The Age of Heroic Spirits in the Eyes of the Reincarnated.

Chapter 254: Sorry, Hiruzen, I think I can still be saved!
"As a neutral country, let me say a few words."

Mifune, who possessed a Kage-level swordsmanship from the Land of Iron, spoke.

Upon hearing this, the rest of the crowd turned around to look.

"The leader of Akatsuki has now grasped the trend of the times! They took advantage of the mutual fear and suspicion hidden under the surface of peace among various countries, accumulated a large amount of funds, and greatly expanded their strength; for example, many S-rank rebels who rebelled from various villages were gathered by this organization. In addition, they also took the opportunity to capture the eight tailed beasts..."

At this point, Mifune paused.

The Raikage was impatient and immediately urged:
"what do you want to say in the end?"

"Lord Raikage, don't be impatient."

Mifune glanced at the Raikage, then looked back at everyone in the meeting:

"A blessing in disguise... The actions of the Akatsuki organization have brought the five Kage together, which is a very rare thing! Everyone, have you ever thought about forming an unprecedented coalition of the five major ninja villages during the time of dealing with Akatsuki?"

"Coalition forces?"

Ai and Ohnoki raised their eyebrows.

Adam and Deidara narrowed their eyes.

Gaara was thoughtful.

Danzo curled his lips and nodded in support:

“Great advice!

After all, these are extraordinary times, and it is best for everyone to work together! "

"Mifune, well done."

Guo Ying thought to himself:

This is a good momentum.

Mifune continued his efforts at the right time: "If you form a coalition, you can unify the command and dispatch. This will not only concentrate your strength to avoid being defeated one by one by the Akatsuki organization, but also appease the internal forces of each party to avoid a more chaotic situation. The current situation is that the more chaotic it is, the more beneficial it is to the Akatsuki organization."

This is indeed true.

Chaos represents time.

The longer time drags on, the greater the possibility that Akatsuki will control several tailed beasts, and the more difficult they will be to deal with later.

None of the parties here can face the Akatsuki organization composed of S-rank rebel ninjas and several tailed beasts alone.

To deal with one tailed beast, one must be prepared to sacrifice a large number of elite troops, let alone facing seven or eight tailed beasts at the same time.

"and then?"

"Who will take command of the coalition forces?"

Deidara and Adam spoke at the same time.

"If you five families decide on your own, there will only be endless arguments. Therefore, I hope you will respect the position of neutral countries! Among the five Kage, who is the most suitable?"

The five Kage, including Ōnoki, looked at Mifune with strange expressions: Respect your country of iron? You get to choose the commander of the coalition?

It is undeniable that the Iron Country is quite powerful and is one of the strongest countries after the five major ninja villages.

But you think you can control the five major ninja villages just based on this?

Mifune, have you been too proud lately?
"At present, only Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is still there, and the Nine-Tails is recognized as the strongest among the nine tailed beasts! Controlling the Nine-Tails and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is the key to victory.

and so…

How about giving the power of the Ninja Alliance to the Hokage?"

As soon as Mifune said this, several Kages showed doubts: Huh? Konoha and the Iron Country have joined forces?
Danzo, on the other hand, remained expressionless, but was actually very happy:

Shisui, your Kotoamatsukami is really useful!
The fool Mifune was being influenced and used by him using the Other God without even realizing it.

But Danzo didn't know that even if he didn't use Kotoamatsukami to influence Mifune, Mifune would still recommend Konoha, which had the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Danzo's move was obviously unnecessary, and he couldn't use Shisui's Kotoamatsukami again within two hours.

Adding unnecessary details without realizing it.

...

at the same time.

Konoha.

The mountain behind Hokage Rock.

The second medical building built by Tsunade.

The Fifth Hokage Tsunade Senju, who experienced the attack of Six Paths of Pain, was still in a coma with his body withered.

Outside the ward, many Anbu guarded the surrounding.

In the ward, Shizune and Haruno Sakura, as disciples, took care of their mentor on both sides.

"It would be great if Lady Tsunade could regain consciousness. She would definitely be able to help Sasuke."

In front of the bed, Haruno Sakura thought to herself.

The information has been reported back that Sasuke sneaked into the Land of Lightning, Yunlei Gorge, and captured the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee.

This makes the atmosphere between the two countries very delicate.

Killer Bee is the brother of the Fourth Raikage, the B in the AB combination; he is also the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and his status in the Hidden Cloud Village is very special. Sasuke attacked Killer Bee, and it is rumored that he defeated him and took him away to the Akatsuki organization. It goes without saying how bad this is.

Although Sasuke had long been defined as a traitor to Konoha, he did indeed leave Konoha.

The Hidden Cloud Village failed to ask Konoha for an explanation and threatened to kill Sasuke, which made Haruno Sakura very worried.

If Danzo was here and heard the girl's inner thoughts, he would probably laugh at Tsunade:

Look at the wonderful disciples you have.

You have almost exhausted your chakra for Konoha and have been in a coma ever since. You have become as thin as a skeleton. And your disciple is not caring about you as a teacher, but is hoping that you can wake up soon to help his little lover and troublemaker. Tsunade, what does she think of you?

Fortunately.

Danzo isn't here.

There's no mind reader here either.

"excuse me."

A voice suddenly came from outside the ward.

"Sai?"

Haruno Sakura looked up and her eyes met with the boy who entered.

The boy was none other than Sai, who replaced Sasuke in Team 7.

The original team of Team 7 was: instructor Kakashi, team members Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, and Haruno Sakura.

After Sasuke defected from Konoha to follow Orochimaru, there was no news for three years, and Sai was then arranged by Danzo to be inserted into Team 7. At the beginning, as a member of the Root, he came with a different purpose of getting close to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Naruto.

But later, he was moved by Naruto's sincerity. Even though he was a member of the Root, even though Danzo was still there, and even though he knew that there were some things he couldn't say, he still came to this ward without hesitation.

"Sakura, I need to say something."

The person I want to talk about is naturally Naruto.

When Naruto arrived in the Land of Iron, in order to protect Sasuke, he allowed the girl from the Hidden Cloud Village to beat him up, and also allowed the rest of the people from the Hidden Cloud Village to beat him up.

Those people were Qirabi's disciples and students, and they respected Qirabi for his humorous and approachable personality.

Sasuke captured Killer Bee and attempted to extract the Eight-Tails from his body, but once a Jinchūriki loses his tailed beast, he will die.

The three young men hated Sasuke very much because of this.

After knowing the relationship between Naruto and Sasuke, they were relatively tolerant and just hoped that Naruto would tell them where Sasuke was. But Naruto actually knelt down to plead for Sasuke, hoping to be forgiven, and kept his mouth shut about Sasuke's affairs, which immediately ignited the anger in the hearts of the boys and girls in the Hidden Cloud Village.

My own teacher will have his eight-tail taken away!

Will die!
You Uzumaki Naruto are so great, you are so noble, you just kneel down and kowtow a few times to apologize and then you can just let it go? Hiding Uchiha Sasuke's whereabouts is to protect him, right?

If you want to forgive and want them to let Sasuke go, then return Killer Bee teacher to them!

Then, a series of punches hit Naruto's flesh, and his face was bruised and swollen. Naruto did not try to dodge or resist during this period, and he was beaten up several times.

"Naruto, he..."

After learning what happened from Sai, Haruno Sakura was a little bit unbelievable. She didn't expect Naruto to go to such lengths for Sasuke.

"Yes, he got himself covered in bruises in order to protect Sasuke!"

Sai frowned.

The look he gave the girl in front of him was somewhat complicated:

"You can rest assured that he did not betray Sasuke. Moreover, in order not to make you worry, he asked me to keep it absolutely secret from you!" "Naruto..."

Haruno Sakura pursed her lips.

"He is now on his way to the Raikage to seek forgiveness for Sasuke..."

Sai continued to add.

Haruno Sakura didn't feel anything and just lowered her head. However, Shizune beside her stood up anxiously, unable to listen any more:

"Why is that boy Naruto so messy?"

Go to the Raikage and ask for forgiveness?
Naruto, you have a lot of face. As a hero of Konoha who defeated Pain and is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, anyone in Konoha would give you this face! But you are the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha, the hero of Konoha; not the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village, not the hero of the Hidden Cloud Village! Your face is not big enough to affect other big countries and villages!

Go find the Fourth Raikage?

Aren’t you just looking for a fight?
She had seen the Fourth Raikage's strength and speed when she met him while traveling with Lady Tsunade!
If this happens to you, it can be fatal!
"Aren't Kakashi and Captain Yamato following them? Why didn't they stop them?"

Shizune said angrily.

Sai's expression darkened and he shook his head:

“I don’t think it will work.

But Kakashi-sensei trusts Naruto very much...

Even if you know it won't work, be prepared to give Naruto a chance."

Jingyin held her forehead:
"That fool."

She was even more worried about the little brother.

She knew Naruto's character very well. Even if Lady Tsunade was there at the time, she probably wouldn't be able to persuade Naruto, and Naruto would still commit suicide according to his own wishes.

At this time, Sai looked at Haruno Sakura with a puzzled look on his face:

“Sakura, I was recently assigned to Kakashi’s class to replace Sasuke, so I don’t know much about your Kakashi class.

As someone who came from that department, I don’t really understand human emotions.

I don't know what agreement you have with Naruto...

But, at least I know that Naruto really likes you!"

When Sai said this, his face was more serious than ever!

The little movements of gritting teeth and frowning, as well as the resentment between the brows, are things that root members should not have.

But at this moment, Sai had these extra emotions.

I don't know when he started to envy Sasuke! He envied that guy for having such a friend who could go through life and death with him and be loyal to him! Therefore, he really didn't want anything to happen to Naruto! He rode the ink-painted flying eagle and rushed back from thousands of miles away, just to find someone who could persuade Naruto and stop him.

And that person can only be Haruno Sakura in front of him.

Naruto couldn't listen to anyone right now, except this woman.

On the opposite side, a line of tears rolled down from the corners of the girl's eyes.

At this moment, Haruno Sakura recalled Naruto's words in her mind, and the words of comfort and promise Naruto made to her when Sasuke defected:

"I know you're sad and in pain right now, Sakura. After all, you love Sasuke the most...

Sakura, I will definitely bring Sasuke back!
This is our lifelong agreement!"

During the battle at the Valley of the End, Naruto was rescued with wounds all over his body.

Lying on the hospital bed, he still assured her:

"Sakura, I will keep my promise and bring Sasuke back. I said this is a lifelong promise!"

Haruno Sakura recalled a lot.

Suddenly, tears streamed down my face.

At this time, her emotions were out of control. She clasped her hands in front of her, her body trembling slightly, and her inner self-blame made her speechless with shame.

"Naruto has always carried the promise he made to you, and is prepared to carry it for his entire life..."

Sai turned halfway around and said in a faint voice:

"I don't know what he promised you, but it felt exactly like the curse that was cast on me!"

Haruno Sakura looked up suddenly and opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

"Although it was Sasuke who caused Naruto pain, doesn't that include you?"

Sai's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing Sakura's heart.

These words are a soul-searching question.

...

Just like in the original timeline, Danzo's little plan was exposed by Ao, a jonin from the Hidden Mist Village.

Immediately afterwards, Sasuke caused a big disturbance at the Five Kage Summit, demonstrated the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, and fought against the Fourth Raikage and the Fifth Kazekage Gaara single-handedly.

However, this time, the selection of the Five Kage has changed. After being hit by the flames of Amaterasu, the Raikage was about to cut off his burning left arm:
"Wait a minute, Lord Raikage."

"What's wrong Mizukage?"

"Just let me handle this kind of fire."

As he spoke, he took out a scroll and then clasped his hands together:

"Fire-sealing seal."

The flame of Amaterasu was quickly absorbed by the sealing scroll.

"Can this still happen?"

Not far away, Sasuke, whose neck was almost broken by the Raikage, frowned.

Follow up.

Not surprisingly.

Sasuke chased Danzo relentlessly and had no interest in the people from other ninja villages.

It is for this reason that the other major ninja villages are happy to watch the show.

Before, Danzo used illusion to control Mifune, which was a thorn in everyone's heart. Watching Danzo being chased and fought by Sasuke all the way, there is no more exciting entertainment program than this.

The abilities of the Mangekyo, such as Amaterasu, Kagutsuchi-no-Mikoto, and Susanoo, appear one after another.

Izanagi with Kage-level wind escape and ten three-magatama pieces is also eye-opening.

In addition, the abilities of Jūgo, Suigetsu, and Karin appear one by one.

High in the sky, Deidara felt that Sasuke's Hawk Squad was outnumbered and wanted to help, but was stopped by the masked Obito.

Even with Ōnoki's Dust Release, he was helpless against the masked Obito.

Yamanaka Fuu had died in the battle, and Aburame Tone was also killed by Obito in the previous melee at the cost of an arm; the Raikage lineage received news that the trace of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee had been found, and he had left here first to look for him.

In other words, there was no one present who had strong hostility towards Sasuke.

Because of this, Danzo, who had lost his way and had few supporters, soon fell into a dead end and the situation was precarious.

"I never thought that I would be forced to this extent..."

Ten minutes later, Izanagi had used up all his three-magatama Sharingan! At the end of his rope, Danzo unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a chest covered in black runes:
"Huruzen, I never thought that I would have to meet you after only being the acting Hokage for a few days!"

He is so unwilling!
"Forget it, even if I have to die, I will take you, Uchiha Sasuke, and the others with me to be buried with me!
Where the leaves dance, the fire lives...

Hiruzen, here I come!"

The Four Symbols Seal…

"Don't worry!"

A figure appeared out of nowhere and stopped Shimura Danzo's suicide secret technique.

Fortunately, I finally caught up.

He hurried so fast that he almost missed the old guy.

"You are?!"

Seeing that extremely familiar face and feeling the huge amount of chakra filled with vitality pouring into his body, Danzo's resolute heart trembled violently!

The determination to die just now is gone!

Sorry, Hiruzen, I think I can still be saved!
