"Hiruzen, even if Danzo has done something wrong, judging him is the Hokage's job. Why is Hiruzen Sarutobi trying to kill him like this?"
Mito Kadoyan on the other side also spoke, offering a relatively reasonable suggestion.
But clearly, the person who benefits the most from this suggestion is still Danzo.
However.
This sentence did give Hiruzen Sarutobi a good reason to intervene.
Qifeng pursued and killed Danzo with his long sword. It must be said that although Danzo's strength is not that great, his ability to escape is quite good.
But that's all there is to it.
At this time, Danzo had lost an arm, and his body was covered in wounds. Obviously, it was difficult for him to escape Qifeng's next blow.
But just as his sand iron long sword, wrapped in lightning, was about to slash down on Danzo's head, a person suddenly appeared in front of him.
Hiruzen Sarutobi!
Qifeng frowned.
At this time, are you still trying to protect Danzo?
But the arrow is on the string, and it has to be fired. Qifeng now only wants to kill Danzo. The things that happen later can be discussed later. Anyone who stands in his way will be the same.
If Danzo doesn't die.
He can't breathe!
Whoosh—
Suddenly, his figure flashed, and the lightning turned into a fold, bypassing Hiruzen Sarutobi's obstruction.
Feeling Qifeng's speed increase again, Hiruzen Sarutobi was shocked and shouted subconsciously, "Stop!"
He thought that as long as he appeared in front of Qifeng, it would be enough to show his attitude. Even if Qifeng was angry, he should stop at this time, right?
Who knew that Qifeng wouldn't give him any face at all.
"Today, Danzo must die! It's the same for anyone who comes!" Qifeng shouted loudly, and the sand iron long sword in his hand shattered, and Danzo's retreat was completely blocked.
Clusters of sand iron had already surrounded Danzo firmly. Now, as long as Qifeng had a thought, he could crush Danzo to death.
"Hiruzen!"
But this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice was louder, so loud that Qifeng wanted to hear what he had to say.
Holding up his hand, opening his palm, turning his head, his expression indifferent.
Noticing the indifference in Qifeng's eyes, Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart trembled.
But many scenes of fighting side by side with Danzo and carrying Konoha together flashed through his mind.
Whenever he thought of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi would feel particularly soft-hearted towards Danzo.
This was already one of the few people in this world with whom he had good memories.
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath, "Hiruzen, I know you're very angry, but Danzo is the leader of the Root, an elder of Konoha. If he has done something wrong, he should be judged by Konoha, and then a verdict should be given based on his actions."
"That's right, Hiruzen Sarutobi, nominally, you are still Danzo's subordinate. Now that you dare to kill Danzo, will you dare to kill the Hokage in a few years?" Koharu Utatane echoed.
As soon as she said this, everyone present frowned.
Bang!
Suddenly, a ball of sand iron flew out from the side, turned into a fist, and slammed **** Koharu Utatane's face, directly sending her flying four or five meters.
"Noisy." Qifeng glanced at him coldly, "When you go to the battlefield to kill enemies, come and talk to me."
Then he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, "It just so happens that the high-level officials of Konoha, as well as you two Third and Fourth Hokages, are here. I want to hear how you will judge Danzo's actions?"
"By the way, a reminder, the person he wanted to kill, or has already killed, is not just me. I hope you all mention Senior Sakumo's matter."
"The matter of Hatake Sakumo has already been punished..." Mito Kadoyan on the other side subconsciously wanted to speak, but met Qifeng's eyes and wisely closed his mouth.
Qifeng's words did stump Hiruzen Sarutobi.
How to judge Danzo?
Danzo definitely can't die.
But it seems that not dying, based on the things he has committed, doesn't seem right.
"Hiruzen, we have indeed already..." Hiruzen Sarutobi could only choose to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial. Otherwise, Danzo should die just for killing Hatake Sakumo.
"Oh~~" Qifeng showed a look of realization.
"Danzo was punished, deprived of the power of the Root in his hands, how long was the confinement? A year? Or a month? What about now? The Root ninjas are still helping him kill me. Third Hokage, let me ask you a question." Qifeng said playfully.
"Can you command the Root ninjas?"
Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression froze.
Can he command them?
Command my ass!
If he could command them, the scene of Danzo using the Reaper Death Seal on Qifeng just now would not have happened.
Going back to the power in Danzo's hands, he couldn't shirk this point.
"So, what about this time? Deprive Danzo of the power of the Root again in name only? And then add a month of confinement? After all, he didn't kill me, so the crime can't be more serious than framing Senior Sakumo, right? That makes sense, um..."
Qifeng's words, not to mention Hiruzen Sarutobi, even the Konoha ninjas next to him, all focused their eyes on him.
Indeed.
If Danzo was really punished like this, then who in Konoha would dare to offend him in the future?
Killing him is just killing him.
They don't think their importance to Konoha is greater than Qifeng's.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed constantly. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Completely deprive Danzo of all power, life imprisonment, and abolish all his ninjutsu!"
This was already the biggest concession he could make.
"All, still don't have to die?" Qifeng's eyebrows raised.
