The man standing at the top of the ninja world

"We cannot guarantee that Kushina, who is also from the Uzumaki clan, will be able to match Nagato's Rinnegan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen flashed a complex light and whispered: "Don't forget the lessons learned in the wood escape experiment."

Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadoen, and Kaden Koharu were speechless for a moment. They all knew the meaning of "Lessons from the Wood Release Experiment" spoken by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The plan to reappear Wood Release in Konoha by transplanting Senju Hashirama's cells was not started in recent years, but started shortly after Senju Hashirama's death.

The people who first planned this plan at that time were not Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo who are now in charge of hosting, but Senju Hashirama's younger brother, the second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama himself.

You know, when Senju Hashirama died, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the three Hokage advisors present were just a few jonins of Konoha, and they were not qualified to take care of Senju Hashirama's body.

And by the time Sarutobi Hiruzen became the Hokage, and Danzo and the other two became advisors and held high positions of power, many years had passed since the death of Senju Hashirama. By this time, it was too late to study the first-generation cells, because At this time, Senju Hashirama's corpse had only bones left, so how could he extract cells?

Therefore, in order to study the first-generation cells, we must start extracting and preserving the first-generation cells shortly after Senju Hashirama's death. At that time, only Senju Tobirama, the Hokage, had the right to extract and preserve the first-generation cells from Senju Hashirama. A part of the cells were taken out from the corpse and replicated for study.

The experiments that Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo are currently doing are also inherited from Senju Tobirama.

The purpose of the Wood Release experiment is to transplant Senju Hashirama's cells into other ninjas so that the transplanted person can control the power of Wood Release. And the best candidate for the transplant is a ninja from the Senju clan's own clan. , after all, they have the same origin as Senju Hashirama.

When this experiment was first carried out, the Senju clan was still in its heyday, with many ninjas and jounin emerging in endlessly. The Senju clan was the family with the deepest affection for Konoha among all the families in Konoha. After all, Konoha It was founded by them, and the first and second generation Hokage were both the patriarchs of the Senju clan, so at that time there were a lot of ninjas from the Senju clan who volunteered to become test subjects for the Wood Release experiment.

But the result was failure without exception. Whether it was a native ninja of the Senju clan or an ordinary ninja who was not a member of the Senju clan, after transplanting the first-generation cells, there was only one result: death. The best situation for the ninjas of the Senju clan was It's just a matter of holding on for a few more days.

The three Danzos knew it well, and Hiruzen Sarutobi mentioned this matter to them now, obviously to remind them not to think that since Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina are both from the Uzumaki clan, there will be no problems.

The three of them were silent for a moment, and Danzo couldn't help but said: "Hiruzhan, you said it yourself, the Wood Release and the Rinnegan Eye are two different things. The Wood Release cannot be controlled by people of the same clan, but it does not mean that the Rinnegan Eye cannot be controlled by the same clan. We can definitely give it a try.”

After all, he was still unwilling to accept that the proposal he had worked so hard to come up with was rejected.

"Try it." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo with cold eyes, "Danzo, have you ever thought about the consequences if you fail?"

After saying that, he didn't wait for Danzo to answer and continued: "Let me tell you what the consequences of failure will be."

"Once Kushina is unable to fit into the Samsara Eye, she is likely to die due to the rejection reaction. In other words, Konoha will not only lose the power of the Samsara Eye, but also lose the nine original possessions. tail"

"At that time, Konoha may even be destroyed by the Nine-Tails' revenge."

The reason for losing the Rinnegan Eye is because if they finally decide to transplant Nagato's Rinnegan Eye to Uzumaki Kushina, it will be equivalent to giving up the possibility of Nagato serving Konoha. You gouged out someone's eyes for no reason, and you still How is it possible to want people to work for you? Even if Nagato didn't have any ill feelings toward Konoha at first, he would definitely regard Konoha as his enemy after his eyes were gouged out.

Therefore, after the failure, they will no longer be able to transplant the Samsara Eye back to Nagato. By then, even if Konoha has the Samsara Eye, no one will be able to use it, it will be just a decoration.

The loss of the Nine-Tails is even simpler. Uzumaki Kushina is the only successor of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki after the death of Uzumaki Mito. If she dies due to rejection, Konoha will not be able to find another one who can become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. If the candidate is a powerful candidate, the best result is to let Uzumaki Mito take Kyuubi with him when he dies, so as to prevent Kyuubi from taking revenge on Konoha after he is freed.

But doing this is to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, because the tailed beast will not really die. Even if it dies, it will be resurrected. After a few years, when the Nine-Tails is resurrected, it will still take revenge on Konoha for imprisoning it for decades.

The Kyuubi is the strongest among the tailed beasts. If it is determined to attack Konoha non-stop, Konoha may indeed be destroyed as a result.

The reason why the three Hokage consultants can become consultants is not only because they are disciples of Senju Tobirama. Their own abilities are also outstanding among ninjas. In other words, it is precisely because they are geniuses that they can be recruited by Senju Tobirama. Chosen as a disciple.

There was no need for Sarutobi Hiruzen to elaborate, they themselves quickly thought through all these consequences, their expressions changed drastically, and a few drops of cold sweat broke out on Koharu's forehead when they went to bed.

"It seems that you have finally figured it out." After spending decades together, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the expressions of the three of them and knew that they had figured everything out.

But he was not prepared to simply let them go. He wanted to pursue the victory and completely make them give up supporting this proposal.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked around the three of them and said loudly: "Even if Konoha is lucky enough to be able to withstand the attack of the Nine-Tails, what can Konoha without the power of the Nine-Tails do to fight against the tailed beasts from the four countries of water, earth, wind and thunder?"

"When the time comes on the battlefield, Danzo, can you, like Ye Yue Ai, use your body to resist the tailed beast jade?"

"I" Danzo's face was extremely ugly, but he couldn't say a word. How could he physically resist the tailed beast jade like that monster of the Third Raikage? Let alone resist the tailed beast jade, if he didn't use ninjutsu and relied solely on his body If so, any tailed beast could kill him with one punch.

Although Mito Katoen and Koharu Tenzin were not named, they were not much better. The reason why they were not named was because they were weaker than Danzo. If Danzo could not fight, they would be even more powerful. It’s impossible.

Seeing that all three of them had nothing to say, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "The consequences of a failed transplant are too serious for Konoha to bear, and we have no way to guarantee that the transplant will be successful, so I cannot agree to this. suggestion."
