Danzo's Outburst X Scroll of Sealing

"I knew I couldn't escape this kid's senses..."

Through the Crystal Ball graveyard, Sarutobi Hiruzen met the Sun-Earring Boy's sharp eyes. His gaze, clear yet radiant, seemed to ignite two Great Sun, dazzling and blinding. For a fleeting moment, it dazzled Hiruzen's aged eyes, causing him to see a double image.

This phenomenon clearly only occurs when looking directly at the sun, which suggests that... that brat's [Yang Release] seems to have improved significantly since he demonstrated [Wood Release] to him that day... And considering the time, it hasn't been that long...

Sarutobi Hiruzen his eyes, his emotions churning, and with a wave of his hand, he dispelled the [Clairvoyance Jutsu]...

With a "pop," the Crystal Ball returned to its original state, and the gaze that had been hovering over the Uchiha Clan's territory vanished.

Roy slowly withdrew his gaze, and said sarcastically, "It seems our Hokage disagrees with what I'm saying..."

Fugaku Tsunade all fell silent; none of them responded to Roy's comment.

One was Sarutobi Hiruzen's direct subordinate and a frequent attendee of high-level meetings; the other was Sarutobi Hiruzen's beloved student and, besides Namikaze Minato, the most popular candidate for Hokage. For various reasons, even though Roy had reminded them that Fugaku and Tsunade had realized Sarutobi Hiruzen was spying, whether out of their own standpoint or out of consideration for the Hokage's reputation, they didn't continue to dwell on the topic.

"Ding ding ding..." The kitchen curtain fell, Uchiha Mikoto went back to the kitchen to cook.

Tsunade sat cross-legged on a soft cushion, looking at the tatami mat she had smashed to pieces in her excitement, and sincerely apologized to Fugaku, "I'm sorry, I'll buy you a new one as compensation."

Fugaku waved his hand, indicating it was alright, but instead gave Roy a deep look and said, "Jin, you'd better be really confident."

[Resurrection] is such a shocking and unconventional thing!

Not only was Uchiha Fugaku completely unaware of it, but even Tsunade, one of the Sannin, had never heard of it. Otherwise... she wouldn't have been so heartbroken by the deaths of Nawaki and Kato Dan, and wouldn't have even developed hemophobia, unable to escape the shadow of grief for so long...

Roy smiled but didn't say anything.

Not to mention that [Edo Tensei] can revive people,

In the Hokage world, there are many other [resurrection] ninjutsu, which are actually recorded.

For example, Chiyo used the [One's Own Life Reincarnation] technique to save Gaara.

In the battle at Valley of Clouds and Lightning, Danzo fought against Sasuke, depleting his Sharingan and triggering his pre-set [Izanagi].

Orochimaru, in his pursuit of immortality, borrowed from the Edo Tensei technique and created his own Curse Mark Reincarnation.

The Sharingan, combined with Yin-Yang Release, eventually evolves into the Rinnegan, enabling the use of Rinne Rebirth... and even more.

The Otsutsuki Clan's unique [Kama Reincarnation] technique allows them to forcibly possess another person's body by inserting a "wedge" into the body before the person's death... and many other examples exist...

The Sun-Earring Boy could sense Fugaku's concern and worry, which stemmed from his fear that he might make a boastful statement that turned out to be unfulfilled and cause him embarrassment. He chuckled lightly and said to Fugaku and Tsunade, "Father, Tsunade, perhaps we should let time pass a little longer."

[Edo Tensei] is found in the [Scroll of Sealing].

Roy stood up, stretched lazily, and said, "Since we've waited for over a decade, I don't think a little longer won't make a difference..." Fugaku remained silent.

The man subtly glanced at Tsunade sitting opposite him.

The woman visibly stirred for a moment; her chest heaved, and her breathing became slightly heavier, clearly indicating that she was... very unsettled! Yes, she'd waited for over a decade. People thought Tsunade was always dawdling or drowning her sorrows in alcohol, but...

They simply don't realize that while physical ailments can be healed, emotional wounds are extremely difficult to cure...

Shizune sat upright behind Tsunade, looking at Tsunade with heartache.

The woman, with her blonde hair tied into two ponytails that cascaded down her back, took several deep breaths, stared intently at Roy, and said, "Okay! I'm waiting."

"I've been waiting for you."

"Until one"

"I'll die!"

Roy chuckled. He'd been called in at the last minute, and since it wasn't his usual sleeping time, he smiled sleepily at Tsunade and said, "No need to wait so long... I'll be right back..."

The Sun-Earring Boy ruffled the weasel's hair and said, "Don't forget to leave me some breakfast."

One more glance,

With one step, one instantly merges into the light.

In an instant, following the flow of light, using [Light Release] to break the limitations of space, it floated out of the window along with the sunlight, and could only be vaguely seen... a hazy light and shadow heading towards the very center of the timber business district.

That's where the Hokage Rock stands.

It is also the location of the Hokage Building.

It was also the office of the Third Hokage Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, and several of his Hokage Assistant!

"This child... is in such a hurry, it's unbelievable,"

A gust of wind blew in, causing the hair of the people inside to sway.

Turning his head to look out the window, watching Roy leave, Fugaku, with a stern face, feigned anger and scolded Roy.

A wisp of light then fell upon him.

The man turned around and saw Tsunade with her arms crossed, coldly looking at him. She said, "If you're not satisfied with Jin, you can give this child to me." "I don't have any children of my own, so I might as well change his surname to the Senju Clan."

Fugaku:

He gave an awkward smile, pretending not to hear, and simply kept refilling Tsunade's teacup, saying, "Drink tea..." As for "adoption" or "changing surname"... he didn't mention it at all.

Tsunade couldn't help but let out a cold snort, a hint of envy in her eyes.

Youyou was a cool and pleasant morning. Itachi watched the two silently, then glanced out the window, silently calling out "Nii-san ~" before obediently standing up, grabbing a broom from the corner of the wall, and beginning to sweep up the debris from the low table.

Seeing this, Shizune said gently to the Sun-Earring Boy, "I'll do it."

Before Itachi could react, he snatched the broom from the Sun-Earring Boy's hand and began sweeping. Sunlight streamed through the window, casting dappled patterns on the floor, which vanished and reappeared as he Shizune swept. Just like Roy, he moved through the light, sometimes visible, sometimes hidden, and in no time, he had traversed nearly half of Konoha's commercial district.

Another kick,

Emerging from the light,

Slowly, he appeared in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen's large desk in the Hokage's office.

"You've come..."

"I am coming...,"

"You shouldn't have come..."

"But I'm already here..." Roy's feet slowly landed on the polished wooden floor. His eyes swept across the room... In the Hokage's office, besides Sarutobi Hiruzen, an elderly man sat on the sofa against the south wall, leaning on a cane. One arm and half his face were completely wrapped in gauze...

Just as the Sun-Earring Boy, enveloped in a halo of sunlight, revealed himself...

Suddenly, a sharp and piercing gaze fell upon him!

Roy spread his hands, glanced at the One-Eye old man, and turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen, saying, "It seems I really came at the wrong time." Sarutobi Hiruzen's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and he glared at Roy with annoyance before saying to the One-Eye old man, "Danzo, you can go now." "Space-Time Ninjutsu? How come I didn't know the Uchiha could walk out of a second Namikaze Minato?" Danzo's gaze was fixed on Roy, ignoring Sarutobi Hiruzen's nonsense, and he continued... The coldness and sarcasm in his words immediately made Sarutobi Hiruzen frown, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face.

His face hardened, and he was about to say something when suddenly... Roy slowly turned around, Danzo, and said with a smile, "You're blind, so it's only natural that you couldn't see it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen abruptly stopped talking, leaned back comfortably in his chair, opened the teacup in front of him, Youyou began to sip his tea. As expected, a cold snort was heard!

Danzo's face immediately darkened, and he slammed his cane heavily on the floor with a dull thud!

His left eye, the only one not covered by gauze, glared at Roy with the menacing look of a venomous snake, saying, "You sharp-tongued brat, do you know who you're talking to?"

"Oh~ it's Danzo!" Roy feigned realization, pretending to have just seen Danzo, and apologized, "Sorry, I thought it was some stray dog barking by the roadside, and I didn't notice Lord Danzo for a moment, baa~ baa~"

"Pfft!" Sarutobi Hiruzen nearly choked on his tea, almost spitting it out. He coughed a few times, then waved to Roy and Danzo, who were looking over, saying, "Cough cough, don't worry about me, I'm checking the battle report..."

Danzo:

A vein visibly bulged between his eyebrows, which he quickly concealed... This "Hokage," this "Shadow," who had defiled the Uchiha's corpse, stared dangerously at Roy, the words Orochimaru had spoken to him before his defection automatically flashing through his mind... Without a sound, he forcefully suppressed the anger surging in his heart, pretending not to hear the curses in Roy's words, and simply asked, "What are you doing here?"

Roy stared at Danzo in astonishment, as if he were looking at an idiot, and pointed to the door of the Hokage's office, saying, "The door is right there. You can come in, but I can't?"

"This is the Hokage's office, not Ninja Academy classroom! Students are not allowed to enter without permission!"

"I apologize for informing Danzo, but with the Hokage's special permission, I have graduated early and am no longer a student, but a... Ninja!" "Kid," Danzo suddenly raised his voice, "Ninja need to be informed, especially... a Shinobu who isn't even a genin..." "Indeed," Roy nodded in deep agreement, then turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "Hokage -sama, may I come?" Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended to look at the battle report spread out in front of him, when he suddenly heard Roy's voice, encrypted with "Nen Qi," slowly enter his mind. "Hokage -sama, you don't want the village's only [Wood Release] Ninja to die on the battlefield, do you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen violently, and he reluctantly raised his head, Danzo in a low voice, "It was I who sent him."

"Hiruzen... you!" Danzo looked on in astonishment...

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand at the opportune moment. "Alright, you can go now."

"The situation at the front requires a Jonin meeting for careful consideration and discussion. It's not something that can be decided hastily in a short time... We'll wait until Jiraiya's letter arrives."

Danzo Shimura rubbed his cane, one side of his face covered by gauze, obscuring his expression. The remaining half of his face showed him with narrowed, sinister eyes, his gaze chilling.

He kept shifting between Roy and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

His buttocks seemed glued to the sofa; he stubbornly remained there, unmoved.

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised an eyebrow and said in an unfriendly tone, "Aren't you leaving?"

Danzo snorted coldly and said, "As an advisor, I believe I have the right to listen in."

"You do," Sarutobi Hiruzen calmly, picking up the Hokage Hat from the corner of his desk and putting it on, his face expressionless. "But I think you've misunderstood something."

With his straw hat Sarutobi Hiruzen's demeanor suddenly changed. He looked at Danzo and said, "I'm not discussing this with you."

"That's an order!"

And I

"That's the Hokage!"

"Boom!" An invisible pressure descended directly upon Danzo!

For a fleeting moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen's stern face seemed to overlap with the Hokage's portrait sitting atop the Hokage Rock outside the window.

Danzo's lips twitched uncontrollably.

He stood up, leaning on his cane.

Forced by the Hokage's authority... he could no longer sit still, let out a cold snort, and slammed the door shut as he left!

"Snort!"

You'll regret this!

A chilling, eerie snort drifted in through the crack under the slammed door...

Sarutobi Hiruzen a soft sigh, casually removed his Hokage Hat, pulled out his old pipe from a drawer, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled a smoke ring with a "plop." He glared at Roy with annoyance and said, "Very well, no one has dared to threaten this old man like this for Sun-Earring Boy. You're the first!"

Roy watched Danzo leave, then gave him a long, thoughtful look at Danzo's arm, which was wrapped in layers of gauze. He turned and, with a familiar smile, found a chair and sat down.

She smiled and said, "Me too."

"No one has dared to spy on you so openly for Sun-Earring Boy. You old rascal, you're definitely the first!"

The old man, Sarutobi Hiruzen, twitched almost imperceptibly at the corner of his eye, nearly choking on the inhaled saliva. Taking advantage of a dry cough, he forced an explanation. "I wasn't spying, I was just concerned for my junior!"

"Do you think I'd even look at anyone else?"

"You ungrateful brat..."

"Is that so?" Roy looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen expressionlessly.

His gaze was clear and bright, seemingly radiant with the Great Sun, instantly causing Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes to sting slightly. He recalled the embarrassing situation when Roy had caught him in the act and forced him to dispel his [Clairvoyance Jutsu].

"Tick-tock... tick-tock..." The clock ticks away, second by second.

The Hokage's large office fell into a long silence for the first time since Danzo the door and left...

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes, meeting Roy's gaze across the desk... After a long while, seeing the Sun-Earring Boy persist in focusing on this point, he sighed helplessly and conceded, saying, "You win. I won't spy anymore..."

Roy's expression relaxed, and he slowly leaned back in his chair, facing Sarutobi Hiruzen, extending his right hand. "Compensation... for emotional distress..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes widened, "What compensation do you want?!"

"The Scroll of Sealing," Roy said, narrowing his eyes. "I want to see the [Scroll of Sealing]!"
