Starting the fourth generation Hokage

When the name of Uchiha Mirror was mentioned, Danzo's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of surprise.

He had not heard anyone mention the name of this former companion for many years, and he did not expect that someone would suddenly mention it today.

There is no doubt that what Namikaze Minato said is true. Uchiha Mirror is indeed different. He can make Senju Tobirama, who is extremely wary and defensive of the Uchiha clan, recognize him and serve as his guard. This shows that he not only has unique talents and talents, but also because of Uchiha. Ha Jing is one of the few Uchihas who is not bound by nationalism.

If he hadn't died on the mission at the age of 25, under his leadership, the current relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village would be really unpredictable.

"No, the mirror is different."

Danzo was startled, but suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice: "Kage is a comrade who used to be in the same team with me, and he is also one of the few Uchiha people who can be recognized by the second generation. He has the ability to dedicate everything to Mu Ye's will of fire is fundamentally different from the ordinary Uchiha clan."

"He is a true Konoha ninja."

Danzo, who often boasts that those who can sacrifice for the village are the real ninjas, certainly did not miss the opportunity to praise Uchiha Mirror's sacrificial spirit and elevate himself at this time.

Come again?

The Uchiha Mirror can serve Konoha selflessly, but you Danzo cannot.

If he hadn't read the original work and knew Danzo's character, Namikaze Minato would have been deceived by his majestic and upright speech at this time.

Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato said bluntly with a profound tone: "Danzo-sama, there are actually many ninjas in the village who can abandon personal interests and dedicate themselves to the collective."

“However, there are some people in Konoha who only talk about self-sacrifice.

Compared to these hopelessly selfish people, isn't it more worth looking forward to cultivating a future Uchiha star? "

He deliberately emphasized the words self-sacrifice.

Although he didn't know if Danzo heard the sarcasm in his words, Namikaze Minato could clearly see that the former's expression suddenly changed imperceptibly after hearing his implicit sarcastic words.

"Uchiha Shisui..., this boy does have great potential."

After Tsunade listened for a long time, she suddenly interrupted and broke the argument between Namikaze Minato and Danzo in a timely manner.

“Yondaime, you have a good sense.

It is a pity that among the talented ninjas of Uchiha, most of the chakra attributes are Yin type and Fire type, and there are basically no exceptions with Yang type chakra attributes for practicing medical ninjutsu. "

"Otherwise, maybe their ability to control genjutsu and accurately control chakra will have good results when used in medical ninjutsu."

As she spoke, a hint of regret flashed across her expression. It seemed that she had not considered other factors when it came to selecting talented ninjas.

"Of course, Tsunade-sama.

The Uchiha clan has always been a ninja clan born for fighting.

How could one have the talent to use auxiliary ninjutsu? "

Namikaze Minato smiled warmly and ignored Danzo, who looked a little ugly, and turned his gaze to Tsunade on the other side.

Not long after, with the end of the third chunin exam.

The internal evaluation of this batch of more than 60 candidates has also been completed, and there are as many as 40 or 50 genin who have been promoted.

After all, in order to cope with the war, the conditions for promotion this time were naturally lowered a lot.

Namikaze Minato did not inform him personally about incorporating Uchiha Shisui into the Shadow Guard, but instead threw the former directly to Shiranui Genma, asking the three of them to take Shisui, who had just been promoted to chunin, with them. Do the task.

Due to his cultivation of immortality, he reached a critical period.

After the internal chuunin exam ended, he began to devote himself wholeheartedly to training.

…

More than a week later.

In the root base of Konoha, at the bottom of the building buried deep underground, in a certain hall.

Rione was nervously reporting to Danzo on the recent seal inspection work.

"Is there anything unusual about the Yondaime Jinchūriki's seal this week?" Danzo sat on the seat on the high platform, with both hands on the cane in front of him. He sat upright and looked down.

After hearing Liyin's report that there was almost no change, he raised his eyes to look at her with a little more doubt.

Since it was handed over to this young seal squad leader to check the jinchuriki seal as usual every day, he got the same answer in basically every report, which can't help but make people suspicious...

"Danzo-sama, the Fourth Hokage's sealing style, this week, is indeed not abnormal..."

Facing the gloomy gaze of the root leader, Rione's heart suddenly tightened again, and she quickly explained hurriedly: "As Minato-sama, the strongest sealer in Konoha, there is absolutely no chance that the Kyuubi will have any problems."

"Even if there is a problem, Minato-sama can solve it by himself..."

In fact, even she herself felt that it was a waste of time to bother the Hokage every day with this meaningless task of checking seals.

But since she was given this task, she couldn't help but follow it.

Danzo fell into a brief silence after hearing this.

His eyes flickered continuously, and after a long time, he suddenly muttered: "That's it. From today on, your task of inspecting the seal is over."

"It's been almost a month since the Kyuubi was sealed. Since the Jinchūriki's sealing style is stable, it's the best."

Liyin probably didn't expect that Danzo would directly announce the end of her mission like this. She was slightly startled. After she realized what she was doing, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart. She immediately replied: "Yes, Danzo-sama."

Then, at Danzo's signal, he left the underground building at the root.

After she left.

Danzo Shimura suddenly stood up slowly from his seat, walked through several corridors, and entered a spacious and bright underground space.

The layout of this underground space is unique.

Although the place is not big, there are flowers, trees and sunshine, just like the world on the ground.

However, if you look closely, you will find that it is deep underground and it is impossible for sunlight to shine in. The light in the space all comes from an artificial light source hanging from the top.

The spherical artificial light source illuminates the vegetation in the space like the sun.

After walking a few steps, a short figure suddenly jumped out from the depths of the vegetation and landed behind Danzo.

"Lord Danzo, you are here."

Half crouching on the ground was a ninja dressed as a teenager, with a mask on his head and a voice that sounded very childish.

After hearing the sound, Shimura Danzo slowly turned his head and glanced at the young man on the ground.

Then he asked without emotion: "A, how is the progress of your cultivation recently?"
