Roar!

A sudden roar echoed through Konoha, but the massive roar encountered an inexplicable ripple, instantly confining the sound to a certain range.

In other words, the roar of the beast did not spread outwards at all.

Hokage Meeting Room Konoha.

The atmosphere in the Meeting Room has completely changed. With Shimura Danzō revealing his Wood Style Cells and Sharingan, the Hokage leadership has completely lost the trust of the ninja.

Left with no other choice, the three most authoritative and capable members of the Sannin –Tsunade Sannin, Jiraiya Uchiha Yoru– took charge of the meeting.

"I, Uchiha Yoru, hereby formally impeach the Third Hokage and his so-called high-ranking officials. There are many suspicious points surrounding the events in the Land of Lightning. I even suspect that the death of the Second Hokage was questionable!"

"You!" Everyone stared at Uchiha Yoru in shock. It had to be said that this was a ruthless move.

Even Tsunade glared fiercely at Uchiha Yoru, but Uchiha Yoru just sneered, "Since you insist on pinning the Nine-Tails' Rampage on the Uchiha, why should I hold back?"

"During the trip to the Land of Lightning, the Second Hokage's bodyguard escaped unscathed, while the Second Hokage himself remained in the Land of Lightning."

"As a ninja! He actually abandoned his mission and chose to leave the Second Hokage behind. I don't know what could possibly cause the Second Generation, who could Flying Thunder God Space-Time Ninjutsu, to perish in the Land of Lightning."

At this point, Uchiha Yoru around, his gaze finally settling on Hatake Kakashi, and he directly mocked, "I remember during the Third Shinobi War, Konoha's White Fang suffered a terrible fate because his comrades abandoned their mission. So I want to ask you all, no matter the reason, what kind of person abandons the Second Hokage and chooses to flee back to the Land of Fire?"

"Useless!" Uchiha Yoru's voice echoed, shocking everyone. At that moment, all eyes turned to Hatake Kakashi.

However, Hatake Kakashi remained silent as he looked at the Third Hokage, while Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and looked up at Uchiha Yoru in the face of this betrayal and abandonment.

"Uchiha Yoru, your methods are ruthless enough."

A hoarse voice came from the old man's mouth, but Uchiha Yoru smiled calmly, "Ruthless? Not as ruthless as you guys."

"Since the Third Hokage was able to isolate the Uchiha Clan from the entire Konoha Village with just the Sharingan in the Nine-Tails' eye, then I have the same question for you! Please answer it, Third, and don't say you didn't know Third Root."

"First, why didn't Root appear during the Nine-Tails' Rampage? Aren't Root, who possess the Sharingan and Wood Release, more suspicious? I'd even like to know if the so-called Nine-Tails' Rampage was all orchestrated by you old guys, just so that the Third and his superiors could return to power!"

"Secondly, when the Second Generation of the Land of Lightning perished, why did all of you, as his guards, escape and even rise to high positions? I now strongly suspect that the Second Hokage of the Land of Lightning was merely a coward, or even that you were only after the Hokage's position!"

Uchiha Yoru's two consecutive questions caused everyone's expressions to change drastically. None of the ninjas present were fools. The Nine-Tails' Rampage seemed to be more suspicious of the Root, and the ultimate loss was indeed the death of the Fourth Hokage, while the beneficiary was that these old guys regained power.

He hasn't wanted to relinquish power for so many years! If Uchiha Yoru hadn't pressed him so relentlessly, this situation wouldn't have happened.

Another incident involving the Second Hokage is still White Fang in our minds! The Third Hokage and others, as the Hokage's guards, abandoned the Second Generation, whom they were supposed to protect, and escaped themselves. What kind of behavior is that?

If you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext!

Jiraiya looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had reached this point, and shook his head. "Old man, did you ever imagine this day would come?"

"Report! All the elites from the Anbu and Root are gone!"

Just then, a Konoha Jonin rushed in in a panic and hurriedly reported that everyone's expression froze at that moment—the elites of Root and Anbu were nowhere to be seen!

At that moment, Jiraiya broke out in a cold sweat Jiraiya heard this. When he turned around, he saw the Third Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been silent all along, staring coldly at Uchiha Yoru, his eyes looking at him as if he were a dead man.

Even Tsunade was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and looked at the Third with an incredulous expression.

"As expected of the Third Hokage boasts of being the strongest."

Just then, Uchiha Yoru suddenly clapped and smiled. However, at that moment Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly stood up, his eyes gleaming with a cold light as he stared at Uchiha Yoru.

"Uchiha Yoru, I must admit your abilities. In just three years, you have developed to a point where even I must be wary. But today, even if it costs me my life, I will rid the village of this scourge."

At this point, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Uchiha Shisui, who had also awakened the Mangekyo, and said in a hoarse voice, "I never expected you to be so well-hidden, to have even a pair of Mangekyo. So...!"

"Kakashi! I trusted you so much, why did you betray the village!" Suddenly, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Hatake Kakashi, his voice filled with accusation, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

"Kakashi! I've always believed you were a promising junior, and I even considered training you to be the next Minato! Why did you...!"

It must be said that even at this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi still tried to use his usual methods to turn people against him, but he was facing the level- Hatake Kakashi.

Hatake Kakashi Third and said in a deep voice, "Third Hokage, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I was ordered to approach the Uchiha, and all the information I gathered was for the sake of the village. On the other hand, Hokage-sama, everything you've done is extremely disappointing."

"And tonight too!"

At this point, Hatake Kakashi silently surveyed the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Most of the Jōnin from the Yamanaka, Akimichi, and Nara clans are absent from this Jonin Meeting. From the moment I entered the meeting room, I knew that the die was cast and had to be cast; reform requires bloodshed."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand trembled slightly. He took a deep breath without making a sound and looked at Jiraiya and Tsunade.

"The Uchiha Clan is plotting a coup. Jiraiya, Tsunade, I now urge you to prioritize the greater good."

However, what happened at this moment shocked everyone. Tsunade stared at Jiraiya and said, "Jiraiya, Kakashi is right. Konoha is rotten, and reform requires bloodshed."

"The difference is that we've minimized the bloodshed!" With a crack of his knuckles, Tsunade this scene, Jiraiya immediately shook his head at the Third Hokage with a wry smile.

"Old man, you saw it too, and this time you really went too far with the Sharingan and Wood Release!" Even Jiraiya fell silent at this point.

This scene made Hiruzen Sarutobi ashen, but Uchiha Yoru waved his hand and laughed, "Alright, Third, stop acting. I must say, your performance today was truly excellent."

Uchiha Yoru waved his hand, looked at the Third Hokage, and squinted, gazing out the window of the conference room at the village.

"Listen, the village is so quiet. The Jonin Meeting has mobilized all the elite Uchiha Clan, and they're under a barrier. Tsk tsk."

Uchiha Yoru shook his head, but the smile on his face grew colder and colder. However, the others were not fools, and they all became restless after hearing these words.

"You!" Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed drastically, his cloudy eyes filled with shock. How could the other party know? He knew this matter could not possibly be leaked.

"Hiruzen!"

Just then, among the elders held captive by the Uchiha Clan's elite, Mitokado Homura raised his head, revealing a look of frustration.

"Hiruzen, I'm sorry!"

A single sentence instantly reversed the situation, and Hiruzen Sarutobi deathly pale. This time, he was truly panicked and even felt dizzy and almost fainted.

However, facing everyone, Mitokado Homura said aggrievedly, "Hiruzen, I didn't know! I did it all for the village!"

"No! Impossible!"

At this moment Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at everyone with a pale face. He could accept the betrayal of the Uchiha Clan, and even the betrayal of commoner ninjas, but he really found it hard to believe that his old friends had betrayed him.

"No! It's the Mangekyo!" Hiruzen Sarutobi realized in an instant and stared at Uchiha Yoru Mitokado Homura to betray him: he had been hit by Genjutsu. And the only Genjutsu that could be done so secretly was probably the legendary Mangekyou Mangekyo.

"Bang!"

Just then, the conference room door opened, and a masked Anbu Ninja appeared, his face covered in blood and filth, and his body reeking of blood.

"By order of the Hokage-sama, the Sarutobi, Yamanaka, Nara, Akimichi, Shimura... clans have rebelled. The elite forces of Root and Anbu have been mobilized, but are now encountering fierce resistance and request reinforcements!"

Boom!

Just then, a violent explosion suddenly erupted in Konoha, followed by a terrifying roar that echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

"Nine-Tails!"

Instantly, everyone's expression changed drastically. Even Jiraiya's expression hardened, and he angrily shouted in terror, "Uchiha Yoru! You actually manipulated the Nine-Tails!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi exclaimed in shock, "Impossible! Naruto has been transferred to the Summoning Beast Grounds!"

However, at this moment, the Anbu member wearing the blood-stained mask slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes to everyone's shocked gaze.

"Reporting to the Third Hokage, it is suspected that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Root experiment, has gone berserk and appeared directly on the Sarutobi Clan's territory!"

"You!" At this moment, the Third Hiruzen Sarutobi, stared in disbelief at the Anbu member before him, his finger trembling as he pointed at him.

Under everyone's shocked gaze, the Anbu member slowly removed his mask, revealing a youthful face. He turned to Uchiha Yoru, knelt on one knee, and respectfully shouted, "Uchiha Itachi greets Lord Yoru!"

Uchiha Itachi! At only twelve years old, Uchiha Itachi's eyes gleamed with the Mangekyō Sharingan, a sight that shocked everyone and sent chills down their spines. Many stared in terror at the scene before them.

Uchiha Shisui one pair of Mangekyo, and Hatake Kakashi had one. Now, another pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, and with Uchiha Yoru joining the fray, the Uchiha Clan now possesses three and a half pairs of Mangekyo.

"How is that possible!"

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was deathly pale, filled with disbelief. He had thought about many things, even about Uchiha Itachi's betrayal, but he had never imagined that Uchiha Itachi, who was only twelve years old, could awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"No one can escape those eyes."

In front of everyone, Uchiha Yoru clearly revealed the Mangekyō Sharingan, as if explaining something.

"Damn it!"

At this moment, Jiraiya cursed under his breath and smashed open the window, running towards the barrier in the distance. At the same time Third Hokage and a group of ninjas were also there.

At that moment, Uchiha Yoru immediately shouted, "Uchiha Itachi, Hatake Kakashi!"

"Lord Yoru!"

Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi each knelt on one knee before him, their eyes blazing with fervor. After waiting and plotting for so long, the change was finally about to begin!

"I now order you to take over the Anbu!"

At a single command, Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi immediately obeyed. At this moment Uchiha Yoru openly revealed his ambition to seize power, right in front of everyone.

In terms of background, Hatake Kakashi originally came from the Anbu, so he naturally had the qualifications and ability, not to mention that there was also Uchiha Itachi at the moment.

"Uchiha Shisui, I hereby order you to lead the elite Konoha Military Police Force to take over Root. Anyone in Root who disobeys will be executed without mercy!"

"Yūhi Kurenai, Uzuki Yugao, Might Guy, you three will lead the Seventh Division of the Konoha Military Police Force to take over the Intelligence Department! Shiranui Genma, Tatami Iwashi Namiashi Raidō, Hizashi Hyuga, you will each lead the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Divisions of the Konoha Military Police Force to take over the Medical Department and the Barrier Department!"

"Yes!"

"Issue the signal simultaneously!" At that moment, Uchiha Yoru Mangekyo flashed a bewitching crimson, and after glancing at everyone, he shouted, "From this moment on! For the safety of Konoha is under the control of the Konoha Military Police Force!"

"Yes!"

Jōnin Uchiha Yoru issued his orders, the Jonin openly expressed his desire to take control of Konoha in front of everyone.

In this moment of panic, the neutral Jōnin all turned their gazes toward Tsunade, upon seeing this, simply snorted coldly.

"Konoha must not be in chaos! All other Jōnin up! I, Tsunade, will now take over the Hokage Office Building!"

Tsunade's order instantly gave these neutrals a sense of direction, since the current situation in Konoha could very well cause unrest, and could even lead to a civil war if they were not careful.

With each command issued, the entire Konoha instantly erupted into turmoil. In particular, the angry shout and the aura it exuded triggered terrifying memories of years past in the minds of countless Konoha residents.

Clearly, although it was only for a brief moment, it was the instant the barrier was broken, and countless Jōnin turned their gazes toward the heart of Konoha.

I'll resume normal updates starting June 1st, two updates every morning at 8 AM. I finally feel physically recovered, damn it, I feel alive again.

It almost broke down. Damn it, I hate COVID-19.
