land of fire.

A small town on the border.​​

Danzo was sitting in a hotel room with a map of the land of Fire in front of him.

Recently, he had several encounters with Kirigakure shinobi who tried to provoke Konoha.

"The war will start sooner or later, you are always too soft and indecisive, Hiruzen....a preemptive strike is the best solution. "

Danzo muttered slowly as he carefully examined the map.

In his eyes, Hiruzen's behavior was too indecisive and conservative, he just responds to the movements of other villages, but in the current situation, it would be much more effective to start a war and strike a decisive blow at one of the villages.

If the current Konoha will gather all their forces in a single fist, it will not be so difficult to crush one village, but if they are attacked simultaneously by several villages and get involved in a protracted war, the situation will become very troublesome.

According to Danzo, Hiruzen simply does not have enough courage and determination to initiate a war, but this is the only way to unite the entire world of shinobi, a huge number of victims is inevitable.

Fuh!

when Danzo carefully considered the map and considered how to act against Kiri in the future, the shinobi Root appeared in the room.

Danzo didn't even look at him, but continued to look at katu: "How are things in the village?"

Although Danzo himself was on the border Of the land of Fire, but a few shinobi Root remained in Konoha, to control and monitor the situation, from time to time they reported to him.

The voice of shinobi Root was emotionless: "the Opinion of Lord Hokage has not changed, you must continue to act in the same way...Orochimaru returned to the village with some information about Sunagakura, specific details are unknown..."

shinobi Root reported all the information received recently, starting with the most important and ending with the least significant.

Danzo listened to the report in silence.

Almost half an hour later, shinobi Root said:"...older brother Kakashi killed the elite scout Kiri, presumably, Erase has higher power and talent than Kakashi."

"What?"

In the eyes of Danzo flashed a surprise.

This was not so important compared to the previous information, but the fact is that all the previous information was in line with his expectations, and this was a complete surprise.

"Is the information reliable? "

" Yes. "

shinobi Root nodded affirmatively.

Danzo narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully: "The eldest son of Sakumo has such a talent, but chose to hide it..."

Sakumo's death is indeed directly related to him, but that wasn't His original intention.

Sakumo's rejection of the mission to save his comrades was just an accident, but He actively influenced public opinion, and manipulated the rescued shinobi to give up their guilt and blame Skakumo for everything.

The original intention was to suppress Sakumo's authority.

Because at that time, Sakumo was the main contender for the post of fourth Hokage and had the support of Hiruzen, he certainly couldn't stand to watch Sakumo become a Hokage.

But suddenly, Sakumo placed all the blame on himself and committed suicide...this was not his original intention, after all, although they did not get along, but still White Fang was a strong weapon of Konoha.

If he had taken the post of Hokage, sakumo might have been a great tool in His hands.

Danzo thought, and turned to the shinobi of Root: "...

although Yeruashi made danzo think about some things, but now He is on the border Of the land of Fire and is dealing with Kirigakure, he has no time to worry about such matters, and will have to wait until he returns to the village.

Shinobi Root nodded and continued the report.

In the forest on the territory of Konoha.

It had been two months since Kiri's scout was killed.

During this time, Yeruashi as usual continued to attend the shinobi Academy, after the incident with Hyuga Meng, the students began to look at him with some respect, and the girls were even more fascinated by him.

It is so easy to defeat Hyuga Meng, perhaps Yeruashi has already reached the level of Chuunin, although he is not as good as Kakashi, but definitely not inferior too much!

Now the girls in the class began to act even more "excessively", this made Yeruashi helpless.

Two months.

The practice was very fruitful.

His actual age is just over nine years old, but due to the ability to accelerate time, the age of the physical body is gradually approaching eleven years, physical strength and chakra are steadily increasing, now they have reached the level of an elite Chuunin.

In addition, although the kenjutsu Hatake did not advance to the 2nd stage, but now he can open the 1st and 2nd gates of Hachimon Tonko!

Ha! Ha!!!

In a clearing amid the forest of Erase hard do physical exercise.

"The third gate is close..."

Yeruashi stopped training and took a few deep breaths, feeling that the shackles of the third gate had not yet loosened enough to be broken without much consequences.

Opening the third gate should bring a qualitative change.

The first gate allows you to use the physical capabilities of the body one hundred percent, although the increase was noticeable, but not too much, the second gate has a greater effect on recovery and endurance, only the third should provide a real surge of strength.

"If you can open the third gate...combining them with kenjutsu Hatake, even without time acceleration, I should have the power of Tokubetsu Jounin."

After mastering the hachimon Subtly, its strength becomes difficult to assess in accordance with standard rank criteria, because opponents who are not able to respond to its speed will be crushed in the blink of an eye.

Only Uchiha with Sharingan or Hyuga with Byakugan can hardly resist him, but this is just a qualification for entering the battle, because it is clear to see the movements...doesn't mean keeping up with them!
