In the Hokage's office.

Shimura Danzo suddenly broke in, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was looking for a napkin, unable to react for a while.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the crystal ball...

"Ouch, are you blushing? Let me see how you are growing?"

"No, you are so annoying!"

Hearing the voice, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally reacted. He ignored his nosebleed and hurriedly turned off the crystal ball.

Shimura Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a black face. He didn't expect that after so many years, the other party's habit of peeping has not changed...

"Ahem, Danzo, you must knock on the door next time you come in!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said with his hand covering his nose.

Shimura Danzo never knocked on the door when he entered the Hokage's office. He always pushed the door directly in. Sarutobi Hiruzen had told him many times about this before.

But Danzo always agreed verbally, but never changed. This time, it was because he didn't knock on the door that made him so embarrassed.

In the shadows, Black Zetsu muttered, "Didn't the intelligence say that the Third Hokage reacted quickly? Shimura Danzo has been here for a long time, but he didn't think of cutting off the scene. Is he too involved?"

Shimura Danzo ignored Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, but said with a gloomy expression: "Huruzen, the Root has found that the Uchiha have already shown signs of rebellion!"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked. He stood up suddenly and said in disbelief: "Danzo, are you telling the truth?"

Although his old friend usually did a lot of bad things, he felt that the other party would not lie to him about things related to the interests of the village, because Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that his old friend loved the village as much as he did.

Shimura Danzo nodded and said, "The radicals in the Uchiha clan have expressed their desire to launch a coup many times before, but they were all stopped by Uchiha Fugaku. However, there are more and more radicals in the clan recently, and now Uchiha Fugaku has begun to waver."

Hearing Shimura Danzo's explanation, Sarutobi Hiruzen silently picked up the pipe on the table, put it in his mouth, lit it, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled a smoke ring.

In the smoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into deep thought.

As one of the strongest families in Konoha Village, the Uchiha clan has a powerful eye technique.

However, as time went by, the relationship between them and the village gradually became tense. Now, the news brought by Danzo made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more worried.

If the Uchiha clan really decided to rebel, it would bring a huge crisis to the village. Their strength should not be underestimated. Once a conflict breaks out, it will cause a lot of casualties and damage to the village.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew this very well, so he had to handle the matter with caution. He couldn't easily believe Danzo's one-sided words, but he couldn't ignore this potential threat.

At this time, the Uchiha clan did have signs of rebellion. Due to historical reasons such as Uchiha Madara's defection, the suspicion of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and the Uchiha clan's dissatisfaction with the family's status in the village, the Uchiha clan wanted to launch a coup to change this situation.

He took a deep breath, took the pipe from his mouth, looked at Danzo and said, "I will personally investigate this matter..."

Shimura Danzo frowned, "Hiruzen, the Uchiha clan's rebellious heart can no longer be contained. We should take action immediately to eliminate them!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, "No, this will cause greater chaos, and there are still many innocent people in the Uchiha clan. We need to find a more appropriate solution."

Hearing this, Shimura Danzo said dissatisfiedly: "The Uchiha clan has already had the idea of ​​​​rebellion, why not suppress them directly with thunder?!"

Shimura Danzo felt that he was not afraid of thieves stealing, but he was afraid of thieves thinking about it.

If the Uchiha is thinking about rebellion, but pretending nothing happened on the surface, this is the most terrifying. Because you have no idea when the other party will suddenly launch a coup!

Sarutobi Hiruzen took another deep puff of his pipe, exhaled a smoke ring, and then said: "Isn't the Uchiha still rebellious? There is definitely a chance for all this to turn around..."

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo was so angry that he trembled all over, and his veins popped up. He pointed at Sarutobi Hiruzen and shouted angrily:

"You idiot, you told the Uchiha about this, isn't this alarming the snake? What if the Uchiha directly launched a coup?!"

He really couldn't understand Sarutobi Hiruzen's brain circuit. He knew that the Uchiha had already shown signs of rebellion, but he didn't want to suppress it directly, but wanted to reconcile with the other party!

Shimura Danzo became angrier and angrier. He slammed the table and stood up, continuing to curse Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Are you old and confused? Do you think Uchiha will be grateful to you?

They only thinkYou are weak and incompetent, easy to bully! You will only make them more arrogant and domineering, thinking that we are afraid of them! "

Shimura Danzo suddenly laughed in anger. He looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a mocking face and sneered: "Haha, you are playing mercy with me now? Do you know why Uchiha wants to rebel?

Because they have opinions about your decision and want to drive you off the position of Hokage, and they will be the Hokage themselves! Can't you even see this? "

Sarutobi Hiruzen was scolded by Shimura Danzo. Even though he usually has a good personality, he was a little angry at this moment.

"Bang"

He suddenly slammed the desk and shouted loudly: "Enough Danzo, I am the Hokage! "

Sarutobi Hiruzen's words suddenly stunned Shimura Danzo, and his thoughts could not help but go back to the past...

At that time, the Second Hokage wanted someone to be a bait to hold the enemy, and he originally wanted to go, but because of the fear of death, he hesitated for a while, and ended up being preempted by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

At that time, he was somewhat relieved in his heart, because if someone stood up, he would not have to sacrifice himself.

But he did not expect that this was a test for the Second Hokage, and he wanted to find a dedicated person to serve as Hokage.

Because Sarutobi Hiruzen took the lead, the Second Hokage appointed him as the next Hokage, and the Second Hokage chose himself as bait to cover their retreat, and eventually sacrificed.

Over the years, Shimura Danzo regretted every time he thought of this matter. If he had been more determined at the beginning, perhaps the position of Hokage would be his...

Thinking back to the present, Shimura Danzo saw Sarutobi Hiruzen's angry look, and snorted: "As a Hokage, since you are so indecisive, then let me do it myself to solve the Uchiha matter! "

Having said that, Shimura Danzo flicked his sleeves and turned away angrily.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, holding his pipe in his mouth, silently watched Shimura Danzo's back as he left, wondering what he was thinking...
