Hiruzen's new hobby

Unable to stop himself from laughing, Danzo only managed to calm himself down after a while. With an evil expression on his face, he gestured to his subordinates and walked in the direction of the Hokage building.

'Hiruzen I can't change you much for a while, you are a bit too strong but the other elders and Jonins from Konoha are good targets.

Of course, Naruto, Sasuke, and the others should also be on my list.

This will be fun.'

'I should use [Observe] on myself first. This should be interesting.'

[Name: Shimura Danzo

Affiliation: Konoha/Roots

Strength: Mid-Kage level

Personality traits:

Calm (Able to deal calmly with most situations, regardless of danger)

Calculating (Calculates gains and losses before acting)

Power-hungry (Has incredibly desire for strength)

Chaotic (Likes to cause and witness chaos)

Vanity-loving (Likes to be high-key and flaunt himself)]

'Damn, at least it shows my own personality traits and not the ones from the original Danzo.

But do I really like vanity and chaos? I never noticed.'

Danzo was a bit surprised, but quickly put it to the back of his mind. He already noticed that he can't change his own personality, which he didn't plan to do anyway.

Satisfied he continued walking.

Soon he reached the door to the Hokage Office and walked in without knocking, the old Danzo in his memory didn't knock either.

Sarutobi Hiruzen who was smoking a pipe while getting paperwork done, saw Danzo walking into his office as if it was his own and felt irritated.

He then sighed tiredly, they had talked about this topic multiple times and Danzo never cared at all.

"Danzo what are you looking for me today?

"Hiruzen I want to talk to you about the funds for the Roots again."

Danzo had no special reason to talk to Hiruzen and just randomly picked one. His intention is to test how much he can change a Kage-level ninja.

"Danzo I have already told you that I will not relocate any more funds to you. If I don't know what you are planning to do with all that money."

"Hiruzen I need money to protect Konoha from the shadows and you know it."

Not wasting any more time, Danzo used [Observe] on him.

[Name: Sarutobi Hiruzen

Affiliation: Konoha

Strength: Mid-Kage level (getting weaker due to age)

Personality traits:

Affectionate (Is affectionate and indulgent towards people he likes and recognizes)

Ruthless (For the 'greater good' of Konoha, he can block his own emotions and act ruthlessly)

Perverted (Loves to observe women with his crystal ball)

Vanity-Loving (He regards his own image as very important and wants to go down in history with high prestige as the other Hokages before him)]

'So it's not an evil-Hiruzen. Although he has the ruthless trait, this is necessary as a leader, but why does this *greater good* bullshit give me Dumbledore vibes?

Ah, as expected of this old pervert. Observing the safety of Konoha my ass, using the crystal ball to spy on women.'

Danzo stopped talking and looked at Hiruzen strangely and then looked at the crystal ball.

Hiruzen noticed it and was a bit confused at first but when he noticed Danzo looking at his treasured crystal ball he immediately understood.

He felt a bit flustered as if Danzo just discovered his greatest secret. Forcefully calming himself down, he cleared his throat and ignored Danzo.

"Hiruzen, how is Konoha's safety these days? Are my Roots doing a good job?"

With a sarcastic tone, Danzo said, his eyes never leaving the crystal ball.

"Of course, really great work Danzo. I am relieved with the work ethic of the Roots."

Although Hiruzen tried to keep his facial expressions calm, you could hear slight tremors in his voice. A bit embarrassed he focused on his paperwork again.

'That's funny, let's see how much I can change him. His strength is about as high as mine, but my strength comes from Izanagi and his is dropping due to his age. He should have been High-Kage level in his youth.

With this fundamental strength difference between the two, the original Danzo never had the chance to be Hokage. It's reasonable, even if he showed more bravery to Tobirama Senju that day, he would most probably still not be appointed as Hokage.'

Danzo tried to change a personality trait completely first and got a failure message.

[Change failed due to low strength difference]

He expected this and continued, always lowering the change degree by a little bit.

[Change failed due to low strength difference] × 11

Until...

[Name: Sarutobi Hiruzen

Affiliation: Konoha

Strength: Mid-Kage level (getting weaker due to age)

Personality traits:

Affectionate (Is affectionate and indulgent towards people he likes and recognizes)

Ruthless (For the 'greater good' of Konoha, he can block his own emotions and act ruthlessly)

Perverted (Loves to observe men with his crystal ball)

Vanity-Loving (He regards his own image as very important and wants to go down in history with high prestige as the other Hokages before him)]

[Congratulations on getting 'Ninjutsu Genius']

'Hahahaha so I can change the detailed information for the personality traits too.

I changed that he likes to observe women with the crystal ball to men, now this guy is actually gay.'

Preventing anything from showing on his face, Danzo checked out the reward he got.

[Ninjutsu Genius: Can easily learn and use most ninjutsu that aren't restricted by special circumstances like space affinity.]

'This is really good, as expected of 'The Professor'. If I can get space affinity from someone, I can even learn Flying Thunder God Jutsu.'

Although Danzo would really like to see Hiruzen spying on men, he knows that Hiruzen will never do it while someone is here. So now that he fulfilled his objective, Danzo left the office.

Five minutes later.

Sarutobi Hiruzen POV

'Danzo was a little strange today, forget it who knows what he is up to again. Now...'

I cautiously checked if anyone is in my surroundings. Seeing no one is there I felt relieved and couldn't stop the perverted grin from appearing on my face.

Picking up my favorite crystal ball, I immediately used the corresponding ninjutsu and focused its sight on the male public bath.

I felt excited, after the death of my wife during the Nine-Tails Attack, I strangely lost the attraction towards any woman. Since then spying on men has become my go-to hobby to relax from the pressure I have as Hokage.

'Hohoho Ebisu I see that you have been training your body well! It's a shame that Kakashi is not in the bath today, he should be talking to his new students.'

I feel blood running down from my nostrils, but ignored it as usual. Nothing can stop me from appreciating the male body.

Author Note: So after the personality of someone is changed, they themselves won't notice a difference and they will regard it as normal.

Others will notice it though...but as the omnipotent Author, I will stop any investigations that may be the result of these changes.

Don't take this fic too seriously, it's just me having fun.
