Kakashi Had Waited a Long Time for This Moment

Everyone was surprised by Shikaku Nara's words, including Yun Yan, who looked at him with surprise before finally focusing his gaze on the sword in Kakashi's hand.

No wonder, no wonder Kakashi is late, and no wonder Kakashi took this sword at the last minute. It turns out it was his father Hatake Sakumo's sword.

As he continued to stroke the sword with his hand, Kakashi nodded with a gentle, nostalgic look in his eyes:

"That's right, this is indeed my father's sword, and it's the same sword he used when he committed suicide."

After saying this, Kakashi gripped the sword tightly and finally fixed his cold gaze on Danzo. At this moment, Kakashi's eyes were filled with killing intent.

"That's why I brought this knife here today."

"I will use this sword to personally send Danzo on his way, to pay tribute to my father, and to put his mind at peace."

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, the clan leaders present fell silent, for they all knew what Hatake Sakumo had gone through back then, and therefore understood Kakashi's actions today.

Yun Yan glanced at Kakashi, then at the sword in Kakashi's hand, and finally gave him a thumbs up.

"Kakashi, you really are a talent. You're a master at revenge. Danzo deserved what he got."

Alright, now that you've arrived and even brought your knife, there's nothing more to say. Let's prepare to Danzo.

And... hey, where's Morino Ibiki?

Mentioning this person, Morino Ibiki, the captain of the Konoha Judgment Department, stepped out from the crowd and nodded to Yun Yan, indicating that he was there.

"Yun Yan, I'm here."

Well, now even the upright and incorruptible Morino Ibiki has started addressing Yun Yan as "Sir," which shows that Yun Yan's position is completely unshakeable.

Seeing Morino Ibiki emerge, Yun Yan nodded in satisfaction, then instructed him:

"Today's execution is a just punishment for Danzo."

Since this is a just and proper execution, everything must be made clear, especially Danzo's crimes and charges, which must be explained in great detail.

Now that the people of Konoha are all here, before Danzo dies, please tell them one Danzo 'Konoha crimes. You don't need to go into too much detail, just give a brief summary."

Morino Ibiki nodded, then pulled out the thick stack of documents from his pocket. Holding these documents, he walked to the front of the execution platform, facing the people of Konoha.

When the people of Konoha saw this menacing figure reappear, their initial agitation inevitably subsided once again.

The people below watched Morino Ibiki silently, waiting for him to speak.

Holding the stack of documents, Morino Ibiki calmly looked around, then picked up the documents and resolutely began to state Danzo's crimes to these people, explaining them in detail.

At first, the large number of Konoha citizens below were able to remain quiet.

But the more they heard about the crimes and charges, the more they couldn't contain their anger and began to become restless.

After Morino Ibiki finished reading, the Konoha people below the execution platform rose and fell once more. They were filled with righteous indignation, shouting for Danzo to be killed again, as if Danzo had to die no matter what.

Morino Ibiki ignored all of that. After reading it, he turned around, nodded to Yun Yan, and then retreated back into the crowd with the thick stack of documents.

Seeing that the people present were very excited, and that all the preparations were complete, Yun Yan gave Kakashi a look, and finally addressed the entire audience:

"If that's the case, then..."

Danzo's crimes are heinous, and Danzo is hereby formally executed!

Although Yun Yan's voice was neither loud nor soft, thanks to the effect of his Chakra and Yun Yan exquisite Chakra control, it accurately resonated throughout the entire area.

All the Konoha citizens below heard Yun Yan's words.

Upon hearing this, the Konoha citizens were initially taken aback, but then erupted in excited shouts.

Yun Yan's words were essentially a formal announcement of the order to execute Danzo, so even if Danzo was unwilling or angry at this moment, it would have no effect.

Upon receiving the order, the two Anbu Ninja escorting Danzo kicked him squarely in the back of Danzo without hesitation, causing him to fall to his knees with a thud.

Even though he was kneeling on the ground, he was still held down by two Anbu Ninja to prevent Danzo from escaping.

Kakashi had been waiting for this moment for a long time. After receiving Yun Yan's approving look, he went to Danzo's kneeling side and stared at him with extremely cold eyes.

Even kneeling on the Danzo, even facing the enraged Konoha citizens below, Danzo's eyes were still bloodshot as he struggled, his resentment and bitterness almost tangible.

It wasn't until Danzo saw someone approaching that he realized this person was likely the one responsible for his execution, the Danzo.

With this thought in mind, Danzo couldn't help but glance at the person next to him.

With that one glance, he immediately recognized who it was!

Kakashi! It was Kakashi! The guy responsible for executing me was Kakashi!

Not only that, Danzo also clearly saw Kakashi's cold gaze and the knife in his hand through his wide eyes.

Of course, Shikaku Nara recognized the sword before, Danzo would certainly recognize it too.

He immediately realized that the sword in Kakashi's hand was the same sword that his father, Hatake Sakumo, used to carry!

At that moment, Kakashi walked up to him, still holding his father Hatake Sakumo's sword in his hand. Danzo didn't need to think much about what this meant!

Kakashi is definitely going to use his father's sword to kill himself and avenge his father!

How could this be?! I'm so unwilling to accept this! I'm extremely unwilling to accept this!

With this thought in mind, Danzo glared at Kakashi with immense anger and resentment, his sealed mouth roaring incessantly, uttering beast-like sounds that no one could understand.

Although no one else could understand, Kakashi, who was closest to Danzo at that moment, understood what Danzo was shouting. Danzo was yelling:

If I had known this day would come, I shouldn't have only killed Hatake Sakumo back then; I should have killed you too!

Understanding Danzo's meaning and comprehending the words Danzo roared out, Kakashi suddenly smiled disdainfully and finally slowly drew his sword.

This sword, the one that once belonged to Hatake Sakumo, is not actually a long sword, but a very handy short sword.

Although it's a short sword, it's definitely enough to kill Danzo.

With a crisp metallic scraping sound and a flash of cold light, Kakashi finally drew his short sword completely from its sheath!

Holding his father's sword, Kakashi was extremely excited.

His gaze was fixed on Danzo's neck, as if he was considering the angle from which to cut, and whether to give Danzo a quick death or let him die in agony.

Suddenly, Kakashi realized something.

He wasn't a professional executioner; he was already quite capable of beheading someone. He didn't have the skill to make the prisoner suffer a painful death after a single blow.

Since that's the case, then we can only Danzo easy. Just Danzo him; there's no need for all that other stuff.

So, aiming at a certain spot on Danzo's neck, Kakashi raised the short Kakashi in his hand, ready to strike. Everything was prepared.

At this moment, Kakashi did not make a move without permission. He turned to look at Yun Yan, waiting for Yun Yan to give him a look or gesture indicating that he was ready to take action.

Meanwhile, the people of Konoha below the execution platform, witnessing this scene and seeing that Danzo, this heinous criminal, was about to be executed, fell silent once more, quietly awaiting this historic moment.

The clan leaders standing beside the execution platform fell silent, their gazes fixed on Danzo, who was about to die, each with their own distinct feelings.

Then there are those two old geezers, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura. These two old guys realized that Danzo was really going to die, and they felt a sense of shared sorrow, so they closed their eyes and couldn't bear to see it.

Finally, there's Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was ambiguous, whether calm or sorrowful. He stared with his cloudy old eyes at Danzo's impending death, feeling a profound sense of despair.

In this situation, Yun Yan raised his hand, Kakashi finally swung it down at Kakashi, making a decapitation gesture.
