Chapter 300: Eradication

Even though there is still a lot of work to be done after the war, the disappearance of a strong enemy is always a blessing.

When Shikamaru and Naruto Uzumaki followed the team composed of Nara Shikaku, Yamanaka Kaichi, and Akido Dingza back to the village, and finally killed Nagato and won the news that Shikamaru had won, Konoha Ninja and ordinary villagers all breathed a sigh of relief, and some villagers who didn't know that Jiraiya had died even cheered.

It's just that this result is not what everyone in Konoha Village is hoping for.

At the beginning of Nagato's attack on Konoha, Shimura Danzou took the opportunity to gather the ninjas who obeyed his orders, including the ninjas who were still serving the "root" in secret, as well as some of the forces within the shadows. There are quite a few of these people, and they are all hiding in the underground base with Danzang.

Danzou waited for news with the servant, his ambition to become the Hokage had been suppressed for decades, and after three Hokage successions, he was already a little impatient.

He no longer wants to rely on the so-called fame and the support of the villagers, and he wants to rely on his own means to become the Hokage. He who planted Uchiha Itachi in "Akatsuki" knew the strength of these traitorous ninjas, and since he dared to attack Konoha Village, he definitely didn't come to send him to death.

This is Konoha Village, and both Tsunade and Jiraiya must go all out to fight the enemy and protect Naruto Uzumaki, but with Xiao's strength, I'm afraid that even if the two of them win, it will only be a miserable victory.

A ninja village, especially a ninja village that has attracted the attention of all parties, cannot be without a leader. Konoha Village has just been attacked, and even being beaten to the doorstep, the news must not be hidden, at this time, whether it is presiding over the work of the village or dealing with other forces externally, it is necessary to have the backbone to maintain the confidence of the ninja village, and a Hokage who is still bandaged and weak will definitely not be able to do it.

Shimura Danzo's face was calm, but it was clear from his hands gripping his crutches that he was not calm, and now what Konoha needed was a tough Hokage, and this was his chance.

After Konoha Village suffered this disaster, retreating to the outside world would not solve the slightest problem, but would expose the nature of its own weakness, but if it showed a tough attitude to the outside world when its own strength was not enough, it would inevitably appear to be fierce and inward-looking.

Even if Shimura Tuanzang has a bad reputation in the ninja world, it can barely be regarded as fierce, and the most important thing is that as long as you have heard of his name, you will not be unclear about the political position of his martial arts faction, unless he is iron-hearted to go against Konoha Village, no one wants to easily provoke Konoha Village under the rule of Shimura Danzo, this is external.

Internally, as one of the five great ninja villages, he was attacked twice in three years, and even hit the village, whether it was the Daimyo of the Fire Country or the people of Konoha Village, they would definitely feel disgraced.

Few daimyo and ordinary villagers who don't know much about the construction of the ninja village will understand the Taoguang Yangrui policy formulated by the three generations of Hokage, and most people will think that this is a conservative policy led by the three generations of Hokage, which is too restrained to be despised by others.

This will also be one of the reasons why Shimura Danzou attacked Tsunade and put himself on the throne.

The base located underground is a little dark, and Shimura Danzo, who hides most of his face in the shadows, smiles slightly, feeling that his success rate of inheriting the Hokage is not small.

This complacent attitude reached its peak when the news came that Jiraiya and Tsunade were not enemies, but when his subordinates reported the news of Shikamaru's return to the village to him, it was like someone poured a basin of cold water on his head, and Shimura Danzo's excitement suddenly disappeared.

"Nara Shikamaru won the victory and returned to the village with Naruto Uzumaki."

Listening to the subordinates wearing the mask of the dark part tell him about the situation, even with Shimura Danzo's ability to control his emotions, he can no longer hide the anger on his face.

Shimura Danzo's eyes narrowed subconsciously, he knew that if he missed this opportunity, the chance of becoming the Hokage again would be very slim!

…………

After the victory over Nagato, although the war is over, it does not mean that the villagers of Konoha can relax.

Post-disaster reconstruction is a top priority, even if Shikamaru uses "white magic. Nature's Birthday" protected Konoha Village from being almost razed to the ground under the super "Shinra Heavenly Expedition" of Tendo like the original book, but there were also many buildings that were destroyed, especially the central area where the two fought and had become ruins.

The casualties of the ninjas and villagers in the village have been much lower than in the original book, but before Shikamaru returned to the village, Payne Rokudo's behavior of creating riots everywhere still caused some casualties, and now most of the ninjas in Konoha are engaged in busy rescue work, combing the affected area, and treating the injured, which is not simple and very tedious.

Because many villagers' houses have been destroyed and many of the injured are being injured, many tents have been erected in the village, and Kato Shizun has been walking all the way, listening to the moans of the patients and the sound of the medical ninja giving urgent orders to his assistants, and his mood is somewhat irritated.

Tsunade passed out after hearing the news of Jiraiya's death, and although Shizune Kato was worried about her physical condition and didn't want to leave her side, he remembered what Tsunade had done to him before, and he came to the tent area at this time.

Shizune Kato made it all the way to a tent standing in a slightly remote corner at the edge of the tent area, with two shadow ninjas standing on the periphery.

Shizune knew that their figure was responsible for monitoring the target in this tent, but including the two ninjas themselves, the vast majority of ninjas in Konoha Village knew that the target in this tent really wanted to leave, and now no one in Konoha could stop him at all.

The shadow ninjas who can work immediately after the war are basically people who can be trusted by Tsunade, and Shizune Kato handed the certificate to one of the ninjas, and the other party didn't embarrass her, and just let her in after a little inspection.

Kato Shizune sighed in her heart, the other party is just for show, the task of these two ninjas is to "monitor", and it is just "monitoring", she received the news before, and many people have been here.

Sure enough, when Kato Shizun lifted the tent cover, everyone in the tent almost immediately turned their eyes on her.

Hinata Ninji, Haruno Sakura, and Amazo, the three who once followed Shikamaru to leave Konoha, although they have not yet been characterized as traitorous ninjas, they are inevitably looked at by some Konoha ninjas in a strange way, so they relieved their work tasks and came to Shikamaru's side.

Oil girl Shino, Inuzuka Ya, Hinata Hinata, Tian Tian, Naruto Uzumaki and others are either in the same class as Shikamaru, or have a good relationship, and the companions who came to visit Shikamaru and return to the village at this time are not mentioned.

Kato's gaze swept over several people and landed on three young men, one man and one woman.

Yamanaka, Akimichi, and Nara ......, as I expected, Kato Shizune frowned slightly. These three tribes have their own characteristics in appearance and hairstyle, and they even have family crests sewn on the obvious part of their clothes, so she knows their identity at a glance.

Except for the older Tenzo, including the young representatives of the Pig, Deer and Butterfly clans, everyone in the house at this time can be called the most outstanding group of ninjas of the younger generation in Konoha Village, but they are only guests in this tent, and their achievements are really insignificant compared to the hosts.

Shikamaru, who was sitting opposite the door, looked calm, but it didn't make people feel cold and arrogant, he sat on an ordinary wooden chair that was the same as everyone else's, but even if it was just by feeling, Kato Shizun couldn't tell the priority in the tent, as the representative of the three clans of pigs, deer and butterflies, or Tianzo grew up in Shikamaru's age, and now he was willing to be his foil, and everyone in the room talked about the strength of the aura, and no one could beat it.

Shizune Kato can somewhat understand the mood of everyone in the room subconsciously lowering their posture, as long as he has seen the scene of Shikamaru's fierce battle with Tendo, the scene where the super "Shinra Celestial Sign" and the towering giant tree summoned by "Nature's Birthday" compete with each other, it is difficult not to be afraid of Shikamaru's power.

"Senior Sister Mute." Shikamaru's voice was unexpectedly gentle, and when he saw Kato silently walk into the tent, he got up and greeted him, as if he was the master here, not a "traitorous ninja" who was embarrassed and watched.

"Shikamaru." Kato Shizune barely showed a smile, she is an excellent female ninja in the end, her psychological quality is naturally not low, and Shikamaru has a gentle attitude, but she instantly regained her mental state, and after glancing at everyone in the room, she said, "I have something I want to talk to you about." ”

"Oh?" Shikamaru saw Kato Shizune's serious expression, his heart moved, and he nodded lightly to Hinata Ningji, who came over.

Hinata Ninji had already discovered the obvious action of Kato Shizun sweeping towards everyone before, and knew that the two had something to discuss, and Shikamaru was not willing to drive people out in person, so he got up and said: "Now that Konoha Village is in urgent need of manpower, I think it's not good for us to chat here now." ”

As soon as Hinata Ningci's words came out, the other people didn't want to stay longer, although a few smart people knew Hinata Ningci's intentions, they didn't break it, and left with everyone.

Shizune Kato watched these ninjas leave one by one, she would not underestimate these young people, their strength was only one of them, and what she wanted in the end was the potential in her body.

Oil girl Shino, Hinata Hinata, Inuzuka Ya, plus the three representatives of Pig Deer Butterfly, and Ino and Dingji, who are still outside. These young people are either the most powerful ninjas in the younger generation of the clan, representing the future of their clan, or their parents are important people in the clan or even the head of the family, and the power they represent behind them cannot be taken lightly.

And as far as Kato Shizun knows, Chiba Gen of the medical class, Ape Fei Asma has also been here.

If Tsunade's instructions are done well, Shikamaru will be able to successfully return to Konoha.

Operations, medical care, logistics, education, reconnaissance ......, Konoha Xiaoqiang, who has been imperceptibly influenced by Shikamaru for more than ten years, has grown, plus the elders behind them, and some of the connections and prestige they have accumulated, it is impossible to talk about control, but Shikamaru's influence now seems to be not small, enough to penetrate into many important departments.

It seems that Tsunade-sama's idea of promising Shikamaru to become the deputy head of the dark department was not a whim, Kato Shizune thought.

"If there's anything you can say, Senior Sister Mute." Shikamaru saw the others leave one by one, so he said to Kato Shizun.

"Tsunade-sama is already unconscious, and I don't know when I'll be able to wake up yet," Kato Shizune exhaled lightly, walked into the chair next to Shikamaru and sat down, and whispered, "She told me before she fell unconscious, find you, tell you something, and also want to ask you to help her, which is also a great favor for Konoha." ”

"What's the matter?" Shikamaru looked at Kato Shizune's cautious posture and guessed, but he still asked.

"When the enemy of the Shimura group hid in the 'Akatsuki' organization attacked, they privately mobilized the ninjas of the dark side to fight and sat back and watched the enemy wreak havoc in the village." Kato Shizune looked at Shikamaru's dark eyes and said word by word, "He has become a cancer in the village's high-rises, and Tsunade-sama wants you to help get rid of him!" ”
