Naruto: Climbing Ranks to Rule the Ninja World! - Chapter 20
Chapter 20: Public Positions
Sarutobi Hiruzen has agreed, and Shihouin Naraku’s plan has begun to be implemented in full swing.
As a boss, he is actually not too busy. As long as he takes care of the big picture, his subordinates will naturally do the specific things.
“Chief!”
“Oh, Bai Huo, you’re here.”
Shihouin Naraku looked at his clansman, a middle-aged ninja who was no longer young.
“How’s it going, Bai Huo, is there still hope?”
“Clan leader! I’m sorry to disappoint you! My talents are not enough to become a Konoha Jōnin and share your worries!”
Seeing Shihouin Baihuo’s ashamed look, Naraku could only scratch his head helplessly. The Shihouin family was not short of resources now, and since it still didn’t work, maybe this guy really had no talent for ninja.
“Since you’re not cut out to be a ninja, then become the dean!”
“ah?”
Shihouin Baihuo was a little confused and didn’t know what his family leader meant.
“You should have heard about the reorganization of the medical emergency team. You should take charge of the sanatorium center established for the daimyo and nobles of various countries.”
Although Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu would definitely intervene, he was not prepared to hand over the position of dean to their people. After all, everyone could see how lucrative this position was.
“Yes! I understand!”
Shihouin Baihuo nodded immediately. This was a good job and he would definitely not refuse it for the sake of his family.
“Are the others okay? I haven’t paid much attention to the medical emergency team recently. Has anyone caused trouble because of my change in position?”
Shihouin Bai Huo immediately shook his head and said to Naraku with pride.
“The tribesmen are very good. Even after the chief left, no one dared to say anything to us.”
Since Naraku mastered the medical emergency class, he arranged some people from the Shihouin family to be in it. Even if they couldn’t learn medical ninjutsu, it would be easy for them to be simple nurses and administrative staff.
The treatment is good and the danger is greatly reduced. The Shihouin family never had such a good thing before.
But unfortunately, even with his care, the Shihouin family did not have a few more powerful ninjas.
There is no way, there are still too few people.
“Remember one thing…” Naraku patted Shihouin Bai Huo’s shoulder and reminded him, “There will definitely be someone who covets your position, but no matter who it is, you are not allowed to give it up!”
“Yes! I understand!”
“Okay, get busy…”
Naraku continued to deal with family matters, and it didn’t take long to resolve them all, after all, it was a small family.
Although the Shihouin clan can’t help much at the moment, Naraku still supports everyone in the clan because they are really willing to die for Naraku!
Because all the members of the Shihouin family understand who made their lives better!
……
The Konohagakure gate is always crowded with people.
Civilians, ninjas, nobles, merchants, etc. can enter and exit through the gate after registration.
Of course, there must be more than one road and passage leading to the outside of Konoha Village.
“call……”
Yamanaka Yue, who had just returned from a secret side door of Konoha Village, let out a sigh of relief. The tasks in the past few days were a bit tiring, but he was finally back in the village and had time to rest for a while.
However, you still have to go to the Anbu base and complete the task before you can change clothes and throw away the mask on your face.
Yamanaka Yue led his squad, and the four of them headed towards the Anbu base.
“Um?”
Although they had returned to the village, the four were still vigilant. When they found something wrong, they immediately looked towards the woods not far away.
“Squeak…”
A figure walked out of the woods and looked at Yamanaka Yue who had not yet taken off his mask.
“Yamanaka style?!”
Yamanaka Yue still did not let down her guard. She frowned at Yamanaka Feng who suddenly appeared. Wasn’t her brother Shimura Danzō’s bodyguard? Why did he come here to block her?
“Master Danzo wants to see you!”
Yamanaka Feng, who is tall and has orange hair, is wearing combat clothes. There is no expression on his face. He just looks at his sister, as if he will take action if Yamanaka Yue does not leave with him.
“I’m an Anbu member! Under the command of Shihouin Naraku-sama!”
“I will not go with you without the order from Lord Naraku and Lord Hokage!”
Yamanaka Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his black-gloved hands, and spread them out towards Yamanaka Yue.
Just because of a disagreement, you have to fight?
“clang!”
Yamanaka Yue and the Anbu ninjas behind her all drew their swords and aimed at Yamanaka Feng.
The air was filled with murderous intent between the two sides, as if a life-and-death battle would break out in an instant.
“Don’t get excited, Wind!”
Shimura Danzō slowly walked out of the dark woods with a cane, and behind him was a guard, Aburame Togen of the Aburame clan!
Trouble…
At this time, an Anbu ninja behind Yamanaka Yue retreated silently, and when he was about to turn around and leave, he found that there was a ninja behind him who was looking at him.
Can’t I ask for help?
Without looking back, Yamanaka Yue knew that it was no longer possible to ask for help. Various strategies flashed through her mind rapidly, but she rejected them all one by one.
“Da-da-da”
Shimura Danzō stepped closer with his crutches. The pressure from him became stronger and stronger, and sweat began to drip from Yamanaka Yue’s forehead.
“Bang!”
The cane slammed hard on the ground, and Shimura Danzō said without question, “Yue! You are a Root!”
Yamanaka Yue remained silent!
Shimura Danzō never liked being questioned by others, but when he saw this scene, he remained calm and composed, as if he had everything in the world under his control.
“It seems that you have all forgotten the strict laws of the Root Organization!”
Then Shimura Danzō fell silent, and then looked at Yamanaka Yue and the other three calmly. He believed that soon they would kneel before him and surrender again!
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
There was a suffocating silence.
A crow cackles in the air—
Why no response?
A flash of surprise and doubt flashed across his eyes, and Shimura Danzō immediately understood what had happened.
The seal of eradicating tongue evil has been unlocked!!!
The other techniques hidden in the sealing technique also disappeared!
“Who untied it?”
“I!!!”
Everyone present suddenly woke up!
The light reflected in the pupils was like the rising sun with flames, the shadows faded away little by little, and the coldness went away silently.
Everyone present swallowed involuntarily, and a hot breath came towards them.
Boom boom boom…
The steady and powerful footsteps gradually approached.
Everyone narrowed their eyes slightly, the sunlight slanted, and the person who came finally revealed his full appearance!
Confidence!
With one hand in his pocket and a smile on his face, Naraku walked closer and stood in front of Shimura Danzō.
Patting the jumping flame on his shoulder, Shihouin Naraku looked at Shimura Danzō curiously, “What are you doing here, Danzo-senpai?”
“Do you have something to ask my subordinates? Then you can ask me directly. I know more!”
Shimura Danzō’s expression remained unchanged, but the veins on his palms, which were tightly gripping the cane, were now visible.
“You should call me Sir!”
“That’s right…” Naraku nodded seriously, “It’s called by position in public, I understand!”
“By the way, what is Danzo-senpai’s job?”
Who are you?
Shimura Danzō’s entire demeanor turned gloomy in an instant, but he was a well-known figure in the ninja world after all, so he wouldn’t lose his composure so easily.
“Senior! What were you doing just now?”
Shihouin Naraku’s voice suddenly rose a notch, and at the same time he took a step forward, his eyes fixed on Shimura Danzō.
Swish! Swish!
Yamanaka Kaze and Aburame Togen rushed in front of Shimura Danzō at the same time, and took a fighting stance against Shihouin Naraku, and another ninja blocked Danzo’s side.
Swoosh——
At the same moment, four Anbu members, led by Yamanaka Yue, stood in front of Naraku!
Only Shimura Danzō and Shihouin Naraku stared at each other without shifting their gaze, as if they were unaware of the movement around them.
