This is clearly the sharp aura that permeates the air.

It can be seen that Chi Guoguo felt a sense of pressure. Faced with the moment, Danzo's breathing was slightly stagnant for the first time. Even if he has been unwilling to admit it, deep down in his heart he is still very

He knows that the personal strength of his best friend exceeds his own!

Even though his expression remained unchanged on the surface, at this moment when he felt the slightly depressing aura emanating from Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo's heartstrings tightened slightly, but only just

For one thing, as Danzo himself said, he knew the character of his best friend very well. He had done such "terrible things" back then, but in the end he still held it high and put it down gently.

Danzo was not worried at all about what Sarutobi Hiruzen would do to him. He just adjusted his mentality in a moment, and still looked unhurried. He slowly walked to his seat and sat down.

The empty sleeve on the left side, which seemed to be swinging slightly unintentionally, caught Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

The look in the third generation Hokage's pupils slightly changed.

However, on the surface, Sarutobi Hiruzen still looked very solemn. He leaned forward slightly and said in a slightly cold tone: "The reason why I called you three here is that you should all know. This is

Iwagakure Village sent me an inquiry, Danzo, can you explain why?"

It was obviously a deliberately oppressive atmosphere.

When his eyes turned to Danzo Shimura, Mito Kadobu and Koharu, who were sitting opposite him, both looked at Danzo with very serious expressions.

"Explain? What do you need to explain? Hiruzen, I don't understand what you mean."

Danzo still looked calm and calm, unmoved at all.

"I don't understand? Shouldn't you explain the losses of the two teams of Roots? Danzo, I have said before that any actions of Roots need to be reported to me, but what about you? You still insist on going your own way! Now there is such a big fuss.

Now that things have come to light, shouldn’t we explain them? Should we continue to hide them!?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen said sharply.

"Report? Hiruzen, have you forgotten the purpose of the original establishment of the Roots? If you have to report again and again, what should the Roots do? The Roots are the dark side of the village, the most cruel cold front in the village, any

Dirty and dark things are all handled by the roots. I just followed the previous arrangements. Is there anything that needs to be explained? What's more, this still involves the spy issue we arranged in Iwagakure Village. Feedback from before

Doesn’t the strategy of Hu Lai’s Iwagakure Village in the Land of Snow still explain the problem? I sent someone to pick up this companion, are there any problems? Hiruzen!”

When he opens his mouth, it means lying. Danzo has long practiced the ability to tell lies without changing his face. Anyway, all the people he sent out have died (if there is no news, they are dead by default, and besides, they really fell into the hands of Iwagakure Village)

Here, even if you are alive, there is no difference between being alive and dead.)

It doesn't matter what the original intention was. In Danzo's view, this was originally the most normal secret confrontation between the villages. Iwagakure just planned to use this to put pressure on Konoha!

They don't need to pay attention at all.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is making a fuss!

"Indeed, there is no problem in doing this, but the premise is that no problems can arise, especially at this juncture, Danzo, let me tell you clearly, Iwagakure Village has sent additional forces to the border of Grass Country! It can be detected

The number of personnel has exceeded a thousand! And it is still increasing! Do you understand what I mean now?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a hint of helplessness.

Danzo's expression finally changed slightly at this moment. Did he really not expect that Iwagakure Village would really go to war in such a big way? If you know that his response plan failed, that is, including the pharmacist Nonou.

Inside, all the people in the root were captured or killed by Yanyin Village. Judging from the results, Yanyin Village was the one who took advantage.

There is no reason to continue to raise the issue, right?

But they just want to do this.

"Is this a sure thing?"

Danzo frowned and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and asked in a deep voice.

Mito Kadeni and Koharu, who were sitting opposite, naturally knew about this before Danzo arrived, which is why the two of them looked so serious.

"There is no doubt about this, Danzo. This is why Hiruzen is so anxious. Our defense force in Yuno Country in the northeast has been completely suppressed by Kumo Ninja, and we may lose Yuno Country at any time.

If a fierce conflict breaks out with the Iwa Ninja at this juncture at our frontline stronghold, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Mito Kadoyan pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and said with a serious expression.

"The Fourth Ninja War is very likely to break out, and we in Konoha are 100% going to withstand the maximum firepower! So, Danzo, if you have anything to hide, you'd better tell it now! Otherwise,

, it’s difficult for Hiruzen to judge the situation!”

As Danzo said, the espionage investigation behavior between the five major countries is simply not normal. When the spies are exposed, the Ninja Village dispatches corresponding support troops. Almost all the confrontations here belong to the five Ninja Villages in peace.

In normal collisions in this era, it stands to reason that if one party is exposed and the other party detects it, this will almost never be brought to the table.

If you really want to do something with this, it also depends on the timing.

This kind of threatening behavior from Iwagakure Village made Hiruzen Sarutobi, Mito Kadeni, and Koharu have to wonder if Danzo had done something to really endanger Iwagakure Village.

Fundamental interests stimulated the nerves of the Third Tsuchikage, which is what caused Iwagakure to adopt such a posture.

The most important point is that based on the three of them's understanding of Shimura Danzo, it is really possible for their close friend to do something similar. Not to mention the Uchiha clan alone a year and a half ago.

This matter is related to the face and overall interests of the village. The three of them chose to suppress it and not talk about it. But in fact, the three of them knew very well that the reason why the Uchiha clan has reached such a strong point is that the Shimura clan

Hidden's 'credit' is the greatest.

Taking this into consideration, it was difficult for them not to doubt what Danzo and the two teams of elite elites sent out were doing about this espionage incident in Iwagakure Village.

Danzo is also a human spirit, how could he not hear the implication of Mito Kaden's words, especially when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen and Koharu sleeping with almost similar expressions, Danzo frowned even more.

He snorted coldly and said: "How could I still hide something? I just went to pick up Nonoyu as usual, and didn't do anything more! From my point of view, this is Iwagakure Village deliberately deceiving me.

They directly lost eight elite members, and let the most important espionage personnel like Nonoyu fall into their hands!"

"Iwagakure Village is the one who benefits. In my opinion, this is a provocative behavior by Akoko from Iwagakure Village, and I seriously suspect that it must be related to the Uchiha clan, especially the Uchiha General.

Didn’t the previous intelligence show that the Third Tsuchikage trusted Uchiha Shoji!?”

It must be said that in this matter, Danzo was really wronged. Iwagakure Village would make such a decision. Although Danzo had some connections, it was not the main reason. This was still based on Onoki watching.

After my ninja village became really strong, I became more courageous!

I want to use the battle between Konoha and Kumogakure to make some preparations in advance!

Regardless of whether there is such a thing, Ohnoki will definitely find opportunities to test Konoha in the future, and this time he will use his strength to fight!

But from the perspective of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, this is not the case. The problem probably lies with Danzo, otherwise they feel that they cannot explain why such a thing happened!

But now seeing Danzo's determined look, the three of them looked at each other again, with a hint of suspicion in their pupils.

This is mainly because Danzo's credibility in this area is really low.

"Danzo, you have to understand that now is not the time for joking. If you really have something to say, you must say it. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to judge the intentions of Iwagakure Village and the next situation!"

After turning to bed, Xiaochun narrowed his eyes slightly and said in an extremely solemn tone.

"Do you still doubt me!?"

Danzo clearly showed a trace of anger at this moment.

It is true that he has done some "extreme things" in the past, but weren't they all for the village!?

Just because of such trivial things, I don’t believe in myself!

This made Danzo very uncomfortable, and his expression became more and more gloomy, but it still made Mito Kado and Koharu feel a little unsure when they moved to bed. This really cannot be blamed on the two of them.

Looking at each other, Mito Monobu was about to speak and continue to say something.

"Since you said so, Danzo, then ruling out this possibility, Iwagakure is most likely planning to use this incident to test our current physical condition in Konoha!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was on top of the throne, took a steady look at Danzo and said, "Unlike Mito Kaden, who is sleeping with Koharu, just like Danzo knows Hiruzen very well, the Third Hokage also knows him very well."

Danzo, although there is no evidence to prove it, when Danzo spoke just now, Sarutobi Hiruzen had an intuition deep in his heart telling him that this time Danzo was probably not deceiving him.

!

If this is true, then we really need to think carefully about the intentions of the Iwagakure Village. We can't really just intend to intimidate Konoha, right? Such a method is too inferior, and there is no need to be at the border at all.

To further deploy so much power, there should be some temptation, but it is unlikely to be just this little!

Sarutobi Hiruzen always felt that there was something fishy going on here.

Of course, he didn't know that he was overthinking a bit. Leaving Shoji aside, Ohnoki's original purpose was really just to test Konoha's depth and see what Konoha's current attitude and situation was!

It has been almost four years since the Third Ninja War ended.

Except for the slow recovery of Sunagakure Village, which was beaten violently by Iwagakure Village last year, it is difficult to have any power to make waves. The current internal situation of the other four major ninja villages (Kirigakure Village) is not clear to the other three major ninja villages.

, naturally based on the situation just after the third war.) They all have the ability to restart the war!

Based on this situation, the Kumo ninja and Konoha are still fighting so fiercely. In the past two years or so, the fight between the two sides in the country of Yu has entered a relatively intense stage, with the number of casualties exceeding a thousand.

in the case of.

Even with the size of Konoha and Kumogakure, it is a bit painful. You must know that this is not a comprehensive war, but a local war. That is to say, the location of Yuno Country is a little too important, and the most important thing is

The main point is that they are worried that the Kumo ninja will take advantage of it. Otherwise, if they really say that taking the initiative to retreat can end this local war, Sarutobi Hiruzen may also completely withdraw the power of his ninja village from the Yuno Kuni area and destroy this area.

The ownership of the area was transferred to Yunyin Village!

Therefore, in such a situation, Onoki will definitely have ulterior motives, and Sarutobi Hiruzen will have to think more!

"Testing our attitude? Is this because our battle with the Kumo ninja in Yuno Country lasted too long?"

Mito Menyan pursed his lips and said with a very distressed look on his face.
