At this moment, in the meeting hall of Konoha Hokage Building.
Danzo is missing his legs and sitting in a wheelchair.
He was leaning on his left hand, struggling to push himself in front of the three Sarutobi.
He yelled with anger on his face.
"have a look!"
"Look, this is Uchiha! This is the consequence of your indulgence, Hiruzen!"
Danzo slapped a piece of official document on the table.
And it is clearly recorded on the paper that [Tian Country] openly accepts the Uchiha clan and recognizes the legitimacy of the other party's newly established [Fire Hidden Village]!
After seeing such news, it's no wonder that Danzo was furious and furious.
"We all know..."
"You know? You know and you're still sitting here?"
"What is this? This is a naked provocation to [Konoha]!"
"The defected Uchiha clan built their own [Fire Hidden Village], and they want to ride on Konoha's head!"
"How can this be allowed? It's simply a shame and a great disgrace!"
Danzo became more and more excited as he spoke, and even wanted to stand up and lash out.
result.
His hand slipped and he almost fell off the wheelchair.
Only then did he remember that his legs were gone...
"Danzo, your legs..."
Mito Kadoyan on the side asked kindly.
"oh oh!"
"I'm fine, that's not what I should be thinking about now!"
Danzo straightened his body and continued firmly with a sullen face.
Xiaochun, who was sleeping next to him, spoke up and asked directly: "Then what do you want to do?"
"Inform the other major ninja villages and join forces to take action. Destroy this 'village of traitors' as quickly as possible!"
Danzo clenched his fists and suggested without mercy.
In his opinion.
The only way is to kill all the defecting Uchiha clansmen in the most cruel way, and to crush that brat Uchiha Natsume to ashes.
Only then can you pour out the pain and humiliation in your heart!
"Can't!"
Sarutobi objected directly.
"Why?"
"Tell the truth! The village today simply cannot afford a war!"
"how come?!!"
"Are you still condoning the Uchiha clan, Hiruzen?" Danzo yelled.
The third generation Sarutobi paused and explained:
"On the night when the Uchiha clan defected, the village's treasury was also stolen..."
"Initial suspicion is that it was also done by someone who defected from Uchiha."
"And now, we only rely on the remaining money in the treasury. Even if it can barely support a war, the village's economy will regress for more than ten years or even collapse..."
"Not to mention contacting several other major ninja villages to help us send troops to fight together."
"Konoha can't afford just the huge expense afterwards!"
Hearing this, Danzo was suddenly confused.
He had been receiving treatment in the medical hospital for the past few days, and he really didn't know about the theft of the vault.
It is enough to show that Sarutobi and the others have done a good job in keeping this matter secret.
"Assholes! These damn traitors actually stole the treasury!"
"However, it is just a mere war fund."
"You can definitely borrow it from the Daimyo Kingdom!"
Danzo gave another suggestion without giving up.
In response, Sarutobi sighed.
"You know, serving the nobles and bureaucrats of the Daming Kingdom is a thankless task."
"Many similar tasks have been assigned to ninjas from the Uchiha clan to complete."
"Therefore, the Daimyo Kingdom has a good impression of the Uchiha clan."
"It is said that there is also a genin named Uchiha Izumi, who is highly appreciated by the daimyo lady."
"So much so that the Daimyo Kingdom has characterized this matter as an internal conflict within the Uchiha clan. They do not agree with the village directly launching a war!"
"We won't pay for it."
"If the village insists on starting a war, the other side will significantly reduce the financial aid to the village next year!"
Hear this.
Danzo was even more dumbfounded.
He never expected that the Daming Mansion in [Fire Country] would have such an attitude!
Those corrupt officials are too cowardly!
"Are we really going to let those traitors continue to be arrogant?"
"Danzo, calm down!"
"Koharu and I have already discussed this matter. We will try our best to send the remaining ninjas of the Uchiha clan to hunt down the traitors."
"You don't have to worry too much about this matter. Just rest in peace and recover!"
Danzo was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"Do you want the Uchiha clan to kill each other?"
"Aren't you afraid that the Uchiha ninja you sent will never come back?"
Danzo questioned loudly.
At the same time, he had another concern that he did not voice out.
In his opinion.
Nowadays, almost none of the remaining ninjas in Uchiha can beat that scary kid Natsume!
Even Itachi should be a little worse!
If we send those miscellaneous soldiers to pursue us, wouldn't it be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?
"Duanzo, we have our own arrangements!"
"Don't forget. That night, it was because of the rash actions of you and the root ninja that Uchiha Natsume was let go!"
"Xiaochun, you..."
Danzo suppressed his blush and felt deeply humiliated.
She was cursing even more in her heart. If it were an old woman like Koharu who faced Natsume's little devil [Susanoh], she would be hacked to death with just one move.
How could she have the chance to scold herself here!
"Danzo, Koharu."
"That's enough! No more fighting..."
Sarutobi shouted and stopped the two of them.
After hearing this, Koharu gave Sarutobi some face and gave in three points.
"I see."
And greeted Mito Menyan:
"Men Yan, let's go inspect the [treasury]!"
"good."
"in addition……"
"Although we can't start a war wantonly, those rebels are indeed too arrogant."
"For the sake of the village's reputation."
"Hiruzhan, we still need to urge the Uchiha ninjas in the village as soon as possible to hunt down those traitors..."
Before leaving, Xiaochun urged again in a deep voice as he moved to bed.
Sarutobi hesitated for a moment, feeling a little unbearable.
But I still have to agree:
"Okay, I will arrange it as soon as possible!"
After that, Koharu and Mito Kadeni left the conference hall, leaving only Sarutobi and Danzo.
…
"Hiruzen, you shouldn't be so gentle!"
"It is impossible to use the Uchiha clan to deal with those traitors!"
"You know the strength of that brat Uchiha Natsume..."
"If we let him grow any longer, the whole village will be in danger of overthrowing!"
Danzo shouted as he stared at Sarutobi.
Hearing this, Sarutobi also became angry.
"Danzo! What about you?"
"Whose responsibility do you think it is that it has come to this point?"
"Go behind my back and order Itachi to massacre the entire Uchiha clan?"
"Are you really just doing it for Konoha?"
“Does it have to be so radical?”
"Coveting their clan's Sharingan is your goal, right?!!"
Danzo was shocked.
"Hiruzen...you saw it all?"
"Hmph! Such an evil arm and those bloody eyes. Do you think I can't see it?"
"Danzo, you are already old, are you still addicted to those evil ways?"
"The will of fire! It can't be carried by those sinful eyes in your hands!"
Sarutobi cursed angrily, which showed that he was really angry.
Danzo was shocked again.
He naturally knew that transplanting the Sharingan like this was definitely not the right way.
But, I am already quite old.
Physically, mentally, chakra...etc., are all going downhill just like Sarutobi.
It is difficult to barely maintain the strength of youth.
Not to mention further improving his strength.
As a last resort, he decided to embark on this path, cooperated with Orochimaru, and extended his claws to the Uchiha clan who possessed the [Izanagi Art].
"You don't have to worry about my affairs!"
Danzo roared angrily, waved his hands and said stubbornly.
"Danzo..."
"Why!"
"In short, please stop interfering in the Uchiha clan's affairs!"
Sarutobi said with rare seriousness.
"Well!"
"Hiruzhan, I don't care about what happens next to the Uchiha clan. But you have to leave the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki to me!"
"This is impossible!"
"You should know that that boy Natsume Uchiha has activated the [Mangekyo Sharingan]!"
"And the 'Mangekyō Sharingan' can forcibly break the seal in the Jinchūriki's body. Once he succeeds, he can control the Nine-Tails again."
"Do you want to stage the 'Nine-Tails Rebellion' again?"
Danzo shouted confidently.
He couldn't hope to collect more Sharingan in a short period of time.
Then the only option is to turn your attention to the powerful Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki.
"I will strengthen my supervision of Naruto, and I will never repeat the tragedy of that year!" Sarutobi gritted his teeth and responded.
Obviously, that night seven years ago has always been a pain in his heart!
"Hiruzen!"
"Danzo!"
Soon, another fierce dispute between the two was heard in the conference hall.
The guards outside the door were also not surprised by this.
Anyway, the Sandaime-sama would flirt with Danzo-sama every now and then.
Don't worry, it will be over soon.
…
…
that's all.
After learning that Uchiha defected, everyone established a new village and settled in [Tian Country].
Except for the [Konoha] side, who took this news very seriously and made a fuss.
The other four major ninja villages also attach great importance to this.
After all, what to say.
The Uchiha clan is the family that controls one of the most famous blood inheritance limits, the Sharingan.
Even if there are only half of the clan members, they should not be underestimated.
It is definitely comparable to the overall strength of many small hidden villages.
Such a force that cannot be ignored.
Is it a war?
Is it and?
Or turn a blind eye?
The hidden villages must also make a decision.
Of course, at this moment, there is a certain Rock Hidden Village in [Earth Kingdom].
He was still so busy that he was dizzy because of the theft of the treasury and the serious injury of loess.
But I don't have time to deal with this problem at the moment.
