124: Chapter 124 Danzo's Conspiracy"I have told me many times about Shizune, whom you are worried about!" Tsunade said lightly.
She didn't expect that Shizune told these two old guys about the matter because she was worried about Naruto's safety.
"Then I announce that in order to ensure Naruto's safety, we need to deploy another ninja to complete Kakashi's four-man team, and then strengthen the surveillance and protection of Naruto!" Mitomon En announced.
"Also, the number of tasks assigned to him should be reduced as much as possible, and the scope of his activities should be strictly limited!" added Utane Koharu.
"You have no objection, right?Tsunade." Mitomon En said.
Tsunade frowned, "Since it was Shizune who revealed the news to the two of you, then she should have told you my attitude as well!"
Tsunade paused at this point.
"No!" Tsunade said firmly.
"Huh?" Mizuto Menyan was stunned, as if they didn't expect Tsunade to not give them any face at all.
"Tsunade, Naruto is not an ordinary child, he is a Jinchuriki!" Utane Koharu emphasized.
"Originally, he should not be allowed to leave the village and should be kept under strict surveillance.Now this is already a big concession!" Mitomon Yan shouted.
"I can agree to the four-man team, but I will never allow his freedom to be restricted!Don't forget, Akatsuki will never give up on capturing the tailed beasts, and one day they will come to the village!Don't forget the lesson of Gaara, the Sand Ninja!" Tsunade said.
"Do you want Akatsuki to move the battlefield inside Konoha Village?If Naruto is carrying out the mission outside, they will not be able to quickly find out Naruto's whereabouts!" Tsunade tried to use this reason to convince the two.
"Then can you guarantee that Naruto will not be defeated by Akatsuki?Can you guarantee that Akatsuki, after obtaining the Nine-Tails, will not attack Konoha?" Mitomon En asked loudly.
"Naruto will never be defeated.With his talent, he will definitely become one of the pillars of Konoha in the future!Besides, don't forget that he is the son of the Fourth Hokage.They father and son have contributed so much to Konoha.Is this how you treat the hero of Konoha?" Tsunade couldn't suppress her anger and asked loudly.
"What if you make a wrong judgment?" Utane Koharu's attitude softened.
"If I make a wrong judgment, as the Fifth Hokage, I will be the first to risk my life to protect Konoha!" Tsunade said firmly.
Shizune was now completely impressed by Tsunade and no longer had any intention of stopping Naruto from going out.
"I understand.It's up to you!But in exchange, the new members have to be arranged by us!" Mito Menyan said as a compromise.
Having said that, Tsunade had no choice but to agree.
"Danzo, come in!" Utane Koharu said to the outside.
When Tsunade heard Danzo's name, she instantly realized that what happened today must have been premeditated.
"I see!Since you're here, it seems that the new members you arranged are from the Root!" Tsunade put her hands behind her head and stretched her body.
She understood that everything that happened today was designed to place this new member in the team.
After knowing the other party's intention, Tsunade returned to her domineering and powerful female self.
"Are you the ones who decide on the two new members?" Tsunade asked calmly.
"No, just one person," Danzo replied.
"It seems that you didn't expect that Kakashi's condition would suddenly become problematic!" Tsunade sneered.
Danzo also heard Tsunade's sarcasm, but he had no reason to refute it.
"Kakashi's eyes haven't recovered from the last battle, so we need another member.And the next mission is about to begin, so it's Lady Tsunade who should be assigned here!" Shizune said.
"We didn't expect the side effects of using Kakashi's eyes to be so serious.We are considering what to do!" Tsunade looked at Danzo to see how he would react.
Although Kakashi's chakra was not overdrawn this time, his eyes were extremely uncomfortable due to the rash use of the Mangekyō's ability!Therefore, he was temporarily unfit to participate in high-intensity combat.
"Then choose the best one from the Anbu directly under the Hokage to join the team!" Danzo also knew that Tsunade was setting a trap for him.
"It's decided.Tsunade, you have no objection to this, right?" Mitomon En said.
"Then I will decide the candidate?"
"Danzo, do you have any objection?" Utane Koharu looked at Danzo.
Danzo turned his back to the crowd and showed no reaction.
"Then I'll make the decision myself!" Tsunade said and walked straight out of the office.
Shizune immediately hurried to catch up with Tsunade.
"Damn it, I can't swallow this!" Tsunade said gritting her teeth.
"I'm sorry, Lady Tsunade!I told the two advisors because I really didn't want Naruto to confront Akatsuki.I didn't expect it to involve such a big issue!" Shizune quickly apologized.
"I'm not talking about you!I had thought about choosing one from the Anbu directly under the Hokage, and I even had a preliminary candidate in mind.But this shouldn't have been proposed by him!Has this old fox made any other arrangements that I don't know about?" Tsunade racked her brains thinking about Danzo's possible hidden tricks.
When Tsunade returned to the office, she asked Shizune to notify the Anbu person to come over.
Soon an Anbu wearing an animal mask appeared behind Tsunade.
"You came so quickly!I called you here so that you could take Kakashi's place temporarily!"
"I feel honored to be able to complete the mission on behalf of Senior Kakashi!" said the Anbu ninja happily.
"This is not an Anbu mission, so you can take off the mask.You can use the code name Yamato during the mission!" Tsunade said.
"IGot it!" Yamato took off his mask, revealing a man who looked very reliable.
"There is also a newcomer from the Root who has been arranged to come in, so you'd better pay attention to him!" Tsunade said cautiously.
"Why is that?" Yamato asked calmly, appearing well-trained.
"This person was recommended by Danzo.He used to be the opponent of the Third Hokage!His sudden appearance this time must be to do something!"
"Are you worrying too much?" Yamato said calmly.
"Forget it, just be more careful!Go check on your teammates first?" As soon as Tsunade finished speaking, Yamato quickly slipped away.
Naruto had just picked up thirty throwing knives from Tenten's weapon shop when he received the call to assemble, which did not surprise him at all.
He knew that Tsunade would definitely agree to let him carry out the mission of Tiandi Bridge, so he told Tenten that he would come to pick up the throwing knife in three days.
In this way, he could try to carve the Flying Thunder God technique on the throwing knife while on his way to carry out the mission.
Naruto said goodbye to Hinata and headed towards the meeting place.
Although Hinata was reluctant to see Naruto leave, she did not show that little girl attitude!
She is also a truly qualified ninja!
