Ch. 76. Refresh the total amount of Chakra. [1]

Mizuki revealed the Konoha Crush plan and successfully diverted Sandaime's attention.

  A trial against Mizuki came to nothing.

  On the rooftop of the Hokage Tower, Sandaime looked up at the Hokage Rock with his hands behind his back.

  His eyes lingered on the rock statues of Shodaime and Nidaime for a long time.

  The guilt in his eyes lingered for a long time:

- "[Summoning Technique: Reanimation]... Orochimaru, I didn't expect you to have fallen so low that you would even destroy the rest of the dead."

- "Absolutely, unforgivable!"

  Sandaime's eyes were full of determination:

- "I was too soft-hearted after all when I let you leave."

- "This time, I will kill you with my own hands."

- "Even if it takes my life, I won't hesitate!"

At this moment, familiar footsteps sounded behind him, and Sandaime knew that Danzo was coming without even turning his head.

  Hiruzen asked calmly:

- "What are you doing here?"

  Danzo:

- "Hiruzen, I can't completely believe Mizuki's words. After all, he..."

  Hiruzen interrupted Danzo and asked suddenly:

- "Do you know about Orochimaru's plan?"

  Danzo was startled, thinking that Hiruzen was indeed suspicious.

  But he didn't panic, his face was calm and his breath was stable:

- "I've said it all, don't believe all Mizuki's words. He is obviously trying to sow discord. If you believe him, Konoha will be in chaos before foreign enemies come to attack."

- "Besides, Hiruzen, you don't know my loyalty to Konoha, do you?"

  Hiruzen raised his head and sighed:

- "Yes, you have always been loyal to Konoha. Everything you do is for Konoha."

While saying this, his eyes were full of coldness and thought:

- "Yes, you are indeed loyal to Konoha, but you are not so loyal to me, Hokage."

  Danzo's eyes flashed with subtle contempt:

- "Hiruzen, you are still so indecisive and lack courage after all."

- "It is under your leadership that Konoha has become desolate. If I were the Hokage, I would definitely not be in this embarrassing situation now."

Danzo:

- "The information Mizuki brought back may be false, it may be true, it may even be half-truth and half-false."

  Hiruzen frowned and said:

- "Whatever you want to say, just say it."

  Danzo:

- "If you don't kill the snake, you will be harmed by it!"

- "If we target Mizuki like this, he must hold a grudge and will retaliate whenever he gets the chance."

- "If the Konoha Crush plan is fake, it doesn't matter. If it is true, Mizuki will definitely take advantage of the chaos to destroy Konoha."

- "Such a time bomb must be dealt with in advance without giving him any chance."

  Hiruzen nodded.

  Of course he knows this.

  Hiruzen:

- "He brought back the news of Konoha's collapse plan and made great achievements. I declared him innocent in public. If I take action against him again, the jounin in the village will raise objections, and the two advisors will also object."

  Danzo frowned and said:

- "You just watch such dangerous people threaten the safety of the village at any time?"

  Hiruzen:

- "During the Chunin Examination, I will send him out of the village to perform tasks so that he will not have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and destroy the village."

  Danzo sighed and said:

- "I hope your decision is right!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

  Third Hokage waved his hand, and an ANBU immediately appeared behind him:

- "Send a message to inform Jiraiya to return to the village."

- "Also, find Tsunade and tell her to come back and see me one last time."

  The ANBU was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but ask:

- "Sandaime-sama, what do you mean by this?"

  Third Hokage waved his hand:

- "Just do as I say."

  The ANBU could only say "yes" and leave.
