Chapter 259: Danzo's empty promises!

"The Uchiha clan supports Minato Namikaze!"

The Uchiha, who had been silent until then, jumped out.

Before this, they didn't even vote for Orochimaru.

But now he is openly supporting Minato Namikaze, which can be said to be a big gamble.

Because this would run the risk of offending Orochimaru, and if he really wanted to take over, there was a possibility that he would "settle old scores".

While he clearly distinguishes between rewards and punishments, Orochimaru is not one to have a good temper and will not retaliate when he is slapped in the face.

Therefore, once he comes to power, he will definitely make things difficult for the Uchiha clan.

Following Uchiha Fugaku's statement, nearly twenty Uchiha jonin cast their votes of confidence at the same time.

There were less than two hundred jonin at the scene, and the Uchiha clan accounted for more than 10%, not including the eldest branch.

What is the meaning of "Konoha's giants" (tactical retreat!).

Before everyone could recover from Uchiha's statement, another ninja stood up.

"The Hyuga clan also supports Minato Namikaze!"

Hyuga Hiashi stood out under countless gazes and calmly stated the Hyuga clan's choice.

Boom, boom!

Another dozen kunai hit the target.

As a result, Namikaze Minato's votes instantly increased from less than half to more than 60%.

Orochimaru, who was watching this scene, no longer had the calm and confident look as before, but instead had a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

No matter how smart he was, he never expected to be stabbed in the back by his teacher!

Uchiha is easier to say.

It can be said that it was because of the relationship between Uchiha Mikoto and Uzumaki Kushina that they decided to take a gamble.

But the Hyuga clan has always been extremely low-key, and they just follow whoever becomes Hokage.

They suddenly jumped out, which made Orochimaru think of something in an instant.

Whizzing!

The Inuzuka clan, the Yushui clan... and several other small clans also voted.

And they have a unified identity.

Naruto series!
Even if they are not core ninja clans like Ino-Shika-Chou, they are definitely dependent on the Hokage system, and their votes are enough to explain some problems.

Before today, Orochimaru thought that his only competitor was Jiraiya, and after the other party gave up, he would be the only candidate.

It's not that he is naive, but because he really never thought that the teacher would give up on him and choose Minato Namikaze.

Therefore, it is normal for the future to fall into darkness.

Don't you think I don't have the will of fire?
Okay, I will follow your orders and fall into darkness with Danzo to sever the ties between us.

This is also the reason why he will be so crazy in the future. Not only will he conduct Wood Release experiments, but he will also extend his evil hands to his own village. No one will believe him if he says it was not intentional.

There is really no shortage of experimental subjects in the ninja world.

This explains why Sarutobi Hiruzen let the other party go, because Orochimaru's fate was entirely caused by him.

can only say.

Only when you really come to the ninja world and see these flesh-and-blood beings, can you understand why there are some stupid parts in anime.

For example, the third generation was killed alone in the center of the village, Orochimaru captured villagers as experimental subjects... and so on.

"Tsk tsk, Orochimaru was stabbed in the back by his own teacher!"

Tang Ping sighed and turned away, eating melons without thinking about the trouble.

There's nothing much to see below.

Danzo wanted to nominate himself, but not only did he perform very poorly in the Ninja World War, but he was also over the age limit.

Under normal circumstances, as long as everyone is sane, they will not choose him, so they will not jump out in a hurry, but will choose to cooperate with Orochimaru.

"Backstab...I see!"

Koji Yamama's brain is not as rough as his appearance. He immediately realized why Minato Namikaze was able to pass the vote of confidence.

It would be absolutely impossible without the Third Hokage's hint or instruction.

As for whether their early departure would seem disrespectful to others.

Will Tang Ping care?

His character in the village was rebellious and rebellious, so it was surprising that he could participate in the Hokage election, not to mention such a "small matter" as leaving early.

But we're only halfway there.

Whoosh!
A masked figure appeared in front of them.

"Uchiha Dohei, Lord Danzo wants to see you!"

This Root Ninja had an extremely peaceful attitude, and was not at all overbearing when facing other people.

There was no way. Others were extremely afraid of their Root, but even Danzo behind them dared to confront them, let alone them.

For the sake of safety, this Root Ninja naturally knew what attitude to use.

"You go first!"

Dou Ping signaled Hinata Sogetsu and Yamama Koji to leave, and prepared to go to the appointment alone. Of course, he was not afraid of any tricks that Danzo might play.

With his strength, if he really uses tricks, he will definitely not be the unlucky one.

So Danzo must have really something to ask him this time, and he is not just trying to cause trouble.

After letting the two leave first, Tang Ping's eyes flashed with anticipation. He felt that his 'big brother on the list' was going to give him benefits again.

The other party has paid a lot for my growth.

Even though it was a benefit that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't dare to give, as the leader of the Root, he had no scruples.

For example, the art of spiritualization!

If it wasn't Danzo who came to negotiate, the others wouldn't have been so straightforward and decisive, and the negotiations might even have failed.

Because they will place great importance on the interests of Konoha.

As for Danzo, that’s another story.

He has the mentality of a son selling his father's land without feeling any pain.

Anyway, he is not the Hokage now.

Dou Ping is extremely covetous of Konoha's countless resources.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

As long as I can get some benefits from it, I can eat it to my heart's content.

For example, several small ninja clans provided him with not only a dozen ninjas, but also dozens of young people with ninja potential and a number of managers.

No one in Konoha would even look at this small ninja clan seriously, which shows the potential of Konoha.

Soon, Tang Ping followed the other party to the roof of a small building.

It was common for ninjas to discuss matters on rooftops like this, so this meeting place wasn't surprising.

"I wonder if Danzo 'sama' called me here to reprimand me for something?"

As soon as they met, Tang Ping said something sarcastic to the other person.

When we met before, he would always use moral blackmail and accusations against me, so his attitude was not surprising.

"How dare you..."

But the roots that lead the way cannot be tolerated.

In their hearts, Tuan Zang was the only light, so they reached out to draw their swords, but were stopped.

"You go down first!"

Danzo gave the order directly.

"Yes, Lord Danzo!"

No matter how angry this Root ninja was, he retreated respectfully.

I have to say that under Yuge no Yamato, Yamato is really strong. The entire Root is a sharp blade in his hand, and he can even assassinate the Hokage without any objection.

Danzo spoke only when there were only two people left on the roof.

"Uchiha Dohei, if you are willing to join the Root, my position will be yours in the future, and you also know what the Root represents..."

Good guy, Tang Ping exclaimed, good guy.

I don’t know who Danzo learned this trick of making promises as soon as they meet.

It is totally overthinking to wait for him to step down from this position. According to the original timeline, it will take at least ten years, by which time the opportunity will be lost.

"I don't want to be a rat that hides in the dark. If you have something to say, just tell me directly. I don't have time to waste with you!"

Tang Ping did not comment.

He won't eat the pie drawn by the other party.

"I think you have seen it just now. Hiruzen is interested in that brat Minato Namikaze. If you support Orochimaru with me, you will definitely get a lot of benefits in the future!"

Danzo stopped pretending and came clean, ready to get him to support Orochimaru.

Once Orochimaru comes to power, he will be able to seize a lot of power, and then find an opportunity to kick Orochimaru out and become the real Hokage.

"If this is all your sincerity, then I think there is nothing more to talk about between us!"

Tang Ping turned around and made a move to leave.

If Orochimaru comes to power in the end, it will indeed be a win-win situation.

But he knew very well that the person who was promoted this time was not the other party, so forget about this kind of thing of getting something for nothing.

"Well, what do you want?"

Danzo asked directly.

Putting Orochimaru in power is an extremely important part of his plan, and he will not allow it to fail.

"What I want is simple for Master Danzo!"

A smile flashed in Tang Ping's eyes.

Because he was trying to find a way to get something from the other party, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come.

What he wants is not objects, but people.

A woman!
