"Wasn't it you, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who sent my Young Master out to scout the enemy yesterday? Since my Young Master wasn't at Konoha Camp, how could he have acted against the One-Tail?"
"Danzo, you old dog, are you deliberately bullying my Young Master? Young Master, we won't swallow this insult. If Konoha won't have us, then we'll leave with the clan at once. Konoha might not even win this war anyway."

Liu Feng pulled over a chair and sat down, asking Hiruzen Sarutobi calmly.
