Chapter 7 Taking the blame and MLM
The majestic Shadow Rock.

The endless dense forest wraps the village, and the three weather-beaten heads, majesty and kindness coexist, make people daunting. They are guarding Konoha and inheriting the "will of fire".

This is the Hidden Leaf Village, located in the center of the Fire Country.

It was clear after the snow, and under the protection of the village, the common people walked to the streets early to feel the sunshine, and the quiet leaves once again burst into life.

In the northwest corner, in the Hokage Building facing Shadow Rock, the atmosphere is extremely dull.

In the spacious and solemn conference room, an old man wearing a Hokage Yushen robe and a fire pocket on his head was smoking a cigarette, silently listening to the reports of his subordinates, puffing out clouds from time to time, his yellow nails looked like Old smoking gun.

The old man's face is serious, his expression is resolute, and he has a sense of kindness of the neighbor's grandfather. He is the seeder of the "Will of Fire" and the ruling third generation of Hokage - Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

On the opposite side of the long table, an old man of the same age was looking at Hokage without squinting, with an uncertain expression on his face.

He has a stern face, a high nose bridge and squinting eyes, half of his face is hidden in the shadows, through the dim light in the room, he can faintly see that his right half of his body is wrapped in dense bandages, and two cross-shaped scars are burned on his jaw. The vicious and ruthless appearance is in stark contrast to the kind-hearted Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Konoha's two major features - pyramid schemes, and taking the blame.

cough.
The atmosphere was awkward, someone had to speak first, so Sarutobi, who was in the main seat, coughed twice, said calmly.

"Danzo, I've tried my best."

"Live to see people, die to see corpses."

Danzang interrupted his old friend's perfunctory words neatly, on the surface he was calm, but his fists under the table had already turned white.

Do your best!I still don't understand you?

Bad old man!When you tell me to take the blame, you greet me with a smile, and when it's your turn to save someone, just grumble!
Looking at the three generations smoking dry cigarettes and meditating silently, Danzo cursed inwardly, feeling a little annoyed.

Xiu'er was entrusted to him by Yan Junlin before his death, and only the third generation knew about their relationship besides himself!

Yes, Danzo accepted a disciple a long time ago, who is the best heir of his old friend Uchiha Kagami-Uchiha Yan.

Yan is extremely talented, opened his eyes at the age of ten, and has a heart for Konoha. He is highly regarded by Danzo and cultivated him as his successor.

It's a pity that Danzo was assassinated during a mission. If it weren't for Yan and his wife who gave their lives to protect each other, he would have paid more than just his right eye and right arm.

And Hideo Uchiha is the orphan entrusted to Danzo by the Yan couple. Although he has not had contact with him due to political enemies and identities these years, he has been observing secretly all the time.

Whether it's supplies or ninjutsu, even Hideo Uchiha's ability to enter the Konoha Guard is Danzo's method.

The war is approaching, so what kind of humanitarian relief fund is there, and what simple and well-paid tasks are there for a powerless war orphan to choose?
His original intention was to train Xiu'er, so that the other party could feel the pain of war in advance.

Unexpectedly, even the simplest logistics task, Xiu'er can have an accident!
Da da--

The atmosphere was dull, and Danzo raised his fingertips and tapped on the corner of the table, putting pressure on Sandai with a frosty face.

He was very anxious, but this matter involved a game of power between the two. Unless he made concessions, it would be difficult for the third generation who was in a strong position to compromise. This old friend was as old as himself.

"Danzo, be sensible, it's not worth it."

After a long time, until the shredded tobacco was burned out, San Dai sighed and said.

As Hokage, he has to think from the perspective of the village. Uchiha Hideo is just a ninja. Counting the return time, he has been missing for seven days. The hope of survival is slim. He spends a lot of money to find a corpse. He has nothing to do but comfort his own selfishness. He uses.

The family name is unknown, and even the reason for the rescue cannot be found.

"Look at this."

After finishing speaking in a cold voice, Danzo took out a scroll from his cuff with his left hand with exposed veins, and threw it forward.

Taking it smoothly, the third generation put down the cigarette pouch, and after confirming that there was nothing else in it, he looked at it carefully, and gradually frowned.

The undercover agent of Danzo did not find the assassination target and returned to the village. He was stationed in Yanyin's stronghold and found out that a group of Yanyin Anbu had gathered on the border of the Land of Rain.

"A lot of sentient ninjas and hunting dogs?"

After reading word by word to the end, three generations of wrinkles condensed into a ball, and asked in an unbelievable tone.

"You mean, Xiujun completed the assassination mission, and Yan Yin is chasing him?"

"That's right, when the Uchiha clan opens their eyes, it will be recorded in the secret book of the seal. After death, the patriarch will get the information. In the team that was completely wiped out, only Xiu'er didn't open his eyes. In other words, only he can survive and complete the task."

Danzo's voice was cold, but when he mentioned Hideo Uchiha, his voice was inexplicably mixed with a bit of relief.

I underestimated Xiu'er, it was a miracle to be able to complete the mission under such harsh circumstances!The crying kid back then has become a ninja who is in charge of his own side, and we can properly improve our relationship in the future.

Of course, the premise of all this is to convince three generations.

Thinking of this, Danzo suppressed his emotions, and stated the conditions of the test with a blank face.

"About Xiujun's completion of the task alone, I have informed the whole village. Now that the public opinion is in favor of rescue, Uchiha is also willing to send people to cooperate. For the task reward, Fuyue and I will each contribute one-third, and the rest will be left to the village. pay."

"The main force will be the ninja on your side. This is the biggest concession I can make, monkey, time is running out."

The proposal is very tempting. As the main force, most of the rewards, credits, and prestige of the mission will belong to the three generations.

Silently, Sandai stroked his chin and made up his mind.

Based on his understanding of his old friend, the price Danzo paid was at most half of his psychological bottom line, but it has reached this point, and his goal has been achieved.

This time, I will kill you twice less.

Thinking of this, Sandai put down his cigarette pouch, his expression gradually became serious, and he said in a low voice.

"No need, the village will bear all the compensation. I will ask Minato to be the main force and leave in an hour!"

"Monkey, you?"

"Konoha will not give up any of its contributing partners."

Looking at Danzo with a surprised face, Midai smiled heartily, lit the dry tobacco again, and watched the rare gaffe of his old friend with great interest.

Danzo's ears turned red from embarrassment after being stared at by an old friend he didn't want to see.

Just about to explode, but thinking of the other party's concession just now, he forcibly endured it, and looked away from the window stiffly.

The balance of power is erotic.

The third generation will not know the news that Danzo can get?He could have approved the task in advance, but he didn't, he had to give it to Danzo when he couldn't take it anymore, and asked for it. It would not only kill the other party's spirit, but also sell personal favors, and also give Konoha public opinion an explanation, killing three arrows with one arrow carving!
In the Land of Rain, somewhere hidden in a cave.

unusual!Xiao Nan hasn't been arrogant for two days!

Ever since killing Iwanin, Xiaonan has been so well-behaved!No matter what excessive demands she puts forward, she will do so silently. If this continues, Uchiha Hideo is very afraid that her mind will be twisted and blackened halfway.

After struggling for a moment, Hideo Uchiha sat down next to Xiaonan, took out a few detonating charms bought along the way, and dangled them in front of her eyes, which seemed like a human trafficker coaxing a child with candy.

"Here, your favorite detonator."

"."

Turning his head sideways as if dodging, Xiao Nan pouted, still showing the sullen Sanwu look.

Fortunately, the body is honest. Although she didn't speak, she quietly took the detonating amulet with her little hand and put it in the newly purchased ninja bag.

"Talk about?"

Seeing Xiaonan's reaction, Uchiha Hideo slowed down and asked softly.

"What's there to talk about, you're a ninja and I'm an orphan"

"I'm an orphan too."

"No you are not."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Nan pursed her lips and lowered her head, and the cave fell into a weird silence again.

"What happened to Yan Yin? I thought you would understand that it's life and death, I have no choice."

"I understand, but, his child! Xiujun, you can kill him without hesitation, what about me? If it were me, you would kill him."

The words became louder and louder, but in the middle of the final questioning, Xiao Nan half-opened her mouth and fell silent.

Do you still need to ask?Definitely will, the same fate has always been self-deception, Xiujun is a ninja, his life is threatened, he will kill himself without hesitation, he is just his tool.

"If it were you, I would never give up, just like you are willing to help me."

"You lied to me and I'm just your tool man."

"."

Frowning and almost losing his composure, Hideo Uchiha carefully observed Xiaonan's expression, and he was relieved when he found that he was not the "tool man" he thought.

"Ninjas are the ones who protect their partners. You are my best friend, and I will protect you."

"Liar."

"Believe me."

Xiaonan's cheeks were slightly flushed, Uchiha Shu seized the opportunity, leaned close to her body, stroked her back with his left hand, gently softened her blue hair with his right hand, and looked at her with an extremely serious expression.

Touch the head to kill——

"You're too close! Go away."

"No, if you don't believe me, I'll stick to you forever!"

"Go away! I believe you can't do it? It's itchy!"

The roots of his ears were hot, Xiao Nan opened his thin fingers and waved them aimlessly, his eyes were filled with the white and tender collarbone that was close at hand, and there was a faint warmth rising from the tip of his nose, and he agreed loudly with his head short-circuited.

"That's good. Okay, let's eat something. I think you like grilled dried fish, so I bought a few skewers along the way."

"how much is it?"

"Twelve taels."

"Ten taels!!! You! Are you an idiot?"

The bonfire is rising, and the warmth dispels the severe cold outside the cave, and the small cave has a little warmth again.
