Chapter 755

He knew his clansman's ability very well, and even better, he knew Uchiha Jin's temper and personality.

Trying to kill someone over such a small matter?

It was simply a joke!

Since the other party dared to do this, they wouldn't be afraid of trouble on this end.

Therefore.

It is best not to get entangled in this and to implement your own plan as soon as possible.

That is what is proper!

Your most important task now is to retire and then support Minato Namikaze's rise to power.

It is best to put the struggle with the Uchiha aside for now.

You must have a clear sense of priorities.

Shikaku Nara could swear to the heavens that he had no selfish motives in saying this; he was truly planning wholeheartedly for Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi: "..."

After hearing these words, he fell into silence.

He was thinking.

"880" Clearly.

He actually understood in his heart that Shikaku Nara's choice was the right one.

But, he was truly unwilling!

This guy, Uchiha Jin, had almost become a thorn in his side.

He was only twelve years old today!

The Third Raikage, among the Kage-level, could be called the strongest.

Even he, the "Strongest Hokage," admitted he was definitely no match for him.

Yet Uchiha Jin was able to kill him single-handedly.

This...

How could it not make his skin crawl?

He truly wanted to disregard everything and kill Uchiha Jin first.

Otherwise.

He probably wouldn't be able to sleep at night!

But, sigh!

Shikaku Nara was also right; the most important thing now was the Five Kage Summit, and signing a peace agreement was paramount.

Once the war was completely resolved, then he would push Minato Namikaze to power.

Next.

Only then would he be able to free up his hands to specifically target the Uchiha.

Hmm, that's fine too.

Let Uchiha Jin be arrogant for a while longer!

And Minato Namikaze had also replied to Jiraiya; if Jiraiya and Tsunade returned, although their philosophies were not quite the same.

But, similarly.

They would still stand on his side regarding the Uchiha.

In that case.

At least in terms of combat power, he wouldn't be afraid of the Uchiha for the time being.

Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief.

After taking a simple puff of his pipe, he took a deep breath and spoke.

"Hmm, very good!"

"Shikaku, what you said makes a lot of sense. Go contact Mifune of the Land of Iron as soon as possible."

"Be sure to gather the Five Kage in the Land of Iron in the shortest time possible."

"This war should also come to a complete end."

Shikaku Nara breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness!

He was most afraid that Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't listen, but now it seemed the effect was quite good.

As long as this Lord Hokage didn't do anything reckless, he was still confident he could win against Koji Nara.

"Understood, Lord Hokage."

He bowed slightly.

After agreeing directly, he didn't waste any more words and bowed his way out.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes narrowed slightly.

After Shikaku Nara left, his expression instantly turned gloomy, and a cold glint flickered in his eyes.

Bang!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he slammed his fist onto the desk.

"Uchiha Jin, you really deserve to die!"

"But it doesn't matter, let you be arrogant for two more days."

"Shikaku Nara is temporarily trustworthy."

"Through the Anbu investigations during this period, he and Koji Nara have had no communication, and he has been quite diligent in planning for me."

"Now, it's just waiting..."

"My primary goal is the Five Kage Summit, and then to push Minato Namikaze to power as soon as possible."

"As for the Uchiha side, wait until Jiraiya and Tsunade return."

"Although these two disciples are not of one mind with me, if I just ask them to target, guard against, and deal with the Uchiha, then I think there shouldn't be too much of a problem."

"After all, Tsunade, who comes from the Senju clan, is a natural enemy of the Uchiha!"

"As for Jiraiya, it's about the same."

"He is a person with great love in his heart, although he has always been searching for the so-called savior."

"But, similarly."

"He might not be hostile toward the Uchiha, but he is equally unwilling to let the Uchiha become Hokage."

"After all, the Uchiha's emotions are too unstable!"

"Hmm, very good!"

"As for this matter, I can inform Danzo."

"Let Danzo take the lead, use Jiraiya and Tsunade for defense, and push Minato Namikaze to the forefront, while I can once again hide in the shadows and plan slowly."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes flickered.

His brain began to spin wildly, and once he had completely thought the matter through, he immediately called for the Anbu.

He ordered them to inform Danzo of this matter as soon as possible.

After the Anbu left, he finally felt completely relaxed.

……

In fact.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions were actually completely unnecessary.

Because...

The news of Uchiha Jin killing the Third Raikage single-handedly, because it was so shocking and unexpected, had spread throughout the ninja world the very moment it happened.

Root spies were rooted in every major ninja village.

Therefore.

How could such important news be hidden from Danzo?

One could even say...

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't even know as many details about this news as Danzo did.

Therefore.

After listening to the Anbu's report, Danzo just let out a sneer of disdain, then dismissed the Anbu.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, you underestimate me too much!" ===== CHAPTER 756 =====
