ROU Chapter 134: The time has changed
🕑 Added 2023-12-15 17:58:47 +0000 UTCKonoha Village. Hokage Residence
Countless Jonin with grim expressions looked at the bodies below and at the unconscious Danzo, while the heads of the ninja clans gritted their teeth, their eyes filled with anger.
Compared to the frontline camp ninjas, the ninja clan leaders hate the act of taking another clan's kekkei genkai even more.
Tsunade's face also paled and although she knew that it was normal for ninjas to carry out human experiments, since her grandfather Senju Tobirama developed many of his techniques that way. That's why she pretended not to know that Danzo and the Third Hokage were secretly conducting experiments on humans, but she didn't expect them to be so crazy.
So many Three Tomoe Sharingan!
And Sasuke, who stood here as a special personnel, had flames in his eyes.
The young boy spoke with extreme anger: "I remember that the bodies of my Uchiha clan members were clearly arranged to be incinerated by the Third Hokage's ANBU. Why did our clan's eyes appear on this man?"
"Fifth Hokage, can you give my Uchiha clan an explanation for this?"
Although Sasuke was somewhat arrogant, he could still be considered a polite young boy. At this moment, he directly questioned Tsunade, disregarding the presence of the clan leader, Natsuo, beside him. It can be seen that he was already angry to a certain extent. After all...
Sasuke looked at the Sharingan on Danzo's arm, and his three tomoe began to spin as if they were about to undergo a transformation. Among those Sharingan could be those of their parents!
"I know." Tsunade sighed softly. "The village will give the Uchiha clan an explanation for this..."
"At the same time, my Senju clan should also be given an explanation."
Danzo not only obtained the Three Tomoe Sharingan, but also the cells of Senju Hashirama!
Looking at Danzo's body in a vegetative state, Tsunade couldn't help but look at Natsuo's expression. She wondered if Natsuo knew about these matters and was waiting for the opportunity to attack Danzo.
"The Root must be thoroughly cleaned." Tsunade took a deep breath and said: "Yamanaka Inoichi!"
"Here, Hokage-sama." Yamanaka Inoichi lowered his head and stood up.
"I command you to carefully investigate the memories of Danzo, Yamanaka Fu, and Aburame Torune... The focus is on the information about the Root." Tsunade took a deep breath and said: "Even though I plan to disband the Root, I can't let the village's assets go to waste."
"There may be some things in one of Root's laboratories... Everything must be returned to its rightful owner!"
Especially the parts of the major clans. Tsunade didn't say this out loud, but her words were unquestionable.
The many leaders of the ninja clans present breathed a sigh of relief and felt a sense of agreement with Tsunade—they had wanted to do this for a long time, but they were always blocked by the Third Hokage before.
The Third Hokage... truly a cancer of Konoha!
"The individuals responsible must also face accountability." Tsunade continued: "Especially Danzo's loyalists, and the ninjas who have harmed Konoha, they must be punished!"
A Jonin from the Shimura clan couldn't sit still and couldn't help but say: "Fifth Hokage-sama, the ninja world is currently in a war. Why not go easy on them and let them redeem themselves?"
The Shimura clan is very supportive of Shimura Danzo. Most of the Jonin in the clan are high-ranking members of the Root. This wave of accountability will be very painful.
However, Tsunade just coldly glanced at the Shimura Jonin and said: "If we don't take strict measures in this situation, how can we gain the trust of the people?"
"Why don't you ask the clan heads and Jonin of the major ninja clans in Konoha if they are willing to go easy on them?"
The next second...
The ninjas of the Shimura clan felt countless gazes shooting at them like thorns, with a pervasive sense of killing intent, making their backs tingle.
Go easy on them? What a joke! What do you think Danzo did to my clan back then?
The Shimura clan's Jonin silently swallowed their saliva. It suddenly occurred to them that this was no longer the era when Danzo and the Third Hokage were still around. Without the Third Hokage suppressing the anger of the major clans, without Danzo's intimidating reputation, how could he have the capital to make others compromise?
Especially considering that the experiments carried out by Danzo were using the remains of the Fifth Hokage's grandfather.
But the Shimura clan's Jonin paused for a moment and then decisively said: "I think a lenient punishment should be given."
"Fifth Hokage-sama, the power of the Root is formidable, and there are too many ninjas implicated by Danzo. Are you really going to push Konoha into chaos?"
This is a threat. But there is no other way. Although speaking up this time would make their own clan unable to survive among the major ninja clans and in front of the Fifth Hokage. But the Shimura Jonin knew very well what happened to Orochimaru's subordinates when Orochimaru defected.
Just look at Mitarashi Anko. Clearly, she was a genius who was worthy of being a disciple of the Sannin, but because of the village's suppression, her promotion was forcibly halted, and her strength could not increase for years. The resources of her clan were suppressed from all sides.
It wasn't until she sold herself to the Uchiha that her strength began to improve again...
However, in reality, Anko's experience was the least severe during that turmoil. Although Mitarashi Anko was Orochimaru's disciple, Orochimaru's actions before leaving had already shown that he and this disciple did not have the same opinion.
So compared to other silently disappearing ninjas, Anko was lucky enough to survive without undergoing excessive scrutiny and surveillance, and her clan was not completely suppressed.
That was already very fortunate.
But unlike Anko, the Shimura clan cannot be separated from their relationship with Danzo no matter what. If Konoha continues to pursue this, the entire clan will likely be implicated, and the Shimura clan will probably be completely destroyed.
"Fifth Hokage-sama!" Shimura Jonin took a deep breath and said seriously: "Please consider carefully before taking action, Hokage-sama..."
If you dare to make a move against us, we won't just sit back and wait for death. Don't forget, we are currently in the midst of the Great Shinobi World War, and Konoha is at a significant disadvantage.
Upon hearing this, even Tsunade was at a loss for words.
The other clan leaders glared angrily but were unable to speak.
Because no matter how angry everyone is, Konoha does not have the ability to suppress internal strife while also resisting external enemies. Compromise is an inevitable necessity...
This is reality.
Even if our hearts are filled with anger, reality cannot be changed.
And at this moment...
"Show leniency? You have quite the idea!" Natsuo suddenly sneered, then turned to Tsunade and the other clan leaders and said: "It seems that the disappearance of the corpses of the members of the Uchiha clan after their annihilation and the desecration they suffered afterwards may also be related to Shimura Danzo."
"After all, if you think about it carefully, with just Uchiha Itachi alone, even if his strength is strong enough to exterminate the entire Uchiha clan, it shouldn't be possible for the Konoha shinobi to have no reaction before the Uchiha clan was wiped out, right?"
"Was there someone in the village cooperating with Uchiha Itachi?"
And there is a high possibility that it was Shimura Danzo!
Sasuke widened his eyes, his body trembling. So there are still so many doubts about the annihilation of his clan by his brother? Is someone helping him with this matter?
On the other hand, the leaders of most of the ninja clans remained silent. Of course most of them noticed that there was something wrong with the genocide of the Uchiha clan, but did they dare to even think about it with the Third Hokage and Danzo handling the matter?
Not to mention Shimura Danzo, even the Third Hokage may attack them if they investigate the matter...
But now you're saying it so clearly Natsuo, aren't you afraid that the situation isn't chaotic enough?
Tsunade frowned: "Natsuo, are you suggesting..."
"What I mean is, my Uchiha clan was persecuted, leading to the extermination of the entire clan." Natsuo's mouth curved into a cold smile. "So as the current clan leader of the Uchiha clan and the only survivor within the clan, it's normal for me to lose my mind out of anger, right?"
"Now, no matter what kind of revenge I take, it's normal, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking...
Before the Jonin of the Shimura clan could react, he instantly appeared in front of him.
[Splurt!]
Natsuo's arm went straight through the heart of the Shimura clan Jonin. Natsuo slowly retracted his arm, and blood instantly sprayed out, dyeing the entire conference hall red.
"Natsuo! What are you doing?!" Tsunade widened her eyes. "Kill a Konoha ninja right in front of me?"
Although the Shimura Jonin deserved to die, the course of action regarding the Danzo incident has not yet been decided.
However, the next second...
The pattern of the Mangekyo Sharingan appeared in Natsuo's eyes.
"Mangekyo Sharingan Technique: Amaterasu!"
Then black flames began to appear on the body of the Shimura clan member, and in a matter of seconds the body disappeared into nothingness.
Everyone was shocked.
What is Natsuo doing? He actually killed someone in front of the Hokage?
"Natsuo! What the hell are you trying to do? You just killed a Konoha ninja, do you want to rebel?"
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu finally came to their senses and looked at Natsuo angrily.
Even Sasuke was stunned. Even he understands the consequences of directly attacking in front of the Hokage. Could Natsuo really want to become a traitor?
Natsuo snorted in disdain, "What's the point of keeping this tumor? Stop bothering me and worry about yourselves, it's obvious that Danzo got support from people in high positions within Konoha."
Before they could say anything, Tsunade exploded first.
[Bang!]
Tsunade stomped her foot causing the Hokage Residence to shake.
"Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura, do you two know about this?!"
Tsunade was tired of these two old men, added to the news of what Danzo did and Natsuo's recklessness, she could only vent to these two and looked at them extremely angry.
Once these two continue their nonsense, she will definitely shake her fist without hesitation.
"No, no, no, Tsunade, don't be impulsive, we were just surprised by Natsuo's attack." Mitokado Homura denied repeatedly. Originally they just wanted to hold Natsuo responsible to prevent them from being implicated in the Danzo matter.
Seeing that the situation was going in the wrong direction, they quickly denied their relationship with Danzo.
Tsunade's mouth twitched, but as Hokage, she couldn't allow Natsuo to act recklessly. Although it is obvious that the Shimura clan is very involved in Danzo's affairs, they cannot be killed directly without accepting the village's judgment...
In the end, things ended so dramatically.
Tsunade told Natsuo that he will stay at the Uchiha Clan Residence until his punishment is decided and then dismissed everyone. She has to return to deal with the consequences of Danzo's actions, and Natsuo's attack on a member of the Shimura clan, plus she has to investigate the people involved with Danzo.
The members of the Shimura clan also left in silence, not even daring to mention what would happen to Danzo now that he had technically been left in a vegetative state. Natsuo's attack on one of their members and Tsunade's subsequent reprimand of the two advisors was a wake-up call for them, this Konoha is no longer the Konoha of before.
The previous Third Hokage took them very seriously, but Tsunade is different, this is a very strong shadow. The New Age has no ship that can transport them.
As Sasuke walked back with Natsuo to the Uchiha clan residence, he looked confused. After thinking about it he realized that Natsuo was very powerful. He was able to kill Danzo and two other Elite Jonin and was also able to instantly kill a Jonin from the Shimura clan. Does this mean that he already has the ability to take revenge on Itachi? But wasn't I given the task of taking revenge on Itachi? Now it sounds like Itachi's massacre of the clan was also shrouded in mystery, and Natsuo...
His mind was in chaos, feeling a headache!
