Naruto: All I want to do after transforming into Akali is be happy!

Chapter 60 Verifying Bloodline

As they spoke, the Third Hokage and Danzo exchanged a glance.

Seeing the probing look in the Third Hokage's eyes, Danzo's expression hardened: "You're spying on me!"

Although he had some idea when he saw the Third Generation here, he was still very unhappy that it was confirmed.

"Hey!" The Third Hokage waved his hand, as if waving away the smoke in front of his eyes: "What do you mean by surveillance? That sounds awful."

"I just heard that you've come out of the Root Base after a long absence, so I came to check on an old friend!"

"As for Akali, that was just a coincidence..."

"You know, Danzo, what I care about most is the next generation of the village!"

The third generation said with great emotion, "Every time I see them, I am reminded of the days when we plotted to skip class and ended up being scolded by the second generation teacher."

"Those memories seem like they happened just yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, we've reached this age."

"This time of day..."

Memories flashed in the eyes of the third generation.

Seeing him like this, Danzo couldn't help but recall the past, and his cold expression softened.

Of course, things have eased, but only a little.

Because talking about the past is just that the three generations don't want to make the situation too tense.

He cares most about the next generation: I'm watching these people, don't even think about touching them.

At our age: You're getting old too, so don't be so greedy.

How could he not know these subtexts from the third generation?

"Hmph!" Danzo sneered inwardly.

The Third Hokage may be old, but he's not old at all thanks to his Wood Release!

Thinking of this, Danzo's face showed a hint of aggression: "Stop with the beating around the bush, Hiruzen. We've all known each other for so long, let's get straight to the point!"

"I've got my eye on Akali, what do you say?"

"Danzo, you..."

Looking at Danzo, the Third Hokage's face showed a hint of astonishment, completely not expecting Danzo to be so direct!

After all, people of their power pursue a certain level of dignity.

However, if it's Danzo, then even the Third Hokage can't do anything about it.

With a wave of his hand, the surrounding spies were dismissed. The Third Hokage took a deep drag of his cigarette and organized his thoughts:

“Akali is an indispensable genius for the village, and I have plans for her!”

"So you're handing over a genius whose main fighting style is ninjutsu to a genjutsu jonin?"

Danzo retorted sarcastically, "This is what you arranged?"

"This..." The third generation was momentarily speechless.

This kind of thing is really hard to explain no matter how you look at it; it's like deliberately burying a talented person.

However, he had a plan for Akali; he wasn't deliberately hiding her, but rather making a choice that suited his own interests. It's just that he couldn't say these things out loud.

Fortunately, after years of manipulating power, it's too easy for the third generation to shirk responsibility or change their rhetoric!

"How can this not be an arrangement?"

The third generation put on a self-assured expression: "I handed Akali over to Red based on a comprehensive consideration of the team, compatibility, and other factors."

"Furthermore, with Red's subordinates learning for a period of time, Akali's illusion magic weakness can be addressed, as for future strength improvements..."

"As the Hokage, is it alright for me to step in and guide the future generation of the village?"

"You..." This time, Danzo was speechless.

To reiterate, the Third Hokage was the Hokage, and as Hokage, his personal interests overlapped with those of the village to some extent.

So even if he says with righteous indignation that this is how he arranged things, and that he wants to use this to subdue Akali, no one can say anything!

Being loyal to the Hokage is also being loyal to the village.

However, Danzo was not without a way to fight back.

Without any instruction, Danzo revealed a sinister smile and said in a chilling tone:

"There is no problem with providing guidance. It is Akali's good fortune that the renowned ninjutsu professor has condescended to instruct her."

"But unfortunately, Hiruzen, Akali probably doesn't need your instruction!"

"Because just now, she agreed to my terms and sold herself for a good price!"

Danzo unleashed his ultimate attack on the Third Hokage.

Akali's agreement is the biggest reason why he dared to directly confront her this time!

After all, what could be more direct than the will of the person themselves?

"What?" The Third Hokage was indeed shocked upon hearing Danzo's words.

He never expected Danzo to act so quickly!

Danzo has been very quiet since he started building Akali's reputation. He thought everything was fine, but now it seems he was still negligent?

The third generation leader asked with a grim expression, "What conditions did you offer?"

"Haha, it's nothing, just three times the treatment of the Anbu, and a Flying Thunder God Technique!"

"That's it?" The Third Hokage's expression changed again.

Because in Akali's eyes, such conditions might be acceptable, but in the eyes of those in the upper echelons, they were just so-so.

After all, the Flying Thunder God technique is quite common. During the fourth generation, he tried to teach many people how to use it, but none of them learned it.

So, Danzo really got lucky this time!

It's like some young women who have just entered society and haven't seen or experienced anything, so they can be easily tricked out of anything.

This was his oversight, his mistake!

The third generation's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.

Danzo, however, found pleasure in watching the Third Hokage's ugly expression.

This feeling was a million times better than even a high climax! He was practically digging his fingers into his temples!

Danzo then continued to be defiant: "What, is there a problem?"

"Three times the treatment of the Anbu and the Flying Thunder God Technique, isn't that better than some people's arrangements?"

"A wise bird chooses its tree to roost in; ultimately, that's perfectly normal, isn't it?"

"Hmph!" The Third Hokage snorted coldly, his sharp, hawk-like gaze fixed on Danzo's single eye.

Danzo stared at the Third Hokage without any fear.

When we were young, we were so close that we'd even look at each other before we peed. Who was afraid of who?

Seeing that he couldn't intimidate Danzo, the Third Hokage said angrily, "Danzo, I've already told you, I have plans for Akali!"

“You do have a plan, but if the Hokage’s plan is wrong, then as the Hokage’s assistant, I am also qualified to correct it. That is my right.”

Danzo smiled slightly: "What, is there a problem?"

Of course, no problem.

From an external perspective, Danzo's position as Hokage's assistant was revoked, but internally his power and status were never affected.

However, even if someone assists the Hokage, they are still not the Hokage, are they?

and so……

"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

"Crack!" In an instant, Danzo crushed the cane he was leaning on with his left hand!

After all, the Hokage was Danzo's Achilles' heel, and the Third Hokage specifically brought it up at this time.

Danzo's face was more grim than ever before!
