Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History.

In a critical moment, Nagato activated the power of the Rinnegan, summoning the Gedo Mazo to defeat Danzo, but also revealing the secret of the Rinnegan.

Thus, the current situation has become one where Danzo, in alliance with Hanzo, attempts to destroy the Akatsuki organization while he himself seeks to seize the Rinnegan.

Of course, Danzo would not confess.

He retorted angrily:

"What nonsense are you spouting! I have only one goal, and that is to uphold justice!"

"The Akatsuki organization has acted perversely, attacking its own ninjas despite being citizens of the Land of Rain, with the intention of expanding its organization and overthrowing the government of Amegakure."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Yahiko, who was standing behind Minato, stepped forward angrily, pointing at Danzo:

"You're talking nonsense! We have never attacked any ninja from the Land of Rain!"

"Lord Hokage, he is deceiving you!"

Yahiko was very anxious, fearing that Minato Namikaze would be misled by Danzo's one-sided story.

At this moment, their only hope rested on the unexpected arrival of the Fourth Hokage.

Minato Namikaze turned his head to the side and smiled gently:

"Don't worry, my two junior brothers, I will definitely get justice for you."

"Junior brother...?" Minato's address made Yahiko and Nagato pause slightly.

"Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, was also my teacher."

Upon hearing Minato's explanation, Yahiko suddenly understood.

"Ah... so you're the outstanding senior the teacher was talking about."

"The teacher often mentions you. He says that any genius would pale in comparison to his senior."

"I never imagined that my senior brother would be the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village. He's amazing!" Yahiko said, giving a thumbs up.

Now, a huge weight was lifted from his shoulders.

Anyone associated with Jiraiya is definitely not wrong.

Chapter 8: Rescuing the Akatsuki and Killing Danzo

After calming Yahiko and Nagato down, Minato turned his gaze to Danzo on the hilltop.

"Elder Danzo, I have confirmed that this is a misunderstanding."

"Alright, you take your men back to the village first. I'll handle things here."

Minato spoke casually, but his words made Danzo's face darken like the clouds before a storm.

Leave? He was only one step away from the legendary Rinnegan, how could he be willing to give up now?

"Minato Namikaze, are you saying that the lives of the Rain Country ninjas were lost in vain just because of a few words from you?"

Danzo still clung to the fabricated charge and remained fixated on the Akatsuki organization.

Seeing that Danzo was still clinging to this unfounded claim,

Minato Namikaze's expression immediately turned cold, showing no mercy and not even addressing him as "elder," but calling him by his name directly.

"Shimura Danzo, I don't want to waste words. You know best how Amegakure died."

"Now, as Hokage, I order you to immediately take your men back to Konoha."

This was tantamount to tearing apart the surface of peace, and Danzo's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

He glared angrily at Hanzo beside him:

"You so-called demigod, others are causing trouble at your doorstep, and you don't even dare to say a word?"

He wanted to win over Hanzo so they could launch a joint attack on the Akatsuki.

Just as Hanzo was about to speak, Minato's voice rang out softly again:

"Lord Hanzo, this is an internal matter of Konoha. It would be best if you did not interfere."

These words carry a strong warning: it's okay to stand by and watch, but if you take action, you'll pay the price.

After careful consideration, Hanzo decided to protect himself.

"I also believe this is a misunderstanding. Well then, I'll take my leave now. You can handle the rest yourselves."

Having said that, Hanzo resolutely led his men away without the slightest hesitation.

Danzo was incredulous. Was this still the demigod who had once dominated the ninja world? He had actually backed down because of a junior?

Upon hearing Danzo's voice, Hanzo merely let out a cold snort.

Just kidding. I originally thought Akatsuki was a small organization with no powerful figures, and that I could probably take it on.

But they had the Fourth Hokage backing them up, so what was the point of fighting?

Just for the lives of a few so-called Rain Ninja?

Just kidding, don't take it seriously, bro.

With Hanzo gone, Danzo was left to face Minato Namikaze alone.

However, he clearly overestimated his own strength and underestimated Minato.

"Don't try to intimidate me with the title of Hokage. You're just a junior who climbed to the Hokage throne based on a few achievements."

"Today I will punish the wicked and eliminate the Akatsuki!" Danzo declared.

Minato lowered his eyes slightly and uttered only one word: "Oh?"

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp kunai was already silently pressed against Danzo's throat, ready to pave a bloody path for him at any moment.

"What?!" Danzo was dumbfounded.

He was on guard the whole time, how could this be...? Doesn't the Flying Thunder God Technique require a prior mark to teleport?

He was clearly on guard against this move!

"Lord Danzo!" the attendant exclaimed.

The Root members around them were all astonished; they hadn't noticed Minato Namikaze's silent approach at all.

After being jolted awake, everyone drew their swords and pressed closer to Minato, their eyes filled with ruthlessness, showing no regard for the Hokage.

"Don't move!" Danzo shouted, stopping his men.

Damn these idiots, are they trying to kill me by coming here at this time?!

"When exactly did you arrive...?"

Danzo gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on Minato, his words filled with disbelief.

But Minato Namikaze clearly had no intention of explaining, his face as cold as ice:

"Shimura Danzo, you have openly defied the Hokage's orders. I have the right to kill you on the spot."

"I'm giving you one last chance. Leave now, or you'll face the consequences."

Feeling the chilling killing intent emanating from his neck, Danzo broke out in a cold sweat.

Since Minato Namikaze became Hokage, he had always been all smiles, and Danzo had never seen such a terrifying killing intent emerge from him.

Nevertheless, Danzo still harbored a sliver of hope, believing that Minato wouldn't dare to harm him.

"I am an elder of Konoha. I don't believe you would dare to kill me."

Danzo's face turned ashen, but he remained stubborn to the end.

Minato Namikaze chuckled and responded to Danzo's doubts with his actions.

The sharp kunai went straight for Danzo's throat.

Danzo's pupils contracted sharply, and he dodged away in a flash.

Danzo clutched his bleeding throat, his eyes wide with disbelief.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, the kunai would have pierced his throat.

He really dares to make a move!

"Lord Danzo!"

All Root members immediately surrounded Danzo, their weapons all aimed at Minato Namikaze.

As long as Danzo gives the order, they will not hesitate to attack this nominal leader.

However, Danzo stopped them.

This wasn't out of a change of heart, but because he knew that even if they all went out together, they would be no match for Minato Namikaze.

This is the true power of the Yellow Flash!

Danzo glared fiercely at Minato Namikaze, his eyes filled with barely concealed resentment.

Because of this person, he had to give up the Rinnegan that was about to be obtained.

Danzo led the Root group away, and Minato Namikaze only glanced at them briefly without interfering further.

He withdrew his kunai and turned to help the purple-haired girl up.

"are you OK?"

Minato Namikaze's signature smile reappeared on his face.

"No...it's nothing, thank you, Hokage-sama."

Xiao Nan was somewhat flattered. The person in front of her was the Shadow of a nation, high above everyone else, yet he treated her so kindly.

"Xonan, Xiaonan!"

An excited Yahiko pulled the hurried Nagato along as they rushed over.

I thought I was going to die today, but I didn't expect my senior brother, the Hokage, to appear unexpectedly.

So powerful it's terrifying!

Just standing there terrified Hanzo, who was known as a demigod.

"Thank you, Minato-senpai," Yahiko said again.
