Chapter 527

The Five Shadows Conference starts as usual.

The shadows from the five hidden villages all rushed to the Iron Kingdom with their own guards.

On the Konoha side, a group of people headed by the Sixth Generation Acting Hokage Danzo also set out.

There are eight people in total, including Danzo and two guards, as well as the seventh team of Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Yamato.

Team 7 opened the way in front, while Danzo and the other three walked behind.

"Damn it, why do we have to be Danzo's bodyguards?" Sakura whispered indignantly.

"Danzo-sama is now the Hokage, and we cannot refuse his order."

Yamato was also a little unhappy, but out of fear of Danzo and respect for Hokage, he had to obey orders.

In fact, as long as the Hokage himself is strong enough, his power in the village is theoretically infinite.

Even if Danzo does not have enough prestige, at least for this reasonable task, Team 7 is not qualified to refuse.

"Perhaps you want to keep Naruto by your side to observe as much as possible?"

Kakashi responded in the same low voice.

"Naruto is a hero who saved the entire village. How could he do this?"

Sakura complained angrily and pulled Naruto beside her.

And Naruto, who was beaten up by the cloud ninja Karui, even though his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, he was still thinking about Sasuke and had no energy to think about Danzo's problem.

"Watch your words, Danzo is already the acting Hokage, don't give him any clues!"

"Besides, it's also a good thing for us to attend the Five Kage Conference together. At least we have a chance to meet the Raikage, and maybe we can convince him to revoke the execution order against Sasuke."

Kakashi admonished, obviously being more sensible.

There is no way, we are not qualified to confront Danzo now. You can't really attack your own Hokage? Then everyone in my family might become Konoha rebels.

Things like identity are really useful sometimes.

So they could only hold their noses and accept this escort mission, and try their best to take this opportunity to meet the Raikage.

"See the Raikage? Well, I must convince him to forgive Sasuke!"

Naruto gained some energy, clenched his fists and said firmly.

…

only.

As soon as the Konoha group walked out of the border of the Land of Fire, they were attacked by a group of more than twenty unknown ninjas.

Danzo did not take action and held down the two root guards.

Only Naruto and other members of Team 7 were allowed to fight.

These ninjas are of average strength, and most of them are genin. Among them, there are five or six chunin, and there is only one jounin in particular.

Naturally, he is no match for Class 7.

The anxious Naruto single-handedly eliminated more than half of the enemies, knocked them all unconscious, and was captured alive by Yamato using wood escape.

Danzo watched Naruto silently the whole time, weighing it in his mind.

‘This growth rate is truly amazing! ’

‘Have you really surpassed Jiraiya? ’

'The Yondaime, Nagato, and now Naruto, this bastard Jiraiya is really good at education! ’

'snort! It seems that the strategy must be changed. ’

‘Since it’s not easy to target, then try your best to use it for me! ’

Danzo admired while secretly planning.

"Reporting to the Hokage-sama, all the enemies have been defeated!" Kakashi came to Danzo and reported businesslikely.

"What is the identity of the enemy?"

"Not sure."

"It should be the remnants of the Anbu from the Prajna Clan of the Forest Kingdom, who were assassinated by us before." Danzo's bodyguard Yamazuka Hui reported.

"I see, then there is no need to stay. Feng, you can deal with these prisoners."

"clear."

Shanfeng drew out his short sword and executed all the captured attackers one by one.

Naruto and the others in Class 7 couldn't bear to look at him.

"Hey! They have no resistance anymore, why don't they all be killed?!!"

Naruto, who couldn't bear to kill, stood up to stop it and shouted to Danzo.

Danzo narrowed his eyes and looked at Naruto, scolding him coldly:

"Dare to attack Hokage, it is a serious crime! How can we deter other attackers without executing them? And today is outdoors. If they attack in the village next time, can you guarantee that they will not accidentally kill other Konoha villagers? Who will be responsible then? ? Are you coming?"

"I……"

In terms of high-sounding justice, Danzo was even more talkative than Naruto, and Naruto was unable to refute him when he directly criticized him.

"Besides, your target for Team 7 is Uchiha Sasuke, right?"

Danzo's words shocked Naruto and others.

Does the other party already know their plan? Is there a mole among us?

Kakashi and Yamato subconsciously looked at Sai.

Zuo Jing was shocked, don't look at me!

Although he is still a member of the root, he is no longer Danzo's lackey, and he has never betrayed his family again!

"Hmph! Everyone knows that you still have feelings for Sasuke."

"Lord Hokage, Sasuke is my most important companion! He must have been taken advantage of. Please take back your order to execute Sasuke!"

Although Naruto didn't have a good impression of Danzo, he still bowed solemnly to Danzo for Sasuke's sake.

"The order to hunt down and execute Uchiha Sasuke was issued by the Raikage, and Konoha only restarted the wanted order. And what crime did Sasuke commit? You must all know it. Until now, do you still want to protect him? ?”

"It's not a cover-up! I-I just don't want to lose my friend. I can't sit back and watch my friend be killed! Let alone fall into the whirlpool of revenge!"

"In other words, if someone kills Sasuke, will you avenge Sasuke?"

"I..."

"What if it was Konoha ninjas who killed Uchiha Sasuke? For example, Kakashi, for example, Jia, if they did it, would you retaliate?"

Danzo's words were as sharp as ever, and he hit Naruto's soft spot.

If Sasuke died at the hands of ninjas from other villages, there would be a suitable reason for revenge, after all, it was done by the enemy village.

But if he was really killed by his own Konoha ninjas, would Naruto have the qualifications and determination to avenge his own people?

"No, no! Teacher Kakashi and the others would not kill Sasuke, right?..."

Naruto hurriedly looked at Kakashi and Yamato beside him.

But Kakashi and the others rarely took the initiative to look away and did not deny it.

They have not given up on Sasuke, all for Naruto's sake; if it was really because of Sasuke that Konoha and the Hidden Cloud Village broke out in a war, killing countless people.

Kakashi and others will definitely choose to kill Sasuke to stop all this!

This is the awareness that a normal Konoha ninja should have.

In the final analysis, what Sasuke did was more serious than being a traitor in the eyes of other people in Konoha.

Now in Konoha, except for Naruto, almost no one is attached to Sasuke anymore.

Even Sakura, who likes Sasuke, struggled repeatedly to decide to give up Sasuke during this period.

"Teacher Kakashi, don't do this! Sasuke, he, he can still be saved, he..."

Naruto grabbed Kakashi and begged again.

And at this moment,

Danzo changed the subject and asked quietly: "Uzumaki Naruto, how far are you willing to go for Uchiha Sasuke?"

"For Sasuke, I am willing to do anything!"

"Even if it means sacrificing myself?"

"Yes!"

Danzo raised the corner of his mouth and continued:

"Then let's do this."

"As long as you complete the escort mission well, ensure the smoothness of this trip, and ensure my safety. I can promise you a special pardon for Sasuke!"

"Uh? Really?"

Naruto was overjoyed and immediately excited, as if he saw hope.
