Chapter 178 Danzo: I want to be Hokage, or blow Konoha
At the beginning.
When the Uchiha clan escaped from Konoha, I don’t know how many people cheered, thinking that the cancer was finally driven away, and life would get better from now on.
Who would have thought that in less than a month, the ninja coalition forces would invade the Land of Fire and reach Konoha's house.
The people in Konoha were stunned.
after this.
Out of dissatisfaction with the village's senior management and pessimism about the war situation, there have been many defections in Konoha recently.
Seeing that morale is getting lower and lower.
The high-level Konoha decided to hold a mobilization meeting, calling on all Konoha ninjas to live and die with the village, and fight until the last soldier.
"Where the leaves dance, the fire is always alive..."
On the rooftop, the third generation was talking about his will of fire again, and gave a speech full of emotion.
Unfortunately, there are very few applicants, and the effect is not very good.
After all, no one has forgotten.
The last time, after the third generation made such a speech, Konoha's 3,000 troops went to the Land of Rain, but they were quickly wiped out.
Sarutobi Hiruzen.
This Hokage, who was once respected and trusted by Konoha, now has frequent tricks, and has already exhausted his prestige in the village.
at this time.
Behind the crowd, there was a sudden commotion.
"Um?"
On the rooftop, Sandaime, Jiraiya and others followed, their pupils shrank, because they saw an unexpected figure.
Danzo.
Konoha's ex-Hokage assistant, after missing for more than half a month, finally reappeared on this occasion today.
Under all eyes.
Leaning on crutches, he walked through the crowd calmly and walked to the Hokage Building.
"This old thing, dare to show up?"
"If he hadn't taken Shisui's eyes away, the Uchiha clan wouldn't have broken with the village. If Uchiha hadn't left, the Ninja villages wouldn't have declared war on Konoha..."
"Don't forget, Danzo also tried to manipulate Nine-Tails Jinchuriki with Shisui's Sharingan, which caused Nine-Tails to go berserk and almost destroyed Konoha."
"The village has become what it is today, and Danzo is definitely the culprit!"
The Konoha ninjas were filled with righteous indignation, and they glared at Danzo one after another. If eyes could kill, he would have been hacked to pieces.
Whizzing.
Several Anbu ninjas appeared, surrounded Danzo without saying a word, and drew their ninja swords.
Just wait for the order of the third generation, and they will take down Danzo, or even kill him on the spot.
"Danzo, do you still have the face to show up?"
Sandaimu looked down at Danzo, shouted sharply, and as soon as he raised his hand, he wanted to order Anbu to do it.
No one thought of it.
Danzo raised his head and looked at Sandaime and the others, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said:
"I want to be Hokage! Only I can save Konoha now!"
As soon as this remark was made, the surrounding was quiet, and everyone had a surprised expression on their faces.
Danzo is... crazy?
This old bastard, it’s fine if he doesn’t plead guilty, and he brazenly claims to be Hokage, saying that only he can save Konoha.
It's just a dream.
However, just when everyone in Konoha was planning to ruthlessly ridicule Danzo.
"snort."
Danzo snorted coldly, and the crutch in his hand hit the ground heavily.
Next second.
Boom! boom! boom!
On the west side of the Hokage Building, a series of explosions suddenly occurred in a building complex, and flames and thick smoke rose into the sky.
It's the homeland of the Sarutobi clan.
In an instant.
A large number of mansions of the Sarutobi clan were destroyed by the explosion, and the ninjas in the clan were either killed on the spot, or swallowed by flames, and some were buried under the ruins.
There were heavy casualties for a while.
"Danzo, you!"
Seeing this scene, the third generation was so frightened and furious that he jumped off the roof with a whoosh and rushed towards Danzo with killing intent.
Danzo didn't panic at all, just sneered:
"This is a warning, Hirazan. If you take one step closer, I will blow up Quankoha."
Blow up the Konoha.
After these words came out of Danzo's mouth, the third generation was shocked and stopped abruptly.
"Danzo, don't scare me here!"
Jiraiya, Xiaochun and Yan also jumped off the rooftop and yelled at Danzo.
"Oh? It seems that you don't believe it."
Danzo replied lightly, picked up the crutch again, and knocked on the ground with a "boom".
Boom!
Not far from the Konoha News Building, a violent explosion occurred immediately, and it collapsed under the horrified eyes of everyone.
"You, how did you do it?"
The third generation was so shocked that his voice trembled.
Danzo looked around and was satisfied with the panic expression on everyone's face, and then said slowly:
"There is a guy named Xuan Ong, a ninja from Yangyan Village in the mountain country, his son died at the hands of Konoha ninja many years ago.
In order to avenge his son, he sneaked into Konoha as a carpenter, and stole the drawings of important facilities in the village from the house of the foreman of Konoha Village.
Xuanweng hid it from everyone's sight. Detonating symbols were buried inside the buildings and underground of the whole village. Once detonated, the entire Konoha could be turned into ruins.
Now that Xuan Weng is dead, all the institutions he left behind have been taken over by the old man.
Sun Zhan, what else do you not understand? "
When Danzo finished speaking, Sandaime's face was ashen.
The Konoha ninjas around were even more frightened and fell into a commotion.
Roll your eyes, open!
A group of Hyuga ninjas headed by Hyuga Hyuzu turned their eyes towards the surrounding buildings, and sure enough, inside the building, they found the detonator and the detonating mechanism.
"Master Naruto."
Jirai also winked at the third generation.
The third generation immediately understood what the apprentice meant, and asked him to give the order immediately to capture Danzo. Then let the Hyuga clan dismantle all the detonating symbols and organs in the village.
But Danzo could see through their thoughts at a glance.
"Hizan, are you going to take the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Konoha as a joke?"
Danzo stared at the third generation with burning eyes, questioned the latter, and said confidently, "Do you think these detonating symbols are all there is?
Even if you dismantle all the detonating charms, I still have a way to destroy the entire Konoha.
If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. "
Sandaimu and others heard the words, looked at each other in blank dismay, and no longer dared to act rashly.
After ten seconds of silence.
"Danzo, why...why did you do this?" Sandaimu looked at his lifelong friend and asked sadly.
"Hi Zhan, I think I have made it very clear."
Danzo shook his head, feeling quite disappointed that the third generation couldn't understand himself.
"From the day I became a Konoha ninja, everything I did was for the village. Over the years, there has never been a person who has dedicated himself to Konoha like this old man.
Now, the village is facing life and death. In order to prevent Konoha from being destroyed by you people, this old man must become Hokage.
because.
Only I, Danzo Shimura, is the savior of Konoha, only I can save this village! "
Danzo became more and more excited as he talked, and in the end, he almost roared out.
The day.
He suffered from the broken kaleidoscope illusion - Tianxiegui, and was implanted with an almost real hallucination.
In that fantasy world, Danzo saw himself overthrowing the third generation, and finally realized his dream for many years, becoming the fifth Hokage.
He also saw that he led Konoha to fight everywhere, and finally unified the five major countries and became the master of the ninja world.
He will become the greatest Hokage in history, bring eternal peace to the ninja world, and leave his name in history forever!
Danzo firmly believes that he is the man of destiny.
"Danzo, you are crazy."
Thirdai looked at his best friend who was in a daze before him, and shook his head firmly, "No matter how you threaten, I will never let you become Fifth Hokage."
Danzo laughed suddenly when he heard the words, the more he laughed, the louder he laughed, and finally roared:
"Since this is the case, there is no need for Konoha to exist anymore, let's destroy it!"
As soon as the words fell, he raised his crutches with both hands, intending to poke them hard to the ground.
not good.
Seeing this scene, everyone was scared out of their wits, their faces ashen.
Just at this critical moment.
"Stop!"
The daimyo hurried out of the Hokage building with a group of ministers, and stopped Danzo.
He walked between the two parties panting, and yelled angrily:
"Stop fighting among yourself! It's such a time, you guys are still fighting among yourself, are you planning to **** me off?"
When the third generation heard the words, his face changed, and he quickly explained:
"Damyo-sama, it was Danzo who made unreasonable demands and wanted to become Hokage. Not only me, Konoha's hundreds of thousands of people, it is impossible to agree to his conditions."
Daimyo widened his eyes and asked in disbelief:
"So, you would rather see Danzo detonate the detonating charm in the village, turning the whole Konoha into ruins, and everyone will be buried with him, right?
Is the so-called Hokage position more important, or the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Konoha Village are more important? "
In the eyes of daimyo.
Danzo came to negotiate, but the third generation continued to stimulate the other party with a tough attitude, forcing Danzo to die with Konoha.
Compared to Danzo, Sandaime is more like crazy, and even regards the position of Hokage as more important than anything else.
"The daimyo can still see clearly."
Danzo gently put down his crutches, and said to the fire country daimyo, "I never thought of destroying Konoha, what I did just now was just to test Hiruzaru Sarutobi.
Facts have proved that he did not hesitate to disregard the safety of the entire Konoha, and even the lives of all Konoha villagers, in order not to be robbed of his Hokage position.
A person like this, what qualifications does he have to be Konoha's Hokage? "
The words were spoken so loudly that everyone around them could hear them clearly.
For a moment, countless eyes fell on the third generation, questioning, angry, disappointed... People's tolerance for this Hokage-sama has reached the limit.
The third generation's face couldn't help but become very ugly. He stared at Danzo, and said in a deep voice:
"Danzo, you are wrong.
I have never been attached to the position of Hokage, because of Konoha, I have to stick to this position.
As long as the Daimyo and Konoha villagers have a suitable candidate in mind, I am willing to abdicate on the spot and hand over Konoha's future to that person.
But I'm pretty sure that person won't be you. "
did not expect.
As soon as the third generation finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by the daimyo.
"Danzo, do you really have a way to lead Konoha to win this ninja war?" Daimyo stared at Danzo and asked this question.
To this, Danzo replied without hesitation:
"Of course! As long as I become Hokage, all the problems Konoha faces will be solved."
He is full of infinite confidence in himself.
Daimyo's eyes flickered, he pondered for a while, and finally said:
"Okay, from now on, I appoint you as Konoha's Fifth Hokage! I hope you don't let me, Konoha, and the people of the entire Fire Kingdom be disappointed!"
In the eyes of daimyo.
Anyway, the Konoha executives like the Third Generation couldn't come up with a way to turn the tide. In this case, it is better to see what skills Danzo has.
Moreover.
Danzo has mastered the mechanism left by Xuanweng, and can detonate the entire Konoha at any time, and the lives of everyone present are in his hands.
In this situation.
What choice does the daimyo have?
Not only the daimyo, but also everyone in Konoha present realized this.
If Danzo is not allowed to be Hokage, everyone will be killed immediately, and the only ones who will survive at that time, I am afraid that only the strongest people—
That is, the third generation and Jiraiya and other high-level.
As for the rest of Konoha, in order to survive, I am afraid they can only agree to Danzo's conditions.
For that chance of survival.
"My lord, absolutely not!"
The third generation could not accept it, and refuted the appointment of the daimyo on the spot.
However, what responded to him was Daimyo's cold eyes.
"All the jounin in Konoha, come out!" Following Daimyo's order, the jounin in the village came out of the crowd one after another.
Daimyo looked around and said:
"I have decided to appoint Danzo as Konoha's Fifth Hokage, and now a Jonin vote of confidence will be held."
Konoha's Hokage appointment must go through three processes.
High-level nominations, daimyo appointments, and the final Jonin vote of confidence.
The previous candidate, Jiraiya, successfully passed the first two processes, but fell in the third step.
And Danzo.
He was indeed nominated by the former Hokage assistant Uchiha, which conforms to the procedure. Now that he has been personally appointed by the daimyo, only the final Jonin vote of confidence remains.
The daimyo's voice fell.
Swish Swish Swish.
Jonin from the four major families of Yamanaka, Akimichi, Nara, and Hyuga all raised their hands in agreement.
Their resentment towards the third generation surpassed their hatred for Danzo.
If they had to choose one of the two as Hokage, they would rather choose Danzo, a real villain, than the third generation of hypocrites.
Driven by the four major families, other Konoha jominin also raised their hands one after another.
Junin from families such as Inuzuka and Yume, as well as some commoner ninjas such as Maitkai, all chose to abstain.
but.
The number of votes supporting Danzo has exceeded half.
So far, Danzo has successfully completed the entire process of Hokage's appointment. From this moment on, he has officially become the Fifth Hokage of Konoha Village!
Dengdengdeng.
The third generation seemed to have all the strength taken away from his body, he took several steps back, and almost lost his center of gravity and fell.
Fortunately, Zilai also helped him in time.
From now on, he can no longer yell at Danzo that "I am Hokage".
Danzo stared, walked up to the third generation, and announced in a victorious gesture:
"Ri Zhan, I told you a long time ago, you will regret it."
