Naruto: Thousand Hands of Glory

When Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo walked into the sixth training ground, their eyes fell on Mito's back. Mito stood in the center of the training ground with her back to them, as if immersed in past memories. The moonlight shone on her, casting a soft silver glow on her figure.

As Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo slowly approached, their footsteps echoing softly on the sand of the training ground, accompanied by their respect for Mito, the two stopped in front of Mito and saluted the legend of Konoha with the most traditional etiquette.

"Mito-sama."

"You are here."

Mito's voice was calm and deep, with a hint of years of precipitation. She did not turn around, but just stared quietly ahead, as if watching the passing years.

"I wonder if Lord Mito has summoned us here for some important matter?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked tentatively, a hint of caution in his voice.

"It's nothing serious. I just feel like doing something new recently. I can't help but think of the occasional activities I used to have with Hashirama. I want to find someone to practice with. What do you think? Who of you is going to come first to test whether my skills have declined over the years?"

When Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo heard what Mito said, they felt that something was wrong and that he was about to lose his temper.

Lady Mito, not to mention her identity as the wife of the first Hokage, just the fact that she is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the master of sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan is enough to make the two of them suffer a lot, not to mention that if Lady Mito really teaches you a lesson, would you dare to fight back?

"This is obviously to vent their dissatisfaction with the attack on Shengshu and Liuxia!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself that he knew that Lady Mito attached great importance to the safety of the village, and this incident undoubtedly touched her bottom line.

Although Danzo was becoming increasingly uneasy, he still tried his best to remain calm on the surface. He tried to politely refuse the upcoming "training".

"Mito-sama, you are already old after all. And what about the Kyuubi? Should we just forget about it?"

Mito's eyes were as sharp as torches, and her sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through Danzo's inner uneasiness. She smiled slightly, and her tone was filled with unquestionable determination.

"Shimura, it seems that you rarely fight with others since the situation has stabilized. That's perfect. You go first, Nine-Tailed Fox. Nine-Tailed Fox can't cause any trouble here. As for you, Monkey, just stay away and I'll deal with you later."

"Alright, Master Mito, Danzo, you better be careful and don't do anything dirty!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen heard Mito's decision and couldn't help but feel relieved. He knew that he could avoid this unexpected battle for the time being, but at the same time he was also worried about Danzo.

Although Danzo felt a little uneasy, he knew that he couldn't escape. He had no evidence and would be beaten up at worst. He took a deep breath, adjusted himself, and prepared for the upcoming battle.

At Konoha's sixth training ground, Danzo was a little uneasy, but his face remained calm. He knew Mito's strength and the challenge he was about to face.

"Since Lord Mito is in such a mood, Danzo will of course accompany him." There was a hint of firmness in Danzo's voice. Although he was nervous, he was still ready to face this contest.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stepped aside, his eyes fixed on the upcoming duel. Danzo was just about to strike first and then admit defeat with a few more casual blows.

However, Mito's actions were much faster than Danzo had imagined. She seemed to have seen through Danzo's intentions and did not give him any chance to strike first.

"King Kong Blockade!"

A number of chains made of chakra suddenly extended from Mito-sama's back. They flashed a deep blue light, and the surface was covered with complex sealing runes. These chains were not only as hard as diamond, but also extremely flexible, like living tentacles, whipping towards Danzo with great force and speed.

These chakra chains drew arcs in the air, making sharp sounds of breaking through the air. They had only one target - Danzo. Danzo's pupils suddenly contracted, and he felt the oppression brought by the chakra chains.

"It seems that Lord Mito is really angry this time. I hope you won't really do that, otherwise I will..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was outside the field, saw Uzumaki Mito use the Uzumaki clan's strongest sealing technique right from the start, so he knew that this time things were going to get serious, and he might not be able to escape for a while, so he decided to arrange for the surrounding Anbu to move away a little bit.

Facing such an attack, Danzo knew that he could not be careless. He quickly formed a seal, ready to use his own ninjutsu to deal with Mito's diamond seal.

"Wind Style. Vacuum Wave!"

With a low shout from Danzo, a thin and long transparent wind line came out of his mouth. Although the wind line was thin, it contained amazing destructive power, like a sharp long knife, slashing towards the chakra chain diagonally.

Danzo tried to use this move to break the sealing chain, but the strength of the Diamond Seal was far beyond his expectations.

The wind blade collided with the chakra chain, making a harsh friction sound, but not even a trace was left on the chain of the Diamond Seal.

There was a hint of surprise in Danzo's eyes. He didn't expect that his wind escape technique could not cause any damage to the Diamond Seal.

"It seems that you have finally forgotten that power is secondary to strength. You are no longer the idealistic young man you used to be because of your excessive pursuit of power."

Mito looked at the increasingly gloomy man in front of him, and after all, he could no longer be compared to the young man under Tobirama's command.

Danzo became more and more annoyed as he listened to Uzumaki Mito's words, but what was even more dangerous was the Kongo blockade before him.

Danzo became more and more irritated as he listened to Mito's words. He was filled with resentment and anger, but what was more dangerous was the diamond seal in front of him. He didn't expect that Uzumaki Mito, who was so old that he couldn't even maintain his appearance, could still burst out with such power.

"This is the power of family bloodline. Be it Uzumaki Mito, Senju Hashirama, or Kagami, they all rely on the power of their family to make themselves unable to catch up with them forever! I will definitely have such power! Whether it's the Sharingan, the Wood Release, or the Uzumaki Sealing Technique! They should all be mine!" Danzo shouted in his heart, his determination became even stronger.

"Wind Escape. Vacuum Jade!"

Danzo formed a seal again, and he concentrated all his chakra into this attack. This time, what he spit out was no longer a thin line of wind, but a huge wind ball, which expanded rapidly in the air and then rushed towards the chain of the diamond seal at an astonishing speed.

The wind ball collided with the chakra chain, causing a huge explosion, and the chakra fluctuations formed a huge whirlwind above the training ground.

Although Danzo's attack was powerful, the chains of the Diamond Seal were still as strong as ever. They danced in the air, as if mocking Danzo's powerlessness.

"Shimura Danzo, you disappoint me so much!" Mito's voice was full of disappointment and anger. Her words were double entendres, condemning Danzo for betraying his Konoha companions, and expressing her sadness that this once idealistic boy had now become so gloomy.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood aside, his eyes revealing complicated emotions.

He and Danzo were both young men who grew up under Mito's watch, but now they seem to no longer be the high-spirited young men, neither he nor Danzo.

He understood Mito's disappointment, not only his disappointment in Danzo personally, but also his concern for the future of Konoha as a whole.

Mito did not give Danzo any chance to explain. The Diamond Sealing she controlled became extremely fierce. Those chakra chains were no longer simple restraints, but turned into violent attackers.

The chains danced in the air, as agile as a group of fast-moving spirit snakes, and struck Danzo fiercely. Each blow was accompanied by a sharp sound of wind, and the force was so great that it seemed that even the hardest rock could be shattered in one blow.

Although Danzo was panicking, his movements were not slow. He had no time to cast hand seals or perform ninjutsu, so he could only rely on instinct to dodge left and right.

He ran around the training ground like a headless fly, trying to avoid those fatal attacks. But the speed and power of the King Kong blockade far exceeded his imagination, and he was hit several times, and every time he grimaced in pain.

After the last heavy blow, the chains of the King Kong blockade, like a python that had successfully caught its prey, tightly wrapped around Danzo's limbs and body, tying him up tightly. He was hung in the air, unable to move, and could only hang there helplessly, like a fish out of water.

Danzo struggled in the air, the chakra in his body surging like a tide, and every struggle revealed his strong desire to break free from the restraints.

His muscles were tense and veins bulged, but no matter how hard he tried, the chains of the King Kong Lock still bound him tightly, with no signs of loosening.

Even the most powerful Nine-Tails could not break free from the Diamond Seal used by Uzumaki Kushina before her death, let alone the Diamond Seal performed by Mito herself.

"Today I will teach you one last lesson: there are some things you shouldn't do, and some things you shouldn't extend!"

Although Mito's voice was calm, her eyes were cold and she had no sympathy for Danzo. Her words were not only a warning to Danzo, but also a teaching to Sarutobi Hiruzen who was present.

If it weren't for the promise he made to Yanagishita, Danzo would not have been able to leave this training ground alive today, regardless of whether there was solid evidence or not.

"Monkey, I'm tired. I'll remember the meal you gave me today." Mito turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and her words carried a deep reminder. "Remember, you are the Hokage, the Hokage of Konoha! Think about whether you can still face Tobirama in the Pure Land!"

"Thank you for your teachings, Mito-sama!"

Although I think it was wrong for Uzumaki Mito to beat up his good friend like this without any evidence.

But at least he didn't get himself into trouble and saved face for himself as the Hokage. As for Danzo, it's enough that he's still alive. Lord Mito, who even Tobirama Sensei is afraid of, what can I do!

"Okay, you know it in your heart. As for Shimura Danzo, I think his current condition is not suitable for continuing to serve as the Hokage's assistant. What do you think, Monkey?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment. It seemed that he could not save his old friend. Although Konoha needed him, Lord Mito's anger must be explained.

"I think so too. I will propose at the elders' meeting tomorrow that Danzo should rest and recuperate for a while."

As for Danzo's opinion? It's no longer important.
