Kazuki had no idea that Hiruzen and the others were already considering him becoming Hokage and Uchiha clan head.
At this mont, he was tornted by countless bills to no end. He had indeed studied these before, but he had never worked as an accountant. Moreover, even an accountant would go crazy if they ca to Konoha, as he needed to audit the entire Konoha's bills from the past few years.
This ant that Konoha's financial information was undefended against him, but at the sa ti, this was also a major undertaking. Kazuki even felt that going to the front line and defeating Sunagakure and Iwagakure would be easier than this.
He wondered how painful it was for accountants to audit accounts at the end of the year. Just a single decimal point error, could be enough to make soone completely collapse.
Kazuki naturally wouldn't collapse to that extent. If his ntal strength wasn't incredibly powerful now, and his mind much more flexible, he might really have broken down. However, even the smartest brain couldn't handle so many bills, which forced Kazuki to dedicate more energy to reviewing them.
Then, Hiruzen was surprised to find that Konoha seed unusually peaceful for the next period of ti. In other words, as long as Kazuki didn't cause trouble, Konoha was relatively peaceful. Of course, this couldn't be blad on Kazuki, as these issues inherently existed, and Kazuki rely uncovered them.
"Kazuki, what have you been doing lately?"
Kazuki had been leaving early and returning late for two consecutive months.
One day, he ca to Mito's place for a al, and Kushina couldn't help but ask.
Previously, Kushina had asked Mikoto, but even Mikoto didn't know what Kazuki was doing.
Kushina had originally thought that as long as Kazuki returned to Konoha, she could be with him every day. However, Kazuki was elusive. Besides occasionally coming to Mito's place for als, he was nowhere to be found.
What about the promise to learn Sealing Jutsu with Mito?
Mito seed to know sothing, but when Kushina asked, she only told her that Kazuki had very important things to do and that Kushina should not disturb him.
But Kushina could clearly sense that Kazuki's condition was not very good. His spirit was extrely fatigued, as if he had to fight at least several battles every day with historical powerhouses.
"Sorry, it's a secret, Kushina. I think you can understand."
Kazuki gently rubbed Kushina's head and said softly, "What I can tell you is that once this matter is over, Konoha's entire structure will undergo trendous changes."
"There's such a thing?"
Kushina furrowed her face. She wanted to persuade Kazuki about sothing, but in the end, she couldn't say anything.
Mito had told her that won should give n more freedom and not make them feel annoyed.
"Actually, you can take your ti. There's no need to rush, just investigate this matter before the war ends." Mito put down her bowl at this mont and spoke earnestly to Kazuki.
Kazuki had naturally told Mito about Danzo. Of course, he didn't hide his dissatisfaction with Danzo, telling Mito about Danzo's actions against him.
For a living fossil like Mito, these things could not be hidden from her at all, so it was better to just tell her everything.
Kazuki was montarily startled by the words, then quickly understood what Mito ant. Before the Iwagakure battlefield ends, Hiruzen will not rashly let Danzo return.
In fact, even the current evidence alone could bring down Danzo, but executing him would be difficult. At most, he would be imprisoned like Homura.
Of course, the Shimura Clan would be the ones to suffer in the end, possibly having to take responsibility for Danzo's actions, returning all the supplies he had embezzled, or even double the amount.
But if the Shimura Clan suffered, would Danzo be upset?
After carefully investigating the Shimura Clan's affairs, Kazuki realized that Danzo was a ruthless person. After becoming the Hokage's aide, he didn't seek any benefits for the Shimura Clan. Instead, he had been bleeding them dry. Early Root mbers were all from the Shimura Clan.
A few years ago, Root suffered heavy losses on the Land of Whirlpools battlefield. Afterwards, in order to help Root recover quickly, Danzo again brought a large number of Shimura clan mbers into Root.
On the surface, Root seed similar to the Military Police Force, but in reality, they were completely different.
Even if it's the Shimura Clan, do you think Danzo would treat these people as humans?
Never overestimate Danzo's character. He is an extrely self-serving person and a standard ninja.
In Danzo's mind, everything he did was for Konoha, even his own clansn could be sacrificed. He wouldn't think about how despicable he was, nor did he believe he had done anything wrong.
His teacher, Tobirama, could sacrifice the Senju Clan, even disbanding it, fearing that the Senju Clan would beco too large, leading to conflict between the Senju Clan and the Hokage's authority.
The Hokage could not be hereditary within the Senju Clan. If the Senju Clan existed, it would eventually co into conflict with the Hokage.
After the Senju Clan disbanded, the Hokage position was smoothly passed down.
However, Hiruzen did not disband the Sarutobi Clan, but Danzo, although he did not beco Hokage, still weakened his own clan. Only he was truly good for Konoha. Therefore, the misfortune of the Shimura Clan was nothing to Danzo.
To make Danzo despair, he must completely lose the possibility of becoming Hokage, and then let Konoha continuously grow stronger under Kazuki's hand. At the sa ti, Danzo also needs to be continuously attacked in terms of power and prestige.
And if Danzo were only brought down for embezzling supplies, he would instead feel that they were making a fuss, that they were politically persecuting him, and that everything he did was for Konoha, and that it was better to give the money to him to use than to use it elsewhere.
