Konoha: I, Uchiha, am full of positive energy

Chapter 60
"Intelligence leaked"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was cold, he even put down the pipe in his hand, and then asked Hatake Sakumo in a solemn voice: "Sakumo, are you sure?"

"I'm sure, Hokage-sama."

Hatake Sakumo said decisively: "There are no lies in the head of Suna Ninja Village's Suna Shinobi. What's more, the first group of people from Suna Ninja Village arrived in the River Country almost at the same time as us. Only if they got the information in advance can they explain it!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a somewhat ugly expression: "This is Konoha's most secret mission in the near future. Sakumo, I will ask the ANBU to investigate strictly. After your team has received treatment, they will come to the Hokage Building to report again. This sand Hand over Shinobu's head to the interrogation team."

It looked like this was going to be a serious investigation, but Danzo, the instigator, didn't panic at all. No matter how much he checked, he couldn't be found.

But Danzo felt it was a pity that he let Hatake Sakumo complete the task.

Although he failed to perfectly assassinate the Daimyo of the Land of the River, in the end, the evil Uchiha brat poured dirty water on the Suna Ninja Village, which can be regarded as helping Hatake Sakumo to make amends.

Damn!

Danzo secretly resented it in his heart, but he felt that he could still make something of this mission. After all, Hatake Sakumo also revealed his identity, and the Daming Palace might not be willing to accept this situation.

"Sakumo, please go back and rest first. I will let the ANBU investigate the intelligence leak. You will accompany me to Daming Mansion in two days."

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused for a moment, then continued: "Your team has completed this S-level mission."

This sentence can be regarded as the conclusion of the mission to assassinate the daimyo of the River Country. Danzo on the side suddenly felt anxious; but he couldn't say anything now. If he didn't have a suitable excuse, it would probably make Sarutobi Hidden. Zhan doubted him.

"I see, Hokage-sama."

After Hatake Sakumo finished speaking, he nodded and left the Hokage's office.

After Hatake Sakumo left, Danzo suddenly said: "Hiruzen, are you sure you want to count this mission as completed for Hatake Sakumo?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said, "Danzo, what do you mean by this?"

"You don't need to tell me about the prestige of Konoha White Fang in the village. Yan also said it when he went to the Daming Mansion last time to discuss the mission. When the daimyo heard that Konoha White Fang was leading the team for this mission, he immediately became satisfied.

If you expect Hatake Sakumo to complete the mission this time, the daimyo's trust in him will be even more profound and will reach a point where no one can shake it."

Danzo's words silenced the room. He knew what Sarutobi Hiruzen, an old friend, cared about, so he chose his weaknesses to explain.

To select the Hokage, you must first gain the trust of the ninjas in the village. After voting, they, the senior officials of Konoha and the Fire Nation, will jointly select the person.

Now Hatake Sakumo's reputation in the village is not even comparable to that of the three ninjas. He is trusted by the ninjas in the village, and the daimyo also trusts him very much. He is the next Hokage.

If you select all the ninjas in Konoha Village, is there anyone who can compare with Konoha White Fang?

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a while. He lit his pipe again, took a puff and slowly exhaled the smoke. After a while, he said: "This matter is related to the funding of Konoha Village, so The task must be completed."

Once the task is completed, the funds allocated to Konoha by the Daming Prefecture next year will increase by several hundred million taels, which is not a small amount; the border friction is becoming more and more intense, and the village needs this money to prepare for war.

However, what Danzo said made sense, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself.

Hatake Sakumo was not the most suitable candidate for Hokage in his mind. From when Hatake Sakumo was still in school, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that Hatake Sakumo had his own principles and his personal ideas were very firm.The new Hokage is often inexperienced and needs the help of the older generation at this time. If it is Hatake Sakumo, he may not listen to their opinions, but will firmly change Konoha according to his own ideas.

this is not good!

"Just make your own decision. After all, you are the Hokage."

Danzo snorted coldly, and walked out of the Hokage's office after saying this. In the past, when he heard Hiruzen choke him with these words, he always felt angry in his heart. Today, he used these words to choke Hiruzen, but he felt Extra comfort.

After leaving the Hokage's office, Danzo thought to himself: "As for who cares most about Hokage's position, Hiruzen, you are the only one, not even me!"

------------

"Go back, Kakashi, what you have gained this time is enough for you to wear chakra metal all over your body. It is more than enough to even make a pair of armor!"

"That would be too luxurious, captain. You still have to remember the three ninja taboos, but I want to make a ninja uniform like yours to use to carry weight and practice sword skills."

Even though Kakashi was wearing a mask, he still couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Money has magic power. The greater the amount, the greater the magic power. This is the second time Kakashi has received so much money, and he can't help but want to buy something good for himself.

The Daming Mansion of River Country had too much money. Even if the two of them only took away the money, the harvest would be three to four hundred million taels.

There are still many things that cannot be taken away. Daming Mansion has a lot of income. In addition to national taxes, there are also shop land deeds, various fixed properties and other contracts, which are enough to fill a large box. Almost the entire River Kingdom is Daming Mansion. of private property.

There really wasn't much cash, even in the Daming Mansion, most of the money was deposited in the bank. Uchiha Yang gave up as soon as he couldn't withdraw it.

"After returning this time, Gates doesn't have to worry about food. Part of it will be used as food expenses for Gates, and another part will be invested in the pharmaceutical factory and ninja games. The rest will be used to hire bounty hunters to steal from Star Ninja Village. Star Stone.”

Uchiha Yoichi made a plan for the money he received. This time, all the money from the pharmaceutical factory was used to pre-purchase medicinal materials and signed a 30-year contract with them. In the future, medicinal materials can only be supplied to Uchiha Pharmaceutical Factory.

If you violate the contract, you will either lose money or lose your life.

It's just that things in the River Kingdom have become a bit big. He, the bounty hunter of the underground money exchange, killed his employer. If this matter is not handled well, the underground money exchange will basically not be able to continue to operate.

Maybe the underground gold exchange would pay for it themselves and hire someone to find him; but fortunately Uchiha Yoichi was more cautious and would avoid leaking his identity every time he went to the underground gold exchange.

For a long time to come, Uchiha Yoichi had no intention of going to an underground money exchange, not to mention that he was no longer short of money recently.

After discussing with Kakashi, the two of them returned all the way to Konoha Village. It was not very safe outside at this time, so the sooner they went back, the better.

After returning to Konoha, before he could get home, Uchiha Yoichi was called over by the second elder.

After taking their seats, Elder Kenji's daughter-in-law brought two cups of tea and then left.

Uchiha Kenji picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip, and then said: "Yoichi, you have caused quite a stir this time. Even the Daimyo knows your name."
