Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is wearing the robe of the Third Hokage and a Hokage hat. Under the hat is a weather-beaten face that depicts his hard work and wrinkles. He is sitting at the Hokage's desk with a calm expression and smoking a pipe.
When you open each document and look at it, you can see the calmness and majesty of the supreme leader in handling the documents.
In the middle of the Hokage's office, Shimura Danzo is thin, wearing a black and gray kimono, with brown hair and neat sideburns. His head and right eye are wrapped in bandages, and the other slender left eye is
His eyes were gloomy and deep, and there was a fork-shaped scar on his chin.
Shimura Danzo's face is slightly gloomy and his wrinkles are deep, which always gives people a sinister and scheming feeling.
Shimura Danzo, who served as a member of the elite guard force of the Second Hokage when he was young, was a man who competed with Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen for the position of Hokage.
After thinking that he failed to compete for the position of succeeding Hokage a second too late, Shimura Danzo became the founder and leader of the "Gen" in the "Anbu", a team directly under Hokage. He has a team of ninjas who only obey his own will and controls the wood.
The "darkness" of leaves.
Extremely suspicious, cautious, insidious, tough, distrustful of others, even his old friend Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has also carried out assassinations. When dealing with many families in Konoha, he always suppresses them with force.
His tough attitude made many Konoha families fear him.
"Hiruzen..." Shimura Danzo took a sip of tea, and slightly planned to talk about what he had planned, and planned to persuade Sarutobi Hiruzen with emotion and reason.
No matter how the roots were developed, Shimura Danzo felt that it was not enough.
"No!" Before Shimura Danzo could say it, Shimura Danzo's old friend Sarutobi Hiruzen refused.
As an old friend since childhood, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt that he knew Shimura Danzo very well.
"The Uchiha clan is very ambitious. Each family in Konoha seems to have been sticking to their duties, but as long as there is an opportunity, they will continue to test and stretch out their palms to steal more nutrients from Konoha.
That's how the Hyuga clan is." Danzo Shimura snorted coldly.
What he was talking about was the fact that Hyuga Hizashi gave the body of Hyuga Hizashi to Kumogakure. It was not that Sarutobi Hiruzen had been beating the Hyuga clan. The Hyuga clan had long wanted to seize more power and benefits.
It's just that this time the Hyuga clan lost the game to Hyuga Hizashi on the surface, but in fact they lost everything, but Danzo Shimura still felt it was not enough.
However, the Hyuga clan is more difficult to deal with than the tortoises when they are reduced to a retreat. Danzo Shimura has no choice but to plunder the combat power of other families and consume them in order to focus on the Uchiha clan.
Shimura Danzo feels that he has also made great achievements.
If you don't let the elite talents of their families contribute and get into the roots, these families will definitely want to test more and gain more power and benefits as their families grow.
Konoha is so big, there are only so many interests divided, and it is in the armistice period. Everyone is recuperating and having more offspring. If you don't suppress them, they will grow very fast, and then the interests in Konoha will not be shared.
There will be another difficult political game ahead of them.
At that time, we can only start a new round of manpower consumption plan - war!
Danzo Shimura doesn't mind starting a war, but at least he has to wait until the Uchiha clan, which is in trouble in Konoha, is resolved, or all the Uchiha clan dies on the battlefield.
??????55.??????
But no matter which one it is, it is more difficult, but it is relatively easy to draw their elite disciples from other families into the root and use them to deal with the Uchiha clan.
It can achieve the best of both worlds. It can not only weaken other families, but also increase its own strength. The most important thing is to use the lives of other families to deal with the Uchiha clan. It is really the best of both worlds.
"Hmm..." Hiruzen Sarutobi squinted his eyes, puffed out the smoke from his pipe, and began to think indecisively.
The Hyuga clan is a big clan, and if you are not careful, the clan will easily lose control if they think they have given a lot and deserve more, so they are often beaten by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hyuga Hizashi is like this. He has been the leader of the clan for so many years and has always kept his peace. Then after a war, he believed that the Hyuga clan is an irreplaceable existence in Konoha. He thought that he could make the Hyuga clan go further, but he was accidentally killed by the monkey.
Hiruzen grasped the problem and immediately took the life of the leader of the branch family, his younger brother Hyuga Hizashi, to make up for his mistake.
In particular, the Hyuga clan manages the family by dividing clans and using caged birds to control clones. No one can use strategic weapons like the Byakugan. Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo Shimura don't even dare to ask anyone from the Hyuga clan.
Members are treated as confidants.
I have to say it is an extremely wasteful thing.
It is clear that the advantage of clear eyes is so great, but it is trapped in a cage.
This way of the Hyuga family is too "unity".
No ruler would be happy with the Hyuga clan's twisted approach, so at the slightest sign, the Hyuga clan would be beaten to let the Hyuga clan see clearly whose Konoha belongs to Konoha.
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked himself that his handling of the Hyuga clan was already very magnanimous and appropriate.
But what Shimura Danzo said makes no sense.
In a period when there is no war, for the sake of peace within Konoha, it is indeed necessary to have a good balance and pay attention to the number of new elite disciples of each family to prevent them from having different ideas, which will lead to the hard-won peace of Konoha Village.
destroyed.
Since the establishment of Konoha Village, the invisible dispute between civilian ninjas and family ninjas has never been truly eliminated.
Even if the Thousand Hands clan takes the lead, they will become common people.
But what is very embarrassing is that the Senju clan took the lead in becoming common people and wanted other ninja families to follow their example. As a result, no ninja clan followed and they were all invisible.
This directly makes Senju Hashirama, who is not very intelligent, helpless.
Everyone has followed him to build Konoha, why don't he integrate his family into the common people like him?
The most ideal situation is that there are no families in Konoha, everyone is a commoner, and Konoha is one big family.
However, this is only Senju Hashirama's ideal.
Shimura Danzo is too familiar with his old friend who has lost his former glory. He has been the Hokage for too long, sat in this position for too long, and has become a person who only compromises on the overall situation and sacrifices everything else.
Sarutobi Hiruzen blew out a puff of pipe smoke, and the smoke hazy covered the old man's wrinkled face: "Every family is a part of the Leaf Village, and we cannot let them feel cold."
