Chapter 14: The subordinate is too loyal that the Boss is a bit Afraid
Akihara Kagura is a very sensible person.
Kakashi and Tenzo appeared threatening, obviously making Danzo lose face and feel aggrieved. He had to stand up and say something!
If your superior loses face in front of others, as a subordinate, you must not ignore it. You must find a way to help your superior regain face.
Only in this way
Your superior might be truly loyal to you.
This is also a workplace rule.
Kakashi's gaze sharpened as he looked at Akihara Kagura, who was seriously talking about wanting to kill someone. He couldn't help but feel a complex emotion swirling inside.
This kid...
Has already been brainwashed by Danzo.
Shimura Danzo looked at Akihara Kagura with a hint of appreciation in his eyes and didn't mind his rebellious words against the Hokage.
Whether it's the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen or the members of the Anbu, most know that the Root organization is Shimura Danzo's private army. Saying such things here didn't matter.
Just...
Don't talk nonsense in the village in the future.
"A, don't talk nonsense."
Shimura Danzo gently scolded, speaking disdainfully: "Since the Hokage has ordered you to participate in the Chunin Exams, follow the Hokage's orders and take the registration form from Kakashi!"
"A?"
This familiar code name...
Kakashi and Tenzo were stunned.
"Hmm?"
Akihara Kagura took the exam registration form from Kakashi and, seeing the two stunned people, curiously asked: "Is there something wrong with my name?"Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
After speaking, the boy seemed to remember something and added: "However, this is the name given to me by Lord Danzo, and only he can call me that."
"What a good child."
Shimura Danzo narrowed his eyes and patted the boy's head.
Although he felt something was a bit off, it also didn't seem entirely wrong. Shouldn't one trust a child when he claims loyalty? Besides, when the child spoke these words, his childish naivety made everyone present sense the respect and affection he had for Danzo.
This child...
Seems to have been overly brainwashed by Danzo.
"Wait, did the monkey only send one registration form?"
Shimura Danzo suddenly looked at Kakashi, asking: "I remember the Chunin Exams require a three-person team to participate. Which class is the monkey planning to arrange for him to join for the Chunin Exams?"
Sure enough!
Kakashi and Tenzo remained silent, walking towards the exit on their own.
Just as Kakashi was about to leave with Tenzo, he suddenly paused, turned his head back to look at the young boy, and seemed to say unintentionally: "A, this name, Lord Danzo seems to have allowed others to use it too"
"Kakashi-senpai"
Tenzo stood by, not daring to speak.
The base of the Root was silent.
Kakashi was really up to no good!
Before leaving, a casual remark from him made Akihara Kagura feel a bit troubled. He wondered whether to get angry and act spoiled towards Danzo or pretend not to hear it at all. It seemed...
Neither was appropriate.
The only appropriate...
"I've heard about it."
The young Akihara Kagura looked at the two figures standing at the end of the corridor, his childish voice still filled with bloodthirst: "The last guy called A betrayed Lord Danzo, and I will find an opportunity to kill that traitor. I am the only one."
"..."
Kakashi was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. That person is no longer A."
"Tenzo, let's go!"
Kakashi no longer said anything, leaping towards the exit.
Tenzo looked back at the old man and the young boy, and followed suit.
"Hmph..."
Shimura Danzo snorted coldly. After seeing them leave, he then spoke: "Remember, A, Kakashi was the instigator who lured the previous A to defect, and Tenzo is the traitor who betrayed the Root..."
"What!"
"Lord Danzo!"
"I should have killed them just now!"
The young boy's eyes widened in disbelief, looking at the old man and then turning to run towards the exit: "I'm going to kill them!"
"Stop!"
Shimura Danzo sternly stopped him, saying in a deep voice: "Don't be impulsive. If you encounter them outside the village in the future, find a chance to kill them secretly. Inside the village, without my order, don't lay a hand on anyone!"
Danzo finally realized something was wrong.
In the past, he could easily mock Kakashi and Tenzo; now he dared not say much more, as Akihara Kagura, would probably take action immediately after hearing it, causing a huge mess...
Luckily, he didn't say it...
Luckily, he stopped the boy...
This subordinate was too loyal, so much so that even Danzo himself was a bit afraid.
