Senju Tobirama looked at the secrets of Root uncovered by the investigation and truly felt like returning to the Pure Land to settle accounts with that evil little Shimura brat.
The disciple he had protected at the cost of his life had actually turned out like this. He might as well have died at the hands of Kumogakure ninja.
Wiping out the Uchiha Clan for plotting a coup could still be explained as protecting Konoha and upholding the Hokage's authority.
But aside from that, Shimura Danzō had done no shortage of other things.
Senju Tobirama saw no protection of Konoha—only Shimura Danzō resorting to every possible means to strengthen Root, even at the expense of Konoha's interests as a whole.

Mitokado Homura defended himself.

Senju Tobirama slammed his palm onto the desk and stared expressionlessly at Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.

Anything that could undermine Konoha's stability and prosperity, even if
