Konoha Tatsuno

Without Shennong's "drag", the next trip of Class 31 was much faster.

Carefully avoiding the route taken by root ninjas along the way, the four members of Class 31 rushed back to Konoha Village in less than five days.

"You all should go home and rest first. I will report to the Hokage immediately about the mission."

Stepping into the gate of the village, the group of people immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Nobu Ichikawa gave instructions to Tatsuno and the others.

Regarding the true situation of the root ninja, Nobu Ichikawa did not disclose it to his students. With their current strength and status, it is better not to know these things for the time being.

"Yes"

The three people who looked a little tired looked at each other when they heard the words, then responded, and then went back to their homes to rest.

After this mission, although Tatsuno and the three of them did not experience high-intensity fighting, it was still very tiring to guard others cautiously along the way.

"The body analysis is completed and it is found that there is some kind of natural unknown seal in the host's body, and the information is being collected."

The moment he turned to leave, a pleasant reminder sounded in Long Ye's mind.

After watching Tatsuno and the others leave, Nobu Ichikawa rushed straight towards the Hokage Building.

Half an hour later, in the Hokage's office, the fourth-generation Hokage Namikaze Minato, the third-generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Konoha elder Mito Kadeni, Koharu Tenzin, Danzo, Nara Shikaku and other top Konoha officials were all at the moment. Gather here.

"Hokage-sama, this is the situation."

Ichikawa Shin bowed and stood in front of Namikaze Minato's desk, and calmly reported the situation of their encounter with the root ninja.

"Elder Danzo, do you have any explanation for this matter?"

After listening to Ichikawa Nobu's report, Namikaze Minato nodded, then turned to look at Danzo and asked.

Namikaze Minato naturally knew about Gen, a force that was almost independent of the village management organization.

However, the time for him to take over as Hokage is still short, and the three generations of Hokage have not yet handed over all the power of Hokage to Namikaze Minato. Considering Danzo's relationship with the three generations, the elders Mito Kadoen and Koharu Kaden, Minato Namikaze Originally, I had no idea of ​​touching the roots for the time being.

But he didn't expect that the ninjas at the root would act so recklessly and dare to directly attack the ninjas of the same village without the order of him, the Hokage.

This was something Namikaze Minato would never tolerate.

"Fourth generation, Shen Nong has great medical skills and is extremely important to the village in Tsunade's absence. I only sent people to take care of Shen Nong out of the interests of the village. They are just following orders. Is that why you are here? What little thing brings us all here?”

Upon hearing Namikaze Minato's question, Danzo's expression remained unchanged, but he asked in a low voice.

“By orders, whose orders are you following?

Elder Danzo, I don’t remember ever giving such an order to Genbe.

The root ninja dared to interfere in the missions of other ninjas in the village without receiving orders from the Hokage's office, and he also blatantly attacked ninjas from the same village. Is this a small matter in your eyes? "

Namikaze Minato glanced at Danzo and raised his tone a little higher.

“The fourth generation, they naturally followed my orders.

I received news that there were signs of Kumogakure's beheading troops in the Land of Fire. I was worried about Shennong's safety, so I sent a team to protect his safety. I took action against Ichikawa Shinchunin and the others only because of the emergency, in order to force them to retreat as soon as possible. It’s just their little trick, it’s nothing! "

Danzo said lightly.

"It's not as simple as forcing him to retreat. If my student Long Ye hadn't taken action in time, my subordinates would have been seriously injured."

Seeing that Danzo brought him over so lightly, Nobu Ichikawa couldn't help but interjected angrily.

"Ichikawa Shinchuunin, this is a high-level meeting of the village, and there is no room for you to interfere at will!

As for what you just said, it is simply ridiculous!

If my subordinates really intend to cause harm, your students are just genin, how can they break their ninjutsu?"

Danzo looked directly at Nobu Ichikawa with his cold eyes and shouted coldly.

"Tatsuno is not an ordinary genin. He is a member of the Akimichi clan. The power of the Akimichi clan's doubling technique is already powerful. It is not unusual to be able to break this technique."

Frightened by Danzo's power, Nobu Ichikawa's face froze slightly, but he still defended himself.

"Can a guy who just graduated from ninja school still be a genius?

The Yondaime, this is clearly the result of Ichikawa Shinchuunin slacking off, not being vigilant at all, and being restrained by a technique that even a genin can break.

If I hadn't decisively ordered them to continue escorting Shennong, and they really encountered Yunyin's beheading team, Shennong would definitely not have been spared! "

Danzo slammed the crutch in his hand and said in a stern tone.

"Elder Danzo, now that the village has signed a peace agreement with Yunyin Village, how can the beheading troops from Yunyin Village enter our country of fire?

Even if there were indeed signs of the activities of the beheading force in Kumogakure Village, Nebe did not notify the Hokage's office immediately after receiving the news, but instead left the village privately to act. Who gave this power? "

Ichikawa Nobu's face turned red from holding back, and he was about to say more, but Namikaze Minato reached out his hand to stop Ichikawa Nobu, and looked at Danzo with stern eyes and continued.

"Minato, the purpose of its existence is to secretly protect the safety of the village. In emergencies, it has the power to directly handle some matters. This was already acquiesced by the village's higher-ups when Hiruzen was in power."

Danzo turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mito Kadenen, and Koharu Koharu and said.

"good!

As the Darkness of Konoha, some things at the root should not be brought to light. Their power is indeed our acquiescence."

Facing Danzo's gaze, Koharu turned to bed and took over the words.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Mito Kadoen were silent and agreed with Koharu's statement.

"Sir, Third Generation, if this is the case, the power of the Roots is too great and is completely beyond the control of the village. I propose that the Roots must be restricted.

Moreover, they dared to do this to the ninjas of the same village, which is too unscrupulous and must be severely punished."

Namikaze Minato's face darkened slightly when he saw this, he turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and suggested.

As soon as the words fell, Danzo's eyes suddenly turned gloomy when he looked at Minato.

For a moment, everyone in the room focused their attention on the third generation Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The Third Sarutobi Hiruzen took off the pipe in his mouth and said calmly:

"Minato is right, Gen's power should be restricted!

Danzo, from now on, without orders from the Hokage, the root ninjas are not allowed to leave the village to perform tasks at will."

"Sun Cut!"

As soon as the words fell, Danzo's angry voice sounded immediately.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not waver at all when he heard this, and his expression remained calm.

The two looked at each other for a moment, before Danzo gave a loud snort and turned to leave.

Seeing that something happened, Mito Kadoyan, Koharu Koharu and others also left quickly.

"Okay, you can leave first. I will give an explanation to Class 31 about this matter."

In the Hokage's office, Minato confessed to Ichikawa Nobu and asked him to leave. He and Sandai were the only two people left in the room.
