"But aren't Shinobi just tools?" Hyuga Akira asked in return.
Nawaki opened his mouth. He seemed to have approached the wrong person. When it came to extremes, Hyuga Akira was actually no better.
"Still, since you don't want Danzo to keep controlling Root, I'll take over," Hyuga Akira said after a long moment of thought.
Since Nawaki had become Hokage, it was time for Danzo to relinquish his position as Root's leader.

"Don't even try talking about changing me." Hyuga Akira looked at Nawaki solemnly. "You should know that I don't trust you at all as you are now. You aren't the Nawaki I knew."
Nawaki fell silent for a moment, then sighed deeply. It clearly shouldn't have been like this. Everyone understood one another's feelings, so their bonds should have grown deeper.

"Sometime in the next few days." Hyuga Akira rubbed his chin. "I'll settle everything outside the village."
Chapter 363: Danzo was set up
Danzo's expression was as dark as ink.
"That brat Nawaki really has a death wish."

Konoha needed roots. Without Root, Konoha would have no darkness.
Would that still be Konoha?
"No, I have to find another way out."
Danzo's expression darkened.
Now all of Konoha was controlled by those three brats, with Hyuga Akira, the absolute pinnacle of combat strength, serving as Nawaki and Minato Namikaze's trump card.
Nawaki and Minato Namikaze now held all the village's power in their hands.
He had thought that as long as he cooperated, Nawaki wouldn't
