Chapter Seventeen: Danzo's Danger Part Two
Is it permissible to give the child a definite answer of no?
The most important thing about the academy for Minato was its ability to attract a new group of ninja to serve the village. Minato thought that handing these ninja over to an evil old man like Danzō wouldn't be a good thing.
Is there a reason? Danzo asked me in a voice quieter than my falling feathers, but I realized that behind that soft voice was a deep anger inside me.
Yes, there's a reason I can't mention a student who's very important to me. I want this student to join the ANBU when he grows up.
Of course, Minato hadn't thought about it before, but after he came to me and hinted at his desire for this boy, his mind became extremely curious about the student who had managed to penetrate an old man's mind. Meanwhile, Danzō was watching Minato calmly from the outside, but the veins in his hand revealed his intense anger, so he smiled.
Minato noticed this and smiled.
So you don't want this information, Danzo said.
Minato thought about it too. There was a group that wanted to capture the tailed beasts. This was undoubtedly a great danger, and it could threaten the hopes of the village and other villages. But was Minato worried about this in particular? The answer was yes and no.
One of the most important things Minato knew before becoming Hokage was the ability to take responsibility. He didn't want to entrust children with important matters, like protecting the village, for example. He was forbidden from cooperating with Danzō on a deal he didn't fully understand.
In addition, the child whose name is Kazuki Suzuki, is a child who deserves this attention.
Minato wasn't stupid enough to send it to Danzo on a silver platter for some superficial information.
Since his teacher was spying on ninja villages, Minato wasn't worried about this terrorist group. Minato was Jiraiya's student and knew better than anyone how many spies his teacher had, so he wasn't afraid that his teacher's intelligence would be enough to retrieve information.
That's it, said Danzo.
Yes, that's it, I said without a second thought.
What about the resources he needs, Danzo said?
You need to bring better information if you want some resources. Your roots are draining a lot of the village's resources. You told me so, see.
Suddenly Danzo started to think for a moment, then said, "Okay," smiled, and turned to leave.
What surprised me... It wasn't like he left like that after losing an argument. He usually shouted. Minato recalled their previous arguments and knew that the man in front of him seemed to have other ideas.
After he left the room, the cheerful smile disappeared from Danzo's face as if it had never existed.
This bastard thought Danzo
Who does he think he is? Does he think that just because he's a Kage, he has the right to do whatever he wants? It should have been me, not that bastard Minato sitting in this chair.
The thoughts were like lava in Danzo's head, wanting to burn everything in its path, but he quickly calmed himself down.
He said he wanted to recruit him too. That didn't stop me from approaching him. At that moment, Danzō walked out of the Hokage's office with a grim smile on his face.

In health training, suddenly the voice of the system appeared in my head
(New mission warning)
What surprised me when I read the sudden warning from the regime?
"That's weird," I muttered silently. "The system has been down for so long that it didn't even give me new training after it gave me the Water Clone Jutsu. Why did it show up again?"
The screen appeared in front of Suzuki and opened completely, revealing the new mission right in front of him.
(Mission: A member of Konoha's advisory committee draws the attention of Konoha's Dark Danzō--)
What did I mutter in disbelief when I caught Danzo's attention? I asked out loud without intending to. I quickly covered my mouth to cover the sound. I glanced around in a quick moment but soon stopped.
What if someone is watching me?
I immediately thought of that. It's not unusual for Danzō to send a group of ninja to keep an eye on those he cares about. But what had I done to attract this bastard's attention?
اهدا اهدا امرت نفسي بصوت عالي بدون ان اخرج صوت في راسي وات الى المهمه بشكل اكثر دقه
(Mission: One of Konoha's advisors has caught the attention of Danzō, Konoha's Dark Lord. You are now under the radar. The Hokage has indirectly discovered your worth.)
The Hokage and Danzo followed the order without regard for my surprise.
(The host must protect his secrets and ward off or take advantage of threats. Request the mission. Deceive Danzō directly and remain under the Hokage's command.)
What can I do to trick this monster and what will I gain from it?
It's true that Master Jiro always called me a genius at the academy based on my answers to questions, but Suzuki was very self-conscious. The only reason he outperformed the other civilians and a few clan ninja was because he didn't train as hard. As far as things went, it was because Suzuki's mental age was much higher than the other children's, allowing him to focus more on his studies.
As if in his previous life he was a college student, but now the system only asks Suzuki to deceive Danzō, this man who planned many disasters without mentioning that he always got away with the crimes he committed against people.
Was Suzuki not afraid for his life?
Suzuki wanted to speak out loud to Danzō and the Hokage about this unexpected attention but he shut his mouth tightly as he didn't know if there were people spying on him at this moment and if they heard him talking about the Hokage and Danzō they might cause a lot of trouble for Suzuki
After some deliberation, he decided to go home. He quickly grabbed his things and left. He sped off without seeing anything else in his path. He didn't know if there was anything in his house that would allow them to spy on him, but Suzuki's best option was to go home.
He closed the door after entering, and put down his bag containing the books he sometimes read to control his chakra. He headed straight to the study table and sat down on the bench.
This is so bad what should I do if these two idiots come to me and try to manipulate me
First, there was the Hokage. Based on what the system said, it seemed he wanted me to remain under the Hokage's command. This meant I had to have the Hokage protect me in some way. This might not be difficult, especially since Minato had always shown his dislike for Danzō in the original series. It's no surprise that Suzuki would take advantage of this.
but
What if things were different? It was true that the regime had asked me to stay with the Hokage, but was the Hokage a safe person? Was this world's Minato still a good person? He didn't know. He hadn't approached the Hokage. The only thing Suzuki knew about the Hokage was that he would come to the academy in a week to see the students.
Then there was Danzo.
If Suzuki had been given a choice, he would never have chosen Danzō. Minato was a leaf, and he didn't know exactly what that was, but he would certainly be a hundred times better than the insane, inhuman Danzō.
He made up his mind that if he had to join a party, he would definitely join the Hokage.
First, Minato is still at least mentally stable and certainly wouldn't do things like put a seal to prevent him from speaking or doing things against his free will at non-critical times.
While Danzo will be a big problem both in the future moves he will have to take against the two Akatsuki groups and the various villages in the present.
(Warning: Do you accept the mission or not?)
The mission notification appeared this time there was something new in the missions the system gives usually I have to accept the mission but before that it had to give me a reward but this time it just gave me the option to accept or decline
He didn't give me the rewards. Suzuki thought for a moment and made his decision. He insisted on accepting the mission.
(Congratulations to the host for accepting Danzo's dangerous mission)
(Reward and Penalty Calculation)
My eyes widened when I read the punishment. Normally, the system would have punished me. This new order was surprising. The system didn't explain anything and just carried on with its work.
(Reward: First, raise the talent by one star. Second, obtain a random summon contract from the system.)
What are these rewards I wondered in a low voice
Can I raise my talent by one star? That's great. I've always been worried about my talent. It was only a three-star talent, which confirmed my previous suspicions. It seems the system can help me exceed my talent limit.
Then there was the second thing, the other reward, which was the summoning contract. This was very important to me if I wanted to learn the Sage skill and natural chakra in the future.
The rewards seemed really rewarding, but what about the punishment? After I understood the rewards, I moved on to the punishment.
(Punishment: Joining the Roots group and taking control of the host by Danzō)
I felt a shiver run through my body as I watched this punishment.
Oh god, would I be under Danzō's control if I failed to trick him and managed to join the Hokage?
This is definitely the best, craziest, baddest thing I've ever thought of.
I've already made up my mind that I must do anything to survive and it's very important that I join the Fourth Hokage because whether in the future or now even when I know him well in this different world, it's still important to be under the side of a strong man so that I can survive in this difficult world.
Maybe the Fourth Hokage is the right person for now.
Yes, so far I'm not the person to trust someone just because they helped me once and so far they haven't helped me with anything so I want to make my relationship with the Hokage stronger but at the same time so I can get some important things from him whether it's forbidden jutsu or other things or weapons if I can join the Hokage faction
Suzuki made his decision and took a deep breath to calm himself.
I've been assigned a new task for a while, and the work seems to be getting heavier. It's tough, but I'm getting used to the gradual increase in difficulty. Of course, the system won't reward me without a price.
I was wondering why the system and tasks had disappeared for so long. I must have been stupid. It seemed like he was preparing a big surprise for me.
-----
Did Sal Danzo leave his ninja roots?
Yes sir he left the place he went to his home it seems something is sudden he even took his things quickly and went home without thinking the root ninja said respectfully without leaving his head on the ground as he saw you
"That's strange. He shouldn't have left so early." Danzou asked, noting Suzuki's departure from the training ground at this particular time.
He looked at the root ninja with a stern look and said,
Are you sure the Hokage didn't contact Suzuki in any way, from the ANBU or any other way?
The radical ninja thought in those moments, remembering those times when he watched the boy and said,
"Of course not, sir. I've always been keeping an eye on him. There were no Anbu watching, but today I felt something strange. There was a group of people watching from afar." The Root ninja explained the situation.
Mmmmm Danzo thinks about the situation
"I guess I was wrong," Danzō thought after going to the Fourth Hokage. "That kid started showing strange movements. Is there a connection between him and the Fourth Hokage?"
In fact, when Danzo went to the Hokage, he was sure that Minato would give him the child without a second thought, so he used his magic card, which was a group of ninja to try to catch all the tailed beasts.
But Jiraiya's disciple's attitude constantly surprised Danzō.
Investigate him, keep monitoring him and let me know as soon as possible, he said and ordered the root ninja to leave.
He sat down at his desk and took a deep breath.
He looked at a stack of papers, and at the top of them was a paper that said, "Orochimaru's Letters."
Danzo's eyes focused on the paper and he held it out.
Orochimaru, what are you thinking? Danzō is suspicious of Orochimaru and the information he is sending him.
Think about how he got the information.
"And Roshimaru, this information you've given me is very useful. These people you're currently working with could pose a great danger to Konoha." Danzō smiled broadly.
But it might also be a very good opportunity, right, Akatsuki?
