"Tick tock... tick tock..."
The sound of the pendulum kept ringing in the room, and an old man was sitting in the room at this time. He seemed to be waiting for something. On the table in front of him, there was a cup of cold tea that had already cooled down, but he had not taken half a sip of it.
"Danzo-sama."
A voice came from behind the closed door.
"Contact from the intelligence team has arrived."
"Read!"
The old man, that is, Danzo, trembled his lips slightly and said this word abruptly.
Among the people, the owner of the Samsara Eye has appeared, Dark Moon Squad, who has given up on the original mission and set off to return to Konoha."
"Rinnegan?"
Danzo's eyes suddenly opened and became cold.
"Seriously!?"
"Nine percent chance!"
The subordinate outside the door responded, with a hint of anger in his voice.
Obviously, the person who appeared Rinnegan believed that Hanzo was not well-intentioned and wanted to use the power of Konoha to eliminate powerful enemies for him, but did not know it in advance, which is really a shame.
Think about who Hanzo is. From First Shinobi World War to now, you can't even figure out such important information about your enemy. Is that possible? It's obvious that this guy is pretending to sacrifice Konoha's people to preserve Rain Ninja's strength.
"Hanzo, this old immortal thing, dares to plot against me. It seems that he doesn't want Amegakure to have an easy time!"
Danzo gritted his teeth, and his old eyes were even more fierce. After a while, he finally relaxed a little, and he exhaled heavily,
"What's the situation? Where are our casualties?"
"No, this is also something that needs to be reported."
The voice outside the door was not urgent this time,
"Amegakure ninjas, except Hanzo himself, were all killed, but we suffered no losses."
"No loss?"
Danzo was stunned, thinking that he heard wrongly.
But he also knew that it was impossible for his subordinates to entertain him. This news must be true. So what exactly is the situation?
"This is interesting... don't stay outside the door, come in and talk."
A black shadow floated up from the ground and stood still in front of Danzo.
"Careful."
Danzo knocked on the table,
"Hanzo, that old guy, the people he had under him were pretty good. It's a good thing if they all died, but we didn't lose any of our people. What happened?"
"This has something to do with Kagetsu Qi. Before the mission started, he suggested that our people stay behind. He was also the first to recognize Rinnegan and suggest retreat."
Heiying chuckled. To be honest, he had the same reaction as his boss when he first received the news.
"After that, he took the initiative to stay and stop the enemy, and then some very interesting things happened."
Then, he recounted everything that happened after Qi left him. If Qi had been present, he would have been surprised that what he said was word for word. Unless he was present in person, he would never be able to see it so clearly.
Soon, silence returned to the room, and Danzo, without saying anything, just sat there quietly, tapping the table rhythmically.
"Sir, do you need to check?"
The shadow asked darkly,
"Although he is your disciple now, what he did was not authentic."
He doesn't think there's anything wrong with this sentence. It's no problem to stay and stop the enemy. It's a great achievement. If you don't help Hanzo, that's even more okay. Outsiders will let him die. But if you help the enemy with Rinnegan, it's not that simple.
It's not that people are really that cold and heartless, and they are always evil towards their own people. It's just that Qi is only in the internship period now, and he has just joined the company. Newcomers at this stage are subject to the most rigorous inspection. After all, he holds a lot of top-secret information about Konoha, so he has to be careful.
"That's not necessary. I'll just ask him later. It's not a big deal. After all, it's the nature of a child, so things can be a bit rash."
Danzo glanced at his subordinates and waved his hand,
"How long until they return to the village?"
"We'll be there soon."
"Well..."
He retracted his hands into his sleeves, Danzo closed his eyes,
"That's the end of this matter. Don't worry about it. When you come back, ask him to come see me."
"Yes."
Heiying's voice was very calm. As a qualified subordinate, since the leader had made a decision, he would naturally obey resolutely. What's more, he had no objection to Qi and it was just business.
After bowing to Danzo, the black shadow was just like when he came, with a strange sway, blending into the shadows on the ground, and left here.
Seeing his subordinates leaving, Danzo showed a faint smile and murmured to himself:
"It seems that my disciple has some secrets that he doesn't want others to know, but..."
He suddenly sighed,
"It's so immature. You want to hide it in front of Anbu. Such an approach is too immature."
Qi's performance not only satisfied him, but also gave him the idea of speeding up his training. Strength can be gained slowly, but the sooner the state of mind improves, the better. Only when the state of mind improves can it be improved.
"I originally wanted to cultivate a sense of the overall situation first, but I didn't expect that this guy is more sensible than I thought. He knew how to target allies on the first mission, which is enough."
He stood up and walked around the room,
"Amegakure seems to be a little too happy recently, and he even dares to take my ideas!? It just so happens that Qi did a good job this time, let these bastards kill both sides, and then we will slowly settle the score with them."
Having a high position and a high position does not necessarily mean that you have a broad mind. Danzo has that typical mind, otherwise he would not have been competing with the third generation for decades.
"The mission categories are going to be changed. This kind of 'ordinary' mission is mainly a test of strength. There is nothing to test his state of mind. Is there anything that can make him indulge..."
Continuously clearing the information in his mind, he quickly found a suitable task.
Okay, let him go, there happens to be a personal grudge between the two of them, so it will be easier to do it this way, and it can't be better to use it to kill people!"
After laughing a few times, Danzo immediately dug out a stack of character records and started flipping through them slowly.
Soon, a record sheet was pulled out by him.
It's you, don't blame me, what you did went too far!"
The old man kept sneering,
"My strength is mediocre, but my courage is terrible. Such a stupid pig is just an appetizer for that kid!"
The sinister sneer immediately echoed in the room...
And as soon as Qi, who had just rushed back to Konoha, stepped into the village gate, he received a summons from someone sent by Danzo.
Konoha Village Another major crisis since the death of White Fang and the departure of Tsunade has finally made its first ripples...
An undercurrent that had been building up for a long time began to surge.
