The remaining three monsters.
A monster with eagle-like wings hovered in the sky, its human eyes like eagles frantically looking for its prey.
"Damn, what is this?"
Below, a Sunagakure ninja is hiding behind a boulder, not daring to breathe.
And you can still vaguely hear the flapping of wings.
"Damn! It seems to have seen us, run!"
"No!! Don't go out"
The ninja just wanted to stop his teammate, but the ninja was already frightened and went insane.
"Run!!"
He yelled and ran towards the dense forest without looking back.
"Idiot!" he cursed.
But he found that the monster seemed to be flying towards his teammates.
"Heh..."
"No, no, I don't want to die yet!"
The other side.
A monster that looked like a tiger, lying on all fours, was attacking the candidates crazily.
"Ah! Shikamaru, what kind of monster is this?"
Ino was so frightened that he shook Shikamaru's shoulders back and forth, signaling him to think of a solution quickly.
"It's really troublesome, don't make any noise!"
A group of them hid in a tall tree, looking at the tiger monster below in shock.
The grumpy Ya next to him shouted to his teammates.
"Hey! Shino Let your bug go down and bite it!"
Upon hearing this request, Shino just pushed up his glasses and said lightly.
"Akamaru can bite too."
"... You guy."
Hearing this answer, the corners of Ya's mouth twitched, and Akamaru, who was hiding in his clothes, also barked in dissatisfaction.
"Um... how about we go to the tower to find someone to surround us first?"
A soft female voice whispered suggestions to the five people.
Periphery.
A monster with a strong head and four legs that looked like a spider successfully jumped out of the fence with a single jump.
The ninjas guarding the fence immediately discovered this non-human thing.
"Nani? What kind of monster is this?"
"Report to Lord Anko quickly!!!"
office.
"Nani? You said a monster ran out of the examination room?"
"Yes, Lord Anko! He has been killed by us now."
An examiner straightened his back and reported to the chief examiner in front of him with a serious face.
But that's about it.
"Report to Master Anko! A Hidden Grass Village ninja suspected to be a candidate was found outside the examination room!"
At this moment, a young ninja suddenly pushed away the people in the office and loudly reported.
After hearing this, Anko slumped in his chair with a look of shit on his face, rubbed his brows, and waved to the man.
"I know, you guys, now, immediately! Immediately! Assemble people to go inside and investigate, and we will set off in 5 minutes!"
After they both left and closed the door, Anko breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that his position was not guaranteed.
She touched her neck and felt a little warm.
At the same time, in a dark Batcave that seemed to have no money to pay the electricity bill, there was a man with a bandage on his body, only one eye as sharp as an eagle, and a sinister expression.
He was facing away from his men, listening to their reports as if he was the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Sir Danzo, a lot of Sunagakure ninjas have recently entered my country Konoha, suspected of having invasion purposes."
"Do I need my subordinates to summon people to expel them or destroy them?"
Aburame Ryoma knelt on one knee and respectfully reported the information about the abnormal entry of the ninja Sunagakure to the figure with his back turned.
When Shimura Danzō heard the news, his eyes looked even more gloomy against the dim Kakkō.
But there was an imperceptible sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Invasion." His voice was low and hoarse, echoing in this closed space.
"Sarutobi is really stupid. I said there would be dark rats coming to eat Konoha.
But this old guy still naively believes that allies will keep their promises and turn a blind eye to potential threats?!"
He turned around slowly, and there was no longer contempt in his eyes, but the pursuit of him for more than ten years and the longing for Hokage Position.
A perfect plan quickly formed in his mind.
Perhaps this Sunagakure invasion is also an opportunity for him.
He now needs to wait and see what happens, and needs the other party to complete this plan, or even... add fuel to the flames!
"Give me orders."
Danzo's voice was unmistakable.
" All members of Root will immediately enter the highest state of combat readiness, assemble secretly, and be dispersed at strategic locations in the village on standby.
But... without my direct instructions, no one may act rashly, especially no one shall interfere with any actions of Sunagakure."
Aburame Ryoma's body trembled slightly, as if he understood something, but he didn't say much, and just bowed more respectfully.
"Yes! I understand!"
When he was about to leave, Danzo added another sentence.
"By the way, interfere with Anbu of Sarutobi, and be sure not to let him know the movements of Sunagakure."
Upon hearing these words, he quickly turned around and bowed before Body Flicker Technique left.
After Aburame Ryoma left, the dark bat cave returned to silence again.
The only sounds left were Shimura Danzō's heavy breathing and the creaking sound of the crutch he held as he gradually exerted more force.
After a long time, he finally stood up, leaning on a cane, and walked step by step to a cabinet. He carefully opened a secret compartment and wanted to take out the items he had treasured for a long time.
There was only a sound of gears turning, and after another click, a hidden compartment popped out of the cabinet.
And placed in the center of the hidden compartment is the Hokage bamboo hat that he has treasured for a long time.
He gently touched the Hokage bamboo hat embroidered with the word "fire" and carefully put it on his head. Then he turned around and sat back on the seat.
He raised his head and squinted his eyes, imagining his future scenes.
Name.
From today on, you are Fifth Hokage.
Ordained by God... it was a mistake.
When you are ordered by Hokage Position, you must bear your due responsibilities.
The screen changes.
Danzo stood on the Hokage building, looking at Hokage Rock being carved in the distance and smiled with satisfaction.
"Finally... it's time to wait for this moment." He opened his eyes and murmured to himself.
His fingers brushed the word "fire" on the bamboo hat.
