NOVEL NEXT Chapter 531: Chapter 531: Danzo Is Gone?
Danzo was gone.
He was instantly eliminated by several Mech-Kai species that locked onto him without giving anyone present time to react. He simply vanished.
After eliminating Danzo, the Mech-Kai calmly announced:
"Unstable element has been eradicated. Entering normal mode."
Having said that, they returned to standing silently in place.
The people of Konoha were completely dumbfounded.
"Dan... Danzo?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at the scene in disbelief. Danzo was just... gone?
He was completely vaporized, leaving nothing behind.
Minato Namikaze, witnessing it all, felt nothing but immense relief. He had wanted to deal with that old bastard for a long time. Now, he didn't even have to do it himself—the Mech-Kai had taken care of it.
"Don't speak such meaningless words. Calm down, Third."
Minato stepped forward. Regarding Danzo's death, he only wanted to applaud. Well done!
It was just too satisfying.
He admittedly also wanted Hiruzen to disappear someday, but now wasn't the time. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. These old fools who couldn't see the situation clearly—it's best they were gone.
Especially when he thought about what his son originally went through. It made him want to wipe them all out.
"Calm down, Third!"
The others began speaking up as well. None of them were fools.
Those few Mech-Kai had instantly vaporized Danzo before anyone could even react. Was that a power any of them could contend with?
And that was just a few left behind. Who knew what other terrifying beings were on the other side?
Trying to conquer that world? That was overestimating themselves.
So, Danzo had died for nothing.
Hiruzen gradually calmed down. He took a deep breath and looked at the Fourth Hokage.
"You know what's going on, don't you?"
Minato nodded and didn't hide anything. He explained the situation with the other world.
After hearing the explanation, everyone at the scene gasped.
That world... was that terrifying?
A world connected to countless other worlds?
And Danzo still dared to have such thoughts?
"Serves him right!!"
"Otherwise, who knows what else he would've stirred up."
"Fourth Hokage, please order the clearance of Root. If not..."
At that moment, Fugaku Uchiha spoke up, clearly delighted.
Since Danzo was dead, shouldn't they hurry up and get rid of Root?
Hearing this, Minato's eyes lit up.
"Kakashi! You and the Uchiha clan head will handle this! Fully investigate Root!"
...
After setting up the portal, Takumi also received a message from Prometheus.
"Hm? Danzo is gone?"
Seeing the message, Takumi was stunned.
He had just left, and Danzo was already dead?
How gutsy was that guy!
But then he couldn't help but sigh.
"Truly worthy of the man who stabbed Susanoo with a kunai."
Thinking back on Danzo's antics, it somehow made sense. Definitely something he'd do.
Though Takumi was speechless, he didn't dwell on it.
After finishing the Hokage's portal, he sent a message to Zhongli in the group chat.
Takumi: [@Zhongli, the gate is set. You can come back now.]
Just as he was about to exit the chat, Kaguya suddenly tagged him.
Houraisan Kaguya: [@Takumi, what about me?]
Seeing the message, Takumi froze for a moment before realizing...
Takumi: [Ah, right... I forgot!]
He scratched his head in embarrassment. He really forgot.
Back home, Kaguya was speechless.
Houraisan Kaguya: [Men really are all unreliable pigs!!]
[Forget it, I'll go myself!!]
This guy Takumi was seriously unreliable. But she couldn't be bothered to scold him. She'd just go herself.
Might as well take a look at the Hokage world too.
Takumi: [Alright then, you go ahead. I'm going to deliver the Ōtsutsuki to Prometheus.]
With that, Takumi exited the chat.
He still had quite a few Ōtsutsuki to hand over to Mobius for research.
So he headed straight to the research institute.
When he arrived, the first person he saw wasn't Klein—it was Ruan Mei.
Seeing the "King of Soft Meals" there, Takumi was surprised. She saw him too.
"I heard you have a strange species with you? Can I see it?"
Ruan Mei's eyes lit up as soon as she saw him and hurriedly asked. That's what she was here for.
"Did Herta tell you?"
Takumi was surprised but quickly understood. Must've been Herta.
Ruan Mei nodded.
"Yes! She said you brought back a very unique species from another world. They can use all sorts of powers and even absorb planetary energy. I'm very interested."
Indeed, Herta had told her.
They weren't in the chat group, but Herta often gossiped about such things and shared news right away.
Once Ruan Mei learned of the species Takumi brought back, she became intrigued and came over.
Seeing this, Takumi opened his Imaginary Space and dumped the captured Ōtsutsuki on the ground.
"These are it. If you want to study them, take a few."
Ruan Mei's eyes sparkled as she examined them.
"Very nice! Thank you! Then I'll let you get back to work. I'm heading out."
She didn't linger at all.
Takumi didn't mind. After seeing Ruan Mei off, he headed inside.
Mobius was currently busy at the lab bench, with Klein assisting.
Hearing the sound, Mobius turned to look. Upon seeing it was Takumi, she spoke up:
"I have some bad news for you."
Takumi was instantly confused.
"Go on."
Mobius looked serious, leaving Takumi puzzled. He just got here and already bad news?
"You may not be able to have children in the future. Your internal power is too strong. No one can bear your energy. Having offspring is practically impossible. But if you ever did, they would be born extremely powerful."
Mobius regretfully shared her findings.
She had been researching this recently and had carefully studied it. The conclusion was disappointing. Using normal methods, Takumi likely wouldn't be able to reproduce.
Unless artificial cultivation was used. But even then, finding a suitable core would be incredibly difficult.
