Chapter 515
At this moment, the invasion of Pain has just ended.
Although all the victims have been resurrected, Konoha is still in a mess; the huge pit and countless destroyed houses cannot be repaired in a short time.
And during this period, we must prevent other forces from coveting sneak attacks, so temporary tents are currently set up around the village and guards are deployed.
While resettling the villagers, we must be careful of enemy attacks.
At the same time.
In order to report the situation to the Fire Country and apply for financial subsidies to rebuild the village.
The current senior officials of Konoha, including the two Hokage advisors, the root leader Danzo, the captain of the Anbu, and Nara Shikaku, have all arrived at the Daimyo's mansion.
A discussion meeting was held with the current Daimyo of the Fire Country and a group of civil servants.
At the meeting, Danzo took the opportunity to make trouble.
Taking advantage of the fact that the fifth Hokage Tsunade's chakra was too exhausted in the war and is still in a coma.
Recommended himself as the new sixth Hokage to preside over the overall situation of the village.
Although there were objections from Shikaku and others during the period, and Kakashi was recommended as the Sixth Hokage, and the Daimyo even agreed at one point.
In the end, he was intercepted by the powerful Danzo.
He successfully bluffed the current Daimyo by a series of roaring questions, blaming the Third, Jiraiya, Minato, and Tsunade.
And he was appointed by the Daimyo and successfully succeeded to the Sixth Hokage.
Although the normal succession of Hokage requires two steps, namely: [Daimyo appointment] and [Vote of Confidence Meeting of Collective Jonin in the Village].
But due to the current situation of Konoha, the latter cannot be held for a while, and it is difficult to form a constraint.
Danzo has become the Sixth Hokage with real power.
Of course.
In terms of reputation, Danzo, the new Hokage who did nothing during the invasion of Pain, is not as good as Naruto, the hero who saved the whole village.
Most villagers trust Naruto more than Danzo, the new Hokage, which also makes Danzo dare not rashly attack Naruto.
After returning to the village.
Danzo immediately intercepted the letter from the Fourth Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village, learned about Sasuke's attack and capture of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and agreed to the new round of [Five Kage Talks] initiated by the Raikage.
At the same time.
He decisively issued a formal order to hunt down the traitor Sasuke as Konoha and Hokage.
And asked his subordinate Sai to closely monitor Naruto to prevent Naruto from threatening his hard-earned position again.
At this moment.
Danzo, who was hiding alone in the Hokage's tent, couldn't help but laugh heartily:
'Comfortable! '
'I feel more comfortable than ever before! '
'Hahaha——! '
'I finally sit on the throne of Hokage, a throne that has been delayed for nearly 50 years! '
'Hiruzen, just wait and see! '
'I will definitely do better than you, and I will definitely make Konoha great again! ’
Danzo leaned on a cane, his heart was surging, his eyes were bright, as if there was really a "will of fire" burning.
However, his excitement was soon interrupted.
A Root ninja sent new information.
"Danzo, this is the abnormal battlefield ruins that appeared in the northwest of the village."
"Preliminary judgment, it is very similar to the battlefield ruins in the village..."
Danzo took the scroll and the photo, frowned and scanned them.
Then he was immediately shocked.
He was not blind, just looking at the scale of the terrifying giant pit was enough to imagine the horror and power of that force!
It was indeed very similar to the giant pit blasted by the Super Shinra that destroyed Konoha Village.
Not to mention the huge deep canyons around.
'What's going on? '
'Is it possible that Pein of the Akatsuki organization is not dead? Who is still fighting fiercely here? Did Naruto deceive the whole village? '
'No...'
'That kid doesn't have such a deep mind. And how could Pein be safe and sound when he performed the ultimate forbidden technique to resurrect the dead? ’
‘Besides Pein, is there another enemy with the Samsara Eye? ’
‘Or was it caused by the tailed beasts of the Akatsuki organization? ’
‘It’s possible! The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was also captured by Akatsuki. They already have eight tailed beasts in their hands, and it is indeed possible to cause such a horrible trace! ’
Danzo had many guesses in his mind.
He had to admit that he was really scared!
The power of Pein that destroyed Konoha had already made Danzo extremely terrified.
After all, he still knew his own strength. Even if ten of himself performed the Four Symbols Seal together, they were far inferior to the Super Shinra Tensei.
And now, an unknown enemy or force that was equal to Pein or even more powerful suddenly appeared.
And it was only a few dozen kilometers away from the village.
This naturally made Danzo extremely terrified and unable to sleep or eat!
To put it bluntly.
If I were unlucky enough to encounter such an enemy, wouldn't my dream of becoming a Hokage be crushed in an instant?
Or, if another enemy like Pain invaded Konoha Village, could I stop him?
If I couldn't stop him,
would I let Naruto defeat the enemy and protect the village? Let Naruto be a hero again?
Then I would have to hand over the position of Hokage to Naruto...
No, I must take some defensive measures!
In a moment,
Danzo made a decision and quickly ordered:
"Let the scouts expand the alert range to a hundred kilometers outside the village, and report any abnormalities at any time!"
"Secondly, notify all the Anbu directly under the Fifth Hokage to report to me; an incompetent Hokage who is unconscious is no longer qualified to lead the Anbu."
"Finally, notify all ninja clans to transfer more than half of their manpower to speed up the construction of several more shelters underground outside the village!"
It's different now that he is the Hokage. Danzo has begun to cherish Konoha's human resources.
After all, before he was in power, all losses and responsibilities could be pushed to Tsunade.
Now that he is in power, if the village suffers major losses and casualties again, he will be the one to bear the responsibility.
Especially before he has passed the collective vote of confidence of the village's senior ninjas.
Naturally, he has to perform well and get more "votes".
Of course, it would be great to take the opportunity to seize more power and win over other Konoha ninja clans.
"Yes, sir!"
"In addition, notify Aburame Tone and Yamanaka Fuu, let them prepare immediately and follow me to attend the [Five Kage Talks]!"
Danzo ordered again that once he performed well or made contributions at the Five Kage Talks.
Then his position as the Sixth Hokage would be basically stable, and the subsequent vote of confidence of the Jounin would certainly pass. This is why Danzo was anxious to attend the Five Kage Talks as a Hokage.
"Danzo, isn't it too few to bring only two people? These two enemies or forces with great destructive power have not been identified yet. If they meet by accident or are attacked by the other party..."
The Root Ninja did not finish his words, but the meaning was already very clear.
Danzo frowned after hearing this, and he was indeed a little afraid.
Danzo knew that he was no match for a monster of Pein's level. Even if he was ready to use the power of the other five Kage to deal with the Akatsuki organization.
But before arriving at the Five Kage Talks location, there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents.
If they really met, it would be all over!
So, the fearful Danzo immediately added another order:
"Notify the Kakashi team and let them accompany me to the Five Kage Talks as temporary guards!"
Now who is the best fighter in Konoha?
Of course it is Naruto who just defeated Pein.
Originally, Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and Danzo did not intend to bring him with him, but only hoped to keep him under strict supervision in the village.
But now facing the unknown threat of Pain-level enemies, Danzo had to consider using Naruto's power.
Danzo also had a plan for this.
If he encountered a strong enemy of Pain's level again, at most he could directly use [Kotoamatsukami] to control Naruto to fight, or to cover his retreat!
If he didn't meet him, it would be safer to tie the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to his side.
And the remaining opportunities for him to use [Kotoamatsukami] can be used to control the other five shadows in the Five Shadows Talks!
This is simply the best opportunity given to him by God.
'This time, I, Danzo, will definitely become famous in the entire ninja world! Become the greatest Hokage! ’
