162 Chapter 162: The Third Hokage's Exit.

"Minato, please give me an explanation for Danzo's matter."

Sarutobi Hiruzen came to Minato with a strong momentum, questioning angrily, his gritted teeth showed that his heart was suppressing extreme anger.

"Hasn't the announcement been issued? It was done by Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui. What else does the Third Hokage not understand?"

"Bullshit."

As soon as Minato's words fell, Hiruzen couldn't help but curse.

"Even though Uchiha Itachi is known as the first genius of the Uchiha clan, and Uchiha Shisui is not weak, how could they silently defeat Danzo.

You know, Danzo is the leader of the Root, and the cards he holds in his hands will definitely not die so easily. If they fight with the two, it will definitely cause a huge movement. Why didn't I hear any movement last night?"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen got up today and heard the news of Danzo's death, his eyes went dark and he almost fainted. Even when his wife died back then, he didn't feel this way.

"I didn't hear it either, maybe Danzo-sama was killed by Shisui and Itachi in seconds."

"Minato, don't deceive me with such lies anymore. Before I came, I had already seen Danzo's body. It was obviously after a fierce battle. If you don't give me an explanation today, I will never let it go."

"Oh? What kind of explanation does the Third Hokage want me to give you?"

At this moment, Minato's eyes also showed a cold light, looking coldly at the hot-tempered Third Hokage.

"Why Danzo died, the Third Hokage should be very clear, why do I need to say it so clearly?"

Hearing Minato say this, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately felt a bone-chilling cold.

"I really regret giving you the position of Hokage now, Minato."

Hiruzen finally said this sentence that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

"Even if the Third Hokage gave the position of Hokage to Orochimaru, or even Danzo, the result would be the same. No leader can allow others to encroach on their rightful power. Third Hokage you are too greedy."

Minato also said what was in his heart. This was the first time the two of them openly spoke their minds.

"If it weren't for Jiraiya-sensei and Biwako-senpai, Third Hokage you should know that your situation would definitely not be as comfortable as it is now."

Minato continued.

After all, Jiraiya is the Third's disciple, and Biwako-senpai once helped Kushina gave birth to Naruto. These two people are both kind to Minato. If it weren't for these two people, Minato would have put him under house arrest a long time ago.

"Minato, but after all, Danzo has made so many contributions to Konohagakure. Even if you don't like him, he doesn't deserve to die."

"Third Hokage? Not guilty of death? You should have known when you were in office what Danzo did. The human experiment incident at the beginning, although only Orochimaru took responsibility in the end, but Danzo also participated in it, right?"

The Third Hokage was silent.

"Do you think you owe your disciple in this matter?"

The Third Hokage still didn't answer.

"Just for this, I can sentence him to death. No matter how much he contributed to Konohagakure in the past, as long as he did something harmful to Konohagakure, he should be treated equally.

And this Uchiha incident, Danzo also cooperated with the other party, right? I think the Third Hokage should know about this, you know, this is a rebellion, I just strangled the danger in the cradle.

There are several Sharingan on Danzo's arm, which must have been obtained by killing many people from the Uchiha clan. The village should have been peaceful a long time ago, but because of Danzo's meddling, it has only started to stabilize until now. All of this is Danzo's sin.

I don't need to say more, right? And I think no one knows better than you how many bad things Danzo has done, Third Hoage"

At this moment, the Third Hokage had nothing to say at all. Indeed, no matter how many times Danzo did it, he deserved to die.

"Third Hokage, if I were you, I would find a place to enjoy my old age. If something happens to me one day, maybe you can come back to take charge of the situation, but I think the possibility of this happening is very small."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's fist clenched with anger gradually loosened, and his body seemed to have lost a breath, and the momentum just now had completely disappeared.

All that was left was the aura of a depressed old man, looking much more decadent compared to just now, and his body seemed to be much more hunched.

"I lost, I lost completely this time, I will not ask about all the duties of Hokage in the future, Konohagakure village is up to you."

After speaking, the Third Hokag eturned around and left directly.

Arriving with a strong momentum, leaving in despair, in just a few minutes, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt as if he had lost everything in an instant, as if he had left nothing in his life.

"Father."

As he walked out of the office, Hiruzen also saw Asuma who had been waiting outside the door. When he saw Asuma's worried eyes, he felt as if his heart was filled with something.

"Father, the Fourth Hokage didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Sarutobi Asuma asked with some concern. When he learned of Danzo's death, he knew his father would definitely not sit still.

But he was still a step too late. When he arrived at the door, he had already heard his father arguing with the Fourth Hokage.

"No."

The Third Hokage shook his head.

"Asuma, Minato is a good Hokage, a competent Hokage. Don't prejudice against Minato because of me. I hope you can do your best to protect Konohagakure. After all, this is also the village I once wanted to protect with all my might."

"Don't worry, father, I will."

Sarutobi Asuma nodded firmly.

Although his father failed in the struggle for power, Asuma's heart did not harbor any resentment towards Minato.

After all, he had long anticipated this day. If he became Hokage, he would definitely not allow outsiders to interfere with his rights.

He just didn't expect the Fourth Hokage to be so dominant, almost wiping out all his father's helpers. Even the few who slipped through the net couldn't make any difference.

"That's good, you and your brother are my greatest pride in this life."

After patting Asuma on the shoulder, the Third passed by him.

At this moment, Asuma felt that his father suddenly became a bit strange. The spirited scholar of the ninja world, the heroic Third Hokage, no longer existed.

All that was left was an old man who wanted to enjoy his old age.

"If possible, I would like you to take my place and become the Fifth Hokage."

Suddenly, a sentence reached Asuma's ears again.

"Don't worry, father, I will try my best."

Asuma wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and said firmly.
