Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this and was startled. He turned to look again, but there were no bandages or meat patties.

Danzo's corpse... was gone!

Before he could give an order, the other Jonin automatically stopped fighting.

Everyone knew who Danzo was.

If Uchiha Jinghuo had truly killed Danzo, then they would have had to fight to the death.

But they hadn't.

Now, even if the Third Hokage ordered an attack again, apart from a few hotheads, no one else would intend to fight to the death.

The opponent was clearly targeting Danzo alone, so why bother?

When the Uchiha Clan was targeted, they stood aside;

When Shimura Danzo was targeted, they naturally also stood aside.

Moreover, if they acted too aggressively, it would anger this Uchiha brat.

They didn't think they could escape the fist that fell like a mountain of rock.

Especially, what the Uchiha brat said about the Uchiha's Izanagi...

Although they didn't quite know what Izanagi was, since the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, didn't refute it, it meant that this Uchiha brat was telling the truth.

However, it wouldn't look good to just stand there doing nothing, so they decided to slack off and pretend to attack.

But Uchiha Jinghuo's next words froze everyone's attacking movements in place.

"Danzo! Whose Sharingan did you use, and what was the price you paid! Was it my parents'!"

The flames on the Raging Red Skull Giant erupted, and the scorching wind raged across the field, but it felt like a cold wind sweeping by. Everyone was dumbfounded, frozen on the spot.

In the silence, they couldn't help but look at Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeking the truth.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen's appearance at this moment was exactly like someone whose truth had been exposed by Uchiha Jinghuo, filled with shock after knowing the truth.

This made the other Jonin lose even the thought of slacking off and immediately put away their hands, standing in place.

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew very well.

Danzo had indeed obtained a pair of Sharingan.

It was a pair of Sharingan exchanged from the Uchiha Clan two years ago when the armistice agreement with Kumogakure occurred.

But he had exchanged it back because a ninja from Root had a high compatibility with the Sharingan.

Although it had provided Danzo with many conveniences, Danzo truly no longer had any Sharingan.

So... whose Sharingan was he using now?

Moreover, what Uchiha Shisui's younger brother said, asking Danzo to return his brother's eyes?

"What is this..." Just as the thought surfaced in his mind, he saw Uchiha Shisui rushing over.

His right eye was tightly closed, bleeding, and looking disheveled, which made his heart tremble.

Even though Uchiha Shisui hurriedly apologized and asked Uchiha Jinghuo to come back, the shock in his heart did not decrease in the slightest.

Because he believed Uchiha Jinghuo's words now.

After all, he had only told Danzo about Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami today.

Otherwise, why would Uchiha Shisui's eyes suddenly be gouged out today?

"Shisui, what's going on?!" He ultimately didn't ask this question.

"Shisui, have your brother stop first." This was Sarutobi Hiruzen's most habitual appeasement method of "making a big deal out of a small one and a small deal out of nothing."

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not blame Uchiha Jinghuo, Uchiha Shisui breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation was better than he had imagined.

"Jinghuo, stop quickly." Uchiha Shisui shouted urgently.

But how could Uchiha Jinghuo stop just like that?

If he stopped now, he would be appeased again.

Uchiha Jinghuo's will was perfectly embodied in the Raging Red Skull Giant, making it more solid and its killing intent more ferocious.

"Danzo! Return my brother's eyes!!"

"Otherwise, today it will be either you die or I die!!!"

Uchiha Jinghuo's tender voice was filled with ferocity.

Countless people felt a chill, and a fear named "Uchiha Jinghuo" was silently etched into their hearts.

In Uchiha Jinghuo's Mangekyo, the Demon's Window, it seemed as if demonic arms were reaching out, faintly visible, like an illusion.

This special aura made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts, their cells screaming, instinctively wanting to retreat, wanting to stay away from this Uchiha brat.

They all thought of one thing: "This Uchiha brat still has a trump card!"

While others were afraid, Uchiha Shisui became anxious.

He knew how painful it was to activate Susanoo.

Moreover, every time he used it, his ocular power would be consumed and could not be recovered.

Others might not know, but he did—Jinghuo Uchiha was gambling with his own future!

"Shizuka, calm down!"

"Cancel it quickly!"

Although Uchiha Shisui could also activate Susanoo, he had a vague feeling that if he did, Jinghuo Uchiha would shift his target from Shimura Danzo to the villagers.

Even if his Susanoo could fight back, the clash of two Susanoos in the village center would cause countless villagers to die!

Jinghuo Uchiha would also die!

He couldn't bear the consequences of such an outcome.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Meanwhile, Sarutobi Hiruzen was the first to notice the collapsing houses around them.

Fortunately, there were no casualties, only damaged houses and the Root base.

The disaster was not severe.

But!

If Jinghuo Uchiha really went on a rampage, even if they tried their best to stop him, Konoha might experience another Nine-Tails Night.

Especially since Jinghuo Uchiha wasn't a beast; he was intelligent and knew where the shelters were.

Konoha, at this moment, could not withstand such a disaster!

Therefore, if he sided with Danzo...

The consequences were unimaginable!

"Now, there's only one option!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes became resolute.

"Find Danzo!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said to a Hyuga clansman beside him.

"Yes!" The Hyuga clansman quickly activated his Byakugan to search.

The surrounding ninjas couldn't help but look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and the Uchiha brat within the terrifying, raging red skull giant.

They understood that the Third Hokage had compromised!

This meant that Shimura Danzo had really gouged out Uchiha Shisui's eyes!

This made many ninjas feel a chill and immense anger.

Every ninja clan had its own foundation.

Like the Nara clan's Shadow Imitation Technique, the Aburame clan's Kikaichū, and the Hyuga clan's Byakugan...

The Uchiha clan's foundation was naturally the Sharingan.

Now, someone was coveting the Uchiha clan's Sharingan, which was tantamount to saying, "I'm interested in your secret techniques."

This was digging at their roots!

Digging up their ancestral graves!

Even though it was someone else's grave being dug now, they couldn't laugh.

They all understood the principle of "when one rabbit dies, the fox grieves."

They were all in the same village; if the Uchiha were gone, who would be next?

In an instant, the Jonin's eyes turned cold.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, the "peacemaker," naturally saw this and knew the situation was even more grim.

Now, it was even more impossible to target Jinghuo Uchiha.

There was only one way to handle this matter—make Danzo hand over Uchiha Shisui's eyes.

Soon, the Hyuga clansman found Shimura Danzo.

However, Shimura Danzo was stubborn and instead berated Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"The Uchiha clan destroyed Konoha's Root and caused chaos in the village center. Instead of questioning the Uchiha for staging a coup, you're questioning me!"

In the past, or in private, when Shimura Danzo was tough, Sarutobi Hiruzen would naturally choose to back down and appease him.

But now was the time to show his integrity as the Third Hokage; he absolutely could not disappoint the ninja clans!

"Danzo! Look at the situation clearly and hand over the item." Sarutobi Hiruzen still reminded him.

"I didn't take it!" Shimura Danzo acted shamelessly.

"Whether you took it or not, you yourself..." Sarutobi Hiruzen was having a headache.

He hadn't expected Shimura Danzo to be so oblivious to the situation.

However, before Sarutobi Hiruzen could finish speaking, Jinghuo Uchiha charged forward with his raging red Susanoo.

"Then no one will live!"
