For him, the village is protected from the shadows and at any cost: feelings are a weakness and people are pieces on a board. He is patient, reserved and distrustful, and prefers to act through subordinates rather than show himself. He despises what he considers other leaders' softness and believes only someone willing to get their hands dirty can keep Konoha safe. That absolute certainty makes him as useful as he is dangerous.","abilities":[{"name":"Wind Style","text":"He works with the wind nature; the fan scheme is one example, not the style of all its users.","figures":["

The official guide provides context; it does not confirm every detail of this profile.","sources":["naruto-archive"],"tools":[],"stages":[],"sections":[{"h":"Root","t":"Danzō appears at the start of Shippūden as the leader of Root, a branch of ANBU that was supposedly disbanded but keeps operating under his orders. When Kakashi is out of action, Tsunade agrees to add one of his men, Sai, to Team 7, and puts Yamato beside him to keep watch. Root members are trained from childhood to suppress their emotions and have no name or past of their own. Danzō weighs in on the village council, criticizes Tsunade and defends a hard line against the Akatsuki and against Sasuke. For Naruto and Sakura he is at first a stranger; for the reader, an uncomfortable presence who always seems to know more than he says.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-285","pos":285},{"h":"Sai's orders","t":"During the mission to the Tenchi Bridge, Sai receives secret instructions from Danzō. He leaves the team to offer Orochimaru a deal on his boss's behalf: Root would help the Sannin prepare another attack on Konoha. It soon emerges that the deal was a cover and that Danzō's real order was to assassinate Sasuke. Sai, who is beginning to grow fond of his teammates, does not carry it out and asks Danzō to let him stay on Team 7. This episode shows the character's method: he uses others as tools, plays both sides and does not explain his goals even to his own agents. Sai cannot speak about him either, because a seal on his tongue prevents it.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-310","pos":310},{"h":"Pain's attack","t":"When Pain invades Konoha, the council agrees that Tsunade should call Naruto, who is training on Mount Myōboku. Danzō kills the messenger to prevent it, convinced the jinchūriki must not fall into the Akatsuki's hands. While the village is razed, he keeps Root held back and out of the fight, hoping Tsunade will fail so he can take the post. After Konoha's destruction, with Tsunade in a coma, the Land of Fire's feudal lord names him Sixth Hokage on a provisional basis. One of his first orders is to kill Sasuke if the opportunity arises. Danzō also orders Sai to watch Naruto and seeks to capture Kabuto to heal his arm and his eye.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-454","pos":454},{"h":"The Kage Summit","t":"Danzō travels to the meeting of the five Kage, in the Land of Iron, as Konoha's representative. On the way he is ambushed, and for the first time he reveals a Sharingan and sweeps the attackers away with wind techniques. At the summit he reports that the Akatsuki's leader presents himself as Madara Uchiha and proposes that the alliance against the organization be placed under his command. However, Ao, the Mizukage's escort, discovers with his Byakugan that Danzō is manipulating Mifune, the moderator, with a Sharingan hidden under his bandage: Shisui Uchiha's eye. Cornered, Danzō admits the deception and is placed under watch. When Sasuke bursts into the meeting, he takes advantage of the chaos to escape with his escorts.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-465","pos":465},{"h":"The arm of Sharingan","t":"Tobi neutralizes Danzō's escorts and leaves the way clear for Sasuke. Danzō uncovers his right arm: it is covered in grafted Sharingan and the First Hokage's cells. Facing Sasuke, he admits that Konoha ordered Itachi to exterminate the Uchiha clan and that he was behind that decision. Sasuke crushes him with Susanoo, but Danzō reappears unharmed again and again. Tobi discovers why: he is using Izanagi, a technique that rewrites reality for a few seconds at the cost of closing one of the eyes forever. When Sasuke presses him, Danzō also resorts to Hashirama's Wood Style. The fight is a countdown: each eye that closes takes one life from him.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-479","pos":479},{"h":"Danzō's end","t":"Sasuke tricks Danzō with a genjutsu that makes him believe Izanagi is still active, and wounds him badly. Desperate, Danzō takes Karin hostage, but Sasuke runs her through to reach him. Dying, he remembers his life: he was a student of the Second Hokage alongside Hiruzen, and when their teacher needed a volunteer to save the team, Hiruzen offered himself first and was chosen as successor. From then on he lived in his rival's shadow. In a last act, he activates a seal that turns his body into a trap to take his enemies with him, but Sasuke and Tobi escape. Danzō dies without ever having been recognized as Hokage.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-481","pos":481},{"h":"What he left behind","t":"Danzō's death does not close his story: several secrets come to light afterward. In the middle of the war, Kabuto remembers his childhood at Nonō's orphanage and reveals that Danzō forced that woman to spy for Root, set her against Kabuto himself through deception and turned him into a spy without an identity. That plan is one of the roots of everything Kabuto did later. At the same time, the vacancy he leaves in the post of Hokage allows Kakashi to be proposed for it. Sai, who grew up under his orders, carries on in Team 7 with the bonds Danzō had taught him to deny. Root, without a head, loses its weight within the village.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-584","pos":584}],"facts":[{"k":"Estado","v":"Alive","lvl":1},{"k":"Estado","v":"Deceased","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-481","pos":481},{"k":"Cumpleaños","v":"January 6","lvl":0},{"k":"Edad","v":"72–73","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-281","pos":281},{"k":"Altura","v":"170 cm","lvl":0},{"k":"Rango","v":"Leader of Root","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-284","pos":284},{"k":"Rango","v":"Sixth Hokage (provisional)","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-450","pos":450},{"k":"Afiliación","v":"Konohagakure · Root","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-284","pos":284},{"k":"Seiyū","v":"Hiroshi Itō","lvl":0},{"k":"Doblaje latino","v":"Alfonso Ramírez (1st voice) · Martín Soto (2nd voice)","lvl":0}],"techniques":[{"name":"Wind Style","kind":"naturaleza","lvl":1,"article":"futon","ch":"naruto-456","kindLabel":"Naturaleza","pos":456},{"name":"Sharingan","kind":"kekkei-genkai","lvl":1,"article":"sharingan","ch":"naruto-459","kindLabel":"Kekkei genkai","pos":459},{"name":"Kotoamatsukami","kind":"tecnica","lvl":1,"article":"kotoamatsukami","ch":"naruto-459","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":459},{"name":"Izanagi","kind":"tecnica","lvl":1,"article":"izanagi","ch":"naruto-479","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":479},{"name":"Wood Style","kind":"kekkei-genkai","lvl":1,"article":"mokuton","ch":"naruto-478","kindLabel":"Kekkei genkai","pos":478},{"name":"Tongue seal","kind":"tecnica","lvl":1,"article":"fuinjutsu","ch":"naruto-452","kindLabel":"Técnica","pos":452}],"quote":{"t":"A shinobi must hold up the village from the shadows, as the roots hold up the tree.","lvl":1,"ch":"naruto-481","pos":481},"debut":{"ch":"naruto-281","ep":"shippuden-32"}}}}
