Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 358: Preliminary Screening

Chapter 358: Preliminary Screening

With him entering the reference room again after five days, Kanp was inevitably criticized and educated by Dove and the others. In desperation, he had no choice but to show the imposing-manner of Gekko Clans Young Clan Head and promised to invite them to Gekko Tavern after the mission. Only after this that they dropped this matter.

At this time, there are still seven days left before the end of the election registration!

As time goes by, the time left for Kanps group of five is getting less and less. In the last two days, they had to create shadow clone to work together, and finally in the found all the Shinobi logs until Konohas Year 16 that is associated with Orochimaru at the last day!

It was night, and Kanp honored his promise and invited Doves group of four to go to the Gekko Tavern to eat and drink, but the news was accidentally leaked Crow also came with the other four members to eat and drink.

On this night, Danzo, who went to the Land of Rain to get Rinnegan, came back alone.

When he went there, he brings a lot of people majestically. But when he came back, he was alone. At this time, Danzos one eye was full of gloom and resentment.

It must be known that the Roots Shinobi he brought with him were all Roots elites, who had been nurtured by him over the years, but he didnt expect to lose them all in the Land of Rain.

After returning to Roots Headquarters, Roots Shinobi naturally appeared before him and reported all kinds of information these days one by one. After listening to all of this, Danzo waved someone to call Orochimaru.

In the middle of the night, a snake swam into the sewer, opened its mouth, and spit out Orochimaru.

Orochimaru calmly wiped off the mucus on his body, and his golden vertical pupil shone slightly: It seems that the operation has failed.

Danzo nodded gloomily: The horror of the Rinnegan is beyond your and my imagination. The Roots Shinobi that I brought and hundreds of Amegakures Shinobi have all died under the Rinnegan of Akatsukis Nagato.

The situation here is also not optimistic.

Although Orochimaru often takes Anko to travel around the Shinobi World, he has been staying behind in Konoha recently.

What happened? Danzo asked.

Sensei appointed Nara Shikaku as the Jonin Commander. Orochimaru said.

What? Danzos complexion changed slightly upon hearing this.

Nara Clan is originally Sandaimes faction. At this critical time, Hiruzen actually appointed Shikaku as the Jonin Commander, so the meaning is self-evident!

Danzo squinted his one eye, wondering if he could use some means to cancel Shikakus appointment as Jonin Commander.

But after thinking about it for a while, Danzo shook his head helplessly.

In this Shinobi World War, Shikaku led the Konohas Shinobi Army against the Iwagakures Shinobi Army for nearly two years. With a lot of wit and outstanding combat exploits, it is actually reasonable for him to be appointed as Jonin Commander!

Moreover, the Nara Clan that Shikaku belongs to, has a huge influence in Konoha, almost monopolizing the entire medical industry of Konoha, and also has a very close relationship with the Akimichi Clan and Yamanaka Clan. With Shikaku becoming the Jonin Commander, the other two clans also obtained great benefits. So if Danzo jumps out to make trouble, these three clans will definitely stop him!

In this way, in addition to Hiruzen, me, Koharu, Homura, theres also Nara Shikaku among Konohas higher-ups

Danzo said with a dark face, Hiruzen And Nara Shikakus vote will definitely not be given to you It seems that I am going to fight for Koharu and Homura.

And Land of Fires Daimyo.

Orochimaru said gloomily, As long as he is convinced, his ministers will also be on our side.

Danzo shook his head: That fellow Daimyo is just a tag-a-long, who would stand on the same side who has the upper hand. So as long as I win the support of Koharu and Homura, Daimyo will definitely stand on our side!

Then, Ill trouble you. Orochimaru drooped his eyelids.

How was that experiment? Danzo stared at Orochimaru with his one eye, and theres a bit of expectation in his eye.

There is no progress yet. Orochimaru said with a smile.

Danzos eye narrowed, and he frowned and said: Whats going on? With your ability, how can it be possible that there has been no progress after so long?

Because there is no time.

Orochimaru gave a bright smile, I have been running around the Shinobi World with my student these days.

Danzo didnt believe it: Dont fool me with such stupid words!

Well, in fact, I have been studying the Body Revival Technique in this period of time. Orochimaru shrugged.

Since the deal with Kanp to obtain a streamlined and revised version of the Body Revival Technique, Orochimaru has put most of his attention on it. Not only to correct mistakes, eliminating bad information, and restore the disordered order, but also combine these contents with his own actual situation to develop his own Body Revival Technique. And right now, he has completed most of it, and in three months at most, he would be able to complete it!

As for the experiment Danzo mentioned, it can only be postponed.

After listening to Orochimarus explanation, Danzo was very angry.

Your Body Revival Technique is important, but my Wood Release is not important?!

Bastard!

Danzo took two deep breaths before slowly suppressing his unhappiness.

Orochimaru seemed to see this and smiled indifferently: Dont be angry, isnt Kinoe growing up very well? As long as he is still there, you will definitely get Wood Release.

Danzo and Orochimaru secretly captured a group of kids many years ago and transplanted Hashiramas cells on them. After many years, only one of them survived, the one called Kinoe, and this Kinoe naturally acquired the legendary Wood Release!

Afterwards, Orochimaru believed that it was too risky to directly transplant Hashiramas cells to inherit Wood Release, and it was better to transplant Kinoes cells to inherit Wood Release from Kinoe!

At that time, this suggestion from Orochimaru surprised Danzo!

However, Kinoes Wood Releases power is only 20% of Shodaime Hokages. If its Kinoes cells that are transplanted, it is almost impossible for him to inherit Wood Release. Even if it is possible, it is estimated that the power will only be 20% of Kinoes. How much is that compared to Shodaime Hokages Wood Release?

Of course Danzo cant stand it!

So under his order, Orochimaru extracted Kinoes cells in an attempt to increase the Wood Release content in Kinoes cells, but unfortunately, he obtained the Body Revival Technique halfway through the experiment.

For the vast majority of people, the value of Wood Release is obviously higher than the Body Revival Technique, but for Orochimaru, it is just the opposite. Because of that, he put the Wood Release experiment to the side and invested his time on the Body Revival Technique!

I hope its as you said. Danzo said with a snort.

Orochimaru didnt care about it. Seeing that the conversation was almost done, he left with a smile.

Early the next morning.

Hokage Tower.

Small conference room.

Hiruzen, Danzo, Koharu, Homura, and the newly appointed Jonin Commander, Nara Shikaku,gathered together.

In front of the five peoples desks, there is stack of information on each of them. These are all the information about the Jonin, who are running for the election, that Anbu has collected from various sources. Of course, it has been summarized.

Shikaku leaned on the conference table with one hand, lazily looking at the information.

To be honest, he really doesnt want to be the Jonin Commander, but its a pity that Hiruzaru Sarutobi is so troublesome and unreasonable

Haah!

There were seven candidates for the Yondaime Hokages position, but after the preliminary screening, three of them are unqualified.

Hiruzen said straight to the point, Everyone, if you have different opinions, you can speak up.

Danzo glanced at the three people that are eliminated. Since Orochimaru is not among them, he didnt say more.

Koharu, Homura, and Shikaku also have no complaints after reading the information.

Since everyone has no opinion, then we will go to Daimyo Mansion tomorrow to conduct higher-ups joint screening! Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

Is it necessary to be in such a hurry? Danzo frowned. He still has to persuade Koharu and Homura to stand on his side, so if they leave tomorrow, he would be running out of time!

Lets do it quickly.

Hiruzen glanced at Danzo and said, Of course, if you have something to do, you can go later. We will wait for you at the Daimyo Mansion.

Danzos mouth muscles twitched slightly when he heard this: No need, Ill go with you.

Then, its decided!
