"Asuma What happened to him?"
Kai asked, with a hint of concern in his tone.
Shibi sighed.
"Not long ago, I went to Land of Fire Capital to do something and met Asuma."
"By the way, Asuma is now one of Twelve Guardian Ninja. You know this, right?"
Kai nodded, he did know this.
As early as Tailed Beast Rebellion, Daimyo's Palace formed Twelve Guardian Ninja to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
Not only Asuma, but also Chiriku was summoned and became one of Twelve Guardian Ninja.
And the direct leader of Twelve Guardian Ninja is someone he is very familiar with--
Hefeng.
Fire Temple Predecessor Martial Monk Hall Chief Seat.
Shibi pushed up his sunglasses and looked a little more solemn:
"Asuma told me that Daimyo's Palace is instilling a certain thought into them through various subtle hints and ways of dealing with things."
"The responsibility to protect Daimyo is above all else, even this thought overrides Will of Fire."
"Asuma, as the biological son of Sarutobi Hiruzen, naturally does not recognize him."
Kai's brows raised when he heard this, and he could clearly hear that there was a twist in Shibi's words.
Shibi sighed.
"Asuma told me that this matter seemed to be tacitly approved by Third Hokage."
Kai raised his eyebrows. "Sarutobi Hiruzen defaults to the Daimyo's Palace's will overriding Will of Fire?"
Shibi nodded.
Kai narrowed his eyes and did not immediately refute.
He has always known in his heart that the relationship between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Land of Fire Daimyo's Palace is somewhat unusual.
This unusualness is mainly reflected in Sarutobi Hiruzen's experience when he took over Third Hokage.
First Hokage Hashirama Senju becomes Hokage, no one dares to object.
The same goes for Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.
But the succession of Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi was full of ups and downs.
He was ordered to do so in a critical situation.
Moreover, at that time Tobirama Senju died in battle, there were strong enemies outside, the internal prestige was insufficient, and the foundation was unstable.
If Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to take over Hokage Position quickly and secure this position, it must seek external cooperation.
Daimyo's Palace is the partner of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
During that time, the two sides should have reached some kind of hidden agreement.
Let Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly settle into Third Hokage's position.
At the same time, the relationship between the Daimyo's Palace and Hokage has become a little subtle.
Daimyo can intervene in some affairs within the scope of Hokage's authority.
Even the subsequent appointments of Fifth Hokage and Daimyo's Palace were able to participate!
This was simply impossible in the era of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju.
Is Daimyo involved in the succession of Hokage?
What a joke!
It depends on whether Tobirama Senju slaps his mouth or not.
After Third Shinobi World War this time, Third Hokage abdicated and was succeeded by Minato Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze's foundation is even less solid.
What happened in this, Kai had no idea.
However, Kai also understood that Daimyo's Palace instilled the concept of "protecting Daimyo above all else" into Twelve Guardian Ninja, which was the beginning of the fuse of the incident.
That was the breakup of Twelve Guardian Ninja.
In the later stage, one of Twelve Guardian Ninja served Daimyo.
They believe that the existence of Hokage is unnecessary, and that the real power of ninjas should be directly controlled by Land of Fire Daimyo.
They advocate weakening the power of Hokage and strengthening the centralization of Daimyo.
Sarutobi Asuma and Chiriku advocate maintaining the existing status of Konoha Ninja Village and Hokage.
The two sides fought fiercely.
The final result was that only two people from Twelve Guardian Ninja survived.
Asuma and Chiriku.
Asuma returns to Konoha.
Chiriku returns to Fire Temple and succeeds Abbot.
"It stands to reason that this matter should have to wait a few years..."
Kai frowned and thought.
"Is it because Hefeng was there that things changed?"
"Hefeng... Does he have anything to do with Kazuma?"
Among Twelve Guardian Ninja, the person standing on the side of the Daimyo's Palace is none other than a person named Kazuma.
Even his son Sora was implanted with Nine-Tails Chakra in Tailed Beast Rebellion.
Finally, he was placed in foster care at Fire Temple.
Of course Kai didn't believe it if he said it didn't matter.
Kai felt something was wrong about this matter, but he couldn't tell what was wrong at the moment, so he could only press it temporarily.
"Okay, I understand this."
"After things here are over, I will go to Land of Fire Capital to meet Asuma."
Shibi was stunned for a moment. "You want to go? Your identity..."
Kai laughed, and then his face began to change slightly in front of Shibi.
The bone contours have been adjusted, the skin color has been slightly darker, and the shape of the eyes has also undergone some subtle changes.
The whole person looked like a different person.
Shibi was completely relieved when he saw this scene.
"That's right. With this hand, basically no one can recognize you."
Kai nodded slightly.
He went to Land of Fire Capital, not entirely for Asuma.
And Chiriku.
During the time when Fire Temple was practicing, Kai and Chiriku had a good relationship.
Something is wrong about this matter, and Kai needs to remind Chiriku in advance.
Then Kai stood up and patted Shibi on the shoulder.
"Shibi, I'll be here first today. I have other things to do next."
Shibi naturally understood that the person Kai wanted to find next was Minato Namikaze.
He nodded. "Be careful."
"Don't worry, I will."
"After I finish my work this time, I will probably leave directly, and I may not come to say goodbye to you at that time."
Shibi grinned.
"It doesn't matter, we'll drink again when you come back next time."
"Hey, let's see if your drinking ability improves then."
"Okay, don't let me drink you down first then."
The three of them drank a total of two bottles of sake just now, and they barely finished it with the addition of red.
Shibi himself couldn't stand it anymore. Kai didn't feel anything, but he didn't ask for more wine.
Shibi patted Kai's arm, turned around and left without saying anything more.
Kai watched Shibi disappear.
His eyes were calm and he was already thinking about what to do next.
Meeting with Minato Namikaze, waiting for the production of Kushina.
Go to Konoha Orphanage, Konoha Medical Hospital.
Land of Fire Capital See Asuma.
"Let's take it step by step."
Kai whispered to himself, stood up and left the hotel.
