Kurosaki Ichigo in Konoha

Half a month ago, a big event happened in the Kawa Country, which is attached to the Country of Wind. Shado died.

In this chaotic ninja world, death is actually a very common thing, but when the identity of the deceased is Shado, a high-ranking member of the Wind Country, one of the five major countries, it is a very important matter.

Especially after the Kingdom of Wind announced the results of its investigation and pointed out that the murderer of Shado was a Konoha ninja, his death directly made the entire ninja world nervous.

Konoha, Naruto Office.

"I want to know what's going on. Why did our Konoha ninjas go to Kawanoguni and participate in the assassination of Shado?"

Facing a room full of dozens of advisory board members, Senju Tobirama threw a large pile of documents on his desk with an unhappy expression. Then he raised his hand and rubbed his forehead. The heavy workload during this period had already overwhelmed him. He was extremely busy, and now that something like this happened again, he really couldn't help but get angry.

There was silence in the office, and none of the consultants spoke.

After looking around at the people around him, Senju Tobirama sighed and pointed to his favorite disciple Shimura Danzo in the corner and said, "Danzo, you are currently the person in charge of the ANBU. Please tell me what is going on."

Shimura Danzo has always kept a low profile since he joined the advisory group as an ANBU representative. This time, when he was standing in the corner and his name was called by Senju Tobirama, he was obviously stunned, but he immediately replied, "Hokage-sama, this matter Our ANBU is already investigating."

"I'm asking about the results, not what your ANBU are doing." Senju Tobirama interrupted Danzo Shimura before he could finish speaking.

A layer of fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on Shimura Danzo's forehead. Although Senju Tobirama has not made a move for a long time and appears more often as a civilian Hokage, he is still one of the strongest ninjas in the entire ninja world, but A slight emphasis on his tone put tremendous pressure on Danzo Shimura.

"Hokage-sama," at this time another proud disciple of Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Hiruzen, stood up. He joined the advisory group as a representative of the Hokage Guards and the Ninja School. He was also responsible for managing the intelligence collection class directly under the Hokage. Part of the intelligence work, "Danzo has just become the ANBU representative not long ago. It is understandable that he made some mistakes. Our intelligence team has already received some news from Kawanoguni."

"Shut up Sarutobi, I don't need you to take care of my affairs." However, before Sarutobi Hiruzen could finish speaking, Shimura Danzo interrupted him rudely. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen had good intentions, he always looked at him. Danzo, an old enemy and rival, seemed to be insulting himself, so he couldn't help but yelled loudly.

"Danzo you!" Sarutobi Hiruzen was startled when his friend scolded him like this. He swallowed back what he was about to say. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

Senju Tobirama looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and then at Shimura Danzo. He knew the complicated relationship between the two and had no good way to deal with their relationship. However, Senju Tobirama had no intention of looking at the relationship between his disciples at this moment. Because of his grievances, he emphasized his tone and said, "Duanzo, what are you arguing about? Now I want to know what happened in Kawanoguni. If you don't have reliable information, just shut up."

Shimura Danzo's face turned pale, but he did not dare to disobey Senju Tobirama's words, so he could only nod his head. After glaring at Sarutobi Hiruzen, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Senju Tobirama.

"Now tell me what you discovered, Hiruzen." Seeing Shimura Danzo's submission, Senju Tobirama turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and asked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly, and then replied respectfully, "Hokage-sama, according to the information from the Kawakuni, on the day Shado died, there were two attacks in Shirane, the capital of the Kawakuni. One was the attack on the supply warehouse in the north of the city, and the other was the attack on the Shado Hotel, and what the Wind Country said was that our ninjas from Konoha appeared in the attack on the warehouse in the north of the city."

"That means that Shado's death actually has nothing to do with us in Konoha." A blond man in the advisory group asked with a little joy on his face. Looking at the expressions of the people around him, he also had similar expressions. After all, this is a clear explanation. No one is willing to start a war if a war can be avoided.

"No," Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, "After the warehouse was attacked, several Jonin were sent to the Shado Hotel to support them, and then the hotel was immediately attacked, indicating that the two attacks were the same. The gang acted premeditatedly, and it is difficult for us to clarify that the two incidents are not related."

At this time, Uchiha Kagami, who had been silent, stood up and asked, "Why do the people from the Kingdom of Wind insist that we from Konoha are involved in this matter? Even if traces of our Konoha secrets are found at the scene, it can't explain anything, right?" After all, many of our Konoha secret techniques have been spread to the ninja world."

"Yes, why do you insist that it was us Konoha ninjas who did it?"

"I think the Kingdom of Wind wants to stir up trouble."

Many people agreed with Uchiha Mirror's words.

"But" Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Senju Tobirama in embarrassment and hesitated to speak.

Senju Tobirama was angry at Hiruzen Sarutobi's performance and glared at him, "Why are you hesitating? If Hiruzen has something to say, speak up."

After receiving Senju Tobirama's approval, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath and said loudly, "In the warehouse in the north of the city, no less than dozens of people saw the attacker using our Konoha's secret technique, the Shadow Clone Technique."

哗

Dozens of people in the office instantly became confused, whispering and looking at Senju Tobirama from time to time.

The Shadow Clone Technique has not become as popular as it was in later generations. Senju Tobirama, who clearly understands the value of the Shadow Clone Technique, only teaches it to a few people in Konoha Village, and these few people have no Not being his favorite disciple, it was not until this moment that everyone believed that the Kingdom of Wind's statement that the attacker was a Konoha ninja was not unfounded.

Senju Tobirama's expression changed. Before he could speak, Uchiha Kagami took the lead and asked, "Is this news confirmed? Although the Shadow Clone Technique is a secret technique of Konoha, its performance is easy to imitate, and witnesses also It is very likely that they are people from the Kingdom of Wind. Is what they say reliable? Could it be that the people from the Kingdom of Wind colluded with them to assassinate Shahu and then put the blame on us? After all, Shahu and his brother Shamen have a grudge. It’s a well-known thing.”

Uchiha Mirror's series of questions silenced everyone who was muttering, and they all looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, even Shimura Danzo was no exception.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, "The credibility should be very high. The leader of the ninjas who chased the attackers in the north warehouse at that time was named Iwata Aomi. He was an absolute confidant of Shado. Nearly 80.00% of Shado's affairs were caused by What he dealt with should not be bribed by Samana and the others. Moreover, one of the dozens of ninjas present at the time was our Konoha spy. He said that he was sure that it was definitely a shadow clone technique."

"That shouldn't be the case. There are only a few of us in Konoha who know the Kage Clone Technique. They were all in the village at that time. Who would go to Kawa no Kuni to assassinate Shado?" A man with oil paint on his face said very The young man who was obviously from the Inuzuka family muttered to himself in confusion.

"No, there is really another one over there." Uchiha Mirror thought of something and smiled bitterly.

The young man was stunned and said, "Who is that?"

"Uchiha Ichigo"

Before Uchiha Mirror could speak, Shimura Danzo answered for him. He knew that Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama had personally known about Kurosaki Ichigo learning the shadow clone technique a few years ago.

The young man had an expression of disbelief on his face, "That's the Uchiha Ichigo who defected." As a member of the advisory board, he also knew about this high-level secret, but he still couldn't hold his breath. "According to what Hiruzen said just now, where is But there are several jounin and dozens of chuunin, how could he escape?"

Shimura Danzo looked at the young man from the Inuzuka family and smiled disdainfully without saying anything. He had always looked down on these guys who only liked to use their hands and not their brains. The Inuzuka family happened to be rich in such people.

"What do you mean by that look in your eyes?" Inuzuka Ryu also saw the disdain in Shimura Danzo's eyes and immediately roared, but his anger was extinguished in the next second as if cold water was poured over him from head to toe.

The mute Inuzuka-ryu glanced at Senju Tobirama and found that the unparalleled pressure that suddenly appeared on him had disappeared. He said softly with a serious tone, "You seem to have forgotten that Uchiha Ichigo is here." He escaped from four elite ANBU jounin teams."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Inuzuka said respectfully.

Senju Tobirama withdrew his gaze and sighed, "What a troubled time, let's discuss how to deal with this matter."

"Lord Hokage, I think we cannot slack off in our pursuit of Master Ichigo. Otherwise, not only will the outside of the village use this to blackmail us, but there will also be turmoil within the village." The first person to speak this time was still Uchiha Kagami.

Senju Tobirama waved his hand, as if he was not talking about Kurosaki Ichigo, "I will consider this matter, is there anything else?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen put forward a moderate opinion this time, "Hokage-sama, I think the Hokage Guards and Anbu can allocate part of their strength to support Yemaxi's troops. The Kingdom of Wind will definitely not give up and will definitely take action in the near future. .”

"You can just discuss this matter with Danzo." Senju Tobirama seemed a little disappointed. As his most hopeful disciple, Sarutobi Hiruzen's suggestions were really nothing outstanding.

Danzo Shimura performed well this time, "Hokage-sama, the war between us and Sand Hidden Village is probably unavoidable. In order to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos and profiting from it, I have dispatched several ANBU teams into the Earth Land where we have mutual suspicions." The Kingdom of the Wind, the Kingdom of the Wind and the Kingdom of the Water are carrying out sabotage activities and blaming each other, striving to get these three countries into chaos first so as to reduce the war pressure on the village."

"Well, you did a good job." Senju Tobirama nodded with a smile on his face. This was the first smile on his face in several days.

To be honest, although Konoha is much more harmonious than Sunagakure due to Senju Tobirama's control, power struggles are inevitable.Apart from other things, there are still signs of a faint competition between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, two of his favored disciples, to become the Hokage's heir.

These two people, each with their own merits, really made it difficult for Senshou Tobirama to make a decision, so he could only keep putting it off.

"Perhaps only before I die can I make a decision without hesitation."

Senju Tobirama sighed and secretly said.
