Starting as the Weakest Hilichurl, I Capture Furina

When Lu Feng woke up, he had become the Shadow of Konoha: Shimura Danzo!

It was just before the Nine-Tails' attack, and he was preparing to move against the Uchiha clan and clear away obstacles to the future Root.

Looking at the sinister face in the mirror and his bandaged right eye, Lu Feng immediately slapped himself.

Why be the scapegoat of Konoha? Why do the dirty work of purging his comrades?

In this life, he would stand in the sunlight and become a true hero of Konoha!

So, at a high-level meeting in the Hokage Tower,

faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's suspicions, Danzo (Lu Feng) publicly disbanded the fledgling Root and handed over all the ANBU's authority.

"Hiruzen, from now on, Konoha will have no roots, only a great tree basking in the Will of Fire!"

With the Nine-Tails' attack looming, he kicked open Minato Namikaze's front door. "Minato, your wife is about to give birth. I'll protect the village for you, so go be with her!"

To mend the rift with the Uchiha, he personally pushed for Fugaku to become the Hokage's advisor.

Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Danzo, what are you really up to? You've changed!"

Orochimaru: "Lord Danzo, the light in your eyes shines brighter than the sun."

Uchiha Fugaku: "My dear friend! I entrust Konoha's future to you!"

Years later, when the Otsutsuki arrived, they saw Konoha united as one behind Danzo. Standing at the very front, he smiled faintly. "Do you see, Hiruzen? This is the true Will of Fire."
