The Dreamer of the Naruto World

The two of them are in a state of panic.

As an undercover agent planted by Orochimaru in Konoha, Kabuto Yakushi is now doing well in the Anbu. Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen values ​​him, but Tsunade also appreciates him. If Tsunade hadn't tasted the flavor of Orochimaru in Kabuto Yakushi, he might have become Tsunade's successor!

As a shrewd man who is good at maintaining a balance between various forces, Kabuto Yakushi chose to contact Sarutobi Hiruzen at this time, and naturally he had considered it carefully. Because he knew that Shokuhou Misaki didn't want to become Hokage yet, or Shokuhou Misaki was not ready to become Hokage.

Shokuhou Misaki was too young and her foundation was too shallow. Although the Ino, Shikaku and Chou clans expressed their obedience to her, it does not mean that she can become Hokage now. Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the previous Hokage, is also a difficult problem to deal with. Even if he is now deserted by everyone, Shokuhou Misaki can't really kill him, right?

Since the conditions for the change of Hokage are not yet ripe, it is natural to find a way to help Sarutobi Hiruzen keep his position as Hokage. In this way, not only Sarutobi Hiruzen will be happy, but Shokuhou Misaki will also be happy. Is there a better opportunity for Konoha to please these two people at the same time than now?

Moreover, as the real superior of Kabuto Yakushi, Orochimaru does not want his teacher to leave like a clown.

In short, considering all aspects, Kabuto Yakushi finally decided to stand on the side of Sarutobi Hiruzen. Facing the almost desperate Sarutobi Hiruzen, Kabuto Yakushi, wearing an Anbu ninja mask, said affectionately:

"Hokage-sama, I'm here to help you!"

"Help me?" Hearing Kabuto Yakushi's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen sneered:

"Now everyone in Konoha Village knows that I, the Third Hokage, am no longer good, and Shokuhou Misaki is the next generation of Hokage. As a rising star in the Anbu, you don't want to please your future superiors, so why do you care about an old man like me?"

"Hokage-sama, as a ninja in the Anbu, my mission is to protect the village and offer my loyalty to you!"

As an undercover agent of Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi said this.

"Oh?" Seeing Kabuto Yakushi being so serious, Sarutobi Hiruzen's originally lonely eyes finally bloomed with some spirit.

"In Konoha, are there still ninjas who are loyal to me?"

Even the Ino, Shikaku and Chou clans have fallen to their knees, but you, Kabuto Yakushi, still choose to be loyal to me, the Hokage?

"Hokage-sama, I am loyal to you!"

Is this true?

Looking at Kabuto Yakushi in front of him, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was full of disbelief.

But when Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Kabuto Yakushi, Kabuto Yakushi secretly complained:

In the whole Konoha, only I, Lord Orochimaru's undercover, stand with you...

Hiruzen Sarutobi, you are really...how to describe it? Very unique!

While Kabuto Yakushi secretly complained, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed again:

"Alas, I know you are loyal. But at this time, your loyalty is actually meaningless. While Shokuhou Misaki has not yet become Hokage, you should go find Tsunade! As long as you can become Tsunade's disciple, you and Shokuhou Misaki will have a relationship, and the position of Anbu Minister will definitely be yours in the future. There is no need to delay your future for an old man like me!"

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was still acting like this at this time, Kabuto Yakushi under the mask rolled his eyes speechlessly and thought:

Okay, there are only two of us here? Who are you acting for!

Kabuto Yakushi turned and said:

"Hokage-sama, as a ninja of Konoha, I will never betray you, Hokage-sama!"

Because I am not yours, there is naturally no question of betrayal!

"You know, when I was in the River Country, I made a huge mistake in the Root. If it weren't for the protection of the Hokage, I would be dead now!"

At that time, I was ready to leave Konoha and join Lord Orochimaru, but I didn't expect that you would keep me here in order to check and balance Danzo. Do you really not know that I am Lord Orochimaru's undercover? Or is the internal fighting mentality in your mind, and you don't care about the undercover at all?

"As a ninja, I am only grateful to you!"

Indeed, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to make it in Konoha.

"If I really abandoned you like the others, I wouldn't be here now!"

In fact, I also thought about abandoning you.

But considering that Shokuhou Misaki and Tsunade know my details, they won't accept me even if I want to join them!

In addition, Lord Orochimaru is a ninja who values ​​friendship, so as his subordinate, I naturally cannot make you, the Hokage, look too bad. So I really have no choice but to burn your cold stove.

Otherwise, do you really think I like facing your old and smelly face?

As one of the best spies in the ninja world, Kabuto Yakushi's acting skills are naturally very strong. Although he is always disparaging Sarutobi Hiruzen in his heart, he looks more like a ninja loyal to the Hokage than anyone else. After hearing these words, even Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little moved.

What is meant by "strong grass is known in the strong wind, and loyal ministers are known in the turbulent times"?

After being abandoned by everyone, Sarutobi Hiruzen just realized that he still had a loyal person in the Anbu!

"Kabuto, you are very good!"

Looking at the loyal Kabuto Yakushi in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen's tears were about to flow.

"But now we are really in a desperate situation!"

Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen was still thinking about how to deal with Shokuhou Misaki, but when he saw that the Mizukage Yagura, who was a perfect Jinchūriki, was beaten by Shokuhou Misaki, he knew that everything was over.

Because the foundation of all power is violence, a Hokage without strength is just an empty shell.

In the past, the reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen was invincible was, on the one hand, because most of the ninjas in Konoha took the overall situation into consideration and would not really fight him as the Hokage internally. Even the Uchiha clan who wanted to rebel respected him as the Hokage.

On the other hand, it was naturally Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength. Whether it was Konoha White Fang or the Uchiha clan, the strength of these people was not as good as him, the third generation Hokage. And this strength is the fundamental reason why he has been able to sit firmly on the throne of Hokage.

But now, Shokuhou Misaki is not the Konoha ninjas of the past.

Because of the lessons of Konoha White Fang and others, Shokuhou Misaki is impossible to exile herself in the internal struggle, she will only cut the grass and root it out. But more importantly, it is Shokuhou Misaki's strength. Compared with the elderly Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shokuhou Misaki's strength is undoubtedly stronger.

She has both the determination to fight and the strength to win, and her brain is better than his...

Sarutobi Hiruzen really can't see the possibility of defeating Shokuhou Misaki.

So even though he is very pleased with Kabuto Yakushi's loyalty to him, Sarutobi Hiruzen still can't raise hope in his heart.

But Kabuto Yakushi is already prepared for this.

"Hokage-sama, you still have a way to turn the tables!"

Oh, I still have a chance to turn the tables?

"Hokage, the reason why Shokuhou Misaki is so popular in Konoha is, on the one hand, of course, because of her achievements for Konoha, but more importantly, her strength." Yakushi Kabuto analyzed:

"As a Kage-level strongman who defeated the perfect Jinchūriki, Shokuhou Misaki is undoubtedly the strongest person in Konoha now. It is because of this strength that the Ino, Deer, and Chou clans fell so quickly, and the villagers of Konoha thought that Shokuhou Misaki is the next generation of Hokage. So if you want to suppress Shokuhou Misaki, you must gain a stronger power than Shokuhou Misaki."

Stronger power than Shokuhou Misaki, is it easy for you to say that?

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless.

He is 65 now, how can he improve his strength? For a ninja of this age, practicing hard is a dead end. Even if he wants to make some changes, his body may not be able to withstand it!

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's worry, Kabuto Yakushi continued:

"Indeed, Hokage-sama. If you stay in Konoha Village, you can't get a stronger power than Shokuhou Misaki. At least as far as you are concerned, your strength will never be better than Shokuhou Misaki. But what about outside Konoha Village? There are so many ninja villages in the ninja world, how many ninja villages are willing to see Shokuhou Misaki replace you as the next generation of Hokage?"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally realized Kabuto Yakushi's true purpose.

"Kabuto, do you want me, as the Hokage, to collude with foreign enemies? Do you want me to become a traitor to Konoha?"

"You are the Hokage, you represent the entire Konoha." Kabuto Yakushi emphasized:

"All ninjas in the entire Konoha may become traitors, but as the Hokage, you cannot betray Konoha!"

"Now, the ones who really betrayed the village are Shokuhou Misaki, the Ino-Shika-Chou clan, Tsunade and Kakashi, the Anbu and the Root, and those Konoha villagers who curry favor with the powerful! It is because they do not know what loyalty is and have forgotten the true will of fire that Konoha has fallen into an unprecedented crisis."

"Compared to them, you, as the Hokage, are the real subject of Konoha. As Konoha ninjas, our loyalty to you is the most basic responsibility, and this is the true will of fire. Anyone who dares to disobey you is a traitor to Konoha! So even if you cooperate with other ninja villages to a certain extent, it is

For the sake of the overall situation, how can it be said that it is a betrayal of Konoha? "

Yakushi Kabuto's deception directly made Sarutobi Hiruzen the sun of Konoha. If it were in the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely sneer at this statement. But now that he is deserted by everyone, Sarutobi Hiruzen just likes this tune.

Yes, I am the Hokage, and I represent Konoha?

How could I betray the village? It was obviously the majority of people led by Shokuhou Misaki who betrayed me!

They are the traitors, I am the Hokage!

Sarutobi Hiruzen hypnotized himself like this, not realizing that the so-called Konoha traitors in his mind were already the majority of the entire village!

"So, Lord Hokage, we should contact those ninja villages that were calculated by Shokuhou Misaki, and work with them to deal with Shokuhou Misaki. After all, in the Snow Country alone, Shokuhou Misaki offended the three major ninja villages of Iwagakure, Sand Country, and Kumogakure. Later, in the Wave Country, Shokuhou Misaki killed the Fourth Mizukage. It can be said that the four major ninja villages now hate Shokuhou Misaki to the core! "

Hearing Kabuto Yakushi's calculations, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, and then said in confusion:

"You have some truth, but the relationship between the four major ninja villages and our Konoha is very sensitive! Even if we want to unite with them, they may not cooperate. Moreover, even if they cooperate secretly, the ninjas of the five major ninja villages cannot gather together to deal with Shokuhou Misaki! After all, there are many contradictions between the five major ninja villages!"

Kabuto Yakushi had expected this, and he continued:

"Now the four major ninja villages have weakened because of Shokuhou Misaki. As for our Konoha, it has been restricted within the Land of Fire because of the Akatsuki Village. Since everyone is not strong enough, why can't Lord Hokage invite the ninjas of the four major ninja villages to conclude a peace treaty in the name of peace?"

"Presumably, the top leaders of the other four major ninja villages will not want to start a war in the next few years, right? In this case, isn't it normal for everyone to sign a peace treaty and establish a certain degree of mutual trust? "

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, and Yakushi Kabuto continued:

"Furthermore, since the peace treaty has been signed, it is reasonable for the five major ninja villages to jointly hold the Chunin Exam! When the Kages of the five major ninja villages gather together for the Chunin Exam, can't you, Lord Hokage, unite with the Kages of other ninja villages to attack Shokuhou Misaki together? No matter how strong Shokuhou Misaki is, it is impossible for her to defeat the combined forces of the five Kages, right? "

Well, it's great, it's great!

First, he signed a peace treaty with the five major ninja villages to gain some reputation. Then he killed Shokuhou Misaki in the Chunin Exam and got rid of the biggest threat. With the external threat gone and the internal threat dead, he could be the Hokage for another ten years. Wouldn't it be wonderful!

If it were any other time, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely be able to appreciate how dangerous Kabuto Yakushi's plan was. What about uniting the five major ninja villages and holding the Chunin Exam for the five major ninja villages? It's just dancing on the edge of a knife! As long as there is a slight mistake in the process of planning, The slightest mistake would mean the end of everything and a complete failure.

But at this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no other choice, because even the three tribes of Ino, Deer and Chou had fallen to their knees. Faced with despair, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only choose the most extreme plan, hoping to go all in and turn the tables directly.

Of course, to be honest, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not in a desperate situation at all.

Because Shokuhou Misaki has no intention of becoming Hokage now, her plan from the beginning is to maintain Sarutobi Hiruzen's name and secretly build up power for herself. Even now because of the wave Because of the country, she instantly became the top star of Konoha, but this did not change Shokuhou Misaki's original strategic plan.

If Sarutobi Hiruzen did not have such a strong desire for power, he could rest assured in his old age as the Hokage. When he was nearly 70 years old, that is, when Shokuhou Misaki was 18 years old, he calmly gave up his throne of Hokage and let Shokuhou Misaki become the fifth Hokage. In this way, everyone would be satisfied, and he, Sarutobi Hiruzen, would also have a good reputation in Konoha Village.

But the problem is, Sarutobi Hiruzen might be so calm about losing his position. To give up power?

Of course not!

Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that Shokuhou Misaki would not become Hokage immediately, he would not allow himself to lose his rights as Hokage. He would not allow himself to become a puppet of Shokuhou Misaki, a Hokage seal in name only. So even though he knew that Kabuto Yakushi's plan was dancing on the edge of a knife, he still chose to accept it completely.

However, as a Hokage who has been a Hokage for decades, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen was almost driven to lose his mind by pressure, his inner vigilance still kept warning him. So after making a decision, Sarutobi

Hiruzen added:

"The four major ninja villages are all guys with ulterior motives. Even if they can join forces with me to kill Shokuhou Misaki, who can guarantee that they will not turn against us after killing Shokuhou Misaki? What should we do if they choose to continue attacking Konoha after killing Shokuhou Misaki?"

"It's very simple, Lord Hokage." Kabuto Yakushi said confidently.

As an ace spy, Kabuto Yakushi had already deduced today's conversation countless times. No matter what questions Sarutobi Hiruzen asked, he had the means to answer them. And even if Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't ask some things himself, Kabuto Yakushi would tell them in advance. After all, Orochimaru, the boss behind Kabuto Yakushi, hoped that his teacher would die as a hero!

Then I heard Kabuto Yakushi say:

"Since you are worried that the other four ninja villages will attack Konoha during the Chunin Exam, then we just need to place the Chunin Exam outside Konoha Village! I think the other four ninja villages will not want to hold the Chunin Exam in Konoha Village, and they will also be worried that Konoha will set traps in their own villages!"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, and then said:

"According to you, where is the most suitable place for the Chunin Exam of the five major ninja villages to be held?"

"Akatsuki Village is very suitable!"

Kabuto Yakushi said:

"As the second ninja village in the Land of Fire, it is a neutral party with no grudges or hatred with the five major ninja villages. It is reasonable for Konoha to hold the Chunin Exam in Akatsuki Village! And even if the other four ninja villages attack Akatsuki Village, it is not Konoha's interests that are harmed. Even Hokage, you can use the power of the four major ninja villages to weaken the strength of Akatsuki Village!"

Is there such an operation?

Good! First, we will unite the other four ninja villages in Akatsuki Village to kill Shokuhou Misaki, and then let the four ninja villages and Akatsuki Village fight each other. In this way, we in Konoha can reap the benefits, and as the third generation Hokage, I can also make unprecedented great contributions to the village!

"Hahaha, very good!"

Looking at the opposite side of the Yakushi Kabuto, Sarutobi Hiruzen said with satisfaction:

"Kabuto, you are indeed the best ninja in the Anbu!"

Faced with Sarutobi Hiruzen's praise, Yakushi Kabuto naturally accepted it calmly.

Having made such a good plan, Sarutobi Hiruzen met with Shokuhou Misaki and others who returned from the Land of Waves with a confident smile.

Seeing that the third generation Hokage still looked confident even though he had been deserted by everyone, Shokuhou Misaki and others were all confused. Especially the three tribes of Pig, Deer and Chou, they just chose to slide to Shokuhou Misaki, and thought Sarutobi Hiruzen should be full of despair at this moment. Now seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen actually smiled at them, they suddenly felt uneasy.

What's going on?

Is Sarutobi Hiruzen suffering from Alzheimer's disease?

How can he still smile when he is almost a puppet?

Could it be that as a Hokage, he still has some backup plan?

In this strange atmosphere, Shokuhou Misaki was promoted from a special jonin to a jonin by Sarutobi Hiruzen. Then Sarutobi Hiruzen praised Shokuhou Misaki as a Hokage, and did not show any dissatisfaction with the three tribes of Ino, Deer and Chou who betrayed him. Everything seemed so normal, which made everyone confused.

After everyone left the Hokage building, all kinds of strange rumors immediately spread in Konoha Village.

Some people said that Sarutobi Hiruzen mastered the power of the Nine-Tails and was ready to use the Tailed Beast Ball to evaporate all the traitors!

Others said that Sarutobi Hiruzen conducted a horrible human experiment and obtained the Wood Release of the first generation Hokage!

Some people also said that Sarutobi Hiruzen was colluding with Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi, and the Hokage was about to betray Konoha and become a traitor!

…

In short, Sarutobi Hiruzen's strange reaction immediately caused countless speculations in Konoha Village.

In comparison, even Shokuhou Misaki's great feat of killing the Fourth Mizukage in the Land of Waves became commonplace.

As for these rumors, Shokuhou Misaki could still laugh it off, but the three tribes of Ino, Shikaku and Chocho, led by Nara Shikaku, were more and more unsure. After all, they were traitors, and they were the ones who were most worried about Sarutobi Hiruzen's resurgence in the entire Konoha Village. If Sarutobi Hiruzen really mastered some mysterious power, their three tribes would definitely be exterminated!

So with a nervous mood, the three of them went to the Konoha Development Department together the next day.

They hoped that their new boss Shokuhou Misaki could show a little and appease the uneasy hearts of their three tribes.

What the three of them didn't expect was that as soon as they arrived at the Development Department, they saw an Anbu ninja reporting an important matter to Tsunade, the Anbu chief. As Tsunade's disciple, Shokuhou Misaki was also there.

Serving on the side. Seeing the arrival of the three people, Shokuhou Misaki did not drive them away, but asked them to stay and listen to this important report.

Then, the Anbu ninja named Kabuto Yakushi said:

"Tsunade-sama, Hokage-sama is going to unite the other four major ninja villages and betray Konoha!"

What, the Hokage is going to betray Konoha?

Hearing this, the patriarchs of the three tribes of Ino, Shikaku and Chou felt as if they were listening to some mythological story.

Can the Hokage actually become a traitor to Konoha?

Then, Kabuto Yakushi told all his plans yesterday. However, unlike yesterday, this plan was no longer a suggestion made by Kabuto Yakushi, but a soliloquy of Sarutobi Hiruzen when he was on the verge of despair.

What about uniting the five major ninja villages to hold the Chunin Exam, the location of the Chunin Exam is in Akatsuki Village, killing Shokuhou Misaki first in the Chunin Exam, and then killing Akatsuki Village, and so on.

After listening to Kabuto Yakushi's story, the leaders of the three tribes, Ino, Shikaku and Chou, looked at each other in bewilderment. Nara Shikaku said directly:

"Hokage-sama, are you crazy?"

"It seems that the truth of the matter is very clear." Tsunade sighed:

"Sarutobi-sensei really has Alzheimer's disease."

Akimichi Choza, who was standing by, was a brainless person. Hearing Tsunade's sigh, he asked:

"Tsunade-sama, what is Alzheimer's disease?"

"It's senile dementia!"
