The former squad leader of the Jonin Class, the current squad leader of the Analysis Class, and a direct subordinate of the Second Hokage.
The leaders of the three pig, deer and butterfly tribes traveled together, and the accompanying team was also suspected of carrying two corpses...
Rao is the Uchiha police force responsible for the security of Konoha, and he does not dare to block and interrogate this team at will, allowing the other party to pass unimpeded in Konoha Village.
As for Nara Langui and Yakushi Nonoyu, who were silently following the big bosses, they were naturally ignored by the crowd, even though they were the victims of this incident...
The Inorika Butterfly team arrived at the foot of the Hokage Building very quickly.
After a formal briefing, the Inokadie team arrived at the Hokage's office on the top floor of the Hokage Building very smoothly.
"Fengfeng, Luye, Hairen, Lujiu."
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting behind his desk, frowned and called out the names of several bosses in order of familiarity. Like everyone else, he ignored the existence of Nara and Gui.
"What are you doing?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes focused on the body that Akimichi Tifeng was carrying with him.
With the third generation Hokage's perception and observation ability, he could naturally discern that the person behind Yamanaka Hito was just in a coma.
"This ninja's name is Shimura Arata."
Akimichi Tofu threw the body in his hands onto the floor of the Hokage's office.
In the early years, he had been teammates with Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Therefore, the conversation between the two does not need to be too polite.
"Hiruzen, you should know the meaning of this name."
Sarutobi Hiruzen really grasped the key point, his brows furrowed even more tightly, "Shimura..."
The Shimura clan was one of the first ninja clans to join Konoha in the early years.
And the leader of the Shimura clan - without a doubt - Shimura Danzo!
'Why would Tofu bring the body of a Shimura clan ninja to the Hokage's office? '
Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind was filled with thoughts.
'And the comatose ninja behind Hai Ren... What the hell is going on! ? '
'The leaders of the three clans of Pig, Deer and Die were dispatched at the same time. Why couldn't they get any information before? '
"Yes, that guy Danzo is from the Shimura clan."
Qiudao Qifeng nodded, and then turned his attention to the people in the mountains.
The latter stepped forward with understanding and gently put down the mountain forest behind him.
"Third generation sir."
Compared with Qiudao Fengfeng, the attitude of the people in Shanzhonghai seems much more polite.
“This is the Jonin of our Yamanaka clan, Yamanaka Lin.
"As far as I know, Yamanakabayashi joined the ANBU many years ago."
"I know her."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the forest in the mountain, which showed no signs of waking up, and nodded slightly.
"Yamanaka Lin has a very thorough grasp of your family's secret techniques. She can easily see and observe the actions of other ninjas through birds. This is also the reason why she was able to join ANBU in the first place."
As the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen may not be able to know all the information about every ninja in the village.
But as far as the level of "Jounin" is concerned.
Sarutobi Hiruzen knew all the information about every Jonin in the village.
But the special Jonin combination of "Shimura Arata" and "Yamanaka Hayashi"...
Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows did not relax at all, and he turned his attention to Nara Shikano.
But Kano Nara has long since retired.
At this time, he just coughed lightly, and Nara Shikaku took the initiative to take a step forward.
"Third generation sir."
The new leader of the Jonin class is respectful and sharp-tongued.
"Just now, Shimura's new gang, together with Yamanaka Lin, launched an attack on our Nara clan's genin Nara Langui, and the director of the Kikyo Orphanage, Yakushi Nonou.
"Senior Haijin checked the brains of these two ninjas and confirmed that these two jonins from ANBU committed such crimes after receiving orders from their superiors!"
idiot!
This was the only word that came to Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind after listening to Nara Shikaku's report.
Anbu jounin, follow orders and attack fellow villagers?
This is almost making it clear that it was you, the Third Hokage, and Hiruzen Sarutobi who ordered the two jounin to carry out a secret mission to eliminate other ninjas in their village!
And considering the identity of the ninja of the Yamanaka clan of "Yamakarin"...
There may be some evil intentions hidden in this to sow discord between the three clans of pigs, deer, and butterflies!
Everyone present could understand what Nara Shikaku said.
Including the pharmacist Nonoyu who had just been kissed in a daze, it was at this time that he finally realized what the clan leaders and bosses of the Pig, Deer, and Die Tribe were planning to do.
In the final analysis, Yakushi Nonou is a real legendary spy who has a strong talent for obtaining certain intelligence information.
Yakushi Nonou knew very well that the two jonins, Yamanaka Hayashi and Shimura Arata, were sent on a mission by the root leader Shimura Danzo before they took action.
She also knew that Nara Langui must know this.
However, according to Nara Shikaku, who should also know the whole cause of the incident, the person who issued the order for this mission changed from Shimura Danzo to Sarutobi Hiruzen...
Pharmacist Nonoyu lowered his head slightly, focusing his eyes on the floor of the office, trying not to look at the real mastermind next to him.
'Is this the plan Langui mentioned before? '
Yes!
This is Nara's plan to take the crown.
What's the use of throwing evidence directly on Shimura Danzo's bandaged face?
That old man is already notorious.
Even within the Leaf Village, Danzo Shimura did not have a good reputation.
In the ninja world, he is even known as "The Darkness of Ninja", and he is an iconic figure that everyone hates.
Directly bring Shimura Arata and Yamanaka Lin to confront Shimura Danzo, and the other party will be able to fight to the end.
After all, Danzo Shimura is a ninja who lives in the darkness. "Talking nonsense" and "excluding dissidents" are not derogatory terms for him.
But compared to Shimura Danzo.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who lived completely in the light, was completely different.
Since the "Darkness of Shinobi" has absorbed all the darkness in Konoha.
Then the "Third Generation Hokage" can only be pure light!
The kind that can't be stained by any black pot.
Faced with Nara Shikaku's cross-examination, what can Sarutobi Hiruzen say?
Does he know nothing about Shimura Arata and Yamanakabayashi's actions?
or……
Is he the one who sent Arata Shimura and Lin Yamanaka to kill people?
Sarutobi Hiruzen moved his lips a few times, but when the words came to his lips, he still didn't know what to say.
Does he have any room to refute Nara Shikaku?
No.
This is the real crux of the matter.
Even though Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know much about "Shimura Arata", the jounin of the Shimura clan.
But "Yamakabayashi" is a real ANBU jounin!
This alone was enough to shut up Sarutobi Hiruzen.
'Shimura... Inokacho... Nara... Danzo! '
Clues swirled around in Sarutobi Hiruzen's brain. He recalled the conversations in the office a few days ago and directly zeroed in on the "real suspect."
'Shimura Danzo! '
"About this matter, I will definitely give you, the Pig, Deer, and Die clan an explanation."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly, and at the same time he raised his hand to give an order, and an ANBU ninja emerged from the shadows.
"Go to the roots and let Danzo Shimura come up to see me!"
"yes!"
The ANBU ninja responded respectfully and was about to take action immediately.
But at this moment, an old and hoarse voice came from outside the door.
"No need to go."
Shimura Danzo pushed open the door and entered with a calm and cold expression.
"I'm already here."
The movements of the Pig, Deer, and Butterfly Tribes are indeed fast enough.
But just as the other party was approaching the Hokage Building, Shimura Danzo had already received the intelligence information.
After thinking about Hiruzen's character...
Danzo Shimura decided to come up on his own.
"Shimura Arata!"
Shimura Danzo's eyes focused on the dead body on the ground, and the dissatisfaction and anger in his eyes flashed away.
"This is a jounin of our Shimura clan. You Ino Shikacho openly killed your companions in the village. It is really a heinous crime!"
As soon as he appeared on the stage, Shimura Danzo was defeated.
"Elder Shimura."
Nara Shikaku's tone was also very cold.
"Senior Hairen has searched the brain memories of these two ninjas, and we have confirmed that these two jonins took this action after receiving instructions from a certain senior executive.
"Are you questioning the professional ability of the analysis class?"
"I only know that the ninjas of the Shimura clan are dead, but the ninjas of the Yamanaka clan are still alive."
Danzo Shimura sneered and said noncommittally.
"What's more, this is the result of self-examination by the ninjas of their mountain clan.
"If you ask me, it would be better to hand over these two ninjas to me and let my subordinates come and check their brain memories in person.
"When the time comes, I will definitely give you an explanation."
snort!
After hearing Danzo Shimura's words, several people present couldn't help but snorted in their hearts, lamenting how shameless this old man was.
If I hand these two ninjas over to you, wouldn't it be like a meat bun beating a dog, and there will be no return?
Nara Shikaku simply ignored the ruthless, shameless, and unreasonable Danzo Shimura, and looked directly at the Third Hokage.
"Does the Third Generation think so too?"
Inakacho's idea is very simple, just focus the problem on the third generation and bypass Shimura Danzo.
Facing Nara Shikaku's questioning, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe silently.
To be honest, he was originally planning to call Danzo Shimura to take the blame.
Then the two old teammates played a "red and white face" drama to deal with today's matters first.
Unexpectedly, the stage was almost set up, but the other actor didn't follow the routine at all!
Just when Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking about what words to use to reply to the Ino, Deer, and Butterfly clan.
Danzo Shimura, who had planned to just watch indifferently, took the initiative and handed over a step.
"In such a tense moment, causing such a boring farce, I really don't know what you, the Pig, Deer and Butterfly Tribe, are thinking!"
Shimura Danzo once again attracted firepower for his old friend, taunting him while making big news.
"Do you know that Sunagakure Village has already taken the initiative to send troops to find their third Kazekage!"
