Do you think these old guys are protecting Konoha just by talking?

Where do you keep those Konoha heroes?

Will of Fire?

Pooh!

Today, I will let you see my true identity!"

Toneri glanced at his mouth, and spit out a mouthful of saliva mixed with some blood.

He first fought against the Third Raikage, Ai and Kirabi. He was seriously injured because he was ambushed. He rushed back with anger in his heart, and his injuries had not fully recovered.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned red and white after being told by Toneri.

In fact, he was not as miserable as Shiren said. At least when he was young, he managed Konoha well.

Only in his later years, when he lacked energy and began to delegate power little by little, did he become what he is now.

He said with a hint of bitterness: "So, am I so miserable in your eyes?"

Toneri waved his right hand gently, "It's just that you in your later years have made me a little intolerable.

But it won’t have much to do with me in the future. Since you can’t make a decision, let me help you.”

Click

In this silent environment, a very clear sound of bone breaking could be heard.

"ah!!!"

Danzo was thrown to the ground by Toneri and kicked him on the knee, causing the entire leg to turn completely at a ninety-degree angle.

"Stop!" Hiruzen Sarutobi shouted loudly. Just as he was about to move forward, he found Toneri holding a silver-colored round dance blade pointing at him from a distance. Although he didn't look at him, he could clearly feel it.

Shiren's attention was entirely on him.

Swish

Taking advantage of Sarutobi Hiruzen's hesitation, Toneri's round dance sword rose and fell.

One of Danzo's arms fell directly to the ground, and the pain caused him to break out in cold sweat. A large amount of blood spurted out from his arm. Both of his eyes were raised, and he was about to faint. His entire face

His face was pale, without any blood.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really 'comfortable', Danzo-sama."

Seeing Danzo being tortured like this, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally couldn't bear it any longer.

Seeing that he was about to explode, Shiren frowned slightly, and then showed a helpless expression, "I'm taking advantage of you, but this is not enough to satisfy the hatred in my heart."

Then, Danzo was seen being grabbed by the neck by Toneri. At this moment, his neck was showing a very twisted angle, and his eyes were wide open in disbelief.

He couldn't believe that Toneri actually killed him in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen and a group of ANBU ninjas.

Toneri slowly retracted his hand, along with the wooden branches that imprisoned him.

bang

Danzo's body fell to the ground, stirring up some dust. This was the last sound he could make in the ninja world.

Just like that, Tuan Zang, the leader of a generation, died!

"You!" Sarutobi Hiruzen glared.

Toneri shrugged and looked at Danzo's body lying at his feet, "Since you don't want to be the bad guy, then leave it to me. Anyway, he will be released by you in the end, making it seem like you, the Hokage, have lost their

After losing him as the root leader, it is like completely losing the ability to manage a village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a gloomy face. He did not expect Toneri to be so courageous, to be so straightforward and decisive, and not give Danzo any chance.

Although it is true that Danzo did not do well in some areas, but no matter what, Danzo was his partner.

"Let me, an old man, test your strength!"

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen flicked his wrist, fired two shurikens, and then quickly formed seals with his hands.

"Ninjutsu - Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

The high-speed rotating shurikens quickly changed from just two to dozens.

Toneri grabbed the round dance blade with his backhand, and with his body's dodge and the round dance blade's slash, he accurately knocked down all the shurikens.

"Thunder Release-Pseudo Darkness!"

After doing this, Toneri was not to be outdone. He stepped on the thunder and lightning, and appeared behind Sarutobi Hiruzen in a flash. The circular dance blade wrapped around the thunder and lightning and stabbed towards his back without any unnecessary movements.

"Sandaime-sama!"

"Hokage-sama!"

Several ANBU ninjas nearby couldn't help but scream in surprise, and wanted to intervene, but found that Toneri was too close to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and they might accidentally injure Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Swish

The circular dance blade fell.

There is no familiar feel, nor the bloody splatter of blood.

Shiren raised his eyebrows.

"Earth clone?"

Then he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been pierced by the circle dance blade, turn into a puddle of mud.

"Earth Release - Hardening Technique!"

Kakaka

Sarutobi Hiruzen's earth clone immediately hardened and became very strong and hard, imprisoning Toneri's Round Dance Blade.

Immediately afterwards.

"Earth Release-Earthly River!"

At the location of Toneri and the earth clone, the ground instantly softened, and it was like a mudslide that washed away Toneri and the earth clone together.

Toneri's expression remained unchanged, he let go of the circular dance blade, quickly formed seals with his hands, spiraled out several blades from his feet, drilled them underneath, and imprisoned him in place.

"Earth Release-Earth Dragon Bullet!"

An earth-yellow faucet opened at the front end of the Tuliu River, and balls of mud the size of basketballs spurted out from the Tulong's mouth, aiming directly at Toneri.

"That's it?" Shiren opened his mouth slightly and mocked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened, and his hand seals never stopped, "Fire Release - Fire Dragon Bullet!"

The fire dragon bullet and the earth dragon bullet combine to form a burning red magma fireball.

"It's really a trick." As soon as Toneri finished speaking, these fireballs fell on him.

"Fire Style combined with Earth Style, Hokage-sama has such strong control that he can actually combine two techniques with completely different attributes in the most perfect way, and the power of one plus one far exceeds two."

Some of the ANBU ninjas nearby who were watching the battle closely and wanting to provide help at any time sighed.

They wanted to help, but they couldn't find the right time to cut in. Regardless of the fact that the battle between Toneri and Sarutobi Hiruzen was just a simple collision and alternation of ninjutsu.

But in fact, the speed of the two men's movements made it difficult for them to intervene.

Joining the battlefield casually may result in accidental injuries to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and more importantly, they may themselves fall under the successive attacks.

This is a battle for shadow-level experts, and it is not something they can interfere with.

"Sandaime-sama is a doctor in the ninja world. He has mastered thousands of ninjutsu alone. For him, he can combine ninjutsu at his fingertips."

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen is old, his strength has declined.

However, at this time, he was not weak enough to be defeated by Orochimaru. He had just reached his peak, and his strength was still very strong at this time.

At least, it's much stronger than Toneri imagined.

These two or three attacks in succession and the continuous combination of ninjutsu all demonstrated his rich combat experience and his precise control of the combat rhythm.

Boom boom boom!!!

Toneri's body slowly sank into the mudslide following the attack of the fireball.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned at this scene and shouted, "How long do you want to hide?"

Sure enough, the body of Toneri, who was attacked by the fireball, started to catch fire and slowly turned into wood.

Wood clone!

Toneri, who possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, can't see through Sarutobi Hiruzen's earth clone.

He possesses Wood Escape and Earth Escape, and can travel freely underground.

Slowly emerged from behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"I admit that your strength has not deteriorated much in the third generation. It's a pity that I am not the same person as before."

Toneri's hands also fell to form seals following his words.

"Wood Release-Tree-bound Eternal Burial!"
