I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

"Ah, Lady Tsunade is so scary!" Shizune was trembling all over and didn't dare to step forward. She had nothing to do with this matter at all, and she was the most panicked among the people present.

Ye Lan and Danzo fell silent at the same time. Whoever took action at this moment would be in the wrong.

Killing Danzo is easy, but escaping from Konoha is difficult. Ye Lan would not choose to leave the village unless it was absolutely necessary. Although Orochimaru and Itachi were both S-level rebels and looked fine, they were hiding themselves and behaving like a human being outside.

If Danzo were killed now, he might be buried beside the memorial stone tablet and regarded as a hero by the village. This would be totally not worth it.

"I will send someone to investigate how Aka died. As for advisor Danzo."

Tsunade took a few steps back and forth and made up her mind.

"You are old. Today I just found out that your health has deteriorated so much. You should take a good rest. Let the head of the Hyuga clan take on the position of advisor."

Danzo would never have thought that Tsunade would take advantage of him pretending to be weak. He really couldn't refute this excuse and just looked at his two classmates.

"No!" Mizuto Menen and Utane Koharu said as expected, but there was another person who spoke at this time, and that was Ye Lan.

Tsunade was not surprised by the opposition from the other two advisors, but she did not expect Ye Lan to speak up.

"This old dog deceives his superiors and subordinates, confuses right and wrong, and plays with his power. He is a disaster for Konoha. I suggest that the Hokage expel him from the village forever."

"you you you..."

Danzo didn't expect Ye Lan's remarks to be so explosive, and his already weak body could hardly stand.

Everyone present was shocked by Ye Lan's remarks. It would never come to this extent. This was even more unacceptable than him killing Danzo.

Since the founding of Konoha, there has never been a precedent of being expelled from the village. Most of them defected voluntarily. If I were really expelled from the village, I would be the first person in Konoha's history.

"absurd!"

"Unreasonable!"

The two consultants also reacted and started cursing, but Ye Lan was not angry at all and looked at Tsunade calmly.

Tsunade had a headache, and everyone else would think Ye Lan was joking, but she knew he was serious.

"Don't talk about expelling him from the village. Advisor Danzo was at fault first, and this punishment is too harsh."

"Tsunade! What do you mean I was at fault first? I've already said that Kazuki's death was just an accident. I don't know anything about Sasuke being attacked!"

From Ye Lan's tone, he seemed to be blaming himself for the attack on Sasuke. Not to mention that there was no evidence, even if there was direct evidence, he would not admit it.

In order to achieve his goal of becoming Hokage, he would definitely protect his image in front of others, at least not to give a bad impression to the villagers.

"Heh." Ye Lan was too lazy to waste any more words and sneered. Danzo no longer cared about his face for the sake of power. His refusal to admit anything was very similar to that of some Western politicians in his previous life.

"Even if you really didn't know, as the leader of the Root, you can't escape blame for your subordinates making such a big mistake. You are no longer suitable to stay in the Root."

Tsunade is now cutting off the source of the problem. The position of advisor is not too important to Tsunade. Her ultimate goal is to transfer Danzo away from the Root.

"Tsunade, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate."

Mito Kado En said somewhat embarrassedly that after staying in the Root for some time he had realized that he was not cut out for it. All the ninjas in the Root disobeyed his management, not to mention the Seal of the Eradication of Tongues cast by Danzo. As long as he was not dead, the Root would side with Danzo.

Tsunade looked at Mito Kado En with a look of disappointment. This guy was just a big talker and had no real skills at all. She could only speak.

"Don't worry about that. I will send someone to the root to assist you in management."

Tsunade already had a plan in mind, and she took this opportunity to take control of the situation.

Danzo saw that a few people had decided to abolish his position as the leader of the Root with just a few words, and his heart was bleeding, and he shouted.

"I have shed blood for the village, fought in the Second Shinobi World War, and been injured! And this is how you treat me!"

"Danzo, don't make it too awkward. I agree with Tsunade's decision on this matter. Besides, Tsunade will keep your position as advisor for you."

Utane Koharu was somewhat dissatisfied. Even so, Danzo was still on an equal footing with her. Even a fool could see that Sasuke's matter was all his doing, so why should he be dissatisfied?

"Okay, okay, all of you just wait for me!"

Danzo did not stay here and slammed the door and left. However, as soon as he left the office, the anger on his face disappeared. He snorted coldly and quickly left the Hokage building.

He cannot maintain his current state for too long. Without the suppression of the Sharingan, the Wood Release in his body may go out of control at any time. If it were not for the cooperation with Orochimaru to better suppress it, Danzo would never take the risk.

Next, Tsunade and Mizuto Menen discussed some Root issues, and then sent the other two consultants away. They did not let Ye Lan leave and allowed him to listen in on the entire process.

Ye Lan kept looking in the direction where Danzo left. He felt that things were handled like a child's play, and his intuition told him that all this was just to appease him. In Ye Lan's opinion, Danzo should be sent to prison at the very least, and simply removing him from the position of Root leader was too light a task.

His eyes glanced around imperceptibly, and except for Shizune who was still a little at a loss, everyone else had returned to normal.

Everyone must abide by Konoha's rules. This dogma engraved in the hearts of all Konoha ninjas is now a joke.

Tsunade was still talking to two consultants. Ye Lan didn't wait any longer and opened the office door directly.

"Uchiha Ye Lan?" Tsunade called Ye Lan's full name for once.

"Hokage-sama, I am still feeling a little unwell so I will not accompany you..."

Bang -

The sound of the door closing was not loud, and Tsunade felt a little panicked. She understood that this was Ye Lan's dissatisfaction, but how could she really expel Danzo as Ye Lan said?

When Sasuke saw Ye Lan leaving, he followed without saying a word, without even saying hello to Tsunade. As an Anbu, this was definitely a dereliction of duty.

"The Uchiha clan is still so arrogant!"

Seeing that the two had left, Utane Koharu expressed her thoughts in dissatisfaction. When she wanted to add fuel to the fire, Tsunade raised her hand to interrupt her.

This Hokage is really exhausted both physically and mentally. A rift has already appeared between Tsunade and Ye Lan. This rift is not caused by the characters' personalities, but by the positions where they sit.

There is no way Tsunade would make public the fact that Danzo is colluding with Orochimaru. Such a thing would have too much of a negative impact on the image of the village's top leaders. Would other ninjas still obey their management if they knew about it?

By then, people in Konoha will become panic-stricken, and there may be more bloodshed.

This is something Tsunade cannot allow to happen, as this would only sacrifice the interests of Ye Lan and Sasuke.

...

Evidence? It was a joke to the top leaders of Konoha. Sasuke's matter was hastily resolved, so how could the Uchiha clan's matter be resolved?

If giving it to them is useless, Ye Lan has decided to do something big. From the first time he met Danzo, he understood the old man's desire for power. He did not hide his desire for the position of Hokage.

He wanted to make this matter truly a wishful thinking. He wanted to make sure that Danzo could never sit in that position. This would make him much sadder than killing him.

Ye Lan stared at the scroll hidden on his wrist. Hidden inside was Luo Sha's Impure World Reincarnation technique. He had to hurry and crack this technique.

When Ye Lan lowered his head to think, a shadow appeared in front of him. He spoke without raising his head.

"You coward, you finally come at this time?"
