Chapter 607 The Promising Future of Konoha

[Name: Shimura Danzo]

[Chakra: 146000]

[Skills: Wind Chakra Nature Change (Mastery: 6100/15000), Wind Style Vacuum Wave (Mastery: 2900/15000)... Wood Style (Proficiency: 1200/3000)]

[Potential: SS- (Basic Talent + Six Paths Bloodline)]

Looking at the identified data, Mu Yue showed a thoughtful look.

Shimura Danzo's panel has been improved in almost all aspects.

Chakra, skills, and potential have all been improved. Needless to say, this increase of tens of thousands of chakras is not a normal improvement in practice.

At the same time, Shimura Danzo is also one of the few ninjas identified by Mu Yue whose potential value has changed.

The sudden surge in chakra, the appearance of Wood Style in the skills, and the increased potential made Mu Yue instantly think of Hashirama cells.

Shimura Danzo's panel improvement perfectly matches the effect of Hashirama cells.

The increase in chakra is due to the existence of the Sage Body, and Wood Release is also a necessary ability for Hashirama cells.

"At this stage, Danzo should not have the ability to transplant Hashirama cells, and this degree of enhancement is not like the ordinary Hashirama cell transplant." Mu Yue closed the panel and used Flying Thunder God to return to his home in the main city.

Before, he deliberately asked the shadow clone to recover White Zetsu because he was worried that White Zetsu's body would be obtained by Shimura Danzo, so that Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru could master the technology of Hashirama cells in advance.

Unexpectedly, Shimura Danzo inexplicably transplanted Hashirama cells during the period when he left Konoha.

In the current ninja world, there are only two ways for Shimura Danzo to transplant Hashirama cells.

One is to cooperate with Orochimaru, and the two of them have been working hard to experiment with Hashirama cells.

The second is Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

In the original work, Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo at this time did not study Hashirama cells deeply enough, and the transplant operation was almost equivalent to killing. Among all the experimental subjects, only Yamato, the survivor, survived.

Due to the intervention of Mu Yue, a time traveler, the plot has changed a lot, so Mu Yue can't be 100% sure that the research progress of Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru on Hashirama cells is the same as in the original.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Mu Yue still ruled out one, thinking that Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu were the ones who were causing trouble.

Even if Orochimaru overcame all kinds of difficulties and made a big breakthrough in the research of Hashirama cells, with Shimura Danzo's cautious character, he would not use it on himself at the first time.

Moreover, Shimura Danzo's improvement was too great. It took only a short time for the transplant to have this effect, unlike an ordinary transplant of Hashirama cells.

If one of the only two options is removed, then the remaining one is undoubtedly the truth.

"Is it you, Uchiha Madara, Black Zetsu." Mu Yue tapped the desk with her fingers and said silently in her heart.

Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu are the ones who have done the most in-depth research on Hashirama cells in the current ninja world. If it is their work, then all the problems can be explained.

Even Mu Yue can easily think of the motives of Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

If Shimura Danzo kills Sosuke, then there will be no need to think of ways to get rid of Sosuke in the future, and it will be easier to fool Nagato.

If Shimura Danzo fails and is killed by Sosuke, the result will be a shock to Konoha, and the ninja village that has ideas about Konoha will take advantage of the opportunity to enter.

If Shimura Danzo and Sosuke die together, it will be a double blessing for Uchiha Madara and others.

"Maybe there is also an idea to drag me down."

Uchiha Madara and others did not see through Mu Yue's vest, and Shimura Danzo was Mu Yue's boss in secret.

When Mu Yue thought about it, he found that Shimura Danzo was really a useful chess piece for Uchiha Madara and others, and he could be useful whether he was dead or alive.

"Let's see what Danzo is up to." Mu Yue planned to wait and see the situation.

Mu Yue was not afraid of the conspiracy against him, because he now had many means and was not afraid of being targeted.

The more Uchiha Madara did things in secret, the more it proved Uchiha Madara's weakness.

If Uchiha Madara could still fight, he should have confronted him directly. After all, Uchiha Madara was not suitable to be a sly guy.

Mu Yue was worried about those disciples. Obito and his team were currently in a stage where they were not as good as the best but better than the worst. They could not beat the strong, but they could beat ordinary jonin.

This strength was not enough to survive the conspiracy of Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu.

…

"Wood Release: Tree World Birth!"

In a remote and uninhabited place outside Konoha, Shimura Danzo quickly formed a seal and condensed a large amount of chakra into wood release chakra.

More than a dozen saplings broke through at a high speed and grew rapidly, turning into large trees with lush branches and leaves enough to shade the sun.

"It's not that easy, is it?" Shimura Danzo showed a dissatisfied expression.

This was obviously a failure. The Tree World Birth performed by Senju Hashirama could instantly create a forest with thousands of large trees.

Let alone thousands, he didn't even have twenty trees.

However, Shimura Danzo was not discouraged. Even Hashirama Senju was not born as the God of Ninja. He became strong after training and finally became the strongest.

He had just acquired Wood Release not long ago, so a little failure was nothing.

Shimura Danzo did not continue to practice, but took out the Wood Release Secret Scroll left by Hashirama Senju and began to read it.

This was one of the reasons why he returned to Konoha. Konoha had a lot of Wood Release information. During the month of preparation, he could use this information to cultivate strong strength.

Although it was only one month, Danzo Shimura was not a beginner who had just come into contact with ninjutsu. One month was enough for him to master a lot of wood escape.

"Wood Release·Wood Clone!"

"Wood Release·Wood Spindle Wall!"

"Wood Release: The Technique of Silent Killing and Binding"

After using the Tree Realm to bring birth to a child failed, Shimura Danzo began to practice simple wood escape.

When a few hours passed, Shimura Danzo smiled as he looked at the traces of damage caused by the wooden escape on the ground.

It had been a long time since he had this feeling of becoming stronger through cultivation. On the one hand, his work had left him with less time to practice, and on the other hand, his strength had reached a bottleneck.

After training, Shimura Danzo began to clean up the traces of his own training.

Because he was worried about being discovered by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he didn't even dare to practice in Konoha. Naturally, he would not leave any traces of his practice.

Then Danzo Shimura quietly returned to the base of Konoha, and then went to the Hokage Building.

He hasn't shown much appearance to Sarutobi Hiruzen for a while, so he needs to brush up on his presence.

Crunch.

Shimura Danzo pushed open the wooden door of the Hokage's office and walked directly into the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked up and saw that it was Shimura Danzo, so he looked at Shimura Danzo quietly.

What Danzo Shimura says next will determine the importance of knocking on the door.

"Hiruzen, I think it is necessary to strengthen the strength of the Roots and Anbu. The battle with Iwagakure fully exposed the lack of our intelligence capabilities." Danzo Shimura put a document on Hiruzen Sarutobi's desk and said.

This was a proposal he had written a long time ago, but Shimura Danzo felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen would probably not pass it, so he did not show it to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now it can be regarded as waste utilization.

After all, Shimura Danzo couldn't just come to chat with Sarutobi Hiruzen empty-handed.

In that case, Sarutobi Hiruzen will only find Shimura Danzo strange, and then it will be easier to discover the problem.

"How many times have I told you to knock on the door before entering the office? Why can't you, the Hokage's assistant, set a good example?" Hiruzen Sarutobi knocked on the table in dissatisfaction and said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew what Shimura Danzo was thinking as soon as he opened his mouth.

Strengthening the power of the roots and dark parts is not because he is worried that only strengthening the power of the roots will be directly rejected by him.

Danzo Shimura's expression became unhappy, but he didn't speak.

He has obtained the key to becoming the strongest and does not care about Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the documents on the office and began to look through them.

After watching for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said:

"It would be a waste of too many resources, and your roots don't need such a large establishment."

In fact, the most important reason is that Sarutobi Hiruzen does not want to strengthen the Anbu's power at all.

Because strengthening the power of ANBU will create a problem, that is, the Hokage's power and influence will increase.

The Anbu is a department that only takes orders from the Hokage. When the Anbu becomes stronger, it will feed back to the Hokage.

Although it is beneficial for Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage, to strengthen the ANBU, Sarutobi Hiruzen already has enough voice in Konoha and does not need to strengthen the ANBU to strengthen his power.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen was worried that the strength of the Anbu would lead to an imbalance of power at the top, making the future Hokage assistants and advisors useless.

“Our intelligence war was indeed lost to Iwagakure. This was not a matter of the number of personnel, but the technical level was suppressed.

Could it be that if we give you one more team, can you guarantee that we will produce the same results within two years? asked Hiruzen Sarutobi.

If Shimura Danzo can really study the disguise method of Iwagakure spies, the root expansion will also expand.

After all, the method of the Iwagakure spy is extremely difficult to guard against in the current ninja world and can play a huge role in the war.

"But we have too many opponents. Even from this perspective, we should strengthen our intelligence capabilities." Danzo Shimura did not give up.

If he had been convinced by Sarutobi Hiruzen all at once, it wouldn't have been him.

"Intelligence ninjas are not equal to root and ANBU ninjas." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and continued.

The two argued for a while, and it ended with Shimura Danzo leaving the Hokage's office with a dark face and no words.

"This Danzo, let him pay for the maintenance of the office door next time." Looking at Danzo Shimura closing the door vigorously, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a good mood recently, so he didn't care too much about Shimura Danzo.

The future of Konoha is really bright now.

Among the younger generation, there are young strong men like Mu Yue and Minato. They are young but can carry the banner, and are even better than the Sannin of the same age.

Looking further down, there are talented teenagers such as Kakashi, Obito, and Metkai. At first glance, they are super geniuses who can take over the class of Mugetsu and Minato.

Looking at it from above, the three ninjas are all in their fighting years, and they all have the ability to become Hokage directly. Except for Tsunade who has an accident, they are all good at fighting.

If you look up a little further, there are still people in Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has a head full of black hair without a trace of silver, and he is at the peak of his strength.

His classmate and friend Mito Monohan's condition is not as good as his, but it's not much different.

As for Shimura Danzo, as a former friend and rival, his strength is naturally not bad. He is a strong man who specializes in wind escape.

To lower the threshold of strength, Konoha also has capable elite ninjas such as Teacher Chen and the former Ino Shikacho.

If they win the war and develop for ten years, Sarutobi Hiruzen feels that Konoha can return to its peak.

Although there may not necessarily be an absolute strong man like Senju Hashirama, the overall strength of Konoha will be much higher than other great ninja villages.

…

After leaving the Hokage's office, Shimura Danzo's originally ugly expression instantly became indifferent, even showing a hint of disdain.

"Hiruzen, so what if you are Hokage now, I have mastered the Wood Release that you dream of but can't get." Danzo Shimura thought to himself.

His performance in the Hokage's office just now was just a disguise to confuse Sarutobi Hiruzen's sight.

Let Sarutobi Hiruzen mistakenly think that he is still racking his brains to develop root power.

After possessing the Wood Release, Shimura Danzo felt a transcendent feeling in his heart.

He has mastered the blood inheritance limit of the God of Ninja, and is no longer on the same level as ninjas like Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"When I completely master the Wood Release, the fourth Hokage can only be me!" Shimura Danzo felt endless confidence in his heart.

He no longer wanted to support Orochimaru to become Hokage.

Compared with him, Orochimaru is not worthy of being Hokage.

When Danzo Shimura threw his life and blood for Konoha, Orochimaru didn't know where he was.

Thinking of his contribution to Konoha over the years, Shimura Danzo felt that Konoha simply owed him a Hokage!

That is to say, there was no time to think too much after the Senjubi hiatus. Under normal circumstances, he should be the third Hokage.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Shimura Danzo did not return to the root base, but went out to continue training.

Although he felt in his heart that he was the one everyone expected, Danzo Shimura knew how much pressure he would face if he wanted to become Hokage.

If he wants to become Hokage, he can only use Wood Release to make a fuss, and then use his powerful strength to suppress all voices.

Although he is strong now, he is not strong enough to suppress all voices.

At night, Shimura Danzo returned to the Root base and said to a Root ninja:

"Call Mu Yue over, I want to see him."

Danzo Shimura only had three purposes for returning to Konoha.

One is to master Konoha's secret technique of wood escape, which can enhance his strength, and the other is to fool Sarutobi Hiruzen to prevent his actions from being exposed.

The last third place is because of Mu Yue.

"Madara Uchiha" hid everything, which made Danzo Shimura feel very insecure. He always felt that "Madara Uchiha" would burn bridges by crossing rivers, and not only would he not give him the Ninja sect inheritance, but would also kill him.

Therefore, Danzo Shimura wants Mu Yue, who has been transferred to the bright side, to be his trump card.

This will not only make his safety more secure, but if the power of "Uchiha Madara" is not as strong as imagined, he can also fight for the ownership of the Samsara Eye.

Those were the eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths. How could Danzo Shimura willingly give them to others?

Moreover, for Danzo Shimura, those were not only the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, but also a piece of the puzzle for him to become Hokage!
