I asked you to be Hokage and you burned Konoha?

Although Danzo didn't like this little guy's recklessness and always felt that it was a bit unruly, but as time went by, he seemed to have gotten used to it. Occasionally, there was a kid around who was not afraid of him, and the feeling didn't seem to be annoying.

However, he is very busy on weekdays. He has too many things to be responsible for, and he doesn't have much time to take care of each other. But he unexpectedly discovered that... this little guy actually became a genius?

A year ago, the opponent showed strength far beyond that of his peers. Even when faced with Uchiha Shisui, who was known as Uchiha's hope, he retreated unscathed. But in this year, the opponent's strength has improved faster and faster, and has become more and more exaggerated. , he has no doubt that the other party can defeat him even if he fights Uchiha Shisui, who is known as the strongest Uchiha.

And it's not just the strength, but also the opponent's size and courage, as well as the wisdom that is completely inconsistent with the appearance.

The other party inherited his will, and he wanted Konoha to be at the top of the ninja world just like him. The only difference was...

He just thought about it, even if he sacrificed everything for it, he still felt that he was still far away from realizing his dream, but Seti...

It is true that Sett could not do it now, but Sett was young and had unlimited possibilities in the future, so his mind changed.

From utilization to assistance.

He didn't know if the other party could do it, but he chose to believe. Just like what they said between them, trust would only be lost when they truly failed.

A trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, and he soon returned to his usual coldness, and said quietly: "And not only that, Orochimaru's affairs have been discovered, and Hiruzen has not dealt with him yet. I feel that Hiruzen may be a little bit Something else."

"what?"

Seti was confused when he heard this, Danzo shook his head slightly and explained: "The Hokage can't keep his own secrets, but the teacher can."

"Hiruzhan has three disciples, but among these three disciples, Hiruzen's favorite is actually Orochimaru, and Orochimaru has indeed lived up to his expectations. He is extremely outstanding in terms of strength, skills, and character. Before the Feng Shui Sect came into being, Hiruzen wanted to support the other party to become the Fourth Hokage."

It was actually because of this that he came into contact with Orochimaru. After all, Orochimaru was almost the appointed Hokage at that time, and Orochimaru had a different personality from the other two. He felt that even if the other party could not let Konoha dominate the ninja world, he could still make it. Konoha was more powerful, so he had already begun to move closer to Orochimaru at that time.

However...

Minato Namikaze came out of nowhere and took away the position of Hokage at the age of twenty-four.

He doesn't like Namikaze Minato too much, but he doesn't hate it either. After all, the opponent's Flying Thunder God is indeed very strong. It feels even stronger than the teacher's Flying Thunder God. It has unparalleled deterrence on the battlefield... As long as Konoha is strong , he will actually not object. Even if it is because of trust issues, he will remain neutral and silent at best.

During that period, he didn't even shout that he wanted to destroy the Uchiha, but wanted to see what Namikaze Minato could do. And Namikaze Minato did come into contact with the Uchiha clan and gained their friendship. Everything Everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

Then...

Namikaze Minato is gone.

Still died in the hands of Kyuubi controlled by Sharingan.

Such changes also intensified his fear of Uchiha.

"As Hokage, you need to be impartial. Even if you have feelings, you must hide them. Orochimaru is different from me. He does not have my qualifications. Although his achievements are not small, they are not as good as me. If you want to be Hokage Come and deal with it, even if you don’t kill, you still have to expel it, otherwise people will be uneasy, but..."

Danzo said quietly: "If it weren't for Hokage, as a teacher he wouldn't have to face this kind of choice."

"Old man, what do you mean..."

"He wants to drag you until you are on top and let you deal with Orochimaru's affairs."

Seeing that Seti realized it, he twitched the corner of his mouth and revealed an ugly smile, "This is actually an exchange of interests. If he kills me, you will probably not be merciful to Orochimaru if you become Hokage, but if he didn't choose to do it, , you have to accept this affection."

Sarutobi Hiruzen could kill him at all costs. Although he didn't want to admit it, he might not be that old guy's opponent. However, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't choose to take action. He just removed his value and grounded him. This situation Seti had to accept the points no matter what.

and...

"Next, as the root leader, you will subdue the Uchiha clan. No matter what you do next, the village will not hinder you. As long as you can successfully subdue the Uchiha clan, you will become the new leader by the end of next year at most. The Hokage."

After hearing this, Seti felt helpless.

Although it felt very beneficial to him, this feeling of being manipulated still made him a little uncomfortable.

But no matter how uncomfortable it was, he couldn't refuse and could only choose to accept.

"As Hokage, pure force is not enough. I don't worry about your force. The only thing I worry about is your control in this aspect."

Seeing Seti's expression, Danzo knew what he was thinking and said quietly: "The village is like a huge cake. If you want to make everyone obey, you need to share the cake with each other according to their corresponding status. What are you waiting for? When you can divide the cake until everyone is satisfied, then all the power of the village will be used for you, and Hiruzen is actually doing a pretty good job at this point."

"Of course, it's not just about sharing the cake well. The main reason is that I'm still there secretly, and those who disobey have gone to the front line. The remaining taboo me, even if they are dissatisfied, they don't dare to show it, and will naturally show their dissatisfaction to the Hokage. If we get closer over there, we can accept some losses.”

"Like the Hyuga clan, even if you don't take action this time and I'm threatening you, the Hyuga clan won't dare to say anything and will still move closer to the Hokage."

After saying this, he paused and said seriously: "There are many people who fear power but not virtue. You have to have both soft and hard skills. You should be respected and feared at the same time. This is the art of balance. This is what I want you to learn. .”

"Of course, you are actually very good at this, so in my opinion, even now you can actually become a qualified Hokage."

Seti beamed with joy when he heard this and accepted the compliment. After all, the old man rarely praised others.

Seeing his silly grin, Danzo shook his head slightly, "Go ahead, take over the position of leader of the root, and then convince the Uchiha clan to show me and everyone in the village. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me. "

"Okay! Just wait and see!"

Seti agreed, stood up, raised his lips slightly, and walked out, but when he reached the door, he stopped.

"What else?"

"It's nothing, I just thought that old man, you would be bored living here alone, why don't you move to my place? Anyway, it's grounded, and everywhere you go..."

"That's not necessary."

"Then... how about I find a widow to serve you? You are young and strong, maybe you can also serve the Shimura clan..."

"roll!!"

Feeling the chakra fluctuations behind him, Seti turned and ran away.

Looking at the departing figure, Danzo rubbed his brows and picked up the tea cup. The curve of the corner of his mouth was obscured by the white mist in the cup.
