Several figures were currently gathered at the entrance of Konoha.
At their head was Danzo, who had just become the Hokage and was subsequently kicked out of the Chat Group.
At the thought of the suffering he had endured in the Chat Group, Danzo's face was filled with a sense of grievance. He had finally managed to become the Hokage and intended to enter the group to prove himself to his teacher, the Second Hokage.
Unexpectedly, instead of proving himself, he had been hung up and beaten. After that, he had been ground into the dirt by the various Hokage from different worlds.
Danzo felt incredibly wronged. And now, he had been directly kicked out of the Chat Group.
"Damn it! Damn it!!"
"I haven't even exchanged my thousand points yet!"
"Curse it all!!"
The most tragic thing in life is to have once glimpsed supreme possibility only to lose the chance to possess it. Even more tragic is clearly having points but being kicked out before you had the time to spend them.
After being kicked out, Danzo also knew that the Chat Group would come to this world to hunt him down. Therefore, as soon as his consciousness returned to this world, he immediately summoned all the Root ninjas to assemble.
"Danzo-sama, everyone is present!"
"Good! We retreat!"
"Leave Konoha!"
Hearing Danzo's order, the Root ninjas were confused, but none dared to contradict him. After all, they were still under Danzo's cursed seal. Coupled with the brainwashing they had received since childhood, they basically executed whatever order Danzo gave them.
Soon, Danzo and Root quickly departed from Konoha.
"What's the situation?"
"I don't know. He just suddenly took Root and left..."
"Do the two elders not know about this?"
Watching Danzo and the others leave, Kakashi looked toward Utatane Koharu beside him with a confused expression. The latter and Mito Kadomon couldn't help but look at each other; both were also bewildered.
Danzo had just attained the Hokage position he had longed for. What was going on now? No enemies were attacking, yet he was leading Root away in a run.
Moreover, he had left without a single word. This was not at all like Danzo's usual style.
Just as everyone was feeling perplexed, a light gate suddenly appeared above the canopy of the sky. Having just experienced the battle with Pain, everyone instantly became vigilant.
"Damn it!"
"Why are there more enemies?!"
In an instant, all the ninjas in Konoha went on high alert. Might Guy immediately moved to Kakashi's side. His team had been out on a mission when Pain invaded; this time, it was his turn as Konoha's Blue Beast to protect everyone.
However, as everyone watched warily, the people who stepped out of the light gate left them all stunned.
"The Fourth Hokage?!"
"Tsunade-sama?!"
"And the First and Second Hokage!?"
"Wait, Kakashi, and another you!"
"Is that Obito next to them?! And a few others I don't recognize!"
As Aoki and the others stepped out of the light gate one by one, the people in Konoha were instantly dumbfounded. Might Guy, who had been brimming with battle intent, froze on the spot, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Aoki and the others, arriving in this world, looked at the Konoha currently under reconstruction and were momentarily taken aback.
Aoki explained to everyone, "This is Konoha after Pain's invasion."
"If we hadn't rushed to the Fifth Hokage's world last time, the Konoha in her world would have ended up looking like this too."
Tsunade felt quite fortunate about this. Luckily, she had already been chosen by the Hokage Chat Group; otherwise, Konoha might have been destroyed to this extent.
The group soon entered Konoha. Facing this crowd of Hokage—including two Tsunades and an identical Kakashi—Might Guy and the others were still in a daze. The Kakashi from the original Third Hokage's world stepped forward and explained everything to them.
After learning that Aoki and the others were all from different Hokage worlds but were, without exception, all Hokage of Konoha, everyone finally felt at ease.
Seeing the destroyed state of Konoha, Hashirama took action immediately. He activated his Wood Release, and rows of houses sprouted directly from the ground. Under Hashirama's planning, the entire Konoha became even more convenient.
The two Tsunades went to the Konoha Hospital. The Tsunade of this world was still very weak and needed help with treatment.
As for the others, upon learning that Danzo had already fled, Minato directly activated the power of the Door-Door Fruit to open a door in thin air. Using this ability, the group rushed after him.
By the time they caught up with Danzo, the situation had changed.
They saw that Danzo's Root ninjas had suffered countless casualties, their bodies lying twisted and lifeless. Danzo himself was in a wretched state.
Before Aoki and the others could fully grasp what had happened, they witnessed a shocking scene.
They saw Danzo's figure flash as he gripped a kunai and stabbed it directly toward a purple Susanoo.
Clang!
Accompanied by a crisp clashing sound, the kunai snapped into two pieces.
Forget Aoki and the others—even Sasuke, who had manifested the Susanoo, was dazed by this maneuver. He actually froze and didn't continue his pursuit of Danzo.
"Hiss... a kunai to a Susanoo?!"
"What kind of logic is that?"
Whether they knew how to use Susanoo or not, everyone present was deeply shocked by this scene.
However, when he saw Sasuke hunting Danzo, the Second Hokage's brow furrowed.
"Hmph! No matter what, that guy is still a Hokage!"
"Hunting him down is a matter of us Hokage cleaning our own house!"
"It is not the turn of a brat like you to take action!"
As Tobirama finished speaking, an invisible pressure instantly enveloped Sasuke. The terrifying weight of it caused even Sasuke, protected by his Susanoo, to break out in a cold sweat.
Not far behind Sasuke, the masked Obito watched the sudden appearance of the various Hokage and was startled. Especially when he saw another version of himself, Obito was completely dumbfounded.
"This isn't right!! This is twelve out of ten levels of wrong!!"
"Sasuke, you're on your own!"
At this moment, Obito didn't dare to stay any longer. Who knew what was going on with this bizarre scene? To be safe, it was better to retreat.
Voom—
Accompanied by a swirl of space, Obito's figure instantly vanished from the spot, leaving Sasuke alone.
However, Sasuke, who had just witnessed Itachi's death and awakened the Mangekyō, had seen his strength and confidence grow exponentially. He was no longer the Sasuke who had been toyed with by Itachi.
"Hmph! One after another!"
"No matter who you are, anyone who stands in my way..."
"I will kill you all!!"
"After I kill you, I'll go settle the score with Danzo!"
Hearing Sasuke's words, the newly arrived Hokage all fell into a collective silence. Madara Uchiha even turned his gaze toward Aoki. His eyes seemed to be asking Aoki: Is this kid usually this brave?
At this moment, Aoki just wanted to tell Madara: Don't worry about whether he's brave or not. You just need to know that the sky is clear, the rain has stopped, and Sasuke thinks he's the boss again.
"This kid probably needs to experience some 'care' from the Hokage."
"Only then can he learn what respect means!"
Just as Aoki finished speaking, Sasuke charged at the group with an arrogant expression. The purple Susanoo directly covered his body, and the Kusanagi Sword in his hand pointed straight at the Second Hokage, Tobirama, who had just spoken.
At this moment, everyone thought this was quite the spectacle. Tobirama was not one to indulge such behavior. He instantly threw out several kunai.
Seeing the Second Hokage actually use kunai to attack him, Sasuke laughed wildly.
"If this is all you've got!"
"Then just die!"
He didn't care about the flying kunai at all. Sasuke believed that these kunai wouldn't even be able to penetrate the outer layer of his Susanoo.
Just as the kunai reached Sasuke, the Second Hokage instantly activated the Flying Thunder God Technique. His figure appeared out of thin air directly in front of Sasuke.
In that instant, Sasuke instinctively froze.
What greeted him was Tobirama's flying kick.
Boom!!
Facing this strike, the wild laugh on Sasuke's face never faltered. To think someone would try to use a physical attack against his Susanoo—it was utterly ridiculous.
But before Sasuke could counter, a crisp sound of bone cracking rang out.
Crack!
A clearly visible fracture appeared on the ribs of the Susanoo. Seeing this, Sasuke's eyes widened in shock.
Before he could react, the outer Susanoo was smashed open, and Tobirama's foot landed squarely on Sasuke's face.
Bang!!
The powerful force caused Sasuke's face to warp and twist. As fast as he had charged in, he was sent back even faster, flying out like a cannonball.
Boom—
Accompanied by a loud crash, Sasuke's figure smashed directly into the distant mountainside.
The Second Hokage, Tobirama, still looked displeased, as if he felt a localized sense of disgust toward the Sasuke in front of him.
"Cough, cough..."
As the dust from the crater settled, Sasuke's figure emerged, wobbling unsteadily. At this point, Sasuke no longer had any of his previous arrogant posture. He had been kicked into a daze by Tobirama.
But at the thought of Itachi's death, Sasuke fell back into madness.
"Damn it!!! You all deserve to die!!"
"Today, no matter who it is!"
"No one will stop me from killing Danzo!"
