Chapter 392: Dou Ping: A 'gift' for Danzo's old friend!
Sarutobi Hiruzen arrived not long after.
However, as soon as he arrived at the Aburame clan's territory, he saw the Hyuga, Uchiha, Nara... Inuzuka and other ninja clan leaders standing in the courtyard, staring at the figure in front of them who exuded an aura of 'despair'.
Oil girl Zhiwei!
In addition to being the head of the Aburame clan, she is also an elite jonin, and many of Konoha's high-ranking officials know her.
However, at this moment, the other party stood still like a 'walking corpse'.
"Zhiwei, where are you...and where are the other tribesmen?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen rushed over as soon as he received the report. He didn't know the situation at that time, so he asked.
"It's gone... all gone!"
Aburame Shiwei answered bitterly.
Upon hearing this, Hyuga Hyuga, Nara Shikaku... Inuzuka Tsume and other ninja clan leaders felt the same way and their faces became extremely ugly, like a suppressed volcano.
"What do you mean?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen had not yet realized what these words meant.
It was not until an Anbu came forward and reported in a low voice that he finally understood why the other party was like that.
No one can stand this kind of thing.
All the ninjas of a clan were "recruited" into the Root, which was equivalent to having no future.
Although there are still ordinary tribesmen who can be trained again.
However, it takes more than ten years to train a ninja from childhood to adulthood.
Not only will a huge amount of resources be invested in the process, but there is also the possibility of facing a large number of risks.
In other words, the Aburame clan is now almost equivalent to "genocide".
Directly removed from the ranks of the ninja clan.
If there is only one ninja, they are not qualified to be called a ninja clan.
"Danzo!!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned red with anger.
I clearly asked the other party to restrain himself and not to rush to recruit new personnel for the Root, but I didn't expect that he would not listen and even become more aggressive.
Hearing this name, all the Anbu around lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the lion-like Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Have the other party come here to see me immediately!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen gave orders to the Anbu around him.
He knew that he had to give an "explanation" to the ninja clan leaders around him and could not try to smooth things over like he did last time, otherwise he would become "tape".
But he couldn't really remove Danzo from his position as the leader of the Root for this reason.
After all, the village is now secretly promoting that experiment, but it still needs the other party to "host" it.
Once the other party is not the leader, then you will become the 'host'.
Headache!
Sarutobi Hiruzen really regretted it at this time.
If the other party had been strictly confined, this kind of thing might not have happened.
At this moment, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu also arrived.
After notifying Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Anbu would naturally notify the two of them.
Looking at the ninja clan leaders gathered here, the two looked at each other and knew that the situation was a bit tricky.
But before they could say anything, someone else arrived.
"Hey, why didn't you notify me of the meeting? After all, I am the commander-in-chief of the Southwestern Ninja Army, right?"
Dou Ping walked over slowly with Hinata Sogetsu and Honglian.
The reason I came late was naturally because I walked slowly and was not in a hurry.
Yes, these are his plans.
Last night, the plan he discussed with Aburame Shiwei was to deliberately "lure the snake out of its hole" and then solve the troubles of the Aburame clan at one time.
Now that the show has begun, how could he not watch the fun from a close distance?
Everything is under control!
He even knew the situation of the Aburame tribe members clearly.
With Hinata Cangyue in hand, it’s like having a full-map cheat, and there’s no need to worry about any accidents.
That's right!
Now, those members of the Aburame tribe who have been "recruited" to the root have been subjected to the "technique of eradicating the evil of the tongue", "technique of binding one's own karma" and so on.
After these curses were cast, even if the Aburame were brought back, they would have turned into the shape of roots and could never go back.
That's normal!
However, Tang Ping naturally had a backup plan, so he dared to take such a risky move. If it were someone else, he might have been in big trouble.
But if we don't fight to the death, there is no way to solve the problem of the Aburame clan. Now, the plan is being implemented.
"Uchiha Dohei, what happens here has nothing to do with you!"
Mizuto Menen prepared to drive Dohei away first.
Although the Aburame clan has nothing to do with the other party, the other party is a variable, so the best way is to drive them away.
"Even if it has nothing to do with me, as a member of Konoha, don't I even have the right to watch?"
Tang Ping was not afraid at all because of the other party's identity as an advisory elder.
joke!
Do you really think that the evaluation of him being "rebellious" is false?
"Okay, let him stay here!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted his friend's next words.
The matter really has nothing to do with the other party, but the other party is also a member of Konoha, so he is naturally qualified to stay.
As for Honglian? .
Although it was her first time in Konoha, in fact, as the leader of the new generation of the castle tower, her identity was known to not only the F4 but also to all the major ninja clans, so no one said anything.
Given Tang Ping's status and position, bringing someone with him is really nothing.
To be honest, Sarutobi Hiruzen also covets Honglian.
After all, the other party not only has great talent and possesses the bloodline limit of 'Crystal Escape', but also has the combat power of an elite jonin level at a young age.
If there was a chance, he would naturally want to pull people into Konoha.
It’s a pity that I never had the opportunity before.
Now that he has come to Konoha, he is planning to find an opportunity to have him receive the baptism of the "Will of Fire". How could he possibly target her?
Not long after, Danzo arrived, surrounded by several Root ninjas.
"Hiruzen, what do you want from me?"
His tone was natural, without any trace of guilt or remorse.
It has been mentioned before.
In Danzo's mind, as long as it's for Konoha, everyone can be sacrificed, including his own Shimura clan. Now he is just asking the Aburame clan to "sacrifice", so there is nothing to feel guilty about.
Everything he did was just to 'make Konoha great again'.
"Danzo, you actually asked me why I wanted to see you!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed in anger.
He had caused himself such a big trouble, but the other party still had this attitude. How could he not be angry?
"Isn't it just about letting the Aburame clan 'join' the Root? What's this?"
Danzo looked very confident, as if the Aburame clan had joined voluntarily rather than being forced by him.
"Now, hand him over immediately!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen gave the order decisively.
With so many ninjas watching, he, as the Hokage, could only do his job impartially.
"No problem, except that they have all joined the Root now!"
Danzo nodded indifferently.
Anyway, the people have already turned into the shape of the roots, so even if they are handed over temporarily, what difference does it make? There will be plenty of ways to make the Aburame clan "actively" integrate into the roots in the future.
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his scalp tingle and he stared at Danzo with a murderous look.
late!
I didn't expect Danzo to act so quickly this time.
Joining the roots is not just a verbal act, but will impose a series of spells.
These curse seals were compiled and researched by Uzumaki Mito and his teacher, so you can imagine how difficult it is to remove them.
In other words, even if the person comes back, the roots will have plenty of ways to take him away in the future.
"Hokage-sama, since my clan members have already joined the Root, why not let me, the clan leader, join as well? That way, at least the whole clan can be together!"
Aburame Shiwei on the side smiled miserably and spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen sadly.
Of course, he didn't really want to join the Root, he just used this as a way to accuse Danzo.
Yes!
As a clan leader, all his clan members had been "recruited" by the Root, and he was the only one left. This pain was more painful than death.
pain!
It hurts so much!
Everyone could feel the pain that Aburame Shiwei was feeling at that moment.
