Rebuild the Land of Whirlpools, start with a massive army of the Thirteen Guardian Soldiers.

It's time to bring this magnificent stage play to a close.

And let's call this stage play "The Strongest Hokage's Serene Death".

His name, Hiruzen Sarutobi, will forever remain on this stage of humanity, forever remembered!

Battles can change in an instant.

Seeing that the Five Elements Great Combo Technique had no effect, Hiruzen Sarutobi's shadow clones, being in sync with his main body, did not hesitate to swarm Ulquiorra.

Ulquiorra remained expressionless as he swung his green light gun!

The afterimages left by the streak of green light!

The speed was so fast that Hiruzen Sarutobi's shadow clones didn't even have time to react before being instantly torn apart!

Bang! Bang!

They turned into wisps of white smoke and disappeared!

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned as the pain experienced by his shadow clone was transmitted back to his mind.

Before he could even catch his breath from the sudden pain, Ulquiorra used Spin to appear right in front of him!

The green light gun slashed down mercilessly from above!

Extreme speed carries with it a chilling airflow!

Before the green light spear even touched him, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a powerful, tearing gust of wind coming from above his head!

The speed was so fast that none of the ninjas watching the battle could react in time!

They didn't even realize that the Third Hokage had already fallen into a disadvantageous position!

Only Mito Uzumaki, empowered by the Nine-Tailed Fox, managed to capture the movements between Urquizora and Hiruzen Sarutobi thanks to her excellent dynamic vision.

Mito Uzumaki thought to herself, "This is bad!"

His expression turned serious; Ulquiorra's attack was too fast and too sudden!

This caused Hiruzen Sarutobi to be unable to react at all!

If Hiruzen Sarutobi had taken this hit, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed!

This is not good news for the Allied Shinobi Forces!

This is especially bad news for Konoha!

After the war with the Land of Whirlpools, Konoha no longer has any capable people left.

Even after Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped down as the Third Hokage, there was no better candidate for the Fourth Hokage for a while.

They can only rely on Hiruzen Sarutobi to keep things going.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi were to perish in this war, Konoha's strength would plummet once again.

Moreover, Hiruzen Sarutobi was Tobirama's disciple and the Third Hokage personally chosen by Tobirama.

Even though Hiruzen Sarutobi did many things that wronged the Senju and Uzumaki clans.

He is now the Hokage of Konoha!

Mito Uzumaki could not stand by and watch Hiruzen Sarutobi die like this.

Just as she could no longer bear it and was about to make a move.

But then he suddenly noticed that Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was unusually calm.

Even when facing that green light gun directly, there was no emotion in his eyes.

There was even a barely perceptible smile playing at the corners of his lips!

Little monkey...

What do you want to do?

Mito Uzumaki instinctively stopped her rescue efforts and stared blankly at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

She was afraid that her actions might affect some of Hiruzen Sarutobi's plans.

We had to stop for the time being.

at this time!

Three shadow clones of Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly appeared on the ground beneath Ulquiorra's feet!

Earth escape: the art of beheading in the heart!

The name flashed through Mito Uzumaki's mind subconsciously.

Generally speaking, the Mind Decapitation Technique is a ninjutsu in which the user sneaks underground and pulls the enemy to the ground.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi truly deserves the title of Professor of Ninja; he can combine the decapitation technique in his mind with the Shadow Clone Technique!

He can even use three shadow clones simultaneously to perform the decapitation technique in his mind!

This alone is enough to prove that his title of Ninja Doctor is well-deserved!

However, although Hiruzen Sarutobi's plan was very successful, he underestimated Ulquiorra's strength!

Even though he had been extremely cautious and used three shadow clones, he still couldn't pull Ulquiorra down into the ground!

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly adjusted his tactics.

Two shadow clones grabbed Ulquiorra's legs, and another Ulquiorra from another family grabbed his arm.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had taken a direct hit from Ulquiorra's green beam spear, suddenly turned into a pile of mud.

It was the earth clone that had been prepared long ago to lure Ulquiorra!

However, his true form had already quietly moved away from Ulquiorra's vicinity.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes were deep. He took a deep breath and began to form hand seals without hesitation!

This stamp!

Mito Uzumaki let out a soft sigh in her heart.

A hint of surprise appeared in his usually indifferent eyes, as if he hadn't expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to use this forbidden technique!

The corpse demon sealed the entire search ￠∷ search ☆±�qun: leek; another ♀ private, ba” four ∵♀ 2＆9◎〃0⊙5!

As a member of the Uzumaki clan, she was naturally aware of the effects of this forbidden technique.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi was filled with disbelief!

This forbidden technique is indeed very powerful!

It can summon the Grim Reaper to seal the enemy's soul!

Since Ulquiorra's physical body is so powerful, let's abandon attacking his physical body and start from another direction, and attack his soul instead!

Hiruzen Sarutobi's idea is very ingenious.

The Corpse Demon Seal might actually be able to defeat Ulziora!

But the price of this tree is the soul of the one who cast the spell.

Once the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique is used, Hiruzen Sarutobi will undoubtedly die!

When did this little monkey develop such awareness?!

While feeling surprised, Mito Uzumaki also felt a sense of relief.

After all these years, the little monkey has finally shown some responsibility as the Hokage of Konoha!

This can be considered as leaving some dignity for Tobirama's original choice.

However, she hesitated at this moment.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi uses the Reaper Death Seal, she will surely die if she doesn't stop him!

Konoha will lose its Hokage again.

But it's clear that Hiruzen Sarutobi also considered the consequences of using this technique.

That proves he has thought everything through.

If she were to stop it now, wouldn't that mean...?

"He's finally starting to look like a ninja hero, so let him be. It's the last bit of dignity we can give the Hokage of Konoha 々々."

The Nine-Tails' voice echoed in Mito Uzumaki's mind.

Kurama (the Nine-Tails) looked down on Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage.

The First Hokage of Konoha was so powerful that he even hung him up and beat him!

This directly elevates the status of the Hokage position in his mind to an infinite degree!

Therefore, in comparison, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) looks down on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

However, at this critical moment, the fact that it was able to make such a decision made it look at Hiruzen Sarutobi with new respect.

Yes, there are some, but not many.

Mito Uzumaki sighed silently and chose to respect Hiruzen Sarutobi's decision as the Hokage of Konoha.

9. "Little monkey, let the glory of the Konoha Hokage be displayed in the ninja world once again!"
