98: a uchiha hokage

    the outfit consists of a long black coat with straight edges and tattered ends. it features silver shoulder plates with a metallic texture. the coat has red vertical stripes running along the front and is fastened with a visible silver belt buckle at the waist. the sleeves are long, and the character is wearing black gloves. the outfit also includes a high collar and black pants that match the coat. the design has no patterns, just solid black and red accents with metallic details. although he decided to forget the past, danzo wasn''t stupid enough to reveal his location to hiruzen without any backup plans.

    if hiruzen decided to betray him again danzo would run towards the land of rain to seek refuge without any hesitation. with all the flavours he had done to hanzo that old man would not betray me.

    this is also one of the reasons he made his secret base near the border. if anything went wrong he could escape at any time.

    thankfully hiruzen didn''t disappoint him this time as he agreed to cooperate with him. and not only that he even sent some funds as a sign of goodwill.

    and it was these funds that allowed danzo to build his new secret base underground.

    and in the past few months, he and hiruzen managed to gather a small enough manpower to replace the root ninjas.

    with them using tsunade''s mission of killing missing nin as a cover he and hiruzen managed to capture a few missing nin and brainwashed them to become his new root ninjas. although their capabilities are not worth mentioning it is better than nothing.

    although the progress was slow but danzo was confident enough that in a few years, he could make up his army of root ninjas.

    and his confidence rose even more when he heard about the auction house that was happening in konoha. if he could get some interesting artefacts then his root army would be stronger than ever.

    that is why he ordered one of his sleeper agents to go to the auction house and buy some interesting trinkets in his place. as for the money of course he ordered some of his men to go rob some villages and also asked for some from hiruzen who didn’t mind sponsoring him.

    he even went out of his way to order some of his men to go to the shimura clan and threatened them to support his agents. danzo knew that apart from submitting to him there is no way for the shimura clan to survive in konoha. and even if they wanted to be independent they could only survive as a small clan and give up many of the privileges they have.

    but how could they who used to live like kings give up their privileges so easily? but they couldn’t go against tsunade as she alone could annihilate their entire clan so their only option was to submit to danzo.

    now all he needs to wait is for his men to send the artifacts he bought so that he can continue with his plan. danzo thought as he began to dream about the future where he would once again regain all his authority and become the hero of konoha after driving away that traitorous bitch.

    “what are those rights specifically, “ hiruzen asked getting a bad feeling. the police department is the only department that the hokage has the least control over. but it is also the department that the hokage needs to pay extra attention to.

    this department was one of the many ways senju toborama used to control the uchiha clan while also ensuring the safety of the village. so any decision concerning the police department needs to be taken very seriously.

    “ the rights the police department has over accepting new members. now the few clans who won the bid can appoint a fixed number of their selected members to work as police department personnel. “ hisoka explained.

    hearing his words hiruzen had an ugly expression. he knew perfectly well what this decision would ensure. from today onwards the police department will not be a uchiha-only place making the resentment that people would have for the police department would not be transferred to the uchiha clan.

    not only that with other clan members working under the uchiha clan the tension and resistance they have against the uchiha clan would gradually disappear allowing the uchiha clan to really integrate into the village.

    if this continued in just a few years they would be a uchiha as a hokage.

    ‘ i need to meet tsunade no i need to meet danzo, konoha should never have a uchiha as a hokage. ‘ hiruzen thought gloomily.
