In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

I think I'm dead too...

Senju Nawaki looked at Tsunade with a regretful expression.

"Sister, are you dead too...?"

Hearing this sentence,

Tsunade was taken aback.

She stood up and gave Senju Nawaki a familiar flick on the forehead.

"You brat, are you cursing me?!"

Senju Nawaki cried out in pain, habitually covering his head and denying, "No, no, Tsunade-neechan, I was wrong!"

After a while,

There was no follow-up.

The Thousand-Handed Rope Tree is somewhat strange.

Normally... Tsunade would already tap him a few more times.

Nawaki looked up cautiously at Tsunade.

Glistening teardrops clung to her delicate face.

A gentle breeze blew by.

Her long, golden hair swayed slightly.

Tsunade smiled radiantly.

......

The heroes of Konoha all made their appearance.

Tianyu wasn't in a hurry to explain the current situation to them.

After all... none of the heroes of the past knew Tianyu!

With the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, present, his words were even more convincing.

Therefore, Tianyu did not speak.

They allowed Hashirama Senju to transmit information to them.

We await the understanding of the current situation from all the heroes who have sacrificed themselves.

aside,

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face turned deathly pale.

Judging from Tianyu's previous actions...

Since Tengo summoned all these people, he must know their backstories and have enough evidence to convict Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"No, don't..."

Chapter 166 The Death of Hiruzen Sarutobi

"Stop talking!"

"These things cannot be made public!"

"Konoha... will be destroyed!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer possessed his previous ferocity.

There was a hint of pleading in his voice.

Having served as Hokage for decades, Hiruzen Sarutobi accomplished a great deal, but he considered himself a competent Hokage.

He still has feelings for Konoha.

I still hope that Konoha can continue to develop in a positive and progressive way.

If Tianyu were to uncover all these old stories...

Hiruzen Sarutobi will not only be infamous for eternity, but he will also be remembered for his infamy.

Konoha...will also be destroyed!

When the people of Konoha learn the truth about how Konoha had so many virtuous people and heroes who had sacrificed for the village...

Will the hearts of Konoha ever come together again?

Who would be willing to dedicate themselves to a village like this?

Orochimaru, the Uchiha clan...

If Hiruzen Sarutobi takes on these two responsibilities, he will die a horrible death.

But when Ten'yu summoned the spirits of all the fallen heroes... Hiruzen Sarutobi was terrified.

The massacre of Konoha's various factions...

This will cause the people of Konoha to be completely disappointed and disheartened with Konoha!

That way...

Konoha will be destroyed!

Tianyu looked at him quietly.

Enjoying the sight of the Third Hokage wagging his tail and begging for mercy.

There was not a trace of sympathy on his face.

Now that we know the consequences of these things being revealed,

Have you repented now?

Now you look like you're doing this for Konoha?

Where were you when you did all this?!

It's too late!

Tenyu sneered, looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi without saying a word.

"As you wish..."

"I will act as you wish..."

"I will confess my crimes, be condemned by all, and commit suicide in front of everyone..."

"But Konoha is innocent!"

"You mustn't destroy Konoha!!!"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju removed the wooden hand from its grip.

Hiruzen Sarutobi got up from the ground.

He walked unsteadily toward the center.

"Everyone!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi has spoken.

He mustered his strength and made his voice louder.

I'm so sorry, everyone!

I'm sorry, Konoha!

As soon as he finished speaking,

With a thud,

Hiruzen Sarutobi knelt down on both knees.

"Boom!"

A dull sound rang out.

Hiruzen Sarutobi pressed his forehead to the ground and kowtowed forcefully to the people of Konoha.

"The incident involving the Hyuga clan back then was all my fault!"

With your knees on the ground, slowly move your body using your knees.

He kowtowed heavily once more before Hyuga Hiashi.

"Chief Hyuga, I'm so sorry!"

After finishing these tasks, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked up and spoke again.

"Human experimentation...I did know about it back then, and I did participate..."

He knelt down again, facing Orochimaru, and kowtowed.

"Orochimaru... I'm so sorry, teacher!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions surprised everyone.

Seeing his humble appearance, no one could feel any sympathy for him.

After all, his words...exposed his dark and sinful nature without reservation!

Hiruzen Sarutobi's posture was very low.

The low figure is surprising.

Who would be willing to do such a thing?

He now only hopes that Tenyu will not reveal anything more and will not destroy Konoha!

This was his last wish.

That's why he was willing to make this gesture.

"There are indeed hidden reasons for the Uchiha clan massacre... and it is indeed related to me."

He turned and kowtowed to the blind Uchiha Shisui.
