After activating Brass Body, Danzo's body strength reached A- rank. Ordinary ninja tools could no longer harm Danzo's body, and his stamina increased slightly.

As for the subsequent skill, Refined Iron Body, it required one thousand skill points to activate, just as Danzo had expected.

One thousand points...

Danzo frowned as he looked at the skill points on the skill panel.

The battle report had been sent back to Konoha, but the benefits it brought were only four points.

Was the news blocked?

The thought surfaced in Danzo's mind, along with Sarutobi Hiruzen's old face.

The battle report clearly stated that he had single-handedly killed Lava Release Dodai, laying the foundation for the victory of the war. There was no reason for that guy not to suspect him.

"Hmph."

He snorted coldly. Although he was a little dissatisfied, Danzo didn't care too much. As long as he ended the war and returned to the village, these news could not be blocked at all. At that time, the skill points would increase all at once.

"Danzo-sama, the Hidden Mist people have violated the agreement and have begun to attack the Cloud Ninja," Ryoma said softly as he lifted the tent and came to Danzo's side.

"Understood."

Danzo nodded, he had expected this.

Currently, the one in power in the Hidden Mist Village is the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, a poor worm controlled by Uchiha Obito for revenge.

In order to get revenge, Uchiha Obito made a mess of the Hidden Mist Village. His purpose was to make the Shinobi World chaotic. Only when all countries are in chaos can their Akatsuki organization have room to survive.

And Danzo seized this opportunity to discuss cooperation with the Hidden Mist, as Obito harbored considerable animosity towards every nation and wouldn't allow any single one to become dominant.

Since Minato's death, the situation in Konoha Village had been far from optimistic; on the contrary, the Cloud Ninja had consistently maintained a leading position in strength among the five great nations.

As Danzo had anticipated, Obito agreed to the alliance and took the opportunity to attack the Cloud Ninja, weakening their power.

However, Danzo's money wasn't so easy to take.

A glint flashed in Danzo's eyes. Although on the surface, the Fire Country Daimyo was negotiating the alliance, he was the one providing the resources behind the scenes.

He even sent many good things to the Fire Country Daimyo to secure his agreement for this campaign.

"News from Konoha Village says you are not to leave the team without authorization again; otherwise, the Hokage will personally come to the battlefield to command, and you must write a letter of apology to Mito," Ryoma added.

It seemed Mitokado Homura had exaggerated quite a bit after returning.

Danzo smirked. He wouldn't write any apology letters. The mountains were high, and the emperor was far away; Sarutobi couldn't do anything to him.

Once he returned to the village with meritorious service, he would be a hero, and Sarutobi would have no grounds to attack him.

"Have Shisui come here as soon as possible. Temporarily leave the matters in Konoha Village to Tenza and Nono Yu," Danzo said after a moment's thought.

"Yes."

I wonder how Naruto is doing.

Thinking of Konoha Village, Danzo thought of Naruto.

Although he hadn't been in Konoha Village for long, and he considered it his home in this world, he didn't have many close relationships there. Naruto was one of the few he cared about.

After all, he was the protagonist.

And just as Danzo was thinking about Naruto, Naruto was about to have the most important encounter of his life.

Since Danzo had left, after making him declare his dream in front of everyone in the village, the villagers no longer ostracized him as much as before.

Although they were still indifferent, they wouldn't refuse to sell him things or throw stones at him.

"This is so hard!"

Naruto sat under a large tree, looking distressed. Beside him were Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji.

Except for Naruto, the other three were lying lazily on the grass, basking in the sun.

"What have you been doing lately? Wasn't the Chakra control training over?" Ino asked, yawning.

The four of them had completed the tree-climbing and water-walking Chakra control training at different paces.

Naruto looked at the leaves in his hand, troubled, and said, "I'm doing Wind Style Chakra nature transformation training."

"Chakra nature transformation?" Ino sat up from the grass and asked Naruto, "What kind of training is that?"

Naruto scratched his head and thought for a moment, answering, "Actually, I'm not sure how to explain it. Simply put, there are five basic attributes in a person's body. Because of these attributes, we can extract Chakra of the corresponding attribute and perform ninjutsu."

"Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Ino shook her head; she didn't understand anything Naruto was saying.

"What Naruto is talking about, Chakra nature transformation, should be new knowledge learned when advancing to Chunin," Shikamaru interjected, half-closing his eyes.

"This kind of training really tests talent and ability. Ordinary Chunin basically can't learn it, so there's no way to be promoted to Jonin."

As he said this, he looked at Naruto with some curiosity.

Perhaps because of the different environment in which he grew up, Naruto was the most mature of his peers he had ever seen, and also the first to pursue strength.

"So amazing!" Ino widened her eyes, looking at Naruto with some curiosity.

But she found that Naruto was also a little surprised.

"So this is the training that Chunin undergo? Actually, this was the goal Uncle Dan gave me before he left the village. If I can master the nature transformation of Wind Style, he promised to teach me a very powerful ninjutsu." Naruto said with a smile.

A ninjutsu developed by his father.

Naruto didn't say the second half of the sentence. Uncle Dan strictly forbade him from telling others about his parents, so he didn't mention the existence of his parents to others.

"Uncle Dan?"

Shikamaru woke up from his lazy state and sat up, looking at Naruto and asking, "Are you talking about Danzo? Speaking of which, how did you get to know Danzo?"

Shikamaru had wanted to ask Naruto about this before, but because Danzo left the village and they had no further contact, he had no chance to ask.

Shikamaru often heard his father mention Danzo's name, saying he was a very troublesome guy.

And not a good person.

This was his father's evaluation, but Shikamaru had only met Danzo twice, so he didn't have any ill feelings towards him.

But he was afraid that his approach to Naruto was for some purpose.

Because of his parents?

Two people who met by chance, Uncle Dan was so kind to him after only one meeting.

Shikamaru was very smart, and he should be able to see through it if he tried to fool him.

If he wasn't honest with his friends, would he lose their trust?

Naruto's face stiffened, he didn't know how to explain how he met Uncle Dan.
