In fact, Ning Feng had long suspected that Danzo might suddenly make his move at this moment, pin a charge on him, and then take him away with overwhelming force.
At that point, even if the Root squad he led killed Uchiha Minato himself, Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, would have objections, but ultimately would be unable to do anything to Danzo.
In the end, Danzo would brand the Uchiha Clan as rebels, completely erasing them from Konoha.
In the original story, Danzo had also used schemes repeatedly to force the Uchiha Clan into rebellion.
Before that, the Uchiha Clan had actually still trusted Konoha deeply. They simply could not outmaneuver those schemers.
Seeing Danzo suddenly appear now, how could Ning Feng not know what he intended to do!?
Sure enough, the moment Danzo finished speaking, several members of Root surrounded Ning Feng and the others, their eyes flashing with intense killing intent.
"Danzo, what are you trying to do!? Our Uchiha Clan has always been utterly loyal. How could we possibly have any intention of controlling the Nine-Tails!?"
Uchiha Fugaku frowned and hurriedly began arguing with Danzo.
As the head of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fugaku would never allow anyone to casually smear his name.
"Hmph, whether you intended to control the Nine-Tails remains to be seen!"
How could Danzo give Fugaku any chance to explain? He smiled coldly. "Disarm them!"
Seemingly worried that Uchiha Minato would resist, Danzo deliberately added, "Uchiha Minato, Uchiha Fugaku, as members of the Konoha High Command, both of you should know that if anything goes wrong with the Nine-Tails..."
"None of us can bear the responsibility, so put down your weapons and come quietly with us!"
Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku immediately widened his Mangekyō Sharingan and was about to act as he spoke.
