Chapter 274 - Chapter 274: Goku Destroys Konoha

The area around the Hokage Building was heavily guarded, and many large clans lived there, along with numerous ninjas receiving and handing over missions.

Although it was dusk, the light wasn't completely gone.

So when Danzo shouted, the nearby ninjas' attention was immediately drawn.

In fact, the sound of Goku's Dodon Wave had already caused quite a commotion.

They saw the Anbu ninjas being sent flying by Goku. Both the Anbu and Root ninjas wore masks and similar attire, making it difficult for most to distinguish them.

Then they saw Danzo, a senior Konoha elder, call for help.

Without hesitation, they rushed towards Goku.

Just then, Goku had already dealt with all the Root ninjas who had surrounded him and arrived at Danzo's side.

With one punch, Danzo was blown to pieces in front of everyone.

This further fueled the anger of the Konoha ninjas.

They charged towards Goku while simultaneously sending out emergency distress signals.

They were Konoha, the strongest ninja village! How dare an outsider infiltrate and openly attack one of their elders!

What a disgrace!

Meanwhile, Danzo, who had been blown away by Goku, revived using Izanagi, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Kid, you're still too green."

Goku only arrived in Konoha yesterday and joined the village today, so aside from Asuma and the others who participated in the mission, basically 99% of the Konoha ninjas don't recognize him.

Even if they knew of Goku during meetings, they hadn't had a chance to meet him yet.

Therefore, seeing Goku commit violence, attacking a Konoha ANBU ninja and killing him, a Konoha elder, they will definitely surround and kill him.

In this way, Goku will no longer be facing Root, but the entire Konoha.

Even if Goku is strong, he doesn't believe Goku can take on the entire Konoha single-handedly.

And once anger is ignited, stopping him will be very difficult, even if Tsunade appears.

Even if things eventually stop, who in Konoha would believe the slanderous words of Goku, a brat who joined Konoha only a day ago and clashed with the entire village?

What if something unexpected happened, and Goku became powerful enough to fight the entire village, reaching the level of the First and Second Hokage?

Then he could activate Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, making Goku a loyal subordinate. With such a powerful subordinate, becoming Hokage and leading Konoha to rule the entire ninja world would be just around the corner.

Therefore, this was a three-pronged strategy.

"Fighting, I love it!"

Looking at the Konoha ninjas charging towards him, Goku wasn't in a hurry to chase Danzo, revealing a hint of excitement.

He had already memorized Danzo's ki; he could find Danzo no matter where he hid.

The fact that so many ninjas with various amazing ninjutsu techniques were now willingly challenging him to battle was far more interesting than chasing after Danzo, who only knew Izanagi to delay his death.

As a disciple of the Turtle School, a polite and moral martial artist, he wouldn't force anyone to fight him.

Just like when he first arrived at Fairy Tail and learned that he needed to become an S-rank to challenge the Chairman, or when he learned from Asuma that Tsunade, as Hokage, was too busy to accept challenges, he didn't force them to spar.

Therefore, he was even less likely to challenge all the ninjas of Konoha Village without reason, just to experience the amazing ninjutsu of this world.

However, if the ninjas of Konoha Village actively sought to fight him, that wasn't his problem.

Incidentally, he could also observe the flow of chakra within these ninjas through the Transparent World and then imitate and learn their ninjutsu.

So, facing the Konoha ninjas appearing from all directions, Goku charged forward.

In an instant, chaos ensued.

One Konoha ninja after another rushed towards Goku, only to be sent flying backward at an even faster speed, temporarily incapacitated.

Various ninjutsu and secret techniques bombarded Goku, but he easily dispersed and destroyed them.

Goku charged forward, making himself visible to more Konoha ninjas, who then engaged him in battle.

When Tsunade and Kakashi rushed out of the basement, they saw a scene of utter chaos left by the battle, and numerous Konoha ninjas lying on the ground, groaning and unable to fight.

And the sounds of explosions echoed in the distance.

"What happened?" Everyone was completely bewildered, including the two advisors who followed later, their faces bruised and swollen.

Just as Goku chased Danzo out, Tsunade and the others reacted and tried to give chase, but were stopped by the two advisors and their guards.

They berated Tsunade for bringing in a madman, a troublemaker, and threatened to hold her accountable, even threatening to remove her from her position as Hokage.

Then, unable to bear it any longer, Tsunade took action.

The two advisors were quite strong, and the dozen or so guards were also formidable.

However, when facing Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, along with elite Jonin Kakashi, Asuma, Naruto, Shikamaru, Ibiki, and Shizune, they were all quickly defeated.

They just hadn't expected that in that short time, the outside world would turn out like this.

"Tsunade, look, this is the ninja you summoned. Is he going to destroy the entire Konoha Village?"

Danzo appeared before Tsunade and the others, speaking with a mocking expression.

In truth, he was also quite shocked.

He hadn't expected Goku's strength to be so terrifying, single-handedly sweeping through most of his power.

Perfect.

Perhaps he really possessed the level of the First and Second Hokage.

Therefore, he didn't dare follow, fearing Goku would sense his presence and hunt him down.

Instead, he chose to wait here for Tsunade, and then definitively determine the nature of this incident.

"Danzo, it was you who did this!"

Tsunade, now fully aware of what was happening, angrily punched the ground, creating a large crater.

But she forced herself to calm down, ignoring the subsequent questioning from Danzo and the two advisors.

Instead, he directly used the parts of his body that had been summoned to heal the Konoha ninjas, spreading them out in all directions.

At the same time, he ordered Kakashi and the others: "Quickly catch up with Goku, clear up the misunderstanding, and stop them from fighting!"

Kakashi and the others immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to leave. Danzo tried to stop them, but Tsunade punched him away.

"Old man, I'll play with you."

On the other side, Goku swept through the enemy ranks, unstoppable, and learned various ninjutsu in the process.

Until, a guy wearing a green bodysuit, with a kappa-like hairstyle and thick eyebrows, blocked his way.

"Konoha Power Whirlwind!"

A powerful spinning kick slammed into Goku's head, but Goku easily blocked it and sent the guy flying.

But this ninja didn't fall to the ground like the others.

Instead, he roared: "The Eight Inner Gates Released!

Open the Gate of Rest!

Open the Gate of Life!

Open the Gate of Injury!

Open the Gate of Closure!

Open the Gate of View!"
