Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

His eyes swept over the three people and said, "Go and bring Kirihara Star back."

"Yes!"

The three answered in unison.

Their figures disappeared from the eyes of Danzo and Orochimaru.

At this moment, Kirihara Star has arrived at the Hokage's office.

"Are you a Root ninja?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen held a pipe in his hand and swept Kirihara Star up and down with a sharp gaze.

Judging from the attire of the ninja in front of him, he is undoubtedly a Root ninja.

"Yes!"

Kirihara Star nodded heavily and took off the mask on his face.

Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen was in the Hokage's office, but also Utane Koharu, Mito Kado En, and a group of ninja clan leaders represented by Nara Shikaku were there.

Amemiya Rei was standing next to Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, his eyes fixed on Kirihara Hoshi.

Today is the day when Sarutobi Hiruzen discusses with everyone the signing of a peace agreement with the Hidden Mist Village.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and stared solemnly at the Root ninja in front of him: "You said you had something important to report. What is it? Tell me!"

Kirihara Xing took a deep breath, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

"Hokage-sama, I report Orochimaru for conducting secret human experiments!"

Kirihara Star barely gave anyone a chance to interrupt, her mouth chattering like a machine gun:

"Not only has Orochimaru been conducting human experiments, he has also been secretly collaborating with Root Elder Danzo to obtain the body of Lord Amamiya Rei!"

"In the battle at Kintai River Bridge, the reason why Lord Amamiya Rei was seriously injured was because he was ambushed by the Root ninjas sent by Elder Danzo!"

“I’m one of them!”

"But I failed to kill Lord Amamiya Rei, and instead killed the other Root ninjas!"

"Perhaps Lord Amamiya Rei doesn't remember!"

"But I won't forget!"

"You saved me!"

"On the way back to the Root, I destroyed the piece of flesh that I had obtained from Amamiya Rei-sama and replaced it with a piece of flesh from a random ninja corpse."

"Now, Orochimaru has discovered through research that it is not the flesh of Lord Amamiya Rei!"

"I know Danzo will definitely not let me go!"

“So, I came here.”

Kirihara Star's words fell.

The entire Hokage's office fell into complete silence.

You can even hear a pin drop.

In the end, it was the person involved, Amamiya Zero, who spoke first.

Amamiya Zero looked at Kirihara Star's face and said slowly: "You are wrong. I remember your face. I remember the face of everyone I saved. It's just that you were wearing a mask that night, so I couldn't see your face."

A sharp pain came through Kirihara Xing's body, his face twisted in pain, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Lord Amamiya Rei..."

There was deep remorse in his crying.

Amamiya Zero stopped controlling Kirihara Star's body.

A moron who can't even act!

Chapter 183 Showdown!!!

"Orochimaru……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought he would be very angry, but in fact, he was unusually calm.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was surprised that he could be so calm.

Is it because I have accumulated too much disappointment?

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled white smoke and stared at the Root ninja in front of him: "Do you know where Orochimaru's experimental base is?"

Of course Kirihara Star knew.

He stayed in the Root for such a long time, and after being reused by Danzo, he even went to Orochimaru's laboratory to observe the condition of the experimental subjects and came back to report to Danzo.

"There is Orochimaru's secret experimental base underground outside the Death Forest."

Kirihara Star said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the pipe in his hand.

He slowly took off his Hokage robe and placed it on the chair.

"Lord Hokage..."

Watching Sarutobi Hiruzen's actions, Nara Shikaku shouted.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Nara Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku suggested, "Hokage-sama, let Zero go with you!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Amamiya Rei, who nodded.

"Let's go."

Behind Sarutobi Hiruzen followed Amamiya Rei and two Anbu, with Kirihara Hoshi leading the way.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen left, the Hokage's office became even quieter. Everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

They already knew that Danzo was reckless, but they didn't expect him to be so bold!

He actually collaborated with Orochimaru to conduct human experiments!

He also attacked Amemiya Rei!

……

Outside the Forest of Death.

In front of Amamiya Zero stood a tall ancient tree, its gnarled bark gray-green in color.

He withdrew his gaze from the tree and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen beside him.

"right here."

Kirihara Star said affirmatively.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his fingers and stroked the bark.

He was clearly touching tree bark, which should have been rough, but it felt like cold scales under his hand.

Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's gaze, the bark in front of him transformed into a gate as smooth as snake skin.

Kirihara Xing walked forward and twisted the branch next to the tree trunk. Suddenly, the sound of gears meshing came from the door hidden inside the trunk.

Under Sarutobi Hiruzen's fixed gaze, the door opened to both sides, revealing a staircase leading downwards.

Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and stepped into the laboratory first.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the huge basement in front of him and found it difficult to breathe for a moment.

The entire laboratory was filled with a cold inorganic light.

Clean transparent hoses hung from the ceiling on both sides of the laboratory, and the fluorescent green liquid flowing in the tubes flowed into sixty cylindrical culture dishes.

Each petri dish contained children aged eight to twelve suspended in liquid.

The children's numbers are written on the outside of the petri dish.

The air was filled with a special smell of medicine, which went straight into the nose.

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked towards the experimental table and looked at the record book on the table. His hands trembled slightly, but he still firmly opened the record book.

"Hashirama's cells..."

"Wood escape..."

"Fusion..."

"..."

Seeing these words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's knuckles holding the Vajra Ruyi Stick turned white.

He closed the experimental record book, unwilling to look at it anymore.

Sarutobi Hiruzen still overestimated himself. When he actually saw all this, he couldn't calm down at all.

He didn't understand how the child who he had high hopes for had become like this.

A hand landed on Sarutobi Hiruzen's shoulder.

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around and saw the comfort in Amamiya Rei's eyes.

When he turned around, Sarutobi Hiruzen not only saw the expression in Amamiya Zero's eyes, but also caught a glimpse of a transparent box with white light behind him out of the corner of his eye.

There was a piece of meat inside, and the mark on the lower right corner was - "Amemiya Zero Meat Specimen".

These words pierced deeply into Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils like a knife.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes glowed red.

Footsteps came slowly from the stairs, and a familiar face appeared in Sarutobi Hiruzen's sight.

Orochimaru stood at the entrance of the laboratory, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen from a distance.

"teacher."

Orochimaru shouted as if nothing had happened.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were full of disappointment as he looked deeply at this disciple who had once made him feel both distressed and proud.

"Orochimaru, did you do all this?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew the answer, but he just wanted to hear Orochimaru admit it himself.

The corners of Orochimaru's mouth curved up, and he looked around and asked, "Hasn't the teacher seen everything?"

Such an answer is tantamount to admission.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, a trace of pain in his eyes. He stared at the disciple in front of him: "Why did you do this?"

Compared with Sarutobi Hiruzen's pain and entanglement, Orochimaru seemed particularly relaxed, even in a good mood.

"curious."

Orochimaru gave an answer that Sarutobi Hiruzen could not accept.

"curious?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes gradually turned cold. He pointed at the child in the petri dish behind him and said, "Just out of curiosity, you have harmed so many people?"

This is just what he saw. How many children died in this cold laboratory that he didn't see?

"Harmful?"

Orochimaru shook his head: "I don't think I harmed them, I was helping them."

"Human life is limited, and one day we will sink into the quagmire of death."

"They are all poor orphans. The longer they live, the more miserable they become."

"I ended their suffering early and gave them a chance to change their fate."

Orochimaru glanced at Amamiya Rei who was standing next to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "With Wood Release in Konoha, can't they change their fate?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands began to tremble. He raised the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, and a tear flashed in his eyes:
