"Huh... I'm glad I'm okay, I'm glad I'm okay!"
Hatake Akira wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, glanced at the prompts, and finally felt relieved.
"Father!"
While Hatake Akira was in a daze, Kakashi had already taken two steps at a time and pounced on the newly resurrected Hatake Sakumo.
"Slow down..." Although Hatake Sakumo caught Kakashi who was flying towards him, he had just been resurrected and his body was weak, so he staggered back uncomfortably.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Kakashi got off Hatake Sakumo nervously, then reached out to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth.
The feeling of physical weakness, the burning sensation in the internal organs, and the sense of mental chaos all erupted immediately after Hatake Sakumo was resurrected.
"It's okay, I just feel that my body has been weakened in all aspects. My overall strength is probably only one-fifth of my peak period."
Hatake Sakumo showed a happy smile as if he had survived a disaster, reached out and touched Kakashi's head, and spoke softly to comfort him.
"Don't worry, I can feel that my body still has the potential to recover. Anyway, it's good enough that I can survive."
Hatake Sakumo then looked at Hatake Akira, and couldn't help but find it a little funny when he saw his swollen right face.
This should be the first time that Kakashi made Akira look so miserable.
"Ming, go to Konoha Hospital to find Tsunade. Remember to tell her about my physical condition and ask her to help you remove the bruise on your cheek."
"I know, Father."
Akira Hatake stood up and prepared to go straight to Konoha Hospital.
"Oh, Ming, tell Tsunade that the power of blood elimination in my body is awakening, but it has caused a great burden on my body..."
Hatake Akira raised his eyebrows, then nodded heavily, and disappeared into the Hatake residence in the blink of an eye.
He knew that his plan had been successful, but he didn't know how long the blood-elimination power that had been integrated into his blood could last for Hatake Sakumo's body.
We can only truly understand all of this after Tsunade comes over.
But overall, the harvest this time was quite rich, and Hatake Akira also had a backup plan, enough to save Hatake Sakumo's life.
But tonight is destined to be a sleepless night...
Chapter 47 Anxious Shimura Danzo.
Konoha Hospital, Intensive Care Ward.
The not-so-big ward was now full of people. At a glance, almost all the powerful people in Konoha, big and small, were present.
The leader was Sarutobi Hiruzen, and standing behind him were Shimura Danzo, Utane Koharu, and Mito Kado En.
Further back in the row are Jiraiya, Orochimaru, the clan leaders of each ninja clan, and the young generation of Konoha led by Minato Namikaze.
"Tsunade, Sakumo's physical condition..."
"Teacher, Sakumo is in a critical condition. There is an extremely destructive force destroying his body. Even if the follow-up treatment can curb this situation, Sakumo will not be able to pursue the career of ninja."
"how so?!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen reached out and pinched his forehead, his expression painful.
At this time, Hatake Sakumo was suddenly seriously injured and lost his qualifications to continue to be a ninja. This undoubtedly caused ripples in the internal struggle that had already stabilized.
Glancing at Danzo Shimura who was standing beside him, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt sad. Danzo Shimura's little thoughts were completely written on his face.
"Tsunade, is there any possibility for Sakumo to recover?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked again without giving up.
"Yes!" Tsunade nodded, but then poured cold water on him, "But the possibility is less than one percent."
"This..." Sarutobi Hiruzen pursed his lips, then shook his head and sighed deeply.
The card of Hatake Sakumo is useless. I will be busy from now on...
Taking two steps forward, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat on Hatake Sakumo's hospital bed, reached out to tidy up the quilt for Hatake Sakumo, then looked up at Tsunade.
"Tsunade, what is Sakumo's physical condition like? Was it someone else's doing... or?"
While speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes intentionally or unintentionally swept across Shimura Danzo's cheek, but to his disappointment, he did not see any useful information.
"It's not a conspiracy. Sakumo got himself into this state." Tsunade shook her head helplessly. "I can't understand why Sakumo would do such a dangerous thing."
"What did Sakumo do?"
"After my examination, the power in Sakumo's body that continues to destroy his body falls into the category of blood elimination."
"What? Elimination by blood?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly, and memories of Hatake Sakumo's past flashed through his mind one by one.
He seemed to understand something, but he was even more confused.
Sarutobi Hiruzen remembered that in the past six months or so, Hatake Sakumo had completely given up government affairs and plunged into the secret library of the Hokage Building to read various books, and every now and then he would ask him questions about the changes in the nature of chakra.
He asked the reason, but Hatake Sakumo said that it was to improve Hatake's swordsmanship and to incorporate the power of blood elimination into it.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very interested at the time. After all, he had experienced the power of blood elimination at the hands of Ohnoki.
That kind of power that could destroy everything frightened Sarutobi Hiruzen.
If Hatake Sakumo really succeeds, then a very powerful forbidden technique will once again be born in Konoha, and the village's ninjutsu reserves will be filled with another great general!
But today... Hatake Sakumo used the Blood Elimination Technique on himself, leaving Sarutobi Hiruzen puzzled.
You have already succeeded, why do you have to commit suicide?
This is totally inconsistent with Hatake Sakumo's character, which makes Sarutobi Hiruzen feel that there is a conspiracy behind this.
However, Tsunade's explanation afterwards completely stunned Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Yes, teacher, it is indeed a blood elimination." Tsunade pointed at Hatake Sakumo, "But the blood elimination on Sakumo is different from the Dust Release of the Tsuchikage Ōnoki."
"The Tsuchikage Ōnoki's Dust Release is just a forbidden technique that is superior to the bloodline limit and most ninjutsu, and the blood elimination in Sakumo's body already has some of the characteristics of a bloodline limit."
"This..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned. He suddenly understood why Hatake Sakumo was seeking death. He wanted to have Fukuzawa's descendants!
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who thought he had figured it out, looked down at Hatake Sakumo who was still unconscious, and shook his head with a look of regret.
"It's a good idea, but the result is..."
"Hehe, Sakumo is really bold in wanting to dissolve the power of Blood Elimination into his own blood!" Danzo Shimura finally spoke, and his words were full of sarcasm.
And he soon brought up the topic of the position of Hokage, not caring about Hatake Sakumo's life or death, "Sarutobi, Sakumo is guilty of his own crime, but Konoha cannot stop moving forward, and the matter of the next candidate Hokage should be put on the agenda."
"Master Danzo, Sakumo is not dead yet. Isn't it inappropriate for you to say this now?"
Tsunade is a straightforward person. She doesn't like Shimura Danzo so she directly confronted him, "Also, as long as Sakumo is still alive, he won't resign from the position of reserve Hokage. Unless he commits a serious mistake, you have no right to unilaterally dismiss him!"
"Tsunade, Hatake Sakumo has become a useless man!" Danzo Shimura looked gloomy and stared into Tsunade's cold eyes, with an attitude of not giving an inch.
"No, Sakumo still has a chance!"
"Heh, just for that one percent chance you mentioned before, are you going to plunge Konoha into turmoil?!"
"Konoha still has teachers. Even if the position of candidate Hokage is just a decoration, Konoha will not be in chaos!"
The tit-for-tat between the two made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more upset. He didn't expect that the aftereffects would come so quickly after Hatake Sakumo fell.
And Danzo Shimura is too impatient!
"Enough!" Sarutobi Hiruzen showed his authority, and Tsunade and Shimura Danzo immediately fell silent.
After the situation was under control, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tsunade again, "Tsunade, tell me what that one percent hope is."
“Teacher, the power of blood elimination is indeed very overbearing. Whether it is the body, objects, or ninjutsu, they will fall apart under that power.
But Sakumo managed to withstand this forbidden power with his own body, which can be said to be a miracle.
And where there is a miracle, there must be a blessing. Sakumo has successfully integrated the power of blood elimination into himself. Now he is in a state similar to the beginning of the birth of the bloodline limit. As long as he can hold on, Konoha will have another powerful bloodline family in 30 years! "
hiss……
After Tsunade said this, everyone present gasped.
The most powerful thing about Kekkei Genkai is not its power, but the fact that it can be passed on to future generations through bloodline.
As long as he is a bloodline ninja, his lowest level is Chunin, which almost becomes the end of the life of an ordinary civilian ninja from birth.
Then the potential and importance of the bloodline family is self-evident.
If Hatake Sakumo really succeeds in eliminating the bloodstains that surpass 90% of things in the ninja world and integrating it into his own bloodline, then the future of the Hatake clan and the future of Konoha will be so bright that no one will dare to look directly at it!
"So what?" Shimura Danzo didn't care about that at all. "Even if Hatake Sakumo can survive, it will take him a long time. Can you guarantee what Konoha will be like by then?"
"You...!" Tsunami pointed at Danzo Shimura, obviously very angry about his words.
"Alright Danzo, I will have a special meeting to discuss the preparations for the Hokage, so don't mention it in the ward now."
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't show much emotion. He stood up from the bed and patted Tsunade on the shoulder, "Tsunade, Sakumo is depending on you from now on..."
"I will!"
"Leave the rest of the time to Tsunade and Hatake brothers. We can't do anything here." Sarutobi Hiruzen pushed open the door of the ward, "Gather in the conference room later, and we will discuss how to deal with the aftermath."
Chapter 48 This damn gentle place.
"You two come in."
After Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others left, Tsunade waved to Hatake Akira and Kakashi who were standing outside the door, with a somewhat embarrassed look on her face.
Tsunade had a very good relationship with Hatake Sakumo, but now that Hatake Sakumo was in trouble, Hatake Akira and Kakashi, who were his relatives, could only wait outside the door, which was somewhat unreasonable.
Although this was not Tsunade's fault, she was somewhat responsible emotionally and logically.
If she had been stronger at that time, her family members, Akira Hatake and Kakashi, would not have had to wait in such agony.
"Lady Tsunade, my father..."
Although Kakashi was already a Chunin, his mentality was not yet fully mature at this moment. In addition, the person lying on the hospital bed was his father, which made Kakashi seem very anxious.
"Don't worry Kakashi, Sakumo will be fine." Tsunade still planned to hide the truth, "Go in and see Sakumo, but don't disturb him, he needs to rest now."
"Thank you."
Akira Hatake pulled Kakashi and bowed to Tsunade, then the two entered the ward and stood beside the bed looking at Sakumo Hatake.
