Chapter 160: Warning to Orochimaru (Part 1)

Finally able to rest after get off work, Namikaze Minato did not immediately use the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to go home instantly. Instead, he left the office with a heavy heart and walked downstairs. Google search reading

Just after leaving the Hokage Building, a figure flashed out in the moonlight not far from the door.

"Kakashi? I kept you waiting for a long time..."

Namikaze Minato smiled apologetically and walked towards the figure without stopping.

Under the moonlight, Hatake Kakashi looked lazy and said indifferently: "Although it is very late, there should still be some stores that are still open."

Then the two of them walked together, heading towards the streets in the village where the lights were still sparsely lit.

Kakashi was waiting here, and of course he was greeted by Namikaze Minato.

This time, Kakashi was able to catch Danzo's handle and successfully defeat him completely. Kakashi had a great contribution.

In fact, ever since Nonou first sent back information saying that Kumogakure was secretly preparing for war, Namikaze Minato had guessed some of Danzo's plot. He took advantage of being in charge of the Intelligence Department and concealed the information simply because he wanted to win after Konoha's defeat. , take offense at yourself. However, there is obviously a gap in the strength of Konoha and Iwa Ninja Grass Ninja coalition forces on the battlefield of Grass Country. When Konoha exerts all its strength, the winner will be determined in a very short time. Without very accurate intelligence information, Kumogakure is There is no chance of finding an opportunity.

After considering this, before the war, Namikaze Minato secretly sent Kakashi to the border of the Kingdom of Thunder to secretly monitor the flow of intelligence.

Originally this was just a precaution, but I didn't expect to find out that someone was spreading and leaking important military information about Konoha, especially since the person pretending to be a member of Konoha Root...

Finally, Namikaze Minato and Kakashi found a restaurant that was about to close and sat in.

The shopkeeper was naturally very enthusiastic when he saw the Hokage patronizing the shop.

After a while of special arrangements, he left with a few reluctant female clerks...

"...Minato-sensei is still as popular as before..." Kakashi crossed his arms and sat across from him.

They couldn't help but complain about the few female shop assistants who had been a little too enthusiastic in serving Namikaze Minato just now.

But Namikaze Minato smiled helplessly. He looked at Kakashi with the same tone as when he was teasing Obito. He was suddenly startled, and then said with concern: "Kakashi, by the way, you are in ANBU It’s been a while.”

"Have you ever considered returning to the Jonin establishment?"

The reason why I asked this was because Namikaze Minato discovered that Kakashi was now much more cheerful than he was when he first entered the ANBU. The former Minato let Kakashi enter the Anbu so that he could escape the blow of Obito and Rin's death. Fortunately, during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Obito's identity was revealed, and Kakashi's shock and torture due to the death of his companion Obito was reduced by most.

So at this time, Kakashi also came out of the shadows earlier than in the original work.

Although he also has a new goal, which is to vow to bring Uchiha Obito, who is harming Konoha, back to the village with his own hands...

Namikaze Minato's suggestion caused Kakashi to fall into brief thought.

He actually felt deeply about his long ANBU career. The nature of the ANBU department's work is extremely special. At the beginning, Kakashi, who had just entered the ANBU, once thought that this kind of work that only focused on completing the task, regardless of the reason, and was only responsible for the Hokage, was the real ninja profession.

But gradually, as he came into contact with secrets and broadened his horizons, he realized that ninjas should neither be simple machines nor people who only act out of their own free will.

"Sorry, Minato-sensei, I think ANBU is more suitable for me right now..."

Kakashi hesitated, and finally rejected Namikaze Minato's proposal, but what Namikaze Minato didn't know was that after Kakashi said this, he added another sentence in his heart: At least, in Before catching that guy Obito back...

Since it was Kakashi's own wish, Namikaze Minato had no choice but to respect it.

"If that's the case, then you have to be prepared to work hard without complaint..."

Namikaze Minato smiled slyly, and suddenly changed his expression to look at cheap labor. At the same time, he pretended to suddenly think of something and said: "By the way, I happen to have an important mission to go to the Country of Grass tomorrow, so I'll hand it in." There you go."

Just right? This looks like it was planned for a long time, right?

Kakashi was speechless and wanted to cry out, but he couldn't.

He rolled his eyes and said calmly: "Speaking of which, I have been hungry for a long time today. Do you really have enough money in Mr. Minato's wallet?"

"But it seems that it would be easy for the Hokage to pay on credit..."

Namikaze Minato:......

…

…

Early the next morning, Namikaze Minato finally announced that he was officially back at work.

Due to the accumulation of too many things, except for the clone sitting in the office, Namikaze Minato's main body could not be idle. I don’t even have the time to practice leisurely as usual.

The root base has been completely sealed after a whole morning.

It took a lot of time for Namikaze Minato to look through the files of more than 20 Danzo members.

After a thorough investigation of Danzo, he discovered that the vast majority of the members of the Roots were indeed orphans with no life experience or background. No wonder the brainwashing was carried out so smoothly...

After considering for a long time, for these emotionless Danzo machines, Namikaze Minato decided to recruit him into the Anbu first.

Then he observed for a period of time, and then considered whether to continue to stay in the Anbu or resume their normal ninja editor status and serve the village as an ordinary ninja of Konoha.

After dealing with the matters of the Root Base, Namikaze Minato rushed to the Konoha Hospital without stopping.

Because the elite Genin team led by Gu Jie finally came back yesterday afternoon.

And the not-so-good news is that Gu Jie himself is said to have been seriously injured because of protecting the Genin in the team. This legendary Genin with a strong will of fire has been highly valued by successive Hokages. The former Namikaze Minato also had the experience of sharing tasks with him, so it is reasonable for him, as the fourth Hokage, to take the initiative to visit him.

Just as Minato went to the hospital, in the Hokage building.

In the office, an extremely rare Konoha ninja also came.

"… Fourth Hokage, I heard you have something to ask me?"

A deep and hoarse voice echoed in the Hokage's office. A man with long black hair, pale skin, and golden eyes was standing opposite Minato Namikaze.

Although he was one of the famous Sannin, he rarely appeared in the Hokage's office.

Minato Namikaze saw Orochimaru talking while leisurely looking around the layout of the office. When he passed by the photos of several generations of Hokage on one side of the wall, he stopped for a moment with interest.

Minato Namikaze's mood suddenly became a little complicated.

Because he had a vague premonition that the time to confront Orochimaru was probably coming soon...
