After leaving Parallel World 2, Lux arrived in Parallel World 4.
On the side of Parallel World 4.
Five days had passed since Minato killed the Fourth Raikage, defeated Kumogakure, and forced them to sign a peace treaty.
Two days ago.
Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato led Konoha's main forces and returned to the village in triumph.
This great victory certainly boosted Konoha's montum. On the day of his return, almost everyone in the village lined the streets to welco him, creating a festive atmosphere.
Minato's reputation had nearly reached its peak, and there was no one in the village who could shake it even a little.
After this battle, Kumogakure also signed a significant compensation agreent with Konoha.
With such compensation, in the following period, the families of many martyrs in Konoha who were injured or even killed in battle could receive substantial pensions, and they no longer had to worry about missions and livelihood issues.
Even Konoha itself could use the surplus to repair the village, improve welfare, restore production capacity, and promote economic developnt.
This could further weaken Kumogakure, intensify its internal conflicts, and greatly enhance Konoha's prestige and sovereignty.
This is the real benefit of war compensation.
The premise of it all is to defeat the opponent!
If defeated, it would truly be Konoha that would fall into the fire originating from the water.
At the sa ti, the temporary forces led by Uchiha Fugaku also successfully destroyed the Land of Rain and Agakure Village, bringing back a large amount of money and materials.
The entire Konoha Village was filled with cheers and excitent.
With these achievents and the many victory cakes being shared, the perception of the village and the reputation of the Uchiha Clan quickly changed.
The public hatred caused by the previous Kyuubi Rebellion also quickly faded away.
Many villagers even began to praise Fugaku. After all, recently there were rumors from high-ranking officials.
Claims: The Kyuubi Rebellion was actually planned by Agakure! That's why they quickly launched a stealth attack on Konoha after the Kyuubi Rebellion in an attempt to undermine Konoha and take revenge. Now, with a definite target of hatred, the ninjas who had lost their loved ones naturally no longer harbored such hostility towards the Uchiha.
On the contrary, they focused all their hatred on Agakure.
There was nothing we could do about that. Unless everyone who died could be resurrected, even soone as strong as Minato would not be able to eliminate this hatred.
Being able to transfer hatred from internal to external was already the best option.
But overall, the victory in war and the distribution of compensation resources put Konoha in a state of overflowing excitent.
However, there were those who were happy and those who were sad.
There were also so clans and ninjas who were not happy at all.
The first to bear the brunt were the first-generation ninjas who fought against Agakure forces and died due to Danzo's reckless orders.
The leaders among them were naturally the Ino-Shika-Cho clan.
Although these three clans were not as strong as the Uchiha, Hyuga, Sarutobi, and other major clans in Konoha, they remained the backbone of the ninja clans in Konoha and had contributed greatly to the overall developnt of Konoha.
Now, the heads of the three clans, who had just ascended to the throne of the younger generation, had all died in that battle.
Whatever happened, a reasonable explanation was needed.
They did not think of executing Danzo directly. After all, it was Agakure that killed the three clan heads.
But they never wanted to make it easy for Danzo!
At the very least, punish him severely!
But who would have thought Danzo would actually flee!
Five nights ago, under the guise of his fanatical loyalists, he had actually defected to Konoha!
This ti, it could be said to have stirred up a hornet's nest.
All the ninja clans voiced their condemnation of him. Not only did they besiege the entire Shimura Clan, but they also firmly demanded that Danzo be recaptured and even that the traitor be killed!
After all, in the ninja world, betraying the village is a serious cri!
Even more serious than the previous defeat.
For a mont, Minato and the others were in a dilemma.
❀❀❀
At this mont, at Minato's house.
Minato, Jiraiya, and Fugaku were all gathered.
As for the other two high-ranking officials, Orochimaru was still frantically researching, and Tsunade was still at the casino.
"Sorry, I invited you here now."
"Fugaku, have you had dinner? Kushina is preparing it; do you want so too?"
Fugaku raised an eyebrow and quickly shook his head: "No, I've already eaten."
Jiraiya guessed sothing and smiled: "Don't worry, Kushina's cooking is much better than before."
"Really?"
"Hahaha! Although there's still room for improvent, she can't kill anyone anymore! I don't know how Minato managed to eat before."
Minato hurriedly explained: "Ssst – try to be as calm as possible."
"Hahaha! It's okay. It doesn't matter if Kushina hears it."
"By the way, Minato, what's going on with you?"
Jiraiya was still very cheerful.
Now that there was no more mission to find the Child of Prophecy, he was completely free, as if he had been itching for a long ti.
"Today, the Ino-Shika-Cho clan ca to demand again. They requested the issuance of a wanted order, to pursue Danzo, and to punish him severely."
"Do you think Danzo is really wanted?"
Minato said a bit hesitantly.
"Ah? You can decide sothing like this directly; why bother asking? Minato, you are the Hokage now!"
Jiraiya spread his arms, showing no awareness as the new high-ranking official in Konoha.
Despite his irresponsible appearance, at least there was no need to worry that 'Konoha Sannin' would be greedy for power and fight for authority.
"It is true that you can decide this matter. But to make the act more realistic, I also suggest issuing a wanted order and officially classifying Danzo as a traitor ninja!"
Fugaku agreed, stating that he had no selfish motives at all and that it was definitely not for revenge against Danzo.
He was just responding from Konoha's perspective.
Of course, his heart still felt a bit happy!
WHOOSH
Lux stepped forward and appeared in the conference room.
"Sir!"
Several people were very excited and greeted each other.
Lux smiled and said frankly: "What Minato is worried about is not Danzo himself, but the root ninjas under him, right?"
Minato nodded in response: "Yes."
In fact, the wanted order in the na of the Hokage had already been signed and could be sent at any ti.
However, it was best to ask for opinions on whether it should be published or not.
After all, Minato knew that Old Danzo's defection was a result of sending Tobirama to Sunagakure as an undercover agent.
Moreover, Danzo had been deeply involved in that village for years and had a significant influence.
Especially the root, over the years they had nurtured many soldiers loyal to Danzo, so of whom idolized Danzo to the point of deviation.
Even Danzo himself might not be able to turn them back.
Previously, due to the pressure of war, most of the root ninjas were sent by Danzo to the front lines of the war with Kumogakure.
Now that the war was over, the main forces had returned.
These root ninjas suddenly found their roots missing! And Danzo had also defected without reason!
They had only followed orders to kill since they were young. They would surely fall into confusion and chaos, and even show signs of anxiety.
So minor conflicts occurred with a few ninjas led by Ino-Shika-Cho.
If the wanted order for Danzo were issued directly, there was no guarantee that those ninjas would not cause chaos.
They might even mistakenly believe that Danzo had truly defected and follow him out of the village.
This was what made Minato headache.
"Indeed. These almost pathological root ninjas are indeed causing trouble... Where are they?"
Jiraiya asked with a frown.
Minato said: "Most of them are being monitored by Anbu ninjas. But Anbu is short-staffed and cannot take care of all of them."
A large number of original Anbu were killed in the Third Ninja World War, while others died in the Kyuubi Rebellion.
Now, ANBU was almost completely deactivated and severely understaffed.
Overall, Anbu was even weaker than the root and could not be monitored at all.
"What if we kill them all?"
Fugaku suggested with a flat expression.
A few people looked to the side.
He truly was the great leader of the Uchiha Clan!
