~6 min read 1,161 words

Hiruzen Sarutobi said coldly.

"Danzo... what are you here for?!"

"You did all these things in Konoha, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet, yet you actually dare to show up..."

Seeing the cold expression on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face,

Shimura Danzo raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

"Hiruzen... isn't my coming here now precisely to help you?"

"If I don't show up... when Minato Namikaze comes looking for trouble for you, who will help you?"

"You should be grateful for my appearance. If the two of us join forces, perhaps we can make Minato Namikaze think twice..."

As for the matter of the Ino-Shika-Cho three clans,

Shimura Danzo had also sensed it!!!

That was why he would appear before the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi,

because he knew that Minato Namikaze's appearance

was a tremendous threat to both him and the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi,

At this point, the two of them had to join forces if there was any chance of dealing with Minato Namikaze!!!

Minato Namikaze was still in his youth, and he was currently at the peak of his strength,

but he and Hiruzen Sarutobi had long since been advanced in years,

the two of them probably could not pose any threat to Minato Namikaze!!!

Minato Namikaze's remarks on the comparison livestream system had already caught Shimura Danzo's attention,

so he knew that once Minato Namikaze was resurrected and could resume his actions,

the first thing he would do was come looking for trouble for him and Hiruzen Sarutobi,

and compared to him, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was probably the one with the biggest headache right now!!!

"Danzo... you sure talk nicely..."

"As if Minato Namikaze wouldn't come looking for trouble for you..."

He drew on the pipe in his hand,

the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, stared coldly at Shimura Danzo!!!

Minato Namikaze would not let him off,

but Hiruzen Sarutobi also knew

that Minato Namikaze would likewise not let Shimura Danzo off!!!

Naruto Uzumaki's current situation was a scene that he and Shimura Danzo had created together!!

Shimura Danzo could not 3.7 stay out of it either,

so Shimura Danzo could only join forces with him to hold Minato Namikaze in check!!!

"Hehe... Hiruzen..."

"You tell me — does Minato Namikaze hate me more, or hate you more?"

"Back then, when Minato Namikaze used his own life to seal the Nine-Tails, what did you promise him?"

"But Naruto Uzumaki's current situation in this village, you must be very clear about it too....... "

"The one who made promises to Minato Namikaze was you, not me. I never said I would take good care of his child after he passed away."

"The one who failed to keep his promise is you, the Third Hokage!!!"

A strange smile appeared on Shimura Danzo's face as he said to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

321. Hiruzen, you are too narrow-minded!!!

Looking at the smile on Shimura Danzo's face,

Hiruzen Sarutobi's mood grew worse and worse,

because he thoroughly detested Shimura Danzo showing such a smile at him,

Shimura Danzo's meaning seemed to be that he had him completely figured out!!!

This made the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, extremely displeased with Shimura Danzo in his heart,

so the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, said coldly to Shimura Danzo.

"Danzo!!! I am the Hokage!!!"

"Besides me, no one else in Konoha can command all of this!!!"

"I want you to remember your own identity and position right now — you are the Hokage's Assistant!!!"

And when Shimura Danzo heard Hiruzen Sarutobi utter the four words 'Hokage's Assistant,'

his face also turned livid — this could be said to be the greatest sore spot in his heart!!!

The four words 'Hokage's Assistant' sounded as if it meant he was a level below Hiruzen Sarutobi,

28 this was not the feeling Shimura Danzo wanted in his heart; he wished he could command everything in Konoha!!!

"Hiruzen!!! You will regret this!!!"

"If you don't choose to join forces with me... when Minato Namikaze comes knocking, that will be your moment of greatest regret!!"

"When the time comes, don't blame me for not warning you about everything you are facing right now."

"The grudge between you and Minato Namikaze, I have no interest in meddling with it... but I know that before Minato Namikaze comes to settle the score with me, he will definitely settle the score with you first!!!"

At this point, a smug smile appeared once again on Shimura Danzo's face,

as if he could already picture the expression Hiruzen Sarutobi would make upon hearing these words,

and after Hiruzen Sarutobi heard Shimura Danzo say this,

an extremely displeased expression did indeed appear on his face,

Because he knew everything Danzo said was true,

Compared to Shimura Danzo,

Minato Namikaze's malice toward himself was probably the greatest,

Before he died, he had been begging him to take care of Naruto,

But over all these years, Hiruzen Sarutobi had barely taken any care of Naruto at all,

It could even be said that the behavior of many Konoha villagers toward Naruto Uzumaki was something he had deliberately allowed,

Because Hiruzen Sarutobi hoped to become a ray of light in Naruto's heart.

Once he made himself the hope and light in Naruto Uzumaki's heart,

Naruto Uzumaki would certainly obey him one hundred percent,

At that point, he could firmly keep the Nine-Tails jinchuriki in his own hands,

This was Hiruzen Sarutobi's plan,

But Hiruzen Sarutobi never imagined that the Comparison Live-Stream System would appear,

It could be said that the appearance of this system thoroughly disrupted all of Hiruzen Sarutobi's long-laid plans!!

If the Comparison Live-Stream System had never appeared.

Hiruzen Sarutobi would not be in his current state right now!!!!

Still, Hiruzen Sarutobi also knew that everything Shimura Danzo said was the truth.

"Danzo… don't think you can stay out of this either; Naruto Uzumaki's suffering over these years, you had quite a hand in it."

"Once Minato Namikaze finishes settling accounts with me, he definitely won't let you off…"

"Now I'm old and you're old too, but Minato Namikaze is still at his peak. If he comes to settle accounts with the two of us, what do you think we could possibly bring out to withstand him? …"

Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's interrogation,

But not a trace of panic showed on Shimura Danzo's face!!

A smile full of hidden meaning surfaced on his face.

"Hiruzen… you forgot…"

"Tobirama-sensei left quite a few powerful forbidden techniques recorded in the Sealed Scroll…"

"Although the two of us may no longer be Minato Namikaze's match now, we can seek out other people to help us…"

"Surely our predecessors wouldn't want to see the Fourth Hokage running amok in the village, turning the Konoha they built beyond all recognition, would they…"

After hearing Shimura Danzo say this,

A guess had already formed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart,

He raised his head, looked at Shimura Danzo, and asked in utter disbelief.
