At this time, Hiruzen suddenly thought of Minato, who had already gone to Mount Myoboku. It had been a long time since he last saw him.

There had been too many things that had happened during this period of time.

He had been busy dealing with all kinds of things and had almost forgotten about Minato.

"Right now, Minato is still in Mount Myoboku. I wonder what kind of strength he has now. It is time to call him back."

Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

He felt that Minato was a better choice than Orochimaru.

Now, there was already a Konoha White Fang in the front line. After this battle, he would definitely accumulate great merit and popularity.

He absolutely can not let Orochimaru go out.

Minato was young...

There was no threat.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen was absolutely sure that Minato was the best candidate. No one was more suitable than him.

"Hiruzen..."

Danzo took a deep look at Hiruzen, his eyes flashing with helplessness. After that, he shook his head and said, "Are you sure you want to play tricks at this time?"

"Danzo, what do you mean?" When Hiruzen heard Danzo's words, he was stunned for a moment. In fact, there were many things that he had not thought through clearly. He just felt that this was the best choice at the moment.

"Do you think that Minato is not a threat?" Danzo's single eye that was exposed on the outside stared at Hiruzen as if he had seen through all of Hiruzen's thoughts.

"En..." Hiruzen nodded without hesitation.

"You are wrong!" Danzo said lightly.

"Do you mean that Minato also needs to be on guard?" Hiruzen was stunned. He felt that this matter was already beyond his understanding. After all, Minato had only been gone for a few days. Could there be something special about Mount Myoboku that allowed Minato to surpass Konoha White Fang in a short period of time?

"I'm not saying that Minato is a big threat. I agree with your idea. That is, he does not have much influence. He is not a match for Konoha White Fang, Hatake Sakumo. But what you have to consider is to disperse Hatake Sakumo's power, not letting him continue to lead alone." Danzo said his reason.

"Danzo, I don't understand what you mean..." Hiruzen was confused. Before he could react, he had a feeling that he was about to be entangled by Danzo.

"Hu..."

Danzo took a deep breath. He felt that Hiruzen's way of thinking was very rigid and he did not know how to be flexible. Even if he thought of some ideas, they were not completed well.

For example, what he thought of now.

"If you think like that..."

Danzo slowly opened his mouth and began to correct Hiruzen's thoughts. After all, this is related to Konohagakure and their future rights.

"If you let Minato go to the front line, he almost won't have any effect. Even if his strength reaches Jonin's level, he is still just a Jonin."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

"Ninja war situation would not change with just one or two Jonin!"

"Moreover, Minato might not be able to improve much during this period of time."

"This way."

"If you recall Minato and let him go to the front line, not only will you not be able to change the war situation, but you will also let Konoha White Fang, Hatake Sakumo, continue to take the limelight!"

"This is a mistake in the decision-making!"

Danzo said one sentence after another. His current idea was not only to help Hiruzen keep the Hokage position but also some more important things, such as saving Konohagakure.

After all, this was a ninja war.

Whoever wins and loses.

Everything was hard to predict.

No one could rashly give an answer.

"I understand what you said. If we can send Orochimaru, would it be better?" Hiruzen frowned and said coldly. He had already seen that Danzo still wanted him to send Orochimaru to the front line. This made him have no choice but to doubt Danzo's purpose.

"Of course!"

Danzo immediately nodded, his eyes flashing with wisdom.

"Orochimaru is stronger than Minato. He is not a simple Jonin. You know more about his strength than I do!"

"It is because of Orochimaru's strong strength that he will achieve great results after joining the war. To a certain extent, it is more likely to change the situation than Minato."

"The most important thing is..."

"After the Second Ninja World War, Orochimaru has become very famous. He is one of the few ninjas in the village who can be compared to Konoha White Fang."

"One mountain can not have two tigers!"

"After Orochimaru joins the battle, he will inevitably disperse Konoha White Fang's ruling power."

"In this way..."

"Not only can we send Orochimaru to win the war, but he can also share Konoha White Fang's achievements on the battlefield so that they can restrict each other."

"Your Hokage position will be stabilized!"

Danzo analyzed it in an orderly manner. What he said was very beneficial to Hiruzen. He did not want any of the people between Hatake Sakumo and Orochimaru to take the Hokage position. He hoped that he would take the position.

"I understand what you mean."

Hiruzen nodded heavily. However, he did not immediately give a conclusion. Instead, he looked deeply at Danzo and said slowly, "I will consider your proposal."

Danzo narrowed his eyes and looked at Hiruzen.

Gradually.

He discovered something very important.

After he was injured this time, his power of speech had obviously decreased. In the past, whatever he said to Hiruzen, the latter would respect his opinion.

Now...

Obviously, Hiruzen did not trust him that much.

"I understand."

Danzo nodded and did not say anything more. He turned and left the office.

After that.

Only Hiruzen was left in the office.

"Minato?"

"Or Orochimaru?"

"At this critical juncture."

"Who should I trust?"

Hiruzen fell into hesitation. He had always been indecisive and did not have his own judgment in many things, or he did not have the time to make a judgment.

This kind of thing was often helped by Danzo.

But now, he felt that Danzo seemed to be selfish. What Danzo wanted to do was not like what he said.

...

Aoba lay on the bed in the Anbu dormitory, enjoying a leisurely time.

Looking at the whole ninja world.

Five Major Ninja Villages had already been implicated, and there were different levels of battles going on all over the place. It looked very intense, but there was not much pain.

Especially the people on Konohagakure's side.

They had not felt the pain yet.

How could this highlight Minato's power?

Aoba thought silently in his heart.

"Huh?"

All of a sudden.

Aoba thought of something.

He felt a strange fluctuation outside of Konohagakure.

This fluctuation was extremely weak.

If he hadn't been monitoring Konohagakure's movements and mobilizing all his perception abilities, he might not have been able to sense this little fluctuation at all.

"What is that thing?"

Aoba was slightly stunned for a moment. This was the first time he felt such an existence. It had life fluctuations, and he could feel that it was a living thing, but there was no chakra fluctuation at all.

One must know that this was the world of ninjas.

Even if it was an ordinary person.

There was chakra in their bodies.

As long as there was physical energy and spiritual energy, then there would be chakra.

However, many people did not have the qualifications to be a ninja, and could not use chakra to cast ninjutsu and so on.

"Let's go take a look."

Aoba vaguely guessed something in his heart. He moved his mind, wanting to prove his thoughts. After that, he immediately began to form hand seals.

Bang!

A shadow clone that looked exactly like him immediately appeared in Aoba's room.

"You stay here."

Aoba said to the shadow clone. The situation outside was a little special. He needed to face these things personally. This way, he would have more time to react and could do more things.

If he were to hand these over to a shadow clone, then he could only wait for a result.

If he had something more important to do, then giving it to the shadow clone would be okay.

But right now, he was just waiting.

Since that was the case, it would be better for him to personally make a trip.

Instantly.

With a thought, Aoba immediately executed Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique), communicating with the Flying Thunder God Formula that was closest to that location and disappeared in a flash.

Flip Flip Flip...

After Aoba's body reappeared, papers rolled up around him, directly changing his image and turning him into the appearance of Nagato years later.

It was the identity he had used before.

Uzumaki Nagato.

Aoba casually picked up a mask and put it on his face. This was double insurance for his identity. This could ensure that no accidents would happen.

When Aoba did these actions, he did not stop at all. He continued to dash in the direction of the fluctuation at a terrifying speed.

In the process of this action.

Aoba took advantage of Chokeijūgan no Jutsu(Ultralight-Weight Rock Technique) to reduce the weight of his body to a large extent to ensure that his body did not make any sound.

After he arrived at the location, Aoba's mind moved and his line of sight was fixed on a tree not far away.

It was indeed him!

Within Aoba's line of sight.

On the branch of the tree stood a black figure with golden eyes. He was staring at Konohagakure as if he was investigating the situation.

This person was Black Zetsu!

Aoba did not know why Black Zetsu stood outside Konohagakure and did not enter directly. Moreover, from his posture, it seemed that he was monitoring something.

At this moment.

Black Zetsu seemed to feel Aoba's gaze.

He immediately turned to look in Aoba's direction.

At this moment.

The two looked at each other.

They both saw each other's eyes.

"..."

Black Zetsu was speechless. He felt as if someone was looking at him just now. He instinctively looked in that direction, but there really was a person.

However, Black Zetsu only had one impression of that person.

Black eyes.

Nothing else could be seen clearly.

Without any hesitation, Black Zetsu immediately controlled his body and jumped onto the ground, ready to drill into the ground.

At the moment, he had not officially appeared in front of Madara.

Therefore, he could not borrow White Zetsu.

He could only use his own abilities.

But...

He had no abilities and only could run right now.

"Black Zetsu!"

Aoba bluntly called out Black Zetsu's name. After that, he leaped up and his speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Black Zetsu.

He had waited for Black Zetsu for a long time.

Now, they finally met.

Since that was the case.

Then it was impossible for him to let Black Zetsu escape.

There could only be one big boss behind the scenes in this world, and that was him, not Black Zetsu.

As long as there was no Black Zetsu to make trouble.

In that case, things at the back would all become simpler.

"???"

A lot of question marks appeared on Black Zetsu's head. He had no idea why this person could recognize him. Right now, he did not have a formal identity.

But he could not stop.

The more he was recognized.

The more dangerous it was.

He did not care about the gains and losses right now.

Ever since he was thrown out by his mother, he had been working hard to save his mother. Even he did not remember how much time had passed.

In other words...

He was already used to failure.

Even if he did not succeed this time, it did not matter. He just needed to find a place to hide and appear in the next era.

"You can't run away."

Aoba's faint voice suddenly sounded in Black Zetsu's ears. Following that, the earth trembled as if the ground here had collapsed.

Rumble...

The ground was shattered into pieces, and one could clearly see Black Zetsu who had just entered. Before he could escape, he was once again illuminated by the light.

In the middle of the crater.

Aoba still maintained the posture of clenching his fists.

Just now.

He used the Ultra-Added-Weight Rock Technique plus Chakra Enhance Strength and opened the ground with a punch, leaving Black Zetsu in a state of no hiding.

"Seal!"

Aoba said indifferently. Just as he finished speaking, black paper tags suddenly appeared in all of Black Zetsu's escape path.

"You... you... When did you leave the seal?"

Black Zetsu was stunned for a moment. After that, he no longer hesitated and quickly ran outside.

Only.

No matter how fast he was running, he would be able to run.

It couldn't be compared to the speed at which the seals were expanding.

Black lines instantly sealed the entire space, trapping Black Zetsu inside and preventing him from breaking out of the encirclement in a short period of time.

"What kind of seal is this?!"

Black Zetsu was stunned. In his impression, the only people who could use such a seal were Uzumaki Mito and some Uzumaki Clan.

But the Uzumaki Clan had already been exterminated!

How did such a terrifying sealing technique be released?

"I already said that you won't be able to escape."

Aoba took a step forward, seemingly crossing through space and directly arriving in front of Black Zetsu. After that, he raised his hand and directly grabbed Black Zetsu's head.
