Just when Yu Yue was sneering and preparing to settle the score with someone.
Hatake Kakashi rushed in.
"Danzo-sama said that all Uchiha must return to Uchiha Street and not enter or leave. Shisui..."
"Shisui won't leave."
Yu Yue didn't hesitate for a second.
"You've come just in time. Come and help me sort out the data."
Although the opponent is a stupid... unclear old man.
But precisely because of this, when tearing off the hair, we have to throw the compiled theoretical evidence in his face.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be disgusting if he suddenly fell to the ground at such an old age and said that he had a heart attack and couldn't do it anymore?
If you're going to tear it apart, you have to do it thoroughly.
Let him not talk about lying on the ground and having a heart attack.
Even if the person dies on the spot, the word "loser" must be carved firmly on his grave.
I hope he won’t dare to go against me in his next life.
Ninjas focus on eradicating the problem completely, and the same goes for business.
"What data?"
"The progress and profits of various projects under the Ugetsu Store. As well as how many public projects we have done in various ninja villages, as well as the jobs created and the industrial chain."
"How much economic benefit has the cooperation between several ninja villages brought?"
"Of course you can." Hatake Kakashi scratched his cheek in confusion: "What are you going to do?"
Aren’t we talking about the issue of Uchiha and Shisui now?
"Tearing off someone's hair." Yu Yue showed a ferocious sneer. "Start collecting now and give me a rough draft later. Just write it roughly, I need it."
The girl, who still had a childish look on her face, had a fierce look in her eyes.
"I'm going to slap it in the faces of Konoha's higher-ups today."
It's not enough to slap the Hokage on the face, that needs to be seen by everyone, so that they don't think that this is something simple and natural after all the hard work I have done.
Where in the world is there a free lunch?
"Also, did you see any Root ninjas during this crisis?"
"Where did you see it? How many people saw it? Write it down as well."
"Root...ninja?"
"That's right. Don't worry about what they do, just where they are and how many there are."
After praising your own strengths, the next step is of course to trample your opponent into the ground.
No matter how outstanding you are, you still need someone to compare you with.
See if she doesn't tear off his shameless old face."
If you engage in this kind of workplace struggle with me, then you are really an old man eating □□.
Ugetsu didn't dare to compete with the ninjas in terms of physical strength or fighting ability. But when it comes to workplace intrigues...
It's not that she looks down on ninjas, it's just the level they have shown so far.
You can at least have a pair yourself.
She sneered in her heart.
When I was fighting with someone in the workplace, tearing my opponent's hair and future into pieces, you were probably still lying in a pit on the battlefield like a clay figure.
Although I don't know who Miss Yu Yue is going to fight with, I can hear the hostility in her tone.
Hatake Kakashi swallowed and said, "...I understand."
Having clearly realized that 'it would be better for you not to question whatever Miss Ugetsu wants to do', Hatake Kakashi immediately shut up and prepared to work honestly.
"It should be able to directly reflect how many people we have cooperated with and how much profit it has brought to Konoha. Oh, and don't forget the profits from other ninja villages and countries, as well as the orders and letters from other noble daimyos. Don't forget them either."
Although Yu Yue really doesn't want the two to end up in a breakup.
But if Konoha can't figure it out, then this will be Ugetsu's last "big gift" to Konoha.
Theoretically speaking, as Konoha is the place where Ugetsu made his fortune, it would be better for all parties to maintain a good relationship and support each other, which would be a win-win situation for both sides.
But since you won't let me develop happily, you can't blame me for being cruel.
To put it very cruelly, if it weren't for Uchiha Shisui and his team, Ugetsu could have moved his business somewhere else.
Even without Konoha, there is still the capital of the Land of Fire.
Even if there are no Konoha ninjas, there are still various ninjas such as Sand ninjas and Rock ninjas.
I believe that no matter whether it is the daimyo or the ninja village, they will welcome the arrival of her as the "God of Wealth".
It was just that Konoha had more talents, a relatively superior geographical location and was more suitable for business, and Uchiha Shisui was the first person to help her, so she had never thought of moving. After all, moving would take time and energy.
The foundation that we spent so much time laying in the past may have to be started all over again.
But I can't let anyone touch my people for no reason.
This is not a minor conflict, but a bottom line issue.
If we don't stop this time, then
This kind of thing will keep happening.
If he can use Uchiha as an excuse to move Shisui away today, then tomorrow he can find other reasons to take Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and even Hatake Kakashi away.
Then they can even go further and make decisions on their own projects.
It's always like this in the workplace. Once you make a gap, you can't blame others for tearing it into a Great Rift Valley.
In that case, your own project will always be strangled by others.
Things that can be compromised are things that can be accepted even if they are not necessary.
The reason why the bottom line is the bottom line is that it cannot be retreated or compromised.
She did say that if there was an urgent mission, they could leave their posts first to work on behalf of the Ninja Village.
But that was a routine task, not an excuse for others to take advantage of me, let alone use it to dictate .
Ugetsu had no idea what Shimura Danzo was planning to do, but if she thought she would just accept her fate just because it was an 'order', she would be very wrong.
If it was the first two months after she arrived, she might not have had any good ideas, but now she has enough cards in her hand.
Even if it really comes to a fight to the death, she is not afraid.
And there is a very realistic and disadvantageous thing for the ninjas.
Even if Ugetsu left Konoha, he could still entrust Konoha with missions.
Of course, Konoha has the right to refuse.
But if they refuse, they will be giving the duck in their hands to others.
As for the fact that "the ninja village refused the mission without reason due to the personal feelings of the ninja", if Konoha had taken the opportunity to publicize it, the negative impact it would have brought would have been enough to cause great harm to Konoha.
Anyway, if it happened to Yu Yue herself, she would definitely take advantage of your illness to kill you and beat you up on the spot.
The service industry is most afraid of a bad reputation. Although Ninja is not a complete service industry, it is not very different from the service industry in that it does not choose jobs and focuses on satisfying the client.
Especially in the ninja profession, the conflicts are very serious.
There are not only five major ninja villages, but also various small ninja villages mixed in. Although Yu Yue doesn't know much about those small ninja villages, looking at Xiaonan, she knows that the ninja villages that can survive such cruel wars and competitions and preserve their integrity must have their own unique features.
In this situation, if anyone shows weakness, there will be competitors ready to devour and tear you apart.
——At least in Yu Yue’s understanding of the workplace,
Like this.
How many competing companies have fallen in such competition.
"I'll help, too."
Pharmacist Kabuto, who was better at interpersonal relationships, understood Miss Ugetsu's purpose almost immediately. He didn't even bother to push his glasses and hurriedly followed Hatake Kakashi to work.
"Everyone else, don't just stand there, everyone should register when and where you saw the Root ninja appear."
"No matter how hidden you are, it's impossible to not see anyone moving at this time."
"I understand. I'll take care of this part."
Uchiha Shisui took the initiative to take on the task of summarizing.
Although time is tight and the task is heavy, as Shisui who has the deepest understanding of the data, he is confident that he can make a basic summary during this period of time.
Yu Yue closed her eyes and sat back in her chair, beginning to rest.
"So...what else should we do?"
Daisuke looked at Ugetsu and felt anxious.
Although he is a spy.
But he is also a member of the Ugetsu Shop.
As long as it is not for the needs of the Hidden Mist Village, he still hopes that the Ugetsu Store will be good.
The more prosperous the business, the better. After all, this way, you can get more and better promotion.
Although Daisuke feels that he has made a lot of progress, who wouldn't want to sprint to a higher level if given the chance?
Just like 99% of ninjas aim to become shadow.
Even though I know it's impossible, what if?
It never hurts to be a little stronger.
"wait."
In response to Daisuke's question, Ugetsu only uttered a single word.
Wait until the preparations are done.
Wait for the right opportunity so that no one dares to put their claws on you again.
But before this 'opportunity' came, they faced another problem.
Danzo Shimura, who was particularly tough on the Uchiha side, directly sent Gen to arrest people.
He said that all the Uchiha people had to go back, so Uchiha Shisui naturally couldn't be left out.
So he directly asked the roots to come and arrest the person.
But Danzo Shimura, who was busy with his own affairs, forgot that in addition to the "own people" of the Ugetsu Store, Ugetsu was also surrounded by the Anbu sent by the Hokage.
The Root's men came with great force, and it was obvious that they were not here with good intentions. Of course, the Anbu's men would not
Can sit back and watch.
I had no choice but to stand up and confront them.
In fact, they didn't want to get involved in this matter, but the root was too cruel and took people away without saying a word... In order to prevent Miss Yu Yue from getting hurt, they naturally had to stand up.
To be honest, this was a bit beyond Ugetsu's imagination.
What’s the difference between you and Mingqiang?
She really saw the characteristics of the ninja world, and fortunately she was already prepared, so it was not in vain.
"Come on, let's go see the Hokage."
She glanced at the Root ninja.
"Your leader can't even be in charge of meeting the Hokage, right?"
Of course the Root doesn't care about who is Hokage or not. What does your going to see the Hokage have to do with us, the Root?
They are directly under the Root and only take orders from Lord Danzo Shimura.
So not only did they refuse to give way, they also seemed to be threatening people to teach Uchiha Shisui.
Now the Anbu was not happy either.
What do you mean?
We helped you negotiate, but you guys refused to even take a step back to see the Hokage?
It's not like anything will happen if you meet the Hokage Uchiha Shisui.
Is there just a little time left?
The root is not afraid of the dark part, and the dark part is also not afraid of the root.
So the Anbu ninja also got angry.
Miss Uzuki wants to bring her people to see the Hokage. Why are you not letting her?
The Hokage is the head of the village. Don't you trust him?
Thus, the two groups, which were known for their covert operations, confronted each other in public in front of the entrance of Yu Yue Store.
If you want to leave, I won't let you.
Why won't you let us go?
The Ugetsu Store is currently one of the most famous places in Konoha, and both parties in the confrontation are Konoha's "mysterious ninjas" dressed in black and their true faces cannot be seen.
This immediately attracted people's attention.
Some people even called their friends to come and have fun.
what happened?
Why would Konoha's most mysterious ninja be confronting each other in front of the Ugetsu store at this time?
Could it be related to the attack not long ago?
Speaking of the recent major events in Konoha, apart from the new venue of the Ugetsu Store that was renovated a while ago, there was the terrifying attack that happened not long ago.
No matter what happens, people will inevitably make associations unconsciously.
There are also some brave ones.
"Miss Yu Yue, this is..."
The person asking the question was from a ninja family in Konoha, and although he wasn't as well-known as the Uchiha Hyuga family, he was still well-known.
With a strong backer behind you, you don't have to worry about getting into trouble by asking a question.
"Ah, there are things I want to discuss with Hokage-sama."
Yu Yue responded to questions from people around her openly.
"It's just that some people received orders not to let us pass... I don't know what the purpose is."
Yu Yue cleverly changed the concept.
Reversed 'the people from the Root took Uchiha Shisui away' and 'they didn't let us go to see the Hokage'.
While both result in a stalemate, the latter sounds like they have a problem.
No problem, of course they won't say that people are not allowed to see the Hokage.
This time, the Root Ninja was put on the fire again.
Not to mention that the roots have never had the habit of explaining their tasks to anyone.
Even if they explained that 'their mission was to bring Uchiha Shisui back to Uchiha Street', that wouldn't explain the question of 'why they didn't let anyone go to see the Hokage'.
Is there a conflict between 'You take Uchiha Shisui away' and 'Go see the Hokage'?
There is no conflict.
Wouldn't it be enough to just meet the Hokage and talk it over and then take the person back to Uchiha Street?
Yes, most people would think so.
But Gennin is different.
The order they received was 'bring Uchiha Shisui back directly, and do not let any Uchiha except Uchiha Fugaku stay outside'.
But they couldn't say that out loud.
As more and more people gathered around, the Root Ninjas became more and more desperate.
If they continue like this, it will definitely be disadvantageous to them.
But Yu Yue had no mercy on them. Not only did she not let these Root Ninjas go, she also added fuel to the fire:
"Suddenly they said they would take away Shisui who knew all the secrets of my Ugetsu shop, and not let him see the Hokage - who knows if there is something wrong with them."
This time, it was like stirring up a hornet's nest.
Yu Yue seemed to have said nothing, but at this juncture, her words became inducement.
Tricking people into associating 'Shisui knew store secrets' with 'they have problems'.
Plus the attack that happened not long ago.
Humans, who are very associative, can easily come to a conclusion.
'The attack by those people might be related to Ugetsu Store'——and this is the premise.
The actions of these 'mysterious ninjas' seemed suspicious in every way.
For a moment, the looks of the people watching the fun changed.
If not long ago they just wanted to watch the fun and know what was going on.
Now when they looked at the Root Ninja, it was as if they were looking at a spy who had infiltrated.
That’s right, these guys don’t even dare to show their faces and can’t explain anything, so why wouldn’t we suspect them to be spies?
Gennin: ...
Under normal circumstances, anyone who obstructs the mission will be killed without mercy.
But at this time, in public, there were ninjas from the Anbu watching.
Let's not talk about whether they can kill without mercy, just say that if they dare to do it now, people will definitely riot.
...No, even if they don't move, it's hard to guarantee that these people won't take action.
Several Root Ninjas looked at each other, and finally the one who was unwilling to give in took a few steps back and disappeared into the crowd.
They have no choice but to retreat.
If we don't retreat, there will be real problems.
Ugetsu really wasn't trying to scare them when she said she was going to meet the Hokage.
She was really going to meet the Hokage and other high-ranking officials of Konoha.
We originally wanted to discuss the issue of the multi-functional baby stroller exhibition, but now we have to discuss Shisui... no, the issue of the entire Uchiha Street.
She rubbed her forehead and then rubbed her cheeks.
But it was different from the last time when I went to see the Hokage with a smile.
This time she was looking for trouble.
Of course, there must be corresponding expressions.
So Yu Yue narrowed her eyes and tightened her lips. Anyone who saw her could tell that she was in a very bad mood at the moment, and it was best not to get close to her.
Ugetsu had come to the Hokage's office more than once or twice.
The first time was strange, the second time was familiar, she didn't even knock on the door, she went up and pushed it open roughly:
"Does Konoha have any problem with my store!?"
"I thought we were close partners, but it seems that was just wishful thinking on my part."
She took the initiative and tried to seize the initiative right away.
When people communicate with each other, whoever brings up the topic first usually has the final say in the conversation.
After all, if the other party gives an irrelevant answer, people will only think that there is something wrong with the person who answered - of course, there are times when the other party does not respond at all, but that is always a minority of cases.
, no general discussion is made.
As expected, after Yu Yue interrupted, the people in the Hokage's office could neither pursue the matter further with regard to her rude opening of the door, nor could they say anything to smooth things over.
"How could that be?"
One of the Konoha high-ranking officials answered immediately.
"Ugetsuki Store has always been a store that Konoha is proud of. How could we have any objection?"
This is exactly what I want.
"Then why would you take away the person who holds the most important information from me at such an urgent time?"
"What?"
Several senior executives were stunned.
At the critical moment, it was Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, who stood up.
"There is no such thing. Maybe it's a misunderstanding."
"Is that true?"
Ugetsu deliberately put on a skeptical expression.
She actually played another word game.
Once again, the two identities of 'Uchiha Shisui' and 'Ugetsu Store Employee' were confused.
Uchiha Shisui is certainly an Uchiha, but he is also Ugetsu's personal assistant and the one who has access to all the confidential information of Ugetsu's store.
Ugetsu didn't mention 'who it was', but only said 'identity', thus changing the matter from 'targeting Uchiha' to 'targeting Ugetsu's store' again.
"certainly."
A Konoha high-ranking official nodded affirmatively.
"How could we harm the interests of Ugetsu Store?"
He paused after he finished speaking.
"I think there must be some misunderstanding here... Can you tell me what it is?"
Konoha had just been attacked and everything was in chaos.
How could anyone be looking for trouble at this time?
Let him know who it is and teach him a lesson!
Although he was asking Yu Yue, he had actually already started thinking about how to teach this troublemaker a lesson.
"The messenger said that Danzo-sama gave the order to take Shisui away."
When the word "adult" is mentioned, you can hear the sound of teeth grinding.
"And he even refused my request to come to the Hokage for confirmation. If it weren't for the help of the Anbu and other enthusiastic people from Konoha, I wouldn't even be able to stand in the Hokage's office like this now."
"I know, it must be Dan... Danzo-sama."
The senior executive was dumbfounded as he spoke.
If it's Danzo-sama... then he really is... impossible to teach a lesson.
.
As the right-hand man of the former Hokage and the person in charge of Konoha's "Root", his status and power are higher than his.
especially……
He glanced at the now retired but still serving as an advisor to the Hokage.
No matter what, they are the ones that the Hokage has great faith in. If they speak up, wouldn't that be questioning the judgment of the Hokage?
Noticing the other people's gazes towards him, the Hokage was stunned.
No, look at what I do?
It's not my order...
"You don't think I asked Danzo to give the order, do you?"
He reacted.
The others did not answer, but their silence expressed their thoughts.
You and Lord Danzo are in the same boat. Even if it was not you who gave the order, have you ever opposed the decision made by Lord Danzo?
No.
Isn't that almost the same?
The Acting Hokage quickly said to Ugetsu, "I have never given such an order - there must be some misunderstanding. We can talk about it when Danzo arrives."
At this time, he still did not realize the seriousness of the problem, but habitually tried to smooth things over, thinking that as long as they talked properly, there would be no misunderstandings that could not be resolved.
"Are you sure we can talk?"
Yu Yue bit on Dai's word choice.
"Of course, Danzo is not an unreasonable person."
The Dai Hokage actually didn't quite understand why Ugetsu asked this question, and just thought she was too angry and nervous, so she began to doubt them.
But it doesn't matter, we'll be fine once we talk it out.
But Minato Namikaze didn't think it was that simple.
As expected, the first thing Danzo Shimura did when he arrived was to take away the 'suspect Uchiha Shisui'.
"All Uchiha must be controlled, including Uchiha Shisui."
Danzo Shimura rushed over in a hurry and didn't give anyone a chance to speak. He just opened his mouth and spoke.
As he spoke, he still felt that these people were wasting his time.
It's been such a waste of time that we haven't been able to take Uchiha Shisui away.
Everyone in the Hokage's office was silent.
Yu Yue said nothing, but turned to look at Dai.
——Is this what you call "misunderstanding" and "talk"?
The generation's face was no longer saved.
If he had
Without saying anything, Shimura Danzo's attitude could only be considered rude at best.
But he had made a promise before.
In this way, every look and every word of his seemed to slap himself in the face.
"Danzo, this matter..."
"There's nothing to say."
Shimura Danzo's brows were twisted into knots.
Seeing how strong he was, the others also became hesitant.
After all, Danzo Shimura has been the one making decisions for so many years, and they have become more or less used to it.
Anyway, Danzo always achieves his goal in the end, so what's the point of them refutation?
Yu Yue was not surprised to see the silence of Konoha's high-ranking officials.
That's why she prepared so many things urgently.
"You think there's nothing to say, so it's my turn to speak, right?"
Ugetsu snapped his fingers.
Uchiha Shisui then took out the materials he had prepared earlier.
"What's this?"
"Nothing."
Looking at Danzo who had a gloomy face, Ugetsu smiled.
“It’s just some simple data and reports.”
Yu Yue didn't emphasize the name... the thing is here anyway, so it doesn't matter what it's called.
These data represent what we know.
If she doesn't understand...then there's no need for her to bother about it.
Just stop the loss in time and start over.
One stupid teammate may be more terrifying than five godlike enemies.
As Yu Yue said, the above are just some data.
It was probably made temporarily, and the data on it was simple and messy. It couldn't even be called a complete "report".
But just looking at the words above, no one would underestimate it.
Just as the treasure does not change just because it is placed on thatch.
The data written above, especially the part about Konoha, is not something they can ignore.
Konoha can afford the loss of millions or tens of millions.
But can Konoha afford to lose the connection that was established with great difficulty?
If something really goes wrong with Ugetsu's (business), can he justify the attacks from other ninja villages?
Even if we don't consider anything else, can they endure the benefits brought by Yuyue Shop and go to other villages?
Although Konoha's top leaders often act like fence-sitters, they are not stupid.
Seeing this, I immediately understood what Yu Yue meant -
This is her statement.
…Or rather, her ultimatum.
"If you want to stay in Konoha with all these benefits, don't touch my people."
Several people exchanged glances unconsciously.
You won’t know until you see it. I originally thought that the Yuyue Store was just a start-up, but it has already grown to such a scale and connections.
The girl in front of him, who looked sick and inconspicuous in the crowd, was like a spider weaving a web, putting all kinds of "forces" into her "web" when people were not noticing.
Just one or two of them are nothing.
How many once powerful families have been destroyed?
But when so many forces, each of which cannot be underestimated individually, are linked together, they become a very terrifying power network.
While cooperating with each other, they are also checking and balancing each other.
If you don't do it, someone else will do it naturally - no one wants to miss the 'God of Wealth'.
How could a ninja have anything against money?
No one would be more happy than to make money and at the same time make some people unhappy.
Especially right after the war, anything could happen.
"this……"
One of the senior executives looked at Danzo Shimura.
"Danzo, actually... Miss Ugetsu also mentioned this before you came here."
He cleared his throat.
"The Uchiha matter is important, but we can't just arrest people blindly, right?"
In fact, he was quite unhappy about the way things turned out.
——Who can be happy when a child slaps you in the face at such an old age?
But compared to Ugetsu, he was more dissatisfied with Shimura Danzo's autocratic behavior.
If only he could say hello to everyone before doing anything.
Then they discussed a milder plan together, and then went to talk to Miss Yu Yue with both emotion and reason. I believe Miss Yu Yue would be able to understand.
Besides.
But that person said he was an Uchiha...which may not be true. How can you treat people from your own village as enemies?
Who wouldn’t be angry if this happened to them?
"you……"
Danzo Shimura looked at the senior executive who spoke in disbelief.
What made it even more unbelievable for him was that everyone else remained silent about this.
With Konoha's people
After so many years of getting along, he knew very well what these people meant by this attitude.
That is 'default'.
They had agreed with their own judgment several times in the past.
But today, I am expressing my 'denial' of myself with the same attitude.
What Shimura Danzo could not accept the most was Sarutobi Hiruzen's silence.
"Sarutobi, do you think so too?"
He stared at his old teammate.
"Danzo."
The Hokage sighed.
"I've said it many times, the Uchiha are our companions, not our enemies."
If the Nine-Tails really caused heavy losses this time and the villagers were in panic, then he would probably agree with Danzo's assessment of the Uchiha.
Because Konoha can no longer afford any more losses, no matter whether that person has any connection with the Uchiha in the village, the Uchiha must be controlled.
This not only makes them feel at ease, but is also a form of protection for the Uchiha.
But that’s not the case now.
Although Konoha was hit, the loss was not unacceptable.
People did not boycott anyone because of this.
If Danzo Shimura were to take Uchiha to Uchiha Street at this time... wouldn't that be like saying "Uchiha is the murderer"?
Even if Miss Ugetsu hadn't done this, he and the Fourth Generation would still have opposed it after knowing about it.
But at least it won’t turn out like this.
"I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
Not only did the current Hokage not support Danzo, he also admitted his mistake in front of Danzo.
Uchiha is not the point now.
The important thing is to stabilize Miss Yu Yue first.
Like his teacher and the first generation, Sarutobi Hiruzen is a man who is willing to give everything for the good of the village.
Life, dignity... he can abandon everything.
Now Yu Yue has something in his hands that is extremely beneficial to Konoha and can keep Konoha away from war - at least for the next few years.
Then he would be willing to bow to Yu Yue.
...even if it means giving up his old teammates.
Both myself and Danzo...we are old.
He had never seen this so clearly.
And these old things.
There was a daze in Dai's turbid eyes.
Maybe we should accept our age and let the world be handed over to the young.
It's over.
No matter what, he was still the acting Hokage, and this bow meant that he acknowledged Ugetsu's 'correctness'.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen!"
Shimura Danzo was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
"you--"
"Danzo."
The Hokage frowned.
"Are you going to continue messing around?"
"Will you be satisfied only if you make the people of the village divided and enemies everywhere?"
In the past, you could support Danzo for the sake of the village.
Today he could also refute Danzo for the sake of the village.
He felt that although he had offended Danzo, he had actually given him a way out.
As long as he rescinds his order and no longer orders the Uchiha to be blocked in Uchiha Street.
Then the matter is over.
After all, for Miss Ugetsu, leaving Konoha would be a decision that would harm her interests.
He believed that Miss Yu Yue took out these things for the purpose of "negotiation" rather than "breaking up".
But Danzo Shimura did not understand his earnest advice.
He just felt betrayed.
Was he betrayed by Konoha, the city he had protected and nurtured, and his former companions?
Are those interests so important?
Alliance? What happened to the alliance?
Didn't they have allies in the past?
Don't we still have to fight when it's time to fight?
Is Konoha afraid of them?
Are you scared by a war?
Dai Du had said this, and the others who didn't want to be enemies with Yu Yue all turned their eyes over.
Danzo Shimura, who was so powerful and glorious when he came, suddenly became the target of public criticism.
As another party involved, Yu Yue looked at everything in front of her coldly.
Not only did I not feel any sympathy for the old man who had made no contributions but also worked hard at his age, but I felt only coldness.
Because she knows very well.
Rather than these people truly thinking that Shimura Danzo was wrong, it would be more accurate to say that they were just acting for themselves.
For such a long time, there has been no substantive pressure on him to express his position, but isn't this also forcing myself?
They want to take a step back first. As long as they, the 'party involved', say 'forget it' or 'don't pursue the matter' first, they will be able to mediate, and both parties will take a step back, and then everything will be fine.
Even if this matter is turned over
.
Although Shimura Danzo lost some face, at least he was able to escape unscathed.
...But why?
Not only did Yu Yue refuse to back down, she was also prepared to add fuel to the fire.
"I hope this 'misunderstanding' can be explained as soon as possible."
She smiled sincerely.
"After all, I still have to discuss the multi-functional baby stroller exhibition with Granny Chiyo and Mr. Kirabi later... If the exhibition in Konoha is not convenient to hold, we can also discuss a second plan. We can't let the guests who have been waiting for a long time go home disappointed."
This is a threat.
What kind of 'discussion' and 'second plan'... To put it bluntly, as long as Konoha doesn't give an answer, you can't blame her for being rude.
The top leaders of Konoha exchanged glances again, and after a brief silence, they made their final choice.
"Danzo, I know you are doing this for the good of Konoha, but the village needs more manpower right now. As the main force of the Konoha Guard, it is time for the Uchiha to play a role."
After exchanging glances with Mito Kado En, Utane Koharu took the initiative to step forward and speak.
"If there is any problem, we have to let Konoha rebuild first."
"You all think so?"
Shimura Danzo's gaze swept across the people present one by one.
I look at them one by one as if they are engraved into my heart.
He felt dizzy.
"Just for such a small profit? You don't care about Konoha's survival?"
He was obviously the one who devoted himself to Konoha, but in their mouths, he was the one who made the mistake?
"...How can you say that's just a little bit of benefit?"
Mizuto Menen also frowned.
Danzo said this as if they were receiving kickbacks.
Originally, Mitomon En was somewhat on Danzo's side - after all, they were old teammates, and he knew very well how much Danzo loved Konoha.
The reason why I act so radically is because I am too worried.
But as soon as Danzo said this, Mito Menen became unhappy on the spot.
What? If they don’t do what you say, it means they are blinded by money?
"As Ms. Ugetsuki's assistant, Uchiha Shisui has access to a large amount of information and work. He still has a lot of things to do right now. If he delays his work, Konoha and its allies will suffer. How can this be considered a little benefit?"
“You guys…
”
Danzo Shimura looked at Mitomon En in front of him with gritted teeth.
His face was filled with disbelief, as if he had been betrayed. He felt as if he had been hit hard from behind.
What's more, this attack came from his 'old teammate', which is even more incredible.
It was obvious that they were disregarding the safety of Konoha for a little bit of profit.
"Danzo!"
The one who stood up at this time was Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Among the people present, only he, who was the former Hokage and his teammate with whom he had been through thick and thin together, could say such words to Danzo Shimura.
No one else is suitable.
Whether it is other senior officials or the Fourth Hokage, they are not qualified and are likely to offend people.
"Let young people do what young people should do."
"For those of us who have worked hard for half our lives, it's time to live our own lives."
"Live your own life" is equivalent to "subtly" expressing that "you should step back."
In fact, Konoha's top leaders did not expect things to develop to this point.
But who made Danzo Shimura not discuss it with them at first, and then insist on having his own way and refuse to give in?
There's nothing they can do.
Of course, there are also people who are dissatisfied with Yu Yue.
I think as a young girl, wouldn't it be better if she just took a step back?
But the same thing.
They were more upset with Danzo Shimura who 'disregarded Konoha' than with Ugetsu who was the 'victim'.
You keep saying "for Konoha", but why can't you take a step back "for Konoha" when it comes to you?
That's right. Konoha is short of manpower right now, and you still sealed up the Uchiha clan - especially when there are still ninjas from other villages.
Isn't this just looking for trouble?
——In fact, the second step after sealing up the Uchiha, Danzo Shimura prepared to drive away the ninjas from other villages.
After all, given Konoha's current situation, how can we rest assured that ninjas from other villages will be allowed to stay?
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts. Who knows what they are thinking?
But now he no longer had the chance to say it.
Not only that, he is now in a difficult situation.
Shimura Danzo's face turned pale and blue.
But the Hokage no longer gave him a chance, and he could not hide his disappointment and said:
"Danzo has been busy for so long and must be very tired."
He avoided Shimura Danzo's sight.
The Fourth also stepped forward in time and added: "Send Danzo-sama to rest."
Saying that he was 'sent to rest' was actually no different from expelling him.
"You should have a good rest. I will let someone else take over and continue investigating this matter."
Several Anbu appeared in response.
Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo suddenly burst into murderous aura.
If Sarutobi Hiruzen said there was a fourth generation, it would be like a slap in the face to him.
Shimura Danzo only felt a burning pain on his face.
He had never been so angry when he was on the battlefield...even when he was being chased by the people from the Hidden Cloud Village.
What is the difference between being deprived of the right to investigate and having his dignity trampled on the ground?
Not only that, but he was betrayed by his comrades who were supposed to be on the same side as him...
Aren't they supposed to always stand by me and support me?
Shimura Danzo spent most of his life devoting himself to Konoha, trying every possible way to deal with Konoha's enemies, but in the end he ended up with such a humiliating result.
Uchiha Shisui, who had been watching quietly, keenly aware of the murderous intent coming from Shimura Danzo, subconsciously pulled Ugetsu closer behind him.
At the same time, there was a hint of shock in the look he gave Danzo Shimura.
He never imagined that Lord Danzo Shimura, the leader of Konoha, would actually show murderous intent towards an ordinary person, Miss Ugetsu.
Miss Yu Yue was already in poor health and needed medication and treatment on a daily basis, but now he was expressing murderous intent towards her... This was not what a respected leader should do in any way.
Of course, the others also felt the murderous intent from Danzo.
People stood up one after another. The Fourth Hokage even stood in front of Ugetsu and said to the Anbu ninjas:
"...Why don't you send Danzo back?"
Danzo Shimura took several deep breaths before finally forcing himself to swallow the bloody air.
This was the Hokage's office, and if he really launched an attack here, it would be tantamount to treason.
But don't think he will tolerate this humiliation.
...Let's wait and see.
Although Ugetsu was behind the Fourth Hokage, he did not miss this final glance from Shimura Danzo.
She curled her lips.
We should wait and see.
She didn't say that this was the end. !
