Naruto: The Hidden Protector

Chapter 68

Tsunade still felt like crying after remembering that conversation. Although she really loved her grandfather she really didn’t want to become Hokage. That is just asking for hell. But unfortunately, the devil herself declared her fate and she is too powerless to do anything.

‘Well I’ll just play according to what Izanamiu wants for now and when the situation here is stabilized I will immediately throw this mantle to a fool so I can live as freely as I want ‘ Tsunade thought with an evil smile.

If Izanami had heard Tsunade’s thoughts she would just shake her head in pity. Didn’t Tsunade just raise a flag? So now she would be the Hokage for a very long time.

“As expected that monkey is too easy for an opponent. “ Izanami said as she watched the whole drama in the Hokage Office with her observation of Haki.

Honestly speaking she was a bit shocked at how easily Hiruzen gave in when the pressure he felt increased. She thought he would at the very least hesitate when nominating Tsnade.

‘ Did his guilt finally get to him ‘ she wondered.

While she was wondering this she felt a tug on her clothes. Coming out of her contemplation she found it was Naruto who was tugging at her clothes.

She smiled at him and asked, “What is the matter Naruto “

“Big sis, can we go to the park today to play? “ Naruto asked with a bit of expectation. In the past, he didn’t have anyone to play with because all the adults would take away their children when he came to the park. So he was always lonely. But now with big sister Izanami here he won’t be lonely anymore.

“ Oh since it is a request from sweet dear Naruto I can’t refuse can I “ Izanami smiled and said to Naruto.

“Yay, I’m going to the park with big sister Izanami. “Naruto said excitedly as he jumped up and down.

“ Oh, I know why don’t we take the four animals with us too. I don’t think they had any exercise for a while. “Izanami said as she suddenly remembered this. Although none of them are normal animals for Naruto they are excellent playmates.

And besides, Kaguya has been getting a little fat lately. If this goes on she would be a fat rabbit that would only be good at lazing around.

“Yay with all of us together it will be more fun. “ Naruto’s excitement doubled when he heard he would be getting more playmates.

“ Now then Naruto, why don’t you fetch them so we can go immediately? "Hearing Izanami’s words, Naruto saluted like a soldier and said, “As you wish mam “ and then he immediately ran inside to fetch them all.

After he left Izanami snapped her fingers and a Yokai member came out from her shadow. The yokai member knelt on one knee and bowed quietly waiting for Izanami’s orders.

“ Go and make sure none of the protesters come near the park and disturb my playdate with Naruto. It would be troublesome if those guys came and bothered me when I’m at the park. “Izanami said.

“ As you wish Matriarch, “ the yokai member said she disappeared into the shadows again.

After the yokai member disappeared Izanami stretched her body a bit. Honestly, she was a bit tired after all the scheming and plotting. So Naruto’s suggestion of going to the park was a welcome one. Even she liked to relax after a long day.

‘ I wonder what Kiyomi is doing now. She might be busy since everyone must be deployed to find Danzo. Speaking of Danzo, I need to find a good opportunity to secretly reveal his hiding spot. ‘ Izanami thought.

‘ Well, I will just leave it to Nanami to deal with it. That girl has endured long enough and it’s time for her to take revenge. ‘ Izanami thought as she left the room.

~ Uchiha clan clan meeting room ~

“ So patriarch, what do you propose we do now? Do we support the new Hokage? “ one of the elders asked Fugaku.

After the whole fiasco at the Hokage office, everyone returned to their respective clans to relay the information on what happened.

Although everyone at that agreed to Tsunade’s ascension as the Hokage some were still dissatisfied. Like the Uchiha clan who always wanted to have a Hokage from their line.

“ is that something to talk about we should naturally oppose her. If she were to become Hokage there would be three Senjus who became Hokage. How could allow another Senju to become a Hokage? I say we should select one from our clan to be the Hokage. “ an elder from the radical faction said arrogantly.

“ I say we forget about this matter for now. If we failed to capture Danzo, forget about being Hokage, even living in Konoha would be a pipe dream. “ one of the elders from the opposite faction said.

“ huh do you truly think we would lose to the World Bank? That thought itself is absurd. We are the strongest hidden village. We have battled every other ninja village together and still emerged victorious. So how could we lose to a bank that is just run by a bunch of civilians. “ the radical elder said with disdain.

And so an argument erupted. Both sides refused to submit to the other. But before everything escalated to a full-blown fight Fugaku finally spoke, “ That is enough. All of you shut up “. With his full aura released and Three Tomoe Sharingan opened he managed to silence the crowd.

He looked at everyone and said, “We will not oppose Tsunnade’s ascension. As the peace faction said, now is not the time to fight for the Hokage position. If tried to show any opposition that would worsen the relations we have with Konoha.

And besides, isn’t this a wonderful opportunity? For the last few years, Danzo Shimura and the others tried to suppress by doing many despicable things.

They assassinated our clan geniuses and forced us to go away from our ancestral land. After all these actions fate is finally on our side.

The higher-ups agreed that every ninja would put everything away and search for Danzo Shimura. Their only requirement was to bring him alive or half-dead. So if one of our men found him first the village wouldn’t mind us beating some sense to him “ Fugaku said with a cold smile.

Similar smiles began to appear on the rest of the people. They could get what Fugaku was hinting at. Everyone here knows that almost all the problems they get are because of Danzo. So they wouldn’t mind uniting against him.

Itachi, who was also in the meeting room, looked at everyone with a blank look. ‘ It seems like I would be able to avenge Shisui sooner than I expected. ‘ he thought as his eyes flashed with the Mangekyou pattern. Thankfully everyone was too excited to notice it.

Yes unlike in the future Itachi who had to let go of his emotions of revenge for his brother’s safety the Itachi now is brimming with killing intent for Danzo. It is because of him that he has lost his best friend.

So the person who wanted to torture Danzo the most is undoubtedly Itachi. And it just so happens that he had the perfect technique to use on Danzo.
