Break Konoha's Spine!

Hearing Danzo, many people frowned, but all chose to remain silent. They preferred to believe that Danzo was really thinking this way, otherwise exposing such a shameful matter to outsiders would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Konoha's prestige and cohesion.

Roy found it amusing but didn't bother to expose him directly.

"Since that's the case, then I'll move on to the second question. There's something I'm puzzled about. Danzo's 'Root' should also be a very powerful force, so why didn't we see Danzo or your subordinates during Pain's attack? In fact, as far as I know, Danzo didn't seem to appear during Orochimaru's Leaf Destruction Plan three years ago or the Nine- Nine-Tails' attack seventeen years ago either. Don't tell me you were just out on missions those days!"

"Only by letting Pain destroy the village thoroughly enough can Tsunade leave an indelible stain. After she retires from the position of Hokage, I will take the initiative to contact the Fire Country Daimyo and have him directly appoint me as the Sixth Hokage. For this purpose, I even specially killed that stinky toad who went to Mount Myoboku to inform him of the war!" Danzo's expression changed slightly as he realized that his body was once again speaking his inner thoughts uncontrollably.

"What?! You actually killed Kosuke?!" Fukasaku asked in disbelief.

"What a vicious heart! I never imagined that the Second Hokage would have such a despicable disciple as you!" Shima also angrily accused.

Tsunade did not stop him, but instead looked coldly at Danzo. If he only wanted her to step down, it would be fine, but he should never have done such a brutal thing as leaving someone to die or even killing an ally in order to seize power. This is beyond inhuman; he is a devil in human skin!

"Hmph, if you had supported me to succeed Hiruzen from the beginning, none of this would have happened. I wouldn't have had to sit idly by and watch Hiruzen die during the Leaf Destruction Plan, nor would I have remained silent during the Nine-Tails' rampage. So, it's all your fault!"

"Danzo, aren't you trying to absolve yourself of all responsibility? Wasn't it you and I who spearheaded the human experimentation program back then? Otherwise, I alone couldn't have obtained the First Hokage's body cells from that old man. Besides, quite a few members of the Root organization suffered physical collapse after having Sage Body cells implanted. Heh, you were the one who said not to disturb the dead, yet you were the one who actively dismembered the Hokage's body. Danzo, you really put on a good show!" Orochimaru exposed him mercilessly.

"What?! You guys actually..." Tsunade felt like her lungs were about to explode with anger. Even her grandfather, who founded Konoha, had been treated like this. They even secretly used the village's ninjas for those horrifying human experiments. It seemed that Roy was right. Konoha was indeed rotting and decaying from the root!

"So what? If the secret of the First Hokage's strength can be revealed to the public, allowing Konoha to stand at the pinnacle of the Shinobi World, then all these sacrifices are worthwhile. I'm sure the Hokage would be very gratified if he knew this in the afterlife!" Danzo argued with a gloomy expression.

"Then what does Danzo think about contacting me to launch the Leaf Destruction Plan? Could it be that this is also for the future of Konoha?" Orochimaru looked at Danzo with a smile and dropped another shocking secret.

"What? The Leaf Destruction Plan back then was actually..." Kakashi and the others couldn't believe it. They never expected that the disaster back then originated from within. Behind the light that illuminated Konoha, how much unknown darkness was hidden!

"Of course, only after destruction can there be new life. Hiruzen has been in the position of Hokage for too long, and has become weak, incompetent, and easily bullied. For the future of Konoha, I have no choice but to harden my heart and end that wrong history as soon as possible. Temporary bloodshed and sacrifice are better than Konoha continuing to decline under Hiruzen's leadership!" Danzo said righteously, ignoring the insults around him.

While the surrounding Konoha villagers were angrily cursing, they were also filled with shame. Whether it was Pain's plan to destroy Konoha today or the suffering Konoha had experienced in the past, it now seemed that everything was their own doing. This left them, who prided themselves on being righteous and just, feeling lost and confused, unsure of how to face this familiar yet unfamiliar village.

"Danzo..."

"Enough!"

Orochimaru was about to reveal more, but Tsunade unleashed a powerful roar, and with a force capable of splitting mountains, struck Danzo's chest, shattering his heart in Danzo's incredulous gaze.

Seeing this, everyone fell silent, even the two Hokage advisors, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, wisely refrained from saying anything more.

If Pain destroyed Konoha's physical body, then Danzo destroyed Konoha spirit. If he continued to speak, it would only make the already demoralized Konoha more divided and unable to maintain its unity.

Death is Danzo's best end!

However, something unexpected happened: Shimura Danzo, who was supposed to be dead, was resurrected from the void.

"How is this possible? This is..." Everyone was so surprised that they were speechless and could not tell what was going on. If Pain's salvation was due to the power of the Sage of Six Paths, which they could accept to some extent, then the fact that Danzo, who looked like he didn't have many days left to live, could be resurrected was just too disregard for death!

Instead, Shizune and the other two exchanged glances and exclaimed in shock, "The supreme eye technique of the Sharingan, Izanagi?"

At this point, Danzo hide anything. He ripped off the bandage on his right arm, revealing ten Sharingan embedded within. A horrifying face appeared on his shoulder, so bizarre and disgusting that it sent chills down one's spine at first glance.

"I never expected you to have such insight. That's right, this is the forbidden eye technique Sharingan, a supreme genjutsu that can allow people to escape the punishment of death and break the boundary between illusion and reality, Izanagi!" Danzo a dry voice.

"Sharingan? Where did you get these ten Sharingan? Could it be... that you were behind the Uchiha massacre ten years ago?" Kakashi questioned in a deep voice.

"That's... the face of the First Hokage. It seems Orochimaru was right. You were indeed involved behind those inhumane human experiments!" Tsunade roared angrily.

Roy revealed a barely perceptible smile. If he hadn't released his control over Danzo's body, the guy probably wouldn't have been able to activate Izanagi until his death.

After all, only by completely destroying the spirit of Konoha can the Dream Realm seize the opportunity to fill the void!
