Hokage: Start With Tsunade

Chapter 17 Hiruzen's Suspicion

"It seems that Hanzō of the Salamander also knows how to please us Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of cigarette, his expression remained unchanged, but his heart was full of complacency.

As the master of the three Tsunades, Sarutobi Hiruzen is naturally well aware of the strength of his apprentices.

The three of Tsunade should be at the peak of Elite Jōnin's strength. At most, they haven't seen each other for half a year, and they have just broken through to Zhuanying.

The three of them want to be undefeated at the hands of Hanzō of the Salamander?

That must be because of Hanzō of the Salamander, taking Konoha into account and releasing the water.

Otherwise, the three of Tsunade would not have survived under the hands of Hanzō of the Salamander.

No, more than that, Hanzō of the Salamander could have advertised that Sannin had lost to him and had been mercifully spared by him.

It's just that Hanzō of the Salamander didn't have such a choice. Obviously, Hanzō of the Salamander was afraid of Konoha's power and chose to praise the three of Tsunade!

Sarutobi Hiruzen was filled with pride when he thought that even Hanzō of the Salamander, known as the demigod of the ninja world, had to give in.

The fame of Sannin will enhance the reputation of Sarutobi Hiruzen even more.

You know, Sannin are all disciples of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Even the apprentice is so powerful, what about the master?

The higher the prestige of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the more secure and powerful the Hokage will be.

It's just that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't expect that Hanzō of the Salamander would make such a publicity, not purely because of fear of Konoha, but more to save Xin Tian's face.

Bragging for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to read the content behind the battle report.

Seeing Xin Tian's name, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but frown.

Xin Tian?

This name, I'm not familiar with it, it shouldn't be a high-strength crowd, right?

Sarutobi Hiruzen is Hokage, although it is impossible to remember all Konoha's personnel, but Konoha's powerful ninjas are all in Sarutobi Hiruzen's records. It can be said that Sarutobi Hiruzen knows most of all ninjas whose strength exceeds Elite Jōnin.

Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't remember Xin Tian's name, which shows that Xin Tian's strength should not reach Elite Jōnin.

The ninjas who didn't make it to Elite Jōnin were reported on the battle report. Could it be that they did something earth-shattering?

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, continued to look down, and then his expression gradually became serious.

This ninja named Xin Tian actually defeated Hanzō of the Salamander? !

How can this be? !

Hanzō of the Salamander is a rare Kage-level powerhouse, and because of his physical skills and poison, he is extremely powerful, not something ordinary Kage-level powerhouses can defeat!

And Xin Tian is just a Konoha Shinobi who doesn't even have an impression of himself, how is that possible? !

Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart was filled with disbelief.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen had to believe the battle report.

After all, this is a fact recorded on the battlefield.

However, such a powerful ninja, why doesn't Sarutobi Hiruzen know about it?

Could it be that the other party has some purpose and has been hiding his strength?

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes.

"Come on."

"Master Hokage."

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's call, an Anbu came in from outside Hokage's office and knelt respectfully on one knee.

"Find out all the information about Xin Tian, ​​and tell the intelligence to endure, and find more information about the battlefield of the Kingdom of Rain, especially the information about the battle between Xin Tian and Hanzō of the Salamander. I want detailed information !"

Sarutobi Hiruzen ordered.

"Yes, Master Hokage!" Anbu stepped back and left Hokage's office in an instant.

"Xin Tian, ​​what is your identity? Why do you keep hiding your strength?" Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the battle report in his hand, and stroked his temple with his right hand.

 …

"Master Danzo, all Xin Tian's information is here, and this is the information that our root people collected in the Land of Rain!"

In the dark underground, where the root is, Anbu, a root, handed the information in his hand to Shimura Danzō.

The roots of Shimura Danzō are hidden everywhere in Konoha, and the time when Shimura Danzō got the Rain Country Battle Report is almost the same as Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Similarly, Danzo also made the same choice as Sarutobi Hiruzen. The first thing he did was to search for information about Xin Tian, ​​and he also ordered the people in the root to send the Hanzō of the Salamander and Xin Tian to the Battlefield of the Land of Rain. Combat information, pass it on.

After some twists and turns, the information finally reached Shimura Danzō.

Xin Tian, ​​the son of a commoner ninja, is especially powerful as Jōnin.

Xin Tian's parents were killed in a mission when Xin Tian was very young. Xin Tian is a war orphan.

Xin Tian has a taciturn personality, doesn't like to communicate, and has no other friends.

Xin Tian's grandmother is a member of the Senju clan, who was married to Xin Tian's grandfather.

 …

The information is very detailed and comprehensive.

The Xin Tian in the data is a special Jōnin, and there seems to be nothing special about it.

However, when he saw that Xin Tian's grandma was actually a member of the Senju clan, Shimura Danzō's face showed a trace of solemnity and understanding.

"A member of the Senju clan who is outside? Is the talent of the Senju clan inherited from the next generation, and that's why they have such strength?"

"It's just that, in normal times, he is reticent and keeps hiding his strength..."

"Did you find something?"

Shimura Danzō's face was gloomy.

As one of the culprits that led to the decline of the Senju clan, Shimura Danzō, of course, tried to figure out Xin Tian's mind with the greatest malice.

If Xin Tian hadn't received some instructions, then why did Xin Tian hide his strength?

That's right, in Shimura Danzō's view, the former Xin Tian definitely hid his strength.
