Chapter 27: Internal and external troubles of the Hidden Leaf Village

Chapter: Internal and external troubles of the Hidden Leaf Village! The prelude to the Chunin Exams! (Asking for flowers)

Inuzuka, Yamanaka, Kurama.

The three clans took the initiative to become vassal clans of the Forest Senju.

The Hyuga clan was also "flirting" with the Forest Senju, and the relationship between the two sides seemed very harmonious.

This news.

Soon spread throughout the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

So much so that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Danzo Shimura were gloomy all day long, and it seemed their mood was not very optimistic, because under the leadership of Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye, their power was constantly increasing, making the two of them feel threatened.

But——

They were just developing normally.

They had no reason at all to go and stop them.

In fact, their clans even owed the Forest Senju a large sum of money because of purchasing real estate.

"Sarutobi, I told Itachi long ago to take action early to suppress the Forest Senju, but Itachi refused to listen. Look at the current situation, how are Itachi going to solve it!"

"Hmph, it's as if Itachi had a way. Why didn't Itachi stand up and stop the marriage alliance between Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye and Kushina Uzumaki back then? Now Itachi come to blame me."

This pair of good friends who loved and killed each other.

Were now at daggers drawn, almost ready to fight directly.

In an instant. ===== CHAPTER 56 =====

The entire Hokage office.

Was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The two old men stared at each other with wide eyes. After a long time, Danzo Shimura snorted coldly, leaned on his cane, and sat back in his original seat.

He was not an idiot.

Who would have dared to stand up and stop the marriage alliance between Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye and Kushina Uzumaki back then?

That was purely a death-seeking behavior. At the very least, Danzo Shimura did not want to take the blame for this; if things went wrong, he would die on the spot. He had originally intended for Hiruzen Sarutobi to take the blame, but this old monkey was very shrewd and didn't take the bait.

Neither of them wanted to be the first to stand up and take the blame.

This led to.

The two of them doing nothing in the end.

"Inuzuka, Yamanaka, Kurama, how do Itachi plan to deal with these three clans?"

"Do Itachi want to take people to wipe them out? If Itachi are willing to take the 'Root' to do it, I won't stop Itachi."

"The three clans joined forces; how could they be wiped out just by saying so? What's more, behind them stands the power of the Forest Senju. Even with your Mist Mist Anbu, Itachi might not succeed."

"There's no other way, let's let them be for now. After the war starts, we'll see if there's an opportunity to weaken their strength."

Discussing back and forth.

At the very least, in peacetime.

Facing the 'alliance' formed with the Forest Senju as the head and the three medium-sized clans as the support.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura were both helpless and had no way to start. They could only wait quietly for the war to start and see if they could find any suitable opportunity.

At this moment.

These two old schemers.

Both felt a sense of grievance. When did they become so constrained in their actions?

Danzo Shimura, with a gloomy face, slammed the door and left, returning to his 'Root', not knowing what he was plotting in the dark.

"Ryosuke."

"What are the Hokage's orders?"

"The Chunin Exams are about to begin; go and send an invitation to Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye."

"Yes."

Following the departure of the Mist Mist Anbu ninja named 'Ryosuke'.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, smoked his pipe, looking at the ethereal smoke in the air, his heart filled with many thoughts.

This Hokage.

Is really not easy to be.

If he had the power of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.

Or possessed the wisdom and planning of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

That would be great.

For Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The current Hidden Leaf Village could be said to be facing 'internal and external troubles'.

Internally, there is the alliance formed by the Forest Senju, Inuzuka, Yamanaka, and Kurama, and Danzo Shimura is not on his side.

Externally, the four major ninja villages are eyeing them covetously, wanting to take a big bite out of the richest Hidden Leaf Village through this war, and they could fall into a situation of being besieged at any time.

Hidden Leaf Village.

Forest Senju compound.

After the New Year passed, Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye also had a good time for half a month.

During the day, he cultivated feelings with his offspring, and incidentally, within his capabilities, he gave them some guidance to help them solve some small problems.

Although their talent and aptitude were not very good.

But.

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye was, after all, a Kage-level powerhouse, so guiding a few-month-old child in cultivation was not a problem.

The cultivation progress of Niu Senju and Luffy Senju.

Was also advancing by leaps and bounds.

After Senju Senju Liya Senju turned one month old.

She could also walk slowly. Because her talent and aptitude were not as excellent as her older brother and sister, she could not yet reach the point of running and jumping at will.

"Senju Senju Liya."

"This is the full-month gift from your father."

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye also prepared corresponding gifts for his daughter.

A book titled "Self-Cultivation of a King".

A book titled "Basics of Knight Spear".

And a Wood Style pendant that condensed his own Wood Style power, which could play a protective role at critical moments.

To be honest.

Those two books.

Were found after Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye sent people to scour almost the entire ninja world.

After all, these two things were too unpopular in the ninja world, and it was already very good to be able to find some basic books. As for the future path, that was something Senju Senju Liya Senju would have to open up and grow into herself.

"Thank Itachi, Father."

Senju Senju Liya Senju thanked him politely.

Although there were two books, she didn't seem to dislike reading; on the contrary, she was quite interested.

On the other side.

The financial manager, Kakuzu.

Also walked up with the Third Hokage's invitation and handed it to Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye.

"Hmm?"

"That old monkey, Hiruzen Sarutobi."

"Actually thought of sending me an invitation to the Chunin Exams."

"This is really rare."

"......."

After reading the content above.

Senju Senju Senju Senju Xingye raised his eyebrows slightly.

However, he did not refuse. There were many familiar faces in this Chunin Exam, so it was just right to go and see them.

Just treat it as killing time; anyway, he didn't have to do anything himself.

P.S.: New book uploaded, asking for flowers, tips, monthly tickets, and rating tickets. The support of Itachi readers is the motivation for the author to write more! ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
