Shinnosuke...is dead?

After hearing the news, Sarutobi Hiruzen's shoulders were shaking.

This once world-famous Ninja hero has not felt sad about something for a long time.

"Do you know who did it?" Sarutobi Hiruzen tried his best to calm himself, but the anger in his heart could not be stopped.

"It's said to be a bounty ninja." The ANBU who came to inform lowered his head, not daring to raise his head to look at the Sandaime Hokage.

"Bounty Ninja... Kakuto?" Hiruzen Sarutobi, who knew a lot about gold exchanges, immediately thought of this bounty ninja who was not weaker than Kage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that as a former ANBU captain, Shinnosuke had a very high bounty on the black market.

But I didn't expect that someone would actually dare to attack Shinnosuke in the Land of Fire.

You must know that even a demigod and a half-zodiac are afraid of Konoha's anger and dare not kill the three ninjas of Konoha!

Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the bedroom, quickly changed into his combat clothes, and rushed to the Hokage Building.

He has been calm until now, knowing that with his current status, if he wants to leave the village, he needs the approval of the current Hokage.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the office, he found that Minato and Basu's ninjas were already here.

"Thirdai-sama, please forgive me." Namikaze Minato said.

"Well, the most important thing now is to recapture Shinnosuke's body." What Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to do most was to cut Kakuzu into pieces, but he knew that Shinnosuke, who was once the former ANBU captain, had a lot of things hidden in his head.

If the secret is leaked, then there will be no secrets in Konoha.

"I will send another person to look for the corpse, but Kakuzu dares to cause trouble in the Land of Fire, and he must pay the price." Echizen Homura hammered the table in front of him and said in a deep voice, "Sandaime, Minato, you guys

Just join the Bashu ninjas in chasing Kakuzu. The dignity of Konoha cannot be offended."

As Hokage, Echizen Homura is also very worried about the bounty on his own ninja.

After calling several groups of people in succession to trace the whereabouts of Shinnosuke's body, the Hokage's office once again experienced calm.

But the good times didn't last long, and the ANBU from outside came in to deliver the news.

"Hokage-sama, there are rumors in the village that Uchiha Itachi killed his teammates in order to activate the Sharingan!"

Hearing this, Echizen Homura was startled and suddenly realized, "No wonder Danzo didn't take action against other Uchiha who left the village. It turned out that he wanted to do something here!"

Uchiha's Sharingan can be advanced by relying on the death of his partner.

This is no secret among Konoha's top brass.

As the clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku did not want his clan members to kill each other for greater strength, so he did not announce this matter.

However, Danzo now took advantage of the fact that Sarutobi Shinnosuke's team was wiped out and only Uchiha Itachi survived, and told the whole village a secret that only the top brass knew.

"You're still old and hot. I didn't expect Danzo to be so ruthless."

Echizen Homura felt troubled and shook his head, and ordered the ANBU, "Go and stop the rumors."

Although this is tantamount to fixing the problem before it is too late, it still needs to be done in a certain way.

Danzo must have been fully prepared. I am afraid that the entire Konoha Village knows about this now. Even if Echizen Homura wants to stop it, it will be too late.

Even if it can be proven afterwards that Uchiha Itachi did not do it, it will increase the gap between the village and Uchiha.

Fear will become the nourishment for them to become stronger, and no one will be willing to approach Uchiha.

After Echizen Homura takes office, the relationship between Uchiha and the village, which has gradually improved, will become even worse than before.

"Is Danzo confident that he won't be caught, or does he think that even if he dies, he will drag Uchiha along with him?" Echizen Homura has no intention of taking action against Danzo, and he doesn't even have the intention of investigating.

This crazy dog ​​should be dealt with by its owner, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Hokage-sama!"

The office door was knocked open, and a man and a woman barged in one after another.

Echizen Homura took a closer look and saw that it was Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai.

"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, Asuma is just too anxious." Kurenai Yuhi bowed to Echizen Homura from behind.

"Hokage-sama, has my elder brother really been killed?!" Asuma Sarutobi asked loudly and impatiently.

Echizen Homura didn't answer, just nodded silently.

"Damn it..." Sarutobi Asuma gritted his teeth, his clenched fists trembling.

Asuma raised his head and said loudly, "Hokage-sama, please allow me to leave the village to chase the ninja who killed my brother!"

"Your father, Namikaze Minato Jonin and Kakashi's team have all passed away, and there is no place for you." Seeing Asuma's extremely angry look, Echizen Homura sighed slightly in his heart and said in a good voice,

"With your current strength, going will only cause trouble. Just stay in the village and appease your mother."

"If you don't agree, I'll go by myself!" Asuma Sarutobi turned around and left angrily.

"Calm down, Asuma! You must obey Hokage-sama's orders!" Kurenai said anxiously from behind.

"I don't care! I must avenge my elder brother!" Sarutobi Asuma's eyes were already red from crying, and he walked out the door angrily.

"Hey... Shiraishi, knock him out." Echizen Homura shouted towards the members of the Shadow Guard who were hiding using invisibility.

Asuma Sarutobi, who was about to walk out of the door, felt a pain in the back of his neck, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

When he was about to fall to the ground, Yuhi Kurenai helped him.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama, and please forgive Asuma for being rude." The little girl put Asuma's arm to one side, lifted Asuma up, and thanked Echizen Homura.

"Asuma is young and frivolous, and he just lost his father, so it's normal for him to be like this." Echizen Homura waved his hand, indicating that he didn't take it to heart.

If Echizen Homura loses a relative, he will definitely act even crazier than Asuma.

To be honest, Asma knew how to ask him for a certificate to leave the village, which already meant that he was somewhat sensible.

"First send Asuma to the Sarutobi clan and ask their ninjas to keep an eye on him. You know Asuma's head is worth thirty-five million," Echizen Homura said.

Echizen Homura didn't actually know what the black market reward price for Asuma was at this time, but it would definitely not exceed 35 million.

Hearing that Asuma's head was so valuable, Yuhi Hong was frightened.

Brother Shinnosuke was killed by the Bounty Ninja. If such a strong person was killed, Asuma would definitely be even more miserable.

Yuhi Kurenai quickly took Asuma to the Sarutobi clan and asked the ninjas there to take care of Asma.

After the latter woke up, he yelled and wanted to leave the village, but was restrained by the family's ninjas.
