I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

Then he also asked one of his six disciples to stay with him.

In other words, we have to die with him.

At that time, Danzo was tempted, but he lost his nerve in an instant.

Then Hiruzen Sarutobi suggested staying behind to cover the rear.

However, Tobirama did not let Hiruzen stay, because it was his consideration for his disciple, and the price was... the position of Hokage.

Sarutobi was immediately announced as the Third Hokage.

And at that moment... in that very instant, his hesitation cost him everything.

He lost the position of Hokage from that point on.

The Third Hokage will always be the one bathed in sunlight, while he can only be the root buried deep in darkness.

He was tormented by this, and eventually chose to eliminate Sarutobi himself. However, his attempt to assassinate Kakashi failed, and Kakashi was instead recruited by him.

And now, he's failed to persuade Kitahara Kaede to join.

But... now the second-generation teacher has reappeared.

Even if it was only for two hours, his heart was stirred; he wanted to... reclaim his teacher's approval.

Therefore, Danzo will not back down.

but.

"Shut up!" Tobirama retorted directly.

"Sarutobi, get up." Tobirama looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen. "Give me your spot. You're just like the others, staying down there!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly stood up from where the Hokage was sitting at his desk, and then stood in a row with Koharu and Homura Mitokado.

Just like when Tobirama taught me when I was a child.

"I only have 2 hours left."

"And if you can't convince me in these two hours..."

"So……"

"Sarutobi abdicates."

"As for Xiaochun and Menyan, you are both relieved of your advisor positions and sent to the logistics department to raise pigs."

"And then Danzo..."

"You're the same," Tobirama said coldly. "You say you've worked hard for the village. Then show me the results of your efforts and see if they can outweigh them."

It could be said that among these disciples, Tobirama felt that the Third Hokage was the most useless, and... Danzo, the disciple on whom he had once placed great hopes... was the most foolish.

Although he had already made up his mind in the "Observing Kitahara Kaede (^_-) Small Group" to fire all the disciples, Tobirama also gave them a chance to explain (make excuses).

That's already very kind.

but.

The expressions of Koharu and Mito changed rapidly.

"This……"

"teacher!"

"Absolutely not!"

"Where, where are there pig farms... pig farms?!"

In Konoha, besides the jobs that ninjas do, there are also jobs that ordinary people do.

People like those in logistics, such as pig farming, have a very low status and are easily looked down upon. So what is their status?

The Third Hokage was the Hokage, while Mito and Koharu were advisors.

Everyone in the village knows they're high-ranking officials. If the villagers found out... how could they possibly live with themselves?

"Yes, yes, teacher!"

Even the third generation was sweating.

He originally thought being asked to step down was already an unacceptable thing, but now... he's being punished to raise pigs... How can he possibly bear this?

He was a kind and amiable old man in the village, but now his image is completely ruined.

"Hehe—" Tobirama sat on the Hokage's desk, turning to look at the few sheets of paper on the table.

The third generation's eyes twitched instantly.

Because these are the three questions that were just written down.

1. Why was the Uchiha clan wiped out?

2. Why did Konoha's White Fang commit suicide so directly?

3. Why was Naruto Uzumaki, the son of the Fourth Hokage, hated by the entire village?

These three questions were the same ones Tobirama had asked him in the Forest of Death.

"It seems you're quite resistant. Why don't you learn from Danzo?" Tobirama said calmly.

"..." Danzo remained silent as expected.

"Danzo, are you really willing to raise pigs?" Hiruzen Sarutobi walked over nervously and stepped on Danzo's foot.

Although Tobirama looks like a young man now, while the others are old and frail, their teacher's absolute aura makes them feel like they were still his disciples.

Therefore, they could not resist Tobirama.

"Raising pigs?"

"Heh." Danzo chuckled. "I just mentioned my achievements."

"Throughout these years, Konoha has been scattered and fallen, and I have been supporting Konoha all along."

"I don't believe the teacher would make me raise pigs."

Danzo (bddg) feels he has too many regrets and too much loss, so his current attitude is very firm.

Anyway... Sarutobi can take the blame for all three questions.

Danzo felt that he still had hope.

······

"Is it."

Tobirama rested his chin on his hand.

"Then let's begin."

"First, there's the matter of Konoha's White Fang."

Tobirama thought highly of Kakashi, so he chose to tackle Kakashi's problem first.

"Why did you force Sakumo Hatake to his death!?"

"..." Third generation.

"..." Koharu, "Teacher, did Hatake Sakumo complain to you in that world?"

Xiaochun's voice was somewhat timid.

This was a habit she had developed from making mistakes in the past.

Tobirama was taken aback when he heard this.

Then it dawned on me that these guys had never died, so they didn't know that after death they would be all alone and wouldn't encounter anyone else.

However, they assumed the afterlife was universal, so they thought it was the dead who were filing complaints.

"..." Tobirama.

Although Koharu and the others misunderstood, Tobirama thought it would work this way, as it would allow him to hide the fact that he had encountered the "Observing Kitahara Kaede (^_-) group".

So he nodded.

“Yes,” Tobirama said. “So, give me your excuse.”

"Sarutobi, you tell us."

"Let me make this clear beforehand, this is your last chance to see if you can pass the test and resign from your Hokage position," Tobirama said.

“This…” Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Because what he said meant... the teacher was definitely going to lose his position as the Third Hokage.

“Let me speak for him.” Danzo, who had been silent, stepped in to help. “Sakumo Hatake is Kakashi Hatake’s father and played a very important role in the Second Shinobi World War.”

"They broke through the Sand Village's offensive and forced Chiyo to surrender in one fell swoop."

“That old woman Chiyo isn’t dead yet,” Tobirama said.

“Yes,” Danzo continued, “She is still alive and holds a position in Sunagakure that is equivalent to an advisor.”

"Sakumo Hatake looks like the village's hero."

"but……"

"He abandoned the mission midway through an important task and chose to rescue his comrades. If he had abandoned his comrades, he could have completed the mission."

"And this task is very important because his choice of companions resulted in a great loss for the village."

"Then... some people in the village started attacking Hatake Sakumo with fishing boats, and he couldn't take it and chose to commit suicide," Danzo said.

"..."

Tobira.

"Is that so?"

“Sarutobi!?” Tobirama said.

“Yes, that’s right…” the third generation nodded quickly.

"You lied to me!" However, Tobirama looked up instantly, and his overwhelming aura pressed down on the Third Hokage.

Tobirama currently only possesses three-tenths of his peak power, but as time progresses, a ninja's strength actually declines, so... for a genius like him... the oppressive aura here is enough to make the Third Hokage instantly kneel on the ground with a thud.

"Danzo, tell the truth," Tobirama said.

"..." Danzo.

Danzo noticed that his teacher seemed even fiercer than before.

However, he knew this was a good opportunity to trip up Sarutobi, so he said, "Hatake Shigesaku is carrying out an important mission. The villagers will know, which means there has been a leak."

"I think this matter has a lot to do with Sarutobi."

"Because... Sakumo Hatake was the most popular and anticipated candidate for the next Hokage at the time," Danzo said.

"..."

"Sarutobi, is that so!?"

Tobirama's tone remained unchanged, but the Third Hokage pressed his hands to the ground.

"I'm so sorry, teacher."

"I didn't want to force him to his death."

"At that time, I just wanted to... curb his arrogance a little."

"So they let the fishing boats run rampant."

"I never expected him to choose suicide—"

The third generation pressed down with both hands and his head, because he felt the teacher's pressure now being placed entirely on his body.

“You need to talk to Kakashi about this,” Tobirama said. “Sarutobi, you are no longer fit to be Hokage.”
