"Wow, what a gorgeous firework." Uchiha Jie looked at Hokage Building who exploded in an instant and admired.
The guy Root was also suddenly awakened by the roar, and his drowsiness was dispelled in an instant. He raised his head, looked at the smoke and dust rising in the night, and asked in a low voice, "Well, why don't we go over and take a look?"
"Stupid..."
Uchiha Jie reached out and patted the back of his head, which made him grin.
"That is Hokage Building belonging to Hokage, not Master Danzo. Our purpose now is still to search for Uchiha Itachi, not to mention that it was Hokage Building that exploded, even if it is..."
Uchiha Jie thought about it for a while, and Hokage Building seems to be Konoha's iconic and practical building. There is nothing more eye-catching than blowing it up.
"Ahem, even if Lord Hokage explodes on the spot, we still have to listen to Lord Danzo..." he said.
"But Lord Hokage seems to be in Hokage Building. Didn't you see it when we started patrolling? The lights in Lord Hokage's office are still on." Root muttered softly.
"If Lord Hokage hasn't gotten off work yet, then we have to go take a look. Here, take this." Uchiha Jie said as he took out a camera and stuffed it into Root's hand.
"If Lord Hokage is bombed with a bruised nose and swollen face, take a photo of it and give it to Master Danzo. Maybe you can get a reward."
"But, if Lord Hokage is fighting the enemy..." Root looked at the camera in his hand and said hesitantly.
"That is Lord Hokage, the famous Dr. Ninjutsu. If there is anyone else in the world who can be his enemy, it is only us Danzo. Elder." Uchiha Jie boasted wildly with a smile, and rushed to Hokage Building with Root who was with him.
After such a major incident happened, even Danzo no longer had the intention to continue tracking Uchiha Itachi. Root also launched a gathering of fireworks near Hokage Building.
Uchiha Jie was one of the late arrivals, and some Root had already arrived at the scene. They were helping Anbu appease the villagers living around.
He found a fisherman Root, poked his shoulder and asked:
"What's the situation? I heard that Lord Hokage was still inside the building when it exploded."
"Hey, let me tell you, I'm miserable..."
Root, who is a fisherman, is a chatterbox. When someone asks him, he starts talking non-stop.
"Did you know that according to everyone's estimates, there were dozens of Explosive Tag posted on the outer wall of the building, and the Kakkō produced by the explosion soared into the sky."
"But the damage caused was actually not that big. Anbu and the others had gone home a long time ago. Only Lord Hokage was present. He reacted at the moment of the explosion, so he didn't suffer much damage."
"If you haven't suffered much damage, then you are injured?" Uchiha Jie's voice suddenly became excited.
"I don't know..." Chatter Root shook his head, Lord Hokage is still at the scene, Anbu and others have set up a cordon, and even we can't get in.
Before Uchiha Jie could say anything, Danzo rushed over. The Anbus could stop Root, but they couldn't stop Root's boss. The Roots naturally followed behind their bosses, and everyone felt that their faces were bright.
Hokage Building is a building with a wooden structure, but the flames generated by the explosion were not enough to ignite the giant wood once created by First Hokage Wood Release.
Hokage Building lost the lower two floors, and the upper structure fell to the ground. Although there were sawdust everywhere, the main structure was still intact. Third Hokage was packing up the scrolls. There were some information and items that only Hokage could know. Even Anbu was not qualified to touch it.
Danzo strode into the ruins, frowned, and stood in front of Third Hokage.
"Hiruzen, what's going on?" he asked, "Why was Hokage Building attacked?"
Third Hokage sorted out the dusty bamboo hats and Hokage robes, piled the scrolls into categories, then stood up and looked at his old teammates.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Root who suddenly appeared behind Danzo.
"Sir! Someone took advantage of the explosion and left Konoha through the barrier!" Yamanaka Feng used Body Flicker Technique to arrive at the scene and said in a rapid voice.
"It's through..." He looked at Third Hokage and stopped what he was going to say.
"Say!" Danzo ordered in a deep voice. His eyes were fixed on the third generation, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. He had already guessed what happened, and now it was up to Third Hokage to explain it.
"Yes! The person who left Konoha from the barrier still left through the loophole left by Lord Hokage. Preliminary judgment is that it is the Uchiha Itachi we have been searching for!" Yamanaka Feng spoke slowly but clearly, word by word.
The third generation's expression was not as exciting as Danzo expected. Instead, it was very dull. His eyes swept over the person in charge of the barrier in Anbu and got a positive reply. Just when the explosion just happened, Uchiha Itachi left Konoha while Root was concentrating on Hokage Building.
"This is not Gen's base. This is Hokage Building, Hiruzen. Like Hokage Rock and you, it is the face of Konoha..." Danzo looked at the other two Elder who rushed to the scene and said in a low voice.
The other ninjas were not allowed to enter the scene, but they all knew what happened because Hyuga Clan and Byakugan were there.
Third Hokage, however, still kept his ears to the ground and said, "Hokage Building is already old, so it would be good to renovate it now."
"Tenzo..." Hokage turned around, looked at his Anbu team, and summoned a tall ninja.
"A..." Danzo looked complicated. The Anbu Third Hokage called was once a member of his Root, and was also the only result of the most important thing he lost tonight.
He is Konoha the only ninja who can use Wood Release now, except himself.
"Please." Third Hokage nodded to Tenzo, who started Hand Seals solemnly, recalling the appearance of Hokage Building in his mind.
"I want..."
But he didn't expect that after he started Hand Seals, Lord Hokage would talk about his needs. He really wanted a different Hokage Building, but the chakra had already been mobilized, and he couldn't stop at this time.
"Wood Release·Four-pillar home!"
Tenzo slammed the ground in front of it, and the branches of the trees shot up from the ground, and the roots were intertwined to form a wooden building. Except for the lack of coloring and the installation of window furniture, it was no different from the previous Hokage Building.
Third Hokage did not look at his new house, but looked at Danzo. The meaning in his eyes was self-evident: Danzo, I am Hokage.
