Chapter 38- Danzo – 3
I was holding the bloody Sharingan eye in my palm while looking at Danzo with calm indifference.
"Hehe… If this eye was truly a gift," I continued calmly, "then what about the things hidden under the bandages on your arm? Why don't you unwrap them and show everyone? If there's nothing suspicious, I'll believe you and apologize publicly."
Danzo's face twisted with uncontrollable rage. For the first time there was a real panic in his remaining eye. The entire village's elite were watching him now.
"You little fucker… what is the meaning of this?!" Danzo shouted while turning toward me with a fierce glare.
I paid no mind to his ferocious expression and sneered.
"Didn't I say it already? Since you're so eager to accuse others of being spies, you should prove your own loyalty to the village first."
"Me? Proving loyalty??!! Aren't you daydreaming?" Danzo hissed coldly. "I don't have to prove anything. Everything I do is for the village!"
But Minato was having none of it. His eyes were ice-cold and filled with killing intent. This matter concerned his wife and newborn child.
Hiruzen tried to intervene, raising his hand. "Minato, how about we discuss this later—"
Before he could finish, Tsunade stepped forward. She had her voice booming with authority. Before, she only had a Danzo but now as it involved her grandfather, it had become personal.
"Teacher, don't say that I don't respect you. But if this really involves Wood Release… then I will become your enemy."
Kushina was also angry. Her long red hair was swaying as she glared at Danzo with burning fury.
"Old man, you are no longer the Hokage. Do not interfere in this matter. This bastard Danzo tried to kill me and my child. If he really did this, I will kill him myself, regardless of the consequences!"
Fugaku Uchiha also stepped up, his Sharingan spinning. He knew that if the blame for controlling the Nine-Tails fell on the Uchiha, his entire clan would be in danger. So he was more than happy to throw Danzo under the bus.
Shikaku Nara quietly gave secret signals to the Akimichi and Yamanaka clan heads not to get involved. He also subtly signaled the Third Hokage to stay silent for now.
The pressure on Danzo was mounting rapidly. The Root members behind him were shifting uneasily, while the clan heads were watched with cold eyes.
I was standing calmly while waiting to see how Danzo would try to worm his way out of this. After all, stealing the Saringan and wood release were serious crimes. He does the bottom line of all the clans.
Danzo shouted once again. "He is the main culprit!! Attack him!"
I really thought that Danzo was some sort of intelligent and scheming man with political maneuver. But he was acting like a third-rate villain of a Chinese face-slapping web novel.
'Well, it may be because this is not the original world. This is just a made-up world made by Angela for me to have sex. I really should expect less intelligence and more sexy time'
Due to Danzo shouting, the situation exploded without any warning.
Torune Aburame and Fū Yamanaka suddenly moved to protect their leader, but they were instantly subdued. Inoichi Yamanaka used his clan's mind techniques to restrain Fū, while several Anbu operatives pinned Torune down before they could act. Other small fry root members were instantly pinned by Uchiha.
Tsunade didn't hesitate.
She charged forward like a raging bull, her fist glowing with monstrous strength. Danzo tried to defend himself, but he was no match for her in direct combat. In just a few exchanges, Tsunade overwhelmed him and tore the bandages off his right arm and face.
What everyone saw made the entire area fall into stunned silence.
Danzo's right arm was a grotesque, pale-white limb — heavily modified with Hashirama Senju's DNA. The pale arm was embedded with ten Sharingan eyes, all staring lifelessly. The sight was horrifying.
The Uchiha clan members were looking furious. Tsunade's face was also twisted with pure disgust and rage.
"Danzo!" Tsunade roared. "Explain yourself right now, or I will kill you where you stand!"
Danzo clutched his exposed arm while breathing heavily. His voice turned hysterical as he shouted,
"It's all for the village! Everything I've done is for the sake of Konoha! You don't understand!"
He had completely lost his composure and lunged toward me with killing intent.
"You!! It's all because of you!!"
This was the perfect opportunity for me to kill him.
'Well, he will be resurrected using Izanagi again, but let's see…'
I was prepared to end him right there, but Minato was faster.
Swish!
With a flash of yellow light, Minato appeared in front of Danzo using the Flying Thunder God Technique. He then slashed his kunai down in a clean arc, severing Danzo's modified right arm completely.
Swish…
Thud!!
"Aaaaaahhh!!!"
Danzo screamed in agony as his arm flew through the air while his blood was spraying everywhere. The Root members tried to move, but they were already pinned down by the combined forces of the Uchiha and Anbu.
Tsunade followed up instantly. She was angry that Danzo targeted me. She threw a full-powered punch straight into Danzo's face.
BANG!
The impact sent Danzo flying backward. He crashed through the ground, rolling several times before slamming hard into a tree. At least half his bones were broken from the force of that single strike.
Just as Tsunade stepped forward to deliver the finishing blow, Hiruzen Sarutobi moved between them. The Third Hokage looked ten years older in that moment, his face filled with exhaustion and sorrow.
"Old man!" Tsunade shouted angrily. "Are you still going to protect him after all this?!"
Hiruzen closed his eyes for a moment, then spoke in a heavy voice.
"No… I'm not protecting him. I'm simply asking you… please don't kill him here. Give him a fair trial. This is my last request as your teacher."
The entire area fell into heavy silence once again.
Danzo was laying on the ground. He was broken and bleeding while still glaring at everyone with pure hatred.
Tsunade stared at Hiruzen for a long moment, her fists still clenched tightly. Finally, she lowered her hand.
"…Fine," she said coldly. "But I will make sure he dies after the trial."
Hiruzen didn't reply. He simply nodded once, looking ten years older as he turned and walked away with hunched shoulders, his back heavy with exhaustion and regret.
Minato's voice rang out with clear authority.
"Anbu! Arrest all the Root members immediately. All clan heads, we are holding an emergency meeting right now."
The Anbu obeyed without hesitation. The other clan heads also moved to assist, helping secure the Root operatives.
I stepped forward as Danzo was being dragged away. He was barely conscious and bleeding heavily.
"Tsunade," I said calmly, "it seems Danzo is dying. Please give him some emergency treatment inside the shop before he's taken away. Otherwise, he may die even before the trial."
Tsunade glanced at me, but she immediately understood the subtle hint in my words. She let out a short "Hmph" and ordered the Anbu.
"Bring him inside for a moment."
The Anbu carried the broken Danzo into the massage shop. Once inside, Tsunade casually applied a few low-level medical jutsu to stabilize him on the surface.
But while she did that, I secretly sent a small, undetectable shiver of divine energy from the SM Dungeon directly into his brain. It was subtle, invisible, and impossible to detect. I was certain that within a few hours, Danzo would suffer a fatal collapse. He may die or become idiot and no medical ninjutsu in the world would be able to save him.
After the "treatment," the Anbu dragged the barely conscious Danzo back out.
Minato looked at me with a mix of gratitude.
"Alex… thank you for everything tonight. We will talk more later."
Kushina was still weak, but she gave me a soft, tired smile as she was helped away by Tsunade. She needed to rest. She also needed to breastfeed Naruro, as he seemed to be hungry.
'Damn! I also want to drink the milk directly from the source.'
The immediate crisis was over, but the political storm in Konoha had only just begun. But I didn't care about anything.
For me, one major thorn had been dealt with, and there was nothing that could hinder me from having fun with milfs.
'Now, I could finally focus on more… enjoyable matters.'
