It was this man. He had absolutely masterminded the destruction of the Senju Clan!
"Tsunade? You actually managed to find this place. A rogue ninja from Konoha, appearing openly before me-is that really all right?" Danzo gave Tsunade a dispassionate glance, his brow creasing slightly as he spoke calmly.
Tsunade, that madwoman, had actually found Root. This was quite a surprise. Had someone given her information about him?
The image of a black-haired figure with a sinister smile surfaced in Danzo's mind. Yes, it had to be Orochimaru. After all, among Tsunade's acquaintances, only Orochimaru knew where he was.
As expected of someone like Orochimaru!
"Shut up! You old bastard, you really have the nerve to say that? Tell me, did you have anything to do with what happened to the Senju?" Tsunade's beautiful face twisted slightly at his words, and she snapped at Danzo.
A traitor to Konoha-those words had touched a raw nerve!
She, the sole remaining descendant of the Senju of the Forest, was wanted by Konoha. It was a stain she could never erase!
But Tsunade quickly took a deep breath to steady herself, then stared at Danzo and questioned him coldly.
Although she was already almost certain, she still wanted to hear Danzo admit it himself, because she also needed information on the others involved back then!
"I knew you had come for this. I always suspected this day would come. That indecisive fool Hiruzen should have had you eliminated along with them back then." Danzo narrowed his eye slightly, a sharp gleam flashing within it as his calm voice slowly echoed through the space.
Back then, he had suggested to Hiruzen Sarutobi that they kill Tsunade too, a Senju with considerable talent.
That would have left them with no future worries at all.
