Chapter 203: Used as A Gun
When Aoba was holding a big gourd and competing with it, he saw Gekkou Hayate sneaking in.
"Come in with me. I got something good!"
Seeing this guy's mysterious appearance, Aoba was also a little curious, so he put down the big gourd used for training and followed him into the room.
However, when he saw the thing that Gekkou Hayate carefully took out from his chest, he was immediately speechless!
"This is -"
"Hehe, you must be ignorant. This is the most popular one recently. It is said that it was adapted based on the real world, and it is especially beautiful! Unfortunately, it was banned not long ago. It took me a lot of effort to get this Chronicles of Dirty Ninja Dan Shou! Do you want to read it? I can lend it to you after I finish reading it!"
….Uhh
How should I tell him that this book was actually written by me, and it was also discrediting Danzo?
"Where did you get this thing? Didn't you say that it has been banned? Aren't you afraid of being punished?" Regarding these questions, he was indeed very curious.
"Shh, be quiet! Although it is forbidden to print and sell this book, there are still many black workshops that are making profits from it. There are even people who copy it and sell it. It is very popular! As for the punishment, hey! So many people are spreading it privately. The Hokage-sama will not really arrest everyone just because of such a small matter."
Aoba couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
It seemed that he no longer needed to worry about the follow-up developments. Of course, this was all thanks to Danzo's divine assistance.
If this guy hadn't suddenly jumped out and forcefully sealed the book with lightning methods and even shouted that he wanted to punish the public, it wouldn't have aroused the rebellious mentality of so many people.
Moreover, once the scale of public opinion was formed, it wouldn't be so easy to eliminate.
The best way was to deal with it coldly.
However, the result of Danzo pouring a bucket of gasoline on this fire could be imagined!
More importantly, it was still Sarutobi who had the final say in the end.
As long as Sarutobi sat in the position of Hokage for a day, Danzo would not be able to do things according to his own ideas.
Therefore, even if Danzo wanted to use bloody and cruel methods to suppress public opinion, he had to ask Sarutobi if he would agree!
Then, he heard Gekkou Hayate come over and whisper, "In addition, you may not know, but now many Ninjas are reading this book. There are even some Jonin among them!"
"Huh? How could this be?"
"I'm not too sure, but I heard that the Hokage also read it and praised that it was written well."
Aoba was instantly stunned!
However, he immediately reacted. If such a thing really happened, then it must have been Sarutobi who took the initiative to let people spread it.
It was not difficult to guess his purpose. He used him as a gun!
Although Sarutobi had always tolerated Danzo's radical methods, and no matter how unforgivable the sin Danzo committed, he would let it go easily.
But this did not mean that Sarutobi agreed with Danzo's idea!
Or, in Sarutobi's opinion, Konoha needed a dark side like Danzo, but he absolutely could not let the dark side completely envelop Konoha!
Therefore, he could give Danzo a certain amount of right to let him use his authority.
But he would never allow Danzo to take the position of Hokage!
This was Sarutobi's bottom line!
Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to leave the mountain after Minato died and completely blocked Danzo's ambitions.
Therefore, although this incident seemed to be a bit ridiculous, it gave Sarutobi a chance to make a fuss.
A person with a bad reputation still wants to be the Hokage?
Go and ask the people if they agree!
And Danzo, who has a bad reputation and will never be able to realize his ambitions, is the most needed help for Sarutobi!
Or, the worse Danzo's reputation is, the more assured he is when he uses it.
Therefore, when Aoba made a big deal out of this matter, Sarutobi would take advantage of the situation and put in more effort.
When all of Konoha's villagers and even all the Ninjas had a natural rejection of Danzo, it would absolutely be even harder for Danzo to become the Hokage.
At that time, Sarutobi would be able to smoothly hand over the position of Hokage to other qualified people.
None of these old foxes were simple!
Because Aoba had a God's perspective, he was more far-sighted than the others and understood Sarutobi's intention.
Otherwise, he might really think that he was too important, so important that Sarutobi would tolerate him secretly discrediting Konoha's higher-ups. Not only did he not pursue his responsibility, but he also blocked the pressure and threat of Danzo for him.
Reality proved that he was still too naive!
The reason why Sarutobi did not pursue the matter and let him do it was completely because the final result of this matter was in line with his needs.
Why don't you try to use the same method to discredit the other two high-level consultants?
If you do this, Anbu's people will invite you to drink tea, and you might have to drink this tea for ten or twenty years.
Aoba's face suddenly became a little ugly.
"What happened to you? Are you uncomfortable?" When Gekkou Hayate saw that Aoba suddenly stopped talking, his expression became a little ugly, and he couldn't help but think to himself.
Aoba took a deep breath, and a smile appeared on his face again. "It's nothing. I'm a little tired from training. I'm going out to take a walk."
"Oh, then you go. I want to stay at home to read." Gekkou Hayate proudly shook his hand and was already a little impatient.
Aoba nodded with a smile and then left Gekkou's house.
Although the mission completion notification had yet to ring out, he was no longer worried.
Since Sarutobi was secretly adding fuel to the fire, it was only a matter of time before Danzo's reputation was ruined.
Let the child fly for a while first.
Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Naruto for a while. He originally wanted to wait for Akatsuki's people to kill Danzo before going to look for Naruto.
But now that he had Anbu's people by his side, he didn't have to worry that Danzo would become angry from embarrassment and harm him.
In addition, after the vacation ended, he would formally propose to Mikawa-sensei to go to the border battlefield to hone himself and accumulate prestige.
If Mikawa-sensei disagreed, he and Itachi would directly participate in Gennin's exam and then take the initiative to transfer to the front line.
This also meant that before the end of this war, he would not return to the village for a long time.
However, if there were no variables, this war had actually come to an end. At most, it would completely end next year.
Moreover, at this time, Kumogakure had already exhausted most of their spirit in the long-term tug-of-war.
Joining the battle at this time was relatively safer and easier to get battle credits.
Aoba had already calculated all of this.
Even if he couldn't directly be a Hokage like Minato, he had to get a resounding title, at least!
Therefore, he went straight to Naruto's house.
