At this mont, Danzo was feeling genuinely awkward. He had planned to storm out and end the conversation, but Makoto had blocked the door, making his usual dramatic exit impossible.
"Danzo, why are you so quiet? Are you really ready to step down as the leader of Root?"
Makoto glanced at Hiruzen in surprise. He had assud that Sarutobi Hiruzen would just scold Danzo a little and then let him walk away.
After all, the two of them were old friends, why would Hiruzen actually punish him?
But now, it seed like Hiruzen was serious.
Danzo tugged at the door again, still unable to open it. Frustrated, he turned around and narrowed his one good eye, glaring coldly at Makoto.
But Makoto didn't flinch. He just leaned against the door, completely unfazed, then shifted his gaze to Hiruzen.
[Senju Tobirama: That bandaged bastard still has the nerve to glare at people? Does he have no sha? When I co back to life, I swear, I'll gouge out his damn eyeballs....]
[Uchiha Shisui: Lord Second, don't tell Danzo learned that from you?! Do you and your students have a habit of taking people's eyes?]
[Senju Tobirama: Excuse ?! I am NOT his teacher, and I would never claim soone like him as my student!]
[Makoto Ito: Hey, grandpas, Danzo clearly doesn't take seriously! He sees as so weak kid he can push around. Honestly, I think he just thought of kicking my ass]
[But there's no way I can let that happen, not when so many of you have high hopes for ! At this point, isn't kicking my ass the sa as slapping all of you in the face? If he dares to lay a hand on , I won't hold back!]
[Senju Tobirama: Kid, what did we ever do to you?! Why are you dragging us into this?! You can say that to that damn monkey a thousand tis for all I care!]
[Senju Hashirama: Tobirama, what are you talking about? I don't see anything wrong with what he said. Soone explain it to ?]
[Uchiha Madara: You idiot, he just compared his butt to our faces!]
Back in the real world, Danzo kept his gaze locked on Hiruzen. "Hiruzen! What kind of explanation do you even want from ?!"
Hiruzen took a slow drag from his pipe, his face cold and serious.
"How many tis do I have to say it before you get it? Makoto is my student! I've warned you more than once to stay out of his business, but you still tried to kidnap him?"
"Danzo, do you forget that I'm the Hokage? Do you not take my orders seriously at all?"
Danzo exhaled sharply, finally understanding what Hiruzen was getting at. So this wasn't just about Makoto, it was about him ignoring the Hokage's authority.
Hiruzen was using this as an excuse to put him in his place.
Danzo didn't care about that.
As long as he still had control over Root, he could deal with taking a loss here. But If he didn't back down, Hiruzen would take the opportunity to weaken his power, and if he lost Root, what leverage would he have left to compete for Hokage position?
In his opinion, Hiruzen was getting old. If Konoha was going to truly thrive, it needed to be in his hands.
Only he had the vision to restore Konoha's forr glory.
'Everything I've done....it's all been for Konoha!'
Danzo studied Makoto Ito for a mont before speaking. "Kid, this was my mistake. How do you want to make up for it?"
But Makoto wasn't really paying attention. Danzo was looking at him and saying sothing, but what was it exactly?
For a mont, Makoto didn't react.
'Wait...what? I was the one attacked, and now I have to make up for it?'
As he thought of this, Makoto couldn't hold back and said, looking at Danzo.
"You think I am a damn fool? Why the hell would I make up for it?
Danzo blinked, montarily stunned. 'What the hell is this kid talking about? Did this brat even listen to ?!'
Even Hiruzen, standing off to the side, looked confused.
Danzo had already taken a loss in this whole ss, and Makoto was clearly the victim. Now, Danzo had even offered to make it up to him, but instead of responding, Makoto seed completely out of the loop.
Danzo just stood there, dumbfounded, staring at him.
Makoto imdiately flared up."You have the nerve to look at like that?!"
"Your people attacked , and now you expect to make up for it? Where do you get the audacity to say such things?"
"What the hell are you looking at?! Not happy about it?! Co at then! You think I'm so pushover?!"
"You think being a elder makes you important?! Who the hell do you think you are?! Co at , old man!"
Makoto was already preparing to activate Sage Mode if things escalated.
[Senju Tobirama: Kid, calm down for a second! Did you not listen to Danzo's words at all? He was literally saying he's willing to make up for his mistake, not the other way around! How the hell did you even mix this up?!]
