Bab 54: Chapter 54 : Everyone Wants to Kill Danzo!!
[The ninja world is like a small boat on the sea, and the helpful Danzo is like an indispensable pot in life, moving wherever it is needed.]
[Danzo worked at an extraordinary speed, checking for loopholes and filling gaps for the Konoha high-level officials, and he worked very hard.]
[Danzo: The Uchiha incident was indeed too stressful. Alas, I found that my health is not as good as before. I get hungry at mealtimes and want to drink water when I'm thirsty. My eyelids start to droop at midnight.]
[This year, Danzo was diagnosed with: scapegoating syndrome.]
[This rare disease has no cure, and the patient's body parts will gradually become stiff, leading to a vegetative state or even death.]
At this moment, Danzo on the light curtain had just turned into a large tree, causing the young people watching in Tobirama's office to gasp.
"Teacher, are the cells of the Shodaime-sama really that dangerous?"
Tobirama nodded and replied, "Yes, big brother's cells are very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will turn into a large tree like Danzo in the picture."
Having said that, Tobirama had some guesses in his heart.
There is no doubt that Danzo's right hand is implanted with Hashirama's cells.
The reason why he hadn't turned into a tree and was still alive was probably due to his Sharingan.
So, can the Sharingan suppress Hashirama's cells? Tobirama thought he could study it carefully when he had time.
Or, he could ask Danzo for information forty years from now.
After thinking about it, he shook his head.
In his opinion, Danzo was doomed to die forty years later, no matter how noble his reasons were. From his research on Hashirama's cells, his destruction of the Uchiha clan, and his murder of the village orphans, it was clear that this man was already extremely evil and beyond salvation.
If the Third Hokage couldn't do it because of their old relationship, Tobirama wouldn't mind doing it himself.
This guy disgusted him so much that he wanted to kill him to appease the public anger.
[Danzo couldn't bear to delay the operation of the village, so he leaned on a cane and went back and forth between home and work.]
[Until the news that Kagami's descendant Shisui was seriously ill reached Danzo's ears.]
Seeing Shisui being referred to as his descendant on the light screen, Kagami's expression softened a little.
[Shisui, who suffers from an eye disease, will lose his eyesight at a young age.]
[To give the young man a bright future and to repay the kindness of his comrades, Danzo took out his savings for treating his scapegoating syndrome and used the most gentle method to say, "You are my eyes."]
"Danzo, you really deserve to die."
Kagami, whose expression had just begun to settle, became furious again upon seeing Shisui on the light screen and realizing his eyes had been taken by Danzo.
The young Danzo shrank his neck, trying to distance himself from the situation and minimize his presence.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, Utatane Koharu, Homura, and others were equally enraged.
Not only was Shisui a descendant of a comrade-in-arms, but even if he had been an ordinary villager of Konoha, it was unacceptable for someone to cause harm to others in pursuit of power.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and his friends exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
At this moment, they made a collective decision.
Danzo, at Year 61 timeline, must die.
Konoha Village would not tolerate the existence of such a malevolent person.
"Look, old man, this is your good companion," Jiraiya remarked.
In response, the Third Hokage took a drag from his cigarette and murmured, "I was wondering why Shisui died suddenly. It turns out it was you, Danzo, who was behind it."
Originally, the Third Hokage had no intention of annihilating the Uchiha clan.
Although they were not the most intelligent, they were strong and could serve as the village's enforcers.
Everything was proceeding according to plan. With the Mangekyō Sharingan, Shisui would have gained significant influence within the clan if given more time.
At that point, the village would only need to eliminate the radical elements.
Unexpectedly, Shisui's sudden death had disrupted his plans.
Ultimately, the Uchiha were forced into a dead end.
It was a pity about Shisui's eyes, which had the power to alter people's will. Such a powerful pair of eyes—Danzo would never destroy them.
He would undoubtedly transplant the eyes onto himself.
The Third Hokage subconsciously glanced at Danzo's right eye, which was covered by a bandage.
Only one eye had been transplanted?
Thinking of this, he quickly moved to Jiraiya and whispered, "Jiraiya, I suspect that Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan is here and has been transplanted to Danzo. Don't speak, just listen."
The fifth Hokage, Jiraiya, nodded in silence.
The Third Hokage continued, "Shisui's eyes possess a very powerful ability known as Kotoamatsukami. This ability can directly invade the opponent's mind and alter their will without them even realizing it."
Modify will?
Upon hearing this, Fifth Hokage Jiraiya frowned.
If that's the case, things could get complicated.
"If my behavior changes drastically without warning in the near future, it's likely that Danzo has taken control of me. You must be on guard."
"I understand. He might choose to control either me or Orochimaru?"
"Regardless of who it is, we must remain vigilant."
To be honest, Danzo had indeed considered using Kotoamatsukami.
However, the Third Hokage's response was too swift. He had already informed Jiraiya about the situation before Danzo could make use of it.
At this point, regardless of whose will Danzo modified among the three of them, the other two would detect it.
Once detected, the effectiveness of the ability would naturally diminish.
To ensure things go smoothly, Danzo decided to keep hiding and wait for the perfect moment to use Kotoamatsukami.
On the screen, Shisui, with his eyes closed and bleeding, was being 'interviewed'.
[Shisui: That day, my eye condition suddenly worsened, and I began bleeding for no apparent reason. Fortunately, Danzo was nearby and called the most renowned doctor to treat me on the spot, permanently resolving the issue. Without him, I wouldn't have known what to do. I am deeply grateful to him. Thank you, Danzo, from the bottom of my heart.]
[Danzo responded humbly to Shisui's gratitude.]
[Danzo: In fact, there are many high-ranking individuals like me in Konoha. They do not shy away from trouble and are always willing to lend a hand.]
[That day, it seemed there was an issue with the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen's office chair.]
[Considering the potential safety risk, Danzo had his men delay Hiruzen, who was out on duty.]
Although it was said he was being delayed, the footage actually showed Hiruzen being assassinated.
"You are too soft-hearted, old man. That guy sent someone to kill you, and you haven't even dealt with him yet."
The Third Hokage smiled bitterly upon hearing this and thought to himself: I am indeed too soft-hearted. If I had taken decisive action and removed Danzo from his position at that time, there probably wouldn't have been so many issues later.
