Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

……

Hokage Room.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was smoking his pipe, suddenly noticed a slight tremor in the ground and a few specks of dust falling from the ceiling.

His brows furrowed slightly.

"earthquake?"

Why does an earthquake suddenly happen out of nowhere?

Konoha Village doesn't seem to be located in an earthquake zone, does it?

Normally, an earthquake might not occur for more than ten years.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, a member of the secret service appeared with a whoosh.

The sound was filled with fear.

"Something terrible has happened, Hokage!"

"What's all the fuss about?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was pondering the source of the earthquake, did not notice his urgency.

Having weathered several setbacks in the future, he has developed a strong heart.

"It's the root! Something's happened to the root!"

The roots?!

Isn't that Danzo's base?

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused, realizing that the source of the earthquake seemed to be in the direction of the Root base.

He caught his breath and realized the blind spot.

"Tell me quickly! What happened to the roots?"

The undercover officer who was reporting swallowed hard.

"The entire root base has collapsed..."

pat!

The pipe he was holding slipped from his mouth and fell onto the Hokage's desk.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze was blank.

W-what? !

The root base was destroyed?

Chapter 56 The Dream Eater's Shock! Has Hashirama Senju Resurrected? (Please Read On!)

!! )

What a big deal!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, sitting at the Hokage's desk, had his pupils trembling slightly. His back was already soaked with cold sweat, and a chill ran from his tailbone to the back of his head.

The Root Base is located on the edge of Konoha Village.

It is a large base built by hollowing out the ground.

In terms of area, it's even larger than his secret base!

Such an important place actually collapsed?!

Something absolutely terrifying has happened!

"Danzo, what trouble have you gotten yourself into this time?"

A few bright red blood vessels spurted from the corners of Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes.

Only Mirai Namikaze could probably pull off something this big.

He stared at the kneeling members of the Dark Guard below and shouted.

"Quickly! Summon the Anbu immediately!"

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was gathering the Anbu, the other villagers in Konoha had already noticed the unusual situation in the village.

"Is there an earthquake?"

Why did it suddenly start shaking?

"what happens?"

Panic, confusion, and bewilderment spread among the villagers, leaving them bewildered and at a loss.

Until someone suddenly exclaimed.

"Look! There's smoke rising over there!"

Following the direction the man pointed, the other villagers turned to look and were immediately stunned.

Thick, billowing smoke rose from the southern part of the village. It wasn't the smoke from a fire, but rather the dust that rose up from a collapsed building, almost completely covering the forest.

Such a huge cloud of smoke.

Only then did these villagers realize the seriousness of the situation.

……

On the edge of Konoha Village.

The root base, which was originally hidden underground, has completely collapsed, leaving only a huge sinkhole-like depression, and the churning dust is gradually dissipating.

"Cough cough! Cough cough..."

Danzo, covered in dust and blood, coughed violently while kneeling with his mouth covered.

As the smoke and dust cleared, the scene of ruins came into view, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Terrible!

It was incredibly tragic!

The entire root base has been reduced to ruins, and among the rubble and broken bricks, one can see the scattered remains of many dead roots.

Danzo's pupils trembled slightly!

It felt like my heart was being squeezed tightly by a giant hand!

Suffocation, unable to breathe!

The roots, the roots he had painstakingly cultivated for many years, the roots to which he had devoted his entire life's work, were all destroyed in an instant!

At that moment, he felt as if the whole world was spinning!

Turning his head, his single eye was filled with ferocious blood vessels as he stared intently at Naruto, who was unharmed under the protection of the magnetic fluid.

"Because of you! It's all because of you!"

"I have lost everything!"

At this moment, his heart was filled with nothing but endless killing intent!

The root is gone, so what if we successfully place the cursed seal on Naruto?

Everything is beyond repair!

"Die, you fox demon!"

Danzo charged toward Naruto with a hateful roar, his one eye turning crimson.

Naruto turned pale with fright and instinctively closed his eyes and screamed.

"uncle!"

puff!

With a dull thud as flesh ripped apart, Danzo's ferocious expression froze, and he suddenly felt the world in his vision turning upside down.

He saw his headless body still in a charging posture.

He saw a blond figure slowly emerging from the dust that had settled across from him, his eyes cold.

Driven by inertia, Danzo's body rolled a distance before collapsing in the ruins, his head rolling several meters away, his eyes wide open in death.

Naruto raised his head, his azure eyes suddenly welling up with tears as he gazed at the blond figure slowly approaching.

"uncle!"

Naruto ran over and threw himself into Mirai's arms.

A gentle smile appeared in Naruto's eyes as he stroked Naruto's blond hair with a large hand.

"You're not hurt, are you?"

"No."

Naruto shook his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Uncle, I'm very strong, I wasn't scared at all."
