farewell , konoha

Chapter 52 For the village!

The silence between the two sides was broken by Sandai first. His eyes, which were originally slightly cloudy, were extremely sharp at this moment, and he said in a deep voice: "It seems that you have no regrets at all."

"regret?"

Danzo looked puzzled.

"Why do you regret it? I never regret anything I do. Only you..."

"Hiruzen!"

"You will regret it!"

Speaking of this, Danzo became uncontrollably excited and his tone became a little passionate.

"Being indecisive, retreating again and again, leaving Konoha to be bullied by other villages, this is what you should regret!"

"Konoha has never been afraid of war. It's afraid of having its spine broken, so it has to endure."

"It was you who reduced the village to what it is today!"

"Peace is just a lie you tell to satisfy yourself."

After Danzo got excited, he looked at the silent Sandaime and his tone calmed down again, with a hint of sarcasm.

"What's more, don't you know most of the things I do?"

"But you never tried to stop me. Instead, you watched and finally took action to be your good person."

"I don't mind dirty hands, and I don't mind fame. I just want Konoha to be strong and in my own hands!"

"You're old, Hiruzen!"

In the Hokage's office, two old men who have supported each other until now expressed their attitudes without hesitation.

Regarding Danzo's sophistry, Sandai just looked at it coldly and said calmly: "Are you done?"

Danzo squeezed the crutch tightly in his hand, hummed softly, and said unceremoniously: "It's over!"

"That's what I said!"

The third generation was sitting on the Hokage's seat, looking at the damaged cigarette rod he liked, closing his eyes and calming down.

He said slowly: "Duanzo, you have disappointed me. It is precisely because of you that the second generation chose me in the end."

As soon as these words came out, Danzo's face turned dark immediately. He really couldn't lift the pot wherever it didn't hurt, or poke it wherever it didn't hurt.

Sandai continued: "If war can solve problems, the world will not be so complicated."

"Fight? Konoha can indeed still fight, but you should know in your heart what the final outcome of the war will be."

"The people are withering, there is no support, there is only mourning in the village, and a pack of wolves surrounding it, staring at Konoha's flesh."

Danzo snorted again: "Then beat them into fear until they can no longer resist when they mention Konoha."

The third generation looked at him, slowly closed his eyes, leaned on the chair, was very disappointed, and turned to look out the window.

"When the second generation handed over Konoha to me, he also asked you, Koharu, and Yan to assist me."

"But after all, we have changed and are no longer what we were before."

"It was neither me nor you who went to the battlefield, and the names on the list that came back were not just numbers, but lives, fresh lives."

Danzo showed disdain, he had never changed, he had always just wanted that position, it had become just a means.

Besides, to become a ninja, you must have the consciousness to sacrifice your life. If you are afraid of death, why do you want to be a ninja?

He also survived the war back then, and faced life and death moments many times.

"It's because I indulged you too much that it's what it is like now."

The third generation turned back, looked at Danzo, and said seriously: "Duanzo, remember, I am the Hokage!"

At the same time, he picked up the piece of information on the table and smashed it over.

"Read it, let me see it clearly, and understand what you have done."

Danzo grabbed the information thrown at him, put his cane aside, glanced at the third generation, lowered his head and started reading. The information above was the latest one sent back by Jiraiya, and the content...

His exposed left eye narrowed slightly, his expression changed from calm to serious, until his brows furrowed, and he finally put down the information, his expression gloomy and uncertain.

The third generation said coldly: "How is it? Isn't it surprising? It's a pleasant surprise."

"Let others know that the grandson of the First Hokage betrayed Konoha and wanted to destroy Konoha. What a joke it is."

"Moreover, he still has this possibility and has that kind of strength."

Danzo was silent. He didn't expect that the opponent would be so powerful. Even Jiraiya was no match for him.

He knew about the Wood Release and the Sharingan, but he didn't expect that he would seize the Byakugan from the Kingdom of Water and possess the power of a tailed beast.

If it were just "him", it shouldn't be possible for him to grow so fast in such a short period of time.

He said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid there are other forces behind him helping him, otherwise where would he get the information?"

"What's more, it's impossible to confirm whether he is a [Rope Tree] or not."

Sandai looked at him and said calmly: "Shouldn't this question be asked to you?"

Danzo was silent again, how could he know whether the other party was [Rope Tree].

He pressed the information in his hand on the table and said: "Leave him to me and I will give you an answer."

The third generation did not respond for a long time, which made Danzo frown again and said loudly: "Why, who can you count on now? Can you count on the other party to change his mind?"

Regarding this matter, Danzo has no fear. Just as he said, who can the third generation of Konoha count on now? Jiraiya has been defeated by the opponent, is it possible that he still counts on Tsunade?

joke!

Tsunade couldn't even know about this kind of thing, so the third generation had no choice at all!

At this moment, Sandai continued to remain silent. He now only had two choices.

One is to deal with Danzo, and then persuade "Rope Tree" to let him return to the village.

Second, as Danzo said, if you leave it to him, success will be the best, but failure will be the best...

He can also pretend that he doesn't know, and finally Danzo will memorize everything and return to the first option, and then he will try to persuade him.

only……

Danzo's words also concern him, whether the other party is still the [Rope Tree], and what is the force behind the other party now.

The third generation of [Rope Tree] has no clue and cannot confirm it, but he has a clue about the forces behind it.

According to the intelligence, the other party also left Konoha on that day. I am afraid that the organization behind it is where Itachi is staying now.

【dawn】!

The third generation weighed things over and over in his mind. Compared to the uncertain [Rope Tree], he knew Danzo better.

For the sake of the overall situation of Konoha, the third generation finally sighed, looked at Danzo, and said: "Then... I will leave this matter to you. I don't want to hear any more bad news."

As soon as these words came out, Danzo showed a smile. The third generation was still the same third generation, indecisive and putting interests first.

He responded: "This is natural. I also don't want any bad news. After all, this is for the village!"

For the village...

Sandai recited it silently in his heart.

Sorry! Rope Tree.

For the safety of the village, I can only do this.
