Impeaching Danzo

As high-ranking personnel within a ninja village, Jonin held a certain degree of authority within their Jonin Squads, and were generally quite "well-informed" about intelligence matters.

Uchiha Yuzhen, the Uchiha supernova whose fame had recently risen in the past year.

They were not unfamiliar with him at all.

Having slain Biwa Juzo, and fought Sasori of the Red Sands to a standstill, being one of only two users of the Flying Thunder God within the village.

These were all things they were well aware of.

Familiarity aside, the fact that he was strong enough to annihilate the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was something they truly couldn't have imagined.

"Is Lord Yuzhen really this strong? Annihilating the Seven Ninja Swordsmen... such strength should be comparable to a Kage, shouldn't it?!"

"There's no doubt about it, this kind of power is in the realm of a Kage!"

"He's only about ten years old, right?"

"To be precise, he's thirteen..."

"Uchiha is truly lucky to have produced such a figure in this era."

"Who could say otherwise."

The murmurs of discussion from the crowd made another group of Jonin inwardly smug.

These people were none other than the Uchiha clan's Jonin present in the area.

To be honest, that kid Uchiha Yuzhen had considerable popularity within their clan.

No matter their faction, they all thought highly of him.

For no other reason.

He was closer to the position of Hokage than any other Uchiha.

For them, whose lifelong ambition was the Hokage position, Uchiha Yuzhen was the most dazzling prodigy in the clan!

Now, this battle record was enough to prove his strength and that he was worthy of the Hokage position.

With this thought, these Uchiha Jonin stared at Uchiha Yuzhen with fervent eyes.

And Uchiha Fugaku, seated at the head, saw all of this.

Especially the fervent gazes of the Uchiha clan's Jonin!

He felt quite helpless about it.

Previously, that kid Uchiha Yuzhen had taken the initiative.

Without much thought, he had followed his lead and summoned everyone.

Now, he had also realized.

What a shocking deed that kid Uchiha Yuzhen had accomplished!

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, plus the heads that required the Intelligence Division's investigation.

That was a squad of over a dozen Jonin.

And Uchiha Yuzhen, capable of annihilating such a force, capable of fighting a small-scale war, capable of defeating the forces of a small nation.

It had shocked him to the point of numbness.

He couldn't help but feel numb!

He had watched this kid grow from having Two-Tomoe Sharingan to this point.

Now, he could honestly ask himself if he could defeat that kid Uchiha Yuzhen.

He couldn't!

Absolutely couldn't!

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the pride of Kirigakure, composed of Elite Jonin.

He had fought with them before during his time as the commander of this coastline.

He knew very well that just three members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen would be enough to take him down.

Yet Uchiha Yuzhen had killed them all.

The difference in strength was already very clear.

As someone who had watched Uchiha Yuzhen grow from Two-Tomoe to his current strength, which surpassed his own.

His shock at this kid was greater than anyone else's!

This kid was...

A genius?

Monster?

He couldn't say for sure.

But it didn't matter.

He just needed to know that this kid was on his side!

With that thought, Uchiha Yuzhen cut off his musings and looked at the noisy scene.

He coughed lightly:

"Cough... cough... Everyone, please be quiet for a moment."

"Yuzhen-kun said that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are not the most important thing. What's important is the intelligence in these heads."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yuzhen took a step forward and said to everyone in the field:

"I will keep all your praises in my heart and use them as motivation to continue contributing to Konoha."

As he spoke, his expression turned serious as he pointed at the heads of the Root ninja and continued:

"However, during this skirmish, I found these ninjas to be somewhat unusual."

"Those anomalies made me feel somewhat trembling with fear, which is why I asked Lord Fugaku to call everyone over."

"So... seniors from the Intelligence Division, please tell everyone directly whatever you see later!"

As soon as his words fell, the scene fell silent.

The Jonin present all wore extremely serious expressions.

Their thoughts were simple.

Did these people have some fatal intelligence from Kirigakure?

Otherwise, why would this kid be making such a serious fuss?!

Uchiha Yuzhen could tell from the expressions of the Jonin present.

He understood some of their thoughts.

He was looking forward to what kind of stormy waves would appear.

When the ninjas from the Intelligence Division revealed the intelligence from the minds of the Root ninjas.

Uchiha Yuzhen felt immense disgust towards Shimura Danzō, who had arranged for him to be sent to this battlefield.

He was not one to suffer in silence.

If you send me here and conspire with outside forces to assassinate me, Don't blame me for retaliating in a big way!

After all, the 'Will of Fire' that Konoha had always promoted.

Encouraged friendship, bonds, and sacrifice.

Although in the hearts of the higher-ups, sacrifice was the most important.

But on the surface, the first two were the main focus of political propaganda.

Shimura Danzō's actions, such as assigning ninjas he disliked to designated locations.

And then conspiring with outside forces to assassinate comrades.

As long as all the Jonin present knew about this.

Even with his bonds with Sarutobi Hiruzen, such an assassination would be forgiven.

This guy wouldn't fall, but.

This kind of news, spread through the Jonin.

His reputation, even with Sarutobi Hiruzen's cover-up afterward.

Would be completely ruined among the Jonin.

With just this, His dream of becoming Hokage.

Would be forever out of reach!

Thinking of this, Uchiha Yuzhen sneered inwardly.

Didn't you, Danzō, want to be Hokage the most?

If you provoke me, I'll directly turn your dreams and obsessions into nothingness.

He imagined that such a situation would be worse than death for him!

At this very moment.

Three ninjas from the Intelligence Division walked out and bowed slightly to Uchiha Fugaku and the crowd.

They arrived before the several heads.

Without any preamble, they immediately cast their jutsu to invade the minds and extract information.

As the jutsu progressed, their expressions grew increasingly grim.

Cold sweat broke out instantly.

Seeing this, everyone present, except for Uchiha Yuzhen, was utterly bewildered.

"What could possibly be the reason for these fellows' faces to turn so unsightly?"

"Indeed, as ninjas of the Intelligence Division, they should theoretically remain calm no matter what information they encounter..."

Everyone's curiosity was piqued.

Including Uchiha Fugaku!

Uchiha Yuzhen's repeated emphasis.

The changing expressions of the Intelligence Division ninjas...

Curious about this, he watched as the Intelligence Division ninjas finished their work, still sweating.

Then, he asked with great interest:

"Everyone, can you tell us what information you've obtained?"
