Chapter 149 Determination
Uchiha Nan reached out and patted Shimura Danzo's injured shoulder.
嘶
It made his body tremble and he gasped.
"What's wrong, Danzo-sama? Where's your invincibility? Show me your invincibility again!"
"Could it be that your ninjutsu isn't working because you didn't have enough food?"
"Don't be so complacent, little brat!" Danzo Shimura stared at Uchiha Minami angrily.
Now that Izanagi has lost his power, he can never be a match for Uchiha Minami based on his own strength.
Things have reached a point of no return. How could he, the Dark Lord of Konoha and the leader of the Root, continue to endure the ridicule of this Uchiha brat?
Shimura Danzo gritted his teeth, made up his mind, stretched out his intact hand, and lifted the clothes at his chest.
The special Bagua pattern on his chest appeared, and he was about to launch this last resort to die together with the enemy.
"For the sake of the village, you and I will die together."
But as soon as the sealing technique in the Four Symbols on his chest made a slight movement, he was confronted by a pair of madly spinning scarlet kaleidoscopes.
At this moment, the Mangekyo illusion that Uchiha Nan had been brewing for a long time since entering the Root was finally ready.
Through this glance, he entered into Shimura Danzo's mind and exerted control over him from the bottom of his heart.
Within his spiritual space, a huge windmill appeared, nailing his spiritual body to the ground.
After a moment's struggle, Shimura Danzo's mind succumbed to the enormous mental power.
"Nan Daren"
"Um"
Looking at Shimura Danzo's respectful expression, Uchiha Nan nodded with satisfaction.
The illusion he just performed was an illusion for the Mangekyō Sharingan that he had studied for a long time.
It can sink a person's mind into a void of illusion, leaving only the ability to act according to the caster's orders.
This was inspired by the original animation in which Uchiha Obito controlled the Fourth Mizukage.
Uchiha Nan named it
Kaleidoscope Prison
Danzo Shimura, who has been trained in this technique, will only follow his orders.
In normal times, I only deal with things I encounter based on my instincts.
But it doesn’t matter, because Danzo Shimura usually faces only these Root subordinates anyway.
They were infected with the tongue disaster and the seal of awakening, so even if they noticed that something was wrong with Shimura Danzo, they would not have any special thoughts at all.
"Danzo, you sent the Root ninjas to incite the public to spread the word that Sarutobi Hiruzen is unworthy of his position."
"So many ninjas died in the village this time, all because of his lack of ability. All the suffering the village has endured is related to him."
"As the Third Hokage, he must be held responsible for what happened this time!"
After Uchiha Minami controlled Shimura Danzo, he immediately gave him a task.
"It's an adult"
Danzo Shimura turned around and went out, issuing orders to his subordinates whose illusion had been lifted by Uchiha Minami.
And the huge war machine of the Root also slowly began to move, spreading rumors through their own means.
After Uchiha Nan saw that his goal was achieved, he left here. After coming to the ground and making sure that he was not discovered by others, he took back his four clones and disbanded the Four Purple Flame Formation.
Just like that a week passed.
For some unknown reason, there were several rumors about Sarutobi Hiruzen in the village.
A place in the village where civilians usually use for leisure and entertainment.
A group of older aunts gathered together, looking around, and no one knew what they were discussing.
Some people would turn their heads and look behind them from time to time, as if to make sure that they had not been discovered by others.
"Hey, have you heard? The reason why this war happened is that the Sandaime insulted the Kage of the Wind Village and the Earth Village first, so they sent ninjas to attack us."
"I heard that it was the Third Master who first laughed at Tsuchiya for being short and wiry."
"Yes, yes. I also heard that so many people died in this war because of the Third Hokage's poor command, which killed many ninjas."
"Damn Sarutobi Hiruzen, that's how my poor child died!"
"Woohoo, my man too!"
"Sarutobi Hiruzen is such a disaster, he doesn't deserve to be the Third Hokage!"
For a time, rumors spread in the village and public resentment was boiling.
Led by caring people, the families who lost their loved ones vented their sadness and anger on this incident.
They even formed a parade, carrying the coffins of their dead relatives and shouting on the streets of Konoha, demanding justice for them.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen is responsible for their deaths!"
"Tens of thousands of innocent souls cannot rest in peace!"
"A sinner is not worthy of being a Hokage!"
What happened in the village naturally could not be hidden from Sarutobi Hiruzen who was in the Hokage Building.
He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the office with a pipe in his mouth and a melancholy look on his face.
Staring at the villagers who gathered spontaneously outside, he shook his head and sighed.
I couldn't understand why. Could it be that he really caused this war?
Is the sacrifice of the people in the village also closely related to him?
He took out the pipe from his mouth and exhaled a puff of white smoke.
The increasingly aged and wrinkled face looked uncertain against the backdrop of the smoke.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the Hokage Rock in the distance, then looked at the face of the First Hokage and then his own face, and suddenly he understood.
Yes, as a Hokage, the most basic responsibility is to ensure the safety of the village.
Protect the interests of the villagers from being violated and make the entire Konoha prosperous and stable.
But what has he done over the years? Not only has the village not developed positively under his leadership, but it has even regressed to a certain extent.
But then Sarutobi Hiruzen overturned this weak thought and strengthened his belief.
Everything he did was for Konoha. Even if there was a brief period of turmoil, it would be exchanged for long-term stability.
After his mind changed, he continued to look at the villagers sitting quietly in front of the Hokage building and smiled silently.
"You want me to abdicate? Then I'll do as you wish."
He has been the Hokage for long enough, it's time to find fresh blood to take over.
However, young people in power are unstable and inevitably make mistakes.
As the former Hokage, he does not intend to hand over power to them too early for their own good.
He is still in charge of Konoha's affairs behind the scenes, and the young man only needs to take on the glory of Hokage.
