Chapter 671: Sarutobi Sasuke: Exit!
Chapter 671: Sarutobi Sasuke: Exit!
"Who?"
In an instant, Sarutobi Sasuke transformed from an old man into a formidable and intimidating figure.
Stomp!
A white-haired figure, wearing the uniform of the Shadow Division and carrying a Shinobi Knife on his back, emerged.
"How is it you?"
Sarutobi Sasuke was completely caught off guard by the visitor.
The visitor was Kakashi.
Not far away, several prison guards lay unconscious on the ground.
In the past, the Uchiha clan was responsible for the prison, and there were rarely any issues. But the current Security Division... they seemed to understand everything, and there were indeed numerous mishaps.
Slowly removing his Shadow Division mask, Kakashi revealed his stunningly cold and beautiful face, but his eyes were icily cold.
"Third Hokage, it's time to settle the score!"
Kakashi drew a short sword from behind.
This was an extremely unique blade.
Because with it, his kind and gentle father had taken his own life.
This short sword was once owned by White Fang.
Kakashi had always resented his father.
However, after receiving the mission scroll from Douhei and learning that his father's suicide was entirely for his sake, this resentment shifted to the Hokage leadership.
"It's my fault, Kakashi!"
Sarutobi Sasuke spoke with a deep voice.
He had initially thought that the other party had only suffered a loss of reputation and missed the opportunity to become the next Hokage.
But he never expected the other party to choose 'suicide' as a response.
In the White Fang incident, although Sarutobi Sasuke did not take action, he could not claim innocence. If he had exerted his full strength, he could have stopped Danzou and cleared his father's name.
But even until White Fang's suicide, he had not done so.
Kakashi flung the short sword.
Thud! The short sword pierced the tea table, wobbling slightly, and its gleaming edge reflected Sarutobi Sasuke's face.
The meaning was clear.
Since you drove my father to take his own life; now, you must pay the same price.
An eye for an eye!
This was the only thought in Kakashi's mind.
If he had not known what the other party had done, he might have gradually forgiven them and let go of his grudge.
But in the past few days, Douhei had exposed all the other party's actions, making it clear to everyone how incompetent and hypocritical they were.
Due to his inability to bear the darkness of the Hokage, he could only let Danzou shoulder the blame.
This resulted in numerous tragedies.
White Fang was one of them.
And these were the other party's responsibilities, so he would never forgive them.
It was because of their incompetence and hypocrisy that his father had left him, and for this, they must pay the price.
"I'm sorry, Kakashi!"
Sarutobi Sasuke slowly drew the short sword from the table.
As he gripped the short sword, he felt as if he was seeing that reliable and gentle figure once again.
At this moment, two figures in the corner not far away were watching with great interest and even commenting.
"What a shame, no flashback or background music. Thumbs down!"
Douhei expressed some dissatisfaction.
Because at a time like this, a flashback with background music would have enhanced the experience.
In the future, it would not be impossible to produce a live-action 'Naruto' film series in the Ninja World. Whether it's the characters or the ninja techniques, all could be portrayed by real actors, and the box office would surely explode.
If ninjas were the protagonists, the Transformation Jutsu could be used to solve the actor issue, ensuring that the fighting and ninja techniques would be authentic without any added effects.
Fake Blockbuster: Massive investment, super-hot special effects, powerful martial arts choreography team!
True Blockbuster: No investment, all real filming, authentic fighting!
There are indeed movies in the Ninja World.
Just like in the original storyline, one of the protagonists in the theatrical version, Kazehana Yuki, is a movie actress, so there's no need to worry about the lack of movies or market in the Ninja World.
"Flashback? Mother's Love?"
Hyuga Tsukiyuki silently noted Douhei's joke, constantly observing her surroundings.
If not for her secretly helping just now, Kakashi might have been discovered by Asuma.
A few minutes later!
With the crisp sound of a blade piercing flesh, a generation of ninja prowess came to an end.
If it were a battle, although Kakashi had concealed much of his strength, it would not be certain that he could keep the other party at bay.
However, with Sarutobi Sasuke's suicide, there was naturally no need for a fight.
The former Third Hokage, who had redeemed himself by sacrificing his life to protect Konoha during the Konoha Collapse Plan, met his end in the Konoha Prison after his fall from grace.
The news was only discovered by the Security Division much later.
It has to be said that the Security Division was not on the same level as the Uchiha in any aspect when it came to information control.
If it were the Uchiha, aside from whether they could stop Kakashi's infiltration, they would have noticed the anomaly much sooner.
Soon, the news spread like wildfire.
With numerous factions within the Security Division and a large number of ordinary people involved, keeping it a secret was no easy task.
A few days ago, this would have been a nuclear-level bombshell.
After all, the assassination of their own Hokage demanded that the culprit be found and brought to justice.
But now?
It was just a disgraced former Hokage who had committed numerous misdeeds, and it wasn't impossible that someone had taken matters into their own hands, 'eliminating a threat for the people.'
Many felt that he got what he deserved.
Indeed!
Monkey King Enma's reputation was completely tarnished by the relentless spread of this news.
This was the scene that Tong Ping had wanted to see.
After committing so many foolish and malicious acts, he still wanted a dignified exit—an impossible wish.
Comparing it to the original storyline, one could see how pitiful Monkey King Enma's death was.
It was a true heart-wrenching end.
Not only did he die, but he perished amidst the curses of countless villagers.
The Second Hokage's greatest mistake in life was probably allowing the F4 to rise to power.
Even if a few pigs had taken their place in the administration, Konoha would have progressed further and not ended up like this.
They were subservient to outsiders and heavy-handed with their own people! Not only did they constantly dig their own graves, but even when they won, it was as good as losing, allowing their enemies to encroach further.
The Cloud Ninjas were now almost surpassing Konoha.
This administration's impact was entirely negative.
Hokage Tower.
"Bang!"
Jiraiya stood up from behind his desk.
"We must catch the murderer at all costs. My teacher can't die without justice!"
He didn't believe the 'suicide' conclusion.
Indeed, after the Shadow Division's investigation, they reported it as a suicide.
Several Shadow Division members present also felt stifled.
No matter how they investigated, they believed that the Third Hokage had committed suicide.
Although they couldn't find the murder weapon, they concluded that someone had provided the weapon and watched as the Third Hokage took his own life.
This person was crucial!
All Security Division members managing the prison were now under interrogation, even including those who had been knocked unconscious.
Ashama, the last person to see Monkey King Enma, was also a key subject of questioning.
It wasn't that they suspected him, but they hoped to gain some clues from his testimony.
Unfortunately, Ashama genuinely had no clues to offer.
Strictly speaking, there should have been some, but someone had interfered, leaving him completely in the dark.
Former Hokage Assassinated!
This explosive news spread like wildfire instantly.
Fortunately, Monkey King Enma was a former Hokage, not the current one, which mitigated the impact on the Ninja World.
For instance, the disappearance of the Third Kazekage directly triggered the Third Great Shinobi War.
This demonstrated the influence of a current Kage.
However, Monkey King Enma had set a new precedent.
He was the first former Hokage to be assassinated after being removed from office.
Other Kages had all died in battle or were assassinated while in office.
He was the only one assassinated after being removed from office, a truly humiliating end.
In response, Nara Shikaku suggested taking a page from the Sand Village's book—using war to divert attention! The target, naturally, was the Skyguard Tower.
At the same time, Nara Shikaku also learned of another piece of intelligence.
There was a crucial component to the Fire Extinguishing Plan.
After some hesitation, he decided to participate.
He didn't want to gamble, but the Nara Clan was too closely tied to the Monkey Clan and Konoha, leaving him with no choice.
However, this plan would require some time.
But in the Leaf Village that night, a famous scene was about to unfold.
Tong Ping had waited half the day for this live broadcast.
