"Since it's all decided, there's no need for further words. Let's get started!"
With that, Tobirama Senju instantly teleported toward Danzo Shimura, intending to kill him on the spot.
Over the past three days, Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju have used their own methods to ascertain the current situation in Konoha and know that Jiraiya's words were true, which is why they devised tonight's purge operation.
Although Tobirama Senju and Danzo Shimura had a past relationship, Tobirama Senju would still not hesitate to take action against the village.
Jiraiya and Hashirama Senju did not hesitate and charged towards Danzo Shimura.
Such a large-scale operation was not out of respect for Shimura Danzo, but rather to kill him in one fell swoop, leaving him no chance.
Upon seeing this, Shimura Danzo knew that there was no turning back.
Not daring to be careless or hold back, he unleashed his full power and called upon the members of the Root to come and support him.
However, Danzo Shimura's appeals went unanswered.
Because the Root members who came to help were all stopped by Kakashi and Might Guy.
Seeing this, Shimura Danzo seemed to realize his fate and began his final struggle.
Amidst the shocked gazes of Jiraiya, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju, Danzo Shimura tore off the bandage on his right hand, revealing the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan embedded in his arm.
That's not all. Through this arm, Danzo Shimura also used Hashirama Senju's unique Wood Release ninjutsu.
Clearly, Shimura Danzo's arm had cells transplanted from Senju Hashirama, which was the only way he could use Wood Release ninjutsu.
This fact also confirms that the Konoha leadership secretly launched a campaign against the research on Hashirama Senju's cells.
Naturally, Danzo Shimura's right hand further enraged Jiraiya, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju.
The fact that this right hand, inlaid with the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, reveals just how corrupt Konoha has become.
At this moment, his determination to kill Shimura Danzo became even stronger.
The result, of course, is beyond doubt.
Although Shimura Danzo possessed the Sharingan, he was able to use Wood Release ninjutsu, and even the ultimate eye technique, Izanagi, which could turn the tide of battle.
However, even with the combined strength of Jiraiya, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju, who were extremely experienced in combat and possessed great power, there was still no chance of survival.
And so, the great battle began and ended in silence.
As the first rays of dawn broke on the second day, Jiraiya and his group emerged from Root's base.
As for Shimura Danzo, he has fallen into eternal slumber in the Root's territory.
However, the problems that Konoha Village faces today have not been resolved with the death of Shimura Danzo.
The reason is that within Konoha, it wasn't just Shimura Danzo who was corrupt; there were other high-ranking officials in Konoha as well.
To completely eliminate the future troubles in Konoha, the purge operation must continue.
In the following days, Jiraiya, Hashirama Senju, and Tobirama Senju transformed into Shinigami of the Pure Land, relentlessly reaping the already decaying Konoha leadership.
At first, things were fine, but as more and more high-ranking officials in Konoha died, the truth could no longer be concealed and was discovered by the people. Suddenly, the people of Konoha were filled with fear and panic.
It was in this environment that Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju stepped forward as the First Hokage and the Second Hokage, respectively.
Subsequently, the entire Hidden Leaf Village was in an uproar. The undercurrents that had been surging were temporarily calmed down by the appearance of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju.
Not only Konoha, but other ninja villages also learned of this news through spies.
Unsurprisingly, the ninja world was shaken once again.
The return of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju may be good news for Konoha, but it is definitely not good news for other ninja villages.
Even the balance of the ninja world will be disrupted by the return of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju.
As a result, undercurrents began to stir in the ninja world.
Many ninja villages have even begun to secretly contact other ninja villages, intending to form alliances.
Clearly, Konoha, which now possesses both Hashirama and Tobirama Senju, is the greatest threat to them, and they must form an alliance to counter it.
In an instant, an invisible smoke of war filled the ninja world, as if telling the story of the impending Fourth Shinobi World War.

Chapter 606 First Meeting with Tsunade, Chen Anxia's Temptation!
Short book street.
Tsunade's appearance silenced the once bustling Tanabata Street.
Not only that, almost all eyes around were on Tsunade.
The reason for this is not because Tsunade is particularly beautiful, but because Tsunade has a nickname in Tanabata Street - the legendary fat sheep.
As for the origin of this title, it is related to Tsunade's gambling addiction.
It is well known that Tanabata Street is famous for its gambling industry, which is very developed and full of casinos.
Tsunade frequented almost all the casinos in Tanabata, and lost nine out of ten times, contributing a huge amount of revenue to the casinos in Tanabata.
Therefore, all the gamblers in Tanabata Street know that gambling with Tsunade is like getting free money, which is also the origin of the title "the legendary fat sheep".
Tsunade herself was aware of this.
However, Tsunade didn't care about any of that, nor did she care about the stares focused on her. She walked into a casino on her own.
Unsurprisingly, the noisy casino fell silent upon Tsunade's arrival, and the gamblers' eyes seemed to turn into the shape of money as they looked at her.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Tsunade walked to a gambling table and began her gambling spree for the day.
The silent one standing to the side looked helpless, and at the same time felt sorry for her wallet.
Although Shizune kept trying to dissuade Tsunade from gambling, her efforts were completely in vain.
As Jingyin expected, in just half an hour, her purse was completely empty.
But Tsunade was not satisfied at all. After learning that Shizune had lost all her money, she not only did not stop in time, but also wanted to borrow money from the bookmaker.
Upon realizing Tsunade's intention, Shizune's expression changed immediately, and she hurriedly said, "Lady Tsunade, have you forgotten how difficult it was for us to pay off our debt from last time?"
"Let's stop here for today, and stop gambling!"
Shizune's words made Tsunade freeze, and at that moment, reason seemed to overcome her gambling nature.
Just then, a voice suddenly came and said, "I can lend you money without interest... no, I'll give you 100 million taels."
"But the condition is that you have to make a bet with me and place a wager."
The sudden sound attracted the attention of Tsunade, Shizune, and everyone else present.
One million taels is not much for the casino owner or Tsunade.
The casino's bookmaker goes without saying, and Tsunade's connection stems from her past as a Konoha ninja who had carried out missions.
The reward for an S-level mission is over 100 million taels.
Although S-rank missions are rare, A-rank missions offer rewards ranging from 15 to 100 taels of silver, depending on their difficulty.
With Tsunade's strength, she certainly wouldn't be short of 100 million taels if she were willing to carry out the mission.
But what truly interested Tsunade was the person who said those words.
Clearly, the person who said these words knows themselves and has ulterior motives.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have said those words.
Without any hesitation, Tsunade looked in the direction of the sound.
Upon looking, Tsunade saw Chen Anxia slowly walking in front of her.
Because Chen Anxia was not carrying any headband that could symbolize his ninja identity or the faction he belonged to.
Therefore, Tsunade did not immediately associate Chen Anxia with ninjas, and thought that Chen Anxia was just an ordinary civilian.
Therefore, Tsunade did not take Chen Anxia seriously. Instead, she showed an interested expression and asked, "What is the bet? You can tell me."
Seeing this, Chen Anxia didn't take it to heart and said directly, "If you lose, you will work for me from now on, and I will not treat you unfairly. I will give you more money than you can spend."
"And if I lose, not only will I give you the 100 million taels as promised, but I can also give you an extra 1000 million taels, and at the same time revive your younger brother Nawaki and your first love Kato Dan."
Tsunade, who was originally nonchalant, lost control of her emotions after hearing Chen Anxia's words. Her monstrous strength was unleashed unintentionally, causing the gambling table and the ground around it to collapse.
This scene terrified the group of ordinary gamblers around them.
But none of them left, because they were also curious about what Chen Anxia had said, and at the same time, they couldn't imagine what power in this world could bring the dead back to life.
Chen Anxia didn't care about Tsunade's reaction at all and continued, "By the way, to add something, even if you lose, I can still revive Nawaki and Kato Dan for you."
Hearing Chen Anxia mention those two names again only intensified Tsunade's already turbulent emotions.
This time, however, Tsunade managed to control her emotions, but her expression was terrifyingly solemn, carrying an intimidating sense of oppression. She looked at Chen Anxia and asked, "Who are you? Why do you know about Nawaki and Dan?"
"And tell me, what is the method you mentioned for resurrecting them?"
Chen Anxia completely ignored the terrifying pressure emanating from Tsunade, and smiled slightly, saying, "Before answering your questions, let me introduce myself first."
"My name is Chen Anxia, and I used to be a member of Konoha Village."
Upon hearing Chen Anxia's words, Tsunade's chakra suddenly became uncontrollable and erupted violently, creating a whirlwind that sent the surrounding gamblers flying and even cracked the ground.
Only Chen Anxia remained unmoved in the face of this terrifying burst of chakra, his expression unchanged.
Tsunade didn't seem to care, and asked in a low voice, "So it was you who killed the Third Hokage?"
Seeing this, Chen Anxia felt a surge of wicked amusement and retorted, "It was his summoned beast, the Ape Demon, that killed the Third Generation. What does that have to do with me?"
Chen Anxia's answer clearly surprised Tsunade, causing her to catch her breath and calm down the chakra that had erupted within her.
Chen Anxia nodded in satisfaction at Tsunade's reaction and then said, "Minato."
The moment Chen Anxia finished speaking, a yellow flash appeared beside him, revealing its true form: Minato Namikaze.
The appearance of Minato Namikaze caused Tsunade's pupils to shrink sharply, and her mind couldn't help but tremble.
Tsunade would naturally recognize Jiraiya's disciple, who was also the former Fourth Hokage of Konoha—Minato Namikaze.
It was precisely because of this understanding that Tsunade reacted in this way.
Meanwhile, the appearance of Minato Namikaze made Tsunade realize that Chen Anxia really had the ability to bring the dead back to life.
However, the resurrected dead are not truly alive.
