026 The Dark Side of Fire: Konoha Faction Struggle

"Then, Hokage-sama, I will take my leave first!"

White Fang knelt down on one knee, transformed into a white shadow, and quickly disappeared into Sarutobi's office.

Sarutobi sat back on his chair, his expression uncertain.

After a while, he said to the empty office:

"Come out, Danzo, you've been listening outside for a long time, right?"

Sarutobi's voice fell, and the office door was opened.

A tall and thin figure slowly walked in from the outside, leaning against the shadow of the wall, his wolf-like eyes shining with cold white light.

Shimura Danzo said:

"It's really not fun, Sarutobi. Fortunately, we have been old friends for many years. You brought a mysterious figure like Nanami Shirabuchi into the village without even telling me."

Sarutobi was not angry with Danzo and said:

"After the defeat of Kong Ren, all the big families knew about Bai Yuan, right?"

"Of course I know. Such a large floating city fell, and the movement was extremely shocking. Uchiha and Hinata's eyes had already been fully activated to find out everything clearly." Danzo replied slowly.

Sarutobi held his forehead, his face full of distress:

"Uchiha and Hinata have always had different intentions since I came to power. I'm worried that they will take advantage of it."

Konoha Ninja Village descends from the Senju family, and the two most powerful families are the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

The first and second generation Hokages of Konoha were both members of the Senju family. After the death of the second generation, the Senju family gradually faded away from Konoha's political stage.

According to common sense, the third generation Hokage should be a member of the two major families. Unexpectedly, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned out to be the third generation Hokage and took the position of the third generation Hokage. From then on, the two major families were dissatisfied with Sarutobi.

Although the Sarutobi family is also a powerful family, it can only be considered weak compared to the two major families. Sarutobi Hiruzen had to rely on the power of civilian ninjas to maintain a balance of power with Uchiha Hyuga.

Nowadays, the three major advisors under Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Enmon, Koharu Koharu, and Danzo Shimura, are all civilians.

Including the Hokage's apprentices and grandsons, most of them are civilians.

It can be said that the current Hokage clan is a Konoha civilian faction that developed and expanded on the basis of the Senju clan, and there has always been a conflict with the aristocratic faction dominated by Uchiha Hinata.

It was not until Sarutobi Hiruzen came to power that the conflict between the two parties intensified.

As a disciple of Jiraiya, Baibuchi was personally recruited into the ANBU directly under the Hokage by Hiruzen Sarutobi. On the political spectrum of Konoha, he belongs to the absolute Hokage faction. With the strength he has shown now, he will definitely be favored by the noble faction. fear and suppression.

Sarutobi's political demand is to have the Hokage's position be inherited by the common people represented by his apprentice Sun, which runs counter to the demands of the aristocratic faction.

Now Konoha is in a critical period when the third generation of Hokage is "out of energy" and is about to elect the fourth generation of Hokage. The noble faction will not let the strength of the Hokage faction be strengthened. It is not impossible to use some despicable means. possible.

Sarutobi even had a prediction that in the future, more outstanding ninjas in Konoha would die in factional struggles than in battlefields.

In order to protect the will of fire inherited from the first and second generations, he must prevent this situation from happening.

Danzo Shimura moved his wrist lightly and said calmly:

"It seems that the relationship between the Uchiha and Hinata gang and us is going to deteriorate further. How are you going to deal with it, Sarutobi?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed lightly and said:

"After the Second Ninja War, Uchiha and Hinata originally had a tendency to ease their relationship with us. Recently, a good boy named Shisui came out of the Uchiha family, and there is also Uchiha Mikoto, who works in the ANBU. This It just shows that Konoha is developing in a good direction. I want to see if we can use peaceful means..."

Shimura Danzo took a step forward, came to Sarutobi, and said coldly with the corners of his knife-like mouth:

"They just hide their wolfish ambitions very well. When we show a slight flaw, they will reveal their true nature and pounce on our necks like evil wolves."

He slapped his palms heavily on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk.

"Sarutobi, we can't wait any longer. Now while we are strong, with the power of Shirabuchi, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Minato and others, why not take the opportunity to catch them all and deal with this group of rebels once and for all? Where is the threat of the Will of Fire!?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen wrinkled his forehead, obviously hesitant.

"But... killing each other goes against the ideals of the first generation to found Konoha. I really don't want to get to that point unless I have to..."

Shimura Danzo's eyes were fixed on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"When the rebellion continues, now is the best time to eradicate the cancer. What if we wait until we are old and the Uchiha rebels take the opportunity to rise to power? There have been many geniuses in their clan recently. !”

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hands, looking obviously tired.

"I can see your loyalty to Konoha, but...this matter is of vital importance, and I still need to think about it for some time."

The implication was that he rejected Danzo's decision and issued an expulsion order for Danzo.

Danzo Shimura had a gloomy face, snorted coldly, turned around and walked out the door.

"Sarutobi, I know very well that you are a glorious branch of Konoha, enjoying the admiration of thousands of people. You must be holy and there must not be a trace of stain on your body. Unfortunately, many things cannot be solved with the right way..."

Shimura Danzo's eyes were sinister, but deep down in his heart he felt deeply righteous.

"Some dirty work must be done by the 'roots' on the dark side."

……

After completing the complicated discharge procedures, Bai Yuan was finally discharged from the hospital.

He felt no joy at all.

Bai Yuan looked depressed, unhappy because he was restricted from leaving the village.

"How can I maintain my prestige if I can't go out on missions? It will take years and months to leave the Hokage world..." Bai Yuan muttered softly.

At this time, Uchiha Mikoto's soft voice came to Shirabuchi's ears.

"Yuan, I will send you here."

Baiyuan nodded and said to Mikoto:

"Well, I've been troubling you all this time, Zi Yan."

Mikoto's plain little face was filled with a smile, and she said to Bai Yuan:

"No trouble, no trouble. Also, Yuan, can you call me by my real name from now on..."

Uchiha Mikoto lowered her head slightly, looked at Bai Yuan cautiously, full of girlish expectations, and said softly:

"Mikoto."

Bai Yuan smiled gently:

"Mikoto, I remember it, you can call me by my real name from now on, Baiyuan."

"Baiyuan, Baiyuan." Mikoto chanted several times again, raised her head, her eyes sparkling.

"Bai Yuan, I will always remember you!"

After the two said goodbye, Mikoto jumped into the alley.

Bai Yuan was about to leave when his ears, which had stronger hearing than ordinary people, moved and heard an evil voice coming from the alley.

"Mikoto, do you seem to have a good relationship with that person just now?"
