Chapter 661

This was only because they encountered the Third Great Ninja War, and Sarutobi Hiruzen was too cowardly and pursued a false peace too much.

Otherwise.

If it were in normal times, if Sarutobi Hiruzen could be a bit tougher.

Then he could play the Hidden Mist to death!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but frown and think after hearing these words.

Before.

He really hadn't thought about these things; after all, forcing a civilian ninja to death was the simplest thing for him.

Since there was a simple solution, he naturally couldn't be bothered to think about these things.

However, now.

He thought about it carefully and found that it might actually be possible.

After pondering for a long time, he nodded slowly.

"This is indeed a way."

"During this period, I will have to trouble you to think carefully, Shikaku."

"Whether it's regarding Nohara Rin or the Hidden Mist, we must prepare backup plans."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said earnestly.

Clearly.

The repeated failures in planning against Nohara Rin had already given him a splitting headache.

So this time, since there were other options.

His attitude naturally began to soften.

Nara Shikaku, of course, had no objection to this.

Immediately after.

After finishing the official business, the two began to talk about some public affairs within the village.

About two hours later.

Nara Shikaku walked out of the Hokage's office; only when he returned to his own office did he collapse into his office chair.

He looked exhausted.

However.

Thinking of his good cousin, he couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Tired, really tired to death!"

"Nara Koji, you bastard, you're just giving me trouble."

"Once the situation stabilizes, I'm not done with you!"

"Asshole!"
