Having witnessed all the recent changes within the Uchiha clan, Danzō soon revealed a satisfied smile.
To him, the Uchiha were like a pack of wild and arrogant wolves.
Only when you demonstrated sufficient strength would they transform into your most loyal hounds.
This analogy might seem a bit inappropriate, but ...
A Certain Underground Chamber in Amegakure
Black Zetsu stood before an unconscious White Zetsu, forming hand seals.
Chakra surged out, enveloping White Zetsu.
Moments later, White Zetsu’s body morphed, taking on the form of Madara Uchiha.
“Is this Edo Tensei?”
Madara stood up and swiftly formed ha...
"I'm tired, little maid."
Hanekawa waved at her and said, "Sit down and give me a massage."
"If you're tired, go to sleep!"
Mei Terumi rolled her eyes and said, "I've been working all day, and no one gave me a massage!"
"Then I'll give you one."
Hanekawa patted his lap and said, "Put your feet up here."...
Mizukage Office, Hidden Mist Village.
Terumi Mei put down the documents in her hand and looked out the window.
Since becoming the Mizukage, she had never taken a vacation, spending all her time working.
Compared to the thriving Hidden Leaf Village, the Hidden Mist Village was a mess, with many issues requiring her personal a...
"Alright! Then we'll shamelessly head up and mooch a free lunch. Hahaha!"
Flender let out a raspy, scheming laugh.
"Of course, no problem."
Qin Ming smiled and agreed, leading the way for Flender and the others.
As a genius, privileges followed him everywhere.
Qin Ming was no exception.
—
At the foot of the mountain.
Flender and the others had been waiting for a long time, growing bored and helpless.
But what choice did they have? They were here to seek refuge.
So they could only wait.
At some point, a large umbrella had been set up among their group.
Under the umbrella—
Ning Rongro...
"That's enough!"
Ning Rongrong muttered disdainfully.
She spoke up, helping Flender and the others resolve their urgent predicament.
"My home is near Heaven Dou City. I’ve been to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy before when I went out to play."
"Rongrong?"
After having killed someone, Oscar seemed to have...
As it turned out, Danzō's strategy of thoroughly beating the Uchiha clan was quite effective.
That very night, Uchiha Fugaku, the captain of the Konoha Military Police Force and the head of the Uchiha clan, issued a public announcement.
The gist of it was that due to the increasing number of outsiders in Konoha, the mana...
"This is..."
"A genjutsu?"
The experienced Uchiha Setsuna immediately realized he was trapped in a genjutsu the moment he saw the blood-red moon hanging in the sky.
In response, he quickly attempted to disrupt the chakra flow within his body to break free from the illusion.
However, no matter how hard he tri...
Arrogance!
Utter arrogance!
This was the impression all the Uchiha clansmen now had of Danzo.
After all, he had stood in front of the Uchiha clan's Naka Shrine and declared that he would take on the entire clan single-handedly.
Even though Danzo had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, which represented the...
"Shimura Danzo..."
As the elderly man appeared before him, Uchiha Setsuna's eyes flickered with a trace of apprehension.
A person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
Danzo's title as the "Darkness of the Shinobi World" and his formidable reputation were not without reason.
In the entire shinobi world to...
Konoha, Uchiha Clan Territory.
In an old house near the Naka Shrine, a grim-faced elderly man suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with fury.
"What did you say? Fugaku actually agreed to Danzo's proposal to allow outsiders into the Military Police Force?"
The man roaring these words was none other than Uchiha Se...
If Jiraiya's appointment as the head of the Public Relations Department was widely anticipated, then Danzo's subsequent appointment seemed even more inevitable.
"Due to Koharu Utatane's dismissal, the position of Medical Department Head has become vacant. I hope Tsunade will take on this role."
This appointment was passed u...
A new day arrived.
Hanekawa opened his eyes.
Upon seeing the sleeping Tsunade, he confirmed that everything that happened last night wasn't a dream.
Hanekawa couldn't help but let out a slow breath.
He felt as if a long-cherished wish had been fulfilled.
Hanekawa smiled as he gazed at Tsunade.
The blush ...
"Elder Danzo, listen to me, 'Make-Out Paradise' is a work of art. If it could be officially published, it would definitely be a huge hit!!"
All the way, Jiraiya had been trying to persuade Danzo, hoping he would approve the release of 'Make-Out Paradise'.
Unfortunately, Danzo would never allow such contraband to appear thro...
"Shinobi World United News, May 3rd, Year 53 of Konoha: The railway connecting the Capital, Konoha, and Amegakure has been fully completed! The successful construction of this project marks a significant milestone in the history of the Land of Fire, symbolizing the development and progress of our nation's industrial technology. It will p...
"Choo-choo-choo…"
As the piercing whistle echoed, the citizens gathered around the black railway finally realized what General Danzo had meant by the "train"—a colossal iron beast!
The rolling wheels clattered along the tracks, emitting a metallic grinding sound.
It was as if a massive black iron dragon had des...
As the joint military exercises came to an abrupt conclusion, the ninja world briefly experienced peace and tranquility amidst a wave of accusations against Danzo.
Although there were still many conflicts brewing beneath the surface, such as the local wars within the Land of Hot Water and the covert struggles between the daimyos ...
Holding the massive contract he had just signed, Shukan couldn't help but smile with satisfaction the moment he left the Daimyo's residence.
The short boy standing beside him also sighed in admiration, "I didn't expect this mission to go so smoothly."
Unlike Shukan, the boy had a small, arrow-like spike at the end of his t...
Witnessing the man named Shukan take down the enemy with just a snap of his fingers, the Daimyo of the Land of Earth was filled with astonishment.
After all, this was a seasoned ninja he had hired at great cost from Iwagakure, a ninja whose strength reached the level of a special jōnin.
While such strength might not ...
The next day, the Shinobi World United News issued a notice regarding the joint military exercises conducted by the allied forces of various nations near the borders of Konoha.
Konoha's stance was clear: this was a blatant and forceful interference in the internal affairs of the Land of Fire, an act of extreme dominance and tyrann...
"Shikaku, you've really been through a lot these days."
In the Daimyo's palace of the Land of Fire, Danzo, the General, looked somewhat apologetically at Shikaku, who appeared visibly exhausted.
It had been a month since the shocking cabinet incident that had shaken the entire ninja world.
Under Shikaku's command, th...
[The Daimyo of the Land of Fire Issues an Edict of Self-Reproach, Appoints General Danzo as Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Responsible for All Affairs in the Capital.]
In just two days, this earth-shattering news spread throughout the entire ninja world.
Many were filled with anxiety, believing that recklessly dismantling ...
Danzo's words were spoken lightly, but Aburame Ryoma could clearly sense the killing intent behind them.
Having been Danzo's trusted aide for so many years, Ryoma understood his temperament all too well. It was evident that this time, the "Darkness of the Shinobi" would not allow these opposing forces to continue causing trouble....
"General Danzo, all of this was done by Kazuma and the others on their own! It has nothing to do with me!"
"I swear, from now on, I will support whatever you want to do!"
"Just let me go, and everything can be discussed!"
After being released from his "silence," the Daimyo hurriedly pleaded in a panic.
...
A blinding white light flashed as a terrifying slash extended rapidly from Danzo's front, cutting through everything in its path and splitting the entire capital in two!
Everything along the way was severed—the ground, all the houses blocking the line, and even Jiraiya's defenses...
Yet, despite this astonishing slash, n...
"You..."
Shinnō struggled to get up, but as soon as he uttered a single word, he was struck by a flash of crimson and fell into a daze.
After controlling him with the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Hanekawa extended his hands.
A pale green chakra surged out, enveloping Shinnō completely.
Soon, Hanekawa underst...
"What... what are you doing?"
Yuuhi Kurenai reacted, quickly stepping back two paces, covering her bottom as she asked.
"You're really cute."
Hanekawa looked at her flushed cheeks and said.
Compared to Tsunade and Samui, she seemed much more innocent.
"Complimenting me won't help!"
Yuuhi Kurenai ...
"Back in the Hidden Leaf Village again," Atsui sighed.
Samui heard his complaint but didn't say much.
She gazed ahead, her view blocked by the Forest of Death, preventing her from seeing the village.
Her thoughts drifted to Hanekawa.
What was he doing now?
They say that a day apart feels like three ...
To be honest, Jiraiya didn’t have much of a choice.
If he wanted to save his teacher and preserve the system left behind by the First Hokage, this was the only way.
As someone who had fought alongside Danzō and witnessed his power firsthand, Jiraiya didn’t believe he stood any chance in a direct confrontation.
