58 Chapter 60: The elders goe to jail! Sarutobi Hiruzen defected!
Sarutobi Hiruzen and the elders looked at the menacing crowd, only to feel their minds feeling clouded. A strange sense of delusion bred within their hearts. What was going on? A few days ago, weren't they still the Hokage and advisory elders of the village who could do whatever they wanted?
Why did it suddenly become like this? The three of them reminisced about the events of the past few days in a daze, but found that their situation during the past few days was continuously getting worse.
On the first night, the head Shinobi from the Kumogakure mission kidnapped Hyūga Hinata and committed suicide before he could be captured. At that time, they thought it would be a good idea to persuade Hyuga Nàiluò to contribute to the village in the name of the will of fire.
But in the end, it was Nàiluò who turned the situation around and caused them to be unable to retort against his logic. The next day, they thought that they could kill Nàiluò in the dark, and with his death all aspects could be explained. However, the attack failed and resulted in the killing of the three root Jōnin.
Not only that, but these deeds had spread all over the village, causing the villagers to become excited and they had wanted to start a war against Kumogakure! On the third day, the attack was led by Sarutobi Shinnosuke, Anbu Shinobi and their four clans who had assembled a team of hundreds to attack Hyuga Nàiluò.
It failed again, not even a single person survived. Even Hiruzen went crazy after his son's death, which was seen by the major patriarchs. On the fourth day, they tried to support the Hyūga clan elder's son in becoming the Hyuga patriarch, and then let the Hyuga clan use their Caged Bird Seal to execute Nàiluò.
As a result, this failure was even worse. The elder of the main family and his son were executed on the spot, and Hiruzen was driven out of the Hyuga clan in an awkward manner. On the fifth day, none of the three of them could think of anything, and nothing happened.
On the sixth day, Danzo acted alone, taking the rest of his root Shinobi for one last attack, but it also resulted in failure. Hiruzen was ecstatic when he arrived, thinking that he could execute Nàiluò in the name of attacking an advisor elder.
However, it turned out that, at the suggestion of Nàiluò, all the patriarchs spoke up and demanded for the execution of Danzo on the spot. At that time, Hiruzen felt that these patriarchs no longer recognized him as the Hokage.
However, just when they were worried about how to deal with the situation concerning their war with Kumogakure. Nàiluò's final attack arrived: He wanted to dispose of all three of them, throwing the three of them in prison.
"Kumogakure….." Hiruzen suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "I Can not!'
"I will resign after the war."
"Now that our enemy Kumogakure has invaded the land of fire border, without me as the Hokage, who will organize and command the village in the war against them?" Hiruzen gasped.
It was like a drowning man who had suddenly seen his last life line, a rope. Even though the rope was full of thorns, he couldn't wait to grab it.
"Oh?" Nàiluò asked with interest: "Is our Third Hokage finally ready to go to the battlefield?"
Hiruzen's expression stagnated. Why should he be on the battlefield? Shouldn't he be in charge of commanding and dispatching the Shinobi of the village? Suddenly, Hiruzen's brain froze, and he immediately said: "This old man will lead the team personally"
"Needless to say, Sarutobi Hiruzen. We have all seen your hesitation." Nàiluò interrupted before Hiruzen could try and weasel his way out.
The patriarchs also looked at Hiruzen coldly.
At this time, he still subconsciously hesitated.
They no longer have any hope for Hiruzen.
"I Hyuga Nàiluò, am willing to lead our troops to defeat Kumogakure." Nàiluò said lightly.
"It happened because of my Hyuga clan, and Hyuga will naturally be responsible." Hiashi said.
The beginning of the matter was because the head of the Cloud Shinobi mission wanted to kidnap his daughter.
"The Aburame clan is willing to take Nàiluò-sama as the commander and fight together." Aburame Shibi said without hesitation.
"The Nara Clan…."
"The Yamanaka Clan…."
The patriarchs thought of Nàiluò's record from the past few days, and responded. The tragic death of the colossal Dream Tapir is still vivid within their minds.
Nàiluò was not surprised by this, and said:
"Sarutobi Hiruzen, do you have anything else to say? If not, Anbu you may detain them."
"Anbu?!" Hiruzen was suddenly invigorated. The Anbu are directly under the Hokage! How could they betray him!
However, Hiruzen soon discovered that the Anbu present, except for Asuma, who had just entered Anbu, turned their gaze towards Kakashi. Of the four teams in Anbu, two teams that were completely controlled by the Sarutobi clan have almost been completely wiped out.
Of the two remaining teams, the team leaders were Kakashi, and Asuma who he had just appointed recently and quickly promoted to team leader. Not to mention the Anbu present were not stupid!
They knew very well: the Third Hokage had already lost his power. Whereas Kakashi is not only the son of the late Anbu Commander Hatake Sakumo, but he has also been a genius since he was a child.
In the current Anbu, Kakashi is also the strongest. Therefore, they subconsciously handed over the decision-making power to Kakashi, who currently holds the highest position within the Anbu.
Kakashi also subconsciously hesitated. He did not hesitate to catch Sarutobi Hiruzen or not. But he didn't want to understand why he decided. But soon, Kakashi reacted, his face turned cold and he said:
"Let's do it, detain the Third, no Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two elders, and put them within Konoha Prison for the time being."
"YOU…. " Hiruzen looked at Anbu coming towards him.
They are going to be caught by Anbu and be imprisoned within Konoha Prison? What's wrong with this world?!
"I'm the Hokage, you can't do this to me!"
"Lord Third, stop, you have made too many mistakes." The elder Anbu said.
"I'm not wrong! It's all his fault! It's all the fault of the bastard Hyuga Nàiluò!" Hiruzen roared furiously, rushing towards Hyuga Nàiluò with an angry roar.
Ah! Nàiluò chuckled disdainfully, and knocked back Sarutobi Hiruzen with a punch and he flew back.
"Puff! How could it be possible!" Hiruzen was incredulous. Even if his strength had begun to decline as he grew older, he couldn't have been blown away just like that, right?
"Sarutobi Hiruzen, accept your fate, and wait until your affairs are investigated, and then we will decide whether to execute or imprison you for life." Nàiluò irritated mercilessly.
Put to death?! These two words suddenly appeared within Hiruzen's mind! How Could he be executed?! He is the Hokage! However, none of the patriarchs present wanted to intercede for him.
Looking at the indifferent expressions of everyone, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally understood: They really want him to die by himself....
"NO!" Hiruzen yelled! He can't die! Hiruzen, whose eyes were red and full of hatred and anger, rushed towards Nàiluò again with a furious roar!
However, He suddenly changed his direction halfway and jumped out of the window of the Hokage's office! Hiruzen knew that he was probably not Nàiluò's opponent. What's more, his enemy was not only Nàiluò alone.
Almost everyone present wanted him to die!
Escape, he must escape!
"Heh~" Nàiluò gave a chuckle, and reached out to face Hiruzen who had already jumped out the window: "Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!"
puff! On the run, Hiruzen immediately vomited blood and fell to the ground. However! Hiruzen's finger, which was covered in his blood, touched the ground.
"Summoning Jutsu! Monkey King: Enma!"
Enma appeared with a bang, his face was very ugly, but he didn't speak, and immediately turned into his Adamantine Staff. Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed one end of the staff onto the ground, and grabbed it around his body!
A moment later the staff began to extend continuously!
" Nàiluò, wait for me! You must not die! You must not die!" Hiruzen clutched the ever-extending staff and roared hysterically.
Soon, his figure disappeared from the sight of everyone.
"This…...Has the Hokage defected?" A group of people looked at each other.
Following the impeachment of Hokage, a pioneering work in the ninja world, today there was a big anecdote in the ninja world:
A Hokage has defected from their village! Nàiluò chuckled lightly at the corner of his mouth, not paying attention. Escape, run as far as you can. It would be too easy for Hiruzen to die. He has not yet to be ushered into true despair.
But, The escape of Hiruzen also brought hope to Homura and Koharu! The two looked at each other and ran towards the window, trying to jump through the window and escape just like Sarutobi Hiruzen! It's better for them to betray Konoha! At least it would be better than going to Konoha Prison or even being executed!
"Just because you two want to escape?"
The figure of Nàiluò suddenly appeared behind the two of them like a ghost, grabbed onto their hair, and slammed their heads onto the Hokage's desk.
Puff! Under the huge force, the surface of the table cracked directly!
"Anbu, lock them up first."
Now the two of them can't die yet. Hiruzen had seen his son's body burned with his own eyes and he had also witnessed Danzo's death yesterday. So these two, he couldn't miss it? Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, who were pressed on the table without dignity, were covered in blood. They looked at the Anbu who were coming towards them, with desperation in their hearts.
