A new broom sweeps clean, and Minato, the new Hokage, was no exception.
Po Watergate took over the Anbu from the Sandaime Hokage, and now as the Fourth Hokage, the first thing he did was to deal with the Anbu.
When the Sandaime Hokage retired, he took a quarter of the Anbu with him, including the Anbu Captain.
These were the Sandaime's trusted aides, so naturally they wouldn't be under Po Watergate's command.
The original Anbu Captain was also someone close to the Sandaime Hokage.
The Anbu was the most secret and powerful force of the Hokage, and the position of the Anbu Captain must be given to the most trusted person.
But Po Watergate didn't have anyone he could use at the moment, so after much consideration, Po Watergate decided to train Kakashi to be the new Anbu Captain.
Po Watergate made this decision because Kakashi was his disciple, and Kakashi had been with him since he graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of five, so he could be trusted.
Second, because of Kakashi's talent and strength, he was close to the Quasi Kage level at the age of 14, so he could take over the position of Anbu Captain after a few years of experience.
Third, Kakashi was originally part of the Anbu, and one of the requirements of Uchiha Fugaku's promise to Kakashi was that Kakashi had to disappear for a while.
Therefore, the Sandaime Hokage included Kakashi in the Anbu, but because Kakashi needed time to fuse with the Sharingan, it was delayed and he didn't officially join the Anbu.
Now that the fusion of Kakashi's Sharingan has been completed, it was time to officially join the Anbu.
As for the other missing Anbu, Po Watergate intends to focus on civilian ninjas, Ino-Shika-Cho, and a few ninjas from the Hyuga and Uchiha Clan.
To be honest, Po Watergate didn't fully trust the Hyuga and Uchiha. They chose Po Watergate to be the Fourth Hokage, a large part of the reason was that the rapid development of the Sarutobi Clan threatened the status of their two clans.
Now that the Third Hokage has abdicated, the Sarutobi clan has lost their biggest backer, and their development will naturally slow down.
Without the threat of the Sarutobi Clan, Po Watergate found it hard to believe that Hyuga and Uchiha would sincerely help him.
The recruitment of the Dark Unit wasn't something that could be done overnight. After Po Watergate finalized the basic recruitment direction, he put his energy on another matter.
This matter is to unite with the Uchiha, Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho, and other clans to reduce the power of the two elders and Danzo.
Contrary to Po Watergate's expectations, the two elders and Danzo didn't resist, and Po Watergate easily achieved his goal.
Root, Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, and Danzo all gathered together.
"Why are the two of you looking for me?" Kochun said in an extremely cold tone.
Ever since Uchiha Kagami's Sharingan was given to Orochimaru by Danzo and Mitokado Homura, Koharu began to deliberately keep her distance from the two.
As of today, the three of them haven't discussed anything together for a long time.
Homura sighed and said with a helpless tone, "Koharu, I've already explained to you about Kagami Sharingan. Why do you …"
"If you're here to talk nonsense, then I'm leaving." Koharu stood up and was about to leave.
Danzo saw this and quickly stopped her, "Koharu, wait a minute! We really have something to do today! "
"What is it? Hurry up and say it! "Koharu said impatiently.
"Well, we want you to help us collect a few war orphans under the age of 10. You've seen the current situation of Root, and I need new blood to replenish Root's consumption. You've been doing this before, so this time I'm asking you to do it."
Koharu was silent for a while, and finally agreed to Danzo's request.
Compared to many years of comrade-in-arms, Koharu still cared about old friendships.
After Koharu left, Homura showed his true face, "Danzo, can Orochimaru really make Mokuton ninja reappear?"
"It should be possible! Orochimaru promised me. "Danzo said faintly.
"I hope he can really do it! For this plan, we gave up a lot of power in Po Watergate to make him relax his vigilance. If we fail, the price will be too heavy. "
"Homura, don't worry! Mokuton is the inheritance of the will of fire. As long as we can make Mokuton ninja reappear, we can get back everything we gave up several times over. "
"Ah! I hope so! "Homura sighed and got up and left Root.
A few days later, Danzo sent a dozen children under the age of 10 to Orochimaru's laboratory. They were all Koharu's children.
"Orochimaru, I've found the children as you requested. Can we start now?"
After checking the children, Orochimaru nodded with satisfaction and told Danzo that he would start the experiment immediately.
As soon as Danzo left, Orochimaru immediately sent someone to inform Far Yamanaka. Far Away In The Mountains received Orochimaru's message and immediately teleported to Orochimaru's laboratory.
As soon as he arrived at the laboratory, Far Yamanaka frowned and felt very uncomfortable.
"Ryo-kun, Danzo only sent these children for the time being. When do we start?"
Far Yamanaka quickly said to Orochimaru, "Orochi san, these children don't need to participate in the experiment. I have a way to determine which children are likely to become Mokuton ninjas and which are not."
Orochimaru frowned and had some doubts about Far Yamanaka's words, "Ryo-kun, you don't want to save these children, do you?!"
Far Yamanaka didn't expect Orochimaru to guess his purpose so easily. In fact, Far Yamanaka participated in the experiment to save these children so that they wouldn't die tragically like in the Manga.
Far Yamanaka, who received a modern education, couldn't accept such a thing, let alone a group of children.
However, Far Yamanaka didn't admit it and calmly explained, "Orochi san, you know that I have fused with a part of Hashirama's genes. Coupled with the secret technique of our Yamanaka clan, I can sense the hidden vitality in these children, and vitality is the key to whether they can withstand Hashirama's cells."
Orochimaru fell silent when he heard Far Yamanaka's words. After thinking for a long time, Orochimaru temporarily agreed with Far Yamanaka's opinion.
Far Yamanaka was relieved when he heard Orochimaru's agreement. What he said just now was half true and half false. He could sense the vitality in these children, but he didn't know if it could withstand Hashirama's cells.
Far Yamanaka's idea was to check the memories of these children one by one, find Yamato in the Manga, and let Orochimaru fulfill his wish of reproducing Mokuton ninja.
