Orochimaru showed a rare expression of disbelief.
Danzo recommend him?
Today's sun can no longer be said to come out in the west...
It must be said that it spun out from the ground!
"People will always make progress..."
"Besides, Danzo is also old. He has worked on the front line of intelligence for so many years and also served as an assistant. If he can take off the extra burden and focus on work in his comfort zone, perhaps his output will be higher..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a smile.
In fact, Danzo suddenly resigned in the past few days. Although Hiruzen Sarutobi had expected it, he did not expect that his old friend would do it so simply. Hiruzen Sarutobi thought that with Danzo's temperament, at most it was a first-hand self-examination...
"Teacher, that's not right."
Orochimaru pondered:
"I always feel like there's something going on here! Danzo and I have been at loggerheads for a long time. I don't trust him to hand over his assistant position to me so easily..."
The reputation of Danzo and Konoha has always been excellent.
This is true on both sides.
Especially Orochimaru also worked with Danzo in Root for a period of time and served as his client.
So his stereotype of Darkness of the Shinobi is extremely deep...
In recent years, they have been constantly fighting against each other. Danzo checks Scientific Research Department's funds from time to time, trying to find Orochimaru's flaws in various major and minor matters...
As a result, he suddenly gave up?
This is simply not something that smelly and hard Danzo can do!
Kaguya pricked up his ears and listened.
During these days in Hiruzen Sarutobi's body, Kaguya's communication with her container was not very close.
Because Hokage was focused on designing development and plans for a relatively long period of time in the future, Kaguya simply immersed himself in the work at hand without saying anything.
How can I have so much time to talk to her?
As the saying goes, rushing is not business...
The self-circulating economy in the Land of Water area, and the process of gradually being bound to Konoha, various transformations of the Land of Rain environment, and further integration with Konoha. For the planning of the Rōran area, the application of Puppet Technique...
As well as a series of issues to be handled and approved by Konoha headquarters.
Such as pensions, post-war personnel adjustments, fulfillment of military merits, and further improvements in benefits.
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi doesn't like war, he has to admit that this Third Shinobi World War provoked by Uchiha Madara has objectively made Konoha extremely rich...
Because Konoha and Land of Fire have already established the dominance of Konoha. Although Kumogakure and Iwagakure have been taken over by Crimson Organization, it seems that a "two-level" pattern has been formed...
But on the one hand, many Nobles and ninjas believe that the person behind Crimson Organization is related to Konoha, and is probably a certain Senju whose name is inconvenient to mention...
On the other hand, even ninjas and Nobles who don't think so feel that an organization full of Warring States Ninja is too unstable. Maybe one day it will become the next Bloody Mist Village...
Under the promotion of Kimimaro, former Third Mizukage Mutori can also be regarded as a big star of Shinobi World.
What he did was widely known by Shinobi World, and the children passing by would laugh twice when they heard it.
All kinds of reasons add up, even if Daimyo Kujo Gen imposes a heavy tax on the non-local Nobles who move Land of Fire, more than half of their property, they still can't resist the eagerness of these people...
The reputation of Hiruzen Sarutobi is here.
If you say you want money, you just want money.
After that, work and live well, even if you don't enjoy the treatment of Land of Fire local people, you can still live a very stable life... But those Warring States Ninja, asking for money or life is often just a matter of their thoughts.
The balance between the shadow of Five Great Hidden Villages and Daimyo has been broken in the past...
Therefore, Konoha Ninja's job benefits and security can be gradually and orderly improved.
And it can provide a relatively loose reimbursement system for medical treatment.
For Hiruzen Sarutobi, all these aspects are like saplings that need to be nourished and cultivated silently. They may seem silent in the short term, but they need to be cultivated carefully.
Because time will wash away these policies into fruits that Hiruzen Sarutobi can pick...
In a sense, he and Kaguya are indeed peers.
"Finally here!"
"With internal confrontation, everything is no longer harmonious..."
Kaguya thought in his mind, "I want to see how Hiruzen Sarutobi handles it!"
She and Hiruzen Sarutobi had exchanged names, but they still didn't chat too deeply.
There is an opportunity missing between the two parties to further establish trust.
This opportunity may be a certain event, or it may be recognition accumulated over time...
But at least for now, Kaguya is more and more interested in Hiruzen Sarutobi, and in his heart these days, he can't help but have a faint hint of admiration...
No wonder there are so many ninjas who are many times more powerful than White Zetsu under his rule...
It's true that I have to be a little more attentive than myself...
Hiruzen Sarutobi did not urge Orochimaru, but clicked on Tobacco Pipe and started smoking on his own.
Orochimaru thought deeply, and after a long time, he slowly said:
"Teacher, do you think Danzo wants to trap me with the assistant position? It will delay my progress in scientific research..."
"For example, let me take over the main intelligence work of Root and the village, and contrast with him in these aspects that I am not particularly good at, highlighting his past achievements..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke, smiled and shook his head:
"No."
Orochimaru looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi curiously.
Are you so sure?
"Because Danzo will still be responsible for the general intelligence work..."
"I designed a special position for him, named 'Inspector', who will be responsible for the overall structure and training of the intelligence system, as well as review responsibilities. After you become an assistant, Danzo will still be responsible for these things."
"Besides, I won't let Danzo, who has stepped down from his assistant position, come back. This is no child's play."
"I made it very clear to Danzo, but he insisted on it."
Hiruzen Sarutobi shrugged.
"This is so weird, so weird..."
Orochimaru frowned.
This is equivalent to Orochimaru taking all the benefits of being an assistant, while Danzo has become an old scalper who only concentrates on his work.
"Teacher, can you call Danzo over?"
Orochimaru rubbed his eyebrows. "This is a big deal after all. There are some things I want to explain clearly to him face to face. If you are here, my communication with Danzo will be much smoother."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and waved his hand.
Anbu moved silently.
After a while, Danzo slowly pushed the door open and entered.
Orochimaru turned his head and was a little stunned.
Danzo is no longer wearing the classic black and white robe that he has worn for thirty years.
Although his face was still wrapped with a bandage, he changed into a loose black cotton sportswear. As soon as he entered the door, he said with a smile, "Hiruzen, are you looking for me?"
Seeing Orochimaru looking at him, Danzo smiled and nodded at him:
"Hey, Orochimaru is here too... You Scientific Research Department have produced a lot of results recently. You should pay attention to your body and don't overwork yourself." "Although your kid's body is quite special, he shouldn't be too tired."
Orochimaru was finally shocked, with undisguised doubts on his face.
How does this look like some kind uncle used Living Corpse Reincarnation Soul Transfer for Danzo?
Is this right!
Hiruzen Sarutobi watched this scene silently.
Danzo really made him feel a little strange...
Hokage defeated the army alone, but in the end, his old brother seemed to have enlightened himself.
I went back to the village to retreat for a week without seeing anyone, so Teacher Tobirama could only communicate with him...
It became like this after I came out.
"I can understand that you are surprised or even upset."
Danzo pointed to the chair in front of Hokage Office's desk and shook his head slightly:
"Now that things have happened, I won't hide my thoughts anymore. Let's sit down and talk..."
"Aosui This kid said something to me, and he broke my obsession."
Orochimaru I am really curious now.
He is disgusted with things that remain unchanged and wants to see the new wind of change blow to Konoha and the entire Shinobi World...
But Danzo, Orochimaru once thought that this guy would never change.
Just like the dried stones in the latrine, they have already been completely shaped...
Danzo skillfully picked up the teapot on the table, poured tea for Hiruzen Sarutobi and Orochimaru, and finally poured it for himself, took a leisurely sip, and then said slowly:
"I will give up my position of assistant to you because I have figured it out..."
"Since Hiruzen rescued me from the tens of thousands of Iwagakure and Kumogakure's army, even if I become Hokage in this life, I will never be able to surpass him..."
"My competition with Hiruzen is over."
"It's not so much that I'm interested in Hokage position. It's better to say that after all these years, I just want to find an opportunity to prove myself, and Teacher Tobirama's spirit in heaven proves that I am better than Hiruzen..."
Danzo showed a hint of emotion:
"But who can be better than Hiruzen? Especially when it comes to making Hokage."
"Teacher Tobirama can't do it, Lord Hashirama naturally doesn't need me to say it, so I can't beat Hiruzen, so there's nothing to feel frustrated about, even though we grew up practicing together."
"Strength, character, overall view, vision, personal charm..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly waved his hand and interrupted Danzo: "Okay, okay..."
Not to mention Orochimaru thinks Danzo is weird, even Hiruzen Sarutobi is a little bit unbearable.
Danzo It's a little weird to praise him so much...
There is a sense of beauty that even when a person is about to die, his words are good.
Danzo shook his head. "Look, we don't want people to tell the truth anymore!"
"So, I won't argue."
"As Teacher Tobirama said, when you encounter a problem, you should look at yourself calmly, so that you can find the optimal solution to the dilemma. Always thinking about competition will cause the meaningless internal friction that Hiruzen said..."
Danzo took a sip of tea:
"Even if you put aside the competition between me and Hiruzen, I am not suitable to be Hokage..."
"Konoha's plate is getting bigger and bigger. It needs a Hokage that is recognized by all forces and has sufficient strength and resources to come to power in order for it to continue to operate efficiently."
"Aosui's evaluation of me is very accurate..."
As soon as Aosui and Danzo were mentioned, expressions of relief appeared on their faces:
"Teacher Tobirama has always positioned me as the Hiruzen knife. I'm pretty good at it."
"And how can a knife that always cuts people do Hokage?"
"Hokage needs to be trusted and recognized by everyone, so that we can build the consensus that Hiruzen always emphasizes. Do you two think I am right?"
In fact, all top students in the Ninja Academy can understand what Danzo said.
But Danzo was able to say it by himself, which shocked both Hiruzen Sarutobi and Orochimaru...
This person actually knows how to self-analyze?
Hiruzen Sarutobi thought, and he knew who was exerting force...
At first glance, it is the handiwork of Teacher Tobirama!
"Don't you think it's unfair?" Orochimaru said softly.
"How could it be?"
Danzo smiled and pointed to Hiruzen Sarutobi's seat:
"People in that position are the most fair but also the most unfair..."
"The position you sit in depends on your caliber and talent."
"If Hiruzen is an incompetent Hokage, then I will naturally feel it's unfair, but with so many facts before me, I can't continue to lie to myself no matter how unconvinced I am."
"Teacher Tobirama never makes mistakes. He is the invincible Hokage, so he will never make mistakes in choosing me and Hiruzen. The same goes for my arrangements."
"Obviously, Hiruzen is much better than me, and as his hand-picked disciple who brought you up since childhood, I also believe that you can become an excellent Hokage."
Danzo stared at Orochimaru:
"In the past, there were some things I didn't do properly. I hope you won't take it to heart."
"Sorry, Orochimaru."
Orochimaru stared at Danzo in disbelief, a little confused.
Being able to conduct accurate self-analysis has already shocked Orochimaru.
Now Jingran is still apologizing to a junior like him in front of the teacher?
It's crazy...
"I..."
Orochimaru quickly adjusted his mentality and let out a long breath:
"I did not do well enough in the past. If I find that I have gone astray in the future, I still hope that my uncle can help me." "Sorry to trouble you."
Orochimaru used the name he only occasionally called Danzo about thirty years ago...
"Uncle Master'!"
Because logically speaking, they are all members of Hokage Faction...
"Okay, I also have something to trouble you with." Danzo extended his hand to Orochimaru: "But don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. It's about scientific research on ninjutsu."
Orochimaru hesitated slightly. "Okay!"
The two people held their hands together tightly and shook them vigorously.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at this scene with emotion.
It has to be Teacher Tobirama!
As for Education Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi has put in a lot of effort over the years. Although it can't be said to have had little effect, it hasn't made him fundamentally change.
It is difficult to change a person, especially for someone like Danzo.
Not to mention the subtle relationship between them, which makes Danzo subconsciously resist Hiruzen Sarutobi.
But Tobirama obviously has a special attack on Danzo. Even if he turns into a Uchiha, his second apprentice cannot find the palm of First Darkness of the Shinobi...
Poor Danzo has been played by Tobirama for two lifetimes.
"Under your guidance, Koharu and Yan are also preparing to step down from their responsibilities as consultants. From now on, they will be responsible for some of the Administrative Department's affairs and focus on logistics work."
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Danzo and said:
"So, Konoha's top management is going to undergo a major change."
"It's time for the next generation of ninjas to take on more responsibilities..."
Orochimaru nodded slowly.
Although he is not very interested in the position of assistant, because he is so comfortable living in the Scientific Research Department, and he only needs to roam freely in the ocean of research...
However, after seeing the various reactions of Hiruzen Sarutobi's solo breakthrough, Orochimaru is keenly aware that there is a problem with his idea. Because the teacher's prestige in Konoha is still increasing at a very high rate.
So in this case, if he wants to take over one day, he must make preparations in advance.
At least the fact that he is the next generation Hokage must be known to all Konoha series and even all Shinobi World ninjas at a relatively early point in time...
In this way, we can slowly accumulate our own prestige, minimize internal friction when becoming Hokage, and take over the burden of Konoha.
The size of Konoha no longer supports the matter of "airborne Hokage"...
As the village has developed to this day, Hiruzen Sarutobi's prestige and status combined with his master-disciple relationship with Orochimaru have formed a very strange phenomenon.
That is, generally speaking, a position like Hokage often has a mood of both cooperation and confrontation with the next generation of successors. It is also the so-called "Crown Prince', which is not easy to be...
If you go too far and gain prestige, you will suffer the suspicion of the "emperor".
But if you do nothing, it is a sign of incompetence, and you are even more ruined.
But Orochimaru is different.
What he has to do now is to gather his own team as much as possible, and try to make his own voice heard in Konoha while Hiruzen Sarutobi is still in place, so that everyone can notice him...
It can be said to be a happy trouble.
"I can't just wallow in the Scientific Research Department, I have to stand up..."
"I carry not only my own ideals, but also the expectations of my teacher. My teacher has protected me from wind and rain. To this day, I always want to let others understand that my teacher's choice is not wrong..."
"I am the teacher's strongest apprentice!"
Orochimaru Such thoughts crossed his mind.
Not to mention how many years it will take him to become Hokage, but at least he must submit a perfect answer sheet, which naturally includes the preparation work before becoming Hokage.
He wants to build a perfect set of templates with Hiruzen Sarutobi.
It is for future generations to learn from, so that Hokage and his successors can follow suit.
Get on the horse and give him a ride.
Like Tobirama, who asked Hiruzen Sarutobi to be Hokage or something...
Orochimaru expresses gratitude and insensitivity.
Even though he respected "Tobirama Faction', the ancestor of scientific research, this decision was still too bad.
As Hokage, considering the orderly inheritance of the next generation, it is also an extremely important sector. It is also one of the responsibilities brought by Haori. "The senior seats of Konoha are currently four people..."
"First, initially expand to five people. Due to the addition of Kirigakure and Amegakure, the number of Konoha Committee Member will also need to be appropriately increased. Regarding this, Orochimaru, please communicate with the Administrative Department and give me a proposal."
"As for the new consultant candidates..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said softly, "Just choose Sakumo, Tsunade and Isshin!"
"I talked to Tenzo, let Isshin do it for a few years, and then replace him or Hizashi..."
Let Uchiha and Hyuga both have someone who can become a "consultant" for once.
For example, after Danzo, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu step down, Hiruzen Sarutobi will retain most of their previous benefits, and you are very welcome to participate in meetings.
Therefore, it will be a very important thing for a "Konoha consultant" to appear in the Ninja Clan in the future.
Not only Uchiha and Hyuga, but also other Ninja Clan...
But there is no rush. With the development of Konoha and the contributions of all races, Hiruzen Sarutobi or the future Hokage will be arranged in an orderly manner and promoted step by step.
I chose Uchiha first because this family is really full of talents.
There are four Mangekyō Sharingans in the village: Fugaku, Isshin, Tomie, and Obito, as well as Shisui who has a great future.
The next generation also has two good seedlings, Weasel and Sasuke.
Although Hyuga's contribution is also great, most of the clan members are stationed in intermediate positions, with Byakugan's "functionality" and "stability" playing a role.
Compared with an unreasonable existence like Uchiha Mangekyō Sharingan, it is still a little less interesting...
Therefore, when Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tenzo asked Isshin to be the consultant first, Hyuga Clan Head did not feel any resistance. On the contrary, he felt warm that Hokage could personally comfort him...
Tenzo can't do anything about it.
I can only sigh, who is Hyuga Clan but not a genius like Uchiha?
After all, our ancestors produced Asura of Shinobi...
"Tsunade?" Orochimaru frowned slightly. "This..."
Danzo also looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with some surprise.
"The first is the transitional period. Choosing Tsunade is a sure-fire choice. You both understand this."
Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and looked at Danzo and Orochimaru in turn:
"Secondly, as Hokage, sometimes we need people around us to sing the opposite. As long as the starting point is good and there are not too many bad intentions, then it can be regarded as a valuable asset."
"For example Danzo..."
"Before I do something, because of his presence, I often need to think about what angle he will criticize from, and review it again to check for omissions..." Otherwise, I will be told "Hiruzen You will regret it," but it is very annoying. Yes, my office door used to be replaced every two months..." Hiruzen Sarutobi imitated Danzo's voice perfectly, and even pushed and pulled the drawer, replacing the process of "slamming the door."
Orochimaru and Danzo laughed together...
Hokage has quite a sense of humor.
But Danzo smiled, but the feeling in his heart was a bit complicated.
If I am not lying to myself, in the past most of the time he was just looking for trouble with Hiruzen.
But is it seen as motivation for him to get better?
Monkey, you guy...
"In a sense, Tsunade represents the position of Danzo. Although she is not as capable of dirty work as Danzo, but in terms of speaking up, she is as good as our Darkness of the Shinobi..."
Orochimaru nodded with a dark face:
"She dares to say anything! Not to mention that Lord Hashirama is still in the village, and there is Lady Mito!"
"Learn to train with weights, kid..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his eyebrows: "If you listen to both, you will be enlightened, if you listen to one side, you will be dark. When Tsunade can't find your fault, then you are considered successful." "Hizashi, you have to learn to use it, he has great potential."
"Kirigakure and Amegakure, after you become an assistant, you will show your face from time to time. If you need to contact any ninja, you can do it yourself. If you need resources and help, tell me..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said seriously to Orochimaru:
"Don't be afraid of bothering me. Hokage It's the first time for everyone, and the same goes for assistants. Just find the problem and solve it. Don't get into trouble..."
"As my students, don't have the idea of 'putting aside the teacher and starting a business independently to prove yourself'. I am your teacher and one of your resources."
Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously upon hearing this.
Who met such a good teacher?
So hard to guess...
It seems to be himself!
Danzo sighed in his heart.
Aosui has already told him...
Just like Tobirama has already chosen Hiruzen, Hiruzen has already anchored Orochimaru.
The outcome was determined long ago.
The reason why he is unwilling is that he is still unwilling to face reality.
Thinking back, Danzo realized that Tobirama had made it clear to him decades ago and had not given him any ambiguous hints. It was just wishful thinking on his part...
"Orochimaru, I have a favor to ask you."
Danzo calmed down and spoke in a deep voice.
"You said, Uncle Danzo..." Orochimaru's heart moved and he said very respectfully.
In the past, the two people were purely attacking each other without any interest...
But things are different now. We have to leave the business of praising others...
"I am very interested in Cursed Seal. I would like to ask you to customize a Cursed Seal for me based on my cells that can pull Natural Energy as much as possible, and a Hashirama Cells that can increase the upper limit of my Chakra..."
"It's not that we need to absorb Natural Energy into our body, we just need to be able to induce it. I wonder if Hiruzen can't learn Sage Mode? I'll try to find out if I can find the crux of the problem that he can't sense..."
Danzo coughed lightly.
This is a lie!
In fact, Danzo does not think that Hiruzen Sarutobi cannot learn Sage Mode.
Even at this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi really couldn't sense Natural Energy. Danzo also had an inexplicable firm belief in his heart, feeling that his brother would definitely be able to learn...
And it's the same as Senju Hashirama, you can wake up one morning and slap your forehead...
The reason why we need to study Natural Energy is that Danzo and Tobirama agreed to study an ultimate Forbidden Technique that can protect Konoha and put it on his body.
Using the frame of Hashirama Cells as the backbone, plus the traction mechanism of Natural Energy Explosion Technique and Wind Release Chakra Typhoon Eye Style of the Tsuchigumo Clan... and finally using the enhanced version of the Four-Symbols Seal technique as the restriction, let as many Natural Energy as possible detonate in the closed field, to the point where even the space is shattered!
The idea behind this move is that when Konoha encounters an invincible enemy, it can use the technique to die with the opponent to defend the home that everyone has hard won and built step by step...
The idea of this technique is very bold, and only people like Tobirama can come up with it.
There are extremely high requirements for the firmness of will and Wind Release's attainments. Looking at Konoha, only Danzo can do it...
In other words, he is the most suitable to practice.
"It's not necessary, Danzo..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said doubtfully, "Don't worry, I don't pursue Sage Mode excessively. If I don't, I won't. I just want to learn something else..."
"And maybe one day I will be enlightened? It's impossible to say."
The unique Cursed Seal will put a burden on the body just by listening to it.
If possible, Hiruzen Sarutobi still hopes that Danzo can live a peaceful semi-retirement life and stop tormenting himself...
"No, Hiruzen."
"I can promise you anything, except this one."
Danzo's attitude suddenly became extremely determined, as if he had turned into the assistant Hokage who always found trouble with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and said firmly, "You have nothing to do with this matter, and don't interfere with me!"
"This is my private matter."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned and said speechlessly, "Okay, I'll listen to you..."
Why did you suddenly get sick again?
What Hiruzen Sarutobi doesn't know is that Danzo's obsession has changed from "becoming a Hokage that surpasses Hiruzen" to "Konoha was assisted by Hokage, the strongest one... After Hiruzen Sarutobi rescued him, Danzo returned to the village and was scolded by Tobirama.
"A Raikage and Tsuchikage are worthy of you doing this? Are you so worthless!'
"There are all kinds of enemies behind Shinobi World. The leader of Crimson Organization alone is troublesome enough. What if he is not Senju Tobirama?" "Without Crimson Organization, there will be other organizations!"
"If you want to do it, do it better. Don't be inferior to your Root member Might Duy!'
From that moment on, Danzo truly understood.
Will of Fire who understands that the sequence is guardian!
Regarding his position in the village, he started to compare himself with Might Duy who controlled Eight Inner Gates Gate of Death Formation. This was also in line with the belief that "ninjas should die on the battlefield" that he believed in since he was a child.
Hiruzen cannot die, absolutely not.
So if one day you encounter an unexplainable enemy, Danzo will rush in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi and use this move to take the opponent away first, or at least seriously injure him...
So that Hiruzen Sarutobi can safely deal with the opponent.
"I understand, uncle."
Orochimaru nodded seriously. "I will do my best to help you, don't worry!"
Hearing this, Danzo breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart, and said with a smile:
"Thank you then, Orochimaru."
Danzo smiled like this, which made Orochimaru stunned for a moment.
He suddenly recalled what Danzo looked like when he was young...
Seems to look okay?
At least it's not as eerie as it is now...
"Does love come from the heart?"
Although Orochimaru really didn't want to admit it, Danzo, who had removed the assistant of Hokage, looked much more pleasing to him than before. "Teacher, you said before The recruitment of villagers' classics has really helped in the study of Dragon Vein... Maybe our Land of Fire and Konoha folk really have experts..."
Orochimaru took out a classic, which was his original intention here today. "According to analysis, this classic comes from a thousand years ago and contains some ancient sayings about manipulating Dragon Vein."
"Combined with Rōran's techniques, Dragon Vein has been initially used in the process of Informatization. However, it is worth noting that this may disrupt time and space..."
Orochimaru said seriously.
"Disrupting time and space?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned. "What is this?"
Danzo on the side couldn't help but look at him sideways.
Time and space have always been mysterious and mysterious things.
"It's only possible, because it is recorded in the classics that in ancient times, someone used Dragon Vein to travel from the future..." "Our mining of Dragon Vein will cause energy fluctuations."
Orochimaru slightly shook the book in his hand: "The knowledge about Dragon Vein recorded in this book has been verified by me to be correct." "So I think the possibility of visitors from different time and space is not small and deserves our attention."
Orochimaru smiled:
"According to the cases in this classic, I made an estimate of the fluctuations caused by the village's mining of Dragon Vein. If there are really visitors from different time and space, there will be about twenty years of generation difference between us..."
"To be honest, teacher, I'm actually quite looking forward to what I will look like in parallel time and space..."
As for how this Dragon Vein classic came about...
Naturally, a certain enthusiastic resident Konoha Inner Ring, Mr. Otsutsuki Ichiraku, made an effort...
"As mentioned above, each time and space is independent, and they only occasionally communicate with each other due to extremely rare natural phenomena." "At the beginning, each time and space is like a complete seed, like our undifferentiated cells, but it will gradually become different as it grows."
Orochimaru is obviously very interested in this:
"It is possible that it is exactly the same as our time and space, but it is normal to be completely different, but the high probability is that it is specious and different."
"Tomie's Mangekyō Sharingan Dōjutsu also confirmed this."
"For example, the teacher did not become Hokage, but Uncle Danzo took over..."
Orochimaru made a joke:
"Or maybe I'm a woman or something... But I believe that Konoha in other time and space will be very united, so it shouldn't be a big problem." "Forget it, I'm afraid I can't compete with Hiruzen in other time and space, so I won't argue in this regard."
Danzo also laughed and waved his hand quite freely, "Put it down!"
"As for your gender, it doesn't matter. I always thought you could switch it at will..." Danzo glanced at Orochimaru and said faintly.
Orochimaru smiled noncommittally.
This Danzo is really right...
Hiruzen Sarutobi fell into thinking.
Visitors from another time and space...
For Hiruzen Sarutobi, what he is considering is whether he can obtain further information about "Deus ex Machina' from them... As for people from the future, he must find ways to cooperate with them.
The technology and ninjutsu developed there may be complementary and helpful to our own Konoha.
"Huh?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly thought of a question.
Does Konoha from another time and space count as his "Konoha'?
For example, by providing limited support to the opponent in one hand, Konoha from another time and space becomes relatively better. Can this be converted into his personal talent? But this idea is somewhat conceptual and is too far away from the current reality.
Hiruzen Sarutobi No further divergent thinking.
We still have to wait until the other party actually comes before we can do research...
Utopias mean little.
"Rōran area can further pour resources into it."
"Orochimaru, you can arrange this..."
"As for your appointment and that of others, there will be a meeting tomorrow and then it will be announced."
Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. "A person who travels a hundred miles is only half a mile. Although Konoha has achieved some results at this stage, we cannot relax yet..."
"The mysterious Crimson Organization has appeared, and it is still unknown whether there are other unknown forces behind them." Danzo and Orochimaru nodded seriously and said in unison, "Yes, Hokage!"
And at this time.
Anbu and Five-Tails knocked on the door.
As soon as this Little Horse saw Hiruzen Sarutobi, it ran over like a joy, raising its pure white tail:
"I want to join Konoha!"
"However, I don't want to be anyone's Jinchuriki. Can I be your companion? I can provide you with Chakra, and you can ride it during battle..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi blinked and nodded slowly.
It seems interesting to raise a Little Horse?
Moreover, this is also in line with Hiruzen Sarutobi's wishes.
There is a highly mobile Tailed Beast dedicated to the combat support of Hokage. One plus one is greater than two...
Nowadays, there is no shortage of Jinchuriki among Konoha.
Before that, Koharu and Mito Kadeni suggested that Danzo become a five-tailed jinchūriki, which would not only strengthen the darkness of Shinobi, but also allow Danzo to transform into a tailed beast to assist Sarutobi Hiruzen in battle...
Lord Hokage rarely can't hold back, but he really couldn't hold back on this proposal.
Is this true?
Danzo also rejected this proposal, but mainly because he wanted to practice "Heaven and Earth Longevity' Forbidden Technique, Five-Tails Chakra was an interference item for him.
Not because of anything else...
"By the way, do you eat grass? Can you eat paper?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi asked curiously.
"It's edible..." Five-Tails nodded naturally.
"Then try this..." Hiruzen Sarutobi found the file to be destroyed and handed it to Five-Tails: "If you can't accept it, forget it, don't force it."
Five-Tails blinked and completely digested the paper in an instant. "Sweet..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed, "Okay! Then you can work with me from now on..."
Hokage sometimes finds it boring to be alone all the time.
Although there is a mysterious woman in his body, Kaguya has been under intense observation recently, competing with Hiruzen Sarutobi for patience. They cannot communicate with each other too much in a day, otherwise they will appear to have lost the initiative...
Several people and One-Tail beast chatted with each other for a while.
Orochimaru left first.
When Danzo walked to the door, he suddenly looked back at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said softly:
"I'm leaving, Hiruzen!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi was startled. "Well, let's go!"
Danzo slowly opened the door.
Just think of it as saying goodbye in advance...
If Bi Jing really used this technique one day, he probably wouldn't have a chance to speak...
So far.
After Third Shinobi World War, Konoha officially entered a new stage...
Kaguya slowly recalled the conversation between Hiruzen Sarutobi and others.
Can conflicts be reconciled?
No matter how bad she is at dealing with people, she can still see that Orochimaru and Danzo had a confrontation before, but now they have put aside the past and respect each other...
Kaguya is thinking about Hiruzen Sarutobi's treatment of Orochimaru again.
She couldn't help but think...
If Shan Pushi treats Hamura and Hagoromo just like Hiruzen Sarutobi treats Orochimaru and Danzo, will things become different? Will the two brothers still work together to seal themselves?
These questions made Kaguya think deeply.
The mountain suddenly blows. Before the power of one person can truly sweep everything, it seems to be extremely important to learn to unite the power of people around you... "Do you want to study?"
Kaguya quietly glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was working at his desk, and sighed slightly.
Wait a moment...
Kaguya is also very curious about visitors from different times.
Maybe there is another mountain with extremely superb combat skills and decisive killing, which can break through the seal on its own, make Hamura and Hagoromo deeply repent, and fight against the elite Otsutsuki Main Family without falling behind?
If there is such information, then Shan will obviously support Hiruzen Sarutobi.
But Hiruzen Sarutobi does not have such complicated ideas as Kaguya.
Because the Kekkei Genkai Threads in his sugar has not yet reached the bottleneck, he is not in a hurry to communicate with Kaguya. The first priority for Hokage is to master Eight Inner Gates...
In a sense, the bond between Danzo and Hiruzen Sarutobi is gaining strength again.
Danzo is burning himself up...
And Hiruzen Sarutobi also needs a trump card that can burn and sublimate to the extreme.
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi is also wondering if there is a way to suppress the irreversible damage of "Gate of Death'.
This does not mean that it will be opened without any damage, but it will make the cost acceptable.
With the precious Hidden Village Shinno's "Flesh Body Activation', combined with the enhancement of body sugar controllability of "Wanfeng Palace Seal', Hiruzen Sarutobi has figured out a little bit...
Konoha Under the great hands of Hiruzen Sarutobi, the whole village, like Hokage himself, once again began to develop silently.
Everyone is doing what they should do.

Half a year later.
Rōran area.
Dragon Vein's place lit up with a dazzling light!
A strange visitor arrives as expected...
Alternate Universe Naruto and Yamato, who were chasing Sunagakure and the traitorous ninja Mukade, took a while after traveling through time and space before standing up and dusting off their bodies. When they raised their heads and looked around, both of them were startled.
Is this still the dilapidated Rōran?
Where did this come from for them!
Is this the extremely prosperous Rōran in the classics hundreds of years ago, or is it the future hundreds of years later?
