On the front battlefield, Minato successfully split the Nine-Tails in two and sealed the Yin Nine-Tails into Naruto's body, but at the cost of his own life.

"Third-generation master, from now on, I will ask you to take care of Naruto." Even before his death, Minato still faced it with a smile.

Then he and Kushina looked at Naruto lovingly and said, "I'm sorry, little one. Mommy and daddy can't grow up with you. You have to be well on your own."

Then, Minato and Kushina held hands and fell to the ground together.

The Third Hokage felt very upset. Even if there had to be a sacrifice, it should have been him, an old man, who did it. Why should the young Fourth Hokage be sacrificed?

Just as the Third Hokage was falling into sorrow, the Anbu who had been sent to investigate the situation brought back shocking news.

"Third...Third-generation Hokage, something terrible has happened." The Anbu ninja said in panic.

"Just tell me what's the matter?" The Third Hokage adjusted his mood slightly and then asked.

"Tonight, Yagyu Hōshō attacked the Root alone. When I arrived, he had already... killed Lord Danzo." The Anbu said truthfully.

"What! Where is he! Why is he doing this!" The Third Hokage could no longer control his emotions and roared.

A loud "bang" was heard from the direction of the root. The Third Hokage immediately reacted and realized that Dawn had not left yet. He immediately rushed towards the root and wanted to question Dawn face to face about why he did this. If Dawn could not give a reasonable explanation, he would kill him even at the cost of his own life.

"The Root, the source of cholera in Konoha, has now been completely resolved." Dawn said as he looked at the ruins in front of him.

"In this way, I'm afraid you will stand on the opposite side of Konoha in the future. But I'm a little curious, why did you let that Anbu ninja go back just now?" Tianming asked in Dawn's mind.

"I'm not killing innocent people. What if I don't let him go?" Poxiao said, spreading his hands.

"The Third Hokage should be here soon. Let's leave a gift for him." Poxiao muttered to himself as he sensed the Third Hokage approaching quickly from a distance.

After a while, the Third Hokage brought the Anbu members to the Root. At this time, the place was in ruins and no longer looked the same as before.

The Third Hokage looked at Dawn not far away and asked angrily: "Why did you do this?"

Poxiao chuckled and said, "Why? Third-generation sama, I also want to ask you, why was the Sand Ninja able to accurately know the time of my father's mission to cover the retreat, and why did they send people to kill them? Why did the news of Hatake Sumo's failure in the secret mission spread throughout Konoha in a few days and was despised by everyone? Why did you know all these things, but did nothing?"

When the Third Hokage heard Dawn asking him back, he became even angrier and said, "What do you know? I did all this for Konoha! And, do you have any evidence for what you said?"

Dawn shook his head and said, "I don't have any evidence, and I will never find any. Danzo is not a child, he is an old fox, how could he leave the evidence behind? But... why do I need evidence? I'm not the Hokage."

The Third Hokage looked at Dawn in front of him, and he suddenly felt that the child in front of him was different from before, as if he had never really understood him.

"No matter what, Danzo is a high-ranking official of Konoha and cannot be killed at will, so now I have to put you in Konoha Prison. But don't worry, I will find out the reason soon and deal with you appropriately when the time comes." The Third Hokage said earnestly.

"Third-generation master, I am not an ordinary child anymore. To tell you the truth, I am only a shadow clone here. My real body should have gone far away by now. This shadow clone is not only to say goodbye to you, but also to tell you one thing. You probably can't find any evidence about the matter between White Fang and my father. But there is one thing you can check. You can go and see Uchiha Kagami's body and Danzo's arm."

As the last word was spoken, with a "bang", Dawn's shadow clone turned into a wisp of white smoke and dissipated. Obviously, this was because Dawn's real body was too far away at this time.

The Third Hokage, listening to the last words of Dawn, was also a little strange. What kind of relationship could Danzo have with Uchiha Kagami? Uchiha Kagami had already died.

But Dawn would definitely not tell him this for no reason, so he immediately ordered: "Go and find Danzo's body."

As several Anbu ninjas searched with all their might, they soon brought Danzo's body to the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage carefully looked at the ten closed eyes on Danzo's arm, feeling somewhat puzzled. Thinking of the Uchiha Mirror mentioned by Dawn, he immediately took out a kunai and cut open the eye on Danzo's right hand.

However, after casting Izanagi, the eyes will become insomniac and turn completely grayish white, so the Third Hokage could not see anything special about these eyes.

"This... this is... eyes? But why did Danzo transplant so many eyes on his arms?" The Third Hokage looked at these eyes and said curiously.

Afterwards, the Third Hokage thought about Uchiha Kagami that Poxiao mentioned, and led the Anbu ninjas to the cemetery of the heroes of Konoha.

"Lord Sandaime, do you really want to open Lord Uchiha Kagami's tombstone? This is..." said an old man guarding the cemetery.

"Open it, I will be responsible for any problems." The Third Hokage said decisively.

"Stop!" a voice came from outside the cemetery.

The Third Hokage took a closer look and saw that the person coming was the head of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku.

"Mr. Third, it's not a good idea to disturb the bodies of our Uchiha clan's martyrs rashly, right?" Uchiha Fugaku said to the Third Hokage.

"It's Fugaku. I just want to confirm something very important. After that, I will guard in front of Kagami's grave for three days to express my feelings of offense." The Third Hokage said to Uchiha Fugaku earnestly.

"Confirm what? Does the Third Hokage still have a prejudice against our Uchiha clan? Under the leadership of the Fourth Hokage, has our clan ever done anything to let down Konoha?" Uchiha Fugaku asked with some confusion.

After all, he is the ancestor of the Uchiha clan. It is indeed disrespectful to rashly uncover the tombstone of someone else's family ancestor.

After weighing the pros and cons again and again, the Third Hokage finally decided to bring out what Poxiao said and Danzo's body, and let Fugaku carefully confirm what the eyes on his arm were.

"This is... Izha... Naki! Danzo actually!" Uchiha Fugaku became furious when he saw these gray-white eyes that existed in ancient books and felt the special sensation of the same blood in those eyes.

"So can I confirm this now?" The Third Hokage sighed and said, and Uchiha Fugaku no longer tried to stop him at this time.

When the tombstone was opened, there were only some of Uchiha Kagami's belongings and a thick layer of dust inside. It was obvious that Uchiha Kagami's body had been moved away long ago.

The Third Hokage saw this scene and roughly had the answer in his mind. He turned around, bowed to Uchiha Fugaku and said, "It is Konoha that is sorry for your clan."

Uchiha Fugaku didn't say anything, turned around and left the cemetery. However, the strong murderous aura emanating from him made everyone present feel frightened.
