Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 410
Three days later, when Lei Luo returned to Konoha again, dismissed the team members, and walked into the dark and deep root base alone, he actually had a strange feeling of intimacy with this place.

After careful calculation, it took Lei Luo more than two months from the time Konoha left to carry out the mission until now when he returned after completing the mission.

In the past two months, he has experienced too many things, whether it is dealing a heavy blow to Wuyin Village, saving the Uzumaki clan, or manipulating the coup in Uzumaki Village and becoming an ally with Uzumaki.

And met the two original characters Yahiko Konan by chance, and accepted three "registered disciples", and started the plan for the eyes of reincarnation and the land of rain.

The occurrence of this series of events not only invisibly changed Lei Luo's character, thinking, and philosophy to some extent.

It made him at this time deeply feel that he was approaching step by step the goal he set a year ago.

Constantly moving forward and struggling, constantly improving his own strength, makes Lei Luo sincerely happy, because this kind of life makes him feel very fulfilled, and it also makes him less and less willing to hide his true nature.

Just like at this moment, when Danzo heard the news and hurried to him, Lei Luo's first words were: "I have killed three generations of Mizukage, and there are also two Renzhuriki from Wuyin Village. "

"For this, I want to get paid accordingly."

The death of the third Mizukage has spread in the ninja world.

As for the death of Six-Tails Jinchuriki, because countless Wunin witnessed his death in the explosion at that time, Wuyin Village didn't hide anything about it.

But the Three-Tails Jinchuriki...

Danzo thought about it for a while, a look of doubt flashed across his old face, and he asked, "Three-tailed Jinchuriki is also dead? In other words, there is no one Jinchuriki in Wuyin Village?"

Realizing that Danzo didn't seem to know about this, Lei Luo was also a little puzzled:
Could it be that Wuyin Village concealed the death of Jinchuriki the Three Tails?
But what's the point?
Don't think about it if you don't understand it. This is Lei Luo's long-standing habit, so he simply replied:
"Yes, Wuyin Village no longer has Renzhuli."

Seeing Lei Luo's face was extremely determined when he spoke, and because of the trust foundation of many good cooperations, Danzo hardly hesitated, and confirmed the authenticity of the death of Sanwei Jinchuriki.

"follow me."

Without saying any more, Danzo waved to Lei Luo, then turned around and walked towards the depths of the base.

Guessing that Danzo probably had to pay the reward, Lei Luo didn't say much, and followed in silence.

After walking along the aisle for a while, turning a few turns in the middle, going deeper underground along the slope, and passing through several heavily guarded checkpoints, Lei Luo followed Danzo to the door of a damp and dark room.

Through the previous several direction changes, Lei Luo judged that this place should be the lowest level of the root base, and it must be at least a hundred meters away from the surface.

This can be seen from the surrounding soil and rocks that have not yet been tiled and are still exposed in the air.

The scattered long candlesticks scattered on both sides of the aisle, as well as a few oil lamps mounted on the wall, barely reflected the whole picture of the underground room.

In the room in front of it, above and below, there are tight rock formations, as if being sandwiched in the middle of densely packed earth and rocks.

The heavy iron gate, about two meters high, was off-white as a whole, with a strong metallic texture and a rusty smell.

What you see in front of you gives people the feeling that a deeper cave has been opened up in this dark underground space.

"This is the laboratory of the Mutun Project, and it is also where you want, the storage place of the first generation of Hokage cells."

Lifting his crutches and tapping the iron gate, Danzo briefly introduced the place.

Afterwards, he pondered for a while, and instead of opening the iron door immediately, he turned to look at Lei Luo.

"Lei Luo, the old man wants to know one thing."

The voice that came from the ear seemed to contain a different emotion than before, it seemed extremely serious, but it also seemed to be a little complicated.

Noticing that Danzo's state was not right at this time, Lei Luo looked at him and realized that the other party's eyes were full of strong scrutiny, and the way he looked at himself was completely different from before.

Lei Luo looked at Danzo suspiciously, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Taking a deep breath, Danzo didn't answer in a hurry, but turned around first, stared at Lei Luo without blinking, and didn't speak for a while.

At this moment, his eyes were almost narrowed into a thin slit, his expression was focused, and his old face seemed to have no emotion at all, as if he wanted to see Lei Luo clearly.

After about tens of seconds, just when Lei Luo was a little impatient, Danzo said:

"Have you ever thought about... being Hokage?"

Danzo raised this question so directly, to be honest, it was beyond Lei Luo's expectations. Could it be that Danzo is... a showdown?
At this moment, Lei Luo thought about it for a second or two, and finally decided to tell the truth: "I thought about it."

As he said that, without waiting for Danzo to react, Lei Luo spread his hands pretending to be helpless and said, "However, based on what I'm doing with you now, Hiruza Sarutobi will not allow me to be Hokage anyway. Bar?"

Lei Luo knew in his heart that he didn't do enough to attack Mizukage Mizukage without telling Sarutobi Hiruzen. He even killed the two Jinzhuriki of Wuyin Village, completely offending the Dainin Village to death.

In this case, it seriously violated the peaceful concept that Hiruza Sarutobi had always advocated. Just thinking about it, you can know what kind of attitude Hiruza Sarutobi would have towards him, Lei Luo.

If you want to be Hokage, it may really just be a thought.

of course……

The reason why he said this at this moment is not that Lei Luo gave up the idea of ​​becoming Hokage, but that he wanted to test Danzo...to test the position of this old friend Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

Perhaps because he vaguely sensed Lei Luo's temptation, Danzo smiled meaningfully:
"Although Hirazan is the third generation of Hokage, his opinion is even more important when it comes to the appointment of the next generation of Hokage."

"But……"

Speaking of this, Danzo changed the subject, and Shi Shiran continued: "This does not mean that you, Lei Luo, have no chance at all."

"Daimyo's identification, Jonin vote of confidence, and these two methods can help you achieve the goal of stabilizing people's hearts."

Lei Luo naturally knows a thing or two about the two methods mentioned by Danzo, but in his opinion, these methods are just useless tricks.

As long as Hiruzaru Sarutobi is alive, whether it's a daimyo or Konoha's Jonin, the opinion of this third Hokage will always be the first priority.

Lei Luo didn't think that Danzo would be unaware of the doorway, but the other party deliberately said this at this time, and there must be a deep meaning, as if... there is something in the words.

"So, what do you think?"

Facing Lei Luo's question, Danzo did not answer immediately this time, but changed the subject again and asked directly:
"Lei Luo, what do you think of Rizen's foreign policy?"
