Most Uchiha have gone home.
But Fugaku does not.
Behind him stood several Uchiha elites, waiting in front of Elder Danzo's mansion at the moment.
An hour ago, Elder Danzo had returned to the mansion under the "escort" of Third and Anbu.
Change clothes, take a bath, and give your last words to your clan members.
Let's talk about it, Elder Danzo's last words... are actually a bit much.
I explained it to Third outside Konoha for a long time, and after I came back, I explained it to Third for more than an hour.
Fugaku is indeed a little impatient. He hasn't even eaten dinner yet.
The fault was Elder Danzo, who assassinated Ruohuo and also took away Uchiha Clan's eyes. Such crimes are too numerous to describe.
But Fugaku can only wait.
After all, this is also the last moment in Elder Danzo's life.
Elder Danzo has already confessed, and he confessed under the "force" of the Uchiha Clan. He can't force Third to do it now, can he?
"Fugaku-kun, everyone."
Suddenly, Fugaku heard a familiar voice, as gentle as water, which immediately dispelled the irritability in his heart.
"Mikoto, why are you here?" Seeing his wife walking towards her carrying a lunch box, Fugaku smiled from the bottom of his heart.
"Master Mikoto!" Several Uchiha elites nodded and saluted.
"It's true of you that you don't want to eat, and you don't let everyone else eat... Come on, here are some cooked foods I bought. Let's eat them while they're hot."
Mikoto opened the lunch box. Inside were the sushi and rice balls he had just bought, neatly arranged. There was also a large chicken drumstick in it, which looked a bit awkward.
"Why is there only one chicken drumstick?" Fugaku raised his eyebrows.
"This, this is specially given to you by Mr. Obito..."
Mikoto smiled softly and took out the big chicken drumstick and handed it to Fugaku, "Thank you for bringing his brother back to the village."
"This child..." Fugaku chuckled, and the sliding touch of his palm made him stunned again. His wife was secretly writing on his hand with her fingers. Fugaku looked at his wife who was smiling softly and realized something.
"Ruohuo and Five-Tails are ready to destroy Hyuga Clan Grounds tonight."
This is the first sentence delivered by Mikoto.
This sentence also made Fugaku feel the weight of this chicken leg.
"This kid's way of thanking seems a bit special..." Fugaku smiled a little reluctantly.
He kept checking with Mikoto with his eyes, but saw Mikoto shaking his head and continuing to slide it on his palm.
"He needs you to hold Third and give him a signal."
Drag Third?
Signal?
No... are you serious?
Indeed, Uchiha Clan and Hyuga Clan are very difficult to deal with. Words like "Sooner or later I will destroy Hyuga Clan Grounds" are not only used by children, but even adults sometimes say them.
Especially when there is conflict.
Even some seniors of Uchiha talk after dinner about how to attack Hyuga...
But as I said, don't make fun of Tailed Beast!
"Tonight, inform Third, agree to hand over Tailed Beast, launch Tailed Beast Bomb, and destroy Hyuga."
Mikoto passed the final information to her husband.
Both husband and wife saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
"What about that kid?" Fugaku smiled, "Why don't you see him coming..."
"Obito said that Lord Orochimaru was a guest at his home, and Ruohuo and Grandmother were entertaining."
"..."
Fugaku was silent.
Orochimaru... A guest at Ruohuo's home?
At this time?
Orochimaru is a student of Third, and is very likely to be Fourth Hokage in the future.
He has been following Ruohuo every step of the way, obviously preparing for the next "negotiation" in advance.
Even guiding Ruohuo and handing Five-Tails to the village may not necessarily...
Judging from the information passed on by my wife.
Ruohuo at least knows about the upcoming negotiations and will most likely participate.
So...
Is this guy serious?
"Fugaku Patriarch."
While Fugaku was thinking, a middle-aged woman came out with a cold expression and cold tone. "Master Danzo has reached the end of his life."
"In his last words, there was something that he wanted to return to Uchiha, and asked Lord Fugaku to confirm that his death was true."
"Fugaku Master, if you don't mind, just come with me."
The middle-aged woman turned away after speaking.
It's as if the murderer who killed Danzo was Fugaku.
Fugaku frowned.
The other Uchiha elites couldn't stand it anymore, "He is obviously a sinner, but he still pretends to be a victim."
"That's right, the victims are obviously the one Uchiha whose eyes were gouged out, and that kid Ruohuo!"
"Please show some restraint!"
Fugaku shouted lowly, "That is the elder of Konoha after all. He has chosen to apologize. Look at the clan emblem on his body and maintain his dignity as a wealthy clan member!"
A few Uchiha are speechless.
Fugaku breathed out, "You guys wait here for a while."
After saying that, Fugaku walked towards the middle-aged woman.
Come to the main hall.
Danzo was lying on a clean bedding, covered with a white sheet with the Shimura Clan family emblem printed on it.
Several women were sobbing not far away, and several Shimura Clan ninjas were glaring at Fugaku at the door.
Fugaku frowned, and the word "sorrow" he wanted to say was directly canceled by him.
Third stood aside, sighed, and walked towards Fugaku, "Fugaku, this is the Sharingan that Danzo asked me to hand over to you."
Third handed Fugaku a box. Fugaku took it and opened it. Inside was a pair of eyes soaked in nutrient solution.
It's a pair of Three Tomoe.
"The origin of these eyes... Well, actually I have always known about it, but because I was too sensitive, I kept it as a secret."
Third sighed again and revealed a shocking secret.
"Lord Third..." Fugaku was very surprised.
"Let's talk as we walk, Fugaku."
Third shook his head and walked out of the main hall.
Fugaku looked back at the body of Elder Danzo, then glanced at the few Shimura clansmen in the room who were full of resentment, frowned, and finally nodded.
"Condolences."
After saying that, Fugaku stopped staying and turned around to follow Third.
The two of them walked to the door of the Shimura Clan's house, and Fugaku signaled for the family members and his wife to go back first.
Looking at his wife's back, Fugaku felt even more confused.
I even forgot about the heavy chicken leg for a moment.
"Lord Third... I don't understand." Fugaku frowned.
"It's okay if you don't understand, Fugaku..." Third blew out smoke.
"Just like back then, Danzo and I didn't understand why someone from the Uchiha tribe would suddenly assassinate Second Hokage..."
"Fugaku, Danzo's eyes were not stolen."
"This, I can guarantee you with the soul of Danzo..."
