Chapter 363 Hiruzen Sarutobi, Devoured by Danzo

Yahiko growled.

With the white banner at the center, a gentle breeze spread out, enveloping a large area of ​​the battlefield.

All the players surrounded by the gentle breeze felt their steps light and brisk.

"Agility attribute increased by twenty points directly, what an overpowered ability!"

Staff Officer He observed himself and discovered an additional status effect that increased his agility attribute.

This kind of command ability

Ideal for the Navy.

However, some players did not benefit from the enhancement of the white banner.

For example, Akainu, with a gloomy expression, was directly bypassed by the breeze, without any buffs appearing.

He didn't trust Yahiko at all.

Nature cannot be strengthened by fate.

"Secret Technique of Qi Observation - Military!"

"Secret Technique of Qi Observation - Fire!"

"Secret Technique of Qi Observation - Exorcising Demons!"

"The Secret Art of Qi Observation: Exorcising Evil!"

……

As Yahiko continued to unleash his aura-gazing technique, even the elite players who were previously powerless were strengthened to the point where they could barely contend with the evil god.

Yahiko was pale and severely exhausted. He said in a low voice, "The energy I hastily gathered is still too impure, but I managed to release all the secret techniques. The rest is up to everyone!"

[Qi] requires the person observing the qi to be trusted and willingly become a partner or subordinate.

The higher the level of trust, the stronger the truster, and the more energy they gather.

The skill level of top players is beyond doubt.

but,

Yahiko was in a temporary command position, so his level of trust was naturally not very high.

However, being able to fully unleash all the Qi-gazing techniques is the most impressive achievement Yahiko has made since becoming a [Qi Gazer].

This is a goal achieved by the players working together as one.

Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions,

The abyssal halo above the evil god's head was completely crushed by the combined attack of several top players.

In a short time,

It is absolutely impossible for the evil god to reactivate the Abyss Aura and enter an invincible state.

"Yahiko..."

Jiraiya's gaze was complex as he looked at Yahiko, the strongest support player on the field.

His former disciple.

I misjudged...

He spent half his life believing in the Toad Sage's prophecies, searching for the legendary Child of Destiny, the one who could change the ninja world.

Initially, he thought that Minato Namikaze, who was as warm as the sun and had great talent, was the child of prophecy.

And indeed, things turned out just as he had predicted.

At a young age, he became the Yellow Flash, feared by his enemies, and served as the Fourth Hokage, shouldering the responsibility for the entire village.

However, the Nine-Tails' rampage led to Minato Namikaze's demise.

later,

He also felt that Nagato was the child of prophecy, possessing the unique gift of the legendary Sage of Six Paths' eyes, and had an immeasurable future, destined to change the ninja world.

However, based on the videos shown by game vendors, Nagato appears more like a destroyer than a guide to peace.

Until now,

Hearing Yahiko's passionate words, seeing the Dawn Organization founded by Yahiko, who returned from hell, and feeling Yahiko's will...

So that's how it is. My disciple, who has been able to change the ninja world all along, has actually been overlooked?

"To change the ninja world, what you need is not great strength, not outstanding combat talent, and not a pair of unparalleled eyes."

Jiraiya's gaze was unfocused, as if he saw a radiance emanating from Yahiko, and he murmured, "Is it the will to walk the right path, and to be firm enough?"

boom.

The evil god statue is tilted.

Its right leg was severed by the Navy Headquarters, causing it to lose its balance and kneel upright on the ground.

The other forces were not to be outdone, and launched their strongest offensives in a rush. The limbs of the evil god statues were constantly being smashed, and the evil god's body, which blotted out the sky, was broken apart village by village like a collapsing mountain range.

At this moment,

The evil god, already prostrate on the ground, raised its massive head, all its divine light converging into its mouth.

It was as if the first one to launch a Tailed Beast Ball was about to do so.

The extremely concentrated polluting energy converged into a pitch-black sphere, with excess polluting energy overflowing out like sewage.

It dripped onto the ground.

It instantly evaporated the earth, corroding out bottomless pits.

"Be careful, this is the evil god's last struggle!"

The top players all retreated.

They all felt their hair stand on end, and even the strongest among them, Mei Terumi, unconsciously swallowed.

Even she would die if hit by that level of polluted energy!

Click!

The black sphere formed from polluted energy cracked open, and a beam of light, like that of a malevolent god capable of destroying the world, shot out.

The direction is Konoha Village!

Everyone quickly dodged.

Fearing that at the final moment when they were about to kill the evil god, they would be killed by the evil god's beam of light,

Only the players from the Konoha clans stared wide-eyed at the evil beam of light shooting towards Konoha Village.

"Protect Konoha!"

Naruto Uzumaki roared.

His arms erupted with holy golden flames, burning away the black flame chains binding Sasuke. He stomped his feet on the ground and used the recoil to propel himself into the sky.

boom.

The greatsword, blazing with intense golden flames, was cleaved in mid-air, but upon contact with the beam of the evil god's light...

It was like encountering stagnant water, instantly extinguished.

The top-grade greatsword, infused with countless precious ores and baptized by various holy waters and holy light, shattered directly into pieces of iron.

Naruto was thrown back.

The arms were corroded by pollution, gradually transforming into a polluted life form.

Swish!

With lightning speed, Sasuke controlled his flying sword to sever both of Naruto's arms.

"How could Naruto, who wasn't even wearing his silver armor set, possibly withstand the corruption of the Abyss of Flesh and Blood?"

Fang Yi, who was watching the battlefield, shook his head repeatedly.

Unexpectedly, the players were quite capable. Although the price they paid was high, with tens of millions of families dying, they finally managed to kill the corrupting evil god.

of course,

Judging from the current situation, the Konoha clan is definitely doomed and will be reduced to ashes by the evil god's beam.

"No!"

Jiraiya released a series of black characters that continuously transformed into various types of toads.

But the moment it came into contact with the beam of the evil god, it was corrupted and turned into a mutated toad monster, which was then killed by the players.

Countless Konoha players are trying to stop the evil god's beam by various means.

But there was absolutely nothing they could do.

But then,

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been silent all along, suddenly rushed toward the edge of the evil god's head, his Onmyoji energy mobilized to its limit.

"Hiruzen, are you insane?!"

Top players are all avoiding it.

Watching the short, thin figure, like a skinny monkey, nimbly stepping on countless pebbles and broken mountains, it arrived at the edge of the evil god's head at an extremely fast speed.

The one speaking is Danzo's spirit.

His face was filled with anxiety. Having mutated into the [Shadow Death Tree Man], he could feel the increasing pressure.

The tree-man's branches began to wither and decay due to the polluted energy overflowing from the evil god's beam.

If this continues,

will die!

"An old man like you, does he really want to play the hero?"

Danzo's spirit continued to roar in anger, shouting, "No one cares! They all want you dead! The ninja clan, Asuma, Tsunade, and Jiraiya—those ninjas who tried to sideline you—they'll be overjoyed if you die! You stupid monkey!!!"

Normally,

I will absolutely not stop Hiruzen Sarutobi from committing such a suicidal act.

But now, his life is tied to the monkey's; if the monkey dies, he, as a shikigami, will also die.

"Looking back..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's cloudy eyes were tinged with blood from being too close to the beam of the evil god's light.

"Many of the things I did after becoming Hokage... were indeed, as you said, completely wrong."

All of this is to maintain the stability of the village.

But things often don't go as planned.

"Teacher, perhaps choosing me to be Hokage was a mistake..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed inwardly.

Strands of black and white energy emerged, adhering to his skin like armor.

Onmyoji symbolizes the two opposing energies of Yin and Yang.

To become an Onmyoji

It's because Hiruzen Sarutobi's life is like two contrasting colors: he had the ambition to fight against the four great nations and lived a brilliant life as a ninja hero, but he was also forced to compromise and constantly retreat.

He has sympathy and guilt towards the Fourth Hokage and Naruto Uzumaki, and also wants to control the Jinchuriki. His feigned weakness is not necessarily cold-blooded.

Uchiha clan, Hatake, Hyuga...

I've never been able to do things perfectly; I haven't been able to plan everything exactly as it should be.

Until now,

When he thinks about these things, he still doesn't have a very good way to deal with them; he feels more confused than anything else.

However, the one thing I'm not confused about is...

Amidst the panic and confusion of Danzo's spirit, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly muttered to himself, "As the Hokage, protecting the village should never be a matter of hesitation or retreat."

"No!!"

"Hiruzen, I haven't become Hokage yet!!! This shouldn't be happening!!"

Danzo's soul roared madly.

turn a deaf ear,

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained expressionless as the power of Yin and Yang transformed into chains that encircled the head of the evil god.

This move was originally intended as a control technique to bind the enemy and allow the shikigami to attack at will.

But when compared to an evil god, it seems so insignificant.

boom.

A black energy core shattered.

Hiruzen Sarutobi spat out a mouthful of blood and threw away the shattered Yin Qi core, causing the dark chain to instantly thicken.

boom.

Next comes the core of Yang energy.

The core power symbolizing the Onmyoji's abilities exploded, and even if he were resurrected, Hiruzen Sarutobi would completely lose this part of his abilities.

The two yin-yang chains shone brightly.

To everyone's astonishment, the head of the evil god was violently pulled into the ground. The beam of light that was supposed to destroy Konoha Village grazed the defensive barrier, destroying only part of the village before sinking into the ground.

Boom!

The beam of evil god that crashed into the ground exploded, spreading out like seawater.

It immediately devoured the nearest Hiruzen Sarutobi, leaving not even a trace.

The dying master of the Yinshi sect, Danzo's soul, timidly curled up into a ball.

Taking advantage of the moment when Hiruzen Sarutobi died,

It kept shaking, trying to escape the range of the evil god's beam explosion, but it was no match for the spreading polluted ocean.

"You damn monkey, do you really think I'd follow you to my death for nothing?"

Danzo's angry curses rang out in the last moment before he was swallowed by the pollution.

A moment later,

The ninja who had been healed by the [Shadow Death Tree Man] and brought back to Konoha suddenly vomited blood.

Because they were out of danger, no medical staff noticed.

A tree seed took root and sprouted inside him.

Finally, Danzo emerged from the mouth of the ninja who had been used as nourishment, like a snake shedding its skin.

He hurried toward the Shimura family's territory.

"Damn idiot, always courting death. But it's fine this way, as long as I get the resurrection coin, I can finally break free from your control!"

Danzo's soul flickered on and off, seemingly about to dissipate.

Shikigami that are not owned by Onmyoji will soon be recycled by the game system.

He pushed open the door of the Shimura family's house and, using the stealth ability of the Shadow Tree Spirit, entered the secret room of the current head of the family, Shimura Danno.

"Tianye, before I died, I entrusted you with this task: you must find a way to save up one resurrection coin and give it to me!"

Shimura Danno was taken aback; he hadn't expected his father to appear so suddenly.

Without hesitation, he took out the treasured resurrection coin and handed it to Shimura Danzo.

Danzo activated the Resurrection Coin.

After a flash of white light, Hiruzen Sarutobi's corrupted and torn body gradually appeared, but the Onmyoji energy within him had been completely lost.

He is now an aging Shadow-level master.

"Danzo...?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was still puzzled and hadn't come to his senses yet.

Having been stabbed through the heart by Shimura Danno, who had been prepared all along, he was revived but has now fallen into a near-death state.

"Monkey, I told you long ago, you're not fit to be Hokage. The Hokage position should belong to me!"

Danzo's soul had cold eyes.

He manipulated the Shadow Tree Spirit and directly inserted the [Shadow Tree Heart], the core of which stored the soul, into Hiruzen Sarutobi's chest, replacing the other's heart.

Soul devouring.

Having lost his Onmyoji abilities, Hiruzen Sarutobi was powerless to resist Danzo's soul-devouring attack. After struggling, he was completely devoured.

Danzo Shimura got up from the ground.

He took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag, looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi's face in the mirror, and laughed maniacally.

"Hiruzen, I am the Hokage!"
