"Danzo, what kind of backup did you leave behind in the roots? The roots you controlled before are now clearly out of Konoha's control, but you still provide such important information to Konoha. It's really puzzling."

The third generation looked at the encrypted information in his hand and felt extremely puzzled.

In recent days, because he was worried that Roots would do something harmful to Konoha, such as creating some rumors that would shake the hearts of Konoha, he had been secretly sending a large number of ANBU ninjas to find traces of Roots, but he had gained very little.

After Danzo's death, the Roots abandoned Konoha and a large number of strongholds around Konoha, and withdrew all core members, leaving only some peripheral members who could not access the core secrets.

Root's behavior like this is undoubtedly announcing that Root is going to break away from Konoha's control, and then take revenge on Konoha.

Unexpectedly, Nebu's current behavior does not seem to be an enemy of Konoha at all, but he intends to continue to provide services to Konoha.

What exactly does this mean?

Does this mean that you don't want to be controlled by Konoha but want to continue serving Konoha?

Or do you hope that he, the Third Hokage, will not continue to interfere in the affairs of the Roots and ignore the current situation of the Roots, and let the Roots continue to be outside the system of Konoha. As a deal, the Roots will continue to serve him and Konoha.

The Third Generation did not dislike Genbe's current approach of clearly pleasing Konoha, but in his heart he still did not want an intelligence organization with a terrifying and dark nature that knew Konoha very well to lose control.

Because this is a time bomb, there is no guarantee that it will suddenly explode one day, blowing Konoha, him, and the Sarutobi clan into the sky.

When he thought that Nebe had a large amount of Konoha's confidential information in his hands, which could be leaked to Konoha's enemies at any time, it was impossible for the third generation to ignore Nebe's existence.

In his current mind, if the roots are out of control, then they must be uprooted and destroyed.

He wants all secrets to be buried in darkness, never to be seen again.

Even if these secrets will be revealed one day, it will have to wait until the war between Konoha and Sunagakure is over.

"Here comes someone."

Sandai pondered for a moment and then he spoke.

An ANBU ninja suddenly appeared after hearing the sound. He knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "Sandaime-sama, please give me your instructions."

"Go and ask Akimichi Qifeng, the leader of the Akimichi clan, to come over."

The third generation issued the order.

The ANBU ninja immediately obeyed the order: "Ha~"

As soon as he finished speaking, he used the magic of teleportation and disappeared before the eyes of the third generation.

"What on earth does that dwarf Iwagakure want to do? He should be busy dealing with Kumogakure right now."

Sandai burned the information in his hand with a candle and thought to himself.

In any case, the information sent by Genbu now is very important. Even if he loses control of Gen now and has difficulty identifying the authenticity, he must pay attention to it.

Judging from the intelligence content, Iwagakure intends to ease the relationship with Sunagakure.

Akasa is the son of the first Kazekage and Chiyoko, and has a distinguished status in Sunagakure Village.

Iwagakure uses this as a bargaining chip, and is likely to exchange certain benefits from Sunagakure, such as reaching some agreements.

Although the conflict between Iwagakure and Sunagakure is greater than that between Konoha and Sunagakure, there is no guarantee that the two will reach an agreement and then join forces to deal with Konoha.

The Third Generation has not been the Hokage for nothing these years. He has long understood in his heart that there is no eternal and absolute hatred between the Ninja Village and the Ninja Village. As long as the interests and threats are great enough, they can temporarily put aside their hatred and join forces to deal with the enemy together.

The current situation in Konoha is obviously very bad. What happened not long ago has been leaked, and the impact of Danzo's death is continuing to ferment.

As the saying goes, the people who know you best are often your enemies.

Obviously, other great ninja villages now see Konoha's current weakness and want to take advantage of it.

If this information is true, then that dwarf Iwagakure must be plotting against Konoha.

In order to prevent Iwagakure from secretly joining forces with Sunagakure to deal with Konoha, the Third Generation needed to mobilize some of his troops to deploy defenses at the border on Iwagakure's side, and he also needed to know that the general Akimichi Tofuu should go over and intimidate Iwagakure.

Tou Feng is his old classmate and comrade-in-arms. His personal strength is very strong. After taking the secret medicine of the Akimichi clan, he can burst into the strength of a shadow-level powerhouse in a short time. He also has rich combat experience. He is stationed at the border on the Iwagakure side.

, he can rest assured.

"Sigh~, it's really unwise to have internal strife now. Can't we defeat Sunagakure and then start the internal strife?"

The third generation is extremely tired of the current situation in Konoha.

For a time, his dissatisfaction with Danzo and the Senju clan came to mind again.

However, Danzo is dead, and all his dissatisfaction can only be attributed to the Senju clan.

To be honest, if he hadn't been worried that attacking the Senju clan now would further intensify the conflicts within Konoha and greatly consume Konoha's power, he would have wanted to use the power of the Hokage to punish the Senju clan.

After all, since the beginning of World War II, for the sake of the teacher and Tsunade, he has not recruited a large number of ninjas from the Senju clan for a long time to support the front line.

It is reasonable for him to ask the ninjas of the Senju clan to support the front line now, and others can't find anything wrong with him.

"There are abnormal movements in Iwagakure. I think Kumogakure and Kirigakure will definitely take some actions. I hope the compatriots over there can send some useful information in time. But for this plan, Konoha and Sunagakure's

The war must be ended as soon as possible, otherwise Konoha, no matter how strong it is, cannot withstand the siege of multiple powerful enemies at the same time."

The third generation forced down his dissatisfaction with the Senju clan and once again became worried about the current situation in Konoha.

For now, nothing can deter the powerful enemies with bad intentions around them more than defeating Sunagakure.

However, how to defeat Sunagakure is not an easy task.

Soon, the third generation made a decision. The fastest way to defeat Sunagakure is to find out the source of unknown funds that Sunagakure has obtained recently.

If the source could be found and destroyed, then Sunagakure would no longer be able to continue the war.

He originally gave this task to Danzo, but now that Danzo is dead and the roots are out of control, he has no choice but to find another person to handle it.

The White Fang team currently in the Kingdom of Wind is undoubtedly a very good choice.

Because of Koharu's suggestion, he actually planned to let the White Fang team led by Hatake Sakumo come back, and then let Kirito, Chizuru and Naoki do other things. But now that the trends in other ninja villages have changed, he

I have no choice but to let this sharp blade penetrate into the enemy's more deadly place.

But in this case, the situation of the White Fang team will undoubtedly become more dangerous.

Once the mission fails, the entire White Fang team will likely be wiped out.

At this thought, the third generation couldn't help but show a trace of sadness on his face, and then gradually turned back to expressionless, sighing: "Oh~, I can't help it. I hope you can complete the mission smoothly and come back safely. All this is for Mu."

Ye"

...

A few days later, in the Land of Fire, at a supply depot on the edge of the battlefield between Konoha and Sunagakure, the White Fang team, which had almost run out of supplies, came here to resupply, and by the way, they handed over the trophies they had obtained in the recent period.

Use this to gain corresponding merit.

"Oh my god, you guys have destroyed Sunagakure's supply line."

A quartermaster in charge of logistics said with a shocked expression as he looked at the large number of storage-type psychic scrolls and the heads of more than a dozen Sunagakure jounin handed over by the White Fang team.

There were actually quite a few ninja teams responsible for cutting off Sunagakure's border, but there were only a handful of ninja teams that successfully snatched the psychic scrolls containing supplies from Sunagakure's hands. Like the White Fang team, they took out so many scrolls at once.

This was his first time meeting the ninja team of the Spirit Scroll.

"Hehehe, that's about it. With our White Fang team here, the supplies of those guys like Sunagakure can't be easily transported to the front line. Please quickly calculate how much merit these things are worth."

Seeing the shocked look on the quartermaster's face, Shengshu said proudly.

He already had a premonition from the quartermaster's expression that they would receive many, many meritorious deeds this time, and maybe even an S-class mission meritorious service would be recorded.

In Konoha, the merits of a ninja are calculated based on the five mission levels of SABCD. Among them, the S-level mission is the highest level of merit and the most difficult to obtain. Once obtained, it is a huge honor.

At the same time, these functions are also an important currency for ninjas to exchange for various precious items from Konoha.

An S-level mission meritorious service is enough to exchange for an S-level ninjutsu in the Sealed Book.

"Ahem, please take inventory as soon as possible, and then replenish us with enough ninja tools and medicines."

Hatake Sakumo coughed, motioned the rope tree not to go too far, and then said to the quartermaster with a smile.

"Yes, please wait a moment."

The quartermaster did not recognize the White Fang team and the others, but he recognized the weight of the pile of trophies in front of him and answered respectfully.

After a while, the quartermaster counted out the meritorious service obtained by the White Fang team during the recent period, including one S-level mission and five A-level missions.

"Awesome, now, I am also a ninja with S-level mission achievements, hahaha~"

After Naoshu learned that Team White Fang had achieved meritorious service, he immediately shouted excitedly.

He felt like he was now a big step closer to becoming Hokage.

The meritorious service of 1 S-level mission and 5 A-level missions is definitely a huge achievement. Among many Konoha ninjas, there are definitely not many people who can achieve so many meritorious achievements.

Although Kirito and Chizuru were not as excited as Naoki, they still showed happy expressions.

Because after they have achieved these achievements, they will have enough confidence to speak in front of other Konoha ninjas in the future, and their status in Konoha will also rise.

This is a very good start, and these achievements will be the best foundation for them to climb up in Konoha in the future.

Hatake Sakumo noticed the expressions of the three of them. He just smiled slightly, without any fluctuations in his heart. He had no feeling about the meritorious service he had achieved so far.

Since becoming a shadow-level powerhouse, he has received many S-level merits after completing S-level missions. If he had not been responsible for leading the team during this period, he might have been able to obtain more merits on the battlefield.

But it doesn't mean that he is no longer interested in meritorious deeds. He is now thinking about how much money he would have if these meritorious deeds were converted into money.
