Seiden Sanzo has the following limited action:

Limited: Target a personality. He gains Cavalry and +3F. Destroy him at the end of this turn.

I target Hida Daizu (basic) with the above ability from two separate Seiden Sanzo's.

Since:

A) The destructions occur at the same trigger

B) Daizu's trait occurs after he is destroyed

Can I:

Resolve the destructions from Seiden Sanzo first and THEN trigger Daizu's trait (on the final destruction effect)?

Thanks!

The first destruction effect will trigger, Daizu dies, returns via trait, second destruction effect triggers, Daizu dies again.

Or, if you choose not to use Daizu's trait after the first destruction, the second destruction would be negated, and there would be no destruction to trigger his trait.
