Chapter 47 Buried Roots
"Huruzen, what have you been doing? I thought you were dead." Danzo waited in the small room for a long time.
Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen finally came out, and smelling the smell of alcohol from him, he frowned and said unhappily: "Hiruzen, after becoming Hokage, you have been lazy and addicted to alcohol. It's really outrageous."
Alcohol will paralyze the nerves of ninjas. As a qualified ninja, you should never forget to fight at any time. If a battle suddenly breaks out, these alcohols will cost the lives of ninjas.
Facing the accusations of his subordinates and friends, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't take it to heart and smiled: "Don't worry, this is the daimyo's mansion, it's safe here, and don't you have the same?"
Danzo snorted: "What are you talking about in there? Why did it take so long?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said without blushing or beating his heart: "Nothing, just discussing the specific amount of the budget for the appropriation."
"How much are they going to pay?"
Danzo had estimated the amount and frowned in dissatisfaction. The second Hokage died, and the budget was cut so much
.Before Danzo could get angry, Sarutobi Hiruzen told him a jaw-dropping number
"How did you convince them of such a large budget?"
'I sacrificed my chastity.'
Sarutobi Hiruzen explained: "The Fire Country has a unique environment and fertile land, but it is surrounded by enemies. There are many people who covet this land. After the death of the second , the strength of our village has been greatly reduced. The daimyo is afraid that the war will affect himself, so he naturally has to increase investment in our village to ensure their safety."
Being a Hokage is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships.
Sarutobi Hiruzen does not have such great power like the first generation to ignore these.
If he wants to be a good Hokage, he must use some shameful means.
In fact, most people are the same as trees. The more they yearn for the sunlight above, the more their roots will extend into the dark underground.
When the second Hokage established the Anbu, it was based on this theory, but Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that this was not enough.
The Anbu is still too superficial. After all, normal people can tell that what the Anbu does is the intention of the Hokage with a little association.
This is not okay. The Hokage must be great and glorious, without a trace of stain.
For this, he also needs a force, a force that is buried deeper than the Anbu.
If something goes wrong, you can put the blame on this person without hesitation, saying that I don't know, all this was decided by this person without authorization.
There is a special term for this kind of person in politics - black gloves.
Thinking of this, he looked at his good friend Danzo meaningfully.
Seeing his friend's meaningful look, Danzo didn't understand: "Why are you looking at me?"
"Nothing, I just feel it's great to have you by my side."
Danzo's head was full of black lines: "I'm not interested in men."
Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed after hearing this.
Don't blame me, Danzo.
I'm doing this for the village...
...
Konoha Village, Medical Department.
Ever since the unfortunate death of the Second Hokage, Haru hasn't seen Tsunade appear in the medical team for some time, and she must be in a bad mood.
Seeing that Haru had been training for several hours without a break, Biwako asked him to rest for a while: "Okay, take a break first."
Haru wiped the sweat off his face, stopped the treatment operation, and sighed: "I never thought that the Mystical Palm Technique, which looks quite simple, would be so difficult."
Biwako smiled and said: "Of course. Besides, this ninjutsu is also an A-level ninjutsu. But you are very amazing. You have mastered the trick so quickly. I guess you can officially learn the Palm Fairy Technique in the near future."
While chatting, Haru asked a more concerned question: "Biwako Sensei, now that Konoha and the Hidden Cloud Village are allied, do we have to fight anymore?"
Biwako thought for a while and replied: "No."
Haru raised his hands high and danced with joy: "Great."
Seeing how naive he was, Biwako shook his head. He couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm. Even if they didn't fight for the time being, they would still have to fight in the future.
After finishing a day of medical ninjutsu courses, Haru immediately set off for the Uchiha clan. He was so excited to hear that he would be taught ninjutsu today.
Developing ninjutsu is too time-consuming, how can it be more efficient to just use the current ones.
When the little boy Akira saw Haru coming, he ran over happily, intending to spar with Haru.
Haru looked at him with disdain: "You are practicing all day long, don't you need to study?"
Haru asked puzzledly: "Study, what books to study?"
Haru: ???
Akira seems to be trained according to the standards of the clan leader, this kid really doesn't need to study.
Akira couldn't wait to say: "Okay, don't talk about these nonsense, let's spar, I just learned a ninjutsu recently."
Defeating Haru is now his biggest dream.
Haru scratched his head, "If I really lost to you. Then, you must not come to me for at least a month."
Akira was so competitive that he came to trouble him every other day. He was not annoyed, but Haru was annoyed.
Akira readily agreed.
The two of them kept a distance and made a seal of opposition according to the process. Akira took the lead and prepared to perform ninjutsu.
He performed 8-9 hand signs, which looked very intimidating. Haru didn't know what kind of ninjutsu it was. Anyway, he interrupted Akira and kicked him away.
Akira got up with a dusty face and cursed.
Haru teased, "Your broken ninjutsu has so many steps. By the time you use it, everyone will run away. Which idiot taught you?"
At this time, Uchiha Yoshito suddenly said, "I taught you."
High-level ninjutsu are often very complicated. After becoming proficient, the steps of these ninjutsu seals can be greatly reduced to only a few seals.
Akira had just started learning, so he naturally had to learn step by step. In addition, he was not very fast at forming hand seals, so he had many flaws long ago, and was knocked down by Haru with one kick.
Haru smiled awkwardly, which was very embarrassing.
But it didn't matter. His biggest advantage was his thick skin: "Senior Yoshito, can you also teach me ninjutsu? I still only know one fire style ninjustu, the Great Fireball Jutsu."
Uchiha Yoshito snorted coldly: "Today, the person who teaches you ninjutsu is not me."
Haru was confused: "If it's not you, then who would it be?"
"It's me."
An old voice sounded, and Haru looked over. It was a white-haired old man - Elder Yasuhi.
