DC New Krypton

Inside the Hokage's office.

The Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen wore the robe of the Third Hokage and the Hokage hat. Under the hat was a weathered face that showed his hard work and wrinkles. He sat at the Hokage's desk, smoking a pipe with a calm expression, opening each document and looking at it. He had the calmness and majesty of a supreme leader handling documents.

In the middle of the Hokage's office, Shimura Danzo was thin, wearing a black and gray kimono, with brown hair and neat sideburns. His head and right eye were wrapped in bandages. His other slender left eye had a gloomy and deep gaze, and there was a fork-shaped scar on his chin.

Shimura Danzo's face was slightly gloomy and his wrinkles were deep, always giving people a feeling of being sinister and scheming.

Shimura Danzo, a member of the elite guard force of the Second Hokage when he was young, was a man who competed with the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen for the position of Hokage.

After he thought that he was a second late and failed in his bid to inherit the position of Hokage, Danzo Shimura became the founder and leader of the "Root" in the "Anbu" team directly under the Hokage. He has a team of ninjas that only obey his will and controls the "darkness" of Konoha.

He is extremely suspicious, cautious, insidious, and tough. He does not trust others, and even assassinates his old friend Sarutobi Hiruzen. When dealing with the affairs of many Konoha families, he always takes a tough attitude of suppression and strong suppression, which makes many Konoha families fear him.

"Huruzen..." Danzo Shimura took a sip of tea and slightly planned to say what he had planned to say, intending to persuade Sarutobi Hiruzen with emotion and reason.

No matter how the root develops, Danzo Shimura feels that it is not enough.

"No!" Without waiting for Danzo Shimura to say it, Danzo Shimura's old friend Sarutobi Hiruzen refused.

As an old friend who has been playing since childhood, Sarutobi Hiruzen feels that he knows Danzo Shimura too well.

"The Uchiha clan is ambitious. The various families in Konoha seem to have always been keeping their place, but as long as there is a chance, they will keep trying and reaching out to seize more nutrients from Konoha.

The Hyuga clan is like this." Shimura Danzo snorted coldly.

He was talking about the fact that Hyuga Hiashi handed over Hyuga Hizashi's body to Kumogakure. It was not that Sarutobi Hiruzen had been beating up the Hyuga clan. The Hyuga clan had long wanted to seize more power and benefits.

It's just that the Hyuga clan lost to Hyuga Hizashi on the surface in this game, but in fact, they lost everything, but Shimura Danzo still felt it was not enough.

However, the Hyuga clan was more difficult to deal with than a turtle when they retreated, and Shimura Danzo had no choice but to plunder the combat power of other families and consume other families in order to mainly target the Uchiha clan.

Shimura Danzo felt that he had also made great contributions.

If he hadn't asked the elite talents of these families to contribute and enter the root, these families would definitely want to try more and gain more power and benefits as their own families grew stronger.

Konoha is so small, and there are so many interests to be divided. It is also in a truce period. Everyone is resting and having more offspring. If they are not suppressed, they will grow up very quickly. At that time, the interests in Konoha will not be shared by them, and it will be a difficult political game.

At that time, we can only start a new round of manpower consumption plan-war!

It is okay to start a war, and Shimura Danzo does not mind, but at least we have to wait until the Uchiha clan, the internal trouble of Konoha, is solved, or the Uchiha clan all die on the battlefield, that will work.

But either one is more difficult, but it is relatively easy to draw their elite disciples from other families into the root to deal with the Uchiha clan.

It can achieve the best of both worlds, weakening other families and enhancing their own strength. The most important thing is to use the lives of people from other families to deal with the Uchiha clan, which is really the best of both worlds.

"Hmm..." Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes, puffed out the smoke from his pipe, and thought indecisively.

The Hyuga clan is a large clan. If they are not careful, the main family will think that they have paid a lot and should get more, and they will easily lose control, so they are often beaten by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

This is the case with Hyuga Hiashi. He has been the clan leader for so many years and has always been law-abiding. Then after a war, he thought that the Hyuga clan was an irreplaceable existence in Konoha and thought that he could make the Hyuga clan go further. As a result, he was caught by Sarutobi Hiruzen accidentally, and the leader of the branch family, his younger brother Hyuga Hiashi, was directly killed to make up for his mistake.

Especially the Hyuga clan manages the family by splitting the main family and using caged birds to control the clones. No one can interfere with the strategic weapon of the Byakugan. Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo don't even dare to ask any member of the Hyuga branch family as a confidant.

It has to be said that it is an extremely wasteful thing.

The advantage of the white eye is so great, but it is trapped in a cage.

This way of the Hyuga clan is too "united".

No ruler would be happy with the twisted way of the Hyuga clan, so if there is any sign, the Hyuga clan will be punished to let them see clearly who Konoha belongs to.

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked himself that he was very magnanimous and appropriate in dealing with the Hyuga clan.

But what Shimura Danzo said was unreasonable.

In the period without war, for the peace within Konoha, it is indeed necessary to balance and pay attention to the number of new elite disciples of each family to prevent them from having different ideas, which will lead to the destruction of the peace that Konoha Village has finally achieved.

Since the establishment of Konoha Village, the invisible disputes between civilian ninjas and family ninjas have never been truly eliminated.

Even if the Senju clan took the lead and integrated into the civilian population.

But it is very embarrassing that the Senju clan took the lead in integrating into the civilian population and wanted other ninja families to learn from them. As a result, no ninja family followed them and they all ignored it.

It made Senju Hashirama, who was not very smart, helpless.

Everyone followed him to establish Konoha, why didn't they do the same as him and integrate the family into the civilian population.

The most ideal situation is that Konoha has no families, everyone is civilians, and Konoha is a big family.

But this is just Senju Hashirama's ideal.

Shimura Danzo is too familiar with his old friend who no longer has the same glory as before. He has been the Hokage for too long and has been in this position for too long, becoming a person who will only compromise with the overall situation and sacrifice everything else.

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a pipe of smoke, and the smoke hazily enveloped the wrinkled face of the old man: "Each family is a part of Konoha Village, we can't let them feel disappointed."
