Chapter 80: Commitment
By the time Danzou walked into the Hokage's office, Sarutobi had completely calmed down.
Now his immediate priority is to deal with the Uchiha clan. Only by exterminating the Uchiha clan can he get the elixir that will prolong his life and at the same time be his political career.
That's his number one priority right now. If this plan can't be completed, even if Danzou doesn't do anything, he can completely replace him and become the next Hokage, which is something he absolutely can't accept.
Fortunately, with the masked man's potion, he still has enough time to slowly clean up the group after dealing with the Uchiha clan.
As for political skill and patience, these are the two things he lacks most in his life.
"You're coming soonγγγγγγ"
Ape Fei Ri spoke slowly, without the previous impatience and anger. There is still the kind smile on his cheeks.
"Hmm."
Tuan Zang answered coldly, but did not sit down as usual.
"You arranged the medical examination report, right?"
Sarutobi smiled, not showing any annoyance.
"Huh?"
Tuan Zang was slightly stunned, and then met the questioning gaze of Ape Fei Ri without fear.
The two have known each other for many years and can read what they want from each other's eyes without words.
Almost at the same time, the two got the answers they wanted from each other.
The room fell silent, and the air became heavy, as if it could fall from the sky at any moment.
"Isn't that medical report telling the truth?"
Danzang said in a sarcastic tone:
"When did Konoha still not allow others to tell the truth?"
"It's a fact."
Ape Fei Ri didn't get angry, and there was a little more loneliness on his cheeks,
"No matter how powerful a ninja is, it is impossible to defeat time. That report was right, I would have lived another year or two at most. β
Tuan Zang looked at Ape Fei Ri with some surprise, as if he didn't expect him to admit it so frankly.
"You're younger than me, you're in much better health than me, and you still have plenty of time to fulfill your wishes."
A hint of pleading appeared on the face of the ape flying sun,
"Since the Hokage's position is yours sooner or later, why should you be in a hurry."
"Huh."
Tuan Zang sneered twice, obviously not impressed by Ape Fei Ri's superb acting skills,
"Tell me what you think."
His grim face was not moved in the slightest.
"The plan of the second generation teacher, about the Uchiha clan, I need your help."
"The person who is about to step into the coffin with one foot still remembers this matterγγγγγγ"
Tuan Zang shook his head,
"Shouldn't you think more about what happens after you?"
"I know that you and the Uchiha clan have reached an agreement, but the Uchiha clan is an immature tiger, and it is only a matter of time before the lord is devoured. Instead of raising tigers for trouble, it is better to get rid of peace of mind as soon as possible. As long as you help me get rid of the Uchiha clan, I'll nominate you as my successor immediately, how about it? β
The room fell silent again.
Danzou looked coldly at Sarutobi Hichicho, his gaze roaming over his face, as if assessing the feasibility of the other party's proposal.
"I'm not going to do anything, but I'm not going to interfere with your actions either."
Tuan Zang turned to leave, and stopped again when he walked to the door,
"This is the last time I'll help you, please do it yourself!"
After saying the last sentence, he left without looking back.
It was this promise of his that Ape Fei Ri wanted.
He is well aware of Danzang's ambitions, and Danzang is equally aware of his character.
For the position of Hokage, the two of them will have a battle sooner or later, and for now, it is only a temporary postponement of this battle.
As long as Tuanzang doesn't interfere, with his current strength, it will really take much effort to solve a mere Uchiha clan.
Satisfied, he lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.
The scent of tobacco mixed with the smell of power ripples in the air.
"When the Uchiha clan is eliminated, you'll be next."
In the purple smoke, Ape Flying Sun Slash smiled happily.
γγγγγγγγ
Uchiha Itachi quietly left the "roots".
After returning to the "root", Danzo immediately expressed his attitude to Itachi Uchiha: the Uchiha clan must rely on their own strength to survive this difficulty.
Since Danzang had no intention of becoming the backer behind the Uchiha clan, the previous agreement between the two became an empty word.
When leaving the "root", Danzo repeatedly kept him and promised that even if something happened to the Uchiha family, he would come forward to keep the Uchiha Itachi family safe, but the Uchiha Itachi still left without hesitation.
Although the only group that could compete with Sarutobi was compromised at the last moment, Uchiha Itachi was not disappointed.
Because after seeing the ape flying and slashing, the ambition in Tuan Zang's eyes did not decrease, but became more and more intense.
With the character of Tuan Zang, he will definitely not wait for the charity of the ape flying sun. When the opportunity is presented to him, what choice will he make?
"It's just that I want to get the maximum benefit at the lowest cost."
Uchiha Itachi strolled through the streets of Konoha with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.
A black cloud opened a gray-black curtain above his head and pressed down on him.
The storm is finally coming.
γγγγγγγγ
The turmoil over the medical examination report of the three generations of Hokage Ape Flying Sun Slash has not yet faded, and a new wave of news has once again shocked Konoha.
This time the news was about the death of a man.
That man was the most beloved person by the people of Konoha during his lifetime, and his name was "Bo Feng Shuimen".
Unlike the previous Hokage, who was born in a famous Konoha family, he was the first civilian Hokage in Konoha history, the first Hokage to be voted for by Konoha civilians, and the shortest-lived Hokage in history.
In order to save Konoha, during the Nine-Tails attack, he paid the price of his life for Konoha.
Although he has been in office for the shortest time, whether it was when he was the Hokage or after his death, he was a hero in the eyes of the people of Konoha and the most powerful Hokage in history.
He will always occupy the most important position in the hearts of every ordinary person in Konoha.
Previously, under the deliberate publicity of the Konoha higher-ups, the Nine-Tails attack had always been believed to have been planned by the Uchiha clan. It was also officially due to the frantic actions of the Uchiha clan that led to the death of Bo Feng Shuimon.
Because of the Nine-Tails Incident, the Uchiha clan was expelled from Konoha and the budget was reduced every year, and they were hostile to the vast majority of the Konoha people.
So, driven by no interests, why did the Uchiha clan drive the Nine-Tails to attack?
Is this a question that weighs on the minds of many people, but cannot be asked?
This time the news is like a sharp blade, cutting the deepest scars of people's old days.
