Traveling through Naruto: I am the strongest rotten person!

"What did you say?"

Minami looked at Danzo with disappointment and said slowly: "The person you fell in love with for the first time..."

"..."

She thought she could talk about it calmly, but when she really opened her mouth, she realized how hard it was to say something stuck in her throat.

"Why can't you even confess your love and let go willingly?"

When Minami said this, Danzo's expression changed instantly. He looked at his wife in disbelief, and then his eyes narrowed, and a cold aura emanated from his body.

Beauty rippled his inner skin, which was one of his few failures. He thought no one would know about it, but he never thought that his wife would already know about it.

Danzo suppressed his anger, and his expression could no longer be described as ugly.

"Didn't Yusuke have the same thoughts as you at that time?" Minami laughed sarcastically, "That's not right. At least my son didn't let go because of the other party's absolute suppression. He took the initiative to quietly quit and fulfilled others. This point I don’t know how much more noble than you are.”

Danzo had to exercise great restraint to control himself and not reach out to strangle Minami right now.

This is not a pleasant topic. It is really ridiculous for the couple to talk about such trivial matters in their son's house.

"Kousuke doesn't want to be your puppet. In the past, he tried his best to please you and see you smile at him. This shouldn't be like this between father and son."

This shouldn't be the case between father and son, Hiruzen also said this.

"He just wants to have an ordinary father. Even if the position of Hokage is your dream, all he expects is to do his best and obey fate."

"There is only one position of Hokage. Some people can be the Hokage. Of course, some people cannot be the Hokage. Why are you so persistent? What can you do if you become the Hokage?"

"Then why does it have to be Hiruzen and not me?" This was the knot that was most difficult to untie in Danzo's heart.

If the Hokage was not Hiruzen but someone else, wouldn't he be so crazy?

"If you still can't let go of this obsession, probably Kosuke will never be able to go back to the past in his life, and you will have to accept his fate and see him treat you as an estranged acquaintance."

Danzo was silent, with his dream on one side and his son on the other. It was the first time he experienced this feeling of tearing apart.

For a long time since then, Danzo would think about this problem whenever he had time.

What's wrong with him wanting to be Hokage? Why doesn't the whole world understand him?

The conversation with his wife ended on bad terms, and Danzo did not return home for a while, living in the root organization.

After a small internal meeting that day, for the first time, Danzo saw Hiruzen on the bridges crisscrossing the root organization.

He still looked the same as before, wearing the red and white Hokage robe, with the pipe in his mouth that never left his body, and he appeared here alone.

"How did you..." Danzo was slightly surprised.

Under normal circumstances, Hiruzen would not come here unless...

Hiruzen smiled and raised his hand to tell Danzo not to be nervous. He crossed Danzo and walked into the room behind him. As he walked, he said, "Mrs. Minami came to see me and said that you haven't been home for a long time. I’m here to see what’s going on with you on her behalf.”

Danzo frowned and said to himself, "A troublesome woman."

Although he didn't want to talk to Hiruzen, he had to follow him back due to his status.

Danzo's office in the Root Organization was just like him, with a cold-blooded style. Hiruzen curled his lips. He and Danzo were indeed two completely different people. Such different people were actually the best friends at one time.

Hiruzen found a place to sit down casually and signaled Danzo, who had always been nervous, to relax a little. He smiled at him, "Don't worry, Mrs. Minami didn't say anything else. She was just worried about whether you were well fed and clothed here. Are you feeling uncomfortable? It's not convenient for her to come in, so I'll come to see you on her behalf."

Danzo didn't know how to tell Hiruzen. He couldn't just say that because I wanted to be Hokage, my whole family didn't support it, so I ran away from home in anger.

What a jaw-dropping joke.

Hiruzen chatted with Danzo in a very easy-going manner, talking about the small local war against Kumogakure, the daily life of the Konoha villagers, his own children, the ninja who had done a good job recently, and by the way, he also talked about Yugakure.

"The news from the Anbu said that Sanshouyu Hanzo has a group of capable assistants around him. They are an organization called Akatsuki. Most of them are young people in their 20s. Hanzo trusts them very much and accepts some of their ideas. Amegakure is a little different now than before."

Danzo listened quietly and agreed against his will, "Oh? That's good."

Danzo was no stranger to the word "Akatsuki Organization". For this organization, Kagura had personally visited him at home and asked him not to interfere in the affairs of this organization.

He still remembers Kagura's attitude of giving both kindness and power, as if it was just yesterday.

He didn't interfere, but instead allowed this organization to collude with Hanzo. I don't know whether it was a blessing or a misfortune.

Hiruzen blew out a smoke ring and looked at the expressionless Danzo, his eyes were bright, "Yes, this is good, so, we are all old, shouldn't we also consider delegating power to young people? "

Decentralization?

Danzo looked at Hiruzen warily. He didn't understand why Hiruzen said this today. What did he mean? Did he want to take this opportunity to take away the root under his hand?

Hiruzen clearly saw through Danzo's thoughts.

"Just like after I became Hokage, Tobirama-sensei asked me to form my own ANBU, even the fourth and fifth generations later would form their own ANBU. The nature of ANBU is quite special, and they basically only know how to do it. Be loyal to a leader, so no one will take away your roots.”

Hiruzen said it sincerely, but Danzo didn't believe it.

"In that case, what do you mean by delegating power to young people?"

"It literally means that we are getting older and have done so much that we should and shouldn't do. It's time to give this position to younger people, what do you think?"

Danzo was at a loss for a moment, as if he didn't believe his ears, and he tentatively asked what he thought.

"So what you mean is... let's step down from this position together?"

With only the last puff of smoke left in the pipe, Hiruzen took a long drag and then exhaled slowly.

After a brief absence, he nodded firmly, "You should believe in the abilities of young people. There are so many outstanding young people in Konoha. What's more, the first and second generations are living well. I don't want to be the one who dies in office." The Hokage, why not retreat now?"

Even after retiring, Hiruzen has been the Hokage for more than ten years. During this period, he has experienced the devastation of the Second Ninja War and has also endured three Ninja Wars. As a Kage, he is very competent. , it can be considered complete.

"Are you sincere?"

"Ah," Hiruzen nodded.

Hiruzen had doubted more than once whether becoming Hokage was the right choice.

It is because ninjas may die at any time due to their missions and live a precarious life that they pay more attention to their companions and form bonds that cannot be broken.

They grew up together since childhood, chasing each other's progress. The bond formed over time and through countless births and deaths is more important than many things.

How many such friends can a person have in his life?

Even if Danzo puts the knife on his neck, he should still hesitate when fighting back, right?

How could the bond that was finally formed be painfully severed with a knife?

If someone else were to be the Hokage, no matter it was Uchiha Kagami or anyone else, as long as he inherited the will of fire from the first and second generations, it would be fine.

So, would he and Danzo not have developed into the awkward and unfamiliar relationship they have today?

They shouldn't be like this, best friends should always be best friends.

However, the human heart is the most uncontrollable thing in this world.
