After hearing such "important information" from Itachi, Danzo was shocked.
"Someone actually wants to defect!"
"And that [traitor village] even dares to send people to help them?!!"
"Is this information reliable?"
Itachi nodded in confirmation.
Seeing this, Danzo drew a sharp breath. His left hand gripped the armrest of his wheelchair, and his heart immediately began to race.
This was a golden opportunity!
No matter who the [Flame Hidden Village] sent to help, he could set an ambush and wipe them all out!

So Itachi could never betray Konoha!
"Itachi, what do you plan to do?"

"No matter how many people that [traitor village] sends, this time none of them will make it back!"
Danzo clenched his left fist and swore to himself.
He could even use this chance to seize a few more Sharingan and replenish his stock!
But after the life-threatening danger
