Chapter 31 - Hiruzen Sarutobi's Seven Deadly Sins

"It's not enough. Hiruzen Sarutobi should pay for what he did."

Nawaki unconsciously stroked his knees without any warmth, and a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes.

He seemed to be back to the time when he was on the verge of death, that pain, that silence, that despair.

Hiruzen Sarutobi should pay the price for what he did.

The first step is to destroy the reputation he has built up over the years.

This is easy because everything Hiruzen Sarutobi did was both praised and criticized. Since he was the Hokage, he suppressed all news that was unfavorable to him.

Now is the best time.

The Senju clan left, and different voices appeared in Konohagakure.

The ninja world is unstable, and other ninja villages and ninja countries are scrutinizing him, the unworthy Hokage, to see if he has the ability and prestige to take on this important task.

The people in the conference room felt a chill and stopped watching the show.

They were all victims of Hiruzen Sarutobi's reign and should seek justice for themselves and the Senju clan.

Dōma Senju noticed Nawaki Senju's attitude and his eyes were full of heartache.

"Since Hiruzen Sarutobi likes to use this method, then let him feel the pain of rumors."

Nawaki Senju realized his mistake and regained his gentle expression. He took out a stack of papers and distributed them.

A few large characters came into view.

[Hiruzen Sarutobi's Seven Deadly Sins!]

[The first crime was that his position was illegitimate. He was clearly a bodyguard of the Hokage, but under the guise of a bodyguard, he went to protect Tobirama Senju during negotiations with Kumogakure. In the end, it was Tobirama Senju, who possessed Hiraishin no Jutsu, who died. The so-called order for him to succeed the Hokage was nothing more than a collusion between several bodyguards to shirk their responsibilities. ...]

Fundamentally, he does not recognize the legitimacy of Hiruzen Sarutobi as Naruto.

He not only questioned Hiruzen Sarutobi, but also the Elders of Konohagakure. In the alliance ceremony in the 16th year of Konohagakure, Tobirama Senju died in the conspiracy of Kumogakure, but Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was his guard, and the current Elders survived.

That is Tobirama Senju, who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Several guards who were weak at the beginning have now become the rulers of Konohagakure and the beneficiaries. They also forced the Senju clan to leave Konohagakure.

[The second sin was to play with the corpse of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and to dig him out of the coffin to study the Senju clan's unique bloodline limit and conduct human experiments. ...]

Disrespecting heroes, denying the establishment of Konohagakure, and desecrating the corpses of Konohagakure's heroes.

Those who sacrificed for Konohagakure were not respected and could not rest in peace after death. How could anyone still make sacrifices for Konohagakure?

[The third sin was having a reputation in vain, building up a false reputation for himself as a Ninjutsu Doctor. However, all the Ninjutsu and forbidden techniques he mastered were recorded in the Book of Seals.

The so-called profound knowledge is all pretended, all the legacy of Tobirama Senju.

Ordinary civilian ninjas and family ninjas who want to exchange high-level ninjutsu and forbidden techniques need to make great contributions. It is not him who uses the Book of Seals to enhance his reputation.

What are your famous ninjutsu? What are your achievements?

No!

All of these are achievements that I boasted about myself.

All of this is the achievement of Tobirama Senju.

[The fourth sin is the failure to distinguish between public and private. He regards everything in Konohagakure as his own private property. He uses his power to embezzle Konohagakure's assets.]

From the Book of Seals to Konohagakure's Ninja School, ANBU, and hospital, all were controlled by him.

The fifth deadly sin is jealousy of the virtuous. He controls Konohagakure's ratings and the release of ninja missions without respecting the facts.

A ninja who clearly possesses great strength receives disproportionate rewards because of the mechanism he controls.

A large number of ninjas who clearly possess the strength of a Jōnin can only receive the basic compensation of a Genin.

[The sixth sin... embezzlement... Using the power given by the villagers of Konohagakure, he allowed the Sarutobi and Nara clans to take over the channels once used by the Senju clan and make a fortune from the war.

The prices of grain and medicinal herbs purchased from the Land of Rice have increased several times, and the consequences are borne by the finances of the Land of Fire and the villagers of Konohagakure.

[The seventh deadly sin... multiple murders and unfair treatment of the heir of the Senju clan... They say that Nawaki Senju is incompetent, but the resources he received were not as good as Tsunade, and far less than Sarutobi Shinnosuke.

The shameless Hiruzen Sarutobi actually chose a Tokubetsu Jōnin who was good at basic teaching to teach his juniors...

This is unheard of. They really value education. They want to keep the position of Hokage in the Sarutobi clan. For generations, Konohagakure will be the private property of the Sarutobi clan!

At first, no one took it seriously.

When I saw this title, I felt a little sarcastic and thought that Nawaki Senju just wanted revenge.

The so-called seven deadly sins attack Hiruzen Sarutobi's personal morality.

Over the years, even the Daimyō of the Land of Fire knew about Hiruzen Sarutobi's lust.

With a reputation like that, is there anything worth attacking?

But the more I looked, the more surprised I became.

Each one of them has substance and can be verified by evidence.

Not only did he have poor personal ethics, he was also lustful. Even when it came to matters of family and country, he made unforgivable mistakes.

Half of the things that ignited their anger were related to the Senju clan.

Combining the experience of the Senju clan, we discovered that the decline of the Senju clan was due to the planning of Hiruzen Sarutobi, and all the things they lost were swallowed up by the Sarutobi clan.

He also used the body of Hashirama Senju to remind them of the events of a few years ago.

A large number of members of the Senju clan died mysteriously and turned into trees.

That unique way of dying was the Mokuton backlash.

Konohagakure is using members of the Senju clan to conduct Mokuton experiments.

The other half is also something they once could not tolerate.

The Senju clan dedicated their family to Konohagakure, and the Sarutobi clan represented by Hiruzen Sarutobi lay on Konohagakure and kept sucking blood, causing the Sarutobi clan to undergo a transformation.

The two families took completely opposite actions and achieved different results.

The Senju clan is on the verge of extinction, while the Sarutobi clan is thriving.

They don't believe it, don't understand it, and don't accept it.

Is this really how the world works? Good people die first, becoming stepping stones for evil ones.

Every Senju member had a gloomy expression on their face as they realized how foolish they had been.

A bitter smile appeared on Dōma Senju's face. He didn't expect that Hiruzen Sarutobi hid so deeply and did so many things.

They smiled at each other and felt more at ease with the leadership of Nawaki Senju.

The other senior ninjas also regained their composure. Some of them still had waves of shame on their faces. They had been deceived so badly. Fortunately, such things would not happen again.

The anger burning in my heart did not go out.

"Chief, this is truly eye-opening. But I still feel a little unsatisfied. Is it enough to just condemn and expose such a crime?

I want to do it myself."

Dōma Senju said sincerely.

The other Jōnin nodded in agreement, becoming even more convinced of Nawaki Senju.
