Naruto: Six Paths of the Senju Family

The three-day joint chuunin selection assessment ended with Nagato's final victory.

Several daimyo discussed with the leaders of the ninja villages, and finally selected the genin who performed better in this chunin selection and awarded them the chunin promotion qualifications.

Konoha's Uzumaki Kushina was recognized by several daimyo for her outstanding physical skills, and they all believed that Uzumaki Kushina would become the next powerful ninja like Tsunade.

Although Namikaze Minato lost in the battle with Uzumaki Kushina, the flexible tactics he showed in the battle were strongly recommended by Sarutobi Hiruzen, who personally nominated him for promotion to Chunin.

Outstanding ninjas from other villages, such as Rasa from Sunagakure Village, Nagato from Amegakure Village, Natsuhi from Hoshikage Village, and Huoguo from Tsuchigakure Village, were also included in the list of those promoted to chunin.

Although only Huo Guang was promoted in Iwagakure Village, his performance in several games was remarkable.

Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage and Two-Day Scale, was not dissatisfied with this, and finally did not return empty-handed.

Seeing that the list of Chuunin promotions had been finalized, Onoki left Konoha with a group of Tsuchigakure ninjas on the grounds that Huo Guang was seriously injured and needed to return to the village to recuperate.

Ebizo from Sand Hidden Village was also quite satisfied with Rasa's performance on the field. He encouraged and praised him a few times, and then took the ninjas from Sand Hidden Village on their way back to the Kingdom of Wind.

As the two major ninja villages and some other small ninja villages left one after another, Konoha, which had been lively for a while, seemed to become quiet again.

…

When everyone was looking forward to the announcement of the chunin promotion list, Naoki quietly came to the temporary residence of the ninjas in the Land of Rain.

After treating Nagato's injuries from Kushina, he gave Nagato a scroll and told him to open it when he was in danger. He also explained some things to Sansho Hanzo before leaving quietly. .

Later, Sanshouyu Hanzo did not stop in Konoha, and took Nagato, Yahiko and Konan directly to leave Konoha and return to the Land of Rain.

Several people moved forward and were about to cross the border of the Country of Fire.

A ninja dressed as an ANBU of Konoha suddenly appeared in front of everyone in the Land of Rain, blocked the path of Sanho Hanzo and Nagato, and handed Sanho Hanzo a letter.

"Your Majesty Demigod, this is the letter Danzo-sama has given you."

Hanzo waved his hand to the three Nagatos behind him to stop, and looked at the ninja dressed in Konoha ANBU costume in front of him.

"Are you an ANBU of Konoha?"

"What does Danzo want from me?"

A cold glint flashed in Hanzo's eyes, and he thought to himself: "Lord Nezuki is indeed right. Danzo will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to seize Nagato's Rinnegan."

"Hmph! What a greedy and stupid guy."

The Nenin looked at Hanzo the Sanshouyu without squinting.

"I am the ANBU ninja who belongs directly to Danzo-sama, not the Third Hokage!"

"Danzo-sama knows that the demigod has always hoped to turn the Rain Country into an existence like the five major countries, and he highly respects your strength and ambition."

"So I want to take this opportunity to establish a closer cooperative relationship with the Kingdom of Rain through Your Majesty the Demigod!"

Sanshouyu Hanzo showed an interested smile on his face, took the letter handed over by the root ninja, and glanced at it casually, with a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"Since the famous Dark of Konoha wants to cooperate with me, I am really interested."

Hanzo turned around and looked at Nagato and the other three, gestured with his eyes, and said:

"Yahiko, you, Nagato, and Konan will go first. I will go meet this elder of Konoha, and then I will catch up with you."

Yahiko nodded in agreement, took Nagato and Konan, and the three of them left together.

The Gen nin who delivered the message looked at the three people leaving, a smile flashed across his face under the mask, and then he bowed respectfully to Hanzo the Sansho Fish.

"Your Excellency Demigod, please follow me!"

"Sir Danzo has explained that cooperation with the Country of Rain is of great importance, and we need to find a quiet place to discuss it with you in detail!"

Hanzo nodded slightly and followed the Gennin as they deviated from the original route and came to a secret place.

Seeing a middle-aged man with bandaged eyes and a gloomy expression appearing in front of him, Sansho Hanzo slowly stopped.

"But the elder of Konoha, His Excellency Danzo Shimura?"

Danzo looked at Sansho Hanzo, who arrived with his men, with a flash of light in his eyes. A smile appeared on his gloomy face and he nodded to Hanzo.

"Your Excellency Demigod, I have admired you for a long time!"

"I am the leader of Konoha Roots, Shimura Danzo."

Hanzo nodded, raised the letter in his hand to Danzo, and asked straight to the point:

"I don't know about the cooperation mentioned in Danzo-dono's letter."

Danzo looked at the expression on Sanshouyu Hanzo's face and asked an unexpected question:

"Your Excellency Demigod."

"The three young genin who came to Konoha to participate in the chunin selection this time are not your disciples, are they?"

Sansho Hanzo seemed to be stunned by this question and looked at Danzo in confusion.

"What do you mean, Danzo-dono?"

A sarcastic smile flashed in Danzo's eyes, and he said in a low voice:

"I learned from the root information that those three children are orphans adopted by Jiraiya from the Land of Rain, right?"

"Their sense of belonging to the Land of Rain is not even as deep as their feelings for Jiraiya, right?"

Hanzo's face darkened slightly, and he crumpled the letter in his hand.

"Hmph! Lord Danzo, you might as well say it directly if you have something to say, no need to beat around the bush like this!"

Danzo's eyes flashed with pride and he shook his head slightly.

"Your Excellency Demigod, have you ever thought that if that child with special eyes grows up, will the Country of Rain be like it is now, with you being the only demigod in people's hearts?"

"At that time, the Land of Rain may not be your Sanshouyu Hanzo's one-stop shop!"

A coldness flashed in Hanzo's eyes, and he stared at Danzo.

"snort!"

"As a demigod in the ninja world, how can I be afraid that a better ninja will appear in my village?"

"Danzo, you are underestimating my magnanimity!"

"If you call me here and just talk about these meaningless nonsense, then I'll excuse you!"

Sanshouyu Hanzo said disdainfully. As if he didn't want to say anything more, he turned around and left.

Danzo couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard Sansho Hanzo's words.

"Ha ha!"

"Lord Hanzo, you can fool others, but you can't fool me!"

"If I didn't know you well enough, how could I take the risk to come to you?"

Danzo paused as he spoke and looked at the back of Hanzo the Sanshouyu, his eyes full of affirmation.

"You, like me, are the kind of heroes who don't want to be inferior to others!"

"Hanzo, cooperate with me!"

"You lead the Rain Country and help me become the Fourth Hokage. I will lead Konoha and recommend your Rain Ninja Village to become the sixth largest Ninja Village in the Ninja World!"

Sansho Hanzo suddenly stopped and turned around to look at Danzo with surprised eyes, as if he was meeting him for the first time.

"are you serious?"

Danzo felt happy when he saw the emotion on Hanzo's face.

"good!"

"To show my sincerity, I am willing to sign an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with Yu Ninja Village!"

Sanshouyu Hanzo narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What do you want from me?"

Danzo's eyes narrowed and he said decisively:

"Those eyes!"
