Ch. 93. Target, Hokage's Office. [2]

　　In ROOT Base.

　　Danzo escaped all the way back and is still in a state of confusion:

- "Why, why are [Kotoamatsukami] ineffective against him?"

- "[Kotoamatsukami]! The Most Powerful Genjutsu!"

- "Unable to control Mizuki?"

- "What kind of monster is Mizuki?"

He was already starting to feel fear.

　　If it weren't for the fact that Mizuki didn't have bandages on his body, he would have thought that Mizuki, like him, also had the [Sharingan] transplanted and used the [Izanagi] to offset the negative effects caused by [Kotoamatsukami].

　　Danzo:

- "The loss this time is too great."

Mizuki attacked him a 4 times, absorbing the 4 [Sharingan's] due to the [Izanagi], Danzo's heart was a bleeding.

　　Although he had looted a lot of [Sharingan] on the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated, losing 4 of them at once was too crazy.

　　If Mizuki is successfully controlled, then the loss of 4 Sharingan is nothing.

　　The key is, it didn't succeed!

　　Lost them in vain.

　　Danzo:

- "In addition to losing 4 [Sharingan], [Kotoamtsukami] are temporarily unable to use it."

His face was gloomy.

　　This technique of [Mangekyou Sharingan: Kotoamtsukami] has a very long cooldown time. If you use it once, you can only use it again ten years later.

　　Although Danzo's transplantation of Hashirama cells can greatly reduce the cooldown time of [Kotoamtsukami], it will take at least two or three years before they can be used again.

'That's weird, I thought he got his right eye, not his left. After all, it was the left one that was in Itachi's Crow eye socket and was used to break free from Edo Tensei's control. It looks like the author of this fanfic is a little confused, but oh well.'

　　Just when Danzo was sulking, a Root-ninja suddenly came to him:

- "Danzo-sama, Sandaime is coming with a large number of ANBU."

　　Danzo's expression changed:

- "What does Hiruzen want to do with such a big show?"

　　Soon, Hiruzen arrived:

- "Danzo, hand over Shisui's eyes. This is the property of the village and you have no right to take it as your own."

He was a very straightforward.

　　Danzo was shocked, but his expression remained unchanged. They are all veteran actors, and the city still has this:

- "Hiruzen, are you kidding? Shisui has been dead for so many years and his body has not been found. You ask me for his eyes?"

- "Where do you start talking about this?"

Of course he refused to admit it.

　　Hiruzen snorted coldly and waved his hand. An ANBU behind him stepped forward. Under the mask, a pair of white eyes stared at Danzo's right eye.

　　This is a member of the Hyuga family.

　　As an elder of Konoha and a leader at the ROOT's, Danzo held a high and powerful position, so the Hyuga family did not dare to investigate him with their white eyes.

　　Moreover, Danzo is like a mouse, staying in the sewers all day and night, rarely showing up, and there are not many opportunities for Hyuga ninjas to meet him.

　　This also led to the fact that Danzo had possessed Shisui's eyes for so many years without being discovered by Hiruzen.

　　Perhaps Hiruzen had suspicions for a long time, but because of their friendship, he never went into details.

　　But today's matter involved [Kotoamtsukami], Hiruzen couldn't help it, and directly ordered the Hyuga family to explore the secrets of Danzo.

　　Danzo scolded:

- "Bold, you dare to use your [Byakugan] to probe me, you are committing the crime."

　　Hiruzen said coldly:

- "Danzo, do you want to resist me, Hokage?"

　　Danzo immediately stopped.

　　At this moment, he knew that he could no longer hide it, so he said simply:

- "Okay, no need to look around, I will tell myself."

- "Yes, my right eye is indeed transplanted with Shisui's [Mangekyou Sharingan]."

There is nothing we can do if we don't admit it.

　　Hiruzen raised his hand to stop the Hyuga ninja's exploration:

- "So you were also responsible for Shisui's death?"

　　Danzo denied it and said:

- "No! It was Uchiha Itachi. In order to open the [Mangekyou Sharingan], he killed Shisui with his own hands and gave Shisui's right eye to me."

He really didn't dare to admit this.

　　Once he admitted that he wanted to take over the position of Godaime there was no hope anymore.

　　No one would support a man who killed fellow village ninjas becoming the new Hokage. After all, Shisui is a good person in everyone's mind.

　　Danzo's answer was noncommittal.

　　Of course he would not believe Danzo's words, but there was no evidence to prove that Danzo killed Shisui.

　　Hiruzen:

- "Give me Shisui's eyes, and this ends here."

He glanced at Danzo's bandaged right hand and did not pursue further.

　　Although he knew that Danzo must have a [Sharingan's] hidden in his right hand, Hiruzen chose to remain silent.

　　There is still use in keeping Danzo, if everything is exposed and everyone calls for beating, no one will take the blame in the future.

　　Hiruzen:

- "In addition, all Root-ninjas should gather at the Hokage Tower immediately. Danzo, after you hand over your eyes, go home to recuperate!"

　　Hiruzen left, taking Shisui's right eye with him, as well as all the Root-ninjas.

　　Danzo was filled with anger, but had nowhere to vent it.

　　He suffered a big loss at the hands of Mizuki, and now he was beaten by Hiruzen, even Shisui's eye was lost.

　　This blow is really too big!

　　The next morning, at the gate of Konoha Village, Mizuki met the caravan entrusted with the mission.

　　Complete the registration for leaving the village and prepare to leave the village.

　　At this moment, a group of people came from outside the village.

　　These people were wearing Sunagakure forehead protectors. Mizuki glanced at them and immediately paid attention.

　　This group of people are the people from Sunagakure Village who came to take the Chunin Exam.

　　Jounin Baki, Temari who carries a fan, Kankuro who carries a puppet, and Gaara who carries a gourd.

　　Mizuki's eyes stayed on Gaara longer.

　　Feeling Mizuki's gaze, Gaara turned his face and stared at Mizuki with a pair of panda eyes:

- "Do you want to die?"

　　Mizuki chuckled, not intending to get into conflict with the naughty child.

　　When the caravan left the village, Mizuki accompanied them to protect them.

　　Standing outside the gate, Mizuki looked back at Konoha, especially the iconic Hokage Building.

　　After advancing some distance, he suddenly sneered, and the next moment, there was a paper airplane in his hand.

　　Mizuki:

- "Sandaime, you try every means to kill me, but I always respond to passively."

- "This time, let you taste my retribution!"

　　The paper plane took off, like a bird flying high into the sky, passed through Konoha's perception barrier, and flew quickly towards the Hokage Tower.

　　Target, Hokage's office.
