Chapter 157: The Further Away from This Devil, the Better!
When Sarutobi received the specific details of the mission, Danzo naturally received the news as well.
"Dead... That saves us the trouble."
"Inform everyone that the original plan can be canceled. Let them come back." Danzo casually put down the information.
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"
The Root member kneeling on one knee in front of Danzo disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The name Shinomiya Aoba was not unfamiliar to Danzo. After all, he had heard of everything the other party had done.
Although he had little desire to recruit the other party as his subordinate, with the warning of Minato and Sarutobi, he gave up after weighing the pros and cons.
In comparison, he still admired the super genius of Uchiha's family more.
Unfortunately, Uchiha's family had always been regarded as an unstable bomb by him.
If not for Sarutobi being too indecisive, according to his thoughts, he would have long eliminated this 'cancer'.
As for the short period of time when Minato was appointed, he was even more unable to make a move.
However, the heavens were still very kind to him, allowing him to pin such huge blame on Uchiha after Minato died, so much so that even Sarutobi, who had never wanted to touch Uchiha's clan, acquiesced in his way of moving Uchiha's station to the edge of the village.
As long as it did not involve the safety and stability of the village, Sarutobi would usually turn a blind eye to it.
However, ever since the invasion of Kyuubi and the uncertain conclusion that Sharingan might control Kyuubi, even if Sarutobi wanted to maintain the stability on the surface of the village, he would definitely be wary of the Uchiha clan!
As for whether Kyuubi had been tampered with by Uchiha or not….
Was it still important?
It was the same this time. After discovering that Shinomiya Aoba had taken the initiative to come into contact with Jinchuriki, all of Konoha's higher-ups' sensitive nerves were directly touched.
It was a pity that Sarutobi was still not decisive enough!
He actually came up with an emergency mission to keep the other party away from Jinchuriki. At the same time, he also released this signal, making sure Danzo would not dare to act rashly.
Otherwise, according to his method, he would have already sent people to eliminate this unstable factor!
Therefore, he was already prepared. If that Shinomiya Aoba still had close contact with Jinchuriki after he returned, then the team hidden in the dark would 'kill first and play later'.
At that time, would Sarutobi still pursue his responsibility for a dead person?
In the worst-case scenario, he would just push the few fellows who attacked out as scapegoats.
The order I gave?
No, no, no, all of this was the result of them acting on their own!
Shameless?
Hehe, as long as we can achieve our goal, the most correct way is to use unscrupulous means!
Even if the assassination failed, it's nothing. Do you know what the most direct warning is?
If you don't want to die, stay away!
However, before he could do anything, this little brat had already died in the mission, which saved him a lot of trouble.
What made Danzo feel even more sarcastic was that Sarutobi clearly wanted to use this method to protect the little ghost, but he did not expect it to become the little ghost's death, in the end, doing what he wanted to do in advance.
How ironic!
At this time, Sarutobi should be very regretful.
In the dim environment, Danzo suddenly laughed.
......
As the days passed, Shinomiya Aoba was still nowhere to be seen.
Apart from Mikawa's class, who would come every day to ask about the latest progress, Konoha was still the same Konoha. There would not be any changes because there was an insignificant person missing.
At this time, not many people felt that Aoba might still be alive.
It was only because of Itachi's insistence that he was not directly included in the list of casualties.
But some rumors still spread to some people, such as Guy, who admired Aoba very much, and Anko, who had suffered a great loss in the graduation exam of the ninja school...
They all felt particularly sorry for Aoba's death.
It also confirmed from the side that not letting this group of people go to the battlefield was really for their own good.
After all, no one dared to guarantee which accident would come first and which one would come tomorrow.
Especially when the war with Kumogakure was in full swing!
….
But just when almost everyone thought he was dead, after so many days, Aoba finally saw Konoha's door with the scarred man and other drag!
"Phew... I'm finally back!"
Although he was travel-worn, Aoba, who looked pretty good, looked at Konoha's door and said emotionally.
When the scar-faced man and his group finally sent the devil to his destination, they were really moved to tears. They hugged each other and cheered that they could finally get out of the sea of bitterness created by Aoba!
After seeing this scene, Aoba, who was in a good mood, pretended not to see it.
So he decided to reward them well when he returned to Konoha.
"Let's go. I'll treat you guys to a good meal!"
In all honesty, he was speaking from the bottom of his heart!
However, along the way, when the scar-faced man and his group heard the words 'eat a good meal', they immediately trembled and wailed, "I beg you to be magnanimous! We really can't afford this good meal. Anyway, Konoha is right in front of us, and our mission has been completed. Please let us go!"
Why would they be so scared after having a good meal?
Wasn't it because every time Aoba said this, they had to work hard to earn money? Otherwise, what would they use to eat?
And every time, this guy would pretend to be polite and let them eat together...
Would they dare?
Even if they dare, can they win over you?
So they were really afraid. Eating a good meal was equivalent to their bitter days starting!
Even if it were for just eating a good meal, they would not believe it!
They just wanted to stay as far away from this devil as possible!
