the mutual demise of his teacher and comrade filled his heart with pain and confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the two advisors’ urging, he waved his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have a better candidate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two advisors exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tōnami Koharu couldn’t help asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My former teammate, Tsunade.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya lifted his head, his gaze revealing a hint of resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She is more suited to this position than I am.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shimura Danzō’s frown deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tōnami Koharu also frowned but remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizukado En spoke: “Tsunade is indeed a fine candidate, but she is not currently in the village.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya stood up: “I will go bring her back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for their reaction, he left the Hokage’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the door closing, silence once again engulfed the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, Shimura Danzō broke the suffocating quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not, however, propose himself as the next Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Danzō’s view, if Jiraiya truly succeeded in bringing Tsunade back, he would have no chance of becoming Hokage in the near term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, as a seasoned old coin, he set his sights not on the Hokage seat, but on the legacy left behind by the Third Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, not the Nine-Tails jinchuriki under Jiraiya’s watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That hot potato was not easy to covet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō’s target was Rojie—the ninja powerful enough to suppress a Tailed Beast!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough—have Itachi decided how to handle Rojie?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shimura Danzō’s voice was low and hoarse, carrying a hint of malicious probing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizukado En and Tōnami Koharu exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, he’s already eyeing the dead man’s assets?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despicable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizukado En spoke: “Rojie was cultivated by Hiruzen as his successor. Though powerful, he is far too young.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We plan to let Tsunade decide after she assumes office.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the implication in their words, Danzō realized they intended to follow Hiruzen’s original plan and groom Rojie as the future Hokage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shimura Danzō’s gaze sharpened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were true, would he ever have a chance to rise?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, absolutely not!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Danzō’s eyes flashed with cruelty as he spoke: “Root is best suited to train such a genius.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Danzō!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tōnami Koharu suddenly stood up, slamming her hand on the table in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice brimmed with warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We all know Root’s methods. Rojie was Hiruzen’s life’s work—he cannot be handed to Itachi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizukado En quickly pulled her back, signaling her to calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō snorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Itachi want to emulate Hiruzen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Itachi’re just an advisor—how dare Itachi tell me what to do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō rose abruptly, slammed the door, and left the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Danzō’s retreating back, Tōnami Koharu sat down again and let out a deep sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a room within the Hokage Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rojie was reviewing a forbidden technique scroll in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Rojie set down the scroll and slowly turned his head toward the room’s entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slightly hunched old man emerged slowly from the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was none other than the ambitious… Shimura Danzō.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are Itachi?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rojie asked, feigning ignorance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō ignored his question and coldly asked: “Itachi are Rojie?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hiruzen mentioned Itachi—he said Itachi were a promising talent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Rojie’s expression remained calm, utterly unruffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“From today on, Itachi are a Root ninja.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Danzō struck the floor hard with his cane, producing a dull thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your new name will be Kō.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rojie frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That name sounds familiar—isn’t that Yamato’s codename?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine, fine—giving me someone else’s unused name, is that it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Born evil, old man Danzō—Itachi’ve already earned your death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rojie finally spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whose order is this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō’s brow tightened, a flicker of displeasure in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is the village’s order, the high council’s order, and my own order!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rojie laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it’s the whim of a petty little man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He answers only to the Sun’s command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun has set—no one can command him now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, Rojie planned to wait until Jiraiya returned with Tsunade before making his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he would eliminate them all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Danzō, foolishly, had come to him himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, let him join his dear friend sooner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, Danzō’s pupils shrank violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A piercing agony surged from his right eye and right arm—blood gushed out like a fountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He widened his left eye in terror, only to find Rojie had vanished from before him and now stood behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Rojie’s hands, bathed in green light, were Danzō’s own right eye and right arm—long wrapped in bandages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō clutched his severed arm and let out a agonized scream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō hadn’t expected this kid to be so dishonorable, bullying an old man like him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Danzō felt this brat was deeply suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Danzō’s trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was clearly prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, could this be Hiruzen’s hidden move?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Danzō thought, the more his heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the Anbu ninjas hidden in the shadows and the Root ninjas accompanying Danzō finally snapped to attention, drawing their weapons and charging toward Luo Jie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Jie’s senjutsu chakra erupted instantly, a terrifying aura like an invisible storm sweeping through the entire room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding ninjas felt a crushing pressure slam into them, freezing them in place as if gripped by an invisible hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō, grievously wounded, was likewise paralyzed by this aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to struggle, but his body refused to obey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Luo Jie raised his right hand, his gaze cold as frost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old man Danzō, traveling a thousand li to deliver gear—small gift, great sentiment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Jie couldn’t possibly show no return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they were about to share a bond of heart and soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that instant, Luo Jie’s right hand pierced through Danzō’s chest from behind like a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene mirrored Madara’s death exactly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō had finally achieved something—he died the same way as Madara.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danzō’s lips parted slightly, the light in his eyes fading, his body slumping limp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1290,"2026-06-20T22:07:49.142Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
