No, no, no, Danzo shouldn't do something as stupid as digging his own grave. Even if he's being monitored and is in a desperate situation, he wouldn't do something so foolish.
"Is it Orochimaru then?"
The Third Hokage, both shocked and angry, began to suspect.
Danzo's suspicion was too small, so the Third Hokage immediately shifted his suspicions to Orochimaru.
A large part of the experiments mentioned in the scrolls was handled and participated in by Orochimaru.
Danzo was the mastermind, but the blame ultimately fell on Orochimaru.
"Is this the main point?"
Tsunade couldn't help but roar:
"Although it's despicable that someone sold out the village's information, and I really want to catch this person, old man, don't you think this is ridiculous? The village has done so many dark things behind my back, and you and Danzo still have the nerve to say it's all for the good of the village."
"Is Konoha no longer Konoha without Wood Release?"
What angered Tsunade the most wasn't the fact that the village used the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama's cells for experiments, since after all, it was Senju Tobirama who started it.
The Third Hokage and others inherited Senju Tobirama's will, so doing these things wasn't surprising. Tsunade was aware of some of the early experiments.
All of that was in the past, and the experiments had been stopped. Even if she was unhappy, she wouldn't say much about it.
But what happened?
Collecting war orphans from the battlefield for experiments?
And even using Konoha's villagers and ninjas!
How heartless can one be?
"Didn't you say the experiments had been stopped? Then why is this still happening? War orphans, and even Konoha"s villagers and ninjas have suffered because of this. Is Wood Release really that important?"
Tsunade roared, her eyes red with anger. The Third Hokage, sweating profusely, quickly put down the scroll and raised his hand to explain:
"Tsunade, please believe me, although I've made many mistakes, I did indeed order the Wood Release experiments to be stopped. I was unaware of any subsequent experiments."
"So it was all Orochimaru's doing?"
Tsunade sneered coldly.
Is that even possible?
Does Orochimaru have that much authority?
Such experiments require enormous funding. Just the expensive medical equipment and various drugs would be more than enough for Orochimaru to handle.
Without sufficient funds, Orochimaru wouldn't be able to conduct experiments.
To say that the village didn't support this, Tsunade would never believe it.
"This is true."
The Third Hokage smiled bitterly.
He didn't know about Orochimaru's experiments, but he knew Danzo was involved. However, in the end, Danzo distanced himself and made Orochimaru take the blame.
The Third Hokage didn't want this scandal to spread, so he publicly declared that Orochimaru had defected from the village and became a rogue ninja.
The rest was kept hidden.
Where did the funding for the experiments come from?
It was obvious, from the Finance Department and the Logistics Department. At that time, Danzo had the authority to allocate some of the financial resources and materials from the Logistics Department.
In this, the two elder advisors also played a significant role.
"Haha~~~"
Tsunade, furious, kept taking deep breaths to control her rampaging emotions. She feared that she might lose control and punch the Third Hokage in the face.
"Crack!!!"
At this moment, the window of the Hokage's office was opened, and Jiraiya, who was lying on the windowsill, saw the angry Tsunade and the guilty and remorseful Third Hokage looking at him. He instinctively squeezed his legs together, scratched his head, and laughed awkwardly:
"It seems like I've come at the wrong time?"
"Sigh~~~ Come in."
If Tsunade could run back from the Daimyo's mansion and bring back such information, it meant that the matter couldn"t be covered up anymore.
The Third Hokage no longer had any intention of hiding it. He directly handed the scroll to Jiraiya.
Jiraiya cautiously jumped into the office and leaned against the window to read.
While reading the scroll, he didn't forget to observe Tsunade out of the corner of his eye. In case Tsunade showed any signs of losing her temper, he was ready to escape through the nearby window.
Even though he hadn't done anything wrong, Jiraiya had formed a habit of being cautious in such situations.
When Tsunade is angry, never, ever get too close to her, or you'll get beaten up.
But the alertness and caution only lasted a few seconds.
Holding the scroll, Jiraiya quickly forgot the possibility of Tsunade hitting someone.
He looked up in shock at the Third Hokage, then at Tsunade, who was standing to the side with her arms crossed and a dark expression.
His heart sank.
Could all this be true?
"Ahahaha…"
Laughing dryly, Jiraiya pulled his gaze back and looked at the scroll again, trying to laugh it off:
"Old man, don't joke with me like this early in the morning. Naruto has to go to school later, and I still need to take him to breakfast."
"Are you blind or brainless? How can something like this be a joke?"
Tsunade almost lost control of her emotions, glaring directly at him.
Jiraiya quickly threw the scroll aside and hid behind the Third Hokage, poking his head out:
"Tsunade, let's talk this over, don't resort to violence."
"Hmph!!!"
"Why don't you ask the old man yourself? They've done such a good job, and now it's been exposed. The intelligence scroll was even bought by the Daimyo from a bounty exchange. It's likely that Daimyos from other countries have also bought the same information."
This is a big deal.
Jiraiya"s mouth fell open.
"Old man, please tell me that all of this is fake, that the intelligence is inaccurate."
"I also wish it were fake."
Tsunade wanted to see how the Third Hokage would defend himself.
Faced with his disciple's questioning, the Third Hokage opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but found himself unable to say a word.
He could only face Tsunade and Jiraiya with silence.
Most of the information in the scroll was true, with only a small part being false.
At this point, the truth or falsehood no longer mattered. Even if there were some personal vendettas mixed in, the overall direction was correct.
The Third Hokage had no way to defend himself.
The Third Hokage chose silence, and silence meant admission.
Tsunade sat back on the sofa in disappointment, while Jiraiya felt like his mind was about to explode.
If you want to do experiments, just do experiments, but why desecrate the First Hokage's body?
And that's not all, why target war orphans, and even the villagers and ninjas of the village?
That's going too far!!!
The content of the scroll was shocking, the actions were heartless, completely devoid of humanity.
It's not just Tsunade who was disappointed. At this moment, even Jiraiya felt deep disappointment in the Third Hokage.
The Hokage's office fell silent. The three of them, master and students, didn't speak.
Tsunade was angry, the Third Hokage was filled with guilt and regret, and Jiraiya was torn with conflicting emotions.
"Hiruzen, what could have happened so early that you gathered everyone here?"
Soon after, the two elder advisors were the first to arrive at the Hokage's office.
The moment they opened the door and walked in, they noticed the strange atmosphere in the Hokage's office.
