Many ninjas appeared here one after another, reporting one thing after another.

While approving the information, Hiruzen Sarutobi also had to deal with the reports from the coming ninjas in a timely manner.

Shimura Danzo leaned on his cane and sat quietly aside without saying a word, just waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen's busyness to come to an end for the time being.

"Hoho, Danzo, are you finally free?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was referring to the previous meeting of the jounin class and the fact that Danzo did not come.

To Hiruzen Sarutobi, he is the light of the village, while Danzo Shimura is the darkness of the village.

The second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama is a ninja who possesses both light and darkness at the same time.

His bright side was inherited by Sarutobi Hiruzen and carried forward.

The dark side was inherited by Shimura Danzo and... infinitely magnified.

"Hiruzhan, the old man is here to discuss with you the affairs of the young and talented ninjas on the front line..."

Danzo Shimura spoke slowly, with no expression visible on his face covered by bandages.

"oh?"

It is not surprising that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not greet Shimura Danzo, but went directly to the topic.

Shimura Danzo... is such a serious person.

After raising his head slightly, he said: "Namikaze Minato, Nomatsu, and Hinata Hikari."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, and his smiling face slowly closed.

The little thought contained in it was directly seen through by Shimura Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's current performance, in Shimura Danzo's opinion, is like an old hen protecting its calf.

It couldn't be more obvious.

"Um... Danzo, what happened to the three of them?"

After a moment's hesitation, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke tentatively.

Shimura Danzo put his hand into his arms, then took out a scroll and threw it to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen caught it and unfolded it.

This is an information scroll.

After reading it quickly, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but nod.

Above is the information about Hikaru and the three of them on the battlefield.

But when he saw Hikaru Hinata's right arm injured and Asuma killed in battle, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned.

When he saw Uchiha Takano appear, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Generally speaking, such personal information is not particularly important, and Sarutobi Hiruzen will not send special personnel to investigate.

Many times, they are mixed in various comprehensive reports.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not know it as clearly as Danzo, or rather...so quickly.

After that, Shimura Danzo first casually praised Namikaze Minato with a few polite words.

He continued to praise Ye Song.

Finally...Hikaru Hinata.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen confused about Danzo's intentions.

Hinata Hikaru was separated to perform tasks, and he knew it.

This is normal, because after becoming a chuunin, things will be different than when you were a genin.

Each chuunin can serve as a squad leader to lead the genin.

"Although Hikari Hinata's mission failed...but fortunately he came back alive..."

Shimura Danzo prolonged his emphasis and deliberately emphasized the words "mission failed."

The four Hikaru Hinata were sent to destroy the enemy's supply line, but they failed to complete it.

Because there is no seal scroll representing the material.

Although Uchiha Takano killed a special jounin...

Yamashiro Momiji, Asashibashi and a chuunin each.

But this is of no use.

Danzo Shimura curled his lips.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.

Could it be that... Danzo wanted to use the topic to his advantage?

Punish Hinata Hikari for not completing her mission?

"Hikari Hinata is still young... I think she should be given a chance to make up for her mistakes. Hiruzen, what do you think?"

Danzo Shimura was not stupid enough to say directly that Laochan had already asked Hikari to join the Roots.

Because he knew that if he said that, Sarutobi Hiruzen would 100% disagree.

At that time, it will be another set...

She is just a child, and we should be more responsible for her mental illness...etc.

Shimura Danzo had long been tired of hearing this.

He chose the method of being tempted and letting Sarutobi Hiruzen jump into the pit on his own.

"oh......"

Hearing Shimura Danzo's request to "make amends", Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Danzo was not a bad person and a cripple, anything could be done.

"So, Danzo, how do you think Xiaoguang should be asked to make up for his mistakes?"

Coming...

Danzo Shimura pretended to ponder for a while.

"If you fail to perform a mission, you will definitely be punished... But that child Hinata Hikari has a different mind from normal people, so we cannot deal with it hastily..."

"Hmm..." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

"So, I feel that the child should be allowed to perform another mission and complete it perfectly, so that he can convince the public."

What Shimura Danzo said was very reasonable, even Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't find fault with it.

When a ninja receives a mission, he must do his best to complete it.

If you fail, you will either be punished or you will have to make up for your mistakes.

Even Hinata...is no exception.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought, and Shimura Danzo continued.

"To be honest, I am very optimistic about that child..."

When Shimura Danzo said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face gradually became brighter.

"Privately...actually, the old man talked with the kid..."

When Danzo said this again, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.

"The kid agreed to join ANBU."

"What?!"

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed extreme astonishment on his face.

"Anbu? Danzo...Aren't you going to let that kid Xiaoguang die? This time, she survived thanks to Uchiha Takano...Don't you see, Ash?

Did all the Mana children die because of this?"

Anbu often performs various dangerous tasks.

If you don't pay attention, you will die.

"hehe......"

Shimura Danzo sneered, his exposed left eye staring closely at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Aren't you very protective of Hinata Hikaru? If she can have the experience of entering the Anbu, she might be able to reach the top of Konoha in the future, and the separation of families will be eased..."

The Anbu is a place where you can brush up your seniority.

Hinata Hikaru is a member of the family. If he has outstanding abilities, many things can be discussed.

"In the face of difficulties, you are always unable to solve the problem... Is this really good? Let the old man take the blame for everything, make all the decisions, and be the bad guy...

.You continue to maintain your image of the great Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth but was speechless.

Finally, he sighed and agreed with Shimura Danzo's statement.

Shimura Danzo stood up, with his back to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and a cold and vicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After that, the leader of the roots slowly left here with his cane...

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out a blank scroll and wrote down the mission arrangements for Hinata Hikari on it.

This scroll will be quickly delivered to the battlefield headquarters by the ANBU responsible for communications.

Stop writing.

After that, Sarutobi Hiruzen still couldn't bear it, so he added another sentence.

"You can abandon the mission when necessary."
Chapter completed!
