Danzo and the others' faces turned slightly dark. They naturally understood that Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't be joking at a time like this.
But, why didn't they know about the hidden trump card left by the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju?
As the true high-ranking officials and bigwigs in Konoha, there were actually secrets in Konoha that they didn't know about.
The blow this dealt to Danzo, Homura Mitokado, and Utatane Koharu was imaginable.
"Only the successive Hokage are qualified to know about this matter."
Feeling the gazes coming from behind him, Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a calm tone.
As soon as these words were spoken, it instantly shut the three of them up.
Danzo and the others' faces were still somewhat dark, but now they were speechless. If only the Hokage could know, then they were indeed not qualified.
Suddenly, Danzo remembered something. He looked in Jiraiya's direction, and his face couldn't help but become even more gloomy for a moment.
Their pace was quick. It didn't take long before they arrived below the Hokage Office Building.
"How could Shodai(1st)-sama's hidden trump card be left in a place like the Hokage Office Building?"
Utatane Koharu said with a furrowed brow.
As the central hub of all of Konoha, countless people entered and exited the Hokage Office Building every day. If there was really any secret, it would have probably been discovered long ago.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't answer Utatane Koharu. Instead, he turned to look at Jiraiya: "Take out the thing I gave you, and use the hand sign technique I taught you."
As soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, Danzo's eye couldn't help but twitch.
Jiraiya's expression froze for a moment, then a bitter smile appeared on his face. He had had some guesses initially.
But hearing what Lord Third just said, it seems Lord Third is truly planning to make me the next Hokage.
Jiraiya's peripheral vision couldn't help but glance towards Tsunade beside him, and their gazes met.
He quickly averted his gaze. In Jiraiya's heart, compared to himself, Tsunade was absolutely the best candidate to become Hokage.
Jiraiya took out an item similar to a key from his In arms , and then casually inserted the key into the door handle of the Hokage Office Building.
Immediately after, Jiraiya rapidly formed hand signs according to a certain special method. In the blink of an eye, his hands had turned into a blur.
"The hidden trump card left by Shodai(1st)-sama back then wasn't placed in the Hokage Office Building, but in a small pocket dimension located here. This key and the hand sign technique are the key to opening this pocket dimension."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a calm tone.
"Then why insert the key into the door handle? Also, what if the Hokage Building is destroyed by the enemy?"
Tsunade raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but ask.
"Cough, whether the Hokage Office Building exists or not actually doesn't matter. The existence of the key is just to locate the coordinates of this pocket dimension."
Hiruzen Sarutobi explained with a light cough.
While Tsunade and Hiruzen Sarutobi were talking, Jiraiya's hand signs were already complete.
At the same time, a unique energy fluctuation emanated from the key.
The next moment, everyone only felt that the large door in front of them underwent some kind of inexplicable change, but on the surface, there was no difference whatsoever.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was the first to step forward and walk towards it. As if he couldn't see the large door in front of him, he charged straight into it. As a result, his entire body directly entered it.
The others were stunned for a moment. Before Jiraiya could even react, Danzo followed closely behind, using his shoulder to push aside Jiraiya who was blocking the front, and quickly followed in.
Jiraiya: "..."
When everyone came back to their senses, they found that they had already appeared in a pocket dimension that wasn't too large.
The entire space was only about twenty square meters. Not only was it small, but it was also exceptionally empty.
Everyone's eyes looked over, and they immediately saw the three large scrolls standing in the center of this space.
Among these three large scrolls, two were placed in the very center, while the other one was placed to the side, feeling as if it had been casually placed there.
As for the two scrolls placed in the center, one of them was actually nearly one meter high.
"This is the hidden trump card Grandfather left behind back then?"
Tsunade looked at these three scrolls, especially feeling that somewhat familiar Chakra. Her eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others also stared blankly at the three scrolls in front of them, and couldn't help but swallow.
Although they didn't know what was inside these three scrolls, just the Chakra that was emanating from them made several people feel startled.
"Lord Third, you've never been here?"
Seeing the surprised look on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, Jiraiya couldn't help but ask curiously.
"No, Tobirama-sensei instructed back then that under no circumstances should the means here be used unless absolutely necessary, because the two scrolls in the very center were left to deal with one person."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice was a little low. If the current situation weren't truly too critical, he would definitely not have come here.
"Who?" Tsunade was stunned for a moment and asked with some doubt.
"First Mizukage Yūto!" Before Hiruzen Sarutobi could even speak, Jiraiya beside him thought of something and said slowly.
As soon as this name was spoken, everyone present immediately fell silent. They naturally knew that person hadn't died.
"The two scrolls in the very center were left to deal with that person from back then. What about the scroll on the side?"
Danzo slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"That scroll was a jutsu that Shodai(1st)-sama and Tobirama-sensei casually left behind when they were researching the hidden trump card back then. We came here to retrieve this jutsu."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a calm voice.
After speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi walked over to the scroll placed on the edge. He gently held this large scroll in his arms and walked back towards everyone.
"Danzo, you cannot touch the remaining two scrolls, nor can you move them! Unless that First Mizukage appears in the Ninja World again, otherwise, even if Konoha is destroyed, those two scrolls cannot be moved!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared intently at Danzo, his tone even carrying a hint of threat and killing intent.
"You... pedantic!" Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, Danzo, who was clearly plotting something in his heart, was so angry he could only utter three words.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't look at Danzo. He turned his head to look in Tsunade's direction, and a kind expression appeared on his face: "Tsunade, Shodai(1st)-sama's necklace from back then is still there, right?"
Although he said this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze was already fixed on Tsunade's neck.
A vein pulsed on Tsunade's forehead. If not for the serious expression on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, she would have long since been unable to resist raising her fist.
"What about Grandfather's memento?"
Lowering her head, she glanced at the necklace hanging around her neck. Tsunade's tone carried a hint of unnaturalness.
