Hokage office, Third Hokage Sarutobi, and consultant Chun, Homura, all three of them have the same expression at this time - what a ghost!

With their mouths wide open and their eyes widened, they stared at the paper that had been circulated countless times and kept exchanging it.

Ever since they became Konoha High Command, they have rarely been as out of shape as they are today, but what Danzo brought today is truly amazing!

"No way... how is this possible..."

Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, took a deep breath, so much so that he almost choked on the extremely strong smell of smoke...

"Even in the Senju Clan, the inheritance of this power has almost been cut off..."

"It doesn't matter. No matter what, it is certain that this child has this kind of power!"

Homura adjusted his glasses with some trembling.

"Whether it's a coincidence or not, this is the best gift to Konoha! We can cultivate a second First!"

"Not bad!"

Chun took out the last test sheet, she looked excited,

"He has even changed his original Chakra Nature Transformation! This is simply contrary to common sense. He definitely has the value of vigorously cultivating him!"

Her eyes

"Perhaps, we can learn how to generate this power by observing him! In that case, Konoha's power will be greatly improved!"

"Don't be too impatient, Haru..."

Danzo, who was just watching from the sidelines, frowned slightly when he heard this.

"Let's talk about it first and how to arrange him in the future. We can't continue to be so laissez-faire. At least we can't let Orochimaru be his teacher anymore."

"Oh?"

This time it was the third generation's turn to frown,

"Why can't Orochimaru? He is Konoha's current top player."

"Because Orochimaru is not suitable for Kaguya Qi. What Kagetsu Qi needs now is someone who can really teach him things, not just some basic theories of ninjutsu."

Danzo raised his eyebrows,

"According to his situation, his master can only be one of the four of us. You already have disciples and disciples like Sannin and Yellow Flash as your heirs, so you won't still fight against me, right?"

"This is too impatient, Danzo."

Sandai blinked and suddenly laughed,

"We still have a lot of time... just observe slowly, there's no rush."

He slowly added some tobacco to his pipe...

As for Chun and Homura, they looked at each other with helpless expressions.

Although Sandai and Danzo belong to the same sect, their relationship is almost spent in quarrels. They have been hearing it for decades...

"Determining that he is your heir so early is too arbitrary, isn't it, Danzo."

"Now that I'm old, is it possible that I really have to wait until half of my body is buried before I can find an heir?"

Danzo paused the crutch on the ground hard, and the words "a handful of years" were particularly hard. Chun and Homura on the side both looked over in surprise.

This was the first time they heard Danzo, an energetic old guy, admit that he was an older person...

"It's enough for you to have four people to inherit your status and ideas! I don't have any until now!"

His family knows his own affairs, and although he looks good, there is no first-class strong man who can succeed him, and there is currently no one with such qualifications.

This is a fatal factor for an organization, let alone for Danzo, it is not as simple as an organization.

"The world of ninjas cannot only be light or dark. Only those who have these two powers at the same time are truly strong! He must be my heir. This is beyond discussion!"

Staring at the third generation, Danzo said fiercely,

"Sarutobi, don't tell me, you don't know what the consequences will be if Konoha is a dominant family!"

"Of course I know this, but you can't force him to inherit your ideas. We also know how you Cursed Seal your members."

Sandai frowned, obviously not willing to give in.

"He has a good relationship with Kakashi and Minato. Take a step back and you have to deal with Uchiha. He, Uchiha Xiu and Obito Uchiha also have a close relationship. How can he be your heir in this situation?"

"Since he is my heir, how could I do Cursed Seal to him?"

Danzo laughed angrily,

"You think I'm stupid. How can you inherit my ideas if you don't use your own will? What the leader wants is not a subordinate. That Cursed Seal is just to prevent leaks! You are using strong words to make sense!"

"How about you two stop fighting and let us decide?"

Chun and Homura stood up at the same time. In their opinion, this kind of useless argument was simply meaningless...

"For many years, there has never been any outcome between the two of you."

"Then what do you think?"

Sandai nodded, he did not deny this.

Although their positions are consistent, on many issues, the differences between him and Danzo are indeed quite large, and basically they can't come to an outcome. It's just that he is Hokage, and Danzo can usually only give in.

But it is obvious that this time, Danzo will not give in. As he said, compared with himself who has many disciples, Danzo does not have even one disciple so far. Otherwise, no one will ask for disbandment after the war.

To be fair, even if they don't agree with Danzo's views, the three generations do agree with their role. Over the years, the four of them have worked together to make Konoha's business prosperous, and have always maintained Shinobi World's status as the strongest ninja village. Danzo and him are indispensable.

"We think..."

Chun and Homura looked at each other again,

"This time, Danzo is right. Konoha cannot live without Kagetsu Qi. If it is really possible to lean towards it, we should agree. This is also related to our internal unity."

Hearing this, the third generation showed slight surprise, which made Danzo's face look a little softer.

"However, Danzo, you must also promise us something."

Chunhe Homura's conversation suddenly changed.

"That trick you use cannot be used on Kagetsu Qi. You can't force him to join in your philosophy. He must choose it himself. Otherwise, if he makes him feel bad about people from your group, it will be more than worth the loss."

"This kind of question doesn't require extra guarantees at all, but I promise you now!"

Danzo raised his head proudly,

"Since I want him to be the heir, I naturally want him to do it willingly. He who was born in Land of Water will not understand the importance of 'darkness', and I will not force him to do anything! If he doesn't agree in the future, I will treat it as training a master for Konoha."

"Then it's decided!"

Chunhe Homura nodded with satisfaction,

"That's okay, Sarutobi."

"If that's the case, then that's okay with me."

Sandai looked a little hurt, but since the words came to this, he could only agree.

No matter what, after decades of friendship between him and Danzo, he couldn't let the other party die without an heir. At their age, one more life would count...

For a ninja, being able to die of old age is a great blessing...

But if you die without an heir, it will definitely not be a happy life, especially at the level of him and Danzo. Whether they have a good heir is their biggest concern.

"Then it's settled! From now on, Kagetsu Qi is mine, and no one can do anything to him!"

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Danzo relaxed his face. Then he said hello to the three of them and left.

"Look, we really need an heir. If that child inherits, it's actually a good choice."

Through the window sill, looking at Danzo walking in the direction of Konoha Hospital, Chun leisurely said,

"His relationship with his peers of this generation is pretty good. Maybe with the help of his relationship with Uchiha Xiu and Obito Uchiha, we and Uchiha Clan can also relax a little. Doesn't this just fulfill your wish Sarutobi?"

"But I'm afraid it's too late..."

After hearing what Chun said, Sandai held the bamboo hat on his head with some sadness.

"I can only do my best. I hope Uchiha can understand our thoughts. As long as everyone works together, the gap between us can definitely be resolved."

At this point, his eyes fell back on the test sheet on the table in front of him again...

"I didn't expect to see someone inherit this power in my lifetime... Master First, if this child could have been born a few decades earlier, he would definitely be your disciple... Unfortunately, since your death, there has been no owner of 'life energy' for many years..."

Recalling the pair of incomparably majestic figures in his memory, his eyes became a little moist.

"He has inherited Second's Water Release technique. It would be great if he could successfully inherit your power..."
