It turned out that after the Third Generation returned from the Land of Fire, Danzo, unwilling to accept it, used all his means and resources to launch a political attack on the Third Generation again.
I don't know what method he used to change the tone of the other two advisors, Mito Kadeni and Koharu Koharu, and finally forced the third generation to step down as Hokage and reconsider electing a new Hokage.
However, because the new Hokage is chosen, it is usually appointed by the former Hokage.
Therefore, although the third generation is forced to abdicate, he still has the right to decide who will be the next Hokage.
Walking into the Hokage's office, in addition to the three generations, Li Chuan also saw Danzo, Mito Kabuto, Koharu, Kurenai and Asuma.
"teacher."
Li Chuan said hello to the third generation, and then nodded to the others.
His status is rather special. In addition to being the fourth disciple of the Third Generation, he is also the prince of the Fire Country. Therefore, except for the Third Generation, no one else has a higher status than him. A nod in terms of etiquette is enough.
"As long as you're fine, tell me what happened next."
Sandai smiled kindly and then said.
Everyone immediately focused their attention on Li Chuan.
Li Chuan nodded and told the general story of how he tracked Itachi and Kisame after they left, but he concealed the subsequent transaction and cooperation with Itachi.
Instead, he and Itachi were evenly matched. Later, because Itachi's Susanoo was too taxing on his body, he escaped with the seriously injured Kisame.
And because he consumed too much chakra, he couldn't continue the pursuit.
"Kisaki Kisame is Kirikage's S-class rebel ninja. In the last ninja war, he escaped from a large number of elites led by Ibiki many times. He is very powerful.
Besides, there is Uchiha Itachi, can you really do that with your strength?"
As soon as Li Chuan finished speaking, Danzo raised doubts.
As the root of Konoha, he actually has a lot of unknown information, and he has not yet contributed it to the third generation. He naturally knows something about the strength of Kisame and Itachi.
Both of these people definitely have Kage-level strength, and in his eyes, Li Chuan is at best an elite jounin, and his best skill is medical ninjutsu.
"Danzo-sama, I just happened to understand a way to improve my strength recently, so my strength can be considered a small improvement."
Faced with Danzo's doubts, Li Chuan directly merged his true energy and chakra, his eyes turned into yin and yang, and activated the Tao Sage mode, and his body suddenly erupted with extremely powerful chakra fluctuations.
"This...how does it look a bit like...the sage mode of Jiraiya and the Fourth Generation!"
Sensing the special changes in Li Chuan's chakra and the sudden surge in chakra fluctuations, the eyes of the third generation and the three advisors suddenly changed.
People of the younger generation may not know it, but how can they, the older generation, not understand it.
Although Li Chuan's sage mode is obviously different from that of Jiraiya and the Fourth Generation, it can be seen that they should belong to the same type. They are all based on chakra and mixed with some kind of natural energy.
Indeed, he is indeed a super genius who can transform from an ordinary person to an elite ninja in just one or two years.
In this way, it would make sense that he could seriously injure Kisame and defeat Uchiha Itachi.
"Genius is like this, it always surprises people. I think Shimura may not have experienced that kind of experience, so he doesn't understand."
Sandai smiled and teased Danzo, relaxing the atmosphere, and then asked Li Chuan:
"Did you hear them tell you any information about Akatsuki during the battle?"
This time all the high-level officials of Konoha gathered here because they learned from Asuma and Kurenai's reports that Akatsuki, whom Jiraiya had been tracking, actually had the idea of Kyuubi.
The tailed beast is a village's most powerful weapon of war, and it is an existence that cannot be lost.
Li Chuan rolled his eyes, pretended to think for a while, and then slowly said:
"There is indeed some information about Akatsuki. When I was fighting Kisame, I heard him mention something about the Rain Ninja Village. I thought it might have something to do with the Rain Ninja."
In fact, within the Akatsuki organization, only Konan, Zetsu and Obito know the true identity of Tendo Payne.
The other members have always seen the Six Paths of Pain controlled by Nagato. They actually don't know the connection between Nagato and the Land of Rain.
Even Kisame and Itachi only knew the existence of Uchiha Madara in Obito disguise.
At least that's the case for now. Itachi knew Nagato's identity, and he probably didn't know it until a few years later, because if the third generation knew it before he died, he wouldn't have told the third generation.
Moreover, Nagato did not say that he wanted to capture the nine tailed beasts before, but he only worked around the major ninja villages as a mercenary and earned a lot of money.
That is to say, the plan to capture the tailed beast has only been officially finalized recently.
Therefore, the third generation could not determine which village's ninja the real leader of Akatsuki was, and who was the guy who called himself Uchiha Madara and caused the disaster of the Nine-Tails.
"Rain Ninja Village?"
The third generation turned to look at Danzo.
He knew that during the Third Ninja War, Danzo had a secret quarrel with Hanzo, the Sanshouyu of the Rain Ninja Village.
Danzo saw this and said expressionlessly:
"Ten years ago, a civil war broke out in Yu Ninja Village. Up to now, Sanshouyu Hanzo has not completely resolved the civil war. Besides, except for sending people to participate in the Chunin Examination, Yu Ninja has always implemented a closed strategy and has no contact with the outside world.
At present, we have no relevant information about the inside of Yu Ren."
How could he not know the intelligence of the "Akatsuki" organization? It was because he fell in love with Nagato's strange pair of eyes that he lured Sanshouyu Hanzo, the brainless guy, to deal with Akatsuki together.
But what good would it do him to tell the information about "Akatsuki"?
If you want to overthrow the third generation and take the position of Hokage, then a lot of information cannot be told to the third generation. Even if it will hurt Konoha, as long as he can take the position of Hokage, it will be worth it.
It's a pity that Orochimaru, that loser, failed to kill the third generation in the "Konoha Collapse Plan".
"It is indeed a bit suspicious. Could it be that Sansho Hanzo is behind Akatsuki?"
Sandai's brows furrowed.
If it was really Sansho Fish Hanzo, it would be more troublesome.
"This is a time of peace. There is no definite information. It is best not to conflict with Yu Ren."
At this time, Mito Kabuto and Koharu, who had gone to bed, spoke.
As staunch doves, the two did not want conflicts between Konoha and other ninja villages.
In particular, the Kingdom of Rain is located at the junction of the Kingdom of Earth, the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Wind. If Konoha rashly attacks the Rain Ninja during peacetime, it will inevitably make other villages think that Konoha is going to do something.
It would be bad if it triggers the Fourth Ninja War.
