People in Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began with Demon Slayer

Kimimaro, with his demonic nature, immediately recognized Yosuke.

"Very good. Hiruzen Sarutobi is in the main stands, and Danzo should be in Root. The fourth battle will begin, and that's when the plan will start."

"Kimimaro, I'll attack Root and lure Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others there. Kimimaro, you begin assassinating the daimyo from various countries present."

Kimimaro was a little worried: "Naruto, Jiraiya and Tsunade are with Hiruzen Sarutobi. What if they go there too? Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"

"Don't worry, Minato Namikaze has arrived. He will help me stop Jiraiya and Tsunade."

Naruto looked into the shadows behind the wall.

"Am I right, Minato Namikaze?"

Chapter 310 The Plan Begins

Minato Namikaze emerged from the shadows behind the wall, looking at Naruto with a complicated expression.

"Naruto, are you really going to do this?"

Naruto said coldly, "I have to do this. If you want to switch sides temporarily, then so be it."

"Kimimaro, let's begin preparations."

After Naruto finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

Kimimaro also took action, hiding in the meeting place.

Minato Namikaze sighed. The village he once wanted to protect was now being used as an accomplice in its destruction, and a wave of sorrow washed over him.

Naruto arrived at the Root base.

Because of the joint Chunin Exams, Konoha was short-handed with ninjas, and some of the Root ninjas were conscripted.

Therefore, apart from some experimental personnel, there are not many ninjas currently at the Root base.

To create a favorable fighting environment for himself, Naruto created dozens of shadow clones to infiltrate the Root base and carry out assassinations.

Meanwhile, Naruto himself, relying on his familiarity with Root in his mind, ventured deep into the base to search for Danzo.

As Naruto ventured deeper, the sounds of fighting could be heard all around him.

Naruto's shadow clones are already fighting the ninjas stationed at Root.

Naruto arrived at a door deep inside the base, pushed it open, and found Danzo sitting upright on the tatami with his eyes closed.

Danzo opened his eyes and saw Naruto; his eyes were filled with surprise.

"Uzumaki...Naruto? I didn't expect you to dare to come back."

Naruto said coldly, "Konoha is full of my enemies. Of course I'm coming back to kill you all one by one."

Danzo stood up from the tatami mat, untying the shackles on his right hand as he sneered, "He really doesn't know his own limitations."

With the shackles removed from Danzo's right hand, there was still a layer of bandages wrapped around it.

After Danzo removed the bandages, he revealed a pale arm with eleven Sharingan eyes.

Naruto was somewhat shocked: "It seems that you were the real winner of the night the Uchiha clan was massacred."

Danzo formed hand seals and then charged at Naruto, striking him with his Sharingan right hand.

Naruto made no move, but just as Danzo was about to strike him, the Nine-Tails' chakra hand suddenly appeared and grabbed Danzo.

Danzo, who was being held by the Nine-Tails' chakra hand, did not panic. Instead, he exclaimed, "Is this the power of the Nine-Tails that you control?"

Naruto, in Kurama Mode, manipulated the Nine-Tails' chakra hand and crushed Danzo alive.

Just as Naruto was surprised that the battle was too easy, Danzo's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Then let's let our eyes do the talking in the next battle!"

Danzo pulled out a kunai and stabbed it at Naruto.

However, Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra Hand sent Danzo flying.

Naruto couldn't understand it. Danzo had indeed been crushed to death by him, and it wasn't some kind of shadow clone technique.

"The power gained from being in sync with the Nine-Tails? But a beast is a beast. Even a tailed beast is just a pet under the Sharingan."

The Nine-Tails' chakra hand conjured a Rasengan and swiftly pressed it towards Danzo.

Danzo suffered a large hole in his abdomen and died again.

However, Danzo's figure reappeared not far away.

"Can someone manipulate the Nine-Tails' chakra so skillfully...?"

Naruto charged at Danzo and engaged him in battle.

Danzo, with his skillful movement, officially began his fight with Naruto.

...

Meanwhile, the fourth exam has already begun.

A member of the Anbu ninja suddenly appeared behind Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Lord Hokage, the Root base has been attacked, and the attacker is Naruto Uzumaki!"

Jiraiya and Tsunade were utterly shocked when they heard about Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He immediately decided to head to Root to stop Naruto and Danzo's battle.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi, Jiraiya, and Tsunade were leaving the venue.

A kunai came hurtling towards them, and then a figure instantly appeared behind Jiraiya and Tsunade, placing his hands on their shoulders before disappearing from the spot again.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared in horror at the Flying Thunder God kunai lying on the ground.

However, in order to stop Naruto and Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to go to Root first.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Jiraiya, and after Tsunade left.

Kimimaro also launched his operation.

By utilizing the bloodline limit of his own Corpse Bone Pulse, he used the Ten-Finger Bullet technique to instantly launch his ten finger bones like bullets, silently assassinating daimyo of various countries.

The daimyo were all ordinary people, not ninjas, so Kimimaro's assassination was very successful.

The deaths of visiting dignitaries from various countries caused an immediate riot in the venue, with everyone fleeing outside.

The situation began to get out of control.

In the forest of Konoha on the other side.

Tsunade looked warily at the masked man who had suddenly appeared before her and possessed the ability to teleport.

Jiraiya looked at the man with a complicated expression: "Why, Minato?"

Tsunade stared in disbelief: "Minato? The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze?"

Minato Namikaze removed his mask, looking apologetic: "Jiraiya-sensei, Tsunade-sama, it's been a long time."

"Minato, you're still alive! Why haven't you shown up? Konoha is already..."

Jiraiya stopped Tsunade from continuing and instead asked Minato Namikaze, "Minato, you're here to help Naruto get revenge, right?"

Minato Namikaze nodded silently.

"How could this be... You're the Fourth Hokage, Minato..." Tsunade said, heartbroken.

"I am not the Hokage now. I am just a father who wants to make amends to his child. Naruto asked me for help to stop you. I don't want Naruto to be disappointed in me and Kushina again."

Tsunade questioned, "Minato, have you betrayed Konoha?"

"Lady Tsunade, for the sake of Konoha, we sealed the Nine-Tails inside Naruto and left him in Konoha. But Konoha ostracized Naruto, saw him as a monster, and sent him to Root, where he suffered inhuman torture. Konoha betrayed us."

Jiraiya said sincerely, "Minato, the Third Hokage is determined to reform Konoha. Tsunade and I are working hard on it. I beg you, give us a chance."

“Jiraiya-sensei, it’s not that I don’t want to give you a chance, but that Naruto doesn’t want to. For Naruto, Konoha only brings him hatred. I once said that as long as Jiraiya-sensei can persuade Naruto, Kushina and I will not interfere with any of Naruto’s decisions, but Jiraiya-sensei has not done so.”

"Minato, are you really going to stop us here?"

Minato Namikaze said in an unyielding tone, "Jiraiya-sensei, I hope you and Lady Tsunade can stay here for a while."

Jiraiya was anxious. It was clear that Naruto's targets for revenge were Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo.

"I'm sorry, Minato, we have to get there and stop Naruto,"

Jiraiya and Tsunade simultaneously adopted an offensive stance.

Chapter 311 Jiraiya and Tsunade are helpless

Jiraiya and Tsunade were completely helpless against Minato Namikaze.

Jiraiya, who knew Minato Namikaze very well, understood that Minato must have set up many Flying Thunder God kunai around him beforehand, making it impossible to subdue Minato.

Worried about the situation in Konoha, Tsunade rushed towards Minato.

With chakra gathering in her fist, Tsunade unleashed her monstrous strength as she slammed it toward Minato.

But in a flash of golden light, Minato appeared behind Jiraiya and delivered a flying kick to Jiraiya's back.

Jiraiya began forming hand seals as Tsunade charged toward Minato.

Minato's sudden appearance forced Jiraiya to stop releasing his ninjutsu and use his elbow to block Minato's flying kick.

"Jiraiya-sensei, Konoha's sealing techniques are mostly brought by the Uzumaki clan, and sealing techniques are useless against the Flying Thunder God Technique, because I can use the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away during the sealing technique's release."

When Minato saw the hand seals Jiraiya formed, he understood that Jiraiya wanted to use a sealing technique to control his actions.

Jiraiya was in a real bind.

His disciple's talent was simply too strong; with just the Flying Thunder God Technique, he was already invincible.

Not to mention the Sage Mode and Sealing Techniques that Minato also possesses.

To be able to fight Minato Namikaze, one must be able to keep up with his reaction speed.

World War III.

Minato Namikaze and the current Raikage A team up with Killer Bee for an encounter.

A saw through Minato's Flying Thunder God technique's weakness: it could only teleport to marked objects. So he used Lightning Release to activate his entire body. At this point, A was already at his fastest speed, and it could be said that there were almost no people in the entire ninja world who could be faster than him.
