In the light curtain image, the camera switched back to the Four Purple Flame Formation.
Shimura Danzo, who had been beaten all the time, looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was extremely ferocious, with determination and sadness in his eyes. He gritted his teeth, full of unwillingness and anger.
Moreover, the camera also slowed down at this moment, and the voice belonging to Shimura Danzo also sounded.
"again and again……"
"again and again……"
"Sarutobi, why? Why do I lose to you every time..."
"Obviously, I was the better one when I was a kid..."
The camera switches, and the memories belonging to Danzo Shimura appear, showing the circumstances of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura when they were children.
It can be seen that when Konoha was founded, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo were already together. The two little guys have been friends since childhood.
Then, when he entered the Konoha School that was first established, Hiruzen Sarutobi was like a little monkey making trouble in the school. He was very lively and could not see the calmness of the next three generations of Hokage at all.
On the contrary, Shimura Danzo was calmer and better in school when he was a child, and he belonged to other people's children.
In addition, in terms of appearance, Shimura Danzo defeated Hiruzen Sarutobi when he was a child. Hiruzen Sarutobi really looked like a little monkey when he was a child, but Danzo Shimura is undoubtedly the younger Shota in terms of appearance.
Thinking of this guy's appearance after he is over fifty years old, I can only lament that time is like a butcher's knife.
Then, the camera switched to the present again, continuing to show Shimura Danzo trying to resist, and then being beaten with a stick until he vomited blood.
The voice of his heart also sounded again.
"Since when did you become better and better than me?"
"The memory should be vague, but now I have remembered it."
"It was right after I graduated from the Ninja School and became Tobirama-sensei's student..."
The screen switched again, and Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, who had become sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys, appeared in the light screen image. Compared with the little monkeys he looked like when he was a child, Sarutobi Hiruzen at this time has become calm and energetic. Full.
As for Shimura Danzo, he still feels calm and calm, but he has a feeling that he is not much different from when he was a child, and his mentality has not grown much.
The screen shows the two of them fighting against enemy ninjas in the woods. Accompanied by a slightly heavy and sad BGM, Danzo Shimura looks at Hiruzen Sarutobi, while the latter kills the enemy bravely and moves forward indomitably, full of youthful emotions. Spirited.
During this period, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't have the indecisiveness that he had as he got older. Instead, he was just enterprising and full of vigor.
Time is a butcher's knife, and this really hasn't changed.
Then, under this situation, Shimura Danzo was attacked by the enemy. Sarutobi Hiruzen discovered it and immediately rushed back to rescue, and finally rescued Shimura Danzo.
However, Shimura Danzo also had a cross scar on his chin. Apparently Shimura Danzo's disfigurement occurred at this time.
Then, through Shimura Danzo's field of vision, it was clearly Sarutobi Hiruzen who was helping Shimura Danzo move forward, and the two of them moved forward side by side.
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi was bathed in the sun, while Danzo Shimura was already in the shadows, forming a shot with clear light and dark. ….
It seems to be a metaphor for the future destiny of the two of them.
The camera returned to the present again, Danzo Shimura roared angrily, and used Tree World Descending again, while Hiruzen Sarutobi also used his own skills to resist.
It is divided into four clones, each clone casts a ninjutsu of one attribute, and its main body also casts one.
In the end, a combination of five elements escape techniques was formed, and its name was——
"Five Escape - The Jutsu of Large Continuous Bullets!"
Boom boom boom~~~
A horrific explosion occurred, and Hiruzen Sarutobi relied on this combination of ninjutsu to withstand Danzo Shimura's arrival from the tree world.
Although Danzo Shimura's Arrival of the Tree World is just a youth version compared to the first Hokage's, it is still Arrival of the Tree World, and there is no doubt about the 'field magic'. In the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen actually resisted it.
This shows his great strength as Hokage.
When people around saw this shocking scene, many people were severely shocked.
Although there are several Kage-level masters in Konoha, there are even more who have seen Kage-level masters such as Namikaze Minato galloping on the battlefield.
However, Namikaze Minato's type is different from that of Sarutobi Hiruzen, especially the Five Release-Dalian Bullet Technique, which can actually withstand the legendary Wood Release. The shock of that ultimate move to Todoroki is indescribable. , definitely a once-in-a-lifetime scene.
After all, ninjas pursue more efficient killing of enemies, and there are more assassination traps and the like on the battlefield. Super ninjutsu battles like Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo are definitely rare to see. scene.
Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was resisting the arrival of the Tree World, Shimura Danzo's eyes widened, his expression ferocious, and his heartbeat continued to ring.
"Yes, I lost to you, Sarutobi."
"Not this time, but a long time ago, at that most critical moment..."
"The moment when Tobirama-sensei, as the Second Hokage, screened the Third Hokage..."
The camera switched again, and this time a group of young people and a man wearing blue armor in the style of the Warring States Period of the Ninja World appeared. He had silver hair, three red facial lines on his face, and red eyes, like an albino. young man.
The light screen image focuses on showing this man. His temperament is cold and calm, giving people the impression of being mysterious and powerful, and he has a decisive and calm mentality.
His name and identity were also revealed through light screen images.
The Second Hokage - Senju Tobirama.
————
In the real world, Tokyo, Senju Hashirama's eyes lit up. He pointed at the light screen image and said excitedly to his younger brother: "Tobirama, did you see it? It's you! You actually appeared, and the second Hokage is actually You."
Senju Tobirama: "..."
Uchiha Madara: "..."
other people:"……"
I want to speak but stop, I stop but I want to speak.
Senju Hashirama was stunned: "Ah? What's wrong? Aren't you surprised?"
Uchiha Madara turned his head to the side, unable to look directly at his best friend's innocence, while Senju Tobirama asked with a twitching face: "Brother, the light screen image has mentioned 'Tobirama' several times before, it's completely clear. , didn’t you expect that at all?”
Senju Hashirama scratched his head: "Well, I did think of it, but didn't you appear? I thought the Tobirama mentioned there was another person with the same name, such as Uchiha Tobirama or something like that."….
"After all, it is said in it that Konoha was created jointly by the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan. Since the first Hokage represents me, the Senju clan, then the second Hokage will ask people from the Uchiha clan to come and create a second Hokage Uchiha Hatima, isn’t this a very reasonable thing?”
Everyone: "..."
Logically speaking, this guess seems reasonable?
Everyone was twitching. They didn't know whether Senju Hashirama was as wise as a fool or as wise as a fool. Why could he always think of possibilities that no one else could think of at certain times?
Having said that, why didn't we think of this possibility?
After thinking about it carefully, it suddenly dawned on me, because 'Tobirama, ah.
When everyone heard the name Tobirama, there was a Senju Hashirama in front of them, so they naturally thought of Senju Tobirama. Who would come directly to Uchiha Tobirama like Senju Hashirama?
————
In the light screen image, Senju Tobirama spoke, and told the situation they were encountering in a simple, calm and somewhat indifferent voice. However, it was this group of people who went to the Kingdom of Thunder to conduct peace negotiations with the Raikage.
At this time, it was the end of the First Ninja World War. The peace negotiations had been completed and they were preparing to return. However, some extremists in the Kingdom of Thunder were dissatisfied with the peace negotiations and directly used rebellion methods.
Moreover, some special unknown methods were used during the rebellion, which caused the chakra in the group of people to be almost squeezed out.
The Raikage has been killed by the rebels, and Senju Tobirama and others have fled into the forest and are in extremely dangerous condition, with the enemy chasing them.
Therefore, someone will need to come to the rear and be responsible for holding back the rebels from the Kingdom of Thunder, so that others can have a chance to escape.
Senshou Tobirama asked directly who was willing to take on this life-threatening job.
He has an indifferent attitude, as if he treats everyone as a tool.
Under such circumstances, the light screen image was given to Shimura Danzo, showing that after hearing this, he subconsciously wanted to muster up the courage to express his attitude of taking on this death mission.
However, the instinctive fear made Shimura Danzo not stand up, but stood tense and stiff in place.
At this moment, Shimura Danzo was struggling. His heart kept shouting for him to step out, but his body was out of control, which is commonly known as fainting.
However, facing this kind of mission that requires death, how many people can do it without fear of death?
Anyway, Shimura Danzo is not such a person.
So, another person stepped forward.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, he stood up without hesitation and expressed his willingness to take on the task after the break. He looked resolute. Although he was very nervous, he did not hesitate at all, but only had the determination to dare to sacrifice.
At that moment, Danzo Shimura was stunned. He looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi blankly. He felt that Hiruzen Sarutobi was so dazzling and couldn't help but feel very ashamed.
At the same time, he also had an emotion that made him feel uncomfortable and nauseated - he actually felt lucky and breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was happy that he didn't have to die.
Then something surprising happened.
Senju Tobirama smiled at this moment, praised Sarutobi Hiruzen's courage, and then directly asked Sarutobi Hiruzen to lead the others to evacuate immediately, and said that from today on, Sarutobi Hiruzen will be the third generation Hokage of Konoha. . ….
Moreover, Senju Tobirama also used the tone of his elders to convey the spirit of sacrifice for future generations, and this is the will of fire.
Finally, Senju Tobirama said to Sarutobi Hiruzen with a solemn expression: "Konoha leaves it to you, Hiruzen."
The feeling of being fully prepared for the future came to my face, and I almost wrote 'I'm going to die' directly on my forehead.
This sudden reversal almost broke everyone's waist. Not only Sarutobi Hiruzen and others were confused, but people in the real world were also shocked.
After all, Senju Tobirama has a cold appearance, as if he is a ruthless leader, and it is very common for such a person to risk the lives of his subordinates to protect his own.
As a result, it turned out to be a test to ask someone to go to the queen's palace. Only those with courage are qualified to become Hokage, and he has to stay on his own to cut off the queen.
As the Hokage and the leader of a country's highest military organization, he actually has to take the lead and take the lead, and he still has to risk his life...
What should I say?
Indeed, this spirit of courage and sacrifice is admirable, and it has also made countless people in the real world feel good about it and praise it.
But in fact, from the perspective of many people who are rational and understand military politics, such a sacrifice is simply incomprehensible.
Because the values are completely unequal, and this kind of battlefield transfer is full of variables, if it is not done well, it may lead to the overthrow of the regime and constant internal turmoil.
It would have been excusable if he had to sacrifice, but Senju Tobirama's self-sacrifice was absolutely unnecessary. It was a decision that anyone who had studied politics or history would think was mentally ill.
For example, Senju Tobirama in the real world was unable to be fooled by the image of himself in the light screen.
Senju Tobirama couldn't help but cursed: "What kind of stupid idea is this? I don't even know what it means!"
Senju Hashirama scratched his head: "Well, Tobirama, don't you agree with what you did in the light screen image? I think this kind of behavior of using your own life to pave the way for future generations is very handsome."
Senju Tobirama shook his head: "Brother, the spirit of sacrifice you mentioned is indeed commendable. If I were a simple warrior or even a general, such behavior would indeed be commendable."
"However,
He is the Hokage, the Hokage who carries the lives and future of countless people. If he wants to wear his crown, he must bear its weight. As the Hokage, his life does not belong to himself, but to the entire Konoha and even the Land of Fire. "
"At times like this, as Hokage, you should protect your own life. Even if you have the spirit of sacrifice, you should use this spirit of sacrifice for the development and construction of Konoha, instead of inexplicably going to such a cut-off battlefield. die."
"You know, as the Hokage, if something goes wrong with him, then Konoha and the Country of Fire will inevitably usher in turmoil. History has taught us countless lessons that if a person who becomes a Lord cannot protect his own life, That will trigger a chain reaction of collapse.”
"Although he chose Sarutobi Hiruzen as his successor, this kind of battlefield succession is inherently unstable. What's more, there are only so many people around them, which makes the succession lack legal legitimacy!"
"Such a succession, if not done right, will trigger civil strife or even civil war in Konoha and even the entire Fire Nation. It is the stupidest way to pass the throne."….
"Also, who are these people following him? They are indeed his disciples, but they are also the Hokage Guards. The responsibility of the Guards is to sacrifice themselves to protect the Lord."
"In other words, even if it is cruel, even if all these people are killed, as long as he can return to Konoha alive, it is the greatest victory! It is also the approach with the least loss from a national strategic perspective!"
"What's more, he also said that only one person is responsible for being the bait for the end."
"In the end, there were so many good options, but he chose the worst one, and he looked very pleased."
"Who is this guy trying to impress? Is he trying to impress himself?"
At the end of the sentence, Qianju Tojian shook his head speechlessly, and was really speechless about what he did.
It's not that he didn't consider the relationship between himself and his disciples, he had considered it. However, as the Hokage, he was also burdened with the future of Konoha and the Country of Fire. How could he decide to go there in such a self-motivated way? Not going to die?
Perhaps this spirit of sacrifice seems surprising and touching, but in fact, as a leader of a country and a major force, it is the most irresponsible and stupid behavior.
Anyway, Senju Tobirama himself couldn't be moved by this, because once something goes wrong, not one or two people will die, but thousands, and even the country will be overthrown by a terrifying crisis - this is feudalism The shortcomings of social form, which are impossible under modern political power, were very likely to happen under the ancient feudal strongman political system.
The above thoughts are also what other rational people and people with a strong view of the overall situation think. They all think that the sacrifice of Senju Tobirama in the light screen image is unnecessary and inexplicable. It is just like the brains of some screenwriters in entertainment works. As soon as I filmed it, I felt like I had to forcibly upgrade the quality of a character and then forcibly sacrifice the plot.
It's really a plot about sacrifice for the sake of sacrifice, and it's so unreasonable that people can't help but want to complain.
It's not that Senju Tobirama cannot be sacrificed, but the situation in the light screen image is too inexplicable. Senju Tobirama is completely bent on death, without logic, as if all wisdom has been lost, and only self is left. Moved.
Normally, if a Hokage like Senju Tobirama was to die, he would definitely have encountered a strong enemy, had his escape route cut off, and then died in a fierce battle.
Or maybe it was an assassination due to some conspiracy, and although such a sacrifice did not seem so great, it was truly reasonable.
Of course, all kinds of complaints cannot affect the situation in the light screen image. When Senju Tobirama ignored the dissuasion of others and forced everyone to accept his order as Hokage, Shimura Danzo's memories also changed. It was over, and his voice sounded again.
"Yes, from that day on, I will always live in your shadow, Hiruzen."
"You are the Hokage, the light of Konoha."
"And I am the darkness of Konoha, the root of Konoha."
"It's as if... I'm destined to lose to you forever, Hiruzen..."
With these words, the camera switched again.
This time, it's Hiruzen Sarutobi
He has become Hokage, and he has been standing in the place of light, leading Konoha, and accepting the honor and glory that comes from the identity of Hokage. ….
As for Danzo Shimura, he would always stand in the shadow behind Hiruzen Sarutobi. At that time, he also admitted that he was not as good as Hiruzen Sarutobi, and decided to become a qualified Hokage assistant.
The root is established in this way. Its ideal is to become the darkness under the light of Hiruzen Sarutobi, the root under the leaves of Konoha, and help Hiruzen Sarutobi protect Konoha by walking at night in brocade clothes.
It can be seen that the two people at that time had a really good relationship and were true friends. In order to help Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo Shimura was willing to accept criticism and hide in the root of darkness until he could not see the light of day. Let others know your dedication to Konoha.
However, people change.
As he grew older, Shimura Danzo, who had been living in the darkness, was also corrupted by the darkness.
There are no words or conversations, but the light screen image constantly switches between scenes of aging, showing that Danzo Shimura is becoming more and more cold and gloomy, and the look in his eyes when looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen is no longer pure, and emotions called jealousy and longing appear. , and getting thicker and thicker.
Yes, Shimura Danzo has been in the darkness enough. He longs for light, longs for honor, and longs to be as dazzling as Sarutobi Hiruzen.
He longs to become Hokage.
Finally, this memory shot ended.
What appeared was a slow-motion picture of Danzo Shimura being hit by a stick in the chin and flying backwards with his face deformed.
Then, Shimura Danzo's heartbeat sounded again: "Yes... Even now, I still lose... Hiruzen..."
"Just like before, I seem to be destined to be inferior to you..."
"But……"
"I'm not willing to give in!"
"We've come this far!"
"You have obviously paid so much!"
"Obviously everything I did was for Konoha!"
"why why why?"
"Why is the result still the same?"
"No!"
"no way!"
"I will never accept such a result!
"
"At least, at least once!"
"Even if it's just once!"
"I want to really defeat you once!"
"Hiruzen!
! "
Strong emotions arose with the memories of killing, and they were stronger emotions than before, than ever before.
It was as if the emotions that had been brewing and hidden for decades exploded at this moment.
Shimura Danzo's twisted heart finally completely collapsed.
So, at the same time as it collapsed, Shimura Danzo's last inner defense was completely broken through and completely shattered into nothing.
Everything in Shimura Danzo's heart and soul was opened to the Shikon Jade fragment.
Decades of emotion, decades of darkness, and decades of unwillingness all exploded at this moment.
Therefore, the four soul jade fragments responded to this strong and rich emotion.
The camera switched to Naraku at this moment, and he saw that after the monster was stunned for a moment, the corner of the white-haired baboon's mouth curled into a pleasant smile.
"What a surprise...I thought that the first one to let the Shikon Tama fragment bloom would be Pain or Shukaku, but I didn't expect that it would be you - Danzo."
"You, the guy I least like, who is rotten from the inside out, can actually do this."…
"Sure enough, human emotions are something with endless potential."
"Then, let me see what kind of brilliance the four soul jade fragments that have fully bloomed because of you can finally burst out with!"
As Naraku said these words, the screen switched and came to the location of Shimura Danzo again.
At this moment, I heard a beating sound like a heartbeat.
Then, the scene entered Shimura
In Danzo's body, the fragment of the Shikon Jade that had always been emitting purple light changed at this moment.
Dark red material overflowed from the core of the purple Four Souls Jade, and spread and surged rapidly. In an instant, the purple energy was completely infected with an unknown dark red color.
Even through the light screen, people in the real world can feel the ominous atmosphere.
Especially the extraordinary ones feel this even more strongly.
And, the more powerful the person, the more so.
Arturia, Enichi Tsukikuni, Jeanne Arc, etc. were the first to awaken, and now the strongest group of people tensed up in an instant, showing serious expressions.
It's not good and evil, but the ultimate depth, the ultimate chaos.
It is as deep and lightless as an abyss, as if everything falls into it and will be infected and distorted by it.
At the same moment, the high-level mysteries had a stronger feeling, because they sensed the feeling that "the enemy and ourselves are of the same origin," as if the deep dark red had the same origin as their power and even their master.
After all, what was added to the Four Souls Jade?
There is no doubt that that is definitely not what the Four Souls Jade originally possessed!
It's something else, even another unknown will.
Now, that thing, that will, was awakened from it by Shimura Danzo's extremely pure emotion and his only and most intense prayer.
Maybe, it's just a small part of the will, but even if it's just a small part, it's terrifying to the extreme.
Almost in just an instant, Shimura Danzo's will and even his soul were infected by this deep dark red, and he was completely controlled by the unknown will.
In an instant, Shimura Danzo's body also suffered horrific distortions. .
fly again
