The Road to the Throne of White Eyes

Chapter 241 Chaos in the Ninja World

"What's going on in the ninja world lately? Why are all these weird things happening?"

In the Hokage's office in Konoha Village, Utane Koharu, who was notified to attend a meeting at the last minute, listened to the information from Sarutobi Hiruzen and rubbed her temples with a look of pain on her face.

Listening to his old friend's words, Mitomon Yan nodded in agreement.

Sarutobi Hiruzen blew out a puff of smoke with an unhappy expression before continuing, "In the Sand Village, the Fifth Kazekage, Gaara, died less than a year after taking the throne. Old Lady Chiyo is now acting as regent. Intelligence indicates they plan to re-elect the Kazekage in the near future, most likely from Maki or the border guard commander, Fuyoshi.

It was said that the Sand Ninjas had been clamoring for revenge against the Akatsuki organization, and had already sent some ninjas to track them down.

We'll have to wait for Kakashi to compile and report more specific information. He's currently in a coma and recuperating in the hospital due to excessive exhaustion."

That’s right, Kakashi has returned to Konoha, and he came back lying down!

"He falls down every time he fights, and I don't see him achieving anything. How can Kakashi have the nerve to be called Konoha's engineer, with that face that can even knock out a nurse at Konoha Hospital?"

It seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Kakashi for not completing the set mission goals, and Danzo looked disdainful when he mentioned Kakashi.

"Stop joking," Utane Koharu rolled her eyes at Danzo and continued, "According to this report, the strength of the Akatsuki organization cannot be underestimated.

With only two members, they almost challenged the entire Sand Village. The masked man at the end also had time and space ninjutsu, which was also very suspicious.

There are also other ninjutsu that prevented Jiraiya, Kakashi and others from rescuing them. This organization may bring great trouble to the ninja world."

Nodding in agreement, Mitomon En also looked worried.

"Such a powerful and mysterious organization will definitely not be content with being alone. Since they are collecting tailed beasts, the Nine-Tails will sooner or later become their target, and Konoha will sooner or later confront them.

By the way, where are Jiraiya and Naruto?"

Sarutobi: "Naruto was taken to Myoboku Mountain by Jiraiya to learn Sage Mode. This time, Jiraiya was unable to defeat the enemy, which led to the Fifth Generation Kazegakure being engulfed by the opponent's space-time ninjutsu, and ultimately his body was completely destroyed.

Jiraiya said that the enemy was very strong and that he had to hurry up to train Naruto. And after settling Naruto down, he planned to go investigate the Akatsuki organization. According to the intelligence Jiraiya had gathered over the past few years, the Akatsuki organization's base was most likely in the Land of Rain.

"The Land of Rain?"

Hearing this name, Danzo couldn't help but frown, as if recalling something bad. However, Danzo didn't say anything, but instead changed the subject.

"Since Jiraiya has already investigated the Akatsuki organization, let's put it aside for now. I have some intelligence on the Kumogakure that I need to share.

The Cloud Village has been carrying out a large-scale purge of spies these days, and many Root intelligence personnel have been sacrificed. Fortunately, the good news was still delivered.

According to intelligence, the Fourth Raikage Ai has not appeared for some time. Also missing with him are Mabui, Samui, and nearly a thousand elite Cloud Ninjas.

Darui is currently acting as the Raikage of the Kumogakure Village, and Root intelligence indicates that the Kumogakure and Raikage may have been killed in the Snow Country."

"Snow Country!"

Utatane Koharu looked bewildered and said, "How could the Snow Country possibly have such strength? Even if the remnants of the Hyuga and Uchiha clans joined the Snow Shinobi Village, they wouldn't be able to do such a thing. Danzo, are you sure about the authenticity of your information?"

"Danzo's news should not be false. The Anbu has also received similar intelligence, indicating that more than a thousand Kumo ninjas have disappeared.

What's more, the border troops from the Cloud Village actually retreated hundreds of miles on their own initiative. If they hadn't suffered heavy losses, it would be impossible for these barbarians from the Cloud Village to retreat so quietly! "

Sarutobi Hiruzen said this with a bitter face, and then he spoke to comfort himself.

"This is good news, at least the threat from the Cloud Village is gone."

"Hiruzen!"

Mitomon En said unhappily, "This is not good news. Although the pressure on the Kumogakure is a little less, we must be wary of the strength of the Hyuga clan. I didn't expect that the Hyuga clan and some of the remnants of the Uchiha clan alone would be so powerful.

He has quite a grudge against us, especially the Uchiha clan, so we have to be careful."

"We should have eliminated these criminals earlier!"

Danzo's face darkened completely. "They actually let these guys become so powerful. By the way, Hiruzen, what about the black market? Have you found out any information? Do you know how the Snow Ninja Village defeated the Cloud Ninja Village? How much damage did they suffer?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, "Nothing!

The situation in the Snow Country was extremely strange, like a whirlpool that had swallowed up all the black market bounty hunters. This included the people sent by the Anbu, who had no news at all.

Currently, no one is accepting the black market bounty for information about the Snow Country! "

Utatane Koharu was very dissatisfied with the efficiency of intelligence gathering. "We must speed up intelligence gathering, otherwise how are we going to make arrangements if we don't even know the basic situation of the enemy?"

After a pause, she continued, "Neither the Akatsuki nor the Snow Shinobi Village are easy enemies to deal with. Tsunade is missing, Jiraiya is on the loose, and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is of little use. We urgently need to increase our strength!"

"That's right, we need to increase our strength! Sarutobi, we asked the Ino, Shika, and Chou families to send people, but they haven't responded yet."

Thinking of the three families' silent resistance, Danzo's eyes flashed coldly.

"These three families are all vassals of the Sarutobi family, and now they are unwilling to contribute any manpower. Could it be that they think the Sarutobi family is no longer viable and have changed their minds to strive for a higher position?"

"Will not!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was firm and decisive.

"Lu Jiu and the others are smart people. They know what to do and what not to do. Even though they didn't hand over the names right away after we gave them the list, they didn't object strongly either.

The relationship between the Sarutobi family and these three families is unbreakable."

"indestructible?"

Danzo scoffed at Sarutobi Hiruzen's words.

"The heads of the three families have been in hiding for days, expressing their disapproval. If we don't teach this kind of guy a lesson, he might try to take advantage of the Sarutobi clan.

Not to mention when they become like the Hyuga clan!"

"Danzo, you're so excited!"

As if his pain point was stimulated, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was a little distorted.

"They're just disappearing for a few days to think things over. Don't worry, Danzo. Give them some time and they'll figure it out."

When saying this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was cold and his eyes were icy. Sarutobi Hiruzen had already decided that if Nara Shikaku and the others couldn't figure it out, he would help them figure it out!
