"The information is true."
"The content sent back from the three lines of border ANBU, caravan spy, and Land of Lightning peripheral stronghold are basically the same."
"Kumogakure Delegation has submitted documents, hoping that Konoha will restrain Uchiha from attacking in the name of allies and the village."
Utatane Koharu's face changed.
"Constrain Uchiha?"
"Are they afraid of being beaten?"
Mitokado Homura whispered:
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I can't bear it."
"Uchiha Ren's Temple Formation can summon a large-scale Lightning Release bombing."
"Hyuga Byakugan is responsible for the reconnaissance. Kumogakure's ambush and traps have all failed."
"Uchiha elites are advancing after Thunder."
"With this style of play, Kumogakure border stronghold cannot stop it at all."
The office became quiet again.
This is no longer an ordinary conflict.
This is Uchiha using war to prove his strength to the entire Shinobi World.
Danzo leaned on a cane and said coldly:
"The real trouble is not Temple Formation."
Everyone looked at him.
Danzo's one eye stared at the information on the table.
"It's Uchiha Ren himself."
He picked up a scroll and spoke in a low voice.
"According to battlefield traces and survivor information, Uchiha Ren fought against Fourth Raikage alone."
"Lightning Release Armor of Raikage was suppressed by him head-on."
"After Eight-Tails Complete Tailed Beast Transformation came to support, it still failed to turn the tide of the battle."
"In other words, Uchiha Ren defeated Raikage and Eight-Tails alone."
Mitokado Homura took a deep breath.
"This is no longer an ordinary Kage Level."
Utatane Koharu stared at Danzo.
"What is his Mangekyo ability?"
Danzo said in a deep voice:
"There are at least two."
"The first one is extreme speed."
"He can suppress Raikage in the speed field that Raikage is proud of."
"The second one is the Intangibility pupil technique that invalidates attacks."
"Raikage's fist and Eight-Tails's tentacles both passed through his body, but they were unable to cause any harm."
Utatane Koharu looks ugly.
"Intangibility?"
"Isn't this the same as the masked man from Nine-Tails Night who invaded Konoha?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes suddenly darkened.
Nine-Tails Night is an unavoidable nightmare in the minds of all Konoha executives.
Fourth Hokage died in battle.
Nine-Tails goes berserk.
Konoha suffered heavy losses.
Uchiha Clan was therefore suspected, isolated, and monitored.
Now that Ren has shown similar abilities to Intangibility, everyone's first reaction will be to think of that night.
Danzo shook his head.
"Not the same ability."
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura looked at him at the same time.
Danzo said coldly:
"Nine-Tails Night The person who invaded Konoha used the space system Mangekyo pupil technique."
"His Intangibility transferred his body to Alternate Space, leaving behind Projection in reality."
"As for Uchiha Ren and Intangibility, there is no obvious spatial fluctuation."
"According to intelligence judgment, his ability is more like a virtual reality switch, switching his own existence from reality to illusion."
"Both belong to Mangekyō Sharingan."
"But eye surgery is completely different."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's fingers holding the pipe were slightly firm.
"In other words, Nine-Tails Night's intruder is not Ren."
Danzo nodded.
"It's not him."
"But that doesn't mean Ren is safe."
"On the contrary, he is more dangerous than Nine-Tails Night that Masked Man."
In the office, everyone's expressions darkened.
Mitokado Homura whispered:
"A Uchiha Clan Head has the strength to defeat Raikage and Eight-Tails."
"One Uchiha Shrine can turn the family's elite into more than a dozen Kage Level turrets."
"If they are allowed to continue fighting, Kumogakure may really be penetrated by Uchiha."
Utatane Koharu gritted his teeth and said:
"If Kumogakure loses, Uchiha will gain more than just military exploits."
"And Land of Lightning's wealth, Ninjutsu, Secret Technique, resources."
"Their strength will continue to expand."
Hiruzen Sarutobi closed his eyes.
Of course he understands this.
Uchiha was originally one of the strongest ninja clan Konoha.
If you swallow Kumogakure's war compensation and get Land of Lightning resources, your reputation and foundation will skyrocket.
At that time, how can Konoha Leadership restrain Uchiha?
By Hokage command?
Prepared by Military Police Force?
Or rely on village justice?
These things will pale in front of absolute military achievements.
Danzo gripped the crutches tightly and spoke in a cold voice.
"Hiruzen."
"Uchiha Ren can no longer be treated as an ordinary Clan Leader."
"He has used this war to create a reputation that is enough to shock Shinobi World."
"If the village does not prepare in advance, when he returns to Konoha in triumph, the situation will not be easily controllable by us."
Mitokado Homura nodded.
"Konoha people will only see that Uchiha defeated Kumogakure for the village."
"They don't care if Uchiha sends troops without permission."
"They just cheer for victory."
Utatane Koharu's face was livid, and his voice was word by word:
"Once Uchiha wins this war, Uchiha Ren's prestige will be higher than Konoha, and even... he will come to fight for Hokage Position." No one in Hokage Office answered the call immediately.
Utatane Koharu's words "He will come to fight for Hokage Position" hit everyone in the heart like a stone.
Hiruzen Sarutobi held the pipe between his fingers, and the shredded tobacco burned and went out.
After a long time, he raised his head.
"Hokage Position, must not fall into the hands of Uchiha."
This sentence was spoken very slowly, but without any hesitation.
Mitokado Homura pushed up his glasses and looked ugly.
"Hiruzen, but the problem is, if Ren really penetrates Kumogakure this time, what he brings back will not be ordinary military exploits."
"Konoha people will regard him as a hero."
"Hyuga will stand by his side."
"Uchiha Shrine will completely confirm its status as a weapon of war."
Utatane Koharu gritted his teeth and said, "When the time comes, if he uses his merits, prestige, and strength to force him into the palace, who can stop him?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi has no answer.
Because he couldn't think of an answer either.
Today's Uchiha is no longer the Uchiha that could be slowly suppressed by Military Police Force, villagers' public opinion, and high-level exclusion.
The reputation Ren created in Land of Lightning is too ruthless.
Raikage Seriously injured.
Eight-Tails retreated.
Kumogakure took the initiative to send someone to ask Konoha for mediation.
These three things stacked together are enough to make the whole Shinobi World re-examine Uchiha.
Danzo leaned on crutches and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi coldly.
"Hiruzen, you finally understand."
"I have long said that Uchiha is the biggest hidden danger in the village."
"You always try to deal with them with gentleness, surveillance, and delay."
"What now?"
Danzo's voice was gloomy.
"Ren has grown to the point where it can suppress Raikage and Eight-Tails head-on."
"Give him more time, he will not be Clan Leader, the ninja of Konoha, but the second Hokage candidate of Konoha."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's face became darker.
"Danzo, what do you want to say?"
