Lord God Investigator

Naruto fell into silence, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled.

"Why are you laughing? What's so funny about this!"

Sasuke said angrily like a hedgehog.

"I'm wondering, since Danzo and Sarutobi work so well together, might they also want us to be like this when they were young? Danzo once said something similar to Sarutobi?"

Naruto smiled bitterly and said: "When they were young, their minds were not that complicated. Maybe one was sunny and the other was gloomy, but they both worked hard for the prosperity of Konoha. So the two made an agreement, one would be the light. , a shadow, each other's light and shade, helping each other, and protecting Konoha together. However, as time goes by, people's hearts are also changing, losing the innocence of youth, entering a more complex and gloomy adult world, and the original intention is no longer there."

Sasuke was stunned, not knowing how to respond to Naruto's words. The person he is today may be completely different from the person he will be in the future. Time can change everything. Soon, the original beautiful vision gradually became blurred and even distorted as time passed by, becoming beyond recognition. .

"Does the will of fire in Konoha have to be inherited like this? Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke... are always a pair. Appear, one is light, one is shadow, one is good, one is bad..."

Naruto shook his head and said: "Do you want us to follow their old path, being good friends when we were young, and then turning against each other when we get older? Sasuke, I don't want you to be a shadow in the dark and willing to be the mastermind behind my glorious image. I want you to stand in the sun with me. I can only serve as prime minister for one term at most. You can try to run for the next term. Then I will help you and assist you in the election. With your appearance and condition, you have a great advantage. Yo."

Sasuke was stunned. He didn't expect that Naruto wanted him to come to the front of the stage, become the leader of the ninja world, and stand in the light to be admired by all people.

For a pair of close friends, there is no reason for one to be the Hokage for decades while the other can only hide in the shadows. No matter how deep the friendship is, it cannot withstand the wear and tear of this huge contrast.

True friends should support each other and work together to push each other to the top of life and realize each other's ideals and life values.

The resentment in his heart gradually dissipated, and Sasuke felt that the cold fog that enveloped him suddenly dissipated, and it was as if the clouds were clearing and the sky was clear.

"In my opinion, killing Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo has no meaning for us. It is just a way to vent. After venting, it will only become more empty. For them, death is a kind of relief. This is an act of evasion that shirks responsibility and does not require true remorse.”

Naruto said slowly: "My decision is to make the results of this investigation public, and at the same time disclose all the secret files of the Anbu at the root of Konoha, so that all the darkness can be exposed to the sun!"

"This..." Sasuke couldn't accept it for a moment: "Is this appropriate? When these dirty scandals are exposed, Konoha's reputation and the public's opinions..."

“The people are deceived and that’s why they are stupid.”

Naruto said: "Danzo and Sarutobi played and deceived the Konoha villagers like fools, so the Konoha people became fools. When I was young, I was discussed and ignored by the ignorant people, and the Uchiha clan did not take action to suppress it because of the Hokage's order. This is the reason why Kyuubi is criticized by the people.

In the era of democracy, those in power can also manipulate public opinion to deceive the people and make profits. However, as the founders, we cannot set a precedent. We should try our best to set an example and create an open and fair public opinion environment at the beginning of the establishment of the new system. "

Sasuke sighed, lowered his head and remained silent.

"The issue of Sarutobi Hiruzen will be heard publicly after the new constitution is drafted and all laws are perfected."

Naruto said: "However, I guess there is no direct evidence that he colluded with Danzo. The final sentence is probably not the death penalty, but at most a prison sentence, but at his age, he will probably die in prison. Sasuke, you Is that acceptable?"

Sasuke nodded imperceptibly.

"As for Danzo, he still has some value to the village."

Naruto continued: "In today's ninja world, our strongest enemies are no longer the three major ninja villages, but the Rain Ninja Village under the control of the Akatsuki organization. I plan to go to the Rain Ninja Village to meet with the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Pei Ninja. Let's talk about it, Danzo is the ticket to enter the Rain Ninja Village. If you really want to watch him die, come with me, I guess his death will not be very comfortable."

Sasuke nodded and said, "I will definitely go!"

…

The investigation results of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura were published in major media newspapers and magazines in the ninja world, and TV stations also carried out special reports. It stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and the public opinion in the ninja world was boiling for a while.

From civilians to officials, from ordinary ninjas to the shadows of each village, everyone's reaction is different.

The villagers of Konoha were divided into two groups. Some people believed that Hiruzen Sarutobi had worked so hard and had to suffer such a disaster at such a young age. This was completely persecuted by the new top management of the Konoha Alliance. After all, Hiruzen Sarutobi was the leader of Konoha. He worked hard to protect the village for decades, and he should not be treated like this in his later years.

Others realized that they had been deceived for so long. They had mistakenly thought that the Uchiha clan was unwilling to suppress the nine-tailed fox, so they resented the Uchiha clan and made irresponsible remarks behind their backs. Now it seems that this is completely It was Hiruzen Sarutobi's responsibility. He gave the order and blocked the information from the public, which caused the public's misunderstanding of the Uchiha clan, which eventually led to the tragic genocide of the Uchiha clan and greatly weakened Konoha's strength.

The Yondaime did not need to die, but because of the assumption of "killing people to kill the heart", he was buried with the jealous Uchiha clan in vain. The truth was concealed, the orphan did not receive any preferential treatment, and the ignorant villagers actually spread the rumor that the hero became a Demon fox, the Hokage still hasn't refuted the rumors, I wonder what he is thinking!

The members of Konoha's cabinet also had different opinions. Jiraiya was the most conflicted in his heart. He really didn't want his mentor's reputation to be ruined and his life was ruined. However, the evidence presented by Naruto and Sasuke could not be false, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen He didn't really want to harm the Uchiha clan, but he gave the order, and he cannot escape the blame for the consequences.

Naruto said righteously: "It is a feudal idea to keep taboos for the venerables. There are no venerables in the new era. Under the framework of democratic politics, even if you are the prime minister, if you do something wrong while in office, you should not be blamed for being praised after you leave office." The people at the altar will knock you into the dust again! This is the people’s supervision and restriction of power!”

There are endless debates within Konoha, and the outside world thinks that Konoha Village is probably crazy. Among the three great ninja villagers, only Terumi Meisei agrees with it. She also wants to disclose the blood mist policy of the fourth generation Mizukage Yagura era. Secret files to completely eliminate some of the remaining old ideological influences in Kirigakure Village.

Tsuchikage Onoki and Raikage Ai sternly rebuked, thinking that the behavior of Konoha Village in disclosing the previous Hokage's governance mistakes was really hateful. The juniors were simply childish and unreasonable, did not understand the rules, and had no respect for the "shadow". It was simply ridiculous.

As a shadow, you must do some evil things at the expense of the small group for the sake of the village. This is also the overall situation!

What is massacre? What about being anti-human? Isn’t it for the survival of the majority? How can it be liquidated after leaving office?

…

Revealing the dark secrets of Danzo and Sarutobi, Naruto was actually motivated by public interest. When it came to revenge, he was not filled with hatred like Sasuke.

Even if his parents were really killed by Sarutobi Hiruzen's decision-making, Naruto was still a baby when he died and had never tasted the love of his parents. He didn't know who his parents were for a long time, so he didn't have the unforgettable memory after losing his parents. It hurts, but there is only loss and loneliness. Emotionally, I don't hate Sarutobi Hiruzen too much.

However, openness, fairness and impartiality, the Hokage's mistakes are the same as those of the common people, and everyone is equal. This is the basis of democracy, but it cannot set a precedent for previous leaders to be concealed or pardoned for their hard work.

In that case, being the prime minister doesn't mean that you have a golden ticket to avoid death. You can do unscrupulous and dirty things that break the bottom line. You will not be afraid of being exposed after leaving office, which means that you have no restrictions on your power.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura did some bad things because they had "no choice" for the village. Naruto also had "no choice" for the millions of people in the world to expose, criticize, and judge again in the future, so as to set a small example for future generations and be alert. Let’s talk about the principle that future democratically elected prime ministers should have a bottom line in their conduct.

Everyone is serving the public good and thinking about the overall situation. I think Sarutobi Hiruzen can also understand Naruto's mood.
