In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

"You, you..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was so angry with Amaterasu that he couldn't speak.

Even if he could speak, he wouldn't know how to handle this situation with such irrefutable evidence.

and many more!

Tianyu... what exactly is he trying to do?!

The things the Hyuga clan had previously presented were enough to warrant Hiruzen Sarutobi's death sentence.

Now they've even dug up old stories about the Uchiha clan...

Die once or die twice...

In any case, Hiruzen Sarutobi's fate is death!

If Tenyu wanted to become Hokage, he wouldn't need to go through all this trouble...

It's not for the Hokage position...

So what exactly does Tianyu want to do?!

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked up and gazed at Tenmuro once more.

He found,

Tenyu remained as nonchalant as ever... and wasn't fully armed with ninja tools... (that's because Tenyu had a storage ring).

Judging from his appearance... he really doesn't seem to be planning to attack him!

Suddenly,

Hiruzen Sarutobi recalled the beginning, when he stopped Orochimaru from resurrecting the Fourth Hokage and was interrupted by Ame-no-Mikoto, and what Ame-no-Mikoto said at that time.

Don't worry, I don't intend to kill you.

'You can relax a bit, I won't kill you...'

'After all, killing you would be too easy for you!'

An unstoppable chill instantly enveloped Hiruzen Sarutobi's entire body.

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly realized something.

He knew exactly what Tianyu intended to do.

It's not for the Hokage position...

But it exposed his crimes, pushing him to the brink of despair.

Even when the crime was punishable by death, Tianyu still relentlessly pursued him!

"I won't kill you..."

"Killing you would be too easy for you..."

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind, Tenmura's voice echoed like a demon's whisper.

Ten'yu said he wouldn't kill him... Hiruzen Sarutobi knew it was true!

Tianyu definitely won't kill him!

What Tianyu wants is...

Reveal all his sins and present the bloody truth to the people of Konoha.

Make him confront the sins he has committed...

Don't kill him...

It's to make him ashamed to face the people of Konoha, and to make him accept their judgment!

hiss...

Hiruzen Sarutobi gasped.

Killing you would be too easy for you.

He finally understood what Tianyu meant by those words from the beginning!

Tianyu... truly wanted him dead!

But Tianyu won't make a move...

What Tengo wanted was for Hiruzen Sarutobi to face his own sins and personally end his own life!

In a flash,

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt as if he had fallen into hell.

Chapter 164 Kushina Uzumaki

Tianyu wants him dead!

He should die a humiliating death!

Let him face the mistakes he has made, and commit suicide out of shame!

I finally understand Tianyu's intention.

Hiruzen Sarutobi... his face was pale.

Not only must they kill people, but they must also destroy their spirit.

Tianyu...what a cruel heart you have!

"Tianyu, I won't let you have your way!"

After saying that,

A massive amount of chakra surged from Hiruzen Sarutobi's body.

He's about to make his move!

Having been humiliated to death, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally did not want to end up like that.

Currently... the evidence against Tianyu has not yet been presented, and the matter is still unresolved.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions, while somewhat justifiable, were a way of eliminating the traitor.

He knew, of course, that the aged man was no match for the young Tianyu.

but...

Died in battle

It's much better than dying in humiliation!

Hiruzen Sarutobi moved.

A large amount of chakra swirled around him, and he wielded the Vajra Staff, rushing swiftly towards the Heavenly Emperor.

Hiruzen Sarutobi is very fast.

He used all his strength from the very first move.

But Tianyu...neither dodged nor evaded.

They showed no sign of defensiveness whatsoever.

He smiled lightly at Hiruzen Sarutobi, watching Hiruzen Sarutobi charge towards him menacingly.

“纾　

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi's Vajra Cudgel was about to smash into Ame-no-Mikoto's head...

A wooden hand suddenly shot out and, with lightning speed, pinned Hiruzen Sarutobi to the ground.

The dignified Third Hokage was pinned to the ground like a chick, unable to move an inch.

The one who made the move was Hashirama Senju!

"Sarutobi, what are you trying to do!"

"Let him finish speaking!"

Hashirama Senju's face was filled with rage.

Upon hearing that the annihilation of the Uchiha clan was related to Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hashirama Senju's expression fell.

This was even more upsetting than when he heard about the annihilation of the Senju clan!

'It's over, I'm going to have no way to explain this to Madara!'

This is what Hashirama Senju was thinking.

"It's over, it's over..."

"It's all over."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was ashen, and he mumbled weakly.

He rushed forward to attack Tianyu, intending to die.

The First Hokage making a move... well, it's not like he hadn't considered it.

But Hashirama Senju only subdued him, rendering him unable to move, and he could only obediently accept the judgment of the Heavenly Emperor.

Hiruzen Sarutobi... My heart is dead.

Now that things have come to this, Hiruzen Sarutobi only has one option left.

suicide!

But he couldn't let people see that he committed suicide, because in the eyes of the Konoha people, he would appear to have committed suicide in front of his conscience... This would be the worst possible outcome, confirming the charges against him made by Tenmoku.

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want this! He wanted to maintain his dignity!

Suicide...there are rules to follow.

He couldn't let anyone know that he had committed suicide.

He had to fake his sudden, unexpected death.

He committed suicide by biting his tongue...
