Chapter 52: The No. 1 Ninja
At this time, Danzo could be said to be the number one in the ninja world.
After all, what he held in his arms was the second Six Paths Sage: in brackets, the future one.
With mixed emotions, Danzo stared at little Obito who was very interested in his hair.
This seemingly harmless little guy in front of him was one of the culprits who killed him in his previous life.
(Although part of the reason is my own fault.)
I didn't expect that the two would meet again in this way.
Humph, I didn’t expect that, Obito.
You finally fell into my hands.
I saw the little guy was still pulling his hair.
Danzo changed his posture and held him in his arms with his backhand.
The other free hand was violently ruffling the other person's hair.
Should we say it's worthy of Uchiha's genes?
Even at such a young age, my hair is already very prickly.
Danzo used a lot of strength, which made little Obito very uncomfortable.
The little guy's big watery eyes were filled with tears.
Danzo, in a good mood, then handed little Obito to Ye Cang.
Walk towards the inside of the base.
Walking and thinking.
I guess I have made the Six Paths Sage cry.
I don’t know if I’ll have the chance in this life to make the third Six Paths Sage cry.
Madara: Keep talking, I'm listening.
Yekura, holding Obito in his arms, saw Danzo leave.
He immediately put the little guy into Qing's arms.
He jogged all the way, keeping close to Danzo's pace.
Only Qing was left, looking at the crying little Obito at a loss.
Rack your brains to make the other person happy.
......
Looking at the big steel door in front of me.
Danzo fell into deep thought.
As always, head towards the research department.
I only found out when I got to the door.
The original wooden door was replaced with a sturdy steel door.
Moreover, after observing for a long time, no trace of the keyhole was found.
"Danzo-sama, here, here."
Ye Cang tugged at the corner of Danzo's clothes, pointed at the red button next to the door frame, and spoke softly.
Looking in the direction of Ye Cang's finger, Danzo indeed found the red button.
He stretched out his finger and pressed it.
"Which one?"
A familiar voice came from the speaker on top of the gate.
Judging from the voice, the person speaking seems to be Guangzhi.
"I am Danzo."
Danzo cleared his throat and stood with his hands behind his back.
"..."
Danzo originally thought that he could enter the laboratory smoothly by just giving his name.
There was no response for a long time.
After a while, Guangzhi answered with a pinched throat.
"Lord Orochimaru said that this is a strictly experimental area and no outsiders are allowed to enter. Also, I'm not Hiroshi."
Danzo: "..."
Okay, okay, let’s play like this, right?
"Pfft."
Even Ye Cang, who was standing by, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Then he immediately straightened his face and pretended nothing had happened.
Looking at the loudspeaker above his head with a gloomy face, Danzo really wanted to use wind jutsu to let them see what the darkness of the ninja world is.
As if the voice had seen through his thoughts, another voice came from the loudspeaker.
"This gate was funded by Lord Orochimaru who personally negotiated with Lord Kakuzu. Lord Kakuzu said that if anyone damages such an expensive gate, he will punish them."
That's what you said.
Am I someone who is afraid of Kakuzu?
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Danzo turned and left.
I am not a coward.
I just respect the financial expert I hired.
......
Unable to get any progress on Hashirama's cell research, Danzo had no choice but to bring Yekura to the training ground.
I found Yahiko and the other two and gained a lot of favorability from them.
By the way, I rubbed the little one's big furry head.
Yes, now the little one has also obtained the root system.
It has been promoted to the root watchdog.
When he walks, he can be said to be very vigorous.
Not your average vulgar dog.
"Master Danzo, do you still have any detonating tags on you?"
Suddenly, Konan stretched out his little head and looked at Danzo with anticipation.
"Hmm? Exploding Talisman?"
Hearing this, Danzo was stunned.
He reached into the ninja tool bag and fumbled around for a while, and actually took out a few.
Take the detonating talisman out of your pocket.
Little stars suddenly appeared in Xiaonan's big eyes.
Staring intently at the stack of detonating tags in Danzo's hand.
"Last time, Teacher Dan taught everyone how to use the detonating talisman, and since then, Xiaonan has started collecting this thing."
Yahiko on the side scratched his head and explained awkwardly.
"But that thing is quite expensive, and they only issue 5 of them every month."
It turned out to be the case.
Danzo nodded in understanding.
Then he generously gave all the detonating tags to Xiaonan.
"Thank you, Danzo-sama!"
Konan jumped for joy and gave Danzo a big hug.
Then he happily put all the detonating tags into his ninja tool bag.
Ye Cang gritted his teeth when he saw this.
[Damn it, I don’t even have the nerve to hug Danzo-sama! ]
Shouting in his heart, Ye Cang began to think about what reasons he should use to get closer to Lord Danzo.
He rubbed the heads of the three people and the dog one by one again, and urged them to study hard.
By the way, when you have nothing to do, go and look after little Obito.
"By the way, if you see Minato and Kushina, tell them too."
After seeing the three little ones agreed, Danzo added a sentence.
"Tell them to look after little Obito when they are free."
You're sweating, Obito.
All the people you hurt in your previous life are now gathered at the roots.
We will definitely create a wonderful childhood memory for you...
......
In a secret room in Jiuyuan Mansion.
Fugaku, who was summoned by the clan leader, knelt on the throne with an upright posture.
The expression on his face remained as calm as ever.
Opposite him, Kuon chose a relatively comfortable posture and patiently told Fugaku all about his conversation with Danzo in the morning.
At the end, Kuon stared into Fugaku's eyes and asked.
"What do you think about this?"
Hearing Hisaon's question, Fugaku frowned, his brain worked rapidly, and he began to calculate the pros and cons.
Losing a Konoha Police Department in exchange for future promotion opportunities for the entire clan...
This does seem to be a good deal.
but......
Can the top leaders really accept the Uchiha clan?
Fugaku saw clearly the reason why the village excluded the Uchiha.
It's not just because of the previous defection of Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Setsuna; it's more because of the fear of the Sharingan.
Imagine being in the same room and working with someone who can control you with just a glance.
Who can accept it without any reservation?
Of course, this is just a rumor.
After all, if the Uchiha clan was really that powerful, they wouldn't have been forced to sue for peace by the Senju clan.
Not everyone has such terrifying pupil power.
Most of the Uchiha were actually ordinary ninjas who had not opened their eyes.
Just as rumored, the Uchiha clan can control the tailed beasts.
But after looking through the clan records, it was found that only Uchiha Madara, who opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, was able to do this.
What if I accepted Danzo's request, but he didn't fulfill his promise?
Then public opinion will definitely erupt within the tribe, and sooner or later it will lead to a coup.
By then, the Uchiha clan that is against the village will probably be wiped out in the long river of time just like the Senju clan.
But, if we reject Danzo...
Given that person's personality, I'm afraid the Uchiha will disappear en masse.
