Shihōin Naraku's bluntness left the two old foxes, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, somewhat unaccustomed.
Naraku glanced at them, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. At a time like this, who still cared what a dead man thought?
Even if he told the truth, these two would not seek revenge for the already deceased Shimura Danzō, so Naraku did not care at all.
As for the others, their attention was entirely focused on whether Madara Uchiha had used Izanagi during the Battle of the Valley of the End. Who had time to think about Danzo?
"Surely not. Even if Madara Uchiha used Izanagi, the First Hokage should have noticed, right?"
Shikaku Nara said hesitantly, "The First Hokage never mentioned it. That means Madara Uchiha really did die."
At this point, Tsunade, who had initially been so certain, became less sure instead. "Although my grandfather defeated Madara Uchiha, honestly, the gap between their strength wasn't that large."
"It would be perfectly normal for my grandfather not to have noticed something Madara Uchiha did in secret."
Although many people in the Shinobi World and Konoha praised the strength of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, they made it sound as though he could crush Madara Uchiha.
Tsunade herself knew very well that Hashirama Senju had truly fought with everything he had to defeat Madara Uchiha in the battle at the Valley of the End.
The evidence was that shortly after Madara Uchiha died in battle, her grandfather had also passed away.
Of course, Hashirama Senju's death had certainly involved an emotional blow. After all, he had personally killed his best buddy, and that must have felt terrible.
But on the other hand, it was also connected to how much Hashirama Senju had expended during the Battle of the Valley of the End.
