Chapter 353 The Depressed Danzo
Chapter 353 The Depressed Danzo
"boring."
Although Sasuke didn't know what protection money was, he knew it was not a good thing just from the literal meaning.
He didn't like jokes or the tricks these kids played.
"Step aside."
With his proud head slightly raised, Sasuke certainly would not take a detour. He would only make those who blocked his way disappear in front of him.
"Wow! So handsome! That must be Sasuke!"
"Wow wow wow!! Look mom! That's Sasuke! The new most handsome guy!"
"I can't take it anymore! I'm going to faint!"
The commotion at the school gate caused an even bigger commotion. All the crazy little fans came over, not just the freshmen, but even the senior students from the Ninja School came running over.
Faced with such a big scene, Naruto suddenly felt a little scared.
He originally wanted to go over, but now he decided to wait and see what happened.
Sasuke didn't feel anything. After all, he had been the center of attention since he was a child, so being watched was no big deal.
Yuta didn't care at all. How could a bunch of slutty bitches stop him from training Sasuke?
"You have to pay protection money to get into school, especially for a dangerous person like you. Look at the impact you've caused."
Yota pointed at the girls around him.
"Someone has already fainted. If it escalates further, it will be a stampede and people will die. But you don't feel anything. Don't you feel guilty?"
"Guilty?"
Sasuke was stunned for a moment, then sneered.
"It has nothing to do with me. They all did it of their own free will. I didn't force or ask anyone to do it."
"Yeah, yeah! Sasuke! Look at me!"
The girls had no intention of dispelling the enchantment and just kept licking Sasuke's face.
"It has nothing to do with you, it has to do with me. If you don't care, I will!" Yu Tai said as a matter of course.
"Heh...Who are you? Why do you have the right to be in charge?"
Sasuke almost laughed out of anger.
"Because my eldest brother is Beiliuhu!"
Sasuke's smile faded when he heard Hiruzen's name being called.
Although Hiruko has left Konoha for a long time, his legend remains in Konoha.
Externally, he destroyed a city with one move, internally, he punched the Fourth Hokage and kicked the patriarchs of major families. That guy is really strong and a real tiger.
"Pay protection money!"
With too small a hand stretched out, is to ask for.
"This is a school. The hooligans can go outside the school to make trouble. Obiru, you have no right to control Konoha School. What right do you have to charge fees?"
Sasuke's face was dark, and his hands in his pockets were clenched into fists, ready to fight with Yuta at any time.
"My eldest brother can't manage it, but my brother's father is the principal. So, rounding it off, I can manage this school too!"
With his head held high, his unreasonableness was fully displayed.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes and felt that it was impossible to reason with the guy in front of him, so he might as well beat him up.
The two of them confronted each other, neither giving in. Naruto stood on the side, always feeling a little redundant and unable to find his own part in the picture.
"what to do?"
At this time, a voice as gentle as spring breeze sounded from behind everyone.
Minato smiled as he squeezed past the students and came to the center of the circle, where he saw Yota and Sasuke.
"New students, please get along well with each other. Yota, Sasuke, go check on your classes and then go to school."
Although his voice was emotionless, a master like Minato already had his own stance and pressure. Sasuke and Yota did not continue to stalemate, but snorted and turned away.
"Dad!"
Naruto came closer.
Minato touched Naruto's yellow hair and handed the lunch box in his other hand to Naruto.
"Are you hungry?"
Gululu~
If Minato hadn't mentioned it, Naruto would have forgotten that he was hungry.
"Hahaha, go ahead, Naruto, and remember to share your breakfast with your good friends~"
"Know it!"
Naruto grabbed the lunch box, waved to Minato, and ran towards the inside of the playground chasing after Yota's figure.
......
The home of the Sarutobi clan.
"Hiruzen."
Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the old pipe in his hand, stood up slightly from the recliner and looked towards the door.
"What brings you here, Danzo? Isn't the Root busy?"
Danzo suddenly showed up in broad daylight, leaving Hiruzen a bit bewildered.
"What roots? Ha, the good apprentice you taught has already dug out my roots!"
Danzo said grumpily, plopping down on the small stool next to Hiruzen.
Hiruzen pulled his arm back awkwardly.
Because what Danzo said was true.
After Orochimaru came to power, he seemed to have transferred Sarutobi Shinnosuke from the Anbu and sent Sarutobi Asuma to the Daimyo Mansion, but this was a normal transfer of power.
The other ninjas of the Sarutobi clan remained completely unchanged.
On the surface, Orochimaru attacked the third generation's team, but in reality, let alone causing any serious damage, Orochimaru didn't even pull out the knife. He just left the blade open to show his strength.
But Danzo, who was also at the pinnacle of power, was in a miserable situation.
The Shimura clan had already declined after Danzo, and there were not two decent ninjas in the entire clan. Most of the Shimura clan members had no ninja talent and eventually became ordinary people.
Danzo didn't provide any help to his own clan and was only thinking about Konoha.
The Root is all of Danzo's hard work.
However, the rights that Danzo had fought so hard for and the Root that he had built with so much effort did not even last three months in Orochimaru's hands and was on the verge of collapse.
Now the Root has become a veritable Anbu training camp. Except for some family members sent by families that have an agreement with Danzo, most of the talented ninjas have been recruited by Orochimaru to the Anbu!
The power of the Root was repeatedly reduced, and even its basic ability to leave the village was restricted. The Root controlled by Danzo was now not only lame and deaf, but also blind, without ears or eyes, and with restricted movements. It was no different from a mummy tied in a coffin.
When it comes to elders, Konoha only thinks of Hiruzen, who was once the third hokage, and Akimichi Tofu, who commanded a large army. Even Mitomonen and Utane Koharu, who are often invisible, are mentioned.
As for Danzo, only the title of Root Leader preserved his last bit of dignity.
Hiruzen understood that Orochimaru's ideas were different from theirs. He wanted to concentrate power and mobilize the entire Konoha. Danzo and his Root had to move, and the movement had to be big, the kind that would cut an artery.
But doing so would be very unfair to Danzo.
No matter how many bad things Danzo had done, he had worked diligently for Konoha for decades. In the end, not only did he have no reputation at all, he was even slandered by the Root, and the slandered Root had most of its rights taken away.
Hiruzen understood Orochimaru and felt more sympathetic towards his old friend.
"Danzo, you know, Orochimaru had no choice but to do these things..."
Hiruzen advised slowly.
"We are old now, so let's just watch the young people struggle. Isn't Konoha pretty good now? No war, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. Don't you think so, Danzo?"
Danzo pointed at his old friend's nose three times, but in the end he said nothing.
In the past, they could talk about anything with each other, but now the differences between him and his old friend are no longer simple contradictions in concepts.
Danzo slammed the door and left as Hiruzen sighed.
I don't even have anyone to share my anguish with. In the entire Konoha, who else can...
Danzo was walking alone in the alley, and as he was thinking, he suddenly remembered that there was a Mr. Kozo in Konoha!
Mr. Gu Zang used to be the one who supported him the most!
And although Mr. Kozang recommended Orochimaru to the position, some of Orochimaru's actions made Mr. Kozang not very satisfied!
