Scheming

When she was done she handed the papers and envelope back to me and proceeded to destroy the surroundings to work out her anger. I didn't interfere as I knew that she needed to be as calm as possible when we actually move to deal with Danzo. The mans list of crimes was practically a checklist of laws both across the land and of the village that he broke. If I hadn't known any better I would have sworn the man was trying to break as many laws and rules as humanly possible.-

Forbidden research, graverobbing, inciting war, assassination, the Uchiha massacre, the Senju massacre. Oh yes that last one came as a big surprise but apparently the man had used the last two wars to whittle those with Senju blood down until they were practically extinct. It was common knowledge that the Senju clan had stopped using the name Senju after intermarrying with the citizens and other clans of the village. As there were no records of these now differently named peoples relation to the Senju clan many, myself included assumed that they were everywhere in the village just you know secretly.-Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Unfortunately this was simply not true it turned out as Danzo tracked them down by genealogy and used them as cannon fodder in the wars to wipe out the clan. Unlike the Uchiha clan that were admittedly in the process of turning traitor the Senju clan was definitely not. With the addition to some of his other "feats" it became clear why he did this. The man wanted the village to be weak or to be more accurate weak enough for him to control. Danzo had a history of killing or being related to the death of anyone that showed too much talent or potential.-

The white fang, Shisui, the Senju and Uchiha clans, Dan Kato, and the list goes on and on. Knowing this it came as little surprise why he wanted me dead, I was too talented. Hell the only reason he was having trouble pulling it off was because I was too reclusive and not really ambitious in the standard way. Most shinobi want to be recognized across the land or to become Hokage or some other ambitious goal which means they regularly took mission outside the village to prove themselves, i didn't do that.-

I spent large amounts of my time holed up training and keeping an ear out for rumors of chakra beasts I can add to my collection. This severely limits the amount of things he can do to try and kill me without directly showing that he was trying to kill me. He couldn't use rumors because I didn't give a fuck about my reputation and I verified each rumor of a chakra beast extensively before even considering following up. He also couldn't use the mandatory missions per month rule either as I filled my quota with medical missions and those NEVER stopped coming.-

Assassination was also not very feasible since I was damn near impossible to find and way way harder to actually kill. I honestly had to be the most frustrating target he ever had to try and get rid of. Now though he was in for a very bad time as once she calmed down my sensei and I began to plan how we were going to catch him.

"Sounds like you'd be a better Hokage than me from the looks of it." she said teasingly.

I shuddered at the thought "Not a chance in hell you'd ever see me holding that office. I'll take being a hermit thank you very much." I said honestly.

"I had the same thought once and yet here we are." she pointed out.

"The difference is that you are willing to accept the office because of the need while I would make myself impossible to find if they tried to stuff me into that chair. Leadings not for me, never needed it , don't want it." I said honestly.

"How about a position as a Jonin sensei?" she asked with a mischievous look.-

"First I'm not even a Jonin and before you say anything I am aware that no one would argue if I got that title but the point still stands. Second I would be the worst sensei ever, you've seen my training so you know that I would be absolutely hated by any students you tried to give me. Finally I am sort of in the middle of developing a new technique and don't have time to spare on kids who don't know left from right." I said seriously.
