But Di Yan's words truly hit her soft spot.
The mere intelligence that Danzo possessed a Mangekyo Sharingan was already astonishing enough.
If she could also know its specific abilities, and even uncover the truth behind the Uchiha clan's extermination night and some hidden secrets... its value was indeed immeasurable.
It's just... touching hands?
This was too bizarre.
Was it some unknown Ninjutsu?
A trigger condition for a Genjutsu?
Or was this Emperor simply a lecherous eccentric?
After a moment of contemplation, Tsunade suddenly snorted coldly.
The previously grave expression on her face gave way to a hint of the 'Lady Tsunade's' arrogance and provocation.
"Alright! I'd like to see what kind of trick you, the Emperor of the Land of Fire, are really playing!"
With that, she actually extended her fair, yet terrifyingly strong, right hand to the center of the table.
Her palm was facing upwards, as if not inviting a touch.
But rather, ready to flip over and punch the person in front of her through the wall at any moment.
"Lady Tsunade!"
Shizune exclaimed, her face full of disapproval.
Di Yan looked at Tsunade's 'if you dare touch me, I'll cripple you' stance and couldn't help but chuckle.
He shook his head, not reaching out immediately.
"Hokage-sama seems to have misunderstood. I do not have any special fetishes."
He paused, his tone carrying a hint of elusive profundity, "It's just that some confirmations require physical contact to complete."
This statement made Tsunade roll her eyes again.
She just thought this guy was a lecher.
She was well aware of the attractiveness of her bosom to men, so she didn't think much of touching hands.
Besides, she was already at this age.
It was no exaggeration to say that, in her eyes, Di Yan was pretty much like her nephew or niece.
Di Yan said no more, slowly extending his hand.
His fingers were long and slender, showing the pampered upbringing of a ruler, but they also seemed to contain some peculiar power.
Under Shizune's extremely tense gaze, Di Yan's fingertips lightly touched Tsunade's palm.
With one touch... they seemed to stick together, even beginning to slowly move... "Hiss..."
Tsunade glared at him, "Don't move around, it tickles!"
Di Yan smiled slightly, feeling the smoothness and softness in his hand.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, Tsunade's Strength of a Hundred Seal was a good thing.
Her skin was even softer than Ino's and Hinata's.
He would have Tsunade teach his women to practice it that day... Of course, Di Yan didn't truly have any fetishes.
On one hand, he was reasonably revealing Danzo's intelligence to Tsunade; on the other hand, he was lowering Tsunade's threshold for him.
This time it was hands, so next time it could be her waist? Her legs? Her feet?
"Alright!"
That ticklish feeling made Tsunade feel flustered.
She roughly shook off Di Yan's 'perverted' hand, "Can you speak now?"
Di Yan took the opportunity to withdraw his hand, the gentle smile on his face seeming to deepen slightly.
"Alright," Di Yan's tone became even more composed, "Then, in exchange, I shall tell you."
He leaned forward slightly, lowering his voice, as if afraid of being overheard by a third person.
"The Mangekyo Sharingan that Danzo Shimura transplanted from Uchiha Shisui, its ability is called... Kotoamatsukami."
"It is hailed as the 'strongest Genjutsu,' capable of freely manipulating others' will and altering their perception without being detected."
Just one sentence made Tsunade and Shizune's pupils suddenly contract, their faces drained of color!
Manipulate will?
Alter perception?
At this moment, all the doubts seemed to have an answer.
Why could Danzo secretly gather so many supporters?
Why did some originally neutral clans' attitudes become ambiguous?
If Danzo truly used this ability at a critical moment... this was no longer just troublesome.
This was a nightmarish ability capable of overturning everything!
Tsunade immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
She finally understood.
What Di Yan said about 'Konoha might not be able to take down Danzo' was by no means an exaggeration!
Di Yan watched Tsunade's drastically changing expression, slowly leaned back in his chair, and continued:
"Now, Hokage-sama, do you still wish to hear about Danzo's other preparations?"
... 56 Tsunade, you don't want Danzo to be Hokage either, do you?
At this moment, Tsunade looked at the serious Di Yan, and she frowned slightly:
"What else do you know, and why should I believe that everything you say is true?"
Di Yan admired Tsunade's angry expression and slowly spoke:
"I swear by the name of the Emperor of the Land of Fire, every word is from my heart."
Seeing Di Yan speak earnestly, Tsunade fell silent.
She stared intently at this Emperor, whom she considered a mere child, and gestured with her eyes for Di Yan to continue.
Although Tsunade still harbored doubts in her heart.
The threat of the Mangekyo made her willing to continue listening.
At this point, Di Yan raised his hand and pointed at Shizune, "Shizune, you go out first. I need to have a private chat with Hokage-sama."
"Me out?" Shizune naturally refused, "Your Majesty, I must always be by Lady Tsunade's side."
In Shizune's opinion, this Emperor was definitely not a good person.
Leaving Lady Tsunade here... she was a thousand times uneasy.
Di Yan said nothing more, glancing at Tsunade.
Tsunade thought for a moment, staring straight at Di Yan.
Based on her perception, there wasn't much Chakra fluctuation from Di Yan.
From this, it seemed his strength was mediocre.
He posed no threat to her.
So Tsunade waved her hand, "Shizune, you go out first. Don't worry about me, I am the Hokage!"
She didn't think this guy could do anything to her.
Even if he truly was a pervert and tried to get handsy.
She could send him flying with one punch.
"I... I understand, Hokage-sama!"
Shizune still wanted to say something.
But under Tsunade's insistence, she had no choice but to leave with a stern face. When the door closed.
Clack... When the door closed, Tsunade immediately questioned Di Yan, "Now can you speak?"
Di Yan nodded, "Lady Tsunade, do you know that Danzo collected many Sharingan on the night of the Uchiha clan's extermination?"
Tsunade: "What did Danzo need so many Sharingan for?"
Di Yan answered indirectly, continuing:
"You know that Konoha's Wood Release experiment wasn't unsuccessful."
"But do you know what Danzo did with Senju Hashirama's cells in private?"
Grandfather's cells?
How dare Danzo... Tsunade's breathing quickened slightly.
That guy Danzo was actually so deranged.
She knew about Konoha's Wood Release experiment.
She even knew that Yamato was a Wood Release Ninja... But what did Danzo do with Grandfather's cells?
Absolutely unforgivable.
Just as Tsunade was anticipating Di Yan's next answer.
Di Yan 'clacked' his teacup down, spreading his hands, "Lady Tsunade, the next part is paid content."
Tsunade was stunned for a moment, "Pa... Paid for what?"
She immediately reacted, becoming furious, "I just let you touch my hand!"
Di Yan's expression remained unchanged, "The fee for touching hands was only for the Mangekyo ability of the youth."
"The next part, regarding Danzo's purpose for collecting Sharingan, and what that guy did with Senju Hashirama's cells."
"So it requires separate payment... or rather, it won't be very expensive."
"Little Tsunade, you will soon know all of Danzo's intelligence, absolutely fair and square."
"You..."
Tsunade was fuming.
She reached out and directly grabbed Di Yan's collar, poised to punch him.
Di Yan had an expression of 'a dead pig doesn't fear boiling water':
"Go ahead and hit me. I am the Emperor of the Land of Fire. Anyway, you wouldn't dare kill me; at most, you'd beat me up to vent your anger."
"But if you don't know Danzo's intelligence, you might be controlled by Danzo's Mangekyo."
"If Danzo's coup succeeds, many people in Konoha will die."
