Hyuga Sho closed his eyes.
"Elder Koharu... has passed away after resuscitation efforts failed!"
"..."
The scene fell silent.
Regarding Utatane Koharu's death.
Everyone expressed appropriate grief.
Everyone present was a ninja, and all of them had experienced life-and-death struggles.
Therefore, none of them reacted too badly.
"Then... what about Shimura Danzō...?"
Tsume Inuzuka asked stiffly.
"Shimura Danzō escaped. His whereabouts are unknown."
Hyuga Sho opened his eyes and replied.
"This is also what I was about to announce... You have all come here today because I want to inform you that, after deliberation by the higher-ups, Shimura Danzō has been designated an S-Rank Fugitive. If you encounter him in the future, please stay vigilant and report his whereabouts to the village as soon as possible..."
The fact that Shimura Danzō had become an S-rank Rogue Ninja.
It was not merely being announced to the Konoha Jonin present.
Soon, it would sweep through all of Konoha and even be passed on to the leaders of other ninja villages.
From now on.
Shimura Danzō would be a target hated and hunted by everyone in the Shinobi World.
Of course, if someone shared his foul tastes and wanted to recruit him.
That would be beyond Hyuga Sho's understanding.
With that.
The great deed was accomplished.
The reckoning with Shimura Danzō was complete.
Shimura Danzō had competed with the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, all his life.
In the end, because his thinking had been a step too slow, he had been abandoned by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
Shimura Danzō himself knew very well why Tobirama Senju had not chosen him.
A mouse would always be a mouse, unfit to stand in the light.
"Next..."
Hyuga Sho introduced Uchiha Izumi.
After being promoted by the Konoha High Command.
Uchiha Izumi was officially promoted
