Uchiha's double pupil Sharingan, exterminates the clan and suppresses Itachi at night

Chapter 770 They gave their lives for Konoha and should feel honored.
"Wait a minute..."

As Jiraiya led the group out, they saw Hiruzen Sarutobi blocking their way. His expression turned cold and his tone became somewhat silent.

At the same time, they stopped.

Tsunade also stopped, looking warily at Hiruzen Sarutobi who was blocking her way, but his expression was exceptionally cold and stern.

As for the people who followed Zai Jiang Dun'er in their escape, upon seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen, they all hid behind the two of them in terror, fearing that Sarutobi Hiruzen would really kill them.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

Tsunade frowned and walked to a position parallel to Jiraiya, but her eyes remained fixed on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

“Little Jiraiya, just charge over there, we can sweep him away together!” Shima the Master spoke slowly, his tone somewhat solemn.

"He has a forbidden technique called the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique... It can ignore everything and seal the soul!" Jiraiya reminded him, as he didn't want to have a direct confrontation with Hiruzen Sarutobi unless absolutely necessary.

after all,

If pushed to the limit, Hiruzen Sarutobi might very well take himself down with him.

Furthermore, Hiruzen Sarutobi probably still has trump cards up his sleeve; he hasn't used his true trump cards yet.

Master Shima fell silent instantly. Although they could escape, what if their souls were actually captured? Wouldn't that be a greater loss than gain?

As Jiraiya said, it's best to be cautious for now.

"Heh...you guys are really my good students, managing to rescue these people while I was holding the Chunin Exams!" Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped to within ten meters of him, his tone unusually grave: "You've been watching me all along, haven't you!"

"That's right... I sensed something was wrong as soon as I returned to the village, and I started investigating you as soon as we discovered the missing persons!" Tsunade looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "I didn't expect it was really you who did this?"

"They actually used ordinary civilians to perform evil ninjutsu!" Tsunade was furious, venting all the anger she had accumulated over the past few days.

"Evil ninjutsu? You don't understand... Everything I'm doing now is for Konoha, for the ninja world!" Hiruzen Sarutobi remained unconvinced by Tsunade's questioning.

His expression was surprisingly solemn.

Even now, he speaks with such arrogance and complacency, still lost in his own ambitions.

"For the sake of the ninja world... I think you're doing it for yourself!" Tsunade directly exposed Hiruzen Sarutobi's pretense: "You're afraid that the Uchiha clan is growing stronger, afraid that you'll lose your position as Hokage!"

“You’re half right. I can abdicate, but I want to choose a good leader for Konoha!” Hiruzen Sarutobi continued, “The Uchiha clan is an evil clan. I don’t trust them with Konoha and I will never let them take charge of it. They will lead Konoha to decline!”

"Tsunade, I think you should agree with me. The first person to say that the Uchiha were an evil clan was your great-grandfather, Tobirama Senju!"

Did the Uchiha clan lead Konoha to decline?

Tsunade believed that Hiruzen Sarutobi was still engrossed in his own plans. The changes in the Uchiha clan were already visible to everyone. If Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't continue to target the Uchiha clan, the Uchiha members probably wouldn't want to compete for the Hokage position.

Now, she knows too many inside stories, even that Itachi Uchiha's defection from Konoha was to carry out a plan to destroy the Uchiha clan, and the leaders of that plan were Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura.

How could the Uchiha clan not be on guard?
"Even the Hokage can make mistakes. My great-grandfather said those things because of the war!" Tsunade's eyes were serious. "Just like you, you've already gone down the wrong path. Stop now... If you stop, your sins will be lighter!"

"Heh... a lighter sin? What sins have I committed? Everything I've done is for Konoha!" Hiruzen Sarutobi sneered, but then his eyes turned cold and sharp: "I gave you a chance. If you left these people behind, we would still be master and disciple. Otherwise..." Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood. If Tsunade and the others wanted to oppose him, then they could only blame him for not showing respect for their master-disciple relationship.

moment,

Everyone became alert.

"You weren't like this before. I didn't expect you to have changed so much?" Jiraiya frowned as he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, his expression grave. "Your actions have already been exposed. Are you still going to remain stubbornly ignorant?"

"let it go!"

"As long as you admit your mistake, the villagers will forgive you!"

Jiraiya still wanted to persuade him, after all, even at this point, Hiruzen Sarutobi still wanted the master and disciple to hide the truth.

but.

How could the truth possibly remain hidden forever?
“I’ve said it before, I did nothing wrong. I did it for Konoha. They should understand my good intentions!” Hiruzen Sarutobi said, then pointed to the villagers behind Jiraiya who had just been rescued: “They should also be happy and honored to be sacrificed for the Impure World Reincarnation, because their sacrifice will bring prosperity to Konoha in the future!”

Those behind Hiruzen Sarutobi trembled involuntarily when he pointed at them, clearly out of fear.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, you have fallen into demonic possession," Jiraiya said, this time not even addressing his master, but continuing, "You have no right to decide their life or death; they are free people!"

"The reason the First Hokage sealed away the Impure World Reincarnation technique was so that people with similar ideas to you could appear later!"

"If you arbitrarily decide someone's life or death, how are you any different from a demon?"

Jiraiya was also disappointed. Hiruzen Sarutobi had almost no chance of turning back, because he had become possessed by a demon and was stubbornly unrepentant.

"Don't give me any grand principles. Everything I'm doing now is for Konoha!" Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want to listen to Jiraiya's nonsense either: "Now put these people down and leave!"

"I'll give you ten breaths!"

"19..8.3.2."

The more Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke, the more resolute his words became, and even the killing intent emanating from him grew stronger.

Jiraiya and Tsunade remained unmoved. As the countdown continued, Jiraiya took a deep breath: "Tsunade, keep an eye on these civilians. I'll clear a path!"

As Hiruzen Sarutobi finished his countdown, Jiraiya took a few steps forward: "Two sages, the battle begins!"

"So you're not doing as I asked? I didn't want a fight between master and disciple, but you've chosen the wrong side!" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the battle-ready Jiraiya and quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

A fire dragon bullet was fired at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya quickly formed hand seals and then uttered a low shout:

"Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"
