Hokage: Ryo’s Path

After the meeting, Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Ryo returned to Hokage's office together.

"Yuan, what evidence do you really have?" Namikaze Minato asked anxiously as soon as he sat down.

Yamanaka Ryo looked at Namikaze Minato with disdain and replied: "Brother Minato, do you believe this too? You Hokage is too naive!"

"Ahem! Who said I believed it? I didn't believe it. I was trying to persuade you to calm down and stop playing around." Namikaze Minato blushed and quickly explained.

"Okay, you don't believe me. Brother Minato, get down to business! The Third Hokage and Danzo will definitely come, and then you can't be soft-hearted. Danzo's roots are too much of a threat. At least let his roots be paralyzed!"

When it came to business, Namikaze Minato also became serious: "Well, I know that!"

As Yamanaka Ryo said, Sandai Hokage and Danzo walked into Hokage's office a few minutes later.

As soon as Danzo entered the door and saw Ryo Yamanaka, his face immediately darkened.

"Yo! Danzo-sama, you don't want to see me so much? Then I'd better go out and show the scroll to others!" Saying that, Yamanaka Ryo got up and was about to leave.

Seeing this, the Third Hokage hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Yuan, Danzo didn't mean that, so don't be impulsive."

"Yuan, stop making trouble! Both Sandaime and Danzo are your seniors! Respect them!" Namikaze Minato told Yamanaka Ryo to stop making trouble.

Yamanaka Ryo pouted and sat down. Sandai Hokage and Danzo also sat down on the other side.

"Minato! Danzo and I came here to talk about the Land of Rain. Danzo didn't mean to collude with Urenin Village. Danzo and I have known each other for so many years. Danzo is absolutely the most loyal to Konoha. of."

Namikaze Minato was not angry when he heard the words, but still asked very politely: "Sandaimu, don't you ask Danzo who is assisting Hanzo in the siege?"

I still have great respect for the third Hokage Namikaze Minato, not to mention that this old man has dedicated his whole life to Konoha and deserves his respect.

The Third Hokage was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Danzo, and saw Danzo's expression with a bit of doubt.

"Namikaze Minato, who are those three people? What does it have to do with our Konoha?" Danzo asked Namakaze Minato.

Yamanakato frowned when he heard Danzo calling Namikaze Minato's name directly, and Chakra broke out directly: "Master Danzo, is Namikaze Minato also called by you?"

The Third Hokage was a little dissatisfied with Yamanakato's behavior, but he couldn't understand Danzo's unreasonable behavior, so he simply didn't stop it.

Danzo saw that the third Hokage had no intention of making a move, so he had no choice but to succumb: "Old man, I made a slip of the tongue, Master Hokage, may I ask who are those people?"

Yamanakato took back the Chakra, and Namikaze Minato said slowly: "These three are the reason why Jiraiya-sensei has been in the Land of Rain for three years. They are all Jiraiya-sensei's disciples."

Third Hokage's complexion changed drastically, and he quickly confirmed with Namikaze Minato: "What? What Minato said is true?"

Yamanaka Ryo sneered and said, "Of course what Minato said is true. One of these three people is called Yahiko, one is called Konan, and the other is called Nagato. They are all disciples of Uncle Jiraiya. If you let Danzo Uncle Jiraiya knows that if you kill his disciple, will he kill you to pay for his life?"

Danzo's face became more and more gloomy, he didn't know the identities of Nagato's three people at all.

The Third Hokage was also a little confused. He didn't expect that the person Danzo killed would be Jiraiya's disciple, his grandson.

"This old man doesn't know about it at all, besides, the person who killed him was Hanzo!"

Danzo's defense seemed so pale, Sandai Hokage glanced at Danzo, sighed, and his whole person aged a little in an instant.

"Danzo, you are inseparable from this matter, and I can't help you now! As a master, I can't let my disciples and grandchildren who have never met have died with regret! You should take care of this matter yourself!" After speaking, Sandai Hokage got up and left.

As soon as the third Hokage left, the Hokage office fell into silence for a while. Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Ryo looked at each other, but neither spoke first.

After a few minutes, Danzo couldn't sit still anymore, he snorted coldly and said: "This is the end of the matter, the old man doesn't want to say anything, Hokage-sama will tell you your conditions!"

Namikaze Minato thought for a while and said his conditions: "Danzo, I want you to agree to two things. One is that the Genbu will be disbanded from today, and only a small team in Anbu will be left to guard the information of the Genbu. Second Hokage The position of consultant, Danzo, please resign on your own initiative!"

Danzo immediately stood up and said, "What? It's impossible, you guys."

"Master Danzo, I advise you to think carefully. If you refuse, I will disclose the contents of the scroll without hesitation, and Uncle Jiraiya will immediately know that his disciple died in your hands. You Have you thought about it clearly?" Yamanaka Ryo interrupted Danzo's words.

Danzo's face became more and more gloomy, and finally he sighed and said, "Just do as you said, this time I lost!" Danzo also left Hokage's office after speaking.

Seeing Danzo leave, Namikaze Minato breathed a sigh of relief. In this case, the fundamental matter has been satisfactorily resolved.

Yamanakato was still a little dissatisfied with this result. Although Danzo was seriously injured this time, he did not kill him completely.

"Brother Shuimen, why don't you just be tougher? Make him completely unable to turn over?"

"This matter is not that simple! Danzo has a lot of power in his hands. Half of Konoha's small and medium-sized families obey his orders. If Danzo is pushed into a hurry, he is likely to jump over the wall in a hurry," Namikaze Minato explained.

Yamanaka Ryo shook his head and said: "I don't think so, Brother Minato, Danzo is ruthless, greedy for power, these are all right. But there is one thing, he is really loyal to Konoha, otherwise the third Hokage would not condone him for so long."

After hearing Yamanakato's words, Namikaze Minato was taken aback, he didn't expect Yamanakato to say that.

"Okay, Brother Minato, I'm leaving! I still have things to do with Uncle Snake." After speaking, Yamanakato disappeared into Hokage's office.

After Yamanaka Ryo left, Namikaze Minato recalled what he said, and said to himself: "Are you loyal to Konoha? I hope so!" After speaking, he threw himself into tedious work.

The next day, there was a big earthquake in Konoha, Hokage Advisor Danzo announced his resignation in public, resigned from all positions and retired, and even most of the roots he had formed were disbanded.

Of course, the disbandment of Root is confidential, after all, not many people knew about it when it was established.

Except for the high-level Konoha who participated in the meeting that night, everyone else was puzzled. The topic of Konoha Ninja for many days to come was related to Danzo.

Yamanaka Ryo didn't have time to talk to Danzo, because on Orochimaru's side, Suzune had an unexpected change when fusing the first-generation cells.

Danzo wrote here, and he left for the time being.
