Chapter 177: Yeruashi VS Namikaze Minato

"You're too impulsive, Yeruashi."

Minato kept calm, looked at Yeruashi and said, "Danzo was an advisor to the Hokage, even if he did something, there should be a formal trial..."

"Then, what would be the outcome of this trial?"

Yeruashi looked at Minato and said, "The Hokage's Advisor, who has held this position for many years, has made an attempt against the Hero of Konoha. As a result of the trial, he would be stripped of his position as the Hokage's advisor. forced to dissolve Root and, at most, add to this a prison sentence."

In fact, Minato will strictly follow the rules in this matter, but some of the Hokage's power is in the hands of Hiruzen and others, so Danzo would definitely not receive the death sentence.

If a man like Danzo does not have his life taken away, it is likely that he is plotting something in the dark.

This is inevitable.

In the anime, when Danzo tried to kill Hiruzen, he simply stripped him of his position as an advisor and ordered him to disband Root, but did not kill him. As a result, Danzo reorganized Root and then stayed away from incidents such as Pain and Orochimaru's raids, as well as Kyubi's rampage.

Danzo would never step back, and the so-called good and protection of Konoha was just an excuse. From start to finish, this man only craved power and sought to satisfy his ambitions.

"The process would have been carried out in accordance with all laws."

Minato raised his hand clutching the kunai and looked at Yeruashi, "But you killed the Hokage's advisor on your own, and I, as the Fourth Hokage, am obligated to stop you...you must understand me, Yeruashi."

After these words.

Minato threw a kunai with a Hiraishin seal in Yeruashi's direction.

Whoosh!

A silver light shone, and Yeruashi's figure appeared behind Minato, thin silver lines cutting through the air.

Minato's figure instantly disappeared, appearing in the position of the newly thrown kunai.

Although Minato dodged Yeruashi's attack, but his Hokage cloak was cut off. If his reaction had been slower, he would have been hit by this attack.

"So fast!"

Minato was stunned.

Although he had heard of Yeruashi's speed, it wasn't until he came face to face with him that Minato realized how terrifying the Silver Flash's speed was.

Whoosh!

Minato's figure became a blur, rushing towards Yeruashi and throwing the Hiraishin-sealed kunai at him again, but this time, instead of dodging, Yeruashi swung the Kusanagi sword sharply in front of him.

Kacha!!!

The Kunai with the Hiraishin seal was destroyed in flight.

Minato was stunned again.

"Such reaction and attack power, it is capable of destroying my kunai in the blink of an eye? The second stage will also be useless, it seems I can only rely on the Super Circular Howl Dance Style Flash Spiral Three combined with Shuriken's shadow cloning technique."

Minato quickly analyzed the situation and instantly disappeared.

Boom!!!

At the place where he was a moment ago, the ground was split by a flash of silver light.

In the next moment.

Minato, who appeared not far away from Yeruashi, simultaneously launched a large amount of kunai with the Hiraishin seal, at the same time, an even larger amount of shadow kunai clones appeared in the air.

Each shadow kunai clone, almost simultaneously, flashed a bright yellow glow that could blind any normal person.

Whoosh!

Yeruashi narrowed his eyes and abruptly swung the Kusanagi sword in front of him, throwing out a large number of silver slashes that formed an extremely dense net that instantly destroyed all the kunai flying towards him from the front.

But due to the overly large range of this move, there were quite a few kunai that flew quite far to Yeruashi's sides and did not meet his attack, among them were two kunai that had a slightly strange flight path. Flying past Yeruashi, they are confronted by other kunai.

Klang!!!

One of them abruptly changed direction, flying over Yeruashi's back.

Minato's figure appeared in the position of a kunai, a hand with Rasengan was directed towards Yeruashi's shoulder.

"Rasengan!!!"

Although his visual perception was blocked, Yeruashi could still sense Minato's movement and swung his sword backwards sharply, but the latter instantly disappeared again, dodging the attack.

When Yeruashi reacted to Minato's appearance behind him, he missed the second kunai, which also changed its trajectory abruptly, but flew to the front.

Whoosh!

Minato suddenly appeared in front of Yeruashi and again attacked his Rasengan in the shoulder.

It worked!

A light shone in Minato's eyes, but in the next instant, his expression changed abruptly, because the Rasengan did not cause any damage at the moment of collision with Yeruashi's body, instead, it abruptly froze and dissipated instantly without a trace.

At the same time.

Yeruashi already swung his Kusanagi Sword in Minato's direction.

"Damn!"

Minato's eyes snapped open and he activated Hiraishin without hesitation, instantly appearing nearby, but due to the fact that the previous move was too big and Yeruashi's speed was simply terrifying, he couldn't avoid the attack completely.

His Hokage cloak ripped and a bleeding wound appeared on his right shoulder.

Yeruashi calmly looked at Minato.

"I can't stop you..."

Minato looked at Yeruashi in a few seconds and then sighed.

He had absolute confidence in his abilities and believed that he could defeat even Yeruashi, but the truth was that he couldn't.

He had exhausted almost all his resources, but the last Rasengan could not overcome the enemy defenses. At the end of this collision, we can say that it is too difficult to threaten Yeruashi.

If he doesn't use Shiki Fujin.

But Yeruashi was not one of those against whom it was hard to use this technique.

After all, he's not going to destroy Konoha.

"In fact, everything worked out very well for you, Danzo's death is in your favor."

Yeruashi turned to Minato.

Minato shook his head and said, "Maybe so, but as Hokage, I can't solve problems this way and I will protect the village in my own way."

"That's why they supported you as Hokage."

Yeruashi said indifferently.

Whoosh, whoosh!!!!

At that moment, Hiruzen finally arrived.

He immediately turned his attention to the remains lying on the ground and Minato's wound, then turned to Yeruashi.

Hiruzen's voice was heavy and a bit stressed, "Yeruashi.... Danzo..."

"Dead."

Yeruashi looked at Hiruzen and asked casually, "Are you going to do that too, Hiruzen?"

Hiruzen's face darkened, he looked at Minato and once again looked at the remains of Danzo lying nearby, then turned to Yeruashi, making a decision, saying, "Danzo launched a covert attack against the Hero of Konoha, and you acted in self-defense. I am announcing the dissolution of Root and the removal of Danzo from his position as Hokage Advisor posthumously...this concludes the matter."

From Minato's injury, it can be concluded that they had already entered the battle and Minato would most likely be defeated.

Although Hiruzen was experiencing very difficult emotions due to the death of a partner he had worked side by side with for many years, he was well aware that he could not allow the internal differences to continue to worsen.

"So be it."

Yeruashi looked at Hiruzen and Minato, saying, "Minato, since you think you can protect Konoha in your own way, I will leave it to you and not interfere in village affairs from now on. Never send people to spy on me again, this is the last warning."

After these words.

Yeruashi's figure turned into a silver flash and disappeared.

Hiruzen looked at the remains of Danzo, and Minato in the direction where Yeruashi had just disappeared, his eyes were heavy.

"I'm sorry... Yeruashi...

Minato whispered softly. He knew Danzo was responsible for what happened and he could understand Yeruashi's behavior, but as Hokage, he had a duty to protect the laws of Konoha and he could not allow them to be violated.

There is no right or wrong here.

There are only different views and beliefs.

But in Minato's opinion, there was nothing wrong with Yeruashi refusing to interfere in village affairs, because as Hokage, he is sure that he can protect Konoha by himself!
