Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 726: Not Cooperative

Chapter 726: Not Cooperative

Outside the charred and cracked Anbu’s Headquarters building, dozens of renovation workers are busy repainting and installing glass on the building.

When the nearby villagers saw the danger is eliminated, they spontaneously gathered around and pointed at it. some said it was Missing-nin’s doing, some said it was the Kirigakure’s Shinobi, and some said it was Rogue Shinobi. It wasn’t until some Anbu came forward and repeatedly ensuring them that it was just an exercise that they dispersed.

Not long after, Minato, Kanp? and Hiruzen arrived.

“Hokage-sama, Sandaime-saa.” The Anbu guarding the door greeted quickly when he saw the people coming.

Minato smiled and nodded: “Take us to see Advisor Danzo consultant.”

“Yes, please follow me.”

The Anbu turned around and led the way, heading straight to the underground level.

Danzo was locked in the deepest prison on the first floor.

At this time, Danzo was already awake. He checked himself and found that the Chakra inside his body had been completely sealed, and the ninja bag, sealing scrolls and other things on his body had also been stripped clean.

Danzo showed an unwilling sneer.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, lowered his eye, and waited quietly.

Soon, the iron prison door slowly opened with a clicking sound.

“Hokage-sama, please.” The Anbu bowed and stood aside, waiting for Minato, Hiruzen and Kanp? to enter before he gently closed the door, and then stood aside.

“Danzo, sigh…”

When Hiruzen saw Danzo, he let out a series of long sighs.

“Even now, you are still acting so pretentious. As expected of you, Hiruzen.” Danzo raised his eye, and his one eye is like a trapped beast in the dark environment, with a sharp edge that could tear everything apart.

Hiruzen was not angry, and said with a wry smile: “Danzo, why have you come to this point?”

‘Why?’

Danzo sneered coldly: ‘If Tobirama-sensei chose me as Sandaime Hokage back then, if you chose Orochimaru as your successor back then, then I really wouldn’t have come to this point.’

‘Why are you still asking?’

‘You already know it in your heart, right?’

Danzo could not stand Hiruzen more and more, so he shifted his gaze and looked towards Minato.

“Yondaime…I underestimated you.”

Danzo took a deep breath and said, “I thought you were just Hiruzen’s puppet, but I didn’t expect you to be so outstanding!”

Fugaku previously said on Hokage Rock that Shisui’s defection was instructed by Minato, and the purpose was to infiltrate into a Missing-nin organization.

This is all basic exercise. Danzo himself often sends his Root’s Shinobi to sneak into the enemy country as an undercover agent, but Danzo is shocked that Minato was able to use this matter to lay out a plan. First, he pretended to agree with Koharu and Homura to put pressure on the Uchiha Clan, causing Uchiha Clan’s internal complaints to be heard, and then induced him to take the initiative to collude with Uchiha Clan, and finally… wiped out Danzo with the Root that he spent most of his life working on!

Moreover, during this period, he also asked Koharu and Homura to resign on their own initiative, and cut off both of Danzo’s hands!

If the two advisors do not resign, Danzo would not have been so passive!

For these meticulous plans, it is absolutely impossible for it to be instructed by Hiruzen, because Danzo knew exactly who Hiruzen was, and he did not have that kind of courage!

Therefore, Danzo had to admit that Minato was a formidable opponent!

Whether on the battlefield or off the battlefield.

Perhaps because of being a prisoner, Danzo's psychological drama is particularly rich, although his facial expression is still sinister, cold, and inhumane.

Minato looked at Danzo and said: “Danzo, in order to realize your ambitions, you ordered Root to attack Hokage Tower, Anbu’s Headquarters, Military Police Force’s Headquarters, Academy, Konoha Hospital and other places with Gozu Tenno. This is a heinous crime. In the name of Yondaime Hokage, I formally dismissed your position as advisor and disband the Root at the same time!”

“That shouldn’t be all, right?” Danzo said with a calm face.

“You will spend the rest of your life in Konoha Prison.” Minato said.

Danzo nodded and immediately laughed like a madman: “Hahahaha, Yondaime, you can just ask someone to inform me about this kind of thing, why bother to come here in person?”

Minato frowned when he heard this.

“Sure enough!”

Danzo sneered again and again, “You… have something to beg me of.”

“Beg?”

Kanp? is unhappy, so he stepped forward with his hand on his hips, then pointed Danzo’s forehead with the other, “Danzo, you are no longer an advisor, you are just a prisoner! Do you know where it is? Do you know why the blood is red? Do you…”

“Kanp?, enough!”

Hiruzen can’t stand it anymore. Even though Danzo has made a lot of mistakes, but at the end, he’s still his friend from childhood to adulthood!

Danzo deserved to be punished in Konoha Prison, but other than that, he, Sarutobi Hiruzen, would never allow others to bully his old friend!

Kanp? stopped talking.

And Danzo…he looked at Hiruzen, curled his lips, and showed a disdainful sneer: “You haven’t changed at all even after so many years, Hiruzen, it's your appearance that upsets me the most!”

Hiruzen doesn’t seem to listen to Danzo’s words. At this moment, he is immersed in his memories and emotional world, with a trace of tears overflowing from his old eyes: ‘Danzo, my old friend, our lost youth…’

“Danzo, the information about the Gozu Tenno must be destroyed, and the surviving Root’s Shinobi will also be monitored by Anbu until it is confirmed that they will not cause harm to Konoha. Can you understand this?” Minato asked.

“Of course I can understand, but shouldn't these be things that you, the higher-ups, should be concerned about?”

Danzo lowered his gaze, “What do you do with me, a prisoner?”

Seeing this, Minato frowned: ‘So uncooperative?’

He turned to look at Kanp?, after all, Kanp? had many strange ideas.

“Hokage-sama, the Root is very loyal to Danzo. As long as we use Danzo as bait, we can fish them out!” Kanp? said immediately.

Hiruzen frowned, then looked Minato, but hesitated to speak.

Danzo laughed, and said coldly: “Although my subordinates are loyal, it does not mean that they are foolishly loyal! Unless you want to publicly execute me, there is no guarantee that they will take action.”

“It doesn’t matter if they don't make a move.”

Kanp? said, “With Amu here, as long as they come to investigate, we can get Amu to follow the clues!”

Minato’s eyes lit up after hearing this.

While Danzo frowned: ‘Amu?’

‘Who is Amu?’

‘Is he good at sensing?’

‘Is there such a Shinobi in the village?’

“Let’s do it like that.” Minato smiled and agreed with Kanp?’s suggestion.

Hiruzen couldn't help but remind: “Yondaime, pay attention to Danzo’s safety.”

“I understand, Sandaime.” Minato nodded with a smile.

When leaving the cell, Minato said to the Anbu guarding outside: “Three days later, send a team to escort Danzo to Konoha Prison.”

“Yes!” The Anbu responded.

“Disclose this information at the same time.” Minato instructed again.

“Yes!”

As he listened to the voices gradually moving away from the cell, Danzo couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.

If Minato is really allowed to succeed, then it will be impossible for him to make a comeback in his life!

But what else can he do at this time?

Danzo’s tangled fist slammed towards the ground.
