I don't believe in the will of fire

Konoha, Hokage Rock

Shenyue clasped her hands on her chest, looking calmly at Konoha, which was filled with smoke and chaos due to the sudden explosion.

In his perception, countless serious criminals have fled towards the outside in all directions, and nearly 70% of them are holding back. Even jounin are not a minority. The high walls around Konoha may be able to

It can resist ordinary people, but for ninjas, it can be completely ignored.

A large part of the ninja power in the village has been restrained by these people, and just now, he felt the withdrawal of some of the ninjas who surrounded him.

"It seems that the plan is successful. Next, it depends on how long I can delay it here."

In fact, it would be very easy for Shenyue to escape directly at this time. Unfortunately, he was not very willing to walk away naked as a loser.

"You're here, Hokage-sama!"

Behind Shenyue's figure, Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared with a teleportation technique. At the same time, four Anbu appeared around him, blocking all his escape routes.

He looked back and saw Hiruzen Sarutobi, wearing his Hokage robe, arriving not far behind him.

"It seems that you are waiting for me, Shenyue?" Sandai looked determined, obviously having made up his mind.

"Of course!" Shenyue answered without any hesitation.

"Being able to fight against the strongest Hokage III in history is something I have always wanted to try."

"The strongest Hokage in history!"

This title made Sandai stunned. For a moment, he didn't understand whether Shenyue was teasing him or whether he really thought so. He frowned and asked, "That's why you stay here."

"Otherwise."

Sarutobi Hiruzen found that he could not judge the authenticity of Kamizuki's words at all, so he had to change the topic and asked: "Did you do the explosion in the torture room?"

Shenyue let out a long sigh and looked back at Sandai.

"Why are you still asking such a stupid question, Hokage-sama? At this point, is this boring temptation still necessary?"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, his eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice.

"It seems that Mito-sama and I both failed, and failed completely."

Hearing the name Uzumaki Mito, Shenyue couldn't help but frown.

"Does the Hokage-sama plan to start playing the emotional card like the counselor-sama and wants me to die on my own?"

"No." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said firmly: "I know you may blame me or the village for all this now, but I want to tell you, Shenyue, even time

If I come again, I will still make the same choice."

To be honest, Shenyue had no interest in boring talk at all, but since he could delay time, he wouldn't mind chatting with the third generation more.

He pretended to be curious and asked: "Oh, why is this? Is it because of my status as an alternate Jinchuuriki?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said as if he was lost in memories: "Perhaps you didn't realize it yourself. Whether it is me or Mito-sama, what makes us uneasy is not your extraordinary ninja talent.

It's not the identity of a Jinchuuriki, but the desire for power in his eyes. That desire has gone beyond what ordinary children and even adults should have. Both Mito-sama and I are worried that you will go astray because of this, so,

This is the reason why we suppressed your light."

"I see."

Sandai's words can be regarded as clearing up some doubts in Shenyue's heart.

"No wonder she supported you so much back then."

The third generation naturally understood who this 'she' was referring to.

"Yes, Mito-sama once told me that what worries her the most is that one night, when facing the Kyuubi Chakra, you showed a completely different kind of strength from Kushina.

This is also the reason why she made her final decision."

The third generation's words reminded Kamizuki that there was indeed such a thing. Unfortunately, at that time, he was obsessed with the fantasy of becoming the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails and mastering the power of the Nine-Tails, and did not notice the change in Mito's expression.

But if just using these words could push all the problems onto Shenyue, he would not accept it.

Moreover, compared to Zui Dun, he doesn't think he is any weaker than the third generation.

"If you go by that, it seems that you, the third generation, have not properly inherited the will of fire from the first generation, and you are not a qualified Hokage."

"!!!"

"What do you mean?"

Looking at the surprised Sandai, Shenyue also activated her own Mouth Escape.

"I remember that the First Hokage once said that the compatriots in Konoha Hidden Village are all part of his body. The people in the village believe in me, and he also believes in everyone. The first Hokage can even trust Uchiha Madara, but his successor

, both you, Tobirama-sama, who is the second-generation Hokage, and you, the third-generation Hokage, seem to have forgotten his words. You can't even trust a child and do such a thing to me. I don't remember what I have said in so many years.

, I did something harmful to the village, but instead worked conscientiously and worked hard without complaining..."

"..."

The third generation was silenced for an instant.

Shenyue asked without letting him go.

"So, Hokage-sama, do you still think this is all my fault?"

"In the past few years, I should have given the village several opportunities. Unfortunately, you never seized it. Instead, you abandoned me again and again."

"So, you have forgotten the teachings of the first generation, or do you only remember the sacrifice of others in Will of Fire?"

Shenyue's three consecutive sentences could be said to have made Sarutobi Hiruzen speechless. He couldn't help but recall the decisions he had made.

"Did we really make the wrong choice?"

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's hesitant look, the ANBU around him felt a little uneasy and couldn't help but speak.

"Hokage-sama, don't be fooled by this child's words. You are definitely the Hokage recognized by everyone in the village!"

"Yes, the village is becoming stronger and stronger because of you."

"For the sake of the village, sometimes it is inevitable to sacrifice some people. You have done a good job, Hokage-sama."

"..."

These words made Sandai wake up. He looked at Shenyue with firm eyes and said, "Maybe you are right, Shenyue. All the mistakes in this may be my fault. I can apologize to you on behalf of the village and make up for your recent mistakes."

All losses for years, but if you want to destroy the village, as the Hokage, I will never allow it."

"Apologise and make up for the loss?"

When Shenyue heard this, her tone was calm.

"No need, Lord Third, do you think it is meaningful to say this now?"

"It seems that you have already made up your mind, Shenyue."

Sandaime said, grabbing his Hokage robe, pulling it off, revealing the black battle armor suit underneath, and loosened the arm guards on his wrists.

"In this case, no matter what, I can't let you let it go anymore, let's do it!"
