Chapter 1058: , War Resumes

Facing Danzo's threat, the already cold smile on Sate's lips carried a hint of disdain.

Watching Sate's expression, Danzo was angry, but a sudden ominous premonition arose in his heart.

Soon, this ominous premonition became reality.

"Creeeak!!!!"

The Third Kazekage suddenly stood up abruptly, the wooden chair and the floor emitting a harsh screeching sound.

He stared fixedly at Danzo with sharp, piercing eyes and spoke word by word.

"Then take your bullshit agreement and go repent in hell."

"Since Konoha wants to fight, then let's keep fighting!"

As the Third Kazekage's words fell, a look of rebellious ferocity appeared on his handsome, extraordinary face.

Looking at Sate's young face, a flash of astonishment and disbelief crossed Danzo's eyes.

He never expected that.

Sunagakure, which had been utterly defeated on the battlefield by Hatake Sakumo, would suddenly defect at the final moment of negotiations.

"How dare he?"

Amidst his shock and anger, Danzo stared back at the Third Kazekage with a cold, snake-like gaze without flinching.

In this instant, a thousand thoughts flashed through Danzo's mind.

As a disciple of the Second Hokage and the "Ninja of Darkness" who headed Konoha's Root organization,

Danzo was naturally not easily intimidated.

Although Sunagakure's sudden defection was outside of Danzo's expectations, it was not enough to make him panic.

Almost instantly, Danzo accepted this result.

And this result was extremely unfriendly to Danzo.

It was true that Sunagakure had once been beaten into admitting defeat and surrendering.

But the person who had sent Sunagakure scurrying and forced them to concede was not him, Danzo!

Right now, everyone in Konoha Village knew.

Danzo had replaced Hatake Sakumo to take charge of the negotiations with Sunagakure at the front lines.

As soon as Danzo replaced Hatake Sakumo, Sunagakure, which had previously been respectful, suddenly turned hostile and wanted to restart the war.

Anyone would subconsciously compare Danzo to Hatake Sakumo.

As a result, Danzo's reputation in the village would likely decline further.

For Danzo, and even for the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who made this appointment, this would be a massive blow to their prestige.

Thinking of this, Danzo naturally hated the Third Kazekage before him to the core.

Seeing that the Third Kazekage had completely torn off the mask, Danzo understood that there was no longer any need to continue talking.

"Bastard!"

"You actually dare to do this! Just wait for Konoha's retaliation!!!"

At once, Danzo also stood up indignantly and rebuked the Third Kazekage loudly.

"Heh."

"I look forward to it!"

The Third Kazekage, Sate, sneered and waved his hand behind him.

"Swish!!!!"

Instantly, the Suna-nin beside the Third Kazekage shed the white gauze robes they were wearing, revealing their true appearance.

"This is…"

Danzo's expression changed again.

The Ninja World is as large as it is small.

The number of jonin in the five great ninja villages is limited, and intelligence on their famous ninjas is naturally not difficult for other villages to obtain.

As the leader of the Root organization, Danzo naturally has a thorough grasp of almost all intelligence within Konoha.

At this moment, Danzo suddenly realizes that those following behind the Third Kazekage are all powerful ninjas who have long been famous in Sunagakure.

Moreover, these ninjas almost all share one attribute.

That is: they are all sand-manipulators who use sand-manipulation ninjutsu.

Previously, due to the conflict between Chiyo and the Third Kazekage, ninjas skilled in sand-manipulation ninjutsu did not appear on the battlefield.

And precisely because of this, these combat forces were preserved.

Now, the Third Kazekage has brought his elite subordinates to "talk," and there is naturally no need to say what intentions he harbors.

That is correct.

The Third Kazekage, Sate, had long anticipated that a battle with Danzo would likely be inevitable today.

At this moment, Danzo suddenly thinks of something and immediately shouts loudly.

"Attack!"

Instantly, the several Root ninjas beside Danzo also draw their weapons simultaneously, choosing to strike first to gain the advantage.

In an instant, a variety of secret techniques and bladed tools are unleashed toward the Suna ninjas on the opposite side.

Yet, in response to this, only a trace of disdain flashes in the eyes of the Third Kazekage.

"Swish!"

He merely forms hand seals with a wave of his hand, and an indestructible iron sand barrier instantly condenses, intercepting every single attack from the Root ninjas.
