Fortunately, these were loyal Root members whom Danzo had personally trained for many years, and Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu trusted Danzo's abilities in this regard.

as predicted.

Almost immediately after Mitokado Enoki finished speaking.

"Yes, Elder Mitomon, please rest assured, this is my mission. Lord Danzo has already instructed me. The meaning of my existence is for this moment, for the greater good of the village."

The Root man, codenamed String, immediately lowered his head and replied in a serious tone.

These were answers that sounded completely devoid of autonomy, like those of a meticulously trained puppet.

Mitokado Ero and Utatane Koharu both felt instantly relieved.

Only Tsunade's pupils revealed a complex expression, the meaning of which was hard to decipher.

'For the greater good of the village?'

At that moment, Tsunade felt a sudden sense of irony. When did Konoha become so degenerate?

Tsunade's heart was filled with endless sorrow and heaviness.

I want to say something.

But what came out of his mouth was just a dry, lifeless sentence: "I'm leaving everything to you, Gen."

It's gotten to this point.

Any words seem too pale and powerless.

They would all seem incredibly empty.

"Yes, Lord Godai."

After bowing in response, Xuan stepped to the nearest location, bent down, picked up the special demon mask on the ground, and put it on.

The chakra that surged forth afterward.

It lies in the subtlety.

At its peak.

Tsunade, who was closer, could clearly sense a subtle, familiar aura, the scent of Wood Release.

'So it really was cultivated from my grandfather's cells?'

A faint, unusual glint appeared in Tsunade's light brown eyes.

This feeling.

Tsunade had only ever detected this on her own grandfather.

But what Tsunade didn't know was that this special Wood Release cell and Wood Release aura wasn't something only her grandfather possessed.

The person in front of me appears to be a member of the Root organization cultivated by Danzo.

However, it is a genuine 'product of the Divine Tree'—a disguise made by White Zetsu, and it is the highest quality White Zetsu.

For example, the White Zetsu that possessed Yamato in the original work, causing Yamato's Wood Release power to increase exponentially, is the most classic example.

To discuss the essence of wood.

In some ways, it is even more pure than Hashirama's.

Chapter 500 The People of the Reappeared Pure Land

This was an exaggerated chakra aura far exceeding that of an ordinary Jonin, compared to the hand seals that the White Zetsu had rapidly formed.

The chakra surged even further.

"The Corpse Demon Sealing Technique, dispel!"

With both hands, it was suddenly pulled down.

In the back seat.

Suddenly, a phantom scene appeared, resembling a demon from hell, dressed in a white open-chested coat, with a short knife clenched in its mouth.

On the scene.

Although Tsunade, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane couldn't see or touch it, at that moment, all three of them felt a chill run down their spines.

The atmosphere around them had become noticeably cold and gloomy.

Above the void.

The short knife hanging high in the air.

With a sudden, swift stroke.

"Pfft!"

The abdomen was cut open directly.

"Shh!"

It was prepared in advance, and the blood splattered out rapidly.

"Wow!"

At the moment when blood spurted from his mouth.

next second.

"Buzz!"

On the abdomen of the Grim Reaper in the void, a huge rift was suddenly torn open.

next second.

Several special orbs of soul light suddenly shot out from within.

Completed procedure.

The soul that has been unsealed.

This root person has already completed his mission.

He then collapsed onto the ground in a pool of blood.

The next second, from a perspective unseen by Tsunade, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane, the so-called Root member hidden beneath the mask and wrapped in clothing transformed into a bright, white-bodied, golden-eyed humanoid monster.

However, at this moment, none of the three had any intention of caring about the 'dead' Root member.

Although death is unseen.

However, it was possible to sense the related chakra and aura fluctuations of the three individuals.

At first glance, everyone's attention was drawn to the shooting soul orb.

"Tsunade, quickly test it to see if the technique was successful!"

Koharu, who was sitting on one side, also spoke up quickly, and Homura Mitokado also looked on with an urging expression.

Whether anyone dies or not is of no concern to the two advisors.

Right now, all they care about is whether they can summon the First Hokage and others, which is a matter of life and death for Konoha.

"Ok!"

Tsunade nodded emphatically, took a deep breath, and turned her gaze to the four special beings placed on the ground, who were clearly also White Zetsu in disguise. However, under Black Zetsu's control, they did not show any abnormalities.

"Wait a minute! Tsunade, there are three more people here. Let's use Edo Tensei to summon them too."

Just as Tsunade was about to form hand seals.

Mitomon Homura, sitting in the back, seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly pulled out another scroll from his pocket while speaking loudly.

"Another person?"

Tsunade was slightly taken aback.

From its inception, Konohagakure (Hidden Leaf Village) has been a place of great significance.

So far, there have only been four Hokage.

The four living sacrifices below are meant to be used to summon Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Minato Namikaze using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

A perfect comparison.

This requires three people!?

Who is the psychic?

White Fang and Jiraiya?

That's certainly possible, but what if we need a third person?!

Tsunade didn't immediately recognize who it was, but only a few seconds later, just as Mitokado Homura opened the scroll, broke the seal, and took out the living human being that was also stored in a special nutrient solution glass bottle inside the scroll, Tsunade realized who it was.

I now understand who the third person is.

The next second, Mitokado Homura took out the key material for the extra technique, which was the cell of the person summoned by Edo Tensei.

Tsunade is able to keenly perceive and judge this.

These three cells are the cells of Sakumo Hatake, Jiraiya, and Kushina Uzumaki!

Those three were selected from the prison of Konoha Village, chosen for their heinous crimes and strongest physical abilities.

Although it's highly unlikely that it will be able to perfectly replicate the full strength of someone who has been imprisoned.

But having 60-70% of the strength is enough.

Especially the last person.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu weren't interested in Kushina's strength, but rather in her identity.

That is her identity as Naruto and Menma's mother!

This is especially important.

From my heart.

Tsunade truly did not want these people to be resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
