Chapter 147: The Patriarch

Compared to Nara Yoshino, the worry in Nara's eyes is not just for the injury of Shikamaru in front of him, the death of the three generations of Hokage Ape Fei Hiza not only makes Konoha a little weaker in the outside world, but some problems in the village will also be exposed, although Sarufei Hiza is old, but when it comes to prestige, there is no one in Konoha Village who can be compared with him, there is no other existence zài, all problems and unstable factors can be suppressed, which naturally includes a certain ambitious figure - Shimura Danzo.

Nara Shikaku still clearly remembers that Nara Shikamaru once unceremoniously rejected Shimura Danzo's olive branch, and Shimura Danzang naturally did not have the slightest chance to make some small moves against Shikamaru to retaliate, but at this time, it may not be.

Although Shikamaru made great efforts to prevent Shouhe from destroying Konoha, it is a pity that at this time, the entire Konoha Village was still immersed in the environment of rebuilding order after the war, and Morino Hiki did not have time to write a report to report Shikamaru's deeds to Konoha Village, and this matter did not spread in Konoha Village, that is, this qiē was not an established fact.

When this deed spreads in Konoha Village, with Shikamaru's popularity at that time, Shimura Danzou will have to think carefully if he wants to embarrass Shikamaru on the bright side, but before this, now this kind of moment when the vast majority of people in Konoha Village are busy with work and have no intention of caring about anything else, it is a good time for Shimura Danzou to solve Shikamaru's small "unstable factor".

Never underestimate the ruthlessness of the superiors, and don't have illusions about the heart of a paranoid and ruthless careerist, even if it is the Uchiha clan or a genius like Uchiha Itachi, the Konoha higher-ups can sit back and watch it fall and leave Konoha Village, and in order to become the Hokage, Shimura Danzou can also ignore Payne's attack.

At this time, Shikamaru Shikamaru should be a young man who has some talent, but does not know the current affairs, the five generations of Hokage are undecided, and he himself is one of the three elder advisors of Konoha second only to Hokage.

In Shimura Danzo's view, Shikamaru dared to refuse his solicitation by virtue of his humble and lowly status, which was in itself disrespectful to Konoha management, and he had already revealed signs of violating the leader's intentions at a young age, and it should be stifled at this time to prevent him from growing into another Orochimaru.

As for Shikamaru going against Shimura Danzo's wishes, he equated it with going against Konoha's will, which is a matter of course for an old man who firmly believes that he is the savior of the ninja world.

…………

For the next two days, Nara's Shikamaru was surrounded by many people of all shapes and sizes, but one thing was very similar, they all had a long ponytail tied behind their heads, which was very distinct.

At this moment, an old man with white hair but also a ponytail, in good spirits, was sitting next to Shikamaru's hospital bed, taking out an apple from the fruit basket and slowly peeling it for Shikamaru.

The old man was tall, slightly thin, with a kind smile on his face, but despite this, his right hand holding the knife was unusually steady, and he was peeling the skin while talking to Shikamaru with a respectful expression, and around Shikamaru's hospital bed there were two young ninjas standing or standing.

They are all members of the Nara clan, and this seemingly gentle old man is the contemporary patriarch of the Nara clan, the head of the family who manages the affairs of the clan and the cultivation of medicinal herbs, Nara Heisuke.

It is not uncommon for Heisuke Nara, who is already old, to be the head of the Nara clan.

In Konoha Village, including most of the ninja clans in the ninja world, the head of the clan does not simply need to be superb, the head of the clan not only means that he has great power, but also shows that he has to take on the responsibility of seeking benefits for the whole clan and always thinking about the development of the clan.

Superior strength can sometimes compete for more benefits for the clan, but this is not always the case, unless the person is an indispensable existence in an organization, not to mention, the Nara clan is not a ninja clan known for its combat effectiveness.

There may be a lot of open and secret battles in the battle for the position of the patriarch, but in the final analysis, it is still within restraint, and it will not do something to hurt itself, after all, the Nara clan itself is not as good as Hyuga and other big clans, and the candidates for the position of patriarch are still in the interests of all clansmen.

Nara Heisuke is an old man of the same age as the ape flying day slash, the time of the two graduation is only one year apart, when the ape flying day slash is active in the ninja world, Nara Heisuke also has a lot of contact with the other party, and has provided a lot of help, so when the ape flying day slash is in office, it has always been the head of the Nara clan by Nara Heisuke, too low generation often makes the competition for interests is weak, especially in the case of the other party is still the Hokage, Nara Heisuke not only has a friendship with the ape flying day slash, but also has a relationship with the patriarch of the Nara clan, With a certain amount of confidence, whether it is seniority or status, he has the qualifications to fight for the interests of the Nara family.

However, if it is Tsunade or Jiraiya who succeeds the fifth generation of Hokage, it is not suitable for Heisuke Nara to be the head again, with his seniority, arguing with the two will often be suspected of relying on the old and selling the old, which will inevitably be unhappy for the head of a village, and it is not good to have dirty.

However, this qiē can not be mentioned for the time being, the purpose of Nara Heisuke coming here is still for Shikamaru, on the surface, of course, it is to visit the rising star of the Nara clan as a patriarch, and Nara Shikamaru has gained face for the Nara clan, but at this moment when Konoha desperately needs medicinal materials to cooperate with medical ninjas to help the injured, the patriarch of the Nara clan, who is responsible for supplying most of the medicinal materials in the village, did not stay in the clan to dispatch and command management, but sat beside Shikamaru for a long time, as long as it is a discerning person, he knows that there are some problems.

A sound of footsteps came from the hallway outside the hospital room.

Shikamaru's ears moved slightly, and he couldn't help frowning, he was sure that this voice was not the medical staff in the hospital, this did not mean that his hearing was magical enough to distinguish the identity of the person who came, but the footsteps that came were not impatient and chaotic, it seemed orderly and rhythmic, in contrast, because of the busy work these days, the medical staff in this hospital always seemed a little urgent, and the footsteps were hurried between walks, which was very obvious.

The sound of footsteps disappeared after reaching the door of Shikamaru's ward, as if the visitor was brewing love or thinking about something, and after a while, the visitor did not knock on the door, and directly pushed open the door and walked into the ward.

This made Heisuke Nara, who had just peeled the apple, frown slightly, and from this point of view, the attitude of the visitor did not seem to be polite.

The man who pushed open the door and strode into the ward was dressed in a tawny trench coat, wrapped his body tightly with his pocket, and wore a fox mask on his face, which showed that he seemed to be the dark part of Konoha Village, or a captain-level senior dark department, and he was followed by two dark men wearing black trench coats and also wearing animal masks, which should be his subordinates.

This Konoha Shadow didn't seem to expect to see Heisuke Nara here, as well as two young ninjas from the Nara clan, and were slightly stunned, although Shikamaru and the others couldn't see the expression under his mask clearly, but a moment of silence had already expressed this very well.

"Nara Shikamaru, the village needs to learn more about the battle between you and Sakure Village," After a while, the dark army leader finally spoke, and said to Shikamaru on the hospital bed in a slightly stiff tone, "I hope you can come with us." ”

Shikamaru didn't move, and even when he was talking in the shadows, he didn't even look at the other party, but just lowered his eyebrows and obediently accepted the peeled apple handed over by Heisuke Nara, which was a humble junior gesture.

Since Heisuke Nara was present, and Shikamaru vaguely understood the reason why the other party stayed here, he really didn't need to speak now.
