Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 377 Taking Down Danzo!

The Hokage's office.

Naruto strode in, followed by Sakura.

"Grandma Tsunade, please let me go to the Five Kage Summit!"

After his conversation with Goku, Naruto found Karui and Omoi again, wanting to go with them to meet the Raikage and beg him to rescind his order to hunt down Sasuke, and to cooperate with Kumogakure to find Sasuke and rescue Killer Bee.

But it was obvious that this was just wishful thinking on his part. How could Karui and the others possibly take him to see the Raikage? They rejected him without a word.

As for rescuing Killer Bee, they had already received a promise from Tsunade. With the Hokage's promise in hand, why would they believe the promise of an unknown person?

Just as Naruto was racking his brains trying to figure out how to persuade the other party, Sakura approached him and told him what she had heard from Tsunade.

When Naruto heard that the Five Kage Summit was imminent and that Tsunade was about to travel to the Land of Iron to meet the other Kage, he immediately found a second way to meet the Raikage: to accompany Tsunade to the Five Kage Summit.

That's why he rushed here and couldn't wait to make this request to Tsunade.

"Oh? You want to attend the Five Kage Summit? Why?" Tsunade didn't scold Naruto for barging in so recklessly. Instead, she placed her hands on the table and asked with interest.

"Because I want to see the Raikage, ask him to rescind his order to hunt down Sasuke, and help him rescue the person Sasuke kidnapped!" Naruto said without thinking.

Tsunade paused for a moment after hearing this answer.

"You've got the order backwards. Before you've rescued the Jinchuriki of their village, why should the Raikage accept your request and abandon the order to hunt down Sasuke? Just because of your words?"

Tsunade's two questions left Naruto speechless and at a loss for words for a long time.

That's right, why would the leader of a ninja village agree to such a ridiculous request?

Let alone whether their companion has been safely rescued, even if they have been rescued, they may not be willing to accept your request, let alone in the current situation where the kidnapped person's life is still uncertain.

"But... but what if they find Sasuke faster than me and kill him? Wouldn't that create new hatred for me, Sakura, Shikamaru, Ino... and all of Sasuke's companions?"

Just as Nagato said, new hatred drives us to take revenge on others, and others then generate hatred to take revenge on us, and so on and so forth, without end...

Naruto clenched his fists, lowered his head, and spoke in a very heavy tone.

He wanted to achieve the kind of peace that Jiraiya-sensei spoke of, so he tried his best to resolve the grudges.

Tsunade fell silent again, looking at the determined yet pained boy before her, and sighed inwardly.

Finally, he said, "I agree."

Naruto jerked his head up: "What did you say? Granny Tsunade?"

"I said I agreed to let you come with me to the Five Shadows Summit."

Naruto's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really! Thank you! Granny Tsunade!"

"Yes, but don't get too excited. I'm just giving you a chance to meet the Raikage. Once you meet him, whatever request you want him to grant, you'll have to work hard for it yourself," Tsunade said in a deep voice.

"I definitely will!" Naruto said firmly.

After he and Sakura left, the office returned to silence. Tsunade rested her chin on her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

A while later, Jiraiya suddenly appeared in the office.

"The Five Kage Summit, it's really unbelievable. After so many years, this kind of thing has finally reappeared."

Jiraiya wore a sigh on his face.

The last and first Five Kage Summit dates back to the early days of the establishment of the five great ninja villages, when the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, convened such a meeting to discuss the distribution of the Tailed Beasts.

It is quite remarkable that such a conference has been brought up again after decades.

"Yes, back then, Grandpa convened the Five Kage Summit and distributed Tailed Beasts to each ninja village. His intention was to promote further peace in the ninja world. But after his death, wars broke out one after another in the ninja world, and only now has there been a brief period of peace." Tsunade's thoughts returned, and she sighed.

"It has to be said that although the emergence of the Akatsuki organization brought many crises to the ninja world, its existence promoted cooperation among the major ninja villages. This Five Kage Summit may be an opportunity for the ninja world to usher in true peace in the future," Jiraiya said with deep emotion.

"Yes, that's what I think too. But before attending this meeting, it's necessary to clear out any destabilizing factors in the village."

Tsunade suddenly changed the subject, her gaze sharp as she looked at Jiraiya.

"Since you've come here now, it means that thing has succeeded?"

"With me taking action, it will be a piece of cake." Jiraiya smiled slightly.

Rain-Hidden Village.

After dealing with Madara Uchiha's remains, Nagato pondered for a moment and said to Konan, "Konan, go to Konoha and tell Jiraiya-sensei about this."

,.....

This refers, of course, to the fact that they killed Uchiha Madara.

They had told Jiraiya before that they would inform him of any new developments on this side.

The reason Nagato didn't go there himself was because he wanted to see if Zetsu would come to investigate. If she did, he could take care of Madara Uchiha's accomplice as well.

"Yeah, be careful. That guy may not seem like he's good at fighting, but you never know what he might be hiding."

Without Nagato needing to say anything, Konan, who had already developed a tacit understanding with him over the years, guessed what Nagato was thinking and reminded him.

Not long after, she concealed herself and left Amegakure, heading secretly towards Konoha.

Wilderness.

After parting ways with Naruto, Goku returned to this place.

Lee Locke hadn't accompanied him to dinner before, choosing instead to stay and cultivate. Now, he was nowhere to be seen either, most likely having gone upside down or frog-jumping somewhere else.

Wukong didn't go looking for him. With a loud bang, he opened the five gates again, then punched them twice before immediately closing them again.

call! !

......

He wiped the sweat from his face. Although he had only activated it for a short moment, his body was already burning hot, as if he had been in a long battle.

He reflected on his power level after opening the five gates and found that, as Rock Lee had said, his power had increased by about three times.

Compared to the 1.8 times speed when all four doors are open, this is a huge improvement.

If he were to continue opening the sixth gate, the View Gate, his power would increase by an astonishing five times, but Wukong had no intention of trying any further.

Because a three-fold increase is already his limit, and with five gates open, his body can no longer withstand it, and he can only desperately repair himself by returning his life.

If all six gates were opened, even if a life were to be returned, his body would likely collapse instantly.

In situations where his life might be in danger, Wukong would never have attempted it unless there was a life-or-death crisis at play.

"Moreover, now that I've opened the Gate of Extinction, I'm not able to fight well at all."

Wukong muttered to himself.

Previously, because the automatic repair speed of life return could not keep up with the speed of body damage, he came up with a way to actively control the repair ability, and in the end he did succeed in making the repair speed almost the same as the damage speed.

However, there is a big problem here. When he controls his repair ability to keep up with the speed of his body's damage, he needs to devote all his attention to this work. As a result, he has no spare attention to fight.

In that case, what's the point of opening the five gates? It's just a waste of one's energy.

If he were to slightly slow down his recovery speed, keeping his body in a state where it wouldn't collapse quickly, he would only be able to spare some of his attention for fighting. Not only would he not be able to unleash much power, but he would also easily expose various weaknesses and be easily defeated by his opponent.

So, how do we solve this problem?

Wukong pondered for a while and realized that he needed to increase the automatic repair speed of the life restoration function, rather than relying on him to actively control it.

He activated the Four Gates and Eight Gates Formation, hoping to experience its automatic repair capabilities and figure out how to improve its speed.

However, when he opened the four doors, he was surprised to find that the automatic repair speed had actually improved compared to before!

If the speed was one before, now it has increased threefold, reaching an astonishing three!

What's going on?

Wukong blinked, somewhat confused.

But as he thought about it more deeply, he felt he had found the reason.

I haven't done anything particularly special from beginning to end. If there's any improvement in my abilities, it's my self-controlled repair capabilities.

So, is it because my control over the repair ability has greatly improved that the speed of the automatic repair ability has also increased?

Wukong thought this was the correct answer.

So, if he continues to improve his control over his repair abilities, he can indirectly increase the speed of automatic repair, thereby freeing himself up and allowing him to fully unleash the power of the Eight Gates Formation in its fifth state!

Time flies, and soon it was afternoon.

Inside the Hokage Building, in a top-level conference room, all the Konoha high-ranking officials were seated.

"Hokage-sama, has something happened this time that you've summoned us here?"

Xiaochun, who was in the dormitory, asked in confusion. Although she was an elder, her information channels were outdated and she was unaware of many things.

She didn't even know that three people from Kumogakure had come to Konoha this morning, let alone that the Raikage had convened the Five Kage Summit.

.....

Danzo remained seated in the far corner, his eyes slightly narrowed, seemingly dozing off, but in reality, his ears were already perked up, ready to hear Tsunade's reply.

Although he knew that three people from Kumogakure had gone to see Tsunade, he didn't know why they were there. However, he guessed that Tsunade's sudden high-level meeting was related to this matter, so he also wanted to know the answer to the question.

"Of course there are things, but not just one, there are two." Tsunade glanced at everyone and held up two fingers.

"Oh? Then Hokage-sama, please speak quickly. We old bones are all ears." Koharu Utatane nodded.

"Alright, then I'll get to it. The first thing is about a major event within our Konoha." Tsunade said slowly, her gaze shifting until it landed on Danzo, who was sitting unnoticed in a corner.

Although Danzo wasn't looking at Tsunade at all, he could feel her gaze. He remained outwardly calm, but his heart skipped a beat.

Hmm? Could what Tsunade said be related to him?

Did one of my plans get leaked?

However, those plans were only just formulated and had not yet been implemented. Moreover, only he and his two most trusted subordinates knew about them before, and no one else in Root knew about them, so Tsunade could not possibly know about these things.

The plan mentioned here refers to a series of plans he devised against Goku, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and others in order to successfully seize the position of Hokage.

The content includes how he framed Goku, causing Goku's reputation in Konoha to plummet; how he gradually made Tsunade, Jiraiya, and others doubt Goku, eventually turning them into enemies; and how he profited from this and gradually rose to the position of Hokage.

These plans were only finalized last night. Because Goku is currently in the limelight, it's inconvenient to implement them. Therefore, Danzo plans to wait until Goku's popularity wanes before starting the plans.

He absolutely refused to believe that these plans would be leaked, so his heart only fluctuated for a moment before settling down, ready to listen to what Tsunade was about to say next.

The next second, he heard his own name.

"This matter concerns the Root organization and its leader, Shimura Danzo. Danzo, I ask you, do you know that your crimes have been exposed?!"

Bang! !

Tsunade slammed her hand on the table with a thunderous sound, her voice echoing throughout the entire conference room.

Upon hearing this, all the high-ranking members close to Tsunade, including Anbu Captain Kazuma, Konoha strategist Nara Shikaku, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Shizune, remained expressionless, clearly already aware of the matter.

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, who were biased towards Danzo, both changed their expressions.

Surprisingly, Danzo, who was called out, remained calm and composed, as if he were not the one being questioned.

"Tsunade, what did you just say? Danzo's crimes have been exposed? What crimes has he committed?"

Koharu, no longer caring about honorifics, called out Tsunade's name directly.

Tsunade glanced at her and said sharply, "Traitorous crime!"

"What?!" Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado looked on in disbelief.

"Shizune, distribute Danzo's incriminating evidence to the two elders." Tsunade waved her hand and continued, "Two days ago, when Konoha was attacked by the enemy, Danzo and his Root should have stepped in to protect Konoha, but Danzo gave an order that the Root ninjas stand idly by and turn a blind eye to Konoha's crisis!"

This behavior is a grave betrayal of the village! Therefore, in the name of the Hokage, I hereby formally declare: Danzo is stripped of his leadership of Root and imprisoned to await trial! Furthermore, all members of Root will be interrogated, and their crimes will be clarified before a final charge is made!
