Chapter 101
Rather than making meaningless resistance.
It was better to be open-minded and accept the various conveniences brought by the Forest Senju.
Of course, one thing is one thing; if there was a chance, Sarutobi Hiruzen would also like to seize the Forest Senju's industries. This was a super fat piece of meat; who wouldn't be jealous?
"You've fallen, Sarutobi!"
"Want some?"
"Hmph, I, Shimura Danzo, am irreconcilable with the Forest Senju and Uchiha. I won't eat!"
"Really don't want any? After I finish eating, you'll only have soldier pills left."
"I am a person with backbone!"
Shimura Danzo stated firmly.
If he said he wouldn't eat, he wouldn't eat. No matter how you tempted him, it would be useless. He possessed an iron-like will.
To achieve great things, one must have a tenacious will!
Watching Sarutobi Hiruzen eating so deliciously.
Shimura Danzo, covered in bandages, although drooling with greed, simply turned his head away, choosing to ignore it to avoid annoyance...
After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished his lunch, he waved his hand, letting the "Root" members take Shimura Danzo back to rest well; he didn't need to worry about the front-line battlefield for now.
Returning to his tent.
Shimura Danzo suddenly gave an order to a "Root" ninja:
"You, wait a moment."
The "Root" ninja, like a machine without emotion, stopped and said:
"Lord Danzo, what are your orders?"
Shimura Danzo coughed twice and said:
"Go and order a Forest Senju takeout for me. I want Ichiraku Ramen, extra green onions, no cilantro."
The "Root" ninja nodded:
"I understand, Lord Danzo, I will go do it right away."
Shimura Danzo added:
"Remember to order it in your name, don't mention my name, Shimura Danzo."
Hmm.
This is what they call.
Being vain and suffering for it.
Clearly hungry and wanting to eat, but stubbornly holding on, and in the end, not wanting others to know that he, Shimura Danzo, had ordered Forest Senju takeout.
Of course.
This kind of thing.
Was just self-deception.
Who didn't know that "Root" ninjas were tools directly under Shimura Danzo? They were almost all trained to have their emotions erased, and basically wouldn't buy anything without orders. Now that one suddenly ordered takeout, anyone could guess who it was for.
"Hmph—"
"Evil Forest Senju."
"Let me, Shimura Danzo, see what kind of soul-stealing potion you put in the takeout."
"........"
Even after eating their food.
Shimura Danzo still refused to admit defeat and had to mutter a few words.
Of course.
When the takeout actually arrived.
His speed of eating was also incredibly fast.
It would be fine in peacetime; he had money and could often buy delicious food in the Senju shopping mall. These were shops opened by various clans and wealthy merchants, so they didn't count as Forest Senju.
However.
In wartime.
There was no time to light a fire and cook. It was good enough to eat a tasteless soldier pill to fill your stomach.
Eating soldier pills for a long time made your mouth feel like it had no taste at all.
So.
Now tasting the delicious Ichiraku Ramen.
It was like a long drought meeting sweet dew; it tasted so good!
Just like ordinary people might dislike steamed buns on weekdays for being tasteless, but if you were made to eat compressed biscuits for months while doing high-intensity exercise of ten kilometers every day, you would find steamed buns to be supreme delicacies when you ate them again.
On the other side.
The five clans of Inuzuka, Yamanaka, Kurama, Nara, and Akimichi, who were gathered together playing cards and slacking off.
Had also been "diligently" showing their Will of Fire during this time.
What?!
This mission is dangerous?
Our Inuzuka clan is duty-bound, charging to the front.
Our Yamanaka clan fears no sacrifice, taking the lead.
Our Kurama clan is loyal and devoted, never retreating.
Our Nara clan plans strategically, winning from a thousand miles away.
Our Akimichi clan defends at the front, acting as a meat shield.
The five acting clans always accepted seemingly dangerous missions, but once they went out, they would have picnics and outings with the Cloud Village ninjas responsible for receiving them, both sides bragging and chatting, getting along harmoniously.
Especially after Senju Xingye saved the Third Raikage.
The Third Raikage also specifically ordered that his good brother Senju Xingye should be treated with the same respect as himself.
As for.
The Forest Senju's affiliated clans.
They were even more like their own flesh and blood, and must not be neglected.
You give some peripheral intelligence, and I'll exchange the Third Hokage's intelligence for it.
Both sides got what they needed.
Of course.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know the self-cultivation of these actors.
He thought they were all good ninjas who were not afraid of death in the face of true righteousness. Although he didn't know why the casualty rate was zero so far, maybe their clan ninjas were stronger and had good luck.
Looking at these ninjas with such awareness.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt quite gratified; this was the true "Will of Fire"!
"One pair of threes."
"I'll beat that!"
"Airplane with wings."
"I'll just play a rocket bomb to finish!"
"........"
At this moment.
The three clan heads of Inuzuka, Yamanaka, and Kurama.
Who were the people in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind who possessed the "Will of Fire," were gathered together playing Fight the Landlord, slacking off.
And the female Senju ninja carrying Senju Xingye's message had also arrived here.
