This dealt a heavy blow to Hiruzen Sarutobi's prestige within Konohagakure.
If Nawaki Senju really leads the Senju clan back to Konohagakure, then Hiruzen Sarutobi's position as Hokage will definitely be impacted.
Asuma Sarutobi is also a hurdle that he cannot overcome.
The Senju clan has stood against Hiruzen Sarutobi.
This is also the reason why he wants to give it a try. He has been coveting that position for a long time.
Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I want to give it a try.
If the Senju clan returns, he will sit on the Hokage throne that he has always dreamed of.
boom...
Just as he was thinking, there was an explosion, and a big hole appeared on the roof of the embassy. A ragged corpse fell on the table in front of him.
"Protect Danzo-sama!"
The guard beside Danzo Shimura stood in front of Danzo Shimura and looked up at the big hole that appeared on the roof.
Another person came forward to check.
"Whose body is it?"
Attention was focused on the corpse.
The corpse lay face up on the table, with several large holes on its body. The blood had long since dried up, forming lumps and spots, emitting a fishy smell.
"He had been dead for over five hours. He had six penetrating wounds, each 30 centimeters in diameter."
The ninja who went forward to investigate was full of doubts and turned back and said to Danzō Shimura.
I searched in my mind what weapon had caused this wound, but I couldn't remember after searching through my memory.
Danzo Shimura frowned.
What's going on? Why is this body here?
"Danzo-sama, this is Sakuragi Senju of the Senju clan."
The guard beside him carefully identified the face of the corpse, with a hint of surprise in his tone.
"Damn it!"
Danzo Shimura cursed inwardly, and at the same time noticed that there were other ninjas approaching.
The corpses of the Senju clan!
Frame-up!
As Root, a possibility suddenly came to mind.
This is also the reason why Nawaki Senju did not hide it.
"Fūton: Daitoppa!"
Danzo Shimura formed seals with his hands, placed them in front of his mouth, and his chest bulged high.
call...
Powerful wind blades blew out of his mouth, targeting the corpses and the buildings in front of him.
Rumble...
The corpse was blown against the wall like a piece of rag. Strangely, the wall turned into ashes, while the corpse remained relatively intact and fell to the ground.
"How is that possible?"
Danzo Shimura's pupils shrank slightly as he looked in the direction where the body fell.
According to the power of his Fūton jutsu, even if the corpse was made of hard stone, it would be turned into powder and destroyed by him.
But during the attack just now, small saplings grew out of Sakuragi Senju's body, absorbing the power of Wind Release and keeping the body intact.
His plan failed.
Could it be Mokuton?
tread...
tread...
…
A series of footsteps.
"Elder Danzo, long time no see."
Nawaki Senju led the Senju clan's ninjas to the embassy, and just saw Danzo Shimura using Wind Release to destroy the body.
Fortunately, they had a contingency plan early on and used Mokuton to protect the body.
He had also met Danzō Shimura several times. Because of his original body's carefree personality, he had never concealed his dislike for Danzō Shimura.
Danzo Shimura was very polite to him.
"Senju Nawaki?"
There was a strange look on Danzo Shimura's face, and he was a little surprised.
The Senju Nawaki in front of me has not changed much in appearance, but the feeling it gives people is no longer as warm and sunny as before.
He saw the shadow of Hiruzen Sarutobi in Nawaki Senju. On the surface, he smiled at everyone he met, but in his heart he was already planning everything for you.
Would the originally simple-minded Nawaki Senju resort to such a treacherous scheme to frame someone?
The situation was getting worse and worse, and he seemed to have fallen into a trap.
Such a sudden change attracted the attention of many people. Representatives from other ninja villages nearby were also awakened by the huge noise and came out to watch the excitement.
They recalled their mission, to gather information about the Senju clan, especially their attitude towards Konohagakure.
The changes happening before their eyes were exactly what they wanted to see, and they all became interested.
"The Konohagakure delegation has no sincerity at all. They killed the elders of the Senju clan in our new home. This is a provocation to the Senju clan. There is no need for them to continue to exist!"
Nawaki Senju's face was calm, but the words that came out of his mouth shocked everyone.
What does this mean?
Want to destroy Konohagakure's delegation?
Even if two hostile forces send a delegation to enter the other side's embassy, their safety will be protected.
The reason was a corpse of unknown origin.
The experienced ninja present could see the long dead body and realized that something was wrong.
The excuses given by Nawaki Senju were too perfunctory and full of loopholes.
The smart spectator took a few steps back and had the answer in his mind.
This is Nawaki Senju, who is showing them the position of the Senju clan.
As rumored in the ninja world, an irreconcilable conflict arose between the Senju clan and Konohagakure.
Jump out of the battlefield and continue to pay attention to changes in the situation on the field.
As the Konohagakure side slandered, the mood at this time was even more complicated, full of frustration and unwillingness, and they looked at the backbone Danzō Shimura.
Some people can no longer bear it.
" Nawak i Senju, don't you even know the most basic common sense? With the body in such a decomposed state, how could we have had time to kill him hours ago? This is someone else framing him!"
On the Konohagakure side, the ANBU who was planted by Hiruzen Sarutobi to monitor Danzo Shimura began to argue, with a hint of contempt in his words.
Even though he was an inexperienced ANBU, he was able to detect the flaws.
"Yeah! Frame-up? Isn't that what Konohagakure is, isn't that what you ANBU love to do?"
Nawaki Senju nodded and asked back.
Konohagakure's slander against him was full of loopholes and flaws, but some people still believed it.
Was he able to command the Jōnin of the Ino–Shika–Chō? And he was so greedy that he stepped into the enemy's trap?
Nawaki Senju recalled the scene when he was slandered, and like the ANBU in front of him, he wanted to question those who slandered him.
Only those who have wronged you know how wronged you are.
Some people know that you are being wronged, but they don't want to explain for you. Either they are incapable of doing so, or it is in their own best interests.
By doing this, he was also learning from Konohagakure.
Danzō Shimura looked at the ANBU who was monitoring him, and couldn't understand why Hiruzen Sarutobi would send such an idiot to monitor him?
I was feeling a bit relieved before, but now it seems like a disaster.
