Konoha: Becoming a God Starting with Aburame

Chapter 273 The Nightmare King Descends Upon the Box of Bliss!

Danzo, who was about to be swallowed by the black earth, disappeared, but Izanagi reversed his fate and gave him a second chance.

Furthermore, when Mei Terumi was weak, he used a kunai to quickly and ruthlessly eliminate her.

The black earth, having swallowed nothing, wriggled in confusion, realizing its prey had flown away. It then trembled violently, as if letting out an angry roar to express its displeasure.

After Danzo pulled the kunai out of Terumi Mei's heart, Terumi Mei collapsed weakly, her life force continuously draining from the wound.

"I wonder what the village will become in the future. I can only hope that the Third Mizukage made the right choice, and that the Lord of Demons and Monsters is powerful enough to protect the village..."

As the black earth churned once more, Mei Terumi fell into a deep slumber.

Danzo frowned as he looked at the kunai in his hand, which had once gleamed with a cold light, now pitted and scarred from being corroded by Mei Terumi's blood.

"This Kunwu was made with precious metals, but I never expected it to break down after only one use."

"It seems I need to forge another kunai, and with more powerful materials. It can't be like this one, which was destroyed after only one attack."

The fake kunai enthusiast—Uchiha, with all sorts of flashy kunai throwing techniques!

Danzo, a true kunai enthusiast, dared to charge into Susanoo with his kunai!

……

Guided by the giant eye in the sky, Danzo and Kisame met. They both understood that the time had come to decide who would become the master of all demons and monsters.

Various forms of malice and murderous intent swirled around Danzo and Kisame, who scrutinized each other with chilling gazes.

Everyone has an abyss in their heart that they cannot look directly at. Even the kindest person will have a fleeting evil thought.

Moreover, Danzo and Kisame are hardly good people; they went through several major battles and fought all the way to the very end of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!

And in this process, the giant eye in the sky constantly evokes negative emotions within me.

Now, the mere standoff has transformed the surrounding fear into boundless pressure, a result of their overwhelming killing intent.

As the two met, the giant eye in the sky became even more dazzling, constantly radiating terrifying spatial fluctuations, as if it were pleased with its impending birth.

Roar! Fight!

This will be a war between the Lord of Demons and Monsters, and only death can stop them!

Danzo and Kisame clearly sensed the meaning of the giant eye in the sky.

"I never expected to be your opponent in the final battle. You have the strength to fight your way to the final battle, but you never show it. You really are a treacherous guy."

"Come on, my sharkskin is itching for more!"

Kisame decisively chose to fuse with Samehada, not really understanding the cunning and treacherous guy in front of him who had been hiding his strength all along.

The best option is to enter your most powerful Samehada fusion state.

The humanoid shark's eyes gleamed with ferocity, and the surging malice mixed with the surrounding "fear" crushed towards Danzo, as if it had entered a state of focused concentration, like hunting in the deep ocean!

"Very strong!"

Danzo looked solemnly at Kisame, who had become inhuman, and made a judgment even before they had engaged in combat.

Kisame is different from other Heavenly Demons who have obvious flaws; his strength is all-encompassing!

"Looks like I'll have to use my trump card soon!"

Many Sharingan eyes appeared around Danzo, interconnected and forming a formation that echoed the inscription on the Box of Bliss.

In that instant, the completely sealed state of the Box of Bliss was broken, and a "gap" appeared that allowed it to connect with the outside world.

"Summoning Technique: Giant Armor - Nightmare King!"

A colossal giant suit descended upon the Chest of Elysium, standing tall upon the black earth!

As Danzo summoned the Nightmare King, countless "fears" entered the Nightmare King's body, like wolves eyeing a piece of meat.

The Nightmare King, seemingly merged with darkness, opened his somewhat tattered breastplate. Its immense attraction, like a giant black hole, distorted the surrounding space and absorbed all the "fear" around him.

The swarming "fear" continuously repaired the injuries sustained in the battle with the giant armored Five Spirit King, making him even stronger!

The Nightmare King's fear and darkness intertwined and entangled, and negative emotions continued to gather and merge, eventually forming an incomparably huge black giant!

……

Konoha. An old man is leisurely reclining in a rocking chair, enjoying his retirement.

"Sigh, since retiring, all I do every day is eat, sleep, and fight Asuma. It seems my old bones are completely failing me," Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed.

Actually, it wasn't that no one approached Hiruzen Sarutobi, hoping he could return to the political arena; for example, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado...

For a period of time, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado frequently came to him, saying that they were being bullied terribly by Minato, Shiitsu, and Orochimaru.

Even during meetings, we have to stand!

They kept trying to get him back on the political stage to fight for power and profit.

But each time he resolutely rejected her.

Because Hiruzen Sarutobi is very satisfied with everything as it is now.

He did not disappoint his teacher's mission in a time of crisis. Konoha not only weathered the crisis but also truly became the number one village in the ninja world.

Most importantly, he retired gracefully, carrying with him immense fame!

Even if he can't be considered the pioneer of Konoha, no one would object to him calling himself the restorer of Konoha.

What was that saying again?

Once you're in a position of power, no matter how many strengths you have, in other people's eyes you'll only have weaknesses.

Once you step down, no matter how many flaws you have, in other people's eyes you'll only have virtues.

At the moment he abdicated, Hiruzen Sarutobi, as Hokage, had already lost his political life.

However, his life's achievements were recognized.

He is the hero of ninja, the ninja doctor, and the strongest Hokage!

What does "final verdict" mean?

That's the final verdict!

Hiruzen Sarutobi is currently in this state; all his past mistakes are now being explained away by others.

Even the title of strongest Hokage was accepted reluctantly by many elderly people who had witnessed the power of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

Unlike before, when all I received was ridicule.

The Strongest Hokage?

Are you stronger than the First Hokage or the Second Hokage?

In short, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who abdicated, is a hero of Konoha!

Success and fame, a happy family, a winner in life.

"A-Zang, why won't you retire with me? Why do you insist on pursuing power and influence?"

"Wouldn't it be better to cherish our bond and enjoy our retirement together?"

"I know I made you take the blame for a lot of things in the past, and that was all my fault."

Looking at the tattered and mangled Nightmare King, Hiruzen Sarutobi said sadly.

"A-Zang, I miss you."

Bang!

The Nightmare King in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly disappeared. He rubbed his eyes and was so shocked that he fell off the rocking chair.

"This is... a psychic technique?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared blankly at the dissipating white smoke.

It's important to know that the Giant Armored Nightmare King is bound to Danzo, so being summoned by a spirit means...

broken!

There is living evidence of Danzo's crimes!

The coffin lid is about to burst open in disbelief!

"Ah... Ah Zang, I was just joking, please don't scare me, okay?"
