Sarutobi Hiruzen at Danzo, who lay unconscious on the hospital bed, his eyelids twitching incessantly.
What kind of power could have caused Danzo to suffer such severe injuries?
Even Izanagi couldn't withstand it?
Uchiha Kei watched coldly from the sidelines.
He didn't care at all what Danzo was like.
The early demise of this old schemer is a great thing for Konoha and their plans.
He had foreseen this day when he was formulating the plan to break Danzo between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.
He knew the strength of the Yang Organization better than anyone.
One mission dispatches 500 Jonin, plus a Kage Level Yin Mask.
With such a foundation, even if Danzo mobilized all its resources, let alone Konoha's roots, they would probably find it difficult to withstand.
Itachi, standing beside Kei, had barely concealed anger in his eyes.
Just an hour ago, he received a message from Jing and rushed here without stopping.
Pushing open the door, the first thing that came into view was Danzo on the hospital bed.
Before he could even feel a surge of joy, he saw the Danzo covering Sharingan's entire arm.
Anger erupted instantly!
Each Sharingan represents the sacrifice of one of his clansmen!
"Lord Hokage, I believe Danzo owes the Uchiha Danzo explanation!"
Itachi coldly pointed at the Sharingan on Danzo's arm.
Sarutobi Hiruzen is in a bad mood right now, and he can no longer maintain his usual open-mindedness.
"Explain? What's there to explain? The most important thing now is for Danzo to wake up as soon as possible!"
His voice was full of impatience.
"Does the Lord Hokage mean that we Uchiha are not considered part of Konoha?"
Itachi's voice was cold, with a hint of inquiry.
At that moment, he hated himself terribly.
Back then, if it weren't for Uchiha Kei's persuasion, would he have already slaughtered his entire clan for the sake of Konoha's peace?
In his anger, the words his father had said to him years ago echoed in his ears.
"Konoha is not as simple as you think."
"Our Uchiha Clan is now walking on the edge of danger; the slightest mistake could lead to our annihilation!"
"You're still young... there are many things you don't understand yet."
Recalling his father's deep sigh, Itachi was completely disdainful back then.
Back then, he stubbornly believed that this was just an excuse for his father or even his clan to stage a coup.
Now, when he saw the arm Sharingan, Itachi finally understood his father's predicament back then.
What exactly is the attitude of a high-ranking official who Kekkei Genkai of a village or clan as a means towards the Uchiha Clan?
Friendly tolerance?
Itachi Sharingan activated instantly.
"Wait, don't rush."
A hand pressed down on his shoulder.
Itachi turned around, puzzled, and looked at Uchiha Kei.
"We've made it this far all these years, what's a little more time?"
Uchiha Kei's voice was very soft.
Itachi was taken aback, then his Sharingan dissipated, and his cold expression returned to normal.
Jing is right.
So many years have passed; a moment of impulse cannot change Uchiha once faced.
It won't solve Konoha's current situation either!
Itachi's eyes became incredibly determined.
At that moment, for the first time, he truly wanted to become the Hokage of Konoha.
Change all of this!
Time passed slowly, and just after all the Konoha High Command had arrived, Danzo also woke up.
"Danzo, what happened?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was very gentle; after all, he was also heartbroken to see his old friend lying miserably in a hospital bed.
Even if the two have different political views.
The heads of the other families also looked at Danzo.
"Cough cough cough."
Danzo was about to speak when a violent cough rendered him speechless.
"Yang Organization..."
Danzo managed to utter three words.
The moment the words "Yang Organization" appeared, everyone in the ward turned extremely pale.
As a powerful family group in the village, they naturally had some understanding of the organization's general situation.
I initially thought it was just a small organization, but I was wrong...
Even Danzo was seriously injured!
Where are the people you brought?
Danzo's expression instantly turned sorrowful.
"They're all... they're all dead."
The ward fell silent.
Danzo's Danzo are people hidden in the shadows; they all know this, but they just don't say it out loud.
They were well aware of just how powerful this force was.
Such a powerful force was actually wiped out?
"Danzo, who gave you permission to leave the village?"
Hyuga Hiashi wore an angry expression.
Regardless of whether it's a force operating in the shadows or not, it all belongs to the foundation of Konoha.
They were completely wiped out just like that, without any explanation?
Hyuga Hiashi was unwilling to accept this!
Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment, then slowly said, "I gave in."
Uchiha Kei gave a subtle, mocking smile.
You let me have it?
You're kidding me.
You two almost broke up because of this.
When it comes to shamelessness, you have to look to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
However, this also shows that Sarutobi Hiruzen still couldn't let go of his friendship with Danzo.
"Lord Hokage, I think we deserve an explanation."
Hyuga Hiashi voice.
The other clan leaders remained silent, but their gazes all turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Now is not the time to discuss this."
Sarutobi Hiruzen had a very gloomy expression.
Doesn't he feel heartache at the loss of so many Jonin?
But what can you do even if you feel heartbroken?
Could he possibly kill Danzo?
"They... will be arriving in Konoha soon..."
Danzo managed to utter a single sentence before fainting again.
In the ward, everyone's face was very solemn.
The terror of the Yang Organization was evident in Danzo's complete annihilation.
Such an organization will soon arrive in Konoha.
This possibility loomed over everyone's minds like a dark cloud.
"Everyone, the Yang Organization is likely to arrive in Konoha soon. What are your opinions?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen also felt heavy-hearted, glancing around at everyone else.
The clan leaders all frowned, but none of them spoke.
"Lord Hokage, this was Danzo's doing, and I think he should take responsibility."
Seeing that everyone was silent, Itachi stepped forward and spoke first.
The others looked at him with scrutinizing eyes, and then turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Although Itachi is young, what he said makes a lot of sense.
Danzo provoked the people, so why should the entire Konoha Village take the blame?
Moreover, isn't this Danzo's usual practice?
Obtain the greatest value with the least cost.
"How can we take responsibility? Are you asking Konoha to abandon Danzo? This is not how Konoha should act!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression darkened.
Itachi laughed, a laugh full of mockery.
"Lord Hokage, isn't this Danzo's usual practice? I believe he would agree to it, after all, it's in line with his ninja way."
"Let's not talk about that here. What we need to discuss now is the upcoming events for the Yang Organization."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was one of barely concealed rage.
"Furthermore, neither of you are the chieftains of your respective tribes, so you are not qualified to participate here!"
Anger and anxiety Sarutobi Hiruzen of his usual composure, turning him into a powder keg.
"Kage and Itachi will be the candidates for the Uchiha Clan head; they are qualified."
Uchiha Fugaku suddenly uttered this sentence.
Everyone stared at Uchiha Fugaku in astonishment.
From the moment he entered until now, Uchiha Fugaku has only uttered this one sentence.
That one sentence silenced the entire ward.
