The Senju clan has always been a family that Danzo cares about.
The most important thing is that the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan are the direct descendants of Asura and Indra.
Danzo cares very much about these two families.
In fact, Danzo already had a cell cultivation plan for the two races, and Orochimaru had already prepared a large number of clone culture tanks.
However, in this great ninja war, Danzo only collected some corpses of the Uchiha clan.
So many members of the Senju clan died, but hardly any bodies were seen.
In the original work, how did the huge Thousand Hands clan disappear?
There are three "guesses" that have the most audiences.
One was to participate in the genocide war in the Kingdom of Whirlpool, and for the sake of the alliance between the Senju clan and the Whirlpool clan, they were destroyed together in the Kingdom of Whirlpool.
However, because of Danzo's butterfly, the country of Whirlpool was destroyed, and he did not ask for help from Konoha in a big way. As long as Konoha asked for help, it was only the top management of Konoha. Unfortunately, there was no one from the Senju clan in the top level of Konoha.
, they had no chance to rescue the Uzumaki clan, Danzo confirmed this with his own eyes.
One is war. The Senju clan was completely wiped out in World War II.
However, Danzo also has a "plan" for this. Even if all the Senju clan is really killed, not all the Senju clan will go to the battlefield. The Senju Han who he has seen before, as an ordinary person, is
It is impossible to go to the battlefield.
The last one is that the Senju clan gave up the surname "Senju" and integrated into Konoha.
This is the most "reasonable" guess that Danzo feels, and it is also the most detailed situation in Danzo's "plan". The Senju clan giving up the "Senju" surname is equivalent to giving up Konoha's right to "Senju".
"The privileged protection of Danzo means that Danzo has hundreds of ways to get people into the "root".
However, all guesses and all "plans" failed.
The Thousand Hands Clan mysteriously disappeared.
but……
Danzo moved his eyes away from the commemorative monument and looked at the grave area next to the commemorative monument.
"The Senju clan on the battlefield disappeared mysteriously, with no bodies. In the Senju clan in Konoha village, the Senju clan members who did not go to the battlefield also disappeared mysteriously, with no corpses. Only one Senju clan member is still in Konoha, Tsuna.
Tsunade. But Tsunade is a disciple of the third generation and is not easy to get close to. But... there is another special existence."
Danzo slowly came to a tombstone with the words "rope tree" written on it.
Naoki, Tsunade's younger brother, had the blood of the Senju clan, but died in the early days of World War II.
In the original work, his internal organs were even eviscerated.
The rope tree does not have any special status in Konoha. Just because he is Tsunade's younger brother, he has attracted the attention of the Sannin and Sarutobi Hiruzen. After his death, he was treated so close to the memorial monument.
However, this is Konoha, and digging graves will damage the positive image you have established in Konoha.
Danzo slowly left and made a gesture to convey a message to his guards: find someone to steal the body of the rope tree.
Danzo believes: As long as I didn't do it, it has nothing to do with me, and I am the most innocent.
The clouds of World War II have dissipated.
But all the big families became frightened.
With the Uzumaki Kingdom annihilation incident, Uzushiokage Village was completely wiped out from the ninja world.
The well-informed major families all knew that the Uzumaki Kingdom had asked for help, but they gave up on the Uzumaki clan with the secret encouragement of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
It can be said that the massacre of Uzushiokage Village was caused by the third generation.
The third generation greatly enhanced his personal reputation through World War II. Many middle-level ninjas admired the third generation very much and became his supporters.
Naturally, no one would believe this "rumor".
The Senju clan suffered heavy losses in World War II, either killed in battle or missing. Now the Uzumaki clan has been wiped out, Mito Uzumaki has passed away, and the biggest winner of all this is Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After thinking about it carefully, the senior officials of the major families have become cautious.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took the opportunity to propose a series of reform measures, which were unanimously approved by all the major families.
Even after that, Sarutobi Hiruzen made some decisions public and implemented them directly without convening a meeting of the major families.
Regarding this change, all major families dare not speak out in anger.
From then on, Konoha Village was under the absolute control of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
In the next few years, Danzo once again lived a humble life. The Land of Rain no longer looked for the Yahiko trio, but instead looked for the "Akatsuki" organization.
The main body is constantly hoarding chakra, and the chakra stored in the secret method of Dantian is also increasing.
After years of "safety", Danzo gradually began to believe Uzumaki Mito's words. The mastermind behind the scenes probably didn't notice him, or looked down on him.
However, the ninja world is not at ease, and Danzo plans to accumulate more chakra before considering a plan to return to the surface.
…
However, a few years later, some rumors began to appear in Konoha Village, and Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumoge, who threatened the position of Hokage, became the target of the rumors.
Danzo was very surprised by this. In the original work, Danzo felt that Hatake Sakumo was competing with him for the position of Hokage, so he used the power of public opinion to trick him to death.
But Danzo did not follow the old path this time, and according to Danzo's understanding, even if he wanted to be Hokage, when Hokage was still young and he was not sure that he would definitely become Hokage, he would not deliberately eliminate Hatake Sakumo.
Wild competitors who are not direct descendants of Hokage, are direct descendants of Naruto the real threat, right?
After Danzo sent "Gen" to conduct a secret investigation, it was discovered that these rumors were created by the ANBU.
This is a bit spiritual.
It seems that someone has realized the power of "public opinion".
And some people don't want Hatake Sakumo to participate in the competition for the position of Hokage.
The way the Third Generation dealt with the Senju Clan and the Uzumaki Clan made many big clans feel uneasy, so they came up with a plan to elect the Fourth Hokage.
During World War II, Hatake Sakumo, who performed extremely well, became the target of major families.
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi is no longer the same Hiruzen Sarutobi he was when he first became Hokage.
His ANBU intelligence has spread to every corner of Konoha.
As soon as the major families had such a sign, the Hokage Tower where Sarutobi Hiruzen was located had already received relevant information.
As a result, bad remarks about Hatake Sakumo spread all over the streets of Konoha overnight.
Any family involved in this incident will not fare well.
The Fuma clan has a close relationship with the Hatake family. In this public controversy, the Fuma clan sided with Sakumo Hatake.
However, the good times did not last long. Ninjas holding important positions in Konoha's important positions in the Fuuma family were successively found to have inappropriate behavior or behaviors that were inconsistent with their status.
The Fuma family lost all its rights in Konoha overnight.
Some families who benefited from it actively jumped out and gave the Feng Mo clan the final blow.
Several geniuses from the Feng Demon Clan disappeared for no reason, and the Feng Demon Clan fell into internal chaos.
From then on, no one dared to stand on Hatake Sakumo's side.
The whole of Konoha was in a state of abuse, and everyone was complaining about Hatake Sakumo's bad qualities.
One night.
The Hatake family.
Hatake Sakumo was alone, sitting in his room, bowing his head and saying nothing.
Kakashi Hatake, who was just three years old, was already asleep next door.
Hatake Sakumo pulled out his silver-colored short sword from behind.
It's made of chakra metal, and only a tiny amount of chakra is needed to make it extremely sharp.
