Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki

"Perhaps Danzo will spare your life because of our past friendship? You and I both know Danzo's character. He is a man with an extremely fierce personality. He will not have any reservations when dealing with enemies. Hiruzen You have long been regarded as an enemy by him." Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated to speak, but Mito Kadoyan suddenly raised his hand to stop, indicating that the other party should listen to him first.

"Do you still remember the quarrels you had with Danzo over the past few years? It didn't seem like anything at the time, but if you look at the content carefully, you can easily come to the conclusion that Danzo has always had his trump card."

"This trump card is most likely Uzumaki Shirataki and Kyuubi! Although I don't know when Danzo joined the Uzumaki clan, we can get some clues from Uzumaki Shirataki's shooting records over the years."

"Among the ninjas who have fought against Uzumaki Shirataki over the years, except for Hanzo, all others were either seriously injured or killed. Danzo not only personally attacked Uzumaki Shirataki in front of the Hokage Building, but also sent root ninjas to assassinate Uzumaki Shirataki afterwards!"

"Then why is Danzo able to survive to this day unharmed? Could it be that Danzo's strength has reached the level of Sansho Hanzo? From what we know about him, obviously not!"

"There is only one possibility in this case, and that is that the feud between Uzumaki Shirataki and Danzo was staged! It was staged deliberately to paralyze us."

Taking a deep breath, seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's face getting harder and harder to look at, Mito Kadoyan slowly added a conclusion, "You should be wary, Hiruzen."

After Mito Kadoen's analysis, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly came to his senses and replied in disbelief, "How is this possible? Shirataki is Mito-sama's younger brother, how could he seek skin from Danzo and Tora!"

Shaking his head, Mito Katoyan sighed, a deep fear appeared on his face unconsciously, "Uzumaki Shirataki, this person has too many secrets. Except for the ability of the Uzumaki clan, we still can't figure it out." clear."

"Besides, when he really started to show his talents, he was already around twenty-three years old. What before that? What do we all know? That pile of waste paper called files?"

Being kept speechless by several questions from Mito Kadobu in succession, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but take another drag on his cigarette, frowned and thought for a moment, and then analyzed in a deep voice, "It seems that he has been tolerant for nearly ten years. I'm afraid there is some kind of plot that we don't know about, but don't you think it's strange? "

A pair of brows seemed to be squeezed together. Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head in confusion and said to himself, "If his goal is really to help Danzo become Hokage, then what can he get? Is it Shimura Danzo?" What can I, Hiruzen Sarutobi, not give me?"

"As long as he shows his talent and strength early, as a member of the Uzumaki clan, what if the position of the Fourth Hokage is handed over to him?"

"Besides." A flash of memory appeared on his face. Sarutobi Hiruzen continued in an uncertain tone, "I had already made such a plan many years ago. For this reason, I also personally communicated with Shirataki. Talked about.”

As if he was speechless for a moment, after a long while, Sarutobi Hiruzen barely managed to get out the four words "Ununderstandable."

Sarutobi Hiruzen actually knew everything, and his behavior at this time was just to encourage Mito Kaden and Shirataki to go against each other. After all, he was the Hokage, and the matter of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country must not have anything to do with him. Shirataki cooperates with Danzo? Such a thing is one million percent impossible, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew it well.

Mito Kaden looked at the lonely figure of Sarutobi Hiruzen, his face blurred by the smoke. He knew in his heart how the other person was feeling at the moment, and he also felt unbearable for his old friend. It was time to say some things. .

"Now it's time to prepare, Hiruzen! If you want to deal with Danzo, you must first solve the problem of Uzumaki Shirataki! The truce and alliance with Iwagakure should be arranged immediately!"

This time, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not refuse sternly again, but closed his eyes in pain, leaned on the seat with his back slightly weak, and said slowly, "I'll think about it." The words were filled with thick emotion. The strong feeling of fatigue, accompanied by a slight trembling, seemed to indicate that the speaker was unable to calm down.

Mito Kaden silently looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen at this moment, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was very lucky that the Third Hokage in front of him could really make up his mind. Otherwise, neither the other party nor himself would be able to make up his mind. Death cannot be avoided.

Mito Kadeni clearly knew what kind of character Danzo was, and it was precisely because of this that everyone really had no way out when Danzo decided to start a civil war. Therefore, next, it is time to sign the armistice agreement and alliance agreement with Iwakakure.

Two agreements were signed at the same time, and enemies one second became allies the next. This kind of thing has never happened in the history of the ninja world. But Mito Kadoyan believed that Onoki would make the right choice. After all, the resources of the Fire Country could still support it. As long as you can live, even if your life is difficult, you can still accept it, but when you die, you really have nothing.

Although Mito Kadoen has begun to consider various follow-up matters in the aftermath of the alliance, Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude towards whether he really wants to form an alliance with Iwagakure, his current enemy, has not yet been made clear. He believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen had reached a consensus with him, that Shirataki must be eliminated, and no matter what happened, he must be defeated and controlled. However, whether Iwagakure's power is as important as imagined remains to be discussed.

It is true that Onoki and a group of upper-level Iwagakure ninjas are very powerful in combat. If they bring in this foreign aid, their chances of winning in the battle with Shirataki will definitely increase. But the enemy is the enemy after all. Even if politicians like them can temporarily put aside their hatred for their own interests, it is still uncertain whether the ninjas below can accept it.

The enemy ninja who had killed his companions, even relatives and friends before, was about to become his teammate? It is conceivable that whether it is an Iwa ninja or a Konoha ninja, there is something wrong with being able to accept this kind of thing calmly. Even Ohnoki, who has always been very calculating, it is hard to say whether he will make the decision to cooperate with the enemy for the benefit of Konoha's promise, causing his Tsuchikage's butt to completely fall off.

There are too many unknowns, and rashly starting negotiations with Iwagakure will only make Konoha passive.

Therefore, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen had been thinking about it for three days without giving him an answer, he did not press too hard. Fighting continues to break out on the battlefield of the Land of Rain. The Konoha ninjas and Iwa ninjas are still fighting fiercely. Nothing seems to have changed. However, the war has reached this point, and everyone knows that the war is about to end, whether it is the top leaders of both sides, the jounin in the middle, or most of the chuunin and genin at the bottom.

Although unlike the Kawa no Kuni battlefield, the Umo no Kuni battlefield did not produce any large-scale decisive battles, Iwagakure still seemed to be on the verge of defeat, and it was already expected that Konoha would become the winner. This is not because there is a significant gap in strength between the two sides, but simply because Iwagakure's logistics can no longer hold up.

First, there was a big battle with Kirigakure, then there was a life-and-death fight against Amegakure, and finally there was a long-term fierce battle with Konoha, and they had to reserve military resources to defend against Kumogakure, who was eyeing him. The Land of Earth is not the Land of Fire, so many wars. After the battle, combat supplies, food, grass, weapons, etc. were almost completely consumed.

The war is all about logistics, and there is no obvious gap between the military strength of Iwagakure and Konoha. It is impossible for Ohnoki to risk a total defeat and have a large-scale battle with Konoha like Shirataki did against Sunagakure. If you really do this, if you are not careful, Sunagakure's today may very well become Iwagakure's tomorrow. With this lesson in mind, Onoki will not dare to make a decision easily and risk the future of Earth Country rashly.

Compared to young people like the Third Kazekage, Ohnoki is now much older, and his gambling appetite is not as great as the former's. Especially after Konoha defeated Sunagakure, will the free Shirataki switch to the Land of Rain? .This is still an unknown number.

Although the dispute between the two factions in Konoha is now basically known to everyone, Ohnoki, as a Tsuchikage, must consider every possibility. Among them, including the worst kind, Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen temporarily suppressed their internal conflicts and joined forces to deal with their Iwagakure first.

Although the probability of this situation happening is extremely low, since it exists, and Shirataki's role in it is still unclear, he must consider it. Otherwise, let's not talk about the adverse consequences that Iwagakure may encounter. Onoki himself. He didn't want to face the flanking attacks of Uzumaki Shirataki and Hatake Sakumo at the same time.

Although Ohnoki has not seen Shirataki's strength with his own eyes, his basic sense tells him that in a one-on-two situation, he is definitely no match for Shirataki and Hatake Sakumo, and the possibility of his death is extremely high.

Just like what Onoki said to the high-ranking Ninja Army members sitting on both sides of the long table in the Iwagakure meeting tent, "Even if I don't want to admit it, it seems that if Uzumaki Shirataki and Hatake Saku If Shigeru comes to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Rain."

A pair of brows frowned slightly, and his short waist straightened. Ohnoki moved his buttocks and curled his lips somewhat unnaturally, but he still said bluntly, "Defeating the Kazekage and Drought head-on is really a true achievement." Such a monster, why can there still be ninjas of this level in this era?”

This question is not so much asked to everyone present, but rather to oneself, because Onoki is really confused, why do Konoha's geniuses and strong men always come out in an endless stream? In comparison, why do they, Iwagakure, look so helpless? Can't even find a suitable successor to the Tsuchikage?

He raised his eyes and glanced left and right, scanning the face of an elite jounin named Iwagakure, but he only saw lowered heads. Apparently no one wanted to answer his question. At this moment, no one said anything like "Shirataki only has a false reputation" or "Tsuchikage-sama, don't worry, I can definitely defeat Shirataki." Not a single one.

Although Shirataki has never targeted Iwagakure in a big way in the past few years, and there has never been a record of Shirataki fighting any Iwagakure. But just the experiences of Amegakure and Sunagakure in the past few years are enough to prove Shirataki's terror.

A few days ago, not long after the information about the Battle of Ishikawa Hill was received, everyone already knew what happened on the battlefield of Kawa no Kuni. Including the news that after being approached by Shirataki, the Third Kazekage was instantly killed by him, which gave all Iwagakure Jonin the most basic self-awareness.
