The storm outside the window didn't seem to stop, the water of the Milky Way was leaking and splashing on the ground. The sun hidden behind the dark clouds had already set, the sky was dark, without a trace of light.
The living room of Tsuka's house was brightly lit, Aoyama, Shikamaru, and Dingji were sitting opposite each other.
"I know Gen's reputation isn't good, but it's an organization that my sensei created. I think this is a good opportunity. Shikamaru, Dingji, what do you think?" Aoyama said nervously.
He didn't intend to learn from Danzo. He lived a lonely life, without a single friend. He lived in the underground base all day long. That life was too miserable.
At least, Aoyama didn't want to cut ties with Shikamaru and Dingji, so he specifically asked for their opinion.
Shikamaru frowned, Gen's reputation was indeed bad, but he didn't care. As the next head of the Nara family, he wouldn't be swayed by this kind of thing. He knew very well that ninjas had a bright side, and naturally, they also had a dark side.
But understanding was one thing, when he thought of his good friend taking over Gen and doing the dirty work, he didn't feel very happy.
"If you want to do it, then do it. Anyway, I think this matter depends on your own wishes." Dingji said casually, as if he didn't care at all.
Shikamaru was suddenly speechless, but he also laughed. He was right, no matter how much he said, it was up to the other party to do it. What was he worrying about? Dingji hit the nail on the head.
"Dingji is right, Aoyama, this matter depends on you. If you want to do it, then it's okay. Although Gen's reputation isn't good, he's just following orders. Even without Gen, there will still be Anbu to do it." Shikamaru said with a smile.
After hearing Dingji and Shikamaru's words, Aoyama heaved a sigh of relief. It was always a good thing that someone understood and supported her.
"By the way, Shikamaru, there's something I need your help with."
Aoyama looked at Shikamaru with a smile on her face …
The next day, the wind and rain were still the same. Bean-sized raindrops fell to the ground, breaking into a ball of powder and melting into the puddle on the ground.
Aoyama walked through the rain with her light green bamboo paper umbrella. Her black boots created ripples in the water as she walked. She arrived at a small tavern with her umbrella. It was an inconspicuous little tavern. Even in such bad weather, it was still open for business, and it was quite crowded.
In a quiet private room, Nara Chiyu was sitting alone. He was drinking and enjoying this leisurely time.
"Long time no see, Lord Chiyu." Aoyama walked in.
"It has indeed been a long time since we last met. After you finished fighting with the Kumo Ninjas, you disappeared without a trace. Kaze Takeugen was almost worried to death. I thought that you were killed by Second Last." Chiyu teased with a smile.
Aoyama sat opposite Chiyu and smiled. "It's not that easy to kill me. It wasn't that easy in the past, and it's even more impossible now."
His tone was extremely confident and calm, which made Chiyu blink in surprise. This is a little different from the Aoyama in the past. Chiyu couldn't help but feel a little moved. It seems that a lot of things have happened in the past three months.
"Let's be serious, why did you ask Shikamaru to pass a message to me?" Chiyu thought for a while and said bluntly.
Aoyama held the glass of wine and took a sip. The spicy taste made him frown. He was still not used to drinking wine.
"Teacher sent me a letter and asked me if I want to inherit his position. I was thinking of asking someone to ask about it. Kaze Takeugen is not in the village now, so I can only come to you."
Qian Yu's brows twitched as he recalled Danzo's arrangement. From the looks of it now, Danzo was indeed trying to set up a stumbling block for Yuehua. I don't know if Danzo was truly trying to use this opportunity to temper Yuehua, or …
At the thought of this, he suddenly shivered. Chiyu had also noticed recently that ever since the Three Generations died in the battle, Danzō had changed. He had become more extreme and his temper had become more gloomy. Even he couldn't figure out Danzō's thoughts and couldn't tell what Danzō was up to.
"Do you want to fight for that position? Root has expanded very much now, and its strength is much stronger than before. Therefore, there are many people eyeing that position. If you want to fight for it, you can't do it if you don't have enough strength. "
Chiyu didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. Aoyama was the candidate he was optimistic about, and he had a good relationship with Shikamaru. Naturally, he hoped that Aoyama could take over that position.
"In terms of strength, I am confident. In the village, I am not afraid of anyone. Even if I am surrounded, I am confident that I can survive." Aoyama clenched his fist, and his eyes were filled with unshakable confidence.
"Anyone …?"
Chiyu was speechless. This tone was a bit too big. He knew that Aoyama could fight with Jinchuriki, but Jinchuriki was just a benchmark. The five great ninja villages all had experts that could suppress Jinchuriki.
"Chiyu -sama, even if it is Tsunade-sama, I am confident that I can defeat her. Before returning to the village some time ago, I fought with a member of the Akatsuki. Sand Crypsis Village's S-level rebel ninja, Sasori Akashina, and I killed him with my own hands."
"Is this true?"
The wine glass fell on the table with a bang, and the wine spilled all over the table. Chiyu didn't care at all. He just stared at Aoyama with his eyes wide open, and the corner of his mouth trembled as he asked.
"Indeed, I brought back Sasori Akashina's body and placed it in the canyon base. Kota will deal with it, and I hope that he can dig up something useful." Aoyama smiled very relaxedly.
"Sasori Akashina, Aoyama, you have really become stronger." Chiyu sighed. It hasn't been long since we last met, and Aoyama's strength has already become so strong. However, this is also good, this way, it will be easier for him to inherit Danzō's position.
"Since this is the case, there are now two people in Root, Chou 3 and Mao 9. The two of them are also top-notch experts, and each of them has a group of people supporting them. Not only within Root, but also many families support them."
"However, compared to you, they are still far behind. You are Danzō -sama's only direct disciple, and you have a natural advantage in terms of identity. You don't need to play any tricks, just openly declare that you want to inherit the position, and at the same time, call Haku and the others back. You can't control the entire Root by yourself, it will be easier to do things with your own confidants …"
Chiyu spilled out all the words that were hidden in the bottom of his heart, and wholeheartedly helped Aoyama to come up with a plan.
Outside the tavern, it was raining continuously, and the cold wind was bone-chilling. However, inside the tavern, it was brightly lit, and there was laughter everywhere. Aoyama's heart was also heated up by Chiyu's encouragement. It was indeed much better to have someone come up with an idea than to blindly think about it alone.
