In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

"It was me, I did it all..."

"I sent people to steal the Book of Seals, and I also sent people to the commercial district..."

"The casinos on Northwest Street have cheated me out of a lot of money. I've long disliked them. I'm taking this opportunity to cause a ruckus on the street. First, it will disperse the Dark Guard's forces, making it easier to obtain the Book of Seals... Second, I'll take the opportunity to eliminate those cheating casinos."

"I did it all."

"I did all of this..."

"I plead guilty..."

As he spoke, Shimura Egawa's voice grew softer and softer.

His face grew paler and paler, turning as pale as paper.

"Men, seize him!"

With a dark expression, Hiruzen Sarutobi ordered the ANBU ninja beside him.

"Yes!"

Immediately, two elite Jonin-level Anbu ninjas...

They lifted Shimura Egawa off the ground, one on each side, and tied him up tightly with ropes.

"Give me information about the prison; we'll decide what to do with him after that!"

"Yes, Lord Hokage!"

After receiving their orders, the two ANBU ninjas turned to head to the prison.

"Sarutobi, Sarutobi!!!"

Before everything is settled and a final verdict is reached,

Danzo Shimura called out to Hiruzen Sarutobi to stop him.

With a thud, Shimura Danzo knelt on one knee.

His face showed grief, and he bowed to Hiruzen Sarutobi, saying:

"The Third Hokage!"

"Although Shimura Egawa made a big mistake,

But he is, after all, the elder of our Shimura clan...

"Lord Hokage, please spare Shimura Egawa's life, considering the blood the Shimura clan has shed for Konoha over the years!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi squinted at his opponent.

He slowly uttered his name:

"Shi! Cun! Dan! Zang!"

As the Hokage,

He will not allow anyone to have special privileges!

The arrogant and domineering Uchiha clan... is now extinct.

He could no longer stand by and watch another family rise, especially right under his nose and under his protection!

Danzo remained kneeling.

He remained steadfast in his stance.

"I don't ask the Hokage to spare Shimura Egawa."

You can imprison him for life, I only ask the Hokage.

"Considering the Shimura clan's contributions to Konoha over the years, let Elder Shimura die!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not agree to his request.

"Alright, I'm tired. You may all leave."

He simply gestured to the members of the secret service to see them out, then turned his back and ignored them.

......

Outside the Hokage's office building,

Tsunade, accompanied by the Anbu ninjas, escorted Shimura Egawa to Konoha Prison.

At this moment, Danzo Shimura finally let out a deep breath.

Call ~

Finally,

Did we finally get through it?

Now, Hiruzen Sarutobi's suspicion against him should be much lower.

Pleading with Hiruzen Sarutobi to spare Shimura Egawa's life... was certainly not what Shimura Danzo wanted to see.

Shimura Egawa knew exactly what he had done.

We even have evidence of his crimes...

If we're talking about who most wanted Shimura Egawa to die, it would undoubtedly be Danzo!

The reason for pleading for him...

Danzo Shimura was trying to reduce Hiruzen Sarutobi's suspicions about him!

The eldest elder has committed a crime... the clan leader pleads for leniency... this is a perfectly normal reaction from the clan leader!

This not only reduced suspicion on him but also let Shimura Egawa know his stance, and this action also calmed Shimura Egawa's emotions.

The only bloodline of Shimura Egawa is in the hands of Shimura Danzo.

In addition, Danzo had just pleaded for him, allowing him to escape death.

Shimura Egawa... there's no reason for him to betray him again.

call...

This is really dangerous.

That kid Tianyu...

Damn it, you ruined both of my plans!

A ruthless glint flashed in Danzo's eyes; he certainly wouldn't let Tenyu go...

Just as Danzo was planning to take a good rest and then devise a strategy to deal with the troublesome Tenmuro,

Suddenly, a sliver of light came from the direction directly in front of him.

Towering flames, raging tongues of fire mixed with billowing black smoke, continuously shot into the sky.

Shimura Danzo paused for a second.

Then it suddenly dawned on me.

not good!

The place where the fire started

It's right in the direction of their clan's ancestral home in Shimura!

Chapter 116 Tsunade's Shock

"Quickly, hurry and put out the fire!"

"My God! How did such a huge fire start without anyone noticing?"

"No, no, the fire is too big! Quickly gather the village's water-style ninjas to put out the fire!"

“If this fire continues, I’m afraid not only will the Shimura clan’s territory be burned down, but the surrounding people will also be affected.”

Towering flames,

It illuminated the originally silent night.

At this moment, a person wearing a black trench coat stood on the Fire Shadow Rock, looking down at the raging sea of ​​fire below.

"What a beautiful view!"

A sigh of emotion.

The Heavenly Imperial Palace, almost blending into the night,

A gentle breeze lifted his cloak, which fluttered in the night.

It's clear that he was in a very good mood at that moment.

Then he clapped his hands, flicked the ash off his clothes, and leaped into the night.

……

In the Tianyu family's mansion

Tianyu had just stepped through the door

He was then hit squarely in the face by a pair of breasts.

"What are you doing standing here?" Tenyu asked Tsunade.

Tsunade, hands on her hips, looked at Tenyu with displeasure and asked,

"Hey, you little rascal, where have you been all night?!"

Just now, I led the Anbu members and caused quite a ruckus at that old man Sarutobi's place.

I was hoping you'd come and cause some trouble with me, but you've vanished without a trace!

"Do you know how busy I've been tonight?!"

What was the result?

Tian Yu asked casually,

They seem completely unconcerned about the outcome of this matter.
