As soon as Tsunade used Wood Release, he decisively abandoned his neutrality and joined Tsunade's camp. Anyone who saw this decision-making ability would have to say it was awesome.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was already on the verge of collapse, but what was to come was yet to come. After Hiashi Hyuga clearly took sides, the Inuzuka, Aburame, Yamanaka, Nara, Akimichi, and other ninja clans quickly joined the battle under the leadership of their clan leaders or Jonin representatives, and clearly sided with Tsunade.
"Lady Tsunade, the Third Hokage misjudged people and allowed Danzo to harm loyal officials. We need a new Hokage to support the overall situation. Our Inuzuka clan, Aburame clan, Akimichi clan, Yamanaka clan, and Nara clan support you as the Fourth Hokage."
"Everyone, someone is plotting to harm Lady Tsunade. We urgently need to suppress these rebels. We should follow Lady Tsunade and fight for Konoha!"
Yes, it's not Tsunade or Hakumu who are rebelling now, but the high-ranking officials led by the Third Hokage. Why are you rebelling?
Hiruzen Sarutobi was going crazy. Not only the Hyuga clan, but other ninja clans had clearly chosen sides, but none of them were on his side.
But what can be said about that?
The influence of Wood Release is truly terrifying.
"Tsunade, I didn't expect you to have this trick up your sleeve. No wonder you joined forces with Uchiha Hakubaki to stage a coup. But even if it's Wood Release, it doesn't mean you're guaranteed to win."
Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't very well admit defeat, so he needed to maintain the morale of his own forces and ensure that they wouldn't collapse because of Tsunade's Wood Release.
Fortunately, the ninjas on his side, mainly from the Anbu, the Sarutobi clan, and Root, are mostly loyal to him and Danzo, so there is no need to worry about them giving up or losing their will to fight.
"Third Hokage, I originally wanted you to leave with dignity, but since you yourself are unwilling to do so, I have no choice but to grant you dignity," Tsunade said bluntly.
My original intention was to let you leave gracefully, to save you some face, but since you didn't want to leave gracefully, I had no choice but to let you leave gracefully.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't believe in this nonsense at all, and said with a stern face, "Tsunade, there's no such thing as decorum. From the moment you joined forces with Uchiha Hakubaki, our master-disciple relationship was severed."
"Ape Demon, grow longer!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he lengthened the golden cudgel in his hand, attempting to use it to clear away the surrounding trees and prevent the power of the wood-escape technique from continuing to have an effect.
The voice of the Monkey King slowly rang out: "Hiruzen, I never expected that the first one to oppose you among your disciples would be Tsunade. I thought it would be Orochimaru."
It's really ironic, really. It didn't have a good impression of Orochimaru and thought that he would definitely do something bad, but it turned out that Tsunade was the one who stabbed her mentor in the back first.
A coup d'état is truly incomprehensible.
Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said, "Don't say anymore. Tsunade and I have different paths. We have each chosen our own ninja way. This is a clash of ideologies."
To put it more bluntly, it's a power struggle!
Chapter 87 The Innately Evil Uchiha, I'll Take Care of You!
Wood escape!
When Danzo saw Tsunade use Wood Release, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Why does she possess Wood Release?
This is impossible!
The subsequent choices made by the Hyuga and other ninja clans caused Danzo's blood pressure to spike. They were all opportunists, choosing whoever was most powerful. They were truly a group of untrustworthy individuals.
If Hiruzen says no, then the ninja clan should be dealt with.
You don't know how to sacrifice, you don't know the Will of Fire, you are not worthy of being ninjas.
Danzo wanted others to sacrifice themselves, and under the banner of the Will of Fire, he disgusted many of his fellow village ninjas. But the problem now is that Tsunade's Wood Release has been unleashed...
The pressure is huge!
Moreover, the choices made by the Hyuga and other ninja clans starkly revealed a reality: Hiruzen Sarutobi's approach was ultimately a failure, and it would have been better to learn from them.
The seal that eradicates all calamities caused by the tongue!
This thing is still the best.
If you loosen the restrictions and allow me to increase the number of people transferred from the ninja clans, the Root Clan wouldn't be so small now. Moreover, having more elites transferred from the major ninja clans would undoubtedly weaken them.
What a pity, Hiruzen, you're still too soft-hearted, far less ruthless than me.
Danzo Shimura was furious, but there was no time for anger at that moment.
We must deal with our greatest enemy.
If Hiruzen were to fight Tsunade, then...
Those evil brats from the Uchiha clan are best dealt with by this old man.
"Feng, Yusuke, you two hold off this inherently evil Uchiha brat and buy me some time." Danzo couldn't care less about Hiruzen Sarutobi's situation; taking care of himself was the most important thing.
He truly felt the pressure Bai Mu was putting on him, so he had to give it his all.
Even if it means revealing that I possess the Sharingan, it would be worth it.
With Danzo's order, Yamanaka Fu and Aburame Yusuke quickly formed a battle formation and charged towards Shiromaki. As members of Root, they didn't need to ask why; they only needed to carry out Lord Danzo's orders.
"Ninja Technique: Mind Transference!"
Yamanaka Kaze launched the first attack.
But such a childish attack, attempting to enter Bai Mu's body and seize control, is utterly delusional. The moment the attack occurs is the moment his own mind is wounded.
Before anyone realized what was happening, Shan Zhongfeng suddenly collapsed, vomiting blood, his limbs twitching uncontrollably, looking like he was having an epileptic seizure.
As for Yusuke Aburame...
Playing with insects only disgusts Bai Mu.
The power of the Ice Star Spirit was activated, freezing the person in place without them being able to move. They were instantly killed by Bai Mu's ice seal, dying a very frustrating death.
At least Yamanaka Fu launched an attack and used ninjutsu, even if it was completely ineffective and instead resulted in him being crippled by the counterattack. On the other hand, Aburame Yusuke didn't even use any ninjutsu. The difference between the two is quite significant.
"Are these your subordinates?"
Bai Mu maintained the upper half of Susanoo, his arms crossed over his chest, his posture was very relaxed, and his tone of voice was extremely arrogant.
Danzo witnessed this scene and was filled with rage.
Those damned Uchiha clans are truly disgusting.
He truly loathed the Uchiha clan.
Bai Mu had no interest in playing cat and mouse with Danzo, but in order to ruin Danzo's reputation and completely destroy the reputation of Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other high-ranking officials, there were some things he had to say.
"Danzo, there's no need to hide your trump card. I see it all clearly. I can see through your Sharingan completely."
Upon hearing this, everyone present followed Bai Mu's words and looked at Danzo.
Sharingan?
Did Danzo have Sharingan?
These words undoubtedly changed the expressions of the various ninja clans. Danzo's actions undoubtedly threatened these ninja clans, because it meant that Danzo wanted to steal bloodline limits and secret techniques.
These are the survival strategies of the ninja clan. If you take away our clan's secret techniques and bloodline limits, will they still be ours?
The Hyuga clan was deeply shocked. If the Sharingan was like this, what about their Byakugan...?
Suzaku Nara of the Nara clan was the first to speak, requesting Hiashi Hyuga to check the situation, "Clan head Hyuga, could you please use the power of your Byakugan to take a look?"
"Hitashi Hyuga, how dare you!"
Danzo was well aware of his situation, so upon hearing this, he immediately looked at Hiashi Hyuga and threatened him.
Hiashi Hyuga was initially hesitant, unsure of Tsunade's intentions, but Danzo's threat ignited his anger.
I am the head of a clan, how dare you threaten me like this?
He showed no respect to Danzo, immediately giving Danzo's body a disapproving look, and that look revealed something: Danzo's arm was actually...
nausea!
This was Hiashi Hyuga's first impression.
But at the same time, he was also shocked that so many Sharingan had been stolen, not just from the arm, but also from the eye. No wonder that eye had always been covered up...
And the arms, there's a reason for all of that...
Hiashi Hyuga said with a serious expression, "Lord Danzo, your arms are covered in Sharingan eyes, and so is your right eye. I don't know how to explain this?"
With Hiashi Hyuga's words, it was undoubtedly confirmed that Danzo possessed the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.
What does this mean?
Danzo dared to steal the Sharingan from the Uchiha clan today, and he would dare to steal the secret techniques and bloodline limits of other ninja clans tomorrow. In fact, that's exactly what he did. How many of the people in Root came from the major ninja clans?
Within the Root, there are many orphans, but even more people come from various ninja clans.
Soon, the Hyuga, Nara, and other ninja clans all looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Among these questions, Hiashi Hyuga directly inquired:
"Lord Hokage, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent. How should he answer?
This is a difficult question to answer, especially since even he didn't expect Danzo to be so ruthless. However, he himself is also partly responsible for the current situation.
It was his indulgence that led to Danzo's madness.
Just because he was a leaf bathed in sunlight, while Danzo was a root hidden underground, because he was light and Danzo was darkness, this was why Hiruzen Sarutobi repeatedly indulged him.
As long as he lives, Danzo must live.
Because he considers himself a good person, while Danzo 5.9 is an evil person.
"Third Hokage, is this your insistence?" Tsunade looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had suddenly aged considerably, and said coldly.
"Tsunade, there's no point in saying more. Our paths are different, there's nothing to say." After a long silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally gave his reply.
What else is there to say?
That's all. That's how it is now.
We've already torn off all pretense of civility, what more is there to say?
Tsunade gave Hiruzen Sarutobi a deep look before speaking, "Fine, then let me see you off with dignity!"
"Hmph, the Uchiha's eyes have fallen into Danzo's hands. Hiruzen Sarutobi must have been behind this. We can't let Hiruzen Sarutobi get away with this!"
But at this very moment, hawkish figures on the Uchiha side, such as Uchiha Mirai and Uchiha Owl, expressed strong dissatisfaction with Danzo's acquisition of the Sharingan.
