The White-eyed Princess Behind the Leaf's Curtain

It has to be said that Hizu and Fugaku walked onto the street arm in arm, which was really a big event that shocked the Konoha ninjas.

So much so that the ANBU members who saw this scene felt that they were under an illusion.

He tried it: "Illusion, solution"

Nothing has changed.

Then he finally confirmed that this scene that made him feel like a thriller actually happened...

That's the feeling of reshaping one's outlook on life.

If it were an ordinary person, he would be able to think about life in a daze now, but he is a ninja after all, and even if he encounters something extremely surprising, he will not be shocked for long.

So after the shock, he faithfully fulfilled his mission.

The third generation can naturally know the situation here in real time, but he does not know what Rizu means, and he lacks a little confidence if he wants to question.

Konoha is not his own Konoha.

Even as the Sandaime Hokage of Konoha Hidden Village, he has been in power for decades, and the third generation's control over the village has been declining.

After all, this is a world where strength is respected.

If you want to have enough control over the village, in addition to having strong strength yourself, you also need to have a powerful enough force.

The third generation does not have the chakra of the first generation.

If he had done everything himself, he would have been exhausted years ago without waiting until now.

Of course, although the power of the third generation is being divided, the main reason is that the control over those ninjas and ANBU is declining.

The release and acceptance of those tasks are all stamped by the third generation.

The power has not declined much.

But if the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan unite, even if they are really worried about something happening, they will not be able to question them at will.

This is different from the balance of power of those daimyo nobles. Ninjas have their own rules.

In this rule, the proportion of strength is very important.

After losing the Sannin, losing Minato, etc., the third generation's subordinates could not find a single strong Kage level person at their disposal.

Danzo was actually his right-hand man.

But if this right-hand person is in another person, it is easy for him to have his own ideas and not be completely under his control.

Especially before the third generation received the news, Danzo had already been exposed to the news earlier, and even got more detailed information.

Normally, he would have been ready to pour another layer of dirty water on the Uchiha clan.

And this time the evidence is solid.

The Uchiha clan colluded with the Hyuga clan and prepared to harm the top management, so a big hat was slapped on them.

But now for Danzo, Hizu is on his side.

In the shadows of the root base, Danzo looked at this information and was extremely troubled. He clearly felt that this should be a good thing, but he still had many doubts in his heart.

Peering half out of the shadows, Danzo's face looked a little uncertain.

"Hyuuga clan..." He whispered, his voice slightly hoarse, and finally stopped.

He had never paid much attention to this clan in the past.

No matter how useful the Byakugan is in the war, it is an indisputable fact that the Hyuga clan does not have a Kage-level strongman. Including Hizu, there is actually a gap in strength between Danzo and Danzo.

Weak is weak

But if they unite with the Uchiha clan again, they will inevitably have different intentions.In the past, he just poured dirty water on the Uchiha, but he didn't think this clan really dared to have such intentions, including the Hyuga clan.

He thinks the roots have control over the situation.

But now he doesn't think so.

He was a little worried that things were beyond his control.

The face of the third generation appeared in his mind...

From the unhappy look on his face when he was old, he recalled the calmness when he was young, the kind of calmness that he hated so much.

"It makes me wonder, is this your purpose of leaving it alone?" Danzo's face showed a struggle, "But if I just watch like this...if there are really unstable factors, it may be too late. .”

It seems to be a habit

His voice was low.

Even in this shadow.

Even in your own territory.

Don't talk about right and wrong when chatting, and always think about your own mistakes when sitting quietly.But few people can do this. Even when they are alone, it is easy to deceive themselves.

It's hard to face who you really are.

He can say to others that it is for Konoha, and to the Third Generation that it is to reduce hidden dangers, but to himself, is it for power?

How could he be such a person?

Suddenly, memories from decades ago resurfaced in my mind.

Faced with the same choice, he had doubts and even a feeling of fear in his heart. It wasn't until that person stood up that he felt at ease.

Yes, it was probably just a moment of hesitation, maybe it was just because he was accidentally slowed down by half a beat. He could tell the third generation that he wanted to stand up, but he was just robbed.

But the performance over the next few years cannot be faked.

At that time, the third generation was at its peak, fully demonstrating its strength and methods, turning the tide and saving Konoha from danger.

Danzo didn't want to admit that he was convinced at that time.

And in the future, the division of labor was clear, and no matter what dangers were encountered, it seemed that he always felt confident.

If he had been the first person to stand up at that time, would everything have been different?

Maybe the truth is it won't make any difference.

Maybe fate will take another trajectory.

But the result happened after all.

But Danzo was unwilling to do so.

Especially as time went by, he slowly discovered that his seemingly perfect friend was actually not so perfect.

He will make mistakes and he will be weak.

Tu

As a Hokage, such a weak approach will always leave hidden dangers.

The more successful he was in sabotage and the more he found that the third generation was powerless, the more Danzo truly confirmed his thoughts.

His friend is not suitable for this position.

But now when he really started to think about it from the perspective of this village, he found that he still hesitated.

嘭

Such things as cowardice and doubt disappeared long ago when we were young.

The table shook, causing the root members not far away to lower their heads. Although they didn't understand what the leader meant, they just didn't want to talk too much.

Rereading the document, Danzo temporarily gave up pursuing the matter: "For Konoha, it's not like I can't take a longer view."

Soon, he sent additional root members to investigate.

Although it is said that you should let go, you still need to have some supervision, so just show a little more let go.

After a hard struggle, Danzo made such a decision.

There is great progress compared to the past.

Although almost no one can feel it.

......

Uchiha clan.

When Hizu helped Fugaku over, the Uchiha clan members who saw this scene were wary at first, and then were scolded by Fugaku.

Then, like the first Anbu, they rubbed their eyes, suspecting that they had seen wrongly.

When Mikoto came out to pick up her husband, her expression turned strange for a moment.

"Hyuuga Clan Leader, what are you..." Mikoto said hesitantly, not knowing what to say.

"Fugaku helped me a lot, so I specially treated him. Now that he has drunk too much, come and send him home." Hizu said briefly, and handed Fugaku to Mikoto.

Then he said apologetically: "I'm really sorry. I just wanted to thank you. I didn't take into account Fugaku's drinking capacity. It's my fault."

Although, according to Fugaku's drinking method, not getting drunk is the strangest thing.

But it’s hard to say this.

If you say it, it will change your taste.

"It's okay," Mikoto turned to Fugaku, and then hesitantly said, "You're here, why don't you go in and sit down?"

"No, I'm just sending Fugaku back." Rizu shook his head and said before leaving, "It seems that people from this clan don't seem to welcome me very much. I'd better leave first without sending him away."

As soon as he finished speaking, he left here directly.

Mikoto, who stayed where she was, dragged Fugaku back. When he returned to the house, Fugaku was almost awake.

He stood up straight and said to his wife: "Just treat what happened today as a normal thing. Rizu and I are considered good friends. Maybe we can move around normally in the future."

"Well, it's up to you." Mikoto didn't offer any advice.

As a wife, she naturally respects her husband's decision and won't say anything even if she has doubts.

Even if Fugaku decided to die in the original book, she would follow him.
