As we all know...
The Senju Clan, Uzumaki Clan, Uchiha, the three great bloodline clans, were all wiped out during Hiruzen Sarutobi's reign.
What exactly happened?
Right and wrong are difficult to determine!
Even though AB (Akira Boku) wanted to portray Hiruzen Sarutobi as a heroic figure, giving him a dignified exit by dying in the battle to protect Konoha, it couldn't stop the gossip and conspiracy theories. Later, they even introduced Shimura Danzō as a scapegoat to Hiruzen Sarutobi. However, this huge burden of blame... obviously... couldn't be borne by Shimura Danzō alone.
As the Third Hokage of Konoha, with the Anbu under his command, who could truly bypass the Anbu's eyes and secretly do things behind Hiruzen Sarutobi's back?
Does simply saying "I don't know" absolve one of all responsibility?
Stop dreaming!
certainly.
These messy affairs are destined to be a murky mess, and apart from Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzō, who are the only two people in the know, no one can fully understand what has happened in Konoha over the years.
Uchiha Nan was too lazy to spend the time figuring everything out; he could leave that to Tobirama Senju.
Tobirama would definitely be very interested.
Now.:
Uchiha Nan just wants to be a fun-loving person right now!
Stirring things up!
We must fan the flames to the bitter end!
" Tobirama, you don't actually believe that the annihilation of our three bloodline clans —the Uchiha, Senju Clan, Uzumaki Clan— has nothing to do with Hiruzen Sarutobi, do you?"
Do you really believe he's a pure, innocent white lotus?
"Spray spray spray..."
With a spirit of enjoying watching the drama unfold, Uchiha Nan began to relentlessly Hiruzen Sarutobi and others. Although he had no connection with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and had only killed Hiruzen Sarutobi in his original world because Hiruzen Sarutobi was in his way, the Uchiha in this world had been wiped out. After all, he was still an Uchiha, and the Clan Head of the Uchiha at that!
The Uchiha in this world was wiped out, which made Uchiha Nan very unhappy, and naturally she would not have any good feelings towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Uchiha Nan also disliked Konoha, the village of this world.
Without the Senju Clan Uchiha, can Konoha still be called Konoha?
Uchiha Nan would never accept such Konoha!
Even if Sasuke were to seek revenge against Konoha in the future, Uchiha Nan wouldn't interfere; in fact, she might even offer Sasuke some assistance.
Uchiha Nan kept talking, relentlessly using mental attacks on Tobirama Senju. Tobirama Senju's expression darkened considerably; given his cunning and intelligent nature, he was probably already mentally filling in the blanks.
but..
Tobirama Senju was always stubborn; even now, he still refused to admit that he had misjudged the situation...
"You're trying to sow discord!"
Think what you want!
"Anyway, in this world, my Uchiha still has an orphan, a boy. As long as he diligently sows the seeds and has many children, in another ten years or so, my Uchiha will still be the Uchiha!"
"But your Senju Clan only has one older woman left, almost as old as you now, and it's very likely... she's completely sterilized now, alas... it seems the Senju Clan is truly going to be wiped out..."
Uchiha Nan continued speaking in a sarcastic tone, his simple words like a sharp blade piercing Tobirama Senju's heart.
The Uchiha still has its flame!
And just like that, his Senju Clan was gone?
My Senju Clan has a history of over a thousand years and is a powerful clan comparable to the Uchiha.
Will the Uchiha be the only ones left in the Ninja world in the future?
This is absolutely outrageous!
"What, are you in a hurry?"
" Tobirama, weren't you just completely trusting your good Disciple?"
Looking at the utterly devastated and deathly-looking Tobirama Senju, Uchiha Nan's smile deepened, his tone filled with schadenfreude.
Shut up! You bastard!
"Walk!"
Where to go?
"Go see Hiruzen!"
At this moment, Tobirama Senju was in a state of turmoil, desperately wanting to find Hiruzen Sarutobi and figure out what had happened in Konoha over the past few decades.
What kind of natural disaster could have wiped out my Senju Clan, Uzumaki Clan, and Uchiha?
Could it really be, as that bastard Uchiha Nan claims, a man-made disaster?
"Hmm... I need to remind you of something first."
"You are not the Tobirama Senju of this world. The Tobirama Senju of this world is still sleeping in the Pure Land."
"And... Tobirama, if you really do find out something, that your good Disciple has done some unforgivable things to our family over the years, how do you plan to deal with him?"
Uchiha Nan probed Tobirama Senju's attitude, still hoping to see his master fight to the death and the Hokage die a violent death.
If Tobirama Senju hesitates and can't bring himself to strike, it would truly disappoint Uchiha Nan, who enjoys having fun.
"Hmph, so what!"
"Even if Hiruzen Sarutobi is from any other world, he is still my disciple. Moreover, the me in this world personally appointed Hiruzen as the Third Hokage, just like me. He has made such a mess of Konoha, can't I discipline my disciple on behalf of the me in this world?"
"And Uchiha Nan, you definitely know something, you bastard, you just want to see me make a fool of myself... If Hiruzen really does... I won't show any mercy!"
Tobirama Senju Senju's eyes darted warily toward Uchiha Nan, who was watching the spectacle, his red pupils flashing with a fierce light.
Uchiha Nan!
You inherently evil Uchiha brat, all you ever do is laugh at me!!
asshole!!!
Hiruzen Sarutobi, you too, you bastard!!!
The Hokage's office.
A crystal ball sits on the desk.
"I can't be wrong..."
" Danzo, what have you been doing behind my back?!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi paced back and forth in his office, occasionally taking a puff from his pipe to calm his restless emotions.
Just recently.
Hiruzen Sarutobi usually squats in his office, using his crystal ball to survey everything in Konoha, and then he noticed a familiar yet unfamiliar face.
Tobirama Senju appeared openly on the streets of Konoha. Time had passed, and the villagers had long forgotten the Second Hokage, enjoying a hard-won peace under the towering presence of the Third Hokage. Even when a few villagers recognized his face, they quickly walked away; after all, they were busy, and Tobirama Senju was dead, dead for many years...
The person in front of me is just someone who looks a lot like the Second Hokage.
but.
Hiruzen Sarutobi recognized Tobirama Senju Konoha look exactly like his master?
His years of experience as Hokage told him...
Something unusual must be going on!
There is only one person in Konoha who would dare to do something like this.
Danzo!
What exactly do you want?
As a Ninjutsu expert, he knew almost all the Ninjutsu in Konoha.
Is it the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu?
How dare you disturb the peace of your master's soul after death?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Thinking about this...
Hiruzen Sarutobi's worries deepened. What would it be like if he really met his teacher?
During his years as Hokage, he had both merits and demerits for Konoha. His merits were widely known in Konoha, but as for his faults...
This is truly the weakest point Konoha has ever been.
Once upon a time, Konoha was synonymous with power!
The glory of Konoha when the First Hokage founded it! Several of the most powerful bloodline clans in the Ninja world were based in Konoha. Hashirama Senju alone could suppress the entire Ninja world. Even without Hashirama Senju, Konoha could still defeat the Four Great Ninja Villages with its own strength.
Even without mentioning the period when the First and Second Hokage.
Konoha had White Fang, Sannin Minato Namikaze. Further into the future, there were also new generation geniuses like Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha Shisui.
But... he played a winning hand terribly.
White Fang committed suicide, Sannin, one of the Orochimaru, defected, and the bloodline limit of the clans dwindled.
The new generation of ninjas has not yet grown up, and there is a lack of capable leaders at the top. The few remaining prominent figures— Princess Tsunade and Jiraiya— are currently traveling outside the village and are rarely seen there.
This is the answer sheet.
Hiruzen Sarutobi really dared not.
Teacher... can you understand my predicament?
Hiruzen, you were looking for me?
Shimura Danzō urgently summoned by Hiruzen Sarutobi. Although he didn't want to be bossed around like this by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Hiruzen Sarutobi was the Hokage, so... Shimura Danzō pushed open the door and came in with a displeased expression.
" Danzo, I truly regret indulging you all these years."
What exactly did you do behind San's back?
Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke with a grim expression and difficulty.
Shimura Danzō looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with his one eye, his mind quickly recalling what he had done for Hiruzen Sarutobi over the years.
Did Hiruzen discover that he had recently been colluding with Orochimaru, or was it because of Hashirama Cells experiments, or perhaps because of the Uchiha's Sharingan?
There's just too much to do!
Hiruzen, if you want to cause trouble, you might as well just say it outright.
Some blame won't be taken for you!
" Hiruzen, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's questioning.
Shimura Danzō only briefly before immediately beginning to deny it.
Regardless of what happened, if you didn't do it, you didn't do it!
unless...
Hiruzen Sarutobi can produce the irrefutable evidence right now, but everything San has done has been for Konoha!
"Enough! You're still being stubborn!"
" Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth and uttered the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu. He knew his old friend's personality all too well; he always loved to be stubborn!
Shimura Danzō's expression changed. How could Hiruzen know that he had actually funded Orochimaru's research on the Impure World Reincarnation, which involved a taboo of Konoha —human experimentation?
There's nothing I can do about it...
A researcher will inevitably choose any means to obtain funding. If someone can only make empty promises, then they are obviously not qualified. Orochimaru is clearly an extremely outstanding researcher.
The pie in his picture looks so delicious!
Orochimaru, in order to swindle funds from Shimura Danzō, claimed that he could research a new version of the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, in which the Impure World Reincarnation dead could possess strength close to that of their former selves.
As expected.
Shimura Danzō money to Orochimaru, even though he knew Orochimaru was definitely exaggerating the success of his experiments.
However, even if the Impure World Reincarnation, it would still be a terrifying technique... At that time... as long as one masters this technique... three...
"Hmph, Hiruzen, three..."
"Even at this point, you still don't want to tell San the truth?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's low voice revealed pent-up anger, and Shimura Danzō, who knew him very well, could clearly see that Hiruzen Sarutobi was truly enraged.
However, Shimura Danzō was not one to back down and admit his mistakes.
" Hiruzen, all of this is for Konoha!"
"For the sake of Konoha, you think you can talk like that? Danzo, you have to give San an explanation for this!"
" Hiruzen, you'll regret this!"
"Enough, Danzo! I am the Hokage!"
The two still couldn't reach an agreement. Shimura Danzō waved his sleeve and was about to turn around and leave when, before the door could even slam shut, Shimura Danzō Hiruzen Sarutobi his way.
Tobirama- sama is still wandering around Konoha!
Danzo, you bastard, you've caused this mess, and now you want to run away? You want me to go see the teacher alone and clean up your mess?
dream!
Leave the three of them behind!
When he meets the teacher, there are some things he may want to take the blame for, but he can't.
First, Sanke knew exactly what Danzo had done behind his back. Second, even if something had happened, there was no suitable way to resolve it at the time. Third, perhaps Sanke should have taken action, but by then it was too late, and nothing could have been done. Finally, perhaps he could have done something back then, but now it was too late.
The Uchiha...
Such is the tragedy!
Danzo, it's all your fault!
"Hmph, Danzo, you're going to see the teacher with San! Utatane Koharu Mitokado Homura will be here soon too!"
"Teacher? What teacher?"
Shimura Danzō looked puzzled.
He had absolutely no idea what Hiruzen Sarutobi was talking about.
" Danzo, even at this point, you're still being stubborn!"
" Tobirama- sensei is now in Konoha, how could this not be related to you?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi pulling at Shimura Danzō. He hadn't expected Danzo to still be so stubborn. How infuriating!
"Of course it has nothing to do with me!"
Shimura Danzō had already realized something.
Suddenly, a black pot is about to be placed on his head, and it's very likely that Hiruzen is deliberately trying to pin this on him. He's done this once or twice already!
"Alright, there's no point in arguing about this anymore. The teacher will probably be coming to us soon!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi noticed that Danzo was more stubborn than usual today, even admitting that his teacher's appearance was related to him. But at this point, this matter was actually quite important. What was important was how Konoha should take the blame for all these years when they went to see their teacher later.
Danzo, we still need you!
