Chapter 98 Cutting Off the Ties Between Us with My Own Hands
"What's on your mind?"
"I don't."
After hearing Terumi Mei's answer, Genshi smiled: "Is it that boy from Mirai Uchiha?"
Terumi Mei's eyes widened: "Master Genshi, how do you know?"
Master Yuan said calmly: "That guy is indeed good-looking, but he is a completely dangerous person."
"You'd better stay away from him."
Hearing this, Terumi Mei fell silent.
Genshi was right, Uchiha was indeed a dangerous person in the future.
Such a person, no matter how in line with her aesthetics, must not fall into it.
But……
It’s really hard to find such a handsome guy!
Shaking away the complicated thoughts in his mind, Terumi Mei glanced at Genshi: "Master Genshi, you seem to be in a good mood."
Master Yuan smiled: "Of course, the peace talks went smoothly this time."
"As long as we act a little stronger, Konoha's Sandaime Hokage immediately made concessions and just asked for some war compensation."
"And...in order to be on good terms with Kirigakure, he even took the initiative to return the seven ninja swords to us."
"It's a pity that the three tails were sealed into his body by Uchiha Mirai. There is no hope of taking them away."
"We are so lucky to have such a Hokage in Konoha Village."
After hearing what Master Yuan said, Terumi Mei was a little surprised.
You must know that Kirigakure Village was not only the one who initiated the war, but also experienced a disastrous defeat in the war with Konoha.
They were already prepared for heavy bleeding when they came, but they didn't expect Sarutobi Hiruzen to be so generous.
"Hahahahaha... now we have lived up to everyone's expectations."
Master Yuan laughed heartily.
Terumi Mei was also very happy at first, but the figure of Uchiha Mirai suddenly flashed in his mind.
Thinking of what Uchiha had said to her in the future, Terumi Mei couldn't help but become silent again.
The Third Hokage is indeed weak, but the other party is already old.
Once the next Hokage comes to power, will Konoha still be what it is now?
In particular, Uchiha, the representative of Konoha's new generation of ninjas, still dreams of unifying the ninja world in the future.
Once the Konoha regime changes, they will become the party to take the initiative.
So what will the situation be like in the ninja world?
"Terrumi Mei, why are you distracted again?"
After hearing Genshi's words, Terumi Mei came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Genshi-sama, we must not take it lightly."
"The Kirigakure Village must continue to become stronger!"
Master Yuan glanced at Terumi Mei in surprise and said softly: "Teimi Mei, you have changed a lot these days."
"But don't worry, no matter how the ninja world changes, Kirigakure Village will definitely be one of the most powerful ninja villages."
Terumi Mei sighed softly.
Hopefully.

The delegation from Kirigakure Village left.
The specific details of the negotiations were not revealed, and many villagers did not even know that the delegation from Kirigakure Village had come to Konoha.
In recent days, the eyes of the Konoha villagers have been attracted by another incident.
"Have you heard that there have been a lot of rumors about Orochimaru-sama recently? It seems that Orochimaru-sama is involved in some terrible things."
"Keep your voice down...I heard that Lord Orochimaru seems to be conducting human experiments in secret."
"How is that possible? Lord Orochimaru is a disciple of the Third Generation. After the Third Generation abdicates, Lord Orochimaru will most likely become the Fourth Hokage."
"Who knows? Anyway, everyone is saying that Orochimaru secretly uses criminals and orphans for human experiments. It can't be groundless, right?"
"I absolutely don't believe this kind of thing. Without Orochimaru-sama, I would have died on the battlefield a long time ago. Someone must be slandering Orochimaru-sama!"
In the first few days, everyone scoffed at the so-called rumors.
But as time passed, the Konoha villagers began to have doubts in their hearts.
If it was false, how could it spread so widely in Konoha?
And...until now, neither the Sandaime nor Orochimaru himself has come forward to clarify.
Is there really a hidden secret in this?
Hokage Building.
Hokage's office.
Danzo Shimura opened the door and walked in on crutches.
"Hiruzen, what do you want from me?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice: "Danzo, did you send someone to spread the news about Orochimaru?"
Shimura Danzo said calmly: "So what?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen slammed the table: "Danzo, you act without my consent!"
"Do you still want what happened to Hatake Sakumo to happen again?"
Shimura Danzo snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "First of all - you acquiesced in what happened to Hatake Sakumo back then."
"It was you who held him up to the position of 'Hokage Half Sleeve' with your own hands, and then watched him fall into the abyss with your own eyes."
"Secondly - I'm just telling the truth about Orochimaru."
Looking at Shimura Danzo who spoke plausibly, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath: "Anyway, Orochimaru is my disciple and one of the candidates in my mind to be the next Hokage."
"Danzo, you have crossed a line this time."
Hearing this, Danzo Shimura said forcefully: "The relationship between Orochimaru and Mirai Uchiha has become increasingly close recently. You should also know that, right?"
"If you let him become Hokage, the Uchiha clan will definitely be able to turn things around. Then won't the teacher and our decades of efforts all be in vain?"
"Also... Orochimaru is no longer the civilian genius who had nothing back then. He is now the leader of the three famous ninjas in Konoha and has many followers."
"Now that he is in power, do we still have a say in Konoha?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly sat down in his seat.
What Shimura Danzo said makes sense. Orochimaru is now very prestigious and has his own power.
Once he becomes Hokage, with Orochimaru's personality, he will definitely not be willing to share power with these old guys.
In addition, Orochimaru is also entangled with the Uchiha Future guy.
The most important thing is-
He does not intend to abdicate now, but the ninjas below have been speculating when Orochimaru will be able to take over as the next Hokage...
If this continues, he will definitely be criticized for continuing to stay in the position of Hokage.
Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's uncertain expression, Shimura Danzo knocked on his cane: "Hiruzen, it was because of your weakness that Uchiha Mirai grew to this point."
"The same mistake, are you going to make it again?"
"Leave this to me, I will kill Orochimaru and get rid of the ninjas related to him."
"When the Root was first established, it was used to do these things."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly raised his head, and his aura burst out without any concealment.
It was like a lion suddenly awakening, and the strong sense of oppression made Shimura Danzo a little frightened.
"Danzo, you don't have to worry about Orochimaru's affairs."
"Since he is my disciple, let me sever the ties between us."
