Just Got Back to the Village, and the 5.5th Hokage Is Already Here! (Please support the stats!) / Danzō's Bandages Are Ripped Off in Public! (Please support the stats!)

I immediately rolled over and started writing.

Just Back in the Village, and the 5.5th Hokage Arrives! (Please Support with Data)

Although Kisame joined the group and stayed silent, everyone still had a decent impression of him.

After all, no one disliked an honest person.

Instead, they felt sympathetic about what he had been through.

Might Guy: Interesting. I want to fight you next time.

Honest Kisame: ...

Honest Kisame really had become mute.

Hashirama Senju: So, the strongest among the newcomers is represented by Might Guy, while the honest trait is represented by Kisame Hoshigaki.

Hashirama Senju: Then who represents the other traits—peace, lust-gambling-drugs, and blind loyalty?

Tobirama Senju raised a question.

This was something Hashirama was very interested in.

Of course.

What interested him was the gambling in lust-gambling-drugs.

Although the First Hokage had many great achievements, he had a hobby of gambling. Small bets were harmless fun, and he had even led his granddaughter astray.

[Are you sure you want to know?]

The system gave a prompt.

Tobirama Senju: I want to know who has blind loyalty.

Brother of Hashirama Senju: I don't really care.

Tobirama Senju: Of course you don't. You died too early. You never even saw Konoha.

Brother of Hashirama Senju: Tobirama Senju, I've noticed you've become rather arrogant. Being too wild will get you killed!

Tobirama Senju: I'm already dead. What do I have to fear?

Brother of Hashirama Senju: Are you taking advantage of my big brother not being here?

Hashirama Senju: Tobirama, don't bully Izuna. His death contributed to the foundation of Konoha. Without that, we could not have formed an alliance with the Uchiha Clan and established Konoha.

Tobirama Senju: Big Brother, who's actually your little brother here?!

[All right, stop arguing. I will now reveal the traits of the currently known Kage-level powerhouses.]

The system gave another prompt.

Minato and the others hurriedly looked over.

After all, these were people with Kage-level strength who also possessed distinctive traits.

So who were they?

Peace—Deva Path Pain

Honest Kisame: !

Kisame, who had just said he would keep quiet, made a sound.

That was quite an unexpected reaction.

Even when the Senju brothers had started arguing, he had restrained himself.

So... this Deva Path Pain was someone he knew.

Mei Terumi immediately took notice.

When Kisame had refused to return before, he had joined a new organization. Did that mean... Deva Path Pain was also a member of Kisame's organization?

It was not just Mei Terumi. Kakashi also paid close attention.

After all, in the Hidden Leaf Village where he currently was, the only people who could be considered to possess Kage-level strength were those three elders and the Third Hokage.

So, even for the safety of his village, he had to pay attention to Kage-level powerhouses from other ninja villages.

Thus, he remembered the name Deva Path Pain.

However, the system did not seem to intend to provide any detailed introduction and immediately moved on to the next trait.

[The Kage-level powerhouse possessing the trait of blind loyalty is—Itachi Uchiha of Konoha.]

Minato Namikaze: It's actually Itachi!

Honest Kisame: !

Kisame made another sound.

Hmm...

Everyone immediately realized it. So Itachi was also in the new organization Kisame belonged to now.

Kisame Hoshigaki, Itachi Uchiha.

Minato Namikaze: Itachi actually has the trait of blind loyalty?

Might Guy: Itachi Uchiha has been a Rogue Ninja wanted by Konoha for six years.

Although Might Guy spent most of his time training, that did not mean he was not attentive.

After all, he had always stayed by Kakashi's side. Kakashi had faced one tragedy after another since childhood, so if Guy had not paid close attention to him, Kakashi might have completely broken down and shut himself off after the deaths of his father, Obito, Rin, and then his teacher and teacher's wife.

Hashirama Senju: Is this Itachi the one who massacred the Uchiha Clan and wiped them out? He actually has the trait of blind loyalty?

Could there be some hidden truth behind the clan massacre?

Brother of Hashirama Senju: What? My Uchiha Clan was completely massacred?

Izuna hurriedly chimed in.

He already knew that after his death, his older brother Madara Uchiha had formed an alliance with Hashirama Senju and founded Konoha together with him.

The era of endless mutual slaughter had ended, and the ninja world had entered the age of ninja villages.

And now, several decades had passed in the blink of an eye.

Knowing that his brother had actually endured enough to form an alliance with Hashirama Senju after his death had already made him upset.

And now... the Uchiha Clan had been wiped out?

What kind of drug had Hashirama Senju fed Madara Uchiha?

Wasn't the Uchiha Clan completely finished now?!

Izuna simply could not understand it.

Minato Namikaze: Lord Izuna, calm down. Calm down.

Minato gently told Izuna everything he knew about the Uchiha massacre.

Brother of Hashirama Senju: So that's how it was.

However, Izuna had learned not only that the Uchiha Clan had been exterminated, but also that although his brother Madara had reconciled with Hashirama, he had eventually left Konoha and even turned around to attack it.

That proved such a weak alliance was not what his brother had wanted either.

And Madara leaving alone showed that the Uchiha Clan had not followed him, instead becoming immersed in comfort.

Then...

As for the current outcome...

Izuna chose to ignore it.

Izuna fell silent, and the others began discussing the matter.

Minato Namikaze: From what I know, since Itachi Uchiha is Fugaku's son, and Fugaku once spoke to me about the Uchiha Clan, I believe they are all people who think carefully.

Might Guy: So there really was some secret behind the massacre?

Tobirama Senju: I only need to ask the monkey to find out.

Might Guy: Monkey?

Tobirama Senju: Your Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi. Hiruzen... what exactly have you been doing?!

The Second Hokage sighed.

[Beep!]

[Today's three-hour observation of Kitahara Kaede has begun.]

The system began issuing prompts.

Everyone also saw an image appear on the screen before them.

Minato Namikaze and Kakashi hurriedly logged off. After all, Kakashi was Team 7's guiding Jonin, and he still had to act together with Kitahara Kaede and the others.

They were currently at a crossroads.

"Then we'll part ways here."

Mei Terumi also logged off from the small group.

She was taking Zabuza and the others back to Kirigakure.

"I'm looking forward to our next meeting." Mei Terumi waved at Team 7.

Kakashi glanced over and knew Mei Terumi was waving at Kitahara Kaede.

Thus, they headed toward Konoha.

After all these days of training, Sasuke and Naruto's physical fitness and Taijutsu had improved to an incredible degree.

Ordinary Jonin had no advantage at all against them.

Even Kakashi found it difficult when facing both of them attacking at once.

Even Tobirama Senju was astonished by the speed of their progress.

Kakashi had also received the Second Hokage's instructions and intended to return to the village to report to the Third Hokage and promote this Taijutsu training method.

This also meant that the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu needed to be widely adopted.

It was just unknown whether the Third Hokage would be willing to accept it.

Whether the Third Hokage accepted it or not was his own business.

Kitahara Kaede returned home.

The air was a little stuffy after several days without ventilation, so he pushed open the window. At that moment, a figure flashed in through it.

Everyone watching the screen tensed up.

Because this person was none other than the boss of Konoha's Root Organization.

The dark side that had always supported the Third Hokage from the shadows, the former student who had once tempted Kakashi and whom Tobirama Senju had called someone who had gone down the wrong path—Shimura Danzō.

However, what everyone found curious was the new prompt above Danzo's head.

[5.5th Hokage—Shimura Danzō]

Huh?

He Rips Off Danzo's Bandages in Public! (Please Support with Data)

[5.5th Hokage—Shimura Danzō]

In the eyes of everyone in the group, a man whose right eye and right arm were both wrapped in bandages entered backward through the window Kitahara Kaede had opened.

Only half of the man's face was exposed, but his appearance made him stand out.

Bandages wrapped around most of his head, leaving only his short black hair exposed.

Everyone saw the prompt above his head.

[5.5th Hokage—Shimura Danzō]

The group instantly became lively upon seeing that prompt.

Tobirama Senju: So this is... Shimura Danzō?
