Even earlier, he had already begun to praise and kill Weasel.
The most powerful thing about Hiruzen Sarutobi is that he single-handedly controlled the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.
But he picked himself clean.
In the end, Sasuke only thought that Danzo was the real murderer.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's similar operations were carried out in the White Fang incident, the Fukoku Escape incident, and even Orochimaru's final defection.
It seems that it is all Danzo's handiwork, and the third generation is at most guilty of neglecting inspection.
But judging from the results.
The Itachi incident left Konoha without the Uchiha, this uncontrollable family.
The White Fang incident left Konoha without White Fang, the uncontrollable candidate for the Fourth Hokage.
In the replica of the Mudun Incident, the young men of the Thousand Hands Clan were almost exterminated, and the Thousand Hands Clan had no successors.
Pretending not to know, Danzo continued to study the Wood Release.
When Danzo gets the results, he can pick peaches by himself.
Perhaps there are omissions in it.
Maybe the White Fang incident was just an attempt to suppress the incident, but White Fang committed suicide as a result.
Tsunade discovered the clues about the Senju clan and ran away from Konoha.
Danzo kidnapped a large number of babies, and then put the blame on Orochimaru.
Orochimaru didn't bother to explain and defected directly.
Danzo concealed the fact that some people survived the experiment.
But these are minor problems, and these have now been resolved.
In terms of political direction, Hiruzen Sarutobi is the biggest beneficiary.
Here is Konoha's ultimate weapon, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki.
Sarutobi Hiruzen put in much more effort than anywhere else.
It sealed Naruto's identity as the son of the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato.
But he deliberately released the information that Naruto was the son of the demon fox to ordinary villagers who didn't understand anything.
Let Naruto be isolated and disliked since he was a child, without enough to eat, without warmth, and helpless.
At such a fragile time, Naruto was grateful for the small amount of care he was given.
As the last orphan of the Uzumaki clan, the son of the Fourth Hokage, he does not have any inheritance from his parents at his disposal.
Ordinary villagers may not know who Naruto is, but what about Minato's old subordinates and friends?
Are they all dead?
Of course not, but they were all prohibited from contact with Naruto by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
He needs to be the only light on Naruto's path to growth.
He needs to use the will of fire to brainwash Naruto to ensure that Naruto grows into what he wants.
In the end, he succeeded and failed.
His success lies in the fact that Naruto became the Holy Mother.
And when Konoha was in decline, he became the biggest pillar of Konoha Village, and even saved the ninja world in the end.
His failure was that Orochimaru didn't want to see him rotten anymore, so he chose to kill him.
And no matter how many Sarutobi clan members he left behind, there was no way they could compare to Naruto who saved the ninja world.
Konoha Village has indeed been extended, but it is not the extension that Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is a standard clansman. He spares no effort to develop the Sarutobi clan.
When Sarutobi Asuma was young, he gave Asuma a lot of training resources.
But Asuma chose to be a rebellious boy.
It was not until the death of the Third Hokage that Asuma truly matured.
Unfortunately, Asuma also had an accident soon.
Konohamaru is still young and has no one to guide him.
There is no one like Sarutobi Hiruzen in the Sarutobi clan who can stand up.
Otherwise, the fact that there were so many ninjas in the Sarutobi clan would never have been exposed during the Fourth War.
After Natsuki kidnapped Orochimaru, no one launched a plan to destroy Konoha.
The Third Hokage still has a high reputation among civilians.
In this case, if he retires peacefully, he can still be the same as he was in the fourth generation.
Continue to hold some power.
His old partner is still a consultant elder and still holds powerful authority in his hands.
Rather than letting the Third Hokage and these elders work behind the scenes.
It’s better to peel off the skin of the third generation and send away all these complicit elders.
He had to give up all his power to Orochimaru.
Based on Natsuki's understanding of Orochimaru, this method is, at best, just stripping the "face" of these elders.
If Orochimaru were to come, it would probably not be as simple as being "shameless".
…
Although Orochimaru's face didn't look good when he left, after returning to his laboratory.
He completely recovered. After all, this was what Xia Mu had agreed with him.
Not long after he arrived, Hongdou followed Xianglin.
"Lord Orochimaru, Senior Sister Anko has arrived."
Xianglin said happily.
Orochimaru turned around and looked up and down Anko's fat body.
Anko's eyes dodge, not daring to look at Orochimaru.
She felt that she was so fat and not good-looking at all.
"I understand, Xianglin, please go down first. If the Third Hokage comes, come and notify me."
"I know Lord Orochimaru!"
Xianglin jumped down.
Xiang Rin's Kagura Heart Eye is very useful for Orochimaru.
With this, there is no need for other guards.
"Hongdou, it seems you have thought about it."
Orochimaru didn't seem to care that Anko was fat.
Anko saw that Orochimaru didn't look disgusted, and she breathed a sigh of relief and said at the same time:
"Teacher, I was too naive before."
Orochimaru nodded with satisfaction:
"I happen to be short of people, please come to me and help me from now on."
Anko said happily: "Okay, Orochimaru-sama!"
Orochimaru walked to the nearby laboratory and waved to Anko:
"Let me check your body first."
"Let's see if it's because of the missing curse seal that you've gained weight."
Hongdou was confused one second, and was shocked the next.
He quickly ran up:
"Teacher, is it because I lost weight because I lost the curse seal?"
Orochimaru said naturally:
"That's natural. The curse seal must have energy to survive, otherwise you think you are drinking alcohol every day."
"What's the reason for overeating and eating so many desserts without gaining weight?"
Anko didn't notice at all why Orochimaru knew her living habits so well.
After she gained weight, anxiety about her figure and appearance nearly destroyed her.
Now she can't wait to change back to her original appearance.
"Teacher, is there any way? I don't want to be like this now." Hongdou said with a sad face.
Orochimaru chuckled twice: "Don't worry, let's check it first."
…
Chapter 346 Number One
After Orochimaru made an inspection.
I have an idea in my mind.
In the past, when his soul fragment was lodged in the red bean curse seal, the soul needed the body to provide nutrition.
Eating sweets can relieve the pain caused by the curse seal because the curse seal is absorbing the energy of her body.
Sweets contain more energy.
Therefore, the habit of eating sweets and overeating are all consumption of Orochimaru's soul fragments.
Otherwise, if a normal person eats so much, he will definitely gain weight.
Now that Orochimaru has extracted his soul fragments and they are no longer consumed, it is normal for Anko to be fat.
"It is indeed because of the curse seal."
"You don't consume as much now as before. If you continue to eat and drink like this, you will get fatter in the future."
After Orochimaru checked, he said this to Anko.
Hongdou asked hopefully: "Then, teacher, is there any way?"
Orochimaru said calmly: "This is normal for you. Just eat less and train more."
Hongdou said distressed and embarrassed:
"Teacher, I'm used to living like this. I'll feel very uncomfortable if I don't eat sweets."
The corner of Orochimaru's mouth curled up:
"Then I'll plant the curse seal on you again. What do you think?"
Anko’s previous curse mark was something that would cause constant pain and might make her whole body weak.
But now Hongdou sees herself so fat.
Gritting his teeth and stamping his feet:
"It's okay even if I plant the curse seal again. I really think it looks too ugly now."
After Anko finished speaking, she heard Orochimaru respond.
"Then I'll satisfy you."
Orochimaru suddenly pinched Anko's shoulders, lowered his head and bit the side of Anko's neck, exactly the same place as before.
Instantly, a sharp pain hit her, just like when Hong Dou was hit with a curse mark.
"ah…"
