Konoha: From Aburame to God.

Chapter 166 Danzo: Sarutobi, it’s time to put an end to this!

Kirigakure Village.

"Oh, you want to conduct the Sky Monster experiment, but you want to do it alone?"

"Yes, Mizukage-sama."

Uehara Ishi said with gritted teeth that there was no time to plan carefully and he could only take a gamble for Lord Danzo.

Given his long history of knowing the Third Mizukage, the Third Mizukage might be surprised, but he would not get to the bottom of it.

The Third Mizukage looked at Ueharashi with interest, as if he was curious about Ueharashi's proposal.

"Heavenly Monster, it's very dangerous even with my help. If you want to do it alone, I'm afraid you will die. Do you still want to do it?"

"Please grant me your blessing, Mizukage-sama."

Uehara Ishi said firmly that since Lord Danzo had given such an order, he would carry it out.

"Although I don't know why you want to, I can meet your request."

Uehara Ishii breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what the Third Mizukage said.

Because his request was almost as clear as saying, I have a problem, come and arrest me.

Fortunately, Ueharashi made the right bet. Just as Ueharashi thought, the Third Mizukage did not care about his secret.

The Third Mizukage handed a gem engraved with curse seals to Uehara Ishi.

This gem is an interim result of the research on Mangetsu Hozuki's transformation into water. It digitizes the process of how the Third Mizukage will become a sky monster, and then engraves it on the gem through chakra and curse seals.

"If you integrate this thing into your body, it will automatically transform into a demon. However, this research has not been successful yet. If you use it, it will be a life-or-death situation. You should think about it carefully."

The Third Mizukage spoke up, and also added, "If you succeed, tell me how it feels. I also need data on this thing. Forget it, I'll come find you if you succeed."

After Ueharashi got the gem, he breathed a sigh of relief, held it carefully, and immediately said goodbye to the Third Mizukage.

Shang Yuanshi came to a deserted place, and then used spiritualism to summon the spiritual beast unique to the root.

"Deliver this gem to Master Danzo immediately!"

The summoned beast swallowed the scroll that sealed the gem, nodded, and then disappeared.

……

After the Hokage election.

root.

Danzo looked expressionlessly at the cold Root ninja below.

"I am the root of Konoha. Konoha cannot live without me! If you, Hiruzen, insist that I disappear with you, then I would rather die in the sun!"

"Do it! Quickly! This is my last chance."

When the Anbu ninja heard Danzo's order, they immediately went to the village to spread public opinion.

Danzo looked in the direction of Sarutobi Hiruzen silently.

Hiruzen, don't think that just because you live in the sunshine now, you can forget the darkness and sins that once stained you!

"You, the Third Hokage, are an old man without foresight! If Lord Danzo had joined the great struggle, he would have led Konoha to dominate the ninja world long ago!"

"Danzo-sama, it will take thirty years to get your heart back, three years to get your will back, and only three days to get your position back as Hokage!"

"Danzo-sama is the most suitable person to be the Hokage. Without Danzo-sama, there would be no Konoha!"

A lot of public opinion instantly aroused in Konoha, the villagers were confused, and the ninjas didn't know what to do.

Danzo is also a special existence in Konoha. He is the white glove of the Hokage and in a sense a part of the Hokage.

Everyone knows Danzo's obsession with the position of Hokage.

However, now that the Hokage has been chosen, isn’t it a bit late to stir up public opinion?
Also, is this considered rebellion?
When the Uchiha clan heard this, they were overjoyed and had already begun sharpening their knives.

This old guy Danzo has always been targeting the Uchiha clan. Now he has finally seized an opportunity, an opportunity that no one can refute, so he must make good use of it!
This matter is also within the management scope of the Police Department, and their doing so can be regarded as the Uchiha clan expressing goodwill to the new Hokage Minato Namikaze.

The Uchiha clan has shown through their actions that they will support Minato Namikaze and fight against any other existence that attempts to get involved in the Hokage. After all, among Minato Namikaze's direct disciples is Uchiha Obito, and the Uchiha has successfully entered the Hokage master-disciple inheritance system.

Uchiha Obito resolutely became the hope of the entire clan.

“It has come to this.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen watched as the public opinion stirred up by the Root ninjas was suppressed.

Danzo also knew that there was no point in doing this, but it was only years of inertia that made him act this way.

However, the most important thing now is to make a break.

……

The Valley of the End, where the two founders of Konoha, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, once fought a great battle, has special significance for Konoha.

Danzo stood alone under the huge statue of the first generation, waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen to arrive.

This was the tacit understanding between them, that Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen would end everything here.

Danzo knew that his chances of winning were slim, but even if there was only a glimmer of hope, Danzo would not give up. He would never accept being stripped of everything and dying in obscurity.

Next to Danzo is a huge statue of the first generation, which is a location that Danzo chose specifically.

Because in the battle between the First Hokage and Uchiha Madara, the First Hokage was the winner!
Even though it was meaningless, Danzo wanted to do this.

Footsteps were heard, and Sarutobi Hiruzen, dressed in tight clothes and holding the Ruyi Staff, appeared in front of Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo who was already prepared, with extremely complicated feelings.

Danzo, why have we come to this?

"Stop it, Danzo. It's not too late. I will protect you!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally remembered their old friendship and wanted to persuade Danzo again.

"If you continue, you will probably be the biggest traitor in Konoha's history, and you will not have a good end."

"Hiruzen, it's too late. I won't give up! And the biggest traitor? Have you forgotten that one of the two founders of Konoha was from the Uchiha clan?"

Danzo attacked Sarutobi Hiruzen without mercy. Now that Danzo is about to lose everything, he is no longer afraid of anything.

"..."

What Danzo said made sense.

"Are you really going to do this, Danzo?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes.

"You should understand that humans have their limits, just like you were afraid that you would not be able to lead Konoha to become strong."

Danzo spoke to himself.

"Hiruzen, you know that when I realized your intention, my first reaction was fear."

"Because at that time, I clearly realized that my power came from you. Without your support, I am nothing but a lost dog."

"But it's all over. When I took this step, it was magnificent and refreshing, like a flower on a cliff."

“We think the flowers on the cliff are beautiful because we stop at the cliff, instead of taking a step toward the sky like those fearless flowers.”

"Everyone... Hiruzen! There is nothing more to say. Today, either you die or I die!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo's determined eyes and sighed.

Emotionally, Sarutobi Hiruzen was unwilling to go to this point with Danzo.

They used to grow up together, fight together, and be comrades who could be trusted with life and death, but now they are turning swords against each other and killing each other!

But evil acts will never be tolerated!

Sarutobi Hiruzen also made up his mind to give Danzo a decent ending, rather than dying as a criminal or a traitor. "
