If Asahi were here, he would not be able to resist spitting at Hiruzen Sarutobi's face.
Not to mention that Might Dai is now unable to become a ninja. Even if he could still be a ninja, what kind of nature do the Might family members possess? They simply don't use ninjutsu and genjutsu.
And what about your Scroll of Seal? If I remember correctly, the jutsu recorded in the Scroll of Seal should be all the techniques developed by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, right?
Are there any techniques developed by him that the Might family father and son can practice?
If you put it this way, you might as well just give them money, houses, or something. At least they can use those things.
Even if Asahi is not here, replace Might Dai with an ordinary person in this position, and they would still need to consider it.
But the Might family members are not ordinary people. Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, Might Dai, without saying a word, directly agreed.
Moreover, this guy thinks that having his jutsu written into the Forbidden Scroll is a good thing. He even took the initiative to lessen Hiruzen Sarutobi's bargaining chips.
"All right, Hokage-sama, I agree. But we don't need the jutsu in the Scroll of Seal. Neither I nor Guy can use them."
Maybe fools do have their luck. Seeing Might Dai's contented appearance, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a bit embarrassed. So, he took the initiative to say:
"This won't do. The village can't just take your things for free. Hmm, how about this—write down this jutsu for now. If you or Guy ever need it in the future, just let us know. This Jutsu isn't restricted in terms of learning targets!"
With the last sentence, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already made a huge concession.
After all, in case the Might family wants to pass this technique to an opposing village...
Well, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't agree to that.
"But..."
Might Dai wanted to say something more, but before he could speak, Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted him directly.
"I know that Guy is still young. When he grows up and has a wife and children, this might come in handy."
Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, Might Dai pondered carefully. It seems like there is some truth to it.
Later, if Guy's children can learn ninjutsu, having such an opportunity would be nice.
Thinking about this, Might Dai didn't refuse and agreed directly.
"In that case, thank you very much, Hokage-sama."
Unfortunately, it's a pity. Let's not even talk about whether Guy will find a wife in the future. Even if he does, his family's genes are probably not so easily changed.
Seeing that Might Dai agreed, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't keep them any longer. After informing them that the village would reward them for the ninja swords.
Regarding this, Sakumo was indifferent. After all, this was not his credit, and it had nothing to do with him.
Besides, although the Hatake clan was in decline, they weren't short of money.
But it was different for Might Dai. As an Eternal Genin in Konoha, his financial situation was very poor. Coupled with the demands of physical training, the requirements for food were too high.
If it weren't for Sakumo occasionally helping out, Guy might have suffered talent loss due to malnutrition, just like himself.
.....
With the departure of the two, the office of Hiruzen Sarutobi also fell into silence.
Hiruzen Sarutobi sat quietly in his chair, contemplating the state of the ninja world.
What he didn't notice was that in a hidden place, there were summoning animal just being reverse summon, the news of Sakumo's mission failure had been transmitted.
And it had been received by Shimura Danzo.
In the underground base of the Root division in Konoha, Danzo squinted at the intelligence in his hand.
This was the information he had just received from Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Danzo's brain was now spinning rapidly, analyzing what benefits this situation could bring him.
Hatake Sakumo.
Thinking of this person, Danzo couldn't help but furrow his brow.
As the head of the ANBU, the head of the Hatake clan, and one of Konoha's top forces, Sakumo was undoubtedly one of the most influential figures in Konoha.
Unfortunately, this influential figure, Sakumo, surprisingly stood firmly on Hiruzen Sarutobi's side, making Danzo quite uncomfortable.
Moreover, Sakumo himself was one of the popular candidates for the position of the Fourth Hokage.
Although he was not from the main line of the Hokage family and couldn't become the Hokage, he remained a significant obstacle on Danzo's path to the top.
Would Sakumo support Danzo for the position of Hokage? Obviously, that was out of the question!
So, it was time to take some action. This incident provided a perfect opportunity to undermine Sakumo's reputation.
"Root!"
With this thought, Shimura Danzo spoke up, summoning one of his subordinates.
Swish!
Instantly, a figure appeared and knelt in front of Shimura Danzo.
Without uttering a word, the figure remained quietly in a kneeling position, awaiting Danzo's instructions.
Looking at the figure before him, Shimura Danzo spoke solemnly:
"Crane, I want you to arrange for the civilians in the village to spread the news about Sakumo abandoning the mission, resulting in its failure. Tell them that due to the failure of this mission, Konoha has suffered significant losses. Remember, make sure no one suspects that I intentionally spread this information."
"Yes, Lord Danzo."
As soon as the words were spoken, the figure swiftly disappeared from the room.
From start to finish, the ninja codenamed Crane never questioned Danzo about why they had to do this.
The efficiency with which this person carried out tasks was simply extraordinary.
This is what Root ninjas are like. You don't need to know why; you just need to execute.
Danzo had his reasons for doing this, and you just had to follow orders.
As for those who couldn't comply, they had long been purged from Root.
Where did they go? Nobody knew.
With Crane's actions, a storm was slowly brewing.
...
In the afternoon, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been working for half a day, decided to go out and grab something to eat.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the Hokage's office, he noticed many people whispering and exchanging words.
Initially, he didn't pay much attention; after all, it had been a long time since he had eaten out. It was understandable that people would be excited to see him suddenly, engaging in hushed conversations.
But as he walked further, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt that things were not that simple.
Even if people were excited to see him, it shouldn't have been to this extent. Why did the villagers disperse and stop talking as soon as he approached?
Finally, a bold villager who blocked his path cleared up his confusion.
"Hokage-sama, may I ask if Lord Sakumo really abandoned the mission, leading to its failure and causing Konoha significant losses?"
