I teach kendo in the ninja world

Konoha Village, Hokage Office.

The three of them, Hatake Sakumo and Hatake Sakumo, who were all in embarrassment, were half-kneeling on the ground. The Third Hokage was smoking his pipe gently. His expressions were hidden in the diffuse smoke, and even his tone was indistinguishable from joy to anger.

"Killed the three Nebes and eliminated the hidden danger. Killed the ANBU leader of Kirigakure, but exchanged his head for the captured Aburame Shiki, and triggered the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki's rampage?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama. In addition, although we failed to bring back each other's heads, we also learned some information about Kirigakure Village..." Hatake Sakumo hurriedly explained.

"Really? That's great. When you get back, write a detailed mission report and give it to me."

The Third Hokage interrupted him with a calm but unquestionable tone, "You all have injuries on your body. Go to the hospital for treatment first."

"...Yes, Hokage-sama."

Hatake Sakumo opened his mouth, but not a single word came out. He bowed his head and turned around to leave with his two teammates.

"Sarutobi, you are soft-hearted!"

A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind the bookshelf. A middle-aged man with a bandage on his face and a fork-shaped scar on his chin came out and accused him unceremoniously.

"You actually gave up the mission for a captured ninja. He should be left to me to deal with."

"Danzo," the Third Hokage sighed, "the shinobi world is currently in turmoil, and we need a Konoha White Fang."

"Humph, you are just too indecisive!"

Danzo snorted coldly, "Today he can give up his mission for Aburame Shiki, but who knows who he will give up his mission for tomorrow? How can a ninja perform a mission without sacrifice? Once his weakness is known to the enemy, then he will still The frightened White Fang of Konoha?"

Faced with Danzo's question, Sandai pondered for a while before reluctantly arguing: "In the future, we can also only send him to perform single-person missions..."

"Wake up, Sarutobi!"

Danzo shouted angrily, "Konoha already has a Tsunade who suffers from hemophobia. Do we need another White Fang who may give up the mission at any time? If this continues, sooner or later we will become the laughingstock of the ninja world. !”

"Then what do you want to do?"

The Third Hokage was speechless and asked.

"Leave him to me. The ninja is just a tool to perform tasks. I will erase the excess emotions in his heart and turn him into an emotionless task machine. Only in this way can he become the perfect [Konoha White Fang]!"

Danzo makes no secret of his greed and ambition.

"enough!"

The Third Hokage shouted angrily, "This is impossible. Sakumo's reputation in the village is too high. If he doesn't want to, I can't possibly hand him over to the roots. Do you think I don't know what you did in the roots?" Something?"

Faced with the third generation's questioning, Danzo was shocked, but on the surface he remained calm and even said with dignity:

"What did I do? Everything I did was for Konoha! Besides, since you are worried about his reputation being too high, we can naturally find ways to lower his reputation."

"Do you have any idea?"

"How about hyping up his failure this time?"

Danzo smiled coldly, "Since he cares so much about his teammates, let's let him be surrounded by contempt and abuse, especially when the partners he wants to save even if he gives up the mission also stand up and accuse him, how will he feel? It will definitely fall to the extreme, and even the belief may collapse. At this time, I will guide him to join the roots and re-forge him into the sharpest blade. This plan, I call it [Konoha White Fang Recasting Plan] ,how do you feel?"

One thing to say, when he heard this plan, the Third Hokage was indeed moved.

Because in his opinion, Hatake Sakumo made a huge mistake this time!

This is not because of the issue of how to choose between companions and missions, but because he used practical actions to tell Kirigakure's people, "As long as you capture Konoha White Fang's companions, you can threaten him to give up the mission!"

Who is Konoha White Fang?

During this period, he could be said to be Konoha's number one, even the Sannin were slightly inferior in terms of qualifications and intimidation!

Such a person should have been Konoha's trump card to deter foreign enemies, but after what happened, how could Sarutobi Hiruzen dare to entrust him with important tasks again?

What if his teammates were captured again?

He didn't believe that Kirigakure Village would be kind enough to help keep this secret.

As the saying goes, there are only zero and countless times to give up on a mission. From the moment Hatake Sakumo made his choice, he was no longer the invincible White Fang who guaranteed the mission completion rate in the heart of the Third Hokage. !

But no matter how many problems he has, after all, the strength that daunts the ninja world is still there. If such a good tool just gives up, the Third Hokage will be a little reluctant to let go.

Danzo is indeed his close comrade-in-arms, and this [Konoha White Fang Recasting Plan] really made the third generation’s eyes shine.

"How sure are you? Sakumo doesn't seem like the kind of weakling who cares about other people's words."

The Third Hokage asked cautiously.

"Hiruzhan, you made a mistake this time!"

Danzo noticed the compromise implicit in his old friend's words and couldn't help but feel proud, "No matter how determined a person is, there will always be a pillar in his heart. This pillar can be a person, an object, or even an idea. . And when this thing that has been supporting him is broken, is his collapse inevitable? And I have found the weakness of Konoha White Fang!"

"Really? I hope so..."

The Third Hokage took a deep drag on his cigarette, relaxed his body and leaned back on the chair.

"How are you preparing for the Earth Kingdom?"

"Don't worry, I'm doing this. I've sent [Miko] to Iwagakure Village to get information about the Jinchuriki. We tentatively plan to launch an attack when they hold the joint chuunin exam. By then, that old guy Onoki will most likely leave the village. Without him as a threat, the success rate of this trip will be close to [-]%!" Danzo was full of confidence.

"That's good. In the next period of time, Kirigakure Village is expected to launch a retaliatory action against us. I have already sent half of the Anbu to the eastern front, and the Roots will also need some help."

The Third Hokage instructed calmly.

"Speaking of Kirigakure Village, I have another idea."

A sinister smile appeared on Danzo's face.

"what idea?"

"We all know how cruel the blood mist policy of Kirigakure Village is. Many small and medium-sized families have actually wanted to leave the Kingdom of Water for a long time. We can send some people to lure them. As long as we promise to protect them, we can probably instigate rebellion. There are quite a few people. Let them go dog-eat-dog when the time comes, and it will save us some effort."

"This is a good idea, so I'll leave it to you. Be careful not to let others say that we in Konoha don't keep our word." The third generation nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, with me personally taking action, they won't have this chance!" Danzo said solemnly.
