[Hashirama Senju: ...]

[Thousand-Armed Buddha Room: Nizi...]

[Tobirama Senju: Father, shut up too. All you ever talk about is those two words. You say you're not tired of it, but I'm tired of hearing it...]

[Among the Thousand-Armed Buddha: Nizi——]

[Tobirama Senju: Damn it~ If you say that again, I'm blocking you!]

[Thousand-Handed Buddha: ...]

[Hashirama Senju: Second brother, don't be disrespectful to your superior. He is Father...]

[Tobirama Senju: I know, but he always says the same two words every time he appears, there's never anything new to say!]

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was just a tool sent by the system!

[Hashirama Senju: Ah~ this…]

[Tobirama Senju: Alright, let's leave this topic at that. Now let's verify this...]

[Hashirama Senju: What are you seeking to prove?]

[Tobirama Senju: Brother, with your intelligence, you wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you...]

[Hashirama Senju: How do you know I don't understand if you don't explain?]

[Tobirama Senju: Big brother, shut up... Monkey, are you listening?]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Tobirama-sensei, I'm here...]

[Tobirama Senju: Hmm, it's good that you're here. Now I'm asking you, back then, did you guys think that after the Third Shinobi World War, Sakumo's prestige in the village would directly affect your ruling position in the village?]

So, the plan is to force him to his death before the Third Shinobi World War even ends?

Tobirama Senju was ruthless and taciturn!

The moment it's spoken, it hits the nail on the head!

He directly explained why Sakumo Hatake chose that time period to commit suicide!

This really stumped Hiruzen Sarutobi!

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Um...that...this...]

Hiruzen Sarutobi stammered for a long time, but in the end, he couldn't answer!

[Tobirama Senju: Don't dwell on it. Everyone is dead now. Even if you admit it, I won't blame you!]

Just tell me honestly, was this the reason you guys were back then?

So that's why they chose that time period to force that kid Sakumo to his death?

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Yes, Tobirama-sensei...]

Under Tobirama Senju's forceful coercion!

Even the meticulous Hiruzen Sarutobi was helpless!

He could only truthfully reveal why he chose that time period to force Sakumo Hatake to his death!

But let's get to the end!

He still shifted the blame to Danzo!

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: But Tobirama-sensei, it was Danzo who made this suggestion back then, not me...]

I was just responsible for carrying out the orders!

As soon as these words came out!

Shimura Danzo, who had originally planned to stand by and watch, could no longer sit still!

He stepped forward angrily!

[Shimura Danzo: Sarutobi, how shameless of you!]

Back then, you were the one who said that Sakumo's achievements in the Second Shinobi World War were too great!

If he continues to shine in the Third Shinobi World War!

It could easily threaten your rule in Konoha, the old Hokage!

After all, you were already quite old back then!

And Hatake Sakushige was in his prime!

If his achievements on the battlefield are too great, and his record too outstanding!

The villagers will surely side with him!

By then, who knows, the Third Shinobi World War might have already ended!

The villagers would then recommend Sakumo Hatake to become the next Hokage!

That's why you came up with the idea that we must find a way to kill him before the Third Shinobi World War ends!

I still remember this incident vividly!

But now, why are you shifting all the blame onto me?

I took the blame for so many things for you while I was alive!

Now that I'm dead, are you still not willing to let this old man go?

In the Pure Land world.

After saying these words with righteous indignation, Shimura Danzo secretly sneered: "Tsk tsk tsk~ Sarutobi, you're in trouble now. You want to shift the blame to me again? No way... This time I'll make sure you ruin your reputation!"

Chapter 707: Hiruzen Sarutobi's Self-Discipline! (Begging for full subscription)

as predicted.

Just as Danzo Shimura predicted!

When Danzo Shimura revealed the true cause of Hatake Sakumo's death.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was completely dumbfounded!

Because he never expected it!

That incident from back then was too embarrassing for the Konoha leadership to talk about!

It's unbelievable that Danzo Shimura would expose it so directly!

To know!

That incident back then involved much more than just whether he could continue to hold the position of Hokage!

It also relates to the way the entire Konoha leadership handles things!

If other people find out about this!

Especially if the people in Konoha find out!

The consequences could be disastrous!

Hiruzen Sarutobi: Danzo, have you been drinking fake alcohol? Do you know what nonsense you're spouting?

I was getting old back then, and it was time for me to step down and hand over my position to a more capable person!

If Shuo Mao truly had the support of the people back then!

What harm would it do if I simply relinquished the Hokage position?

Hiruzen Sarutobi offered a reluctant explanation!

An attempt to justify Danzo Shimura's words!

But what a pity!

Danzo Shimura had long disliked him!

Even now, Hiruzen Sarutobi is still trying to argue!

He immediately retorted!

[Shimura Danzo: Sarutobi... Even now, you still won't tell the truth.]

Wasn't it you who, fearing you couldn't continue to hold absolute power, came up with that plan to force Sakumo to his death?

Dare you say you weren't the mastermind behind that?

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Danzo, that's enough! If you keep talking, Konoha will lose all face...]

[Shimura Danzo: So be it, that village was never mine anyway!]

I am nothing more than a foil to you, the high and mighty Hokage!

To this old man, the face of Konoha Village is worthless!

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Danzo, you're the Hokage's assistant in Konoha, second only to the Hokage in rank. Isn't that enough?]

[Shimura Danzo: Of course not! In my eyes, if you can't become Hokage, you're nothing!]

So what if you're second only to the emperor and above thousands of others?

Won't we still be trampled underfoot?

What's the difference between being trampled under one person's feet and being trampled under a group of people's feet?

Anyway, we'll all be trampled underfoot...

[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Danzo, you're too petty. I appointed you as the Hokage's assistant back then because I trusted you, that's why I did it!]

But look at yourself, what have you given me in return?

Not only do they fail to properly assist me, but they also repeatedly send people to assassinate me!

Ask yourself honestly, have you done right by me?

[Shimura Danzo: Sarutobi, stop wasting your breath here. Actually, I wanted to step forward as bait back then, but you were too quick to speak and said it first!]

Otherwise, how could you possibly have become the Third Hokage of Konoha?

Hiruzen Sarutobi: Hahaha...

Danzo, I'm not trying to be mean, but you are!

You think you can just stand up and act as bait?

Who would believe that?

Do you believe in using wind and mirrors?

Upon hearing Shimura Danzo say that he had wanted to step forward as bait back then!

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but burst out laughing!

It's not that he didn't want to acknowledge Danzo.

Rather, it's because he understands his old friend's personality too well!

The other party is only good at talking!

Actually, I'm quite timid!

Back then, it was a situation where there was almost no chance of survival!

Let alone stepping forward to act as bait!

Even if you stay behind to set a trap, the other side might hesitate for a long time!

[Akimichi Torifu: Danzo, stop being so stubborn. If you really wanted to be bait back then, you would have stepped forward before Sarutobi did. Who will believe you now? I certainly won't!]

[Uchiha Kagami: That's right, Danzo. It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that in that situation back then, Tobirama-sensei gave us enough time to consider, but in the end, only Sarutobi stood up!]
