Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

As Hiruzen Sarutobi's vision blurred, Mirai Namikaze instantly appeared before him, her right palm reaching out towards him.

"So fast!"

The initial surge of excitement vanished, leaving only intense fear and panic.

He used all his strength to raise his golden cudgel to block.

Clang!

Namikaze Mirai's palm slammed into the body of the Golden Cudgel.

"Ouch! It hurts so much! Sarutobi, what are you doing?!"

The ape demon, which had transformed into the golden cudgel, let out a painful cry, as it was almost broken.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not have the energy to reply to him. At this moment, his face was filled with terror, and his body was sent flying backward in the violent impact. His forearm was almost broken and made a cracking sound.

Namikaze Mirai remained expressionless and continued charging forward.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was horrified.

"Wait! I was wrong! I was just kidding... Ah!"

The immense force from his throat prevented him from even finishing his sentence.

Her face turned bright red, like a tomato, and she was lifted off the ground by the throat by Namikaze Mirai, as if she were a chick, with her feet dangling in the air.

Complete defeat!

It couldn't even be described as a complete battle.

The entire battle lasted less than a few seconds.

Many of the Konoha ninjas behind Namikaze Mirai almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Even those with better mental fortitude showed expressions of disdain.

The more aggressively they boasted before the war, the more brutally they were beaten during the war.

This retired Third Hokage demonstrated with his actions what it means to "not court disaster."

Many of the older generation of ninjas in the village who were watching this scene turned their heads away in shame, unable to bear to look.

They had originally hoped that Hiruzen Sarutobi could shoulder the dignity of the older generation of ninjas.

Give these reckless young people a good scolding.

Now it seems that times have truly changed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was hailed as the strongest Hokage, didn't even last a single round before being easily grabbed by the throat by Mirai Namikaze and lifted up like a chick.

"What a joke! What a joke!"

An older ninja with graying temples angrily closed the window. If he continued to watch, he might die of anger before he had any life left.

Whatever, let these young people do whatever they want!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, whose throat was being gripped by Mirai Namikaze, could almost hear his own neck groaning under the force of those five steel-like fingers.

With just a little force, his neck would break like a rotten branch.

Upon seeing this, the ape demon felt a pang of anxiety and prepared to provide assistance.

Suddenly a large hand reached down, grabbed him as he transformed into the Golden Cudgel, and squeezed him hard.

boom!

"hateful!"

In excruciating pain, the ape demon could not withstand it and was crushed to pieces, its summoning spell dispelled and it vanished into white smoke.

Sarutobi, I can't save you. Good luck to you!

Honestly, why did I have to mess with this guy!

Sarutobi, are you senile?

The voice of the Enma before dispelling the summoning reached Hiruzen Sarutobi's ears, causing an indescribable bitterness and regret to flash in his eyes for a moment.

Ruined!

Am I really going to die here?

To die in such a humiliating way.

His neck was snapped in front of countless ninjas in the village by the Hokage, who was two generations removed from him.

This kind of death is probably unique in all of Naruto!

Chapter 128 The Great Name is Dead!

Just when Hiruzen Sarutobi thought he was about to die in such a humiliating way, with his neck snapped by Mirai Namikaze in front of countless ninjas.

Suddenly, a familiar female voice reached my ears.

"Old man, haven't you made enough of a scene?"

After a brief moment of surprise, a glimmer of joy suddenly rose in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart, who had been in despair.

correct!

This voice is...

With her neck locked in place by Miki Namikaze, she could only try her best to twist her eyes and desperately turn her peripheral vision toward the source of the sound.

A familiar, beautiful figure was walking towards him with her arms crossed.

"Tsunade..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi opened his mouth, as if to say something.

But the strength of Namikaze Mirai's fingers was too great. With his neck being choked, he could only utter a few simple syllables despite his best efforts.

Tsunade's gaze towards him revealed an indescribable emotion, tinged with helplessness and frustration.

It's as if it's watching a stubborn old man.

"Future, I'm begging you, please spare this old man's life!"

Tsunade looked at Namikaze Mirai with pleading eyes.

“I know he provoked you, but I just can’t bear to watch the old man be killed by you.”

"The old man is certainly wrong and his thinking is stubborn, but he is, after all, the teacher of me, Jiraiya and I. If he were really killed in front of me, I would regret it for the rest of my life."

Namikaze Mirai released her grip on Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand.

Hiruzen Sarutobi collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud, panting heavily, his eyes filled with lingering fear.

Almost!

I almost died!

"Since Tsunade has pleaded for your life, I'll spare it!"

Namikaze Mirai gave him a cold glance.

Killing Hiruzen Sarutobi would be easy.

But after that, Tsunade will inevitably become his enemy, and Jiraiya, that hot-headed idiot, will definitely fight tooth and nail to get revenge on him.

Jiraiya was, after all, Minato's teacher, and they had a close relationship.

We still have to save face.

A severe beating of Sarutobi and the public destruction of his beliefs were enough to deter the corrupt old guard.

Let them realize their own limitations!

"When you get old, you should stay indoors and drink tea. The outside world is no longer dominated by you old folks."

"Always acting like someone in a superior position, don't blame me if you suddenly die one day."

Namikaze Mirai spoke in a flat tone.

"I understand, I understand."

Having narrowly escaped death, Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer possessed his former arrogance.

The fiery passion in his eyes had completely faded.

It was as if they had suffered some incredibly significant setback.

"I'm getting old, I'm getting old after all."

"If you know you're getting old, don't act recklessly!"

Tsunade rolled her eyes, then, supporting Hiruzen Sarutobi's elbow, led him down the path.

The latter walked very slowly, almost step by step, moving with difficulty.

At this advanced age, he burst forth with all his passion, only to suffer a tremendous blow in a very short time. The alternation of heat and cold, excitement and fear caused his life force to be greatly depleted.

Things will never be the same again.

This is another reason why Namikaze Mirai didn't kill him directly.
