Chapter 128 Classic scene reappears

"Third generation grandpa! Are you...are you sick?"

Naruto trotted to Hiruzen Sarutobi's bed and looked at him openly.

Although his expression was very worried, he was making plans in his mind.

"On the surface, it doesn't look like he was seriously injured, but he seems to be very depressed."

So, did Menma-ge kill his relatives?

Tsk tsk tsk, look at the current posture, Brother Menma wants to make Sarutobi Hiruzen into a lonely old man.

Sarutobi Hiruzen first glanced at the ANBU ninja.

After the ANBU ninja exited the room, he comforted him with a gentle tone: "It's okay. As you get older, you are prone to minor illnesses and disasters."

While speaking, he looked Naruto up and down with slightly narrowed eyes.

When he found that there were no injuries on his body, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Naruto, just hope you're fine."

This sentence is very sincere and can be said to come from the heart.

Even Sarutobi Hiruzen himself couldn't tell in what capacity he was worried about Naruto.

The Third Hokage's concern for the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki?

Or is it the third generation grandfather's concern for Uzumaki Naruto?

"Third generation grandfather..."

Naruto seemed to have thought of something when he heard this, and there was a palpitation in his eyes that was visible to the naked eye.

"There was an old man who wanted to kill me, but I didn't expect him to be so weak. As a result..."

Although he had not finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen already understood the fate of the spy.

Unexpectedly, Naruto, who had not yet graduated from the ninja school, could actually kill a chuunin spy without any defense.

This kind of strength and talent is really too strong.

But while sighing at Naruto's strength.

Looking at Naruto, whose body was constantly shaking and whose eyes were filled with tears, Sarutobi Hiruzen still sighed secretly, and couldn't help but feel compassion in his heart.

"No matter how strong and talented he is, Naruto is just a child who has not graduated."

Under normal circumstances, in order to let the newly graduated genin see blood, the leading teacher will take on tasks similar to cleaning up gangsters.

But Naruto hasn't graduated yet, and the first time he kills someone is unexpectedly and without any psychological preparation.

It is conceivable that he must be under great psychological pressure at this moment!

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his hand and touched Naruto's lowered head.

"It's okay, Naruto, don't feel guilty."

He held Naruto and sat on the chair, and said in a gentle tone of relief: "That was an enemy who sneaked into the village. You eliminated a huge threat to the village."

Naruto lowered his head, but judging from his breathing rate, his mood seemed to be gradually returning to calm.

"hehe."

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled and said, "Naruto, please stay here for a while, and make sure there are no fish that have slipped through the net."

Although he was very confident in Konoha's barrier, the two masked men had proven with actual actions that the barrier was flawed.

Since Kumogakure Village was able to insert a chuunin spy and jounin spy, spies from other villages must have also infiltrated.

Whether it is to ensure the safety of the "Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki" or to protect the safety of "Uzumaki Naruto".

Naruto making the right choice by staying by his side.

But after listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Naruto showed hesitation.

"But if I stay here, won't it disturb the third generation grandfather's rest?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hands indifferently and said: "It doesn't matter, I have rested for a long time, you..."

Just didn't wait for him to finish.

"No!"

Naruto shook his head with a serious face and said: "Grandpa Third Generation, you look so bad, you still need to rest now."

"this……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated for a moment, then smiled gently and said, "Okay, I'll take a rest."

After saying that, he took the initiative to close his eyes, lay on the bed and began to fall asleep.

It didn't take long.

"Third generation grandfather?"

Hearing Naruto's soft probing, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not make any response.

He wanted to see what Naruto wanted to do.

Then he felt that someone was lifting the quilt for him and tucking the corners of the quilt.

"Naruto……"

At this moment, a warmth suddenly rose in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart.

The mature eldest son Sarutobi Shinnosuke is dead.

The rebellious second son Sarutobi Asuma disagrees with his ideas and even runs away from home.

The youngest grandson, Sarutobi Konohamaru, was just three years old, the age when people hate dogs.

I am afraid of comparison in everything.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had seen the sensible Naruto when he was three years old, but he really couldn't like his naughty grandson.

The gap is just too big.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen remembered another thing mentioned in the intelligence.

Jiraiya appeared at the border of the Land of Fire, and after shocking the four great ninja villages, he began to rush towards Konoha.

In other words, Jiraiya is coming back.

A bold idea suddenly popped into Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind.

"Perhaps, I can take this opportunity to let Jiraiya take over my position, and then when Naruto grows up..."

While he was thinking.

boom!

The ward door was suddenly pushed open by someone from outside.

"Hiruzhan, why do you want to disband..."

An old man with a bandaged face and an angry face walked in and wanted to question him angrily.

But after seeing Naruto who looked wary.

Subconsciously, he swallowed the rest of his words and immediately gave him a false smile.

"Who are you?"

However, facing his smile, Naruto asked back displeasedly: "You are so old, but you pushed the door in without permission. Don't you know what politeness is?"

When these words came out, Shimura Danzo's smile froze.

A sense of shame and embarrassment suddenly rose in his heart.

"Damn it! How could I meet the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki here?"

The "Root Will" used by the Root now is borrowed from Naruto's diary.

——People are like trees. The more they yearn for the sunshine above, the more their roots will extend into the dark underground.

This sentence almost touched Danzo's heart, and also made him appreciate and recognize Naruto a little more.

He had imagined what the scene would be like when he met Naruto.

At least he had to leave a good first impression, which would also make it easier for him to pull Naruto into the Root in the future.

But he never expected that the first meeting would be such an embarrassing scene...

Sarutobi Hiruzen also pretended to have just woken up and opened his eyes blankly.

"Danzo? What do you want to talk to me about?"

"I..."

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was asking knowingly and smiling, Shimura Danzo's face flushed.

With outsiders here, he couldn't do his best!

And Naruto on the side seemed to be aware of the relationship between the two.

"Grandpa Sandai."

Although he looked a little reluctant, he took the initiative to help: "I'll go see Sasuke next door first, and come to see you when I have time."

After that, he glared at Danzo with dissatisfaction, and then turned around and left the ward.

Although he was embarrassed and annoyed by Naruto, Danzo was undoubtedly relieved.

Then, his expression became serious and angry again.

"Hiruzen, why did you disband my Root!"

"You're asking me why?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression also became serious, and he asked back: "You mobilized the Root ninjas to ambush the Uchiha clan without my permission. Do you think I should punish you?!"

"If I don't punish you, how many people will be disappointed!"

As soon as he said this, Danzo immediately understood what he meant, and his face flushed with anger.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, this bastard!

It was obviously him who agreed to do this, but now it has become my unauthorized action!

Just after solving the Uchiha, you want to put all the blame on me!

Isn't this killing the donkey after it has done its work? !

"Even if that's the case!"

Danzo blushed and continued to question: "These are all done by me alone. You can't imprison all the ninjas I sent out!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen has "disbanded" the Root before.

But those Root members were all planted with curses by him, and the so-called disbandment was just a formality and a show.

As long as he spreads the news, those Root ninjas will still come back obediently.

As a result, for some reason, none of the Root ninjas he sent out came back this time.

If nothing unexpected happens, they must have been imprisoned by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen's words made Danzo stunned.

"Haha, I imprisoned Root ninjas?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sneered, and there was a bit of gunpowder in his tone: "I tell you the truth, those ninjas responsible for guarding the Uchiha clan's land have all been killed by that Amanomichu!!"

All killed?

"... Are you kidding?"

Danzo's face was full of disbelief, and he even showed anger in the end.

Nearly a hundred Root ninjas were killed by that Amanomichu?

That's nearly a hundred Root ninjas!

That's not nearly a hundred pigs, nor are they ordinary cannon fodder Genin!

Some of the elites among them were even those he personally visited several major families and tried his best to persuade and come! !

Whether it is an auxiliary ninja who specializes in perception, reconnaissance, and medical treatment, or an offensive ninja who specializes in ninjutsu, illusion, and physical skills.

Although it is not considered specialized, it almost includes all of them.

And it is such a nearly omnipotent team, but Sarutobi Hiruzen actually said that they were killed by one person?

What a joke? !

"Are you kidding me?"

Looking at the angry Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face also sank, and he directly threw the information on the side at his face.

"Go and see it yourself! Look carefully!"

Danzo stretched out his trembling arms and slowly opened the intelligence scroll.

And when he saw the casualty report, his flushed face turned pale in an instant.

Crack!

He tightly grasped the scroll and stared at the tragic numbers on it.

"Gone... Really gone..."

"I have been in charge of the Root for so many years, and I have spent so much effort to cultivate them, and there is not a single one left..."

Danzo's heart is bleeding crazily.

No.

It is simply spraying blood crazily.

In order to destroy the Uchiha and obtain enough Sharingan, he even colluded with the masked man who called himself Uchiha Madara.

But now...

There was no trace of Sharingan, but all the middle-level combat power of the Root was destroyed!

Danzo stared at the information, and his eyes almost burst into flames.

He was still suppressing his anger.

But at this moment.

"Soon, I will announce my treatment of you to all the jonin."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said without question: "And before that, you stay in the confinement room."

Jiraiya will be back soon, and he doesn't want Danzo to make trouble during this time.

As soon as these words came out, Danzo's face turned pale, and he felt so aggrieved.

"Sarutobi!!"

He wanted to say something.

But in the end, he only squeezed out those five words from his teeth.

"You will regret it!"

"Danzo, I am the Hokage."
