Ch. 102. A strange combination of circumstances. [1]

Sandaime stopped talking.

He originally thought that Danzo was lying, but now that he heard the evidence, he began to look forward to it.

　　If there is really evidence, we can take action against Mizuki openly.

　　There are also assassinations and poisonings, just kill them directly.

　　Just because the Akatsuki can't kill Mizuki doesn't mean Konoha can't.

　　There were so many ninjas in the village, and they could wear him to death.

　　Daimyo urged:

- "Tell me about it!"

　　Danzo said to Dean and Nobita:

- "You two, tell me what you saw before."

　　Nobita tugged on the hem of the dean's clothes, his eyes full of prayer.

　　Dean sighed and said:

- "Mizuki, he has something with wings like a bird. The surface of that thing is covered with explosive tags."

- "At that time, the thing seemed to appear in his hand out of thin air, but he quickly put it into his ninja bag."

- "The children and I all saw it. A few children asked what it was, but Mizuki didn't explain."

　　Sandaime was speechless:

- "What is this?"

He turned to look at Danzo and asked accusingly:

- "Is this the evidence you found?"

　　Obviously, these alone are not enough to prove that it was Mizuki who attacked the Hokage Tower.

　　Danzo looked confident:

- "No one else but Mizuki."

- "First of all, the things on Mizuki's hands in the orphanage are enough to destroy the Hokage's office."

- "Secondly, according to Yamanaka Haiichi, it only took 3 seconds from the time the unknown object entered the barrier to the time the Hokage Tower was attacked. This kind of terrifying flying speed is definitely not something that a bird can achieve. Even a [Tailed Beast's Bomb], don't have such speed. Therefore, it is completely untrue to say that the murderer is Uchiha Itachi. And Mizuki knows space-time ninjutsu. I have reason to suspect that the unknown object that attacked the Hokage Tower was exerted by space-time ninjutsu, so it takes only 3 seconds to move from the barrier to the Hokage Tower."

　　Hearing this, Sandaime and the two advisors all nodded.

　　Danzo:

- "Finally, the unknown object entered the barrier from the direction of the village entrance. At that time, the caravan protected by Mizuki had only left the village for less than two minutes."

- "If it's a coincidence, then with so many coincidences put together, it definitely can't be a coincidence."

- "The murderer who attacked the Hokage Tower and caused the death of Daimyo's Lady is definitely Mizuki."

　　Everyone lowered their eyebrows and groaned.

　　At this time, Nara Shikaku said:

- "Although the reasoning is very reasonable, it is still too far-fetched."

- "We can't 100% prove that Mizuki is the murderer. We can only say that he is a suspect."

　　Danzo smiled and said:

- "As long as there is suspicion, it cannot be ignored. It is very simple to find out. Send someone to arrest him, and then send him to the torture squad for investigation."

- "If he doesn't resist, it means he is not the murderer."

- "If he resists, then there is something wrong in his heart."

　　Daimyo looked at Sandaime and asked:

- "Sandaime, what do you mean?"

　　Third Hokage glanced at Danzo and said:

- "Just do as Danzo said. However, Mizuki is very strong and has a very good ability to escape. We must be fully prepared."

- "If he resists, he must be killed instantly."

He finally made up his mind to take action against Mizuki.

　　Since there is evidence this time, it is an excellent opportunity.

　　Third Hokage:

- "Lord Daimyo, Mizuki is very strong. To prevent accidents, please return to Daimyo's Mansion first."

- "Leave the rest to us."

　　Daimyo nodded and said:

- "In that case, it's hard work."

　　Daimyo left with his officials and entourage, and the maid followed behind, hugging the cat Tora.

　　Just after leaving Konoha Village, Daimyo said in the sedan chair:

- "It's all my fault that this cat killed my wife. But it was my wife's favorite pet during her lifetime, and I won't kill it."

- "Throw it away and let it die!"

The maid could only throw the cat away.

　　As soon as the cat landed on the ground, it immediately ran away and disappeared into the woods on the roadside.

　　As a habitual offender, it's ability to survive in the wild is also first-rate, not inferior to that of wild cats.

　　Still in that office, Sandaime was making plans to deal with Mizuki.

　　Danzo left the conference room with Director of the orphanage and Nobita.

Dean:

- "Danzo-Sama, what you promised is..."

　　Danzo said:

- "Don't worry, since you have come out to testify against Mizuki, I will send someone to send those children back to the orphanage."

- "However, this child has ninja qualifications, and we need such talents at our ROOT's. Let him follow me from now on."

The face of Director of the orphanage changed, and his eyes were full of unbearable sadness.

　　He knew what he would face once he got to the ROOT.

　　Unfortunately, he didn't have the right to refuse.

　　In the conference room, Third Hokage listed Mizuki's abilities, especially his ability to escape:

- "The first is the unknown [Substitution Technique]. According to analysis, to use this technique, Mizuki needs to sense the target, and then he can exchange places with the target."

- "In addition to visual perception, Mizuki also has another kind of perception."

- "According to the news sent back by Kakashi, under the guidance of Mizuki, Sasuke can distinguish the movements around him by hearing even with his eyes closed, and can even accurately shoot down shurikens flying around him with kunai."

- "It can be seen from this that Mizuki's other sensory ability is the [Hearing Technique]."

"As long as Mizuki's vision and hearing are blocked so that he can't sense the objects around him, he won't be able to use this [Substitution Technique]."

- "Then, Mizuki can switch places with his [Clone Technique]..."

He already knows a lot about Mizuki's abilities.

　　The plans that were made were all specifically targeted at Mizuki.
