In a hidden corner of Konoha.
"Danzo, get me more experiment subjects, but they can't be from the village." Orochimaru said to Danzo.
When Danzo heard Orochimaru's request, he frowned and sneered: "Don't tell me you don't know how important this research is, right?"
"Using the people from the village saves more time and effort. Their sacrifices are valuable, and Konoha will remember their sacrifices."
Orochimaru's expression did not change, and he repeated: "get me more experiment subjects, but they can't be from the village."
Danzo no longer argued this time, but he just couldn't understand Orochimaru's reason because Orochimaru had never complained about it before.
Could it be that Orochimaru had suddenly awakened the Will of Fire, and his heart was now fueled with love for the village?
"It is different now. Root has been disbanded, and I can't do as much." Danzo tried to persuade Orochimaru again.
He felt that something was wrong. Why did Orochimaru's attitude change drastically?
"My condition hasn't changed. Don't let me repeat it again." Orochimaru said coldly.
Originally, he would gladly cooperate with Danzo because Danzo could provide him a lot of things he needed.
But now, he thought that Nagasawa's help would be more significant to him, so he would pay more attention to Nagasawa's request.
Danzo had no choice but to agree, saying that he would inform Orochimaru if he got the experiment subject.
After Orochimaru left, Danzo couldn't hold back anymore and punched the desk hard, causing the desk to crack.
He realized that everything had gone south ever since that little brat Minato became the Hokage.
First, the forces outside were somehow attacked, and then because of Golden Organization, four members of Root were lost, including Tatsuma Aburame, the elite of Root.
Immediately after, Root was disbanded, and he could no longer do anything using Root's name. He had to be very careful to mobilize Root.
Now, even Orochimaru has become weird.
It was fine if he didn't think about this, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
However, even though he was angry, Danzo quickly calmed down and began to write documents.
He wanted to propose that the training team teach Six Powers to the entire Anbu.
After Root disbanded, most of Root's members became the Third Hokage's Anbu.
Therefore, if Six Powers were taught to all of Anbu, his Root could also learn it, and he would have a reason to mobilize them.
Until now, Danzo still believed that he could dethrone Minato.
Although Orochimaru was stuck with his experiment, Danzo managed to get one successful experiment subject that Orochimaru overlooked.
That was the only successful case of Hashirama's cell experiment. If he could reproduce the power of the God of Shinobi, who could stop him from becoming the Hokage?

After the last Third Hokage's Anbu fell, the fighting part of the joint training was concluded and it ended with the Fourth Hokage Anbu's victory.
The battle was quite thrilling for the Fourth Hokage's Anbu. They were overwhelmed the Third Hokage's Anbu, but in the end, Kakashi took the enemy's Commander by surprise and defeated their Commander, turning the defeat into victory.
"I see a rapidly growing team." The Third Hokage praised as the Fourth Hokage's Anbu successfully won all the events.
Although the Division he sent was not the best among the Third Hokage's Anbu, the Fourth Hokage's Anbu had only been established for less than a year.
"Since the training team is so outstanding, do you mind letting Uchiha Shisui stay in the training team to continue training?" Nagasawa used this opportunity to ask the Third Hokage.
"Oh?" the Third Hokage looked at Nagasawa.
"Shisui is doing really well in the training team. I can't bear to see him leave like this." Nagasawa explained with a smile.
Third thought about it and felt that he didn't have any problem with it, so he nodded and said, "Since Commander Nagasawa is so satisfied with Shisui, then I'll let him stay in the training team."
Although Shisui was a genius, it wasn't like he had Mangekyō Sharingan, so the Third Hokage was willing to give Shisui to Nagasawa.
However, he did not say that he would transfer Shisui to the Fourth Hokage's Anbu. Instead, he allowed Shisui to stay in the training team to train and learn.
Seeing that Third had promised Shisui to stay, Nagasawa did not care about whether he would completely transfer to the Fourth Hokage Anbu.
For him, it didn't matter as he believed that under his influence, Shisui would definitely forget the Third Hokage's Anbu and treat the training team as his home.
After the joint training was over, Nagasawa dealt with the follow-up work and left.
A few days ago, he actually sensed that there was an Uchiha Shinobi stalking Kabuto.
After thinking for a while, it was not that surprising given Itachi was the son of the Uchiha Clan's leader.
He did not expect Kabuto to get acquainted with Itachi. When Kabuto said that he befriended a kid called Uchiha Itachi, Nagasawa was also quite surprised.
For the record, it was Itachi who ended Kabuto's plan in the manga by using Izanami, forcing Kabuto to change his ways.
And because of him, these two actually became friends.
However, although he saw why the Uchiha Shinobi did it, he couldn't just overlook Uchiha Clan sending Shinobi to investigate Kabuto. Nagasawa could not pretend that he did not see it. If he did not care, then wouldn't he have to investigate him?
Investigating an Anbu Commander, what was Uchiha Clan trying to do? Coup d'etat?
If they did that, they would simply do what Danzo wanted.
In order to prevent Uchiha from acting stupid, Nagasawa decided to visit the Uchiha Clan and teach them a lesson. He also wanted to talk about Uchiha's problem with Fugaku Uchiha.
In order to show the seriousness of the problem, Nagasawa surprisingly wore Anbu's uniform.
Nagasawa did not choose to enter Uchiha Clan's territory openly, which would make this Clan suspicious.
Nagasawa chose to sneak into Fugaku Uchiha's house.
Fugaku had just returned from his work at Konoha Military Police Force. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw an Anbu wearing an Anbu uniform and a tiger-patterned mask.
Fugaku was stunned for a moment. Then, he took a deep breath and asked, "May I know why an Anbu is here?"
"What is Uchiha Clan trying to do by investigating Anbu Commander?" Nagasawa asked in a deep voice as if he was interrogating someone.
Fugaku frowned and said, "Investigating Anbu Commander? Why would Uchiha Clan do such a thing? There must be a misunderstanding?"
"Remember the white-haired boy?"
Since Nagasawa had explained it so clearly, Fugaku understood that the little boy must have something to do with Anbu Commander.
Fugaku was speechless. A kid that Itachi had befriended turned out to be related to such an influential person.
However, things had already happened. No matter how much Fugaku regretted it, it was useless. He could only explain the whole story to Nagasawa.
