nonsense. Ninjas do not engage in production, so where do their money come from?

There are two major parts, one is the military expenses provided by the daimyo, and the other is the commissions issued by the client.

If the Ninja Clan absorbs the commissions of the Rain Village, then the decline of the Rain Village is inevitable.

"Thank you for your warning, Danzo. I am ready to compete with the Ninja Clan. I believe that our Rain Village ninjas will not lose to the Ninja Clan's ninjas." Hanzo said as if I had been prepared for it.

Can the Rain Village really compete with the Ninja Clan? Hanzo is not very confident.

Sosuke is younger than him, and under Sosuke there is also Nagato, the first genius in the ninja world.

Nagato alone can ensure that the Ninja Clan will not be too bad in the next forty years.

Shimura Danzo narrowed his narrow eyes slightly. This Hanzo is not very smart.

However, Shimura Danzo was mentally prepared. If it was that simple, he wouldn't have to come here in person.

"Hanzo, you are an upright person, but Sosuke may not necessarily compete with you fairly. As far as I know, the Shinobi Clan has close contacts with Iwagakure." Shimura Danzo was ready to give Hanzo one last chance.

If Hanzo still didn't agree, he would have to make things clear directly.

"Really? As far as I know, Sosuke is not a bad person." Hanzo retorted.

Sosuke is not only not bad, but even when the Rain Ninja and the Shinobi Clan have a feud, he can make a large number of Rain Ninja admire him.

Hearing this, Shimura Danzo knew that what he was most worried about had happened.

The Shinobi Clan's strategy to repair the relationship worked, and the Rain Ninja and the Shinobi Clan are not as opposed to each other as before.

This made Shimura Danzo more certain of the correctness and necessity of his plan.

If the Rain Ninja and the Shinobi Clan unite, they may really create a force that can threaten the Great Ninja Village.

"That's just the appearance you see." Shimura Danzo refuted Hanzo's rebuttal.

"The crisis of Rain Village is not only in the competition with the Ninja Clan, but also in the Rain Country itself."

"Hanzo, you don't want the Rain Country to repeat the scene of the last Ninja World War, do you?" Shimura Danzo said sinisterly.

Whoosh!

Crash! !

Hanzo's chakra burst out, and the powerful and terrifying momentum quickly climbed to the extreme that Hanzo could reach, setting off a gust of air and blowing the papers on Hanzo's desk away.

"Shimura Danzo, what do you mean." Hanzo's eyes became extremely sharp, as if he wanted to penetrate Shimura Danzo's body.

The Second Ninja World War was Hanzo's greatest pain in his life. He wanted to seek more benefits for the Rain Country and wanted to lead the Rain Country to break the order of the five major countries.

But he overestimated the strength of the Rain Village and underestimated the strength of those big ninja villages.

Eventually, the Rain Country was devastated and the entire country was caught in the flames of war. Instead of developing, it became even more backward.

Before the defeat in the Second Ninja World War, the entire Rain Village was full of Hanzo's fans, most of whom were fanatical fans.

After the defeat, many rebels emerged in the Rain Village, which shows the impact of the Second Ninja World War on the Rain Country and the Rain Village.

Shimura Danzo's words really touched Hanzo's bottom line.

"Hehe." Shimura Danzo sneered in his heart, and did not care about Hanzo's terrifying momentum that seemed to want to kill people.

His current power and status are also earned by his own efforts. Who is not a ninja who walked out of the battlefield with a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood? How could this scare him?

"What the Ninja Clan did has touched Konoha's bottom line. It is a threat that Konoha must clear. In the process of clearing, it is inevitable that some unavoidable damage will be caused." Shimura Danzo said in a deep voice, as if the Ninja Clan had done something unforgivable.

The Ninja Clan touched the bottom line of his assistant as the Hokage, and rounded it off to the bottom line of Konoha.

Hanzo frowned, Shimura Danzo's words were too heavy, and the tone was as if Konoha would send a ninja army to destroy the Ninja Clan in a few days.

This was a bit beyond Hanzo's expectations. What did the Ninja Clan do that made Konoha want to destroy the Ninja Clan so much?

Because of Shimura Danzo's words and identity, Hanzo subconsciously regarded Shimura Danzo's attitude as Konoha's attitude.

After all, Shimura Danzo, a high-ranking Konoha official, could not act in the name of Konoha for some private matters.

"What did the Ninja Clan do?" Hanzo couldn't help asking.

He was really curious about what the Ninja Clan did to Konoha.

With Sosuke's personality and wisdom, would he offend Konoha for no reason?

"This involves the secrets of our Konoha. I can only tell you that it is related to Iwagakure." Shimura Danzo answered like a riddle man.

There is no way he can't be a riddle man. He can't say it's for Sosuke's Ninja Clan inheritance and Nagato's Samsara Eye.

And if we bring up Iwagakure Village, it will become a confrontation between two big ninja villages, which is difficult for Hanzo to verify.

"Iwagakure..." Hanzo showed a thoughtful expression.

Before, Iwagakure stood up as a middleman to negotiate peace between the Ninja Clan and the Rain Village. Hanzo felt that Iwagakure was plotting something. Later, Iwagakure has been with the Ninja Clan for so long, so it's normal for the two sides to have something.

"Is it related to the war in the Grass Country?" Hanzo remembered the battle between Konoha and Iwagakure in the Grass Country some time ago.

Both sides won one game, but in the end, Konoha was better and drove Iwagakure out of the Rain Country.

If it is to participate in the war between the big countries, then Konoha's attitude makes sense. After all, this is one of the most taboo things for the five big ninja villages.

"Since it is a conflict between the Ninja Clan and Konoha, what does it have to do with my Rain Village?" Hanzo thought for a while and asked.

Shimura Danzo said so much, but he didn't mention anything about his Rain Village.

The Ninja Clan and Rain Village are in a cooperative relationship after all. Even if the Ninja Clan is really involved in the game between the great powers, the Rain Village will at most not help, rather than help Konoha to step on the Ninja Clan.

Shimura Danzo sighed as if he was a peace-loving person:

"I know you are a peace-loving ninja, Hanzo, and the Rain Country is also a peace-loving country. Letting such a country fall into war is not what I want to see."

"So I argued with reason and won a plan that is more beneficial to both sides, only killing the evil leader.

Except for Sosuke and Nagato, the others can be regarded as ninjas bewitched by Sosuke, and Konoha will let them go."

"The condition is that the Rain Village must help and help Konoha kill Sosuke."

In fact, Shimura Danzo originally wanted the Root Ninja to disguise as the Ninja Clan Ninja to attack the Rain Ninja, and then disguise as the Rain Ninja to attack the Ninja Clan Ninja, provoke conflicts between the two sides, and then lure Hanzo to encircle and kill Sosuke.

This can be said to be Shimura Danzo's usual means of provoking conflicts.

However, after thinking carefully, Shimura Danzo found that this plan was not applicable to the current Shinobi Clan and Rain Village.

Rain Village and Shinobi Clan are ninja forces in the same country and have signed a friendly cooperation treaty. If the person who died was not an important person, both sides would definitely remain calm and settle accounts first.

But killing important people is not okay, because there are too few powerful ninjas in Shinobi Clan, and the Rain Country is too small to disguise and frame.

In addition, Shimura Danzo came to the door as soon as Shinobi Clan and Rain Village had problems, and Hanzo would have doubts unless he was stupid.

If Shimura Danzo had enough time, this plan would also work. If Shimura Danzo had one or two years, he would definitely be able to arrange it perfectly.

But "Uchiha Madara" gave him too little time to act.

So Shimura Danzo used the plan of using power to suppress people, borrowing the deterrent power of Konoha to threaten Hanzo with war, and if he didn't want the Rain Country to become a battlefield, he would kill Sosuke with him.

This plan is also a perfect plan as long as it is not discovered by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Kill Sosuke, and the Rain Country can avoid war..." Hanzo understood what Shimura Danzo meant.

However, Hanzo did not naively think that this was a benefit that Shimura Danzo helped them to fight for. He just thought that Konoha did not want to consume too much power.

Sosuke represents the present of the Shinobi clan, and Nagato is the future of the Shinobi clan. If the two of them died, the Shinobi clan would not be much different from being directly destroyed.

It's not that Hanzo looked down on Kakuzu. Kakuzu really can't compare with Sosuke, whether in strength or other aspects.

"Hanzo, you won't forget the shame that Soyousuke gave you. After Soyousuke dies, everyone will only remember the living demigod Hanzo and not the dead ninja master Soyousuke." Danzo Shimura reminded lightly. road.

Now Hanzo still has the reputation of being a demigod. When talking about Hanzo, he always thinks of Soyousuke and Fire Dragon Ranbu, who is known as the strongest fire escaper.

Hanzo said nothing.

Did Soyousuke bring him shame? There should be, thanks to Sosuke Usuke, all the ninjas in the ninja world know that Hanzo was defeated by the reverse attribute.

Will Hanzo agree to Danzo Shimura to surround and kill Soyousuke because of this? Yes, but not much.

It is impossible not to have resentment towards Soyousuke when he, a dignified half-god and half-zodiac, has fallen into this state.

But there was still some anger left in Hanzo's heart that prevented him from blaming everything on Soyousuke.

Did he lose to Sosuke because Sosuke used a dirty trick? No, it was because he was not as strong as Soyousuke.

Even the reason for fighting Soyousuke was due to a misunderstanding caused by his poor judgment.

This makes Hanzo so embarrassed to blame everything on Soyousuke, and so embarrassed to have desperate murderous intentions towards Soyousuke.

"Without Soyousuke, not only would Konoha not take action against the Land of Rain, but the Land of Rain would also be able to avoid civil war. This would be a rare opportunity for peace." Danzo Shimura continued to intimidate and induce.

Danzo Shimura didn't even know what Hanzo was hesitating about. Thinking from his perspective, he would definitely agree.

It is true that he is plotting to inherit the Samsara Eye and the Ninja Sect, but this matter is indeed beneficial to the Rain Ninja Village.

"This is a serious matter. I need to think about it for some more time and discuss it with other senior officials." Hanzo finally answered. He neither agreed nor refused.

Hanzo's request was very reasonable, and Shimura Danzo did not refute it. However, in order to prevent Hanzo from being indecisive and unable to make a decision, Shimura Danzo said meaningfully:

"Although my plan was passed, there are still objections from high-level officials. If it takes a long time, I can't guarantee what will happen."

A threat, a thinly veiled threat.

Hanzo looked deeply at Danzo Shimura and said nothing.

The failure of the Second Ninja War made him know how powerful the five great ninja villages were.

Shimura Danzo is very arrogant, but he does have the capital to be arrogant. Among the five powerful ninja villages, Konoha is also the strongest among them.

After Danzo Shimura left, Hanzo pretended to hold a high-level meeting of the rain ninja.

However, he did not talk about Sosuke's matter at the meeting, but made other decisions.

When it comes to making the most important decisions, Hanzo always makes them alone.

At night, Hanzo disguised himself and left the Rain Hidden Village.
