When the name of Shimura Danzo was mentioned in connection with Asuma, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes became serious.
Could it be that Danzo Shimura has extended his evil hand to his son?
This is unbearable!
"Asuma was inevitably exposed to some intelligence, when he accidentally noticed the roots, he discovered a shocking conspiracy after paying attention to them day by day."
"He doesn't understand why the Root did not receive any punishment for its illegal actions, and Shimura Danzo is a good friend of yours. Asuma believes that it is because of your protection, Uncle Hiruzen, that the Root is able to act so recklessly."
Sarutobi Hiruzen had a strange expression, a mixture of worry and relief, but his eyes kept signaling Qingshui to continue.
Qing Shui said bluntly: "Asuma's focus is on the experiment of developing Wood Release."
Experiments to develop Wood Release...
Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly, and Qingshui knew that this was not strange.
After the Second Ninja War, the Wood Release experiment was decided at a high-level meeting of the Jonin class. The Uchiha clan, who possessed the Sharingan, paid close attention to this matter at that time.
But Asma, why does he continue to pay attention to this experiment that has been stopped?
Qing Shui seemed not to notice the change in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, and continued: "Asuma discovered that after the village stopped the experiment, some ninjas with the Senju bloodline disappeared in Konoha and never appeared again."
"Even some children with Thousand Hands bloodline disappeared inexplicably..."
"Such a vicious incident, Asuma believes that the Root would not have been able to do this without your affirmation."
At this point, Qing Shui sighed helplessly:
"I have talked to Asuma. As Hokage, you are responsible for managing the affairs of the entire village, dozens of ninja clans, and tens of thousands of ninjas. It is impossible for you to grasp all the changes in the village."
"And the Root is a powerful organization under the Anbu. If we work hard to deceive you, we can do it in the short term."
Qing Shui turned his gaze to the Hokage hat on the table, his tone envious but with a hint of helplessness:
"Uncle Hiruzen, Asuma admires you very much, but to the extent that he hopes you can do everything and manage the village without a trace of dirt."
"So, when Asuma saw that the darkness had not been dealt with, he, who worshipped his father so much, did not think whether there was a problem with the root. Instead, he thought that you should have dealt with it long ago."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became more and more shocked, even a little pleased. He unconsciously took out his pipe and fumbled for the flint on the table.
Qingshui stood up swiftly, his fingers ignited with just the right amount of flame, and went forward to meet him.
Sarutobi Hiruzen patted Qingshui's shoulder, took a deep breath, and exhaled a puff of thick smoke.
"Qingshui, I don't know how to thank you..."
Chapter 52: Sarutobi Hiruzen is extremely satisfied and finds Shimura who is in love with Qingshui
"I have to admit that Asuma was right. It was my negligence that caused me to fail his expectations..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed: "As a Hokage and a father, I have made mistakes. I need to reflect on myself."
"Fortunately, with your presence, Qingshui, I was able to learn about these problems in time. I will make an explanation that will satisfy both of you and the village."
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled happily in his heart.
I thought Asuma was just being rebellious, but was he actually being upset because he admired his father too much?
As for whether this is reasonable?
In Sarutobi Hiruzen's opinion, this is very reasonable! The key is that it sounds comfortable and useful...
Qingshui's performance made Sarutobi Hiruzen very satisfied.
As a Hokage, what he needs is someone who tells him the truth, whether it's Uchiha or Ino-Shika-Chou...
The so-called loyalty is not absolute, which means it is absolutely not loyal!
At present, Qingshui's loyalty is extremely rare in the Uchiha clan and even in Konoha.
Sarutobi Hiruzen recalled Qingshui's test paper, and felt more and more that Qingshui in front of him was a ninja who integrated knowledge and action.
The will of fire must be burning fiercely in Qingshui's chest...
"Qing Shui, don't worry. As the Hokage, Uncle Hiruzen will definitely give an explanation to Asuma, you, and the entire village."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked very serious, and said solemnly: "In Konoha, no matter who you are, even if you are the assistant to the Hokage, if you make a mistake, you must accept severe punishment from the village!"
"The Will of Fire is something that every ninja in Konoha must abide by, and Shimura Danzo is no exception!"
Qing Shui nodded in agreement.
But Tobirama Senju, known as Xiao Qingshui, narrowed his eyes, expressing his disapproval of the Hokage.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't hear him, he still cursed: "With this level of monkey, you let Qingshui brat trick you into holding your pipe unsteadily, and you still gave me a zero on the Will of Fire test!"
"I've got it in mind, Monkey! When I see you again, you'll have to explain to me how you managed Konoha!"
Qing Shui listened to Sarutobi Hiruzen's speech with a smile on his face, while attacking the very indignant Senju Tobirama: "Tobirama, although sometimes this dead person is indeed more useful than the living."
"But at the moment, it seems that you, a dead Hokage, are really not as useful as the living one. Look, Sarutobi Hiruzen ignored you even when you scolded him. You should learn more from him..."
"You keep scolding me. I want to listen to what the Third Hokage has to say. You are such an old man who doesn't want to make progress!"
Senju Tobirama's face darkened.
Although he knew Qingshui was adding fuel to the fire, he was still extremely angry.
If conditions permit, he would rush out and teach Sarutobi Hiruzen a lesson!
[From the target Senju Tobirama: You obtain the Earth Escape: Fish Reflection in the Earth Technique! ]
"There's one more thing I want to report to Uncle Hiruzen."
After Sarutobi Hiruzen denounced Shimura Danzo and the Will of Fire, Aomizu, who let it go in one ear and out the other, said slowly:
"Asuma taught me the Sarutobi clan's fire jutsu. In return, I shared with him some of the Uchiha clan's fire jutsu techniques, but in order for him to understand quickly, I used the Sharingan's illusion techniques."
"This is my development of the Sharingan. It uses illusions to let ninjas experience the feeling of releasing difficult ninjutsu. It is also helpful for mastering new ninjutsu. Perhaps it can be used in teaching in ninja schools..."
"Also, I am a little worried. I am afraid that the fact that I used illusion to exchange fire escape techniques with Asuma might be discovered by someone with ulterior motives and cause a conflict."
"Like Asuma, I don't trust some people in the village. I only trust Uncle Hiruzen. After all, I'm an Uchiha..."
Qing Shui finished speaking, showing a pair of Sharingan that exuded warmth, and sighed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at this special pair of Sharingans and laughed.
How could he not know?
When Sarutobi Hiruzen used the telescope technique and saw Qingshui teaching Nohara Rin the palm magic technique, he understood what was going on.
The title of Ninjutsu Doctor did not come out of thin air.
The key point is that Qingshui showed him the Sharingan and confessed that he used a genjutsu on Asuma...
This is crucial, no matter how the illusion is used and whether the intention is good, using illusion on the son of the Hokage is very sensitive.
But when Qingshui took the initiative to speak out, the nature of the matter changed completely.
At a level below the Mangekyō, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not afraid of the Sharingan's illusions.
This is Konoha, not a remote village where even the Hidden Mist Village doesn't have a complete sense of ninjutsu. We have the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, the perception of the Yamanaka clan and the Uzumaki clan, and the wisdom of the Nara clan...
No one can quietly control the Konoha high-level officials and Asuma, the son of the Hokage.
"You think too much, kid!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, but there was a hint of blame in his tone:
"Don't worry, Uncle Hiruzen. I trust you absolutely! You are an excellent Konoha ninja and possess the best Will of Fire I have ever seen."
"Don't worry about your Uchiha origin. The Uchiha clan is also an important part of Konoha."
"My former teacher, the Second Hokage, treated me with all his heart and regarded me as an important disciple even under such circumstances... Although I am not as good as Lord Tobirama, I am sure I have the magnanimity to accept you, Aomizu."
Hearing this, Qingshui let out a long breath, listened to Senju Tobirama's angry curses, and laughed from the bottom of his heart.
——"Monkey, you have a shitty character! You really made me lose face in front of this little brat!"
The more Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Qingshui, the more satisfied he became. He coughed softly and said slowly: "Qingshui... Next, I will make a request as your friend's father."
"I know that the ninja class division is the beginning of every ninja's career and the starting point for cultivating bonds. It is extremely important. You may already have a teammate you like."
"But I am not only a Hokage, as Asuma's father, I have to say that I have some selfish motives..."
"When the time comes to divide the classes, I will put you and Asuma in the same class and find a good teacher for you."
Qingshui laughed. Is this the little willfulness of being a Hokage?
"Thank you, Uncle Hiruzen. I also really want to become teammates with Asuma and grow together to become pillars of Konoha."
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled happily.
In his heart, he has become a Hokage who can subdue the Uchiha like Tobirama Senju.
Looking at the portrait of Senju Tobirama hanging on the wall, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself: "Teacher, I am trying hard to pursue you and become a good Hokage..."
"Please, cheer me on!"
When Qing Shui left, Sarutobi Hiruzen specifically mentioned to Qing Shui——
If some of the Anshi really causes trouble for him, don't worry, Konoha's Iron Fist will support the righteous Qingshui!
And just a few nights later.
Qingshui was returning home from shopping when she passed an intersection.
A strange man covered in bandages and leaning on a crutch appeared in front of Qingshui.
The person who came was none other than Danzo Shimura...
Chapter 53: The confident Danzo offers Qingshui generous conditions
In recent times, the Hokage has been assisting Lord Danzo Shimura, and he feels very proud of himself.
The human experiment he conducted in private with Orochimaru was successful. The surviving baby was named "A", and he awakened his talent for Wood Release at only a few years old.
According to A's information, Orochimaru injected a small amount of Hashirama's cells into Danzo Shimura. Although he was unable to master Wood Release, he was able to better control the three-magatama Sharingan in his right eye.
At this point, Shimura Danzo believed that he had mastered the original power of Konoha——
The combination of Uchiha and Senju can obtain everything... Oh no, it's the position of Hokage!
