Danzo's struggle gradually turned into calm, his eyes were lifeless like a puppet, his will was completely sealed, and his soul was imprisoned by these white fragments.

"It seems that the improvement has failed a bit." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed. After all, he was not as good as his teacher. Danzo was now under his control, but he also lost his personality.

"Is there anything else you are hiding?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked lightly.

"The Sharingan of the Uchiha mirror was secretly hidden by me to replace the eye that I lost my sight due to injury. Some time ago, I secretly used the cells of the first Hokage to conduct wood escape research."

Danzo's voice was calm and emotionless.

"You actually touched the body of the First Lord, how dare you!" Hiruzen Sarutobi sealed Danzo into the dark red coffin.

He didn't expect that Danzo's death would still shock him so much. Did Mito Uzumaki really think that he couldn't use the knife?

He then opened the door and left. As for the fact that the Cloud Ninja spy died without a complete body, he did not need to explain to the ANBU specifically.

Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to Danzo's former residence, pushed aside the vigilant ANBU, and found the location of the secret grid.

Knife marks were crisscrossed, and the secret compartments hiding all of Danzo's secrets were destroyed. It was impossible to tell whether those documents were in pieces or had been taken away.

"Damn."

Then according to Danzo's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi rushed to the laboratory located in the corner of the Forest of Death.

seal.

The dark red coffin rose from the ground, and Danzo stood up slowly, his eyes dull.

"Kill everyone in the laboratory and destroy all evidence." A chill flashed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, and he ordered coldly.

Danzo lifted the barrier and ducked into the underground laboratory. Screams, wails, and pleas for mercy continued to sound. Then calm returned, and the flames burned and destroyed all clues.

A moment later, Danzo, in his reincarnated state, walked out of the laboratory and closed the sealing barrier.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, feeling a little regretful in his heart for the life lost.

Those who died just now were once part of Konoha, but unfortunately they could only become victims.

Danzo used the remains of the first Hokage to study the matter of Wood Release and did not allow any possibility of leakage.

The Reincarnation of the Earth, created by the Second Hokage, originally only used the immortality of the body of the Earth together with the technique of multiplying the detonating talisman.

In the original book, Granny Chiyo of Suna Ninja Village, the Second Tsuchikage Mu and Senju Hashirama all saw the Second Hokage use this technique together with the technique of multiplying the detonating talisman to create infinitely explosive human bombs.

Senju Hashirama also commented on the Jutsu of Reincarnation in the Earth: It is not a good ninjutsu.

This scroll was left behind by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, and it contains the technique of reincarnation in the dirty land.

Uzumaki Mito's strength has returned to its peak, which makes Sarutobi Hiruzen feel a sense of urgency. He will spend a lot of time studying the ninjutsu left by his teacher recently, including the reincarnation of the earth.

Now that Uchiha Junyu's strength was exposed, he felt more powerless in his heart. This was why he did not cancel the reincarnation of the dirty land, but instead used it as a trump card.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took back Danzo, stayed there for a moment, looked at the outline of Konoha Village, and suddenly jumped up. Half an hour later, Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting in the box of Konoha Tavern.

This is the place where they used to have dinner when they were together as a team. Later, as a few of them matured and became busy after reaching high positions, they rarely came here to have gatherings. Today he made an appointment.

The wine shop seems to have been renovated. It was very dilapidated and old when I was here last time, but now it has a brand new look. The floors and walls have been completely renovated.

The table was full of food, and Sarutobi Hiruzen was drinking alone. After a while, he went to bed and Koharu opened the door.

At this time, there were already a few strands of white hair on her head, and she had a ponytail and a diagonal flow.

"Monkey, you started eating at the party that was promised, and why is it that Danzo likes to eat?" Koharu naturally sat down when he went to bed and took a sip of sake.

"Danzo won't be here today..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.

"Why did you order so many of his favorite meals when he wasn't here?" Xiaochun asked with a frown as he went to bed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen just smiled and drank one glass after another of sake.

After a while, Mito Monoyan pushed open the door and walked in. "I'm sorry, I have some unresolved work matters, so I'm late."

He scratched his head and then looked at the table. "Hey guys, these are Danzo's favorite dishes, but why did you eat them first before he even got the monkey?"

"The changes here have been so great, I almost thought I was in the wrong place." Xiaochun sighed as he moved to bed.

"The store and the Love Fund took out a loan, and then we just renovated the entire tavern." Mito Mono still silently paid attention to the tavern where people like them often gathered. When he mentioned the Love Fund box, several people in the box unconsciously became confused.

Thinking of Uchiha Junyu.

Even though with the development of Konoha, there are countless taverns, and the taste is even more outstanding, they still choose to gather here just to retain the beauty of the past.

"Danzo, he won't come today." Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head. "Last night, he was assassinated at home and died."

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head, his eyes slightly red.

"How is it possible?" Xiaochun asked first when he went to bed, his face full of shock.

"Is there anyone in Konoha who can sneak into Danzo's house and kill him?" Mito Kabuto seemed very calm, but his nose felt a little sore.

"I don't know." Hiruzen Sarutobi took another sip of sake and sighed.

Uchiha Runyu's strength is no longer weaker than his, and telling these two old friends now will only increase their worries.

"Is there a target? It can't be the Uchiha clan, right?" Mito Kadoyan knew that Danzo's recent reconstruction was aimed at targeting the Uchiha clan.

"Probably not. I went to test Uchiha Mountain specifically this morning, and there should be no problem." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"I need your help with something about Danzo." Hiruzen Sarutobi told the two of them about Danzo secretly using the remains of the first generation to study wood escape.

"Are you suspecting that the person behind the assassination of Danzo will bring this matter to Mito-sama and ask us to help erase the traces?" Mito Monobu asked.

"Yes, he is dead. I hope that after his death, he can be regarded as a martyr." Sarutobi Hiruzen said sincerely.

Mito Monohan ate his food in silence. If he did it, it would mean that he might completely offend Mito-sama.

"I agree." Xiaochun went to bed and thought for a moment, and finally made a choice.

"I agree too. There is also Danzo's favorite dish, which is really unpalatable." Mito Kabuto raised his head. Although he was smiling, he looked extremely ugly.

"Yeah, Danzo's favorite food is really weird." After sleeping, Koharu raised his head, tears flowing silently.

A few hours later, Xiaochun was the first to ask to leave when he went to bed. He was already a bit drunk.

"Do you really not know who the murderer is?"

Mito Kadoen's expression was clear and clear. He instinctively sensed that Hiruzen Sarutobi was hiding something. How could he not know about his little thoughts?

"It's not good for you to know." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, asking the two of them to help erase the evidence was already in danger.

No one knew how furious Uzumaki Mito would be after he found out that Senju Hashirama's body had been embezzled.

In this matter, they themselves are in a morally weak position. The first Hokage is a kind of spiritual belief for Konoha.

"Danzo and I have shared life and death, and now that he is dead, I don't want to stand by and watch." Mito Katoyan stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a sincere expression that was undeniable. "But one thing I think the same as you is, let's not do this.

Tell Xiaochun!"

"Okay..." Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to be convinced and was about to speak. However, the door to the private room was pushed open directly.

"Do you both think I'm an old fool? And you, Monkey, have you been able to successfully deceive me with your lies since you were little?"

The one who opened the door was Xiaochun, who had just left. At this time, her eyes were clear and angry, and her eyebrows were standing straight up.

"Ahem." Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed slightly in embarrassment. He turned to look at Koharu who was sleeping in the room after pushing open the door. He didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Logically speaking, he should be able to detect that Xiaochun has not left, but he just drank too much and his reaction was a bit slow.

"Koharu, Monkey's idea is right. This matter is too dangerous for you to participate in." Mito Kadoyan said with a solemn expression.

"Who did you beat me up?" Xiaochun was furious when he went to bed.

"Koharu, you are really not suitable to participate in this matter." Mito Menyan advised Koharu who was sleeping with him.

"When did you and Danzo live and die together without me?" Koharu turned to bed and glared at Mito Kado.

"I'm confused, neither of you are suitable to participate in this matter." Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and wanted to leave.

"What do you mean?" Mito Kadoyan pulled Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Do you think we two are people who are greedy for life and afraid of death?" Xiaochun said angrily when he went to bed.

"You two are not afraid of death, but think about the Mito clan and the Tensho clan, how can they withstand the storm?"

Mito and Tengo were ninja clans that relied on the Senju clan during the Warring States Period. There were only a few ninjas in the past, and they were the anchors of these two small ninja clans.

Both of them were stunned. They were no longer hot-blooded and impulsive teenagers. They were hiding behind the scenes and calculating people's hearts. They were the helmsmen of the two major ninja clans, carrying the hopes and responsibilities of the entire clan.

"You two are really not suitable to participate in this matter, so just leave it to me." Sarutobi Hiruzen bypassed Mito Mono and went out to leave.

This time, both of them were silent, and no one said anything to stop him. After a while, Koharu, who went to bed, opened the door first and left. Mito Kadoru slumped down on the chair again, staring at the wine glass in front of him in silence.

Then, drink it all in one gulp!

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked extremely tired after leaving the tavern. If you look carefully, you will find that the fire in the old man's eyes has almost dissipated, and all that is left is weighing the pros and cons and the desire for power.

They will be angry because of Danzo's death, but anger alone is not enough. When reason returns to the high ground, it means that the anger has dissipated, and in the end what is left is to weigh the pros and cons.

In the beginning, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no intention of telling them about the murderer of Danzo. At eight years old, he was stronger than the Kage level. Do they really dare to be hostile to him?

Even he himself struggled countless times whether he should avenge Danzo or not.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's back looks extremely old, his steps are light, like a hero in his twilight years.

"Nothing can go back." He sighed softly and slowly walked into the Uchiha clan.
