Konoha: The King of Souls from Uchiha

Chapter 34 I am Hokage!
Bang, the door to the Hokage's office was violently pushed open by Danzo. The Third Hokage raised his head in annoyance and looked at the door with sharp eyes.

"Danzo, what are you doing?"

Bang, Danzo, wearing a white cross-collar top and a black robe with a side skirt on the outside, and a bandage on his right eye, closed the door heavily.

"Hiruzhan, don't you know that Orochimaru has accepted an Uchiha disciple?" Danzo said angrily.

"I know, Orochimaru told me."

"Anbu also told me that Gen Uchiha went to Orochimaru's mansion and stayed there for a short time."

With Orochimaru's pride, he wouldn't accept a disciple secretly, but he wouldn't make a big show of it either. He just communicated with his teacher.

"Then why don't you stop it?"

"Uchiha Shisui is a descendant of Kagami, and his thoughts are biased towards the village. With a little guidance, he can inherit the will of fire."

"It's enough for him to join Class [-] and become Minato's disciple and You's disciple."

"What's going on with Gen Uchiha?"

"Orochimaru is your disciple and a more suitable candidate to become Hokage than Minato."

"Can't you see the wolfish ambition of the Uchiha clan?"

Danzo walked to the Hokage's desk and started to take action. Due to his excitement, his saliva squirted out.

Is Orochimaru a more suitable candidate to become Hokage than Minato?
Not necessarily?
His disciple was becoming more and more difficult for him to understand, and he seemed to have gone astray.

And don’t think that I don’t know that Orochimaru is very close to you. If Orochimaru becomes Hokage, the power in your hands will definitely expand rapidly.

Thoughts were swirling in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, but his face remained calm. He slowly picked up the pipe on the table and put it into his mouth...

A wisp of fire-attribute chakra was passed along the tobacco rod, lighting up the fine shredded tobacco, and a thick plume of smoke spurted out, making Sarutobi Hiruzen's face become hazy.

Seeing this nonchalant attitude, Danzo regained his strength and was about to continue spraying when Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke.

"Danzo, although I don't like Uchiha very much, I have to say that your prejudice is too deep."

"The main force of the Uchiha clan, under the leadership of the clan leader, is fighting bloody battles on the Kirigakure battlefield. The Uchiha clan ninjas also contributed to the battle lines that ended previously."

"For this ninja world war, the Uchiha clan, like other Konoha clans, made great efforts and meritorious service."

"Two Uchiha ninjas worship Minato and Orochimaru as their masters, why are they making such a fuss?"

Danzo didn't buy it, and snorted coldly: "When the village is in trouble, every ninja should fight bloody and even self-sacrifice."

"What's more, Kirigakure has attacked the Fire Country, and the Uchiha clan, Hyuga clan and other families have not been able to stop it. What's the point?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi held his pipe in his mouth, shook his head and said, "Danzo, the second half of your words are a bit unreasonable."

"With the ninjas from the major ninja clans and some civilian ninjas, it is quite difficult to keep Kirigakure out of the hinterland of the Land of Fire."

"It is really difficult for us to ask the enemy to stay outside the country's borders. Moreover, after sending reinforcements some time ago, we also recovered part of the territory."

"Just say what you said here. It will chill the ninjas on the front line if it spreads."

Danzo was silent for a moment and then said, "I made a mistake."

"But the Uchiha clan must not be allowed to break away from the police department. Once they are allowed to gain more power, the future of Konoha will be unimaginable."

"Scaremongering!" Hiruzen Sarutobi scolded.

"I am here, you are here, Koharu Monobu is here, the Sannin is here, Minato is here, all the major ninja clans are here, and there are thousands of Konoha ninjas here."

"What kind of waves can Uchiha make?"

"Why is the future of Konoha so worried?"

"Besides, is power outside the police department so easy to obtain?"

"Not to mention whether you are suitable or not, even if you are suitable, you still have to compete with ninjas who are extremely good at the corresponding position. Is it easy to win?"

"Although the Uchiha clan has two boats and is not very upright in their actions, from another perspective it also shows their determination to lean towards the Hokage."

"Since people are actively moving closer, why should they reject people thousands of miles away?"

"Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen finished his opinion in one breath, leaving Danzo speechless and looking depressed.

Obviously at this period, Sarutobi Hiruzen still trusted Uchiha. Although he didn't like it very much, he would not deliberately target him. "Hiruzhan, you will regret it!" Danzo said angrily.

"Danzo, I am the Hokage!" Sarutobi Hiruzen responded forcefully.

"Humph……"

Faced with Sarutobi Hiruzen's "I am the Hokage" trick, Danzo was really speechless, snorted, slammed the door and left.

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head, held his pipe in his mouth, picked up his pen, and continued to deal with the piled documents.

After leaving, Danzo pondered whether to send root ninjas to monitor...

After thinking about it, Danzo finally gave up.

After all, he is Orochimaru's disciple, so he still has to give him some face. If Orochimaru finds out, it will affect their cooperative relationship and it will be more than worth the loss.

……

Time flies, and ten days pass in the blink of an eye.

On this morning, Uchiha Gen was training his physical fitness in the training ground, when suddenly a sharp and loud eagle cry sounded...

Uchiha Gen looked up and saw a goshawk circling in the sky. He couldn't help but be slightly startled. Is this an emergency summons from Konoha?

At the same time, more than one ninja eagle crows in the sky above Konoha Village. It can be heard and seen clearly in the entire Konoha Village, including the forest.

All the ninjas who heard and saw changed their expressions. The genin and chuunin secretly guessed that something big had happened.

The Jonin, who had no responsibility, came to his senses and immediately rushed to the Hokage Building as quickly as possible.

Genya Uchiha put on his clothes and equipment and rushed over.

He does not belong to the Jonin of the police department now, but belongs to the administrative department. He has no responsibilities, so he is also among those who have been summoned.

Except for the minister and deputy minister of the police department, other Jonin do not need to rush there. They need to lead people to maintain law and order and stability in the village.

At this special time, ninjas can jump on trees and houses and rush on their way.

When Uchiha Gen rushed over, there were many figures passing by in a flash, so fast that ordinary people thought it was just a flash in front of their eyes.

After arriving at the Hokage Building, Gen Uchiha did not rush in. Instead, he stood aside and waited, preparing to go in with an acquaintance.

If Orochimaru comes first, he will follow Orochimaru, and if Uchiha Fugaku comes first, he will follow Uchiha Fugaku.

Gen Uchiha didn't have stage fright, but he went in alone. Based on his seniority and age, he could only stand in the last row.

He didn't like this position.

The level is too low and completely inconsistent with his real strength. He has to stand in the middle no matter what?

After waiting for a while, I can only say that the shadow-level strong is the shadow-level strong, and Orochimaru arrived first.

Uchiha Gen ran over and said hello, Orochimaru nodded slightly, and then the two of them ran into the Hokage Building together.

Although we have arrived, it is still not suitable for walking.

When we arrived at the large conference room of the Hokage Building, most of the Konoha Jonin had already arrived, and Uchiha Gen followed Orochimaru to the front.

Standing behind Orochimaru, almost in the second row, this position is either the person in charge of the real power position in Konoha, or the leader of the major ninja clan.

Namikaze Minato came earlier than Orochimaru, and nodded slightly when he saw Orochimaru and Uchiha Gen.

Lord Orochimaru nodded slightly in response, and Uchiha Gen bowed slightly in response.

Uchiha Gen then greeted Kakashi and Uchiha Shisui behind Minato, and the two nodded slightly in response.

After another minute, Uchiha Fugaku and other Jonin also arrived, and each came to the corresponding position.

The next moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi walked out from the back of the conference room with Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadeno, and Koharu, and sat on the stone seats.

"This emergency call is to tell everyone bad news. A major change has occurred on the Kirigakure battlefield..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a heavy expression.

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.
