Five Release: Great Barrage Technique

After learning of the actions of the Darkness of Konoha, Shukaku felt no joy at the prospect of revenge against the Uchiha; instead, he felt a sense of sorrow and fear.

How could a person be so evil? So many Sharingan, how many lives of the Uchiha Clan were involved? The Uchiha Clan may be domineering, but they are not evil.

Although he was somewhat resentful when he was captured by Uchiha, he never imagined he would do something like this! This Darkness of Konoha is simply inhuman!

Shukaku quickly located his position and then manipulated Shimura Danzō's body to rush towards the Darkness of Konoha. Shimura Danzō did not speak; he was deeply distressed, never expecting that his counterpart in another world would walk down such a path.

Shukaku manipulated Shimura Danzō to the location of Darkness of Konoha. By this time, Darkness of Konoha had long since stopped wailing and seemed to have given up struggling.

With a calm and relieved gaze, he looked at his past self in this timeline. "I never imagined that you would become Jinchūriki of Konoha, a core figure. It's truly enviable, truly a glorious existence."

Darkness of Konoha took a deep look at himself in this world. Sunlight fell on him, making his quicksand armor glow a bright yellow.

A few beams of light pierced through the armor and shone on Darkness of Konoha's face. "It's so warm! I wish I could stand in the sunlight too."

"Shukaku, let me say a few words to him before you make a move," Shimura Danzō in his Mental Space.

Shukaku nodded upon hearing this, but only granted Shimura Danzō the authority to control the head. It feared that the Darkness of Konoha might Shimura Danzō later, so it had to ensure that it could protect Danzo at any time.

"The Darkness of Konoha, do you regret it?" Shimura Danzō looked at the Darkness of Konoha with pity in his eyes.

Darkness of Konoha shook his head. "I don't regret it. I'm protecting Konoha in my own way, even if these methods and actions are intolerable to the world."

As if remembering something, he suddenly paused and looked at Shimura Danzō: "Could you tell me about your experiences in this world?"

Looking at his dying self in another world, Shimura Danzō one last time. Then he would join forces with Uchiha Kō to conquer Sunagakure. Uchiha Kō's trust in him and his reckless fighting style told the Darkness of Konoha.

Darkness of Konoha. He remembered when he led his troops and suffered a crushing defeat, with no one helping him and everyone ultimately blaming him.

This also distanced him further and further from the position of Hokage. Later, after he gained some power, he realized that these were all tactics used by those who wanted to curry favor with the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.

This was to ensure that no one could threaten Sarutobi Hiruzen's position after he succeeded to the throne, since Sarutobi Hiruzen represented the interests of a segment of the ninja clans.

If they want to gain benefits, they must ensure that the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage.

Darkness of Konoha remained silent. He burned the investigation results, telling himself that it wasn't Hiruzen's fault. Watching the Kakkō burn, tears streamed down his face.

He wanted to be Hokage, he desperately wanted to be.

However, he was about to die, and he wanted to hear how Shimura Danzō let go of his obsession, because even in death, he was still thinking about the scene when Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage and the test given to Teacher Tobirama.

Shimura Danzō began recounting the achievements of Uchiha Kō, such as how Susanoo killed a thousand people outside Sunagakure, how the Great Buddha fought ten thousand people at the Iwagakure, and how he caused a great disturbance at his home in Kirigakure, thus creating a deterrent effect.

Darkness of Konoha listened to this, a thought struck him: this Uchiha Kō's philosophy on other countries was exactly the same as his own.

He didn't believe in false peace at all; only military conquest was the way to go.

And Uchiha Kō did the same, which stirred up a ripple in the heart of Darkness of Konoha.

"Uchiha Kō, what an Uchiha Kō! If I weren't from a different world, I would definitely toast him! Cough cough!" Darkness of Konoha began to cough.

However, a smile remained on his lips. If Hiruzen possessed such courage and strength, he wouldn't have needed to remain a black glove or a hidden Root.

Who would want to be a rat crossing the street when they can live under the sun?

Shimura Danzō sighed as he looked at the Darkness of Konoha, then told him about the deeds of Uchiha Kō. As he spoke, the Darkness of Konoha's eyes grew heavier, but he still tried his best to listen to the stories this world was telling him, knowing that he would never hear them again.

Just as Shimura Danzō was getting into his story, Shukaku's voice rang out. "Danzo, he's dead."

Shimura Danzō's voice abruptly stopped. He looked down at his own reflection—a figure that had bled to death, pale-faced, and emaciated—and remained silent for a moment.

Just as they were about to bury him, Shukaku's voice came again. "Danzo, his right eye is Mangekyō Sharingan, do you want it?"

Shimura Danzō understood what he meant, and he smiled, "Of course, this shouldn't be wasted, but it's not for me, it's for Konoha."

"I will give this Mangekyō Sharingan Owl. As for me, you are enough. The two of us together are invincible." Shimura Danzō laughed, then gouged out the right eye of the Darkness of Konoha and placed it in a petri dish.

Shukaku was initially disappointed when he heard that Shimura Danzō was going to hand over the Mangekyō Sharingan to Konoha, because he hoped that his Jinchūriki would become stronger.

But Shimura Danzō's second half of his sentence struck a chord with him. "You are all I need!"

"Hmph! That goes without saying. Even an ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan couldn't do anything to me with Shukaku's strength!" Just bragging.

Shimura Danzō laughed. He had buried his other self from another world. What was that experience like? He didn't know, but it was also a complete farewell to his dark thoughts.

After arranging the grave for the Darkness of Konoha, he got up and rushed towards Uchiha Kō's direction.

Uchiha Kō were truly complicated. He used the power of the Earthly Dao's energy to learn about what had happened on Shimura Danzō. In fact, even if Shimura Danzō had kept the Mangekyō Sharingan for himself, he wouldn't have said anything.

However, Shimura Danzō chose to entrust it to him, which undoubtedly demonstrates his loyalty and trust.

As Shimura Danzō Uchiha Kō, Uchiha Susanoo opened a door with a smile, and Shimura Danzō walked in, presenting with both hands the petri dish containing Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan.

Uchiha Kō looked at him. "Danzo, you really don't want him?"

"Lord Hokage, I want to, but I know that power is something that can never be enough no matter how much you pursue it. So I've changed my pursuit, which is to make Konoha stronger. That's why I'm entrusting this Sharingan to you, hoping that you can protect Konoha and defeat the Heavenly Dao," Shimura Danzō said earnestly.

Uchiha Kō remained silent, then handed the petri dish back. "I think this eye is perfect for you. With your loyalty to Konoha, you are fully worthy of this Sharingan!"

Shimura Danzō stunned. He hadn't expected Uchiha Kō to give it to him, because the Uchiha Clan's eyes were never passed on to outsiders.

"This..." Shimura Danzō didn't know what to say, but he stared at the petri dish with great envy.

"That's appropriate." Uchiha Kō reassured him, having guessed what Shimura Danzō was about to say.

Finally, after hearing Uchiha Kō's words, Shimura Danzō and took a deep breath. "To serve the Lord Hokage and to serve Konoha is my highest honor!"

Having said that, Shimura Danzō on one knee to show his loyalty.

Uchiha Kō chuckled. "Alright, we're all old friends, let's not bother with this."

Upon hearing Shimura Danzō chuckled and stood up, "Then I'll go check on Hiruzen's situation!"

Uchiha Kō nodded, opened the door again, and let Shimura Danzō leave. He watched Shimura Danzō's back and smiled. This Shimura Danzō really good.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, wielding the Enma's Adamantine Staff, moved with incredible agility, charging into battle with a cage and a fire!

Although the Third Hokage was old, he was still very experienced in battle and knew his own fighting style, so he was able to barely dodge Sarutobi Hiruzen's attacks each time.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be five years older than me this year, so why are you getting younger and younger?" The Third Hokage was very curious. If he could do the same, he might be able to continue burning for Konoha for another ten years or so.

(Konoha: Mudma is in good health!)

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "Naturally, it's because our Konoha has a great Lord Hokage!" With that, he formed hand Hand Seals, "Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

In an instant, he took a deep breath, his lungs expanded, and he opened his arms. The next second, scorching flames spewed from his mouth!

Upon sensing that Hiruzen Sarutobi Hiruzen a large amount of chakra, the Third Hokage frowned. His chakra reserves far exceeded his own, making a direct confrontation with the Water Dragon Bullet technique impossible!

Then, the Third Hokage Hand Seals: "Earth Release: Earth Style Wall!" Bang! A rock wall rose from the ground, blocking the attack of the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's lips curled up. As expected of himself, even at his age, he could still come up with the optimal solution!

However, you are destined to fail. He began to Hand Seals, and bang bang bang bang, four Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared, looking exactly like him. They simultaneously formed different hand seals. "Five Elements: Great Combo Technique!"

S-rank ninjutsu, Five Elements: Great Combo Bullet Technique! Five types of chakra converge and rush towards the Earth Style Wall.

If it were the original Third Hokage, he could have used this technique while conserving his chakra.

However, after Sarutobi Hiruzen for so long, his chakra was almost completely depleted, so he couldn't use this move at the moment.

Of course, this was the result of Sarutobi Hiruzen's calculations while fighting. The reason why the work of subcontracting and allocating resources was given to Sarutobi Hiruzen was because he was very good at math.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was even more impressive, using his mathematical skills in battle.

The Third Hokage also realized that this guy was doing it on purpose, taking advantage of his youth and peak physical condition to deceive and ambush this old man!
