And hearing Danzo's words, Tsunade's expression gradually changed!
'What did this old bastard an?'
'Was he saying he wanted to move against Kushina, to investigate her resurrection technique?!?'
"Hahahaha!"
Tsunade couldn't help but laugh.
She truly couldn't help it.
Not to ntion Kushina being the Fourth Hokage's widow and a Konoha's hero herself-
Even if Kushina were none of those things, she was still the princess of the Uzumaki Clan, and the Uzumaki Clan were traditional allies of Konoha, and also Tsunade's younger sister.
Kushina being resurrected, regardless of how it happened, was her own business, and a good thing at that.
At the very least, Naruto wouldn't be motherless now.
Tsunade had actually been quite worried about Naruto's situation.
What if Naruto grew up, his brain developed, realized how unreasonable his past treatnt had been, and started rebelling?
Regarding this, Tsunade felt quite conflicted.
On one hand, she sympathized with Naruto and believed any rebellion from him would be justified. She herself found it unacceptable.
But on the other hand, Tsunade was now the Fifth Hokage. Her position dictated her perspective. If Naruto truly rebelled, she would have to find a way to deal with it.
Moreover, Tsunade also had to figure out how to prevent such a situation!
However, Naruto had this issue, but Kushina didn't.
No longer the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki, she should have her own freedom.
Taking it a step further, the current Kushina hadn't hard Konoha's interests. On what grounds should Konoha move against Kushina?
Just because her resurrection had high research value?
But considering their identities, their relationships... even if such a technique was really needed, was it necessary to capture and dissect her for research?
Couldn't they talk properly? Couldn't they ask properly? There were so many approaches, like using emotional appeals or talking about the past… too many thods could be used.
And these were thods that wouldn't cause Kushina to beco resentful!
But right now, it seed the only option in Danzo's mind was to seize by force!
Looking at Danzo, his face gloomy, one eye bandaged, one arm bandaged, Tsunade sneered sarcastically: "Elder Danzo, have you been running your Root underground for so long that your brain has rotted?"
"What do I think? What do I think?!"
Tsunade glared at Danzo unhappily: "Kushina is my younger sister, raised by Grandma Mito herself! So what if she's resurrected now?"
"Kushina being able to resurrect is her own fortune. As her older sister, I'm happy for her!"
"As for the resurrection technique, the cycle of life and death is a major taboo for ordinary people. I think it's best not to touch it lightly!"
"As for you, Elder Danzo!" Tsunade's attitude towards Danzo suddenly beca unprecedentedly sharp!
Tsunade narrowed her eyes and said: "Originally, thinking you are a senior, I respected you and held back many words!"
"But now, I feel I must speak!"
"Elder Danzo, hand over your Root. With your current ntal state, you are no longer fit to lead a force belonging to Konoha!"
"You're too old, just like the old man. Your mind has gone bad!"
"I don't know if your past experiences make you see conspiracies everywhere, want to control everything!"
"But as the Hokage, I'm telling you, this is wrong. Trying to control everything will only be your downfall!"
"So, that's it, Elder Danzo!" Tsunade sounded sowhat weary: "After today, please prepare all Root's materials for to take over soon!"
"As the Fifth Hokage, I cannot allow a force on Konoha's soil that I cannot control!"
Tsunade's tone was indifferent, her attitude sharp, with the imposing aura of a Kage faintly emanating from her.
When she first returned to Konoha, she had actually wanted to deal with Danzo's Root.
But back then, she had just returned, many things were unfamiliar, and there was no opportunity.
But now, hearing Danzo's words, Tsunade felt it was ti!
At this mont, across from Tsunade, after hearing her words, Danzo's face was already exceptionally ugly!
"Fifth Hokage, everything I've done is for Konoha! You can't do this!"
"Root is also an indispensable force for protecting Konoha. If you do this, you will regret it!" Danzo's words were filled with emotion.
But the one thing he couldn't say was a refusal.
Because this was in public.
As an Elder, all his authority ca from the Hokage. Refusal was a major taboo.
Danzo himself knew his existence was disliked by the village's Ninja Clans. Given the chance, clans represented by the Hyuga would absolutely spare no effort to eliminate him!
This was also a case of, in a sense, fighting corruption requires evidence, but fighting terrorism only requires a list!
Therefore, how could Tsunade give Danzo another opportunity?
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!" Tsunade said calmly.
And hearing this familiar line, instantly, in Danzo's eye, Tsunade and that man overlapped!
For a mont, Danzo actually couldn't tell them apart!
