Sarutobi Clan Compound.
The paper door was half open, and the light from the corridor squeezed in through the crack of the door, casting a slender strip of light on Tatami.
Sarutobi Tsukikage knelt on the ground and burst into tears, holding Konohamaru in his arms.
Konohamaru's face was facing up, his eyes were closed, and his lips were slightly open, as if he was sleeping. But his face was wrong, it was as gray as a dead person.
The gray-white color spreads from the cheeks to the base of the ears, and from the base of the ears to the neck, like a thin layer of frost.
There was a wound on the neck.
This wound was so deep and severe that it completely severed his carotid artery! By the time Medical Ninja arrived, the blood had already dried up.
Yueying's tears fell one drop after another.
The tears fell on Konohamaru's face, on the gray-white skin, and on the hideous wound. The tears gathered into a small pool at the edge of the wound, dripped down his neck, and soaked Konohamaru's collar.
Next to her, there was a corpse lying.
A Jonin, wearing the Konoha standard vest, was lying face down on the ground, with a trace of black blood hanging from the corner of his mouth. The black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and formed a small puddle on the floor, exuding the smell of bitter almonds.
He was originally one of the guarding ninjas of Konohamaru, but he gave the person he was guarding a fatal blow!
And after he succeeded, he immediately took the poison!
Cruel and cruel!
Whether it's to Konohamaru or himself!
This kind of murderer either has a last resort or has extremely high beliefs!
Hiruzen Sarutobi stood next to the paper door, with his back leaning against the door frame and his hands hanging by his side. His eyes fell on Konohamaru's face, on the gray-white skin, and on the huge hideous wound.
The wrinkles on the face are several times deeper than usual, extending from the corners of the eyes to the cheekbones, and from the cheekbones to the corners of the mouth. Each one looks like a knife carving.
The bags under the eyes hang even lower, so low that they almost fall to the cheekbones.
His fingers were clenched tightly at his sides, his knuckles cracking loudly.
"Notify Inoichi Yamanaka."
"Let him come and search the memory."
"It doesn't matter who is behind the scenes."
"I will definitely make him pay with blood!"
Yueying raised her head suddenly.
Those eyes red from crying were staring at Hiruzen Sarutobi, with Rage, hatred, resentment, and countless emotions intertwined in the pupils, like two pots of oil boiling at the same time.
"Who else could it be!"
"It must be that old dog Danzo!"
"He killed my husband and then my son!"
She stood up suddenly, Konohamaru's body swayed in her arms, and her head slipped from her shoulders and hung by her side.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi!"
"It's all your fault, you old fool!"
"It's you who have been allowing Danzo to do evil to his own people!"
"Now, you are just reaping the consequences!"
"The strongest bullshit Hokage! You are the most failed shadow of a village!"
After the words fell, she turned around, hugged Konohamaru's body and walked toward the door.
The footsteps were Rage and heavy, making a dull thumping sound. Her back was getting farther and farther in the corridor, becoming more and more blurry, and finally disappeared around the corner.
The paper door swung twice behind her and then closed slowly.
Hiruzen Sarutobi stood next to the paper door, leaning his back against the door frame.
His body was shaking.
Starting from the fingers, it spread to the wrist, from the wrist to the arm, from the arm to the shoulder. The shaking became more and more severe and uncontrollable.
He has always attached great importance to his reputation, and even tried his best to promote in the village that he is the strongest Hokage!
The accusation of being the most defeated Shadow of a Village hurt him even more than losing Konohamaru!
Inoichi Yamanaka stood up from the body.
"His entire family was arrested and poisoned."
After saying this with a solemn expression, Inoichi Yamanaka closed his mouth, moved his eyes away from Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, and landed on his feet.
He didn't say the rest, and there was no need to say it again.
Who would know the identity of this guard?
Who would know where this guard's family lives?
Who could quietly capture his family in Konoha, force him to kill Konohamaru, and then commit suicide by taking poison?
There are very few people who can do this.
There is only one person who can and still does this.
Shimura Danzō.
Tsunade glanced at the corpse on the ground, at the pool of blood left by Konohamaru, and at Hiruzen Sarutobi's ashen face.
"The first time he attacks one of our own, he should be killed!"
"Sarutobi Old man, you made a really big mistake!"
Jiraiya gave her a look, blaming her for adding fuel to the fire and changing the subject.
"Uchiha Yongye is Mastermind!"
"They all said they were going to publicly cut Danzo in half, and they came up with such a vicious conspiracy again!"
"Forcing you three families to kill each other!"
Tsunade glared back unceremoniously, turned down the corner of his mouth, and let out a sneer.
"Uchiha Yongye, pressed Danzo's hand to kill someone?"
"Then Uchiha boy is really a bastard."
"But the worst thing is Danzo! Don't pretend you can't see this!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head suddenly.
The wrinkles on his face became deeper from clenching his teeth, the corners of his mouth were turned down, and the goatee on his chin was trembling slightly.
"Stop talking!"
His voice exploded, reverberating in the room like thunder.
"Get out!"
"Get out of here, everyone!"
Tsunade glanced at him, without saying a word, and immediately turned and left. Inoichi Yamanaka followed her, walking very fast, as if he was afraid that if he walked slowly, he would be captured by the evil ghost.
Jiraiya stood there, looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi's face that was distorted by Rage and grief, and moved his lips twice.
"Teacher..."
"Get out!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi grabbed the pipe on the table and threw it at Jiraiya.
The pipe hit Jiraiya on the shoulder, bounced, turned a few times in the air, and landed on the ground. The ash spilled from the pipe and scattered into a ball of gray-white powder on Tatami.
Jiraiya's mouth twitched.
He bent down, picked up the pipe, and put it on the table. Then he turned around and walked towards the door. His steps were heavy and slow, as if every step was like stepping in a mire.
The paper door closed behind him.
In the corridor, Tsunade stood by the window, folding his hands on his chest, staring at the night outside the window, with an annoyed look on his face.
"Such a big mess."
"I really regret coming back!"
Inoichi Yamanaka walked quickly past her and wanted to leave immediately, but she grabbed him.
"Tell me, how can we deal with that Uchiha brat?"
Inoichi Yamanaka's Adam's apple rolled, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
He didn't want to say it.
Regarding Uchiha Yongye, he doesn't want to get involved at all!
He was forced by Uchiha Yongye last time, and he still has lingering fears!
But Tsunade stared at him.
The light in those eyes has the arrogance of the Senju Clan, as well as the toughness and persistence of Fifth Hokage, which cannot be refused!
Inoichi Yamanaka gritted his teeth, glanced left and right, then lowered his voice and spoke, appearing sneaky.
"Or, use poison."
"The kind that can kill him instantly!"
"Or, help him establish a bond with Konoha as soon as possible!"
"Ayame Those women can't do it."
"He just sees it as a plaything!"
"He now has no weaknesses and no ties!"
"I am also seriously dissatisfied with Konoha because of the death of my family member!"
"We may start a killing spree in the village at any time!"
The corridor became quiet.
The night outside the window changed from deep black to deep blue, with a faint line of gray on the horizon. Several birdsong came from the distance, short and urgent, as if urging the dawn.
Tsunade let go of his hand, looked away from Inoichi Yamanaka's face, and fell into the night outside the window.
The gray line on the horizon is getting wider and wider, swallowing up the dark blue sky from the edge bit by bit.
Just like, Uchiha Yongye is within Konoha, the terrifying shadow that keeps spreading!
She took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
"I understand, let's go."
Inoichi Yamanaka As if he had received an amnesty, he bent down, bowed deeply, then turned around and left quickly.
He is just a second-tier ninja clan leader, what kind of fate is he playing?
Jiraiya stood there, looking at Tsunade's profile.
Tsunade stared out the window, motionless.
The morning breeze blew by, blowing the strands of hair around her ears to the side of her face, but she did not move them away.
Jiraiya's lips moved.
"Tsunade, which path are you going to choose? Poison, or..."
