But he still obediently retreated, closing the door behind him.
Just as Lady Tsunade was filled with doubt and surprise.
Di Yan had already stood up and returned to his seat.
He merely wiped his mouth, as if nothing had happened.
"Transaction complete." Di Yan nodded solemnly, his expression becoming a little more serious. "So, as you wish."
Ignoring Lady Tsunade's murderous gaze across the table, Di Yan spoke eloquently:
"Danzo collects Sharingan not only for research and to enhance his own power."
Watching Lady Tsunade rise from the table with an angry expression and sit back down opposite him, Di Yan said earnestly:
"His primary goal is to balance and suppress the rejection and erosion caused by the First Hokage Senju Hashirama's cells, which are transplanted into his right arm."
Tsunade suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with shock and fury:
"His right arm…"
"Exactly."
Di Yan's tone was calm, yet he dropped a bombshell: "He used Orochimaru's techniques to transplant a large number of First Generation cells into his right arm and right shoulder."
"That arm can now be considered a miniature 'Senju Hashirama clone'."
"Not only can it continuously generate a massive amount of Chakra, but it can also use… Wood Release."
"And the Sharingan's Yin Release Chakra can, to a certain extent, suppress the excessive activity of the First Generation cells."
"Maintaining a dangerous balance. This is also why he is so obsessed with collecting Sharingan."
Tsunade felt a chill in her heart as she listened.
She could almost imagine how hideous and terrifying Danzo's arm must look.
Forcibly combining the power of her grandfather with the power of his mortal enemy, the Uchiha… What blasphemy and madness!
"As for what he does with the Sharingan…"
Di Yan paused, looking at Tsunade's increasingly serious eyes, and slowly said:
"Besides strengthening himself, the most important experimental product… you should have heard of a secret Uchiha technique… a secret technique that can reverse genjutsu and the reality of death."
With each word Di Yan spoke, Tsunade's face grew paler.
The anger and chill in her heart intensified.
She hadn't expected Danzo to secretly conduct so many inhumane and blasphemous experiments on the deceased.
And he had already accumulated such terrifying power!
Kotoamatsukami to control the Konoha Higher-Ups, a Sharingan arm, and Wood Release… The success rate of this coup.
It was far higher than she had imagined!
After Di Yan finished speaking, he watched Tsunade, who was in a state of immense shock and anger, at his leisure.
"So, Hokage-sama, do you wish to delve deeper?"
"For example, what is the secret technique that reverses the reality of death?"
Di Yan smiled, poured himself another cup of tea, and took a small sip.
"For the next piece of information, we can discuss… a new payment method?"
"Hmph…"
Tsunade slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, calming herself down.
After a moment of hesitation, she bent down and put on her shoes.
Di Yan secretly thought it was a pity.
This woman seemed to be intentionally guarding against him, preventing him from seeing the full view.
At this moment, Tsunade slowly stood up and asked:
"As you said, Danzo transplanted all those Sharingan onto that right arm, didn't he?"
Di Yan nodded slightly, "Yes!"
Then, Tsunade turned and left without looking back.
"Hey… do you really not want to know?" Di Yan was astonished. "If you don't know what secret technique it is, you won't be able to kill Danzo in one go."
"And this time it's not too much… just a little touch… of your leg… that's all…"
Boom… Tsunade left completely, kicking the door to pieces as she went.
She walked out amidst the dumbfounded stares of Uchiha Izumi and Shizune at the entrance… Di Yan's eyelid twitched.
He had no choice but to swallow the rest of his sentence.
This woman has a really explosive temper; she can't be teased… Afterwards, Tsunade left the inn with Shizune without looking back.
She was fuming on the way, but remained silent.
Shizune looked at Lady Tsunade's serious face, not daring to breathe loudly.
She had never seen Lady Tsunade so angry.
Shizune asked with concern: "Hokage-sama, what's wrong with you?"
Tsunade frowned slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
But she remained silent, not responding to her.
This made Shizune feel even more uneasy.
Did that young emperor do something to Lady Tsunade?
But that shouldn't be the case.
With Di Yan's pretty boy looks, Lady Tsunade could beat him ten times over… But Tsunade's goal was clear.
She led Shizune directly to the village's casino.
Shizune looked bewildered.
Why are we going to the casino again?
We really have no more money to lose… Hokage-sama… But what Shizune didn't expect was.
This time they went in quickly and came out quickly.
Not long after.
Tsunade and Shizune left the casino.
But at this moment.
Tsunade's face grew even gloomier.
In contrast, Shizune was beaming with excitement.
She was clutching bundles of cash in her arms.
Shizune felt incredibly happy.
Since she was old enough to understand, how many years had it been since Lady Tsunade won so much money?
Lady Tsunade was clearly betting randomly just now, but she won every single hand… Now, Lady Tsunade can finally get rid of the nickname "Sucker"… Shizune thought to herself… Scoop.
57 Tsunade's Judgment; The Konoha Twelve?
After leaving the casino, Shizune clutched the heavy bundles of cash, her cheeks flushed with excitement.
She could almost hear her heart pounding happily.
She trotted to catch up with Tsunade, her voice cheerful:
"Lady Tsunade! Did you see? We were so lucky today!"
"Now we can pay off a lot of our debts, and we can still…"
She hadn't finished her sentence.
When she was cut off by Tsunade's unusually grim expression.
Only then did Shizune belatedly notice.
Tsunade's profile was tense, her brows tightly furrowed.
In those eyes that were usually either lazy or bold.
Now churned a sharpness and gravity that Shizune rarely saw, almost icy.
This was certainly not the expression of someone who had just won a huge sum of money.
The journey was silent.
The oppressive silence made the money in Shizune's arms seem to lose its warmth.
The joy in her heart gradually sank.
Replaced by a growing unease.
It wasn't until they were almost in front of the Hokage building that Tsunade suddenly stopped and turned around.
Her gaze swept over the glaring pile of banknotes in Shizune's arms.
A flicker of disgust passed through her eyes, immediately replaced by a deeper solemnity.
"Shizune," Tsunade's voice was low and decisive, without a hint of the fluctuation of winning money, "Immediately notify the two Advisory Elders, Nara Shikaku, Jonin Squad Leader Kakashi, and all Konoha Higher-Ups currently in the village."
"Tell them, emergency meeting, gather immediately at the Hokage's office!"
Shizune's heart sank sharply.
All joyful thoughts about "winning money" and "getting rid of the sucker title" were instantly shattered.
She had followed Tsunade for many years and was all too familiar with this tone.
This was not a discussion; it was an order.
It was the demeanor that the Fifth Hokage only displayed when facing extremely serious circumstances.
"Yes! Lady Tsunade!"
Shizune instantly reined in all her emotions, instinctively standing at attention and responding.
She even forgot to put down the money she was holding in her arms.
Without any hesitation, she immediately turned around.
And ran off at top speed.
