He slowly opened his mouth and gave the answer to the question.
"Yes, those orphans can be used by me, and it is their honor to contribute to Konoha."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire conference room erupted in an uproar.
"You deserve to die! You wouldn't be able to die a thousand times over!"
"We joined Konoha so that our families and children wouldn't have to live in constant fear like Sengoku. What are you doing?!"
"Execute him!"
"Yes, execute him!!" ×n
Upon hearing this, the noise in the conference room immediately subsided, and the calls for Danzo's execution converged.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw Danzo being brought in, he slumped into his chair.
He knew that he was doomed this time as well.
The orderly sounds of executions echoing in the conference room now made him think about his own fate.
Amid cheers, a head rolled to the ground.
Mito Uzumaki, on the contrary, was frighteningly calm at this moment.
Unaffected by the noise, she slammed her hand on the table and shouted:
"Quiet, there are still questions you haven't asked!"
When everyone heard that there were still questions to ask, they immediately fell silent.
Seeing that things had returned to normal, Mito Uzumaki continued questioning Danzo.
"How did you manage to keep it almost completely undetected? And how did you eventually find out that the plan had been exposed?"
Danzo probably knew he was doomed, so this time he offered no resistance whatsoever.
"I only target orphans who have no family, or clans that are not qualified to attend the Jonin meeting."
“Sarutobi gave me the Hokage’s warrant, so these people dare not disobey the Hokage’s orders.”
"In the end, it was Sarutobi who informed me that the plan had failed."
In contrast to the previous commotion, Danzo's words this time made the meeting room as quiet as if no one was there.
Although it was expected that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, would be involved.
But unexpectedly, he could become an accomplice.
The Jonin present were momentarily caught in a dilemma.
Chapter 53 The End of Sarutobi
Jonin and clan leaders might have concerns, but Mito Uzumaki didn't share that idea.
Upon hearing Danzo's words, her sharp gaze turned towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to say something, but didn't know how.
Danzo has already told everything, and the irrefutable facts are right in front of us. Anything he says now will be wrong.
Seeing the disappointment in Mito's eyes, he couldn't help but think of what she had said before.
"Little monkey, don't let me down."
"Monkey, you're the Hokage!"
He was jolted, finally realizing that Mito Uzumaki had been giving him a chance all along.
He himself was blinded by power, and step by step he reached a point of no return.
Having figured all this out, Hiruzen Sarutobi gave a bitter smile.
He thought he would give everything for the village, but he never expected that one day he would end up as a sinner.
He took off the Hokage's hat and placed it aside.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, he walked step by step to Danzo's side and to the prisoner's position.
Looking at his disheveled best friend, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt all his resentment and bitterness vanish.
As Hokage, he was undoubtedly unqualified.
In the future, Konoha will become weaker and weaker under his leadership.
In every respect, Hiruzen Sarutobi's faults outweigh his merits.
But Hiruzen Sarutobi undoubtedly loved the village, so now everything has settled down.
He couldn't bring himself to rebel or even kill the villagers.
Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced around, and seeing the angry and disappointed looks in the Jonin's eyes, he couldn't help but lower his gaze.
Is this how it all ends?
Thinking this, he suddenly thought of Uchiha Seiryu and his first meeting with this brat.
I also realized that I had been influenced by him, either directly or indirectly, and that's how I ended up where I am today.
A strong sense of resentment welled up in his heart.
At that moment, he seemed to understand why Tobirama-sensei always referred to the Uchiha as an evil clan.
'For the sake of the village, this brat absolutely cannot be allowed to live!'
Driven by his passion, Hiruzen Sarutobi decided that he would take Uchiha Seiryu with him, even at the cost of his own life.
He secretly formed several hand seals, intending to unleash a ninjutsu.
But he underestimated Mito Uzumaki.
When she saw Hiruzen Sarutobi walk to the dock, she assumed he was about to surrender and lowered her guard.
But when she sensed the sudden increase in malice emanating from Hiruzen Sarutobi, she realized what was happening.
As soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi finished his hand seals, her Adamantine Lock bound him.
But in the end, Hiruzen Sarutobi still managed to unleash this ninjutsu.
"The corpses are sealed away!"
Mito Uzumaki was horrified. As a member of the Uzumaki clan, he knew that this technique was a vicious sealing technique that would lead to mutual destruction.
The essence of this Grim Reaper is sealing techniques; it can even capture souls, let alone chakra.
Just as Mito Uzumaki, recognizing the technique, was about to quickly retract the Vajra Sealing Technique, she saw Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly stand still, with the invisible Shinigami behind him slowly dissipating.
The Uchiha clan members stared at Uchiha Seiryu in shock.
When Mito Uzumaki interrogated Danzo, Uchiha Seiryu thought he was out of the picture.
So he just stood by and watched the show, never expecting that the next second he would be the one getting the gossip.
Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to make his move, he sensed a strong killing intent coming toward him.
He subtly activated his Kaleidoscope Sharingan, releasing a small-scale flame with destructive properties that burned through the space around Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi unleashed the Reaper Death Seal, intending to take him with him.
The spatial rift tore Hiruzen Sarutobi's body apart, killing him in an instant.
Normally, Hiruzen Sarutobi would be able to detect it earlier.
Currently, it will still take some time for Uchiha Seiryu's Mangekyou Sharingan to burn through space.
Therefore, this technique can injure Hiruzen Sarutobi, but it cannot kill him directly.
But now, his mind, overwhelmed by a mix of emotions, is no longer able to think and fight calmly.
Having lost their initial vigilance, they were swept away by the Uchiha Seiryu in one fell swoop.
For Uchiha Seiryu, Hiruzen Sarutobi's life or death was of no importance.
But if he attacks you and tries to take you down with him, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
It all sounds slow to explain, but it all actually happens in just a few seconds.
The Jonin only saw Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly use a technique called the Reaper Death Seal, and then Mito Uzumaki used golden chains to restrain him.
Then Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped.
The Grim Reaper summoned by the Reaper Death Seal is invisible to everyone except the caster and the person captured.
Moreover, Uchiha Seiryu's methods were quite secretive, using tiny spatial rifts to carry out the kill.
So, apart from the Uchiha clan sensing a power far exceeding that of the three-tomoe eye, even Mito didn't notice that Hiruzen Sarutobi was already dead.
The strength of this pupil power is undoubtedly at a level that only a kaleidoscope can reach.
That's why the Uchiha present looked at the source of this eye power: Uchiha Starflow.
With Hiruzen Sarutobi's death, the chakra within him gradually disappeared.
Mito Uzumaki, who possessed Kagura's insight, still managed to sense Hiruzen Sarutobi's death.
She felt a jolt in her heart, unsure of what emotions were stirring within her.
She and Hiruzen Sarutobi had a fairly good relationship, otherwise she wouldn't have supported him becoming Hokage.
Although I knew that Sarutobi was doomed to die this time, I still felt a little sad when I actually faced it.
However, she also understood that this was not the time to be sentimental.
With Hiruzen Sarutobi's death a fact, the next step is to deal with the mess he left behind.
Thinking of this, Mito Uzumaki suppressed her inner emotions.
Then, he glanced out of the corner of his eye at Uchiha Seiryu, who was pretending not to know anything.
Even without the Sharingan, she could guess that Uchiha Seiryu had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
But he had to keep this news a secret, otherwise assassins would be coming in droves.
The Kage of the other four countries would not want another Uchiha Madara to appear.
Once the news of Uchiha Seiryu's six-year-old Mangekyou Sharingan is exposed, even if he has the ability to protect himself...
But even if there is only a sliver of hope, the other nations will nip it in the bud.
