Of course the Third Hokage would be angry. Nara Shikamaru represented not only himself, but the direction of a large group of secret ninja clans in Konoha.

Under normal circumstances, the attraction of the Anbu directly under the Konoha Hokage and the Root organization to recruit new members is different. It is precisely because it is difficult for Shimura Danzo's Root organization to absorb the joining of secret ninjas that he would accept Mo Congfeng's recruitment of a group of civilian ninjas.

However, after Nara Shikaku becomes the captain of a detachment, the situation of the Root organization will change. Shimura Danzo only needs to give Nara Shikaku the same right to recruit members as Mo Congfeng. Nara Shikaku will use the influence of the Nara clan among the secret ninja clans to attract a group of secret ninjas to join.

If Danzo Shimura is willing, he only needs to transfer the secret family ninjas from Nara Shikaku's command to other detachments or promote secret ninjas to become new detachment commanders, and then Danzo Shimura will have an endless supply of available secret family ninjas.

Danzo Shimura successfully opened a gap in the introduction of secret family ninja talents through Nara Shikaku, so the Third Hokage would be angry, because these secret family ninjas were the basic base of the Third Hokage, and they were the force he could easily supplement to the Anbu directly under the Hokage and then trust.

Among the six current detachments of the Root organization, Kinoshita Ichiro's Detachment C, Mo Congfeng's Detachment D, and Shina Touhiko's Detachment E are undoubtedly composed mainly of civilian ninjas, and these are forces that Mo Congfeng can influence.

However, after Nara Shikaku joined the Root organization, the importance of Mo Congfeng and others would be drastically reduced, and they would truly become expendable. After all, Shimura Danzo had more high-quality secret family ninjas who could be continuously replenished.

Mo Congfeng has a premonition that the Seal of the Tongue Evil Root will soon arrive, and Shimura Danzo's control over the Root Organization will be further strengthened.

Sure enough, the next morning, Danzo Shimura's order arrived, requiring a personnel check at each detachment's base.

Mo Congfeng immediately created a clone, sneaked out of Konoha, contacted Shina Touhiko of the Wu Detachment, hid enough strength, and prepared to welcome the personnel inspection.

Accompanied by Orochimaru and Nara Shikaku, Danzo Shimura first checked the personnel of Team C based in Konoha.

The current temporary base of Team C is the former base of Team D, which was originally occupied by Mo Congfeng. It was handed over to Kinoshita Ichiro by Mo Congfeng after Team D moved out of Konoha.

After accepting the inspection from Shimura Danzo, Kinoshitarou returned home with a very gloomy face. He thought that he had some power in his hands and could solve the organization problem of his companions, but he did not expect that his companions except himself were planted with the mark of the tongue troublemaker, and their freedom was restricted. He didn't know whether it was a gain or a loss.

Mo Congfeng sighed in his heart. Most of the members of the three detachments, Bing, Ding and Wu, were introduced by Kinoshita Ichirō. Perhaps some of his former friends would resent him.

The next teams to be checked were the Ding and Wu detachments, and Mo Congfeng was already fully prepared.

When Mo Congfeng accompanied Danzo Shimura to the base outside Konoha, some minor accidents occurred.

A team of ninjas jumped out to assassinate, but Mo Congfeng was accompanied by Danzo Shimura, Orochimaru and Nara Shikaku. This kind of lineup was not something that a small team of ninjas could deal with.

Danzo Shimura and Orochimaru didn't even have to take action. The battle was resolved by Mo Congfeng and Nara Shikaku alone. Nara Shikaku and Mo Congfeng each captured a prisoner.

Nara Shikaku proposed that among the two prisoners, one could survive, and whoever was willing to tell the truth first would survive.

As a result, the ninja captured by Mo Congfeng spoke first, and Nara Shikaku decisively killed his companion.

According to the confession of this ninja, they came to assassinate Cong Fengmo, whose bounty at the gold exchange had reached 35 million taels.

After the ninja told everything he knew, Orochimaru was about to kill him but was stopped by Mo Congfeng.

Orochimaru said coldly, "Such a cowardly ninja has no value in existence. Being kind will only hurt the village."

Mo Congfeng didn't care. "I just don't want my promise to be meaningless. A man without faith cannot stand."

Orochimaru sneered, but Mo Congfeng said, "We are heading to the base of the Ding detachment. Let's take this person with us. Such a traitor can be used as a source of intelligence for our Ding detachment."

Before Orochimaru could retort, Mo Congfeng had already knocked out the ninja prisoner and sealed him in the scroll with a series of smooth movements.

After this little episode, Mo Congfeng and four others came to the base of Team Ding. Mo Congfeng had already given instructions and had the team members accept the Seal of Eradicating Tongues, and only let the twelve children stay away.

Orochimaru proposed to implant the seal of the Root of Tongue in the twelve children, but Mo Congfeng refused on the grounds that they did not meet the selection criteria of the Root organization and the seal of the Root organization should not be easily leaked.

Danzo Shimura was not in a hurry either and ignored the argument between Mo Congfeng and Orochimaru.

Finally, Mo Congfeng promised that if any of the twelve children were selected to join the Ding Detachment in the future, they would be brought to Konoha to receive the Seal of the Tongue.

Nara Shikaku also jumped out to speak for Mo Congfeng, thinking that the existence of the Tongue Trouble Root Awareness Seal itself was a relatively important piece of information that needed to be kept secret, so Orochimaru gave up unwillingly.

Afterwards, Orochimaru handed Mo Congfeng a scroll with the names of the corresponding D-Team ninjas written on it with ninja blood and chakra, and told Mo Congfeng that he could judge whether the team members were alive or not by the presence or absence of the names on the scroll. Of course, there was another possibility for the disappearance of the names, that is, the Seal of the Tongue Evil Root Awareness on their bodies had been lifted.

Mo Congfeng believed that this thing would not be the only one in his hands, and Danzo Shimura should also get a corresponding backup in the end.

It was through this method that Orochimaru determined that the seal of the tongue disaster root on Shina Tohiko and Ye Cang had been lifted.

The situation of the Wu Detachment is the same. Except for Shina Touhiko, the captain of the detachment, all other members of the Wu Detachment will be planted with the Seal of the Tongue Evil Root.

When Orochimaru asked why the seal of the tongue curse on Ye Cang disappeared, Mo Congfeng told him that he had paid a great price and asked a master to remove the seal on Shina Tohiko and Ye Cang, and even his own seal was removed.

Orochimaru immediately expressed his desire to meet this so-called master.

Mo Congfeng said that this master did not like to be disturbed by outsiders and was very disgusted with the person who invented such a curse, so it was better not to meet him.

Orochimaru was silent for a moment, and finally did not say the guess he threatened Mo Congfeng, that is, Mo Congfeng and Hiruhu were still in contact, and it was Hiruhu's special bloodline limit that solved the curse.

However, Mo Congfeng inferred that Orochimaru must have told Danzo Shimura about this speculation, but because there was no evidence or support from Danzo Shimura, it was not convenient to say it out loud and identify it in public.

If Orochimaru really accuses Mo Congfeng of collusion with Beiluhu, Mo Congfeng will immediately report the name of Monk Zhongjue, and Orochimaru will completely break off with Mo Congfeng. This will be strong evidence for Orochimaru to frame Mo Congfeng, and Mo Congfeng will have reason to take any countermeasures.

This is what Danzo Shimura does not want to see, and it is also a trap that Mo Congfeng has prepared for Orochimaru. However, Orochimaru is not a fool. He either has solid evidence or the full support of Danzo Shimura, otherwise he will not easily break through the last step and step into this trap.

The last person who should be implanted with the Tongue Trouble Root Seal was Yekura. When a new Tongue Trouble Root Seal appeared on Yekura's tongue, the purpose of Shimura Danzo's trip was completely achieved.

The excessive influence of the civilian ninja faction represented by Mo Congfeng on the Root Organization was basically eliminated. Because of the variable of Nara Shikaku joining the Root Organization, Shimura Danzo's control over the Root Organization was completely consolidated.

Mo Congfeng felt that he had lost another round.
