Chapter 1: The Shadow of Peace
Konoha 43 years.
It was dark, and the sun was shining brightly. But if people's hearts are darkened, what should guide them?
Somewhere in Konoha's base, in the past twenty years, it has become more and more dark and inhuman. Ninja of Root, no name, no feelings. I only know how to obey orders, like a zombie, pure machine attributes, pitiful and hateful!
It has been four or five years since the second ninja war. When the whole ninja tended to be peaceful, there was a man who walked in the darkness during this time, and did the dark, cold-blooded and unspeakable things.
Shimura Danzo!
The companions and friends of the three generations of apes when they were young have a deep bond with each other. In modern language, the two are full of affection, and their love is deep, you and me. After losing the competition for the position of Hokage, the Shimura group formed the Root Shadow Department with the help of the guilt of Sarutobi and the Hokage's ambition for the position of Konoha Hokage.
When any organization is first built, it doesn't always go so well. The "root" organization of Shimura Danzo has come through a very difficult journey. With the jewel of the Hokage's shadow department in front, who in the village still enters the nameless "root" department?
As a result, excellent ninjas are proud to enter the shadows. The only thing that the "root" department can absorb is a group of people with low ninja talents. And when they are old, they can change very little in terms of personality, so the first generation of the root organization is a failure. Not only that, in the next 20 years, more than 10 generations have passed, and the replacement of the old with the new is still a failure.
In this long period of time, Shimura Danzo finally summed up a set of truths that belonged to and suited him.
hidden, dormant, spitned, blood, sin, human ......
Leaves, stretching out to the place of warm sunshine; Roots, deep into the dark dirt. Since the position of the Hokage is out of reach, then he should be a person who hides in the darkness and behind the scenes. Strangle all those who affect the peace of Konoha and those who are a threat to Konoha. Even if you become an abomined butcher with blood on your hands, you will not hesitate!
For more than 20 years since the establishment of the Zhigen organization, Tuanzang's heart has been changing and swaying. has been hovering over the supremacy of Konoha's interests, or the identity of the Konoha Hokage's unreachable controller......
When Shimura Danzou was about to give up, the end of the second ninja war gave him hope. The orphans who are displaced and living in the ninja world, the orphans left behind by the excellent ninjas who died in the war, the children who have terrible talents but are not guided by the people who have a heart, and who are not yet mature but worthy of transformation.
The future of Konoha?
The hope of Shimura Danzo!
The years cannot be copied, and the older you get. As the Hokage, Sarutobi has gradually forgotten the battle between ninjas, and indulged in the title of the so-called strongest in Konoha and the male of the ninja world, unable to extricate himself and resting on his laurels...... Belong to the same generation as Shimura Danzo, and they have always been competitors to each other, who is stronger and whom? Who has lost whom?
A striving for the top, continuing to sprint the road of ninja, difficult efforts and progress. A "deserted" ninja gradually lost his fighting spirit in a comfortable life.
Ninjas, like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat!
……
Konoha has an elder group, which has a pivotal position in Konoha. And the advisor of the Konoha Elder Group is the representative of the Elder Group, and to a certain extent, can influence the decision-making of the Konoha Hokage!
Konoha Advisors - Transfer to Koharu, Mito Menyan.
The elders in the group of elders are either the older generation of strong people in Konoha, or the patriarchs of certain families in Konoha or a group of people with extremely high status in the clan. Mito Menyan and Koharu Tsunako lead this group of people, and they can be called the first powerful people under the Hokage Ape Flying Sun, which is stronger than the root organization of Shimura Danzo.
But in fact, no.
Secret, it's secret. It's not that no one knows about it, it's that very few people do. But, after all, someone will know that in this world, there is no impermeable wall.
How Mito Menyan and Koharu became advisors to the Konoha Elders at a young age in the first place, this secret will eventually be leaked out and let people know. And the person who leaked this secret was none other than Shimura Danzo!
Shimura Danzou can actually be regarded as an advisor to Konoha's elder group, but it's much worse than Koharu and Mito Menyan, and others play politics. In particular, although Koharu and Mito Menyan are not husband and wife, they have always been in and out of pairs, respecting each other like guests, and if you want to say that there is no story of compassion between the two that has to be said, Shimura Tuanzo doesn't believe it.
Shimura Danzo was deeply influenced by the second generation of the Senju Kazuma, and once thought that the dark part created by Kazuma was the ultimate power of Konoha! But the Shadow Department belongs to the Hokage, so he gave up the political struggle with Koharu and Menyan, and wanted to form a root organization no less than the Shadow Department.
But where did he think that the elder group was the most terrifying existence in Konoha!
Even if that group of elders is twilight, far from being as brave as they used to be, but they can't do it, it doesn't mean that the forces behind them can't. It didn't take long for Shimura Danzou to regret it. But regret is no longer helpful, and the current elder group can no longer tolerate the involvement of the group treasure. Therefore, he just pitted Koharu and Mito Menyan and pulled them off the altar!
This pit is enough to pit Koharu and Mito Menyan for twenty-six years!
In the beginning, only the Uchiha and Hyuga did not follow the orders of their two Konoha advisors. However, after the secret was revealed, one-third of the people defected, more than half of them watched from the wall, and most of the rest were wall-to-wall grass, belonging to the two-headed figures.
Who leaked this secret?
Mito Menyan and Koharu locked the suspects on the bodies of Shimura Danzou and Sarutobi Hiza. And the biggest object of suspicion is the ape flying sun. Seeing that the two of them are big and threaten the status of the Konoha Hokage, Sarutobi is really not the second choice. As for Shimura Danzo, this man who has made no achievements for more than 20 years has gradually been ignored by them.
The days of Xiaochun and Watergate Gate were very aggrieved. Konoha Advisor sounds really good.
Moreover, in some matters, the Hokage of Sarutobi did have to consult with them and listen to their opinions. But when it came to a major event, he directly ignored their right to speak, and acted arbitrarily and made a decision. Even if you know it, you can't do anything about it. There's no way, who calls someone else the Hokage, and he doesn't have the strength to compete with it?
Shimura Danzou is an ambitious man. In the Konoha high-rise, it's not a secret. And the two advisers, Koharu and Mito Menyan, have always been watching and ignoring them. It wasn't until recent years that Shimura's actions became more and more frequent, and the two advisors finally discovered a big problem - the power of the group is growing!
In the eyes of the two consultants, it was just a small fight with Orochimaru.
No matter how much Orochimaru is and how threatening he is, as long as they casually slash at Ape Feiri: Orochimaru is conducting a forbidden experiment on the human body. At that time, no matter how much Ape Fei cared about Orochimaru's disciple, there was only one end for Orochimaru - to be strangled or expelled!
In the case of Orochimaru, the two advisors didn't care at all. But absorb people from outside the village and integrate fresh blood, especially after the war, the young guys who have lost their loved ones, the helplessness and hesitation in their hearts and the desire to survive, the means of organizing the group to hide...... The two advisors only saw four words - military power!
Yes, precisely the military power of the future. This is also what Koharu and Mito Menyan are most lacking right now. As a consultant, not to mention corruption, there are a lot of filial piety in others, money has long been available, but it is difficult to spend money - how to make full and reasonable use of it has always been a problem for this pair of men and women who are in love with adultery.
Finally, the third party who strives for the upper reaches of Shimura Danzou appeared, forming a triangular relationship.
Konoha Root Organization Base.
This is not the first time that Koharu and Mito Menyan have seen Shimura Danzo in this dark and gloomy place, and in the past two years, the three of them have had several secret trysts, but unfortunately none of them reached an agreement.
And this time, the two of them, Koharu and Mito Menyan, who had never compromised, had to compromise, and the fundamental reason was that the two saw the opportunity for the outbreak of the third ninja war!
In fact, it was easy to make the third ninja war break out, and the more time passed, the more turbulent the ninja world became, and after reaching a fixed point, it shattered like a balloon. It's just obvious that only those who really grasp the time of the outbreak of the ninja war can be the most fully prepared and get the maximum benefits.
As for this opportunity, the two advisers have already grasped it.
Three hours ago, they had received the shocking news that a powerful "S" class renegade had accepted a mission at the Bounty Club to assassinate the third generation of the Wind Country's Sand Ninja Village!
