In Naruto: Reborn with a Chat Group-Chapter 115 - : I Always Have You In My Heart, Hiruzen

[Makoto Ito: So what if they find out? At worst, Danzo will try to gouge my eyes out.]

[But unlike a certain brainwashed fool, I won't go around revealing my Mangekyo Sharingan and its abilities! Even if they somehow figure it out, I'll deal with that bandaged bandit myself. Grandpa Second can help me handle my teacher.]

[Uchiha Shisui: Why do I feel like that was aimed at me? Hahaha....Maybe I'm just imagining things.]

[Makoto Ito: No, no, that was definitely about you. Seriously, who in their right mind would tell people about their Mangekyo Sharingan? And to Danzo of all people?]

[Uchiha Shisui:....]

[Uchiha Madara: Damn it, just thinking about it makes my blood boil. Such a powerful ability wasted on a clueless fool.]

[Uchiha Shisui: Ancestor! I....sigh....!]

[Uchiha Madara: I don't get it. What were you even thinking, telling Danzo and the others about your Mangekyo abilities?]

[You said you wanted the Uchiha to be fully accepted into the village. Fine, let's assume that was a noble goal.]

[But with the Heavenly Distinguished Gods, you could have directly controlled Fugaku or other high-ranking Uchiha, hell, even the Hokage himself. You could've accomplished your goal in a single move! Why complicate things?]

[Uchiha Shisui: I... I just didn't think that way at the time...]

[Makoto Ito: No, it's not that you didn't think. It's that you couldn't think. You were just a brainwashed fool.]

[Uchiha Izuna: Sigh....I guess he traded his brain for talent.]

[Senju Tobirama: What a damn waste! Shisui was a once-in-a-generation genius, and yet he ended up like this? The more I think about it, the angrier I get! That damn monkey!]

[I want to see how he handles this. Will he finally do something about Danzo, or will he just keep looking the other way?]

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office, Hiruzen didn't bother questioning whether Makoto's story was true or not. The facts were right in front of him, Danzo had sent his men to attack his student.

This wasn't the first time Hiruzen had warned Danzo to stop overstepping his bounds, but that man never seemed to listen.

Just then, the sound of steady footsteps echoed in the hallway, followed by the tap of a cane hitting the floor. Moments later, the door creaked open, revealing an aged, grim-faced man.

Danzo stepped inside, his expression cold. "Hiruzen, what is it? I'm busy. I have more important matters to handle."

His eyes didn't even flicker toward the three dead Root operatives lying on the floor, as if they weren't even there.

Hiruzen met Danzo's gaze, then glanced down at the corpses. His tone was calm, but there was a dangerous edge to it. "Danzo, don't you think you owe me an explanation?"

Danzo didn't even spare a glance at the three lifeless bodies on the floor. Instead, he raised an eyebrow and asked in a casual tone, "Oh? What happened here? Why are there Root ninjas lying around?"

He finally glanced at the corpses, then looked back at Hiruzen, his expression indifferent.

"Could it be that enemy ninjas infiltrated the village? Are you calling me here just to collect the bodies? If that's the case, then I'll be on my way. I've got more important things to deal with."

Hiruzen's patience snapped after hearing his words. "Shut up, Danzo! I told you more than once. Stay away from Makoto! He is my student!"

"But look at what you've done! You actually sent Root operatives to attack him. You clearly don't take me seriously at all!"

Danzo strolled over to a chair and sat down as if he owned the place.

"Hahaha! When have I ever not taken you seriously? I always have you in my heart" he coughed lightly as he correct his words.

"Ahem, I mean, I've always respected you as Hokage. From the bottom of my heart."

Hiruzen's glare darkened.

"Danzo! Don't try to change the subject. Tell me exactly what happened. Now!"

Danzo scoffed and crossed his arms. "Hmph. I have nothing to explain! Everything I do is for the good of Konoha!"

[Senju Tobirama: For Konoha? I almost threw up!]

[Uchiha Izuna: He keeps saying for Konoha... Is he some kind of genius at destroying Konoha for Konoha?]

[Uchiha Madara: Is this guy actually a spy? Sent from another village to tear Konoha apart from the inside?]

[Hyuga Hizashi: That actually sounds believable!]

[Senju Tobirama: I'm not an idiot to take in a spy as my student. He's definitely from Konoha. He's just insufferable]

[Namikaze Minato: But I really don't get it. Why does he keep doing this?]

Danzo, oblivious to everything, repeated himself loudly. "Everything I've done has been for Konoha!"

[Namikaze Minato: .....did he just answer my question? Is this some kind of telepathic connection?]

Hiruzen clenched his fists, his anger boiling over.

"Danzo! I am the Hokage!"

Danzo sneered. "Hiruzen, you'll regret this!"

And with that, he turned on his heel and walked out.

After all, why should he worry?

No matter how many times Hiruzen called him in, the pattern was always the same. A few harsh words, a little scolding, and then everything would go back to normal.

This was just another routine. He'd walk out, cool off for a bit, and then get back to doing whatever he wanted.

That's how it had always been.

And he was sure it would be the same this time too.

Sparky's Note: By the way, last week, we actually hit #1 in the power rankings!

Like... I never expected us to be ahead of that MHA fanfic, especially considering how good it is.

And on top of that, that one's an original, while this is just a translation.

I know firsthand how hard it is to write a novel since I've written a few myself, so seeing this happen is just insane.

Oh, and we also passed 4 million views and made it into the top 200 in the all-time collection rankings.

LET'S GOOOOOO!

A new week has begun! Keep those power stones coming, and I'll drop bonus Chapters for you all!
