Friends who like Naruto have probably heard this sentence, "There are no pure bad guys in Naruto, only unfortunate ones who are forced to die."
I agree with this statement when applied to most people. But if you put it on Shimura Danzo , I personally find it difficult to agree with it. I personally feel that Danzo, in the entire Naruto series, is a selfish, sinister and evil villain.

Compared to people like Uchiha Obito , Madara, Nagato , and even Kakuzu, Deidara , what Danzo did is unacceptable. Obito , Nagato fell into boundless darkness because his close relatives left.
Madara, Orochimaru and others have done many wrong things and bad things. Their ultimate goal is to change the status quo of the ninja world and make the ninja world better so that there will no longer be bloodshed and sacrifice.
These bad guys are so cute, and as the plot of Naruto develops, they are whitewashed step by step. Only the character of Danzo has not been whitewashed, and the author has not given him a chance to whitewash his character.

Let me lead you below to sort out the wrong and bad things that Danzo has done in his life. From these things, I also saw his selfish side, making him my least favorite character.
Mistake 1: Coveting Shisui Sharingan, pushing Uchiha to the point of rebellion
Danzo, as the apprentice of the Second Hokage, failed to learn the high strength of the Second Hokage, nor did he learn from the Second Hokage. He devoted himself to the thoughts of the village, but learned the unique darkness of the Second Hokage.
Uchiha Shisui has great strength and is also a peace-loving person. If Danzo trusts Shisui, he can change the thinking of the Uchiha clan and allow them to continue to serve the Leaf Village.

Unfortunately, Danzo was dark in his heart and did not trust anyone. He relied on Shisui's trust and respect for him, so he chose to attack Shisui sneakily and took away an eye from Shisui.
It was Shisui's death that brought the Uchiha clan to the edge of rebellion, and a duel with the village's senior officials became inevitable.

Mistake Two: Confronting the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen , making the situation in Konoha complicated
Danzo has two major wishes in his life. In addition to improving his personal strength, he is also full of interest in the position of Hokage. Danzo racked his brains to become Hokage, so he was full of hostility and dissatisfaction towards his companion and friend, the Third Hokage.
When the Third Hokage was in power, he would secretly create obstacles to make it difficult for the Third Hokage to govern. On the surface, he is harmonious, but secretly he is wreaking havoc. This is the most sinister side of Danzo's heart.

It can also be seen from here that the situation of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village is getting worse and worse, which is related to Danzo's obstruction. Danzo didn't want the Third Hokage to win the hearts of the people, so he would secretly make trouble for Hiruzen Sarutobi.
The destruction of the Uchiha clan was a great loss to the Leaf Village. The Uchiha people are very powerful and can play a very important role in protecting the village.

Mistake Three: Helping Orochimaru with his "scientific research" made Orochimaru go further and further astray.
In addition to these two wrong things, Orochimaru went further and further on the road of scientific research. I think it also had something to do with Danzo.
If Danzo wants to improve his personal strength, he will be interested in Hashirama Cells and capturing the Sharingan from Shisui.
With his own ability, he is not enough to control these two forces. With Orochimaru, a scientific research madman, he can successfully control these two forces.

With Danzo's instigation and support, Orochimaru became more and more courageous, and was able to conduct more and more research. I think the Third Hokage saw all this, but out of love for his friends and disciples, he chose to turn a blind eye.
If Orochimaru doesn't use human bodies for experiments, maybe the Third Hokage still won't make up his mind to drive Orochimaru out of the village.
Danzo, with the help of Orochimaru, successfully transplanted Hashirama cells and was able to use the Sharingan flexibly. In the battle with Sasuke , Danzo showed his strength, and even Obito was shocked.

When Saai went to see Orochimaru, he brought Danzo's secret order. From this, it can be seen that Danzo and Orochimaru had a very deep entanglement. The two worked together and did many bad things.
Mistake 4: Allowing Pain to destroy Konoha was actually for his own success.
Danzo has been pursuing the position of Hokage his whole life. When he had the opportunity to become Hokage, he put his personal interests first and ignored the safety of the village, not to mention the lives of the villagers.
"You don't have to be Hokage to be recognized by the people in the village; you can become Hokage only if you are recognized by the people in the village." This sentence came from Itachi's mouth, and I personally agree with it very much.

According to Danzo's style of doing things, he would never understand this. No matter what you do, put your own gains and losses and life safety first.
When he was young, he once failed to pass the test of Master Tobirama due to a mistake in his thoughts, and missed the position of Hokage. When Pain invaded Konoha, his attitude of preserving his strength caused him to miss the position and popularity of Hokage again.
The village was invaded by a powerful enemy. Danzang thought about the matter. Instead of working together to repel the enemy, he wanted to be alone and weaken Tsunade 's power.

The place where he lives and works is very suitable for his dark personality. Faced with the tough attitude of Tsunade, Danzo wanted to use Pain's hand to destroy it, and also to destroy the ninjas who supported Tsunade.
Even if Tsunade is not eliminated, her prestige and support rate will drop significantly after this battle. Danzo had his own plan and only benefited himself. He didn't care about the life and death of the villagers. He also spoke boldly and said indifferent words such as "change requires bloodshed and sacrifice."

In addition to these wrong things, Nagato's fall into darkness also has a lot to do with Danzo. Behind this, in addition to Obito, Danzo bewitched Sansho Hanzo and suppressed the Akatsuki organization , which also played a decisive role in Nagato's blackening.
follows the original idea of Hanzo and is ready to win over this force. He also appreciates Yahiko 's ideas and practices. It's a pity that Danzo deceived Hanzo, which made Hanzo become hostile to the Akatsuki organization and plotted against Nagato and Yahiko.

It can be said that Danzo is the ninja world, an unstable existence. Danzo, the Sixth Hokage, died under Sasuke's revenge without even getting hot on his butt.
His death seemed to be full of justice, but in fact it was very embarrassing and meaningless. He could not be compared with the Third Hokage, nor could he exonerate himself with a few impassioned speeches before his death.
"You are the leaves bathing in the sun, and I am the roots in the darkness!" - Danzo's last words

So I personally dislike the character Danzo Shimura and think he is a complete bad guy. What do you think of such a role?
