Little Kakashi's Story (Third Update!)
Many of Konoha's forbidden techniques were invented by Tobirama Senju.
Although Tobirama Senju had a terrible reputation, Orochimaru didn't have any moral fastidiousness and he did indeed greatly admire the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju.
After all, Tobirama Senju's actions truly brought power to Konoha.
But·
Simply obtaining Shirou Emiya's body is not enough.
Orochimaru still needs to find a way to obtain the Impure World Reincarnation.
Orochimaru secretly infiltrated the secret Secret Chamber forbidden techniques were sealed, only to find that the Impure World Reincarnation was not in the Forbidden Jutsu Chamber. He only found a technique for immortality that satisfied him more.
Unfortunately, this forbidden technique is extremely difficult to learn.
Because this forbidden technique involves the soul, Orochimaru had never paid attention to before, the study of the soul is a completely new field, which even Orochimaru, who considered himself to be knowledgeable enough, found somewhat difficult.
Fortunately.
Tsunade is always traveling.
Orochimaru believed he still had plenty of time.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Impure World Reincarnation should still be on the Book of Seals, which is under the Hokage's control, and he should be able to find that forbidden technique.
During this period, the situation within Miyō began to deteriorate.
The victory in the Second Shinobi World War also resulted in heavy losses for Konoha, which at one point had to send newly graduated students from the Ninja School to the battlefield. In order to improve the strength of the village, the Konoha High Command finally touched on forbidden things, just like their teacher Tobirama Senju.
For example·
Cells of Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage.
During a routine meeting of Konoha High Command, Shimura Danzo brought up the matter of their need to use human experiments to restore the First Hokage's Wood Release power.
"This is an insult to the First Hokage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked worried, as if he was still hesitant about the matter. "If the villagers find out..."
As the Third Hokage of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen grew older and felt the weight of his responsibilities more and more. He had to consider the feelings of the Konoha ninjas on one hand, and the imminent threats from the outside world on the other.
"Hiruzen".
"Haven't you seen the true nature of this Shinobi World War yet?"
Shimura Danzo's face was already bandaged. He held a cup of tea in his hand and said in a deep voice, "This war is not just over. The next war may come sooner. To protect Miyō, we should spare no effort. We must find a way to regain the power of the First Hokage. Keeping the entire experiment a secret is enough."
"Then let Danzo take charge."
Hokage Advisor Utatane Koharu agreed to Shimura Danzo's proposal.
"This experiment must be kept strictly confidential."
Hokage Advisor Mitokado Homura also did not object to this matter.
"But"
Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed to their proposal, but also set his bottom line. "If any major problems arise during the experiment, it must be stopped immediately!"
"How can human experimentation possibly be absolutely safe?"
Shimura Danzo casually mentioned the human lives as the price, but he also took the opportunity to bring up another matter. "If we could obtain some of that gentleman's knowledge, perhaps we could reduce the casualties in our experiments. After all, he was the greatest medical ninja and the first person to use human surgery for treatment—"
"That gentleman's soul has long since ascended to heaven."
Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended not to know what Shimura Danzo.
"Actually·""
"I did get a little information."
Shimura Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, not believing his old friend hadn't noticed. "I heard Tsunade brought back a Crystal Coffin from Shikkotsu Forest."
This matter did not escape the notice of Shimura Danzo.
Initially, Shimura Danzo had only put the matter aside because of Tsunade's status and the fact that she was keeping a close eye on him, fearing that Tsunade's overreaction would cause chaos within Konoha, and also because he had not yet learned the Impure World Reincarnation.
Now··
Tsunade has left Konoha.
During this period of silence, Shimura Danzo believed it was time to bring up the matter. Konoha had already recovered the other half of Shirou Emiya's body, and now there was only one troublesome problem: no one in Konoha had mastered the Reincarnation Technique.
In order to learn the Impure World Reincarnation, Shimura Danzo took the Impure World Reincarnation from the Secret Chamber, which is why Orochimaru never found it.
However, when he actually witnessed the difficulty of learning the Impure World Reincarnation, Shimura Danzo really didn't have the confidence. Fortunately, he also knew that the real key to this forbidden technique was not the caster, but the Shirou Emiya was resurrected by this forbidden technique.
Now·
Shimura Danzo only needed someone who could use this forbidden technique to revive Shirou Emiya.
Shimura Danzo knew the Konoha ninja very well. If anyone in Konoha could learn the Impure World Reincarnation, then the most likely person to use this forbidden technique was the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was known as the Professor of Ninjutsu in the Shinobi World.
As for Sarutobi Hiruzen using the Impure World Reincarnation to bring Shirou Emiya back to the human world, then the rest was no longer something for the Third to worry about. Shimura Danzo had quite a bit of experience in how to use Shirou Emiya.
Back when Shimura Danzo was young, he accompanied Shirou Emiya on his ten-year journey through the Shinobi World. He knew Shirou Emiya's kindness very well, and it would have been easy for him to use Shirou Emiya to do things for Konoha. He even believed that he could do it better than his teacher, Tobirama Senju!
But·
Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately refused!
"We absolutely cannot use that gentleman any longer!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately objected, recalling the conflict between their comrade Akimichi Torifu and their teacher Tobirama Senju, and the humiliating past of Konoha during that period!
To be frank, the only thing that Shimura Danzo didn't get to become Hokage was that he never did!
Sarutobi Hiruzen was well aware that he had been living his Third Hokage position with great trepidation. Over the years, he had put in so much effort to ensure the peace and well-being of the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, and to restore Konoha's honor. He did not want to relive that past!
Those who survived the First Shinobi World War didn't die!
If Konoha were to spread the news about Shirou Emiya at this time, wouldn't it be as if they were already disgusted by the humiliation their fathers had suffered in the Land of Grass?
Even if they can use Emiya Tsuchihara to become powerful, Sarutobi Hiruzen can't even imagine what will happen in the future if Konoha's reputation is damaged again.
Even if he chose death like his teacher Tobirama Senju, he could not restore Konoha's reputation. Both of Konoha's Hokage relied on saints like Shirou Emiya. In particular, after taking office, he personally told other ninja villages that he would no longer use the Impure World Reincarnation. Once he broke such a promise, would anyone still believe in Konoha's credibility?
"Hiruzen, but you should also know—"
Shimura Danzo also offered his opinion, his eyes fixed on Sarutobi Hiruzen, and addressed the question that Sarutobi Hiruzen was most concerned about, "If we can utilize that gentleman again, it means that more people in the village will be able to survive in the future."
"Danzo!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen angrily rejected Shimura Danzo, believing his longtime friend was completely out of touch. "Do you want the next generation in the village to feel, like our comrade Torifu, that living a humiliating life is worse than death?!"
At first·
The accusations against Akimichi Torifu are still ringing in my ears!
How dare Shimura Danzo bring up old matters again!
During this period, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, gradually realized the importance of a good reputation. In times of peace, it could bring more missions to Konoha, and in times of war, it could also create a better diplomatic environment. This was something that was difficult to obtain with money and power.
"No one in Konoha is allowed to practice the Impure World Reincarnation. This is a prohibition from the Hokage, and anyone who violates this prohibition will be severely punished!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen, worried that Shimura Danzo was still unwilling to give up, immediately issued a Hokage decree here, prohibiting Shimura Danzo from taking advantage of any loopholes in this matter.
"Hiruzen— "
Shimura Danzo wanted to say a few more words of advice.
"Immediately abandon those unrealistic ideas!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression darkened, and he rebuked in a deep voice, "I know better than you the consequences of using that forbidden technique to revive that person. You've been handling intelligence work in the village lately, but your narrow-mindedness due to considerations of profit has made you completely oblivious to how important Konoha's reputation is to us..."
"No one is allowed to touch that forbidden technique!"
"And absolutely no one is allowed to touch the Crystal Coffin in the medical Secret Chamber!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude was exceptionally stern, showing no sign of weakness whatsoever on this matter.
Shimura Danzo's face turned extremely ugly. He had never been subjected to such an embarrassing accusation before. He simply picked up his Ninja Blade and tried to leave.
"Hiruzen, you'll regret this."
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
After Sarutobi Hiruzen speaking, he stared intently at Shimura Danzo's back, hoping that the Hokage's will could be conveyed to his old friend!
"All Konoha ninja must abide by the Hokage's absolute prohibitions. Anyone who violates these prohibitions will be severely punished, even those who are the Hokage Assistant!"
!
Shimura Danzo slammed the meeting room door shut. The two Hokage Advisor watched their old friends argue over the matter and couldn't help but exchange glances, though they were also unable to discern right from wrong.
On the one hand·
Shirou Emiya's influence is naturally waning.
On the other hand, Shimura Danzo's proposal was also beneficial to Konoha.
If Konoha can keep the matter of Shirou Emiya a secret, they can use Shirou Emiya power to improve Konoha combat strength in the future. As for attracting criticism and attacks from other ninja villages, Konoha seems to be in a state of hostility with other major ninja villages, especially their former ally, Hidden Cloud Village.
Even the Hidden Cloud Village recently attempted to kidnap the second Nine-Tails Jinchuriki candidate that Konoha had prepared in advance, and the former alliance has long since broken down.
"Snort."
After leaving the Hokage Building, Shimura Danzo glanced back coldly and then chose another direction on his own.
It's a bit of a pity because Sarutobi Hiruzen was the most likely to learn the Impure World Reincarnation.
After thinking for a moment, Shimura Danzo remembered the young man who was very interested in all kinds of techniques and knowledge. If the Hokage's disciple used this Impure World Reincarnation to revive Shirou Emiya, then he couldn't be blamed!
Just.-
That Crystal Coffin...
The other party has always been in charge of managing it.
Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru were of one mind.
Since Shimura Danzo possessed the scroll of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Orochimaru had obtained Shirou Emiya's Crystal Coffin, all that remained was for Orochimaru to slowly learn the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
Just·
The two of them also used this opportunity to collude with each other.
For example, in the case of the Hashirama Cells human transplantation experiment, the large-scale deaths of the test subjects caught the attention of Sarutobi Hiruzen, who ordered the plan to be stopped. However, Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru colluded and chose to continue the experiment.
The key point remains the Impure World Reincarnation.
As for Shimura Danzo, he believed that once he completed the Impure World Reincarnation and obtained Shirou Emiya, the other problems would be easier to solve.
"What a pity."
"I've never met that gentleman before."
Orochimaru was very interested in Shimura Danzo's enthusiasm, and seemed not to understand why Shirou Emiya would be so interested in people like Shimura Danzo and Tsunade.
"Snort-"
As Shimura Danzo grew older, his temperament became increasingly extreme. His assessment of Shirou Emiya was reduced to a single sentence. "Just a person who is very easily manipulated—".
Certainly.
The other people in Konoha certainly wouldn't think that way.
For example, in a small family in Konoha, a little boy who was growing up was very curious and asked his father about the bedtime stories about Shirou Emiya that he heard every day.
"Has such a perfect person ever truly existed in the world?"
"Of course it existed."
Hatake Sakumo chuckled softly, a slight smile playing on his lips. The wrinkles around his lips made him appear considerably older. "Let me tell you a secret," he said, "I've personally witnessed someone so perfect!"
"Dad's trying to lie again."
Little Kakashi, like a little adult, tried to hide under the covers, angrily reminding him, "I'm not a two or three-year-old anymore, that person has been dead for over a thousand years—"
"Ha ha ha ha--""
Hatake Sakumo patted his little head and chuckled as he brought up another matter, "Daddy has to go out for a bit, maybe..."
"Are we going on a mission? I can take care of myself!"
Little Kakashi quickly indicated that he could do it.
"I'll be back as soon as possible."
Hatake Sakumo patted Little Kakashi's head and turned off the light for his son, plunging the entire room into darkness.
The next moment.
A glimmer of light appeared in the darkness.
A burst of electric light, like a splash of water, appeared at Hatake Sakumo's fingertips.
The bolt of lightning was gentle and silent, illuminating the path like a flashlight, allowing Hatake Sakumo to slowly walk out of the dark room.
"Storm Release?"
Little Kakashi sneaked out from under the covers and watched his father leave his room. He already knew that it was the Storm Release Bloodline Limit, and that if he trained hard in the future, he could awaken that power within him.
However·
This little guy would never have imagined this.
Hatake Sakumo's mission was fraught with difficulties, so much so that when his father returned, it caused a dramatic change in this already incomplete family.
