Chapter 160 - 559: Danzo’s Dead, But All Your Dirty Secrets Are in My Hands

Good thing he was sleeping alone.

"You woke me up for this nonsense? Let them argue it out. Why do I need to get involved?"

"Uh..."

The Anbu operative awkwardly scratched his head. "It was the commander's order. He said we needed you to step in and control the situation."

Well, well...

Takuya couldn't help but chuckle bitterly. Hatake Sakumo, you don't dare face this mess yourself, so you're dragging me in? You're really something.

Fine. I'll remember this. I'll find your son, and maybe I'll teach him and his future wife a little lesson. Just wait and see.

Rubbing his eyes, still half-asleep and annoyed, Takuya reluctantly got dressed. He didn't even bother to wash up before heading straight to the Hokage Office.

Scaling the building like Jiraiya, he climbed through the window—just in time to witness the most intense part of the argument.

"Tsunade..."

Inside the office, the Third Hokage was still trying to calm Tsunade down, hoping she'd sit and have a rational discussion.

Just as he started to speak, he noticed someone on the windowsill and froze.

Sitting there with a mischievous smile, Takuya locked eyes with him.

"So, Lord Third, are you planning a coup against the Hokage's authority?"

Though you were once Hokage, remember—you're retired now.

"Uh..."

The Third Hokage found himself at a loss for words.

Seeing Takuya, Tsunade took a deep breath to calm herself. Folding her arms, she leaned back in her chair, her face cold and expressionless.

"The two elders expressed their dissatisfaction with the Five Kage Summit," she explained. "They believe I, as the Fourth Hokage, should've informed them first. They think they have the right to participate in such important decisions."

Her anger was barely restrained, but she kept it directed at Koharu and Homura rather than the Third Hokage.

After all, it was obvious they had instigated this whole thing, dragging Hiruzen along for backup.

"Oh?"

Takuya feigned surprise. "The two elders want to be involved? That's fantastic! I've been looking for someone to take over this mess."

Leaping into the office, his exaggerated enthusiasm left everyone bewildered.

Even Tsunade blinked in confusion. What's wrong with him?

"Two elders, you couldn't have come at a better time!" Takuya clapped his hands together. "We've got a huge problem on our hands. Turns out, Madara Uchiha isn't dead. He's been lurking in the shadows, plotting something big.

Orochimaru nearly lost his life gathering intel. His strength far exceeds our expectations."

Takuya paused for dramatic effect before flashing a wicked smile.

"Since you two are so eager to take part, I'll leave this matter to you."

Without hesitation, he dumped the responsibility on them.

You love meddling, don't you? You think you can handle everything? Fine, it's all yours. Let's see how you deal with Madara Uchiha.

"You're saying... Madara Uchiha is still alive?"

The Third Hokage's eyes widened in shock, while Koharu and Homura turned pale.

"Yeah, surprising, right?" Takuya nodded. "Danzo's already dead, yet Madara's still kicking."

"!?!?"

"What did you say? Danzo's dead?"

The news hit them harder than Madara's survival.

"Yup. Anbu tracked him down in the Land of Rain," Takuya said casually. "Turns out, he had set up a secret base there and was abducting local ninjas for his human experiments.

Unfortunately, he died by his own hand. Here's the interesting part—he used a Four Symbols Seal on himself to try and take me, Minato, and the Anbu with him. Strange, right?

The Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques are supposed to be restricted. Only the Hokage has permission to access them. How did Danzo get his hands on one?"

"Heh!"

Tsunade let out a bitter laugh.

Koharu and Homura instinctively looked at the Third Hokage, who awkwardly cleared his throat. Well... I did authorize it...

"And by the way," Takuya added, his smile turning icy, "Danzo left quite a collection of dirt behind. I've got evidence involving all three of you. Should I make it public?"

Evidence? Did he really have proof?

Not a chance. Takuya didn't even know where Danzo's base was. But did that matter?

If Takuya said he had it, then he had it.

Oh no...

The Third Hokage's heart sank. Koharu and Homura's confidence crumbled.

If that evidence surfaced, they'd all be done for. Even Hiruzen wouldn't escape unscathed.

Takuya watched their panic with satisfaction before continuing, "It's truly shocking how much power the so-called advisor had. Misappropriating village funds, commandeering supplies from the logistics and medical departments—his crimes are staggering.

And the number of people involved... truly horrifying."

His voice dropped to a cold whisper. "Would you like to hear the full list?"

He paused, letting the tension build. "Oh, and about the forbidden techniques—how did so many end up in Danzo's secret base? Shouldn't those be under Hokage jurisdiction?"

Sweat dripped down the Third Hokage's brow. Koharu and Homura shifted uncomfortably.

"Hatake Sakumo!"

Takuya's sudden shout broke the silence.

The Anbu Commander appeared almost instantly, awaiting orders.

"Arrest the Shimura clan head," Takuya ordered coldly. "Danzo's crimes involved his entire clan. I'll personally interrogate them tomorrow."

Ignoring the shocked stares from the others, Sakumo glanced at Tsunade for confirmation.

Without hesitation, Tsunade tossed him the Hokage seal.

"Do it," she said firmly.

"Yes!"

Sakumo bowed and left, his departure swift and decisive.

Whether innocent or guilty, the Shimura clan was about to have a very bad day.

"No!"

The Third Hokage finally snapped, desperately trying to stop Sakumo.

But it was too late. The Anbu Commander didn't even glance back.

His loyalty was to Tsunade alone. As for the others... they could kindly go to hell.

Now you panic? After everything you've done to me? It's a little late for that.

"What exactly are you trying to do?!"

The Third Hokage's voice trembled with anger and fear.
