Konoha's traitor master

Chapter 62

The top floor of the Konoha Hokage Building.

"See you, my lords." Of course, the first thing Aoba did after returning to the village was to report on his work.

"Welcome our youngest commander in Konoha to return with a great victory!" The third generation in the office took the lead in helping Aoba, and the other three senior officials also clapped with smiles. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

Because it was an important report from the victorious commander, all four senior officials were present.

But this time it was not a formal triumphal return. Konoha planned to hold a grand ceremony when the situation was completely calmed down.

The harmonious atmosphere is just an illusion. The conflict between the third generation and Danzo has broken out, and Aoba knows this very well.

From the fact that the four desks in this office have returned to one, it can be seen that the close cooperation between the four people is no longer the same as during wartime.

Moreover, the matter of Danzo flipping the table has long been a hot topic.

"Let's report on the situation on each battlefield first." The third generation said that although Konoha's current information transmission is very convenient, written reports and language reports are different.

"...The above is the complete situation of the three battlefields of earth, thunder and water." After nearly two hours, Aoba introduced the details of the three battlefields.

At present, the armies of the three countries have withdrawn from the territory of the Fire Country, and depending on the situation, they do not have the ability to invade again, but Jiraiya and Minato still stay on the battlefield to finish the battle and prevent the other party from sudden attacks.

The reason why Aoba can run around is because the Kannabi Bridge was blown up and the Earth Kingdom lost its supply line to attack Konoha.

Onoki didn't have a chance even if he wanted to make a decisive move.

In fact, the high-level officials of Konoha have already grasped the specific situation. They just raised some questions on some details. Aoba can naturally answer them easily after having an overview of the whole situation.

After the report was completed, the two elders Mito Kadoyan and Koharu Koharu looked at each other. From the entire battle report, they noticed two words that ran through all stages of the war.

intelligence.

Konoha's victory was based on intelligence.

The two of them glanced at Danzo covertly. It seemed that this old guy was not bragging to them. The 'koala' from the Root Intelligence Class was indeed a genius in intelligence.

Of course, the Third Generation and Danzo have a deeper understanding of this matter. They all know that the biggest contributor to this ninja war is this young man who is less than 20 years old.

It's just that Danzo didn't know that the Third Generation already knew all the details about Aoba at the Root, and that Aoba was even one of the chess pieces that the Third Generation planted in the Root.

The third generation sitting at the top looked at the interaction between the eyes of the three old teammates below, and showed that cheerful smile again.

At the end of the meeting, Aoba took the initiative to apply to go to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Wind.

Although the overall situation has been decided, it is certainly a good thing for Aoba to go to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Wind. Expansion will be expansion, but it is also good to have a steady hand.

The final departure time was the next morning, and Qingye knew that tonight would be another sleepless night.

As night fell, Aoba had a problem before going out. Both Sandai and Danzo gave hints during the meeting, so where to go first is something that needs to be carefully considered.

Especially when he thought that the Third Generation and Danzo were both bad old men, Aoba's mood became even less beautiful.

...

In the root's underground base, Aoye finally chose to find Danzo first, to find out what Danzo wanted to do, and then to find the third generation. At worst, he would directly sell Danzo's dialogue to the third generation, using the name of gathering information to explain why he went to the root first.

.

"I've met Danzo-sama." Aoba was still very respectful and maintained his persona in front of Danzo.

Aoba came to the root base very openly, although he knew that Danzo had mastered some powerful sealing techniques and there were many arrangements in the root base.

But he is even more aware of how valuable he is to Danzo now.

Sure enough, after Aoba showed his usual respect, Danzo also showed a very enthusiastic gesture. Danzo went directly to the audience and helped Aoba up.

"Aoye, you've done very well recently, and you really didn't disappoint me." Danzo patted Aoba's shoulder and looked directly into Aoba's eyes, looking deeply absorbed in the drama.

"My subordinates are only following Danzo-sama's will. Anyone who invades the Land of Fire should die." Of course Aoba knew what Danzo meant and cooperated at the right time.

Danzo's praise was somewhat sincere, and Aoba could appreciate this.

Because Aoba's actions in Earth Country were actually very in line with Danzo's appetite.

After receiving the information that the Third Raikage had landed in Earth Country and was ambushed, the opinions of Konoha's top brass were divided into two groups.

The third generation believes that although the original plan was for Minato to destroy Tuanyan Hidden Village, Aoba did a very good job in the early stage, exceeding expectations, successfully delaying the time, and his own battle losses were only 500.

According to analysis, the Earth Kingdom has no intention of going deep into Konoha. Since the Earth Kingdom has been forced back to Kannabi Bridge, it is better to let the army of the dead people leave.

Aoba insisted on annihilating this force, and the reason Aoba finally convinced the third generation was that he made a guarantee of zero casualties.

The third generation's will of fire only targets the inside of the village. Of course, the third generation will not sit on his butt. He can destroy the invading enemies without losing his companions. Of course, the third generation is happy.

But Aoba's behavior is undoubtedly very appreciated by Danzo. In Danzo's view, if the elite troops in Iwagakure Village can be eliminated, it will be worthwhile even if Konoha's 2,000 reserve army is emptied.

As for Aoba's zero-casualty plan, Danzo is very familiar with this and does it often.

As long as the third generation is first persuaded to agree to the implementation of the plan, and in the end, as long as the goal is achieved, there will be some deviations in the process, and the third generation will be punished with three drinks at most.

"In my opinion, you are the only one in Konoha, Aoba, who can understand my ambition." At this time, Danzo was like a wife-controller who makes wine with green plums.

"Sir, now is not the time." Aoba did not follow Danzo's words at this time, but emphasized that now is not the time to unify the ninja world.

"Is there really no chance?" Danzo said with a frown. Danzo did not reject Aoba's opinion against him, which was in line with the character of Aoba's confidant.

What Danzo cares about is that Aoba can seriously consider the possibility of unifying the ninja world in Konoha. Like the Third Generation and others, the option of unifying the ninja world has never been within the scope of consideration.

"The biggest problem is the tailed beasts. Konoha does not have a good means of dealing with fully tailed beasts." Aoba emphasized the danger of tailed beasts. In fact, this is an issue that every village that intends to unify the ninja world needs to consider.

One of the important reasons why the Kingdom of Thunder is confident in unifying the ninja world is that the Third Raikage has the power to overpower the tailed beasts.

"Tailed beast." Danzo touched his chin. The tailed beast was really difficult to deal with, but he was not afraid of not being able to defeat it.

But the scene of the complete tailed beast going crazy in the village was something no one wanted to see. Of course, Danzo's core consideration was not how big the loss was, but whether it was worth it.

"I remember that your information spoke highly of the jinchuriki training in Hidden Cloud Village?" Danzo asked instead.

"Based on the battle between Rabbi Kiri, the eight-tailed jinchuriki of Cloud Hidden Village, and Minato, he has mastered the method of transforming into a complete tailed beast while maintaining his sanity. This is why I urge you to give up the war with Hidden Raid Village.

"Qingye explained by the way the reason why he objected to the proposal of forcibly retaining the Raiyin Village troops.

"I have long said that Jinchuuriki should be trained as weapons." Danzo changed the subject by expressing dissatisfaction with the third generation, which seemed to accept Aoba's explanation.

As the night got darker, Danzo briefly chatted with Aoba about the progress of the Roots' long-term mission, and then Aoba left the Roots base.
