Fake Danzo's Angry Tirade

The person Naruto sensed was none other than Orochimaru's subordinates, the Sound Four.

They arrived earlier than expected, or perhaps they weren't involved in many things, which caused some changes in the plot. However, judging from the situation, Sasuke will likely leave Konoha.

Naruto thought about it and decided it wasn't a bad idea. He could gain more Experience Points through this storyline anyway, so he went along with it.

After all, if he could reach 100% bloodline as soon as possible, he would have no more worries and could Upgrade System with peace of mind.

When the system upgrades every three years, and my combat power doubles every year, that feeling will be absolutely exhilarating.

So Naruto decided to just go through the motions of Sasuke's escape, give him a token chase, and earn some Experience Points.

That should be enough Experience Points for his bloodline, and he was completely relieved.

Considering this, I got up and went to the mirror to check the changes in my appearance.

His appearance hasn't changed much; his hair is still black, and the whisker-like markings on his cheeks have dwindled to just one on each side, and are almost invisible.

Naruto had a feeling that he could completely fade the markings and make them disappear if he wanted to.

He didn't pay much attention to that; instead, he took off his shirt, revealing his muscular physique.

Previously, he was thin and short due to malnutrition, but with the Saiyan amplification, he developed explosive muscles, those streamlined muscles were very aesthetically pleasing.

Of course, more importantly, it gave him terrifying power.

"I wonder what would happen if my bloodline reached 100%? I have a feeling something's going to happen."

Naruto murmured softly, straightened his clothes, and returned to the sofa to think.

At his level, the original Weighted Equipment became ineffective, so after becoming Super Saiyan, he stopped wearing it and instead focused on enhancing his bloodline.

Especially as his own bloodline reached over 90%, getting closer and closer to 100%, his eagerness grew stronger.

"How about we go out and earn some more? After all, the Land of Lightning occasionally provides 3 Experience Points. If the Land of Earth and the Land of Water also come, then..."

Naruto thought of the old Tsuchikage, his granddaughter Kurotsuchi, and the Mizukage Mei Terumi; they could all provide him with Experience Points, so it was worth a trip.

As for the Land of Wind, forget about it. Gaara have already absorbed all their Experience Points. They'll probably have to wait until the Fourth Shinobi World War to earn more.

Therefore, he only needs to go to the Land of Earth and the Land of Water; he doesn't need to reach their villages. He can simply launch a casual attack from the border area.

Do it as soon as you think of it.

Naruto seized an opportunity to fly away from Konoha. Thanks to his super-fast flight, he flew there and back in a short time.

However, when he returned home, a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes, because he encountered someone—a woman who had witnessed him unleash his power.

"I didn't expect to run into her by chance. I didn't mean to watch her take a shower. I hope it doesn't affect the plot."

Naruto thought back to that lake, to himself standing in the air, pointing a finger at the Land of Earth from afar, then landing in the lake to take a bath, and then...

"Headache. Although I forced her not to reveal my information, I accidentally saw her and she definitely got the short end of the stick. Oh well, I'll help her out this time."

Naruto shook his head, stopping his wild thoughts, and went into his study to pick up the numerous Ninjutsu the Fake Danzo had given him, thus passing the time.

Time passed slowly, and soon night fell.

Konoha gradually fell silent, and many people drifted off to sleep.

But.

The Hokage's Office, however, remained brightly lit.

The three elders, Fake Danzo Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura, sat silently in their office, looking at the intelligence reports in their hands.

Intelligence indicates that after the death of the Third Hokage, several countries recognized the weakness of the Land of Fire and began sending spies and ninjas, even increasing the number of ninjas on their borders.

The Land of Lightning, in particular, is a powerful nation that is eager to make moves, and there is evidence from various sources that it intends to attack the Land of Fire.

This outcome left the two elders in the office looking grave, and even the Fake Danzo showed a worried expression.

Although he was a fake, he was still Konoha Ninja and a member of the Yamanaka Clan.

People like Ino Yamanaka are his juniors, and he values these clansmen very much, so he doesn't want them to be in danger.

Moreover, the reason he was afraid of Naruto was because he knew Naruto's terrifying strength and was afraid that if he angered Naruto, Konoha would be destroyed. That's why he risked his life to protect Naruto.

His initial intention was to protect Konoha, and he was even willing to sacrifice the interests and lives of some individuals for the sake of Konoha.

But now.

Faced with the crisis in the village and the growing unease of the Land of Lightning, even the Fake Danzo sensed that things were getting complicated.

With its current fighting strength, Konoha is simply not strong enough to support a war. After all, Konoha is currently very weak, having lost a large number of ninjas. War would only make things worse.

Therefore, Konoha needs time to recuperate and develop steadily.

But the current situation doesn't allow it; a war could break out at any moment, and countless people in Konoha could die.

The Fake Danzo wanted to ask Naruto for help, but considering the village's indifference and hatred towards Naruto over the years, Fake Danzo immediately abandoned the idea.

But what should we do about this crisis? If the Land of Lightning attacks Konoha, who can help Konoha?

The Fake Danzo sighed deeply, wanting to seek help, but not knowing who to turn to.

The two elders opposite also looked grim, unsure of what to do.

But at this very moment...

Just as the three of them looked grim...

The intelligence captain rushed in quickly and said hurriedly.

"Elders, the latest intelligence from the border indicates that a major incident has occurred in the Land of Lightning."

"Something big has happened? What big thing? Are they going to attack our Land of Fire?" Utatane Koharu, her expression changing slightly.

"No, it's the Land of Lightning that's planning to build roads, and it's a large-scale road construction project."

"Road repair?"

The three elders were bewildered, their foreheads creased with confusion. What was going on? At such a opportune moment to wage war, why the road-building?

The three elders said they couldn't understand it; their heads were completely blank.

"Here's the situation: the Chain Mountains Land of Lightning have inexplicably collapsed, creating a terrifying Chasm that's perfect for road construction. Here's the detailed information, please take a look, Elders."

The three elders quickly reviewed the intelligence report, but after reading it, all three frowned. The matter seemed incredibly fantastical; how could a perfectly healthy mountain collapse, and by such a large extent?

The key issue is that Konoha is so weak right now, shouldn't we attack Konoha first? And we shouldn't be repairing roads at this time either.

The three elders still couldn't figure it out, feeling that something was off about the matter.

But.

The Fake Danzo felt a sense of familiarity. He looked at the intelligence captain and asked, "What does that Chasm look like?"

"That Chasm is similar to the Forest of Death, but even more terrifying."

"The Forest of Death!!"

Danzo thought of the Chasm in the Forest of Death, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.

Since the Forest of Death was Naruto's creation, and only he possessed such terrifying power, and the Land of Lightning had an even more terrifying Chasm, it can only mean that Naruto had taken action.

At a time when Konoha was in crisis, only Naruto had the motive and the ability to help Konoha and deter other countries. Clearly, Naruto did take action.

"I didn't expect that."

The Fake Danzo had a complex expression on his face. He breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a sense of Naruto's greatness.

Naruto, who suffered hatred from countless villagers since childhood, even though he endured such unfair treatment, but...

However, when Konoha was in crisis, Naruto still chose to help Konoha, without even telling anyone what he did.

Such quiet dedication and selfless protection—this noble spirit even brought tears to the eyes of the Fake Danzo.

He desperately wanted to tell the world that Naruto had intimidated the Land of Lightning, protected Konoha, and made everyone grateful to Naruto. But Naruto wouldn't say anything about it, and the Fake Danzo didn't dare tell anyone either.

So the Fake Danzo a deep breath and said, "We've weathered this crisis; we should be grateful."

"Indeed, we were really lucky this time." Utatane Koharu, also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, very lucky." Mitokado Homura also smiled.

The atmosphere relaxed considerably at that moment, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But.

Utatane Koharu thought of something, dismissed the intelligence captain, and then took out a joint document and tossed it to Danzo.

"There's something I need to mention. After the incident where Naruto assaulted someone, several respected elders jointly petitioned for Naruto to be severely punished. It seems that this time, Naruto must be severely punished as well."

"Severely punish Naruto?"

Danzo's face turned cold upon hearing this. Naruto had just saved Konoha, and now these idiots were causing trouble. This behavior thoroughly enraged Danzo.

He picked up the petition, tore it up without even looking at it, and yelled, "Fuck your petition!"

"Danzo, how dare you tear up the joint petition! That was an application from a respected elder," Utatane Koharu said coldly.

"Go to hell with your reputation! Tell those scumbags that if they dare cause trouble again, I'll kill them."

Danzo finished speaking, he kicked over the Hokage's table and left with murderous intent.

Left standing there, only a bewildered Mitokado Homura and a grim-faced Utatane Koharu remained.

"Damn it, Danzo is getting more and more arrogant."

Utatane Koharu, was furious. The kick she gave knocked over the tea on the table, splashing it directly onto her face, making her want to explode.

Mitokado Homura nearby, was also annoyed. He felt that Naruto seemed to become a completely different person whenever Naruto Danzo mentioned, which was truly baffling.

He even felt that things always got weirder and more perplexing when it came to Naruto.
