Root.
"Is there still no news about the people we sent to the Rain Village?"
At this time, Danzo's face was extremely gloomy, because what Watergate said to him in Naruto's office indicated that the former knew something.
He also knew that no matter how secretive Root's actions were, they couldn't hide from Naruto for too long.
His original plan was to take advantage of the time when Watergate succeeded Naruto to deal with these things.
But now, it's already beyond his planned time.
"No, it's just that the Rain Village has been under martial law, and no one responded to our negotiations with Hanzo." The Root member in front of him replied.
"Damn it!"
Danzo gritted his teeth. The current situation has shown that his original plan has changed.
What happened in the Rain Village, with Root's current power, he couldn't figure it out in a short time.
What he wanted to figure out the most now was whether Root's members were still alive.
Now that Naruto is aware of this matter, he can't explain the disappearance of a large number of Root's members.
This will be very bad for him.
Whoosh!
At this time, another ninja appeared in front of Danzo.
"Danzo-Sama, Sandaime Naruto -sama is here." The person said.
"Let's go."
Hearing this, Danzo's face suddenly changed, but just as he was about to move, a voice came. "Hahaha! Hahaha!
"Don't bother, I'm already here …" In front of the three, Sandaime Naruto had already arrived.
Danzo glanced at the ninja who came to report first, then raised his eyes and looked at Sandaime.
"Tell me, what did you send Root's members out of the village to do?"
Sandaime's face suddenly became gloomy, and his tone was heavy. From his body, there was an amazing momentum.
Danzo and the others' faces changed.
...
The next day, Naruto's office.
"You called me here, is there something important?" Uchiha Yan walked into the office and asked directly.
Since Watergate had called him here by name, there must be something important.
Seeing Uchiha Yan's arrival, Watergate stood up from his seat and said, "I want you to go to the Amegakure."
Although he had obtained some information from Sho Sho, Watergate still could not let go of the suspicion in his heart.
Yahiko was dead, and he couldn't just ignore the whereabouts of Nagato and Xiao Nan.
The former has the Rinnegan, if it falls into the hands of some ambitious guy, it will pose a huge threat to Wood Leaf and even the entire ninja world.
Moreover, the current peace was only on the surface.
Watergate knew in his heart that there was still a person whose identity he did not know, who was secretly plotting.
He couldn't leak the information about the Rinnegan, so even if it was Uchiha Yan, Watergate only told him some information that could be said.
After listening to Watergate's narration, Uchiha Yan nodded and said, "I will go back and prepare."
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Watergate said, with Uchiha Yan's current strength, he may not be under Sho Sho, and only he can carry out this task.
Just as Uchiha Yan was about to go back, there was a knock on the door outside the office.
"Please come in."
Watergate's golden brows wrinkled, because he already knew who was outside the door.
Sandaime opened the door and directly looked at Watergate and said, "Sandaime, I have something to tell you."
Watergate heard this and glanced at Uchiha Yan, who nodded and was about to leave.
"Wait outside the door." Sandaime looked at Uchiha Yan and said.
Although the latter is directly under Watergate, Sandaime is still the former Naruto, and his words can't be ignored.
Watergate glanced at Uchiha Yan, and he temporarily retreated outside the door and closed it.
"You called Uchiha Yan here because you are worried about what happened in the Rain Country, right?" Sandaime looked at Watergate and said.
"Yes."
Watergate replied. It's not a coincidence that Sandaime came here at this time.
So there's no need to beat around the bush.
"The Rinnegan is a matter of great importance, and we can't ignore it."
Sandaime nodded. Minato did Nagato and the others a favor on the Rain battlefield, and his biggest concern was that he didn't want to antagonize them.
Now that something big happened to the Akatsuki, and the whereabouts of Nagato and Xiao Nan are unknown, it's not a trivial matter.
"But you have to promise me that even if you find out something, don't ask the Squad about the members of Root for the time being," Sandaime took a deep breath and said while staring into the man's eyes.
Hearing this, the expression on Shui Men's face changed slightly, and the expression in his azure blue eyes also sank.
"In other words, the attack on the Akatsuki is indeed related to Root and Danzo?"
"You should know that Danzo won't admit it …" Sandaime said.
Watergate nodded, but it seems that Sandaime has already met Danzo.
Even if Danzo didn't admit it, Sandaime should have deduced something.
Otherwise, Sandaime wouldn't have said this directly to him.
As for why he did this, Watergate could understand.
The Third Shinobi World War just ended, and he, as the fourth Naruto, only succeeded for a few days.
If he held Danzo accountable at this time, it's bound to bring chaos to the village.
This is something that Sandaime absolutely can't allow to happen.
"I won't hold Danzo accountable now."
Watergate said, and then he changed the topic: "It's just that I can't just let Danzo take control of Root and do whatever he wants."
"Root members must be monitored, at least before they act, the village must know."
"I don't want something like this to happen again!"
At the end of his words, Minato's expression was extremely solemn.
Danzo took advantage of him succeeding Naruto to make a move, this kind of thing can't be ignored.
This also touched Watergate's bottom line.
"Ugh."
After pondering for a while, Sandaime sighed and said: "Well, I will inform Danzo about this matter later."
He knew Watergate's character, usually modest, gentle, and kind.
However, this doesn't mean that he's a pushover.
The name of Golden Flash is known throughout the Shinobi World, and once the man in front of him gets angry, it's not a joke.
After saying this, Watergate's eyes gradually softened, and said: "Jiraiya -sensei came to me last night, he's leaving the village."
Sandaime was startled, then he nodded and said.
"About the Akatsuki, if you don't have enough people under your command, you can come to me."
Sandaime was as clear as Watergate in his heart that Nagato in the Akatsuki has the Rinnegan, this is the key to this matter.
Watergate took a deep breath, it's not that easy to maintain the balance in Wood Leaf Village.
