Chapter 54 Everyone Wants to Kill Danzo

The ninja world is like a small boat on the sea, and Danzo, always ready to help others, is like an indispensable pot in life, always there wherever he is needed.

Danzo worked tirelessly and at an extraordinary pace to identify and address any shortcomings in Konoha's leadership.

[Danzo: The Uchiha incident was indeed too stressful. Sigh~ I've realized my body is not what it used to be. I get hungry at mealtimes, want to drink water when I'm thirsty, and my eyelids start to droop at night.]

That year, Danzo was diagnosed with: scapegoating syndrome.

This rare disease is incurable; the patient's body parts will gradually stiffen, leading to a vegetative state, and may even result in death.

At that moment, Danzo on the light screen transformed into a large tree, causing the young people watching in Tobirama's office to gasp in surprise.

"Teacher, are the cells of the First Generation really that dangerous?"

Tobirama nodded and replied, "Yes, my brother's cells are extremely dangerous. If we're not careful, he could turn into a giant tree like Danzo in the picture."

At this point, Tobirama had some guesses in his mind.

Danzo's right hand was undoubtedly implanted with Hashirama cells.

The reason he didn't turn into a big tree but was still able to jump around is mostly because of his Sharingan.

So, is the Sharingan able to suppress Hashirama cells?

Tobirama felt that he could study it properly when he had time.

Alternatively, you could try to obtain information from Danzo forty years later.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head.

In his view, Danzo forty years later was doomed to die. No matter how noble his reasons were, his research on Hashirama's cells, his destruction of the Uchiha clan, and his cruelty to the village's orphans showed that he was already guilty of heinous crimes and beyond redemption.

If the Third Hokage hesitates to act out of consideration for past relationships, he wouldn't mind doing it for him.

This guy was so disgusting that he couldn't stand it, and killing him wouldn't appease public anger.

Danzo, unwilling to disrupt the village's operations, took up walking sticks and lived a simple life between home and work.

[Until news of Shisui, a descendant of Kagami, falling seriously ill reached Danzo's ears.]

Seeing Shisui, who was referred to as his descendant, on the screen, Jing's expression softened slightly.

[Shizumi, suffering from an eye disease, will lose her sight at a young age.]

[For the sake of a bright future for young people, and to repay the kindness of his comrades, Danzo took out his savings—the money he had saved to treat his scapegoating syndrome—and, in the gentlest way, expressed his deepest gratitude: "You are my eyes."]

"Danzo, you fucking deserve to die."

Kagami, whose expression had just calmed down a bit, became enraged again after seeing Shisui on the light screen, whose eyes had been taken by Danzo.

The youth group shrank back, indicating that it was none of their business, and tried their best to minimize their presence.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, Tsunade, and others were also extremely angry.

Even if Shisui were just an ordinary villager from Konoha, let alone a descendant of his comrade-in-arms, he shouldn't have chosen to harm his opponent for the sake of power.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and his friends exchanged glances and nodded to each other.

At that moment, they made a decision together.

Danzo must die forty years from now.

Konoha Village cannot tolerate such evil people.

"Old man, look at this, this is your good companion."

In response to Jiraiya's questioning, the Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette and murmured, "I was wondering why Shisui suddenly died. Turns out it was Danzo who did it."

The Third Hokage originally did not want to destroy the Uchiha clan.

Although this clan may not be the brightest, they are incredibly strong and can serve as excellent henchmen for the village.

Everything was proceeding according to his plan.

With the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui will surely gain enough influence within the clan given more time.

At that point, the village will only need to eliminate those radicals.

Unexpectedly, Shisui suddenly died, disrupting his plans.

In the end, the only option left was to send the Uchiha clan down that dead end.

It's a pity about Shisui's eyes. Those were eyes that could change a person's will.

By the way, Danzo would never destroy such a powerful pair of eyes.

He will definitely have his eyes transplanted onto his own body.

The Third Hokage glanced subconsciously at Danzo's right eye, which was wrapped in bandages.

Was only one transplanted?

Thinking of this, he quickly walked to Jiraiya's side and whispered to him, "Jiraiya, I suspect that Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan has been transplanted into Danzo. Don't say anything yet, listen to me."

Jiraiya nodded without saying a word.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

The Third Hokage continued, "Shisui's eye ability is very powerful, called Kotoamatsukami. It can directly invade the opponent's brain and modify their will without being detected."

Modify will?

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya frowned.

If that's the case, then it's going to be a bit tricky.

"If my attitude changes drastically without warning, I'm most likely being controlled by Danzo. You must be careful."

"I understand. Perhaps he'll choose to control me, or Orochimaru?"

"No matter who it is, we must be vigilant."

To be honest, Danzo really did consider using Kotoamatsukami.

However, the Third Hokage reacted too quickly, telling Jiraiya about it before Jiraiya even used it.

At this point, no matter which of the three he modifies, the other party will discover it.

Once discovered, its power naturally decreases.

To ensure everything went smoothly, Danzo decided to remain in hiding and wait for the right opportunity to use Kotoamatsukami.

On the screen, Shizuku, whose eyes were closed and bleeding, was being "interviewed".

[Shisui: That day, my eye condition suddenly flared up, and it started bleeding for no apparent reason. Fortunately, Danzo was nearby and called the most authoritative doctor to treat me on the spot, helping me permanently resolve the problem. Without him, I wouldn't know what to do. I am very grateful to him and thank Danzo from the bottom of my heart.]

Danzo showed great humility in response to Shisui's gratitude.

[Danzo: Actually, there are many high-ranking officials in Konoha like me who, even when facing their own difficulties, will not back down and are willing to lend a helping hand.]

On that day, it seemed that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had a problem with his office chair.

[Considering security risks, Danzo sent his men to delay Hiruzen, who was out on official business.]

While they claimed to be stalling, the footage actually showed Hiruzen being assassinated.

"Old man, you are really too soft-hearted. That guy even sent someone to assassinate you, and you still didn't take care of him."

The Third Hokage smiled bitterly upon hearing this, thinking to himself: I was indeed too soft-hearted. If I had used that as an excuse to completely remove Danzo from his position, there probably wouldn't have been so many problems later.
