Konoha Village.
The information has been passed back.
The attempt by the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to sneak attack the Konoha headquarters caused a commotion.
Although the village had just defeated Kumogakure and Sunagakure, its own losses were also very huge. A large number of elites were fighting outside. If the seven ninja swordsmen succeeded in the sneak attack, they would definitely shake the morale of the Konoha army.
However, no one expected that it was Bai Yu and Konoha's first genin, Matt Dai, who took action to repel the seven ninja swordsmen.
Regarding this matter, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen expressed great importance. After leading the injured back to the village, he immediately summoned Matt Dai, promoted him to Jonin, and provided financial subsidies.
At this time, next door to the Hokage's office, four senior executives were discussing.
"I didn't expect Matt Dai to have such strength. I remember the teacher just proposed a concept for the ninjutsu of Eight Gate Dungeon, but a genin named Matt Dai actually developed this technique and practiced it to this extent. In When there is such a shortage of combat power, the appearance of a ninja like him is a rare good news for the village." Mito Kadoyan sighed.
"We must improve Metkai's treatment. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the training of taijutsu ninjas. I heard that Metkai has also learned the Eight Gate Dunjia."
Xiaochun said, turning to bed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "I have promoted him to Jonin. The most important thing in practicing Taijutsu is resources. The village will continue to support him in this regard."
"Well, this should be enough. The village has suffered too much in recent years, especially in terms of high-end combat power..." Mito Kadoyan sighed: "The departure of Kushina and Bai Yu has a great impact on the village." The impact on our prestige was too great.”
"This is my dereliction of duty." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked a little guilty.
Xiaochun went to bed and said, "This is not your responsibility."
Seeing that the three of them were going to bring the topic to the Sakumo incident again, Danzo said: "Instead of lamenting here, it is better to come up with a practical response plan! Isn't Orochimaru the teacher of Yagami Baiha? Wait until the war is over, and hurry up Let Orochimaru succeed the Fourth Hokage, and he will be able to maintain a friendly relationship with Yagami Shiroha. And with Tsunade's relationship, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki will not be at odds with Konoha."
Mito Kadoen said: "This is indeed a feasible method. This time on the Western Front, thanks to Orochimaru taking charge of the overall situation, he was able to hold off the Sunagakure army for three years under extremely unfavorable circumstances, and also regained Kikyo City. It is indeed The perfect choice for the Fourth Hokage. Hiruzen, what do you mean?"
"Orochimaru is indeed worthy of a great responsibility." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, but he noticed the change in Danzo's expression and felt a little hesitant.
Over the years, Orochimaru had made many secret transactions with Danzo behind his back, but all of them were hidden from him, the Third Hokage, which made him very worried.
Danzo is very reliable as a teammate and as an advisor to the Hokage.
Just decades of getting along with each other allowed Sarutobi Hiruzen to understand Danzo better than anyone else.
He can be a candidate to assist Hokage, but he is not suitable to be Hokage. He is very capable, but his ambition is stronger, and his ability cannot match his ambition.
If Konoha is left in Danzo's hands, it may go to extremes.
The exchange of interests between Orochimaru and Danzo has touched Sarutobi Hiruzen's bottom line.
Of course, Orochimaru is still Sarutobi Hiruzen's favorite candidate for the fourth generation, but before that, Danzo and Orochimaru must be beaten first.
Otherwise, when Orochimaru comes to power, Danzo's power will not be weakened, but will be greater. Orochimaru may one day be sidelined by Danzo. This is a situation that Sarutobi Hiruzen will never allow.
After experiencing the Sakumo incident and the escape of Shiroha and Kushina, even if Konoha won the third ninja war, its vitality would be severely damaged and it would definitely not be able to withstand the slightest bit of trouble from Danzo.
"Then the problem now is the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki." Danzo said suddenly.
"You want to trick Kushina?" Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, and Danzo was frightened when he heard this.
"Of course not, now Kushina has controlled the power of the Nine-Tails, and there are only a handful of ninjas in the entire ninja world who can fight her in a head-on confrontation.
Hiruzen, if you were more than ten years younger, you might be able to fight her. No one in Konoha is Kushina's opponent now.
To deal with the Jinchuuriki, sealing techniques are the key, but all the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan are under Kushina's control.
Even the death mask that used 'Zombie Sealing' was taken away by Kushina, and now no one can afford to offend her. "
Danzo said solemnly.
Before 'A' fully grows up, he won't be able to think about trouble with Kushina.
Xiaochun turned to bed and asked, "Then what do you mean?"
"As the strongest ninja village in Konoha, there has always been only one tailed beast, the Nine-Tails. Now that the Nine-Tails is lost, it has lost an important means of deterring other villages. Although the Nine-Tails cannot be recovered, we can create another false Nine-Tails. The tail jinchuriki comes out!" Danzo explained.
"Pseudo Jinchuuriki?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned when he heard this: "I'm afraid Kushina won't hand over the Kyuubi's chakra easily, even if it's only part of it, this way won't work."
"If we want to trade, I'm afraid they will raise the price and make us pay a huge price." Mito Kadoyan shook his head.
"Who said that Kushina's chakra can only be found in Kushina." Danzo snorted coldly: "Don't forget, the original Golden Horn and Silver Horn were the same because they ate the flesh and blood of the Nine-tailed Chakra. , only then did he master the power of the nine tails and complete part of the tailed beast transformation, otherwise with the strength of the teacher, how could he die in their hands."
"Golden Horn? Silver Horn?!" Koharu asked when he went to bed: "Danzo, what do you mean? Golden Horn and Silver Horn have been dead for decades. Is there still a way to find them and take out the Nine-Tails? Carat?”
"Danzo, you!" Sarutobi Hiruzen looked startled, then he reacted and finally understood what Danzo meant.
Danzo said solemnly: "Yes, it's what you think, the art of reincarnation in the dirty earth! A art that can resurrect the dead. As long as the body tissues of Golden Horn and Silver Horn are found, there is a way to resurrect them, and then extract them from their bodies. Take out the Nine-Tails Chakra from your body."
"Reincarnation in the dirt?!" Mito Kadoyan was stunned.
There are many forbidden techniques in Konoha, most of which were left behind by their teacher, the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama. Some of the forbidden techniques are half-finished. They have not been used since he and Koharu, who moved to another dormitory, were responsible for the logistics. On the battlefield, after so many years, the strength of the two of them has probably degraded to the level of ordinary jounin, so even if they have reading permission, they have not seen most of Konoha's forbidden techniques.
Sarutobi Hiruzen explained: "This technique is a forbidden psychic technique developed by the teacher. It can summon the souls of long-dead ninjas back to the world and resurrect them in physical form.
However, this technique requires extracting a certain amount of body tissue from the deceased, using the body of a living person as a container for the soul of the deceased, allowing the soul of the deceased to attach to the container, and covering the body of the living with dust, thus transforming it into the appearance of the deceased. The reincarnated person is controlled by the caster.
Because the teacher felt that this technique would blaspheme the souls of the dead, he stopped further research when it was about to be developed and sealed the technique as a forbidden technique. Even the book of seals did not record this forbidden technique.
In Konoha now, only Danzo and I know about the existence of this forbidden technique. "
When she went to bed, Xiaochun's face turned cold. If she was resurrected after death and then controlled by others, the feeling would be worse than death.
"So what? The Golden Horn and the Silver Horn are enemies, not our companions. As for the living sacrifices, just use death row prisoners and enemy spies." Danzo said nonchalantly. If the sacrifices are not enough, use the roots. He can also do things like making sacrifices for his subordinates, as long as he doesn't use members from the ninja clan.
"This forbidden technique has not been completed yet, so there may be great hidden dangers." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked hesitant.
Danzo thought for a moment, knowing that Hiruzen's behavior meant that he had approved his proposal, but he was sticking to his hypocritical justice, and continued:
"Teacher has completed 80% to 90% of this technique. Is there still no ninja in Konoha who has fully developed this technique? As long as this technique is completely completed, hidden dangers can be eliminated.
As for the matter of collecting gold and silver horn body tissues, leave it to the roots to handle. I promise that it will be foolproof and won't let Kumogakure find out that it was Konoha who did it. "
"Even so, where is the candidate for the Jinchuuriki?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked next.
"There are so many members of the Uzumaki clan living in the ninja world, and they can always be found. They didn't come to Konoha before because the village didn't have a large-scale search. Now that Kushina has rebuilt the Uzumaki clan, it's not just right for us to help find the Uzumaki clan. Bear with it. Part of the Nine-Tails chakra becomes a pseudo-Jinchuuriki, and it is easier to master the power of the Nine-Tails."
Danzo said.
Sarutobi Hiruzen: "If you do this, Kushina's side..."
"As long as the other party stays in Konoha voluntarily, there is nothing to blame even if Kushina is the leader of the Uzumaki clan."
Danzo said firmly:
"Hiruzhan, do you want what happened at the last meeting to happen again? Can Kushina and Shiroha propose to leave Konoha in public, and take you, the third generation, into consideration?
Even with Orochimaru's relationship, no one can guarantee that they will not make more excessive demands in the future, so the alliance with Konoha is only because the Uzumaki clan still needs time to recover.
It is not impossible for them to regain independence and establish the Kingdom of Whirlpool in the future.
After all, only one's own strength is the key. "
Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."
Danzo continued: "With the art of reincarnation, we can even channel the first-generation masters and teachers, as well as Mito-sama in the future. In this way, the initiative will be returned to our hands. Only in this way, Konoha Ninja The strongest ninja village in the world deserves its name. Even if another ninja war breaks out in the future, we don't need to ask outsiders for help."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a long time, and said quietly:
"This must be done in secret."
