Hiruzen's lips moved, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
Kushina's range of activities has been restricted for a long time, and the secret monitoring has never stopped.
Konoha needs Nine-Tails, so she has never really been given a choice. How much of the protection she talks about is for Kushina herself?
Hiruzen couldn't get around it at all, and all the escape routes were blocked. In the end, he could only nod with difficulty.
Madara threw his head back and laughed.
The laughter caused the remaining bricks and stones on the ruins to roll down, causing ripples to form in the blood next to Danzo's body at the bottom of the pit.
Hiruzen's face became serious, and the two consultants even buried their faces in it.
The laughter stopped, and Madara's eyes dug into Hiruzen's face, his eyes full of sarcasm.
"A truly powerful ninja village will teach Jinchuriki to completely control Tailed Beasts's power and use it on the battlefield!"
"Only the incompetent and weak would lock their weapons in a cage!"
Madara raised his hand and pointed at the corpse with a broken arm at the bottom of the pit, and glanced at Konoha leadership with cold eyes.
"On the one hand, I am afraid of the power I have cultivated and am reluctant to let go. On the other hand, I find good excuses for myself and package my imprisonment as protection."
"You don't even dare to face your own strength, how can you call your incompetence a responsibility? Is this what you Konoha have been doing for decades?"
Hiruzen's hand holding the pipe was shaking violently, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't refute even a single word.
Utatane Koharu knelt in the gravel and couldn't move. Mitokado Homura couldn't even hide his shame.
ANBU all lowered their gazes, no one dared to move forward.
Fugaku looked at the red figure in front of the four children in silence, with a complicated expression.
The man who was regarded as a traitor by Uchiha was the only mountain that protected them from the wind today.
Lin's shoulders, which were tense all the way, relaxed little by little. Her eyes were red but she held back tears.
Obito stood next to her again, with the wooden stick propped on the ground. His knuckles were still white, but his waist did not bend anymore.
No one spoke in the entire ruins.
Madara stopped laughing and finally looked at Hiruzen.
"Now, do you want to keep her?"
Hiruzen was holding the cracked pipe, and the broken pipe cut into the palm of his hand.
He looked at ANBU, who had no one coming forward, and then at the teenagers guarding Lin.
Half a minute later, Hiruzen's hand loosened and the pipe fell into the rubble.
"Rin Nohara, you can leave."
Obito exhaled a heavy breath, Ye was already waving impatiently in front.
"What are you still doing, waiting for Lord Hokage to take care of the food?"
Obito followed immediately, knocking the wooden stick against the gravel, and Lin and Kakashi also walked out of the ruins one after another.
Madara turned around, and the metal pieces on the armor collided with each other, making a tiny sound.
When passing by Hiruzen, he stopped for half a step.
"Remember, a cage cannot contain real power, it will only break it."
The red armor stepped over the broken wall and led the four teenagers into the early morning mist.
Ye walked at the end and looked back at the messy scene in the ruins, feeling very good.
At the end of this joint hearing, the four of them were not being tried at all.
But the entire Konoha leadership.
The mist spread along the street.
Madara led Ye out of the ruins, his red armor dazzling in the morning mist, and his steps didn't even pause.
Hiruzen stood behind the broken wall, with broken bricks on the ground pricking the soles of his shoes.
The fragment of the pipe cut the palm of his hand, and blood dripped out, but he didn't feel any pain.
The old man's face turned red, and he raised his hand several times, but finally gave no order to stop him.
How to stop?
What to stop?
Third Shinobi World War is fierce outside, and all fronts are extremely tight.
The power Madara showed was enough to demolish the entire Konoha.
This evil star is really pissed off. Hokage Building will definitely not be the last ruins.
If he died here today, Konoha would be leaderless that day, and the top brass wouldn't even be able to protect their dignity with a list of the dead.
Utatane Koharu climbed up from the rubble, his knees were covered with blood marks, his lips were trembling and he wanted to speak.
Mitokado Homura touched the broken corner of his glasses, put them back on the bridge of his nose tremblingly, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Hiruzen, what are you going to tell the village next?"
Hiruzen waved his hand, his voice hoarse and unseemly. "Stop talking, seal off the scene and carry away the wounded first!"
He turned and looked into the pit.
The two ANBU jumped down cautiously. Looking at Danzo's broken body with a collapsed chest, no one wanted to reach out first.
Hiruzen squatted down, untied his own Hokage's Ceremonial Robe with his own hands, and covered Danzo's unblinking face.
The moment the cloth fell, he closed his eyes.
The old enemies who had known each other for decades could not turn back from the greedy road until their death.
Of course it hurts to die in front of my eyes, but more importantly, I feel tired and annoyed.
How to explain?
What to explain?!
He secretly set up an ambush to intercept and kill his colleagues, and sent people to ANBU directly under him. There were also a bunch of Uchiha's Sharingan embedded in the severed arm!
All these bad things were exposed in front of the whole village, and he didn't even have a clue how to write an obituary!
Outside the ruins, Fugaku put away Sharingan. The blood and blood in his chest surged for a while before he suppressed it.
He didn't follow him, he just looked at the two old consultants kneeling in the gravel, and then looked at the direction in which Madara was going.
The corners of his mouth unconsciously rose up, and then they went back down again.
More than ten years.
Having their heads held down by the senior management and being bossed around, monitored, and ostracized, Police Force also became a scapegoat on their heads, and they had to weigh three points even to take a loud breath.
As a result, today, when our ancestors stopped here, they stepped Hokage into the mud with one foot, and the higher-ups didn't even dare to breathe!
This is what Uchiha should stand up for!
Fugaku clenched his fists, his nails dug into his palms, and his chest felt hot.
[Ding! Excitement Points from Uchiha Fugaku, +8600!]
He figured out that no matter why Madara left the village, this ancestor now cares about Ye.
And Ye is from Uchiha.
That's enough!
Nohibi came closer, his eyes full of enthusiasm, and his voice was three points lower. "Chief, should we catch up..."
"Shut up!"
Fugaku interrupted him, but his tone was not as serious as before.
He glanced at the hole Hokage Building was smashed through.
"Don't follow me. Today has been messy enough. Let's go back to the tribe first and write down everything that happened in the morning. If anyone dares to make it up, I will take care of it myself."
Fugaku My chest felt heavy, and I thought of something again.
"Nohibi, you follow alone and act according to the circumstances. As long as Madara is willing to speak, Uchiha must be sincere enough!"
After walking two streets, Madara stopped under the eaves of a house.
The power that made his bones ache disappeared. He looked up at Hokage Rock in the distance, and his eyes stopped for a while.
"The village has grown a lot over the years..."
Ye looked in the direction he was looking, with his hands in his pockets, his steps brisk, but his back felt a little tight.
This old man just finished dismantling Hokage Building, and now he is staring at Hokage Rock. Does he think those faces are an eyesore?
He didn't dare to ask.
One more Shinra Tensei, Konoha repair team will be disbanded today.
Madara turned his face sideways. "Take me around, I want to see what this village has become now."
"Sure, but we have to go eat first. Let's watch while we walk!"
Ye Tong nodded quickly and raised his hand to greet the Obito people.
"I've been working hard all morning and I haven't even drank the hot soup. Konoha leadership is so unbecoming of a human being that he doesn't even care about food!"
Obito was walking behind, leaning on a broken branch. His eyes were twitching when he heard it, and all he could think of was "Good guy."
Remove half a Hokage Building, trample a Danzo to death, and then turn around and complain that they didn't care about breakfast?!
He really can't keep up with this brain circuit!
When Madara heard this, his eyebrows immediately wrinkled. "They asked you to come for interrogation, and they didn't even prepare breakfast?"
Ye immediately answered the call, with a helpless face. "Don't mention it, you saw it just now, I even moved the chairs myself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Madara's murderous aura that had just dissipated began to return faintly.
Kakashi felt a chill on her back instantly, and Lin quickly looked towards Ye, fearing that this unscrupulous thing would say another sentence.
When Ye saw that it was good, he stopped, yawned and quickly led the way. "It's important to eat, save the dilapidated building for demolition next time!"
