Even within the village, most of the villagers weren't aware of his existence.
How could this be acceptable?
After Sarutobi Hiruzen stepped down, his sudden appearance definitely met with opposition from the villagers, so he needed to wander the village more and expand his reputation.
He wanted to tell the villagers of Konoha that although he was not handsome, he was still a hero of Konoha!
Unexpectedly, he got off to a great start.
Just as he stepped out, he encountered the genius ninja Haruno Sakura. If he could get her to agree with his ideas, then he could bring her to his side.
It was simply wonderful!
The two Anbu ninjas immediately became tense.
They were monitoring Danzo to prevent him from forming factions, but they couldn't expose themselves.
Although Danzo and they both knew it well, this veil of modesty could not be torn; otherwise, everyone would be in an embarrassing and shameful situation, and even more seriously, Danzo Shimura might betray Konoha.
