"Remember, we have lost a powerful combat force."
After saying this, all the Uchiha clan members looked at each other, and some of them focused on Uchiha Itachi.
Even if he decides to rebel, he can't do it now.
Once Shisui dies, they will lack a powerful combat force. If they cannot control the top management of Konoha immediately, it will only cause huge casualties.
Therefore, they now need an internal response who can deliver information...
Uchiha Fugaku glanced at Itachi who was silent, with some disappointment in his eyes.
At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart: "Let's talk to Itachi some time. No matter what, family is our root."
He actually knew very well that Uchiha Shisui must have been killed by his roots. Maybe his outstanding son saw that scene with his own eyes.
But even so, Fugaku still stopped the tribe's riot.
First of all, he did not believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen was involved in this matter.
After all, he is also a strong man called Nin Xiong, so he would do such a thing?
What's more, Shisui has always been close to the Hokage faction and has always hoped to ease the relationship between the village and Uchiha.
Fugaku couldn't figure out his motive for killing Shisui.
Besides, it's not that difficult to kill a few root ninjas now.
But the real problem lies in the aftermath.
Several root ninjas were just pawns to deal with Shisui's body.
There must be someone else who killed Shisui!
Danzo!
If these ninjas are all killed, who can prove that they killed Shisui?
Today's police force has a very bad reputation, which naturally affects the reputation of their Uchiha clan.
If some rats hiding in the shadows make a fuss about this matter, neither ninjas nor civilians will stand on their side.
There must be evidence.
Thinking of this, Fugaku turned to look at Itachi: "Have Shisui's remains and those members of the Roots been brought back to the clan?"
As the leader of the clan, he just lacks courage and is indecisive. He is not a fool.
Although he didn't intend to break up with each other, he wouldn't let him go so easily.
"……Um."
Uchiha Itachi nodded and led them towards the place of detention.
After Fugaku and his party saw the miserable-looking root ninjas with bruises on their faces, they immediately looked at Itachi with strange eyes.
"This guy doesn't seem so heartless."
Unknowingly, the clan members recognized Uchiha Itachi a little more.
The root ninja of the Aburame clan heard the sound and slightly raised his bruised eyelids.
When he saw Uchiha Fugaku and others, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Still can't escape..."
Several other root ninjas were also stunned.
Although they did not kill Shisui, they knew about Lord Danzo's eye-catching plan and received orders to hunt down Shisui.
Once these secrets are discovered, Danzo-sama's situation...
In a daze, the root ninjas all remembered Danzo-sama's very philosophical words.
"My heart is like a tree. The more the tree yearns for the light in the heights, the more its roots will move downward, toward the soil and into the depths of darkness."
Dense branches and leaves bathe in the sun, while underground roots extend into the darkness.
Since they joined the roots, they have dedicated their bodies and minds to the roots of Konoha.
Not only because he was given the tongue-killing technique, but also for the future of Konoha.
"Lord Danzo, I finally understand what you mean."
The Aburame ninja and the other root ninja gritted their teeth.
In an instant, Fugaku felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
But when he quickly rushed in front of the root members, the sounds of these guys had completely disappeared.
Uchiha Yashiro squatted down and lifted the mask of the root ninja.
There was blood and foam flowing from the corners of their mouths, and they were obviously poisoned to death.
"You actually prepared poison in your mouth..."
Fugaku couldn't help but take a breath, his anger had nowhere to vent. He didn't expect that the person Danzo trained was so ruthless that he would commit suicide without hesitation.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Uchiha Yashiro turned around and asked Fugaku.
The eyes of other Uchiha clan members also focused on Fugaku.
"First take these people's bodies to the police force, and I will go find the Third Hokage."
Fugaku suppressed the anger in his heart, and after some calm analysis, he ordered.
No matter what, it still depends on Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude.
…………
At the same time, inside the Hokage Building.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, wearing Hokage robes, stood in front of the window and had dismissed all the ANBU.
Click!
"Hiruzhan, what did you ask me to do?"
There was a sound of opening the door, and Danzo Shimura's face was livid, and his tone was a little unkind.
He just bandaged it briefly, and now he was in a hurry to find Orochimaru to replace his arm.
And the masked man who took away Shisui's right eye and escaped will also have a reward on the black market!
"Hiruzen! Where is my root ninja? And..."
Danzo was about to take the lead, but was interrupted by Hiruzen Sarutobi: "You killed Shisui, where are his eyes now?"
It doesn't matter whether Uchiha Shisui dies or not.
The key is that the Mangekyou Sharingan and other gods must not fall into the hands of Danzo.
"Eye?"
Danzo's expression was startled, and he frowned instinctively.
One eye was taken away by the masked man, but the other eye should still be with Shisui.
Suddenly, Danzo seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly his face lit up with joy.
Could it be said that the root ninja he sent out has succeeded?
Thinking about it carefully, Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned Shisui's name when he called him here, and he obviously already knew about his eye-catching thing.
And the root ninja he sent out has not returned yet, and he may have been detained by Hiruzen!
"Hiruzen!"
Danzo tapped his cane excitedly: "You should give me the eyes of Root Ninja and Shisui!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
What does it mean to give Shisui's eyes back to him?
Aren't those pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan in Danzo's hands?
Didn't he kill Shisui and then take away his two eyes?
For a moment, Hiruzen suddenly felt an ominous premonition.
"Are you serious? Shisui's eyes are not in your hands?"
"Um?"
Danzo was also stunned, but he quickly came to his senses.
here you go! It’s not in vain that I taught them the will of the root! He didn't even speak!
But after thinking for a moment, Danzo decided to confess to Hiruzen: "Shisui's eyes are in the hands of the root ninjas you captured."
But who knew that as soon as Danzo said these words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed on the spot.
"Let me ask you again, are you sure you don't have Shisui's eyes in your hand?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became serious and he asked again.
