On the other side.
Today, Danzo was refreshed. After getting up, he went to various ninja clans, preparing to take over his future subordinates.
His brain began to fantasize. After taking over this group of personnel, he would immediately plant the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal. When Root returned, he would find a way to deal with the Uchiha.
The first ninja clan he came to was obviously the most important Ino-Shika-Cho!
"Shikaku, Inoichi, Choza."
"Long time no see!"
"Where are the people I want?"
Ino-Shika-Cho was quite cooperative.
Looking at the arrogant Danzo in front of him, Nara Shikaku waved his hand immediately, and then a group of people walked out.
Danzo looked at this group of people in front of him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Very good, farewell!"
After speaking.
He took this group of people in front of him, turned around, and headed out of the Ino-Shika-Cho clan grounds.
In response to this.
Watching Danzo and the others slowly leaving, Yamanaka Inoichi's face was quite ugly: "Danzo is really an idiot. Hasn't he realized until now that more than half of the ninja clans have defected to the Uchiha with their whole clan?"
"I think this is quite normal." Akimichi Choza said slowly: "The village higher-ups have been too proud these years!"
"Whether it was the previous extermination of the Senju and Uzumaki clans, or the deaths of Senju Nawaki, Dan Kato, and Hatake Sakumo, countless successes made them overestimate their abilities. They have long forgotten that if it weren't for the joint promotion of the major ninja clans back then, they alone couldn't have done these things."
"Presumably, in their hearts now, they feel that they have long mastered the major ninja clans, and only the Uchiha clan, this thorn, is worthy of the attention of the Konoha higher-ups."
Nara Shikaku said nothing.
At this moment, he frowned slightly, and his brain began to spin frantically.
To be honest...
He also felt that the current Konoha higher-ups were increasingly unworthy of his closeness, as if their demise was destined long ago.
So.
Should he defect to the Uchiha?
No, absolutely not!
He suddenly thought of the previous Namikaze Minato. Back then, his prestige was even stronger than the Uchiha, but in the end, didn't a Nine-Tails Night suddenly come, and that gentle little sun died?
Better play it safe.
Who knows if the Uchiha will also encounter such a change in the future.
"You two, say less."
"Actually, it's normal for the village not to pay attention. After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't know that Danzo dared to change his authorization order. If under normal circumstances, only seven people were requisitioned from each clan..."
"Perhaps it would give the ninja clans a headache, but they could barely endure it a little."
"Danzo is too arrogant!"
"He actually dared to add a ten in front of the number seven. It's normal for Sarutobi Hiruzen not to expect it."
"And judging from Danzo's arrogance, he doesn't think the ninja clans dare to be presumptuous; even if they see through his little tricks, there is a high probability that they will continue to endure."
"But, unfortunately."
"Danzo thought wrong. Now is not like the past."
"In the past, the ninja clans had no choice. Now, with the rise of the Uchiha, how could the major ninja clans who have choices continue to bear it?"
Nara Shikaku sighed softly.
His tone remained very calm, as if no matter what happened, it couldn't make him panic.
Hearing these words, Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza couldn't help but shake their heads, too lazy to continue thinking about these messy things.
Yamanaka Inoichi asked: "Shikaku, are you going to work today?"
"Why don't you take a day off?" Akimichi Choza suggested: "There will definitely be a big shock in the Hokage Building today, and Sarutobi Hiruzen will most likely go crazy."
But, unfortunately.
Hearing this, Nara Shikaku still shook his head.
His eyes were very profound, and then he sneered: "The more things like this happen, the less I can be absent. Since we chose to stay, we also have to show loyalty!"
"And I also need to grasp the next actions of the Konoha higher-ups. What exactly our half of Ino-Shika-Cho should do in the future, I will know after I return from the Hokage Building this time."
"You two go back and rest."
After speaking.
Nara Shikaku left the clan grounds directly and walked all the way to the Hokage Building.
In response to this.
Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza's eyes also began to become serious.
"I think next, we also have to be prepared."
"The Konoha higher-ups are not fools. They can definitely think of Ino-Shika-Cho's arrangement. In order to avoid the Konoha higher-ups jumping over the wall in desperation, we also have to prepare for the worst as soon as possible."
Yamanaka Inoichi's tone was solemn.
Hearing these words, Akimichi Choza also began to become very cautious: "I'll go back and invite the ancestor. This matter might require him to show his face."
"Hmm, that's good." Yamanaka Inoichi had no objection.
Immediately after.
The two who made the decision also began to act separately.
...
On the other side.
Danzo took this group of Ino-Shika-Cho experts refreshedly. After leaving the Nara clan grounds, he prepared to go to the Aburame clan grounds.
However.
Just as they passed the Uchiha clan grounds, all the Ino-Shika-Cho members ran towards the Uchiha like crazy.
Danzo: "..."
He was bewildered.
At this moment, his mind went blank, and he just stood there dumbfounded, even subconsciously forgetting to chase.
There was no helping it!
He really didn't expect that such a thing would happen in front of him?
At this moment, his mind had only one thought, and that was, are these Ino-Shika-Cho crazy?
Ten seconds later.
Just as he was preparing to try to chase, he found that this group of people had already run to the Uchiha clan grounds, and even a large group of Uchiha had surrounded them.
"Damn it, bastards!"
"This must be Nara Shikaku's calculation. I'll settle accounts with him later."
"Go to the Aburame clan grounds first!"
Danzo's face was gloomy, and he spoke viciously.
Yes!
Well-versed in the essence of 'survival', now alone, he had no interest in confronting the Uchiha head-on.
Even if he wanted to find fault with the Uchiha, he had to gather some experts at least.
So, he retreated.
He even used the Body Flicker Technique directly, and then quickly arrived at the Aburame clan grounds.
Then...
He was dumbfounded!
Looking at the empty Aburame clan grounds, which was like a ghost domain, Danzo felt his brain was not enough.
Where are the people?
He suddenly had a very bad feeling. Anxious, he went to the Inuzuka clan again.
Hehe, still empty!
Danzo: "..."
His face became uglier and uglier, and then he ran to other ninja clans.
But, damn it.
Empty!
Still empty!
Any ninja clan he visited yesterday, the clan grounds were all empty now.
Why?
Danzo felt his brain was about to explode. Just as he was preparing to go to the next clan grounds, he was stopped by an Anbu on the road.
"Danzo-sama!"
"Hokage-sama invites you to go to the Hokage's office immediately!"
