Hearing Xu Hong's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Danzo next to him without any trace, and found that Danzo's face was expressionless, and he still had the same dead face. He turned to Xu Hong and said: "I understand, this I’ll deal with it later!”

Xu Hong nodded and stood beside Itachi, waiting for the arrival of the leading jounin.

At this time, Danzo came to the two of them with a cane, and his remaining single eye flashed with cold light. He looked at the two of them like this. For a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Do you two want to join me? Roots!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting at his desk, had some changes in his face, his expression became a little cold, and he said: "Danzo, the two of them have just graduated, it is impossible for them to join your department, not now and not in the future! "

Danzo's expression did not change at all, and he said very calmly: "Whether Kaja joins or not depends on their answer. I think as the Hokage, you can't stop them from entering any department, right?!~"

"Danzo, I am Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen roared angrily.

Danzo ignored Sarutobi Hiruzen and continued to look at the two.

Itachi said politely: "I'm sorry, Danzo-sama, I just want to be a ninja to protect Konoha, I don't want to be a ninja at the root!"

As the young leader of the Uchiha clan, and having studied the history of the ninja world for three years, Itachi was very aware of the existence of the Roots, and he had no interest in that kind of organization that annihilated humanity.

Danzo turned to look at Xu Hong and said, "What about you?!"

Xu Hong stood up straight, met Danzo's gaze, and said with a smile: "Danzo-sama, right! I will not choose to join the Root! I don't even know what kind of organization the Root is, why should I join?!"

At this time, Xu Hong fully demonstrated what it means to be a new ninja who has just graduated. I wonder if the root is not normal!

Danzo said with a somewhat cold tone: "The roots are just like the literal meaning, rooted in the darkness underground. The biggest purpose is to secretly eliminate obstacles that will hinder the prosperity of the village. It is the existence of protecting the village in the darkness!"

Xu Hong showed a sudden realization that he had become stronger, and immediately became very determined, saying: "If this is the case, it will be even more impossible for me to agree to Danzo-sama's invitation. My philosophy is to be an upright and aboveboard ninja. ah!"

After speaking, a bright smile appeared on his face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen in the distance breathed a sigh of relief and said to Danzo in a cold tone: "Duanzo, you heard it, neither of them will join your department!"

Danzo hit the ground hard with his cane and returned to Sarutobi Hiruzen's side. His eyes were fixed on Itachi. He didn't care about Xu Hong. He didn't care about a guy who couldn't even use ninjutsu. He would take it seriously, but he must get hold of Uchiha Itachi, who had already shown his strength, and if he couldn't, he would destroy him.

The sensitive Itachi also noticed Danzo's gaze and frowned unconsciously, then relaxed.

Xu Hong looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, and he understood why Senju Tobirama chose Sarutobi Hiruzen back then.Although Sarutobi Hiruzen is a hypocrite and a bit indecisive, he at least has the vision to see clearly the embarrassing position Konoha is in at this time and understand that there are no ninjas in Konoha who can calm the situation.

He is already old and it is impossible to show much of his strength.Jiraiya and Tsunade should also be dissatisfied with the behavior of the village's senior officials and have temporarily left the village.

There are no other Kage-level experts in the village now. At 60 years old, she has become a spirit and has seen through the current situation in Konoha.

He knew that he could no longer suppress his old friend, and he was so indecisive that he didn't know how to deal with Danzo, so he could only let it develop.

But he is also trying his best to help the village preserve its strength until the new Hokage takes over.That's why he asked Shisui to join the Anbu and started to integrate Uchiha into Konoha, because he knew that once something happened to Uchiha again, the strength of Konoha as a whole would decline again. Once a war breaks out, Konoha will really be in trouble. is in danger.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Danzo completely distrusted Uchiha and coveted Uchiha's power, so it was impossible for him to succeed.

As for Danzo, he is extremely suspicious, cautious, insidious, and tough. He does not trust others and cannot tolerate the slightest possible omission. He must follow his own ideas before he can rest assured.

This kind of person cannot become a leader at all. Senju Tobirama probably saw this and did not choose him to become Hokage. Xu Hong believed that even in the first ninja war that year, Danzo chose to stay before Sarutobi Hiruzen. After the break, he won't become Hokage.

Just as Xu Hong was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

As soon as the words fell, Jonin Minazuki walked in with his two genin, which made Xu Hong a little surprised. He didn't expect Itachi to meet this team after delaying his graduation for two years.

Minazuki led the team members to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said respectfully: "I have met the Sandaime-sama!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up, pointed at Uchiha Itachi in the distance, and said with a smile: "Jōnin Minazuki, this is the genin the village has added for you, Uchiha Itachi!"

Itachi walked up to Minazuki and said very politely: "Hello! My name is Itachi Uchiha. Please give me your advice in the future!"

Minazuki was stunned for a moment. He thought that Uchiha people would be very arrogant, but he didn't expect to be so polite. He didn't know how to answer: "Please give me some advice!"

He turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "Sandaime-sama, I will take Itachi and leave first!"

After bowing, he took Uchiha Itachi and the two genin and walked outside. He planned to run in the team early and form a fighting force.

As soon as Minazuki left, three ninjas of similar age came in. Seeing the person standing in the middle, Xu Hong was also a little surprised. The people who came were none other than Metkai, Ebisu and Shiranui Genma.

Kai showed a big smile, his teeth shining brightly, and smiled at Xu Hong: "Young man, we meet again, we will be on the same team from now on!

Haha, this is youth! "

Seeing the passionate Kai, Ebisu and Shiranui Genma couldn't help but cover their faces, it was so embarrassing.

Xu Hong turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen with doubts on his face, hoping to get an answer. This team was obviously unreasonable. Kai was a special jounin, and Ebisu and Shiranui Genma were either jounin or middle level. Forbearance is not configured for newcomers at all.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also a little embarrassed, but he still coughed twice and said: "Xu Hong, you also understand that you are a pure taijutsu ninja, and Kai is the best person to teach you!

In addition, there are no vacancies in other teams in the village, and your strength is sufficient, so you will be placed in Kai's team! "
