Inside the Senju Clan compound, Kagutsuchi was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, holding his crutch with both hands.

At that moment, Hiruzen arrived with Danzo and others, standing in front of Kagutsuchi.

Kagutsuchi slowly opened his eyes and looked at Danzo. With a calm expression, he said, "You know, I made a mistake. I should have killed you that day. My only reason for sparing you was your ambition for the Hokage position. You were willing to go to any lengths and eliminate any competitors from your own village, which would weaken Konoha.

However, after I cut off your hands, it became apparent that seeking revenge on the Uzumaki clan and me became your top priority. Becoming Hokage became secondary, and even if you had achieved that title, you would have still sought to exact revenge on me or my family in some way."

Danzo started walking in Kagutsuchi's direction and spoke, "You are right. The day you cut off my hands and compared our small families to mere dogs in comparison to your large family, I felt incredibly humiliated.

You big clans are born with good bloodlines, and at least a few of you have the capability to become as strong as Kage-level shinobi. You are rich with numerous ninjutsu creations, thanks to your talents. And what are we? We, the small clans, work tirelessly day and night.

One day, you big clans will toss ninjutsu at us as if throwing bones to your dogs. That's the kind of humiliation my father and even my grandfather experienced because of this disparity.

That's why I hate big clans and will do anything to completely eradicate them. First, it was the turn of your Uzumaki family, then it would have been the Senju clan, and finally, it would have been the Uchiha family.

But all of this didn't happen solely because of you. The way you humiliated me made me understand how my father must have felt during those days."

"Uzumaki Kagutsuchi, I have only one regret. That day when my ROOT ninjas ambushed your granddaughter, I should have been there. At least then, I could have killed her with my own hands," said Danzo with a smirk. Hearing this, Kagutsuchi stood up, and his Reitsu reached its peak. Danzo, who was standing straight, bent in half, and Kagutsuchi's face turned completely cold, void of any expression.

"Haha, Uzumaki Kagutsuchi, no matter how powerful you may be, you can't escape this. Come, let's die together. Hahaha!" With madness on his face, Danzo laughed loudly and tore his upper body clothes, revealing the Reverse Four Symbols Sealing.

"Hiruzen, my friend, this is the last thing I'll do for Konoha," said Danzo, prepared to die alongside Kagutsuchi.

Bakudō #73, Tozanshō. Kagutsuchi raised his finger towards Danzo, and a point of light formed, creating an inverted pyramid around Danzo as its center, trapping him inside. However, all the black blood coming out of Danzo's body remained trapped within the pyramid, rendering Danzo's movements completely useless.

"Your courage is commendable, but you don't have the strength to back it up. What you said is correct, but it's a reflection of human nature. I will let you die in peace, but first, let me ask you: What was your clan's attitude towards the civilians? Did your clan treat them as friends or merely tools for your use, as you mentioned earlier, or did you treat them as dogs?

If you treated them the way you were treated, then you have no right to question me or any other big family. You know, when I was young, I never treated anyone from smaller families like dogs. Instead, I treated them as subordinates and showed them care to demonstrate modesty towards my subordinates. I even stopped my father and elders from mistreating them.

Later, my father sent me to observe how ninjas from smaller families behaved towards civilians. I witnessed those ninjas treating them like maggots, committing various atrocities against the weak civilians. From that point on, all small families became like dogs to me, and I kept them on a leash to prevent them from harming civilians. I did my best to avoid killing any civilians.

So, people like you have no right to pass judgment. I am well aware of how your Shimura clan operated." said Kagutsuchi.

Finally, a huge black sphere formed inside the inverted prison, but it was unable to break free from its confines. After a few minutes, the effect of Danzo's move dissipated, and his lifeless body fell to the ground.

Hiruzen approached and stood in front of Danzo's body, wearing a sorrowful expression and tears in his eyes. Despite the unfavorable actions Danzo had taken against the village, he had also paved a clear path for Hiruzen and ensured the stability of his Hokage position. In a true sense, Danzo was his best friend.

Danzo's other friends also shed tears at his passing, as they had spent a considerable amount of time with him and had undertaken numerous missions together.

Kagutsuchi left them to mourn and retired to rest, having spent the entire day traveling and fighting.
