"Fuck!"

After pushing open Danzo's bedroom door and seeing his current state, Hikari couldn't help but curse.

A humanoid tree trunk stood there. His feet had turned into roots that plunged deep into the ground, while lush green branches and leaves grew from his head. Only the old face in the middle of the trunk vaguely showed that this was Danzo.

Tsunade fell silent.

Looking like this, you expect me to save him? Do you take me for a god or something?

When Tsunade first heard that Danzo was "vegetative," she had assumed he was in a normal vegetative state caused by severe brain trauma. How could she have imagined that Danzo had become a genuine "plant" person?

A vegetative patient and a "plant" person were completely different things, okay?

Whoever can save him, I'll take them as my master.

Tsunade grumbled inwardly, then turned her gaze toward Yamanaka Fu. "As a member of the Yamanaka clan, you should be quite familiar with Yin Release. Did you find any clues when you read Danzo's memories?"

When that Hikari guy acted, did he even know how to clean up afterward? What if Danzo remembered his appearance? That would be trouble!

No matter how much Tsunade and the Hidden Leaf Village's major ninja clans hated Danzo, as long as he remained a Hidden Leaf elder, he could not be allowed to die for nothing. If they truly discovered clues related to Hikari, Tsunade would have to act.

Don't misunderstand. She wasn't going after Hikari. She was going to make Root accompany Danzo to the grave.

Don't think she was heartless. This was a necessary choice for someone in power.

Hikari mattered more to Tsunade than Root put together. Sacrificing Root for him was only natural to her.

Yamanaka Fu shook his head
